  • looking a gift horse in the mouth

    Okay, so I have a new love for a place called Simply Sushi in downtown. They have a deal where you can get all you can eat sushi for only $14.95.
    Now, they do have 5 conditions for getting that price,
    At one hour, you are cut off, you want to keep ordering you have to buy another hour.
    You must eat all your rice.
    If you have more than one roll left over when you are finished you have to pay the ala carte price for it.
    You can only order off of page one of the menu (basic sushi)
    and you cannot share with non-all you can eaters (if two people are each ordering all you can eat, by all means please share amongst yourselves).

    Oh, you can see where this can go wrong.
    I went in today, and I was there for an hour (I paid for it, I'm using it damnit )
    As I was coming in there was a man at the register who was upset that he was getting charged for the extra roll he hadn't eaten (they do pack it up for you to take home, so it's not as if they are charging you for stuff you can't eat).
    Another couple in the restaurant was upset about being told their hour was up, and a gentleman down the bar from us was upset he couldn't eat premium sushi.

    Seriously people, you are getting all you can eat sushi for $14.95. Most sushi places will charge you that for only a couple of rolls, much less all you can eat. Stop complaining about a good thing before they realize just how great of a deal it is and stop offering it.

      no, it is an actual fresh made to order sushi place (but you can order as much as you want, as long as you follow the aforementioned rules).

        NICE. Yeah, I count a good place as paying that much for a single fahncy roll (yes that was an accent )

          Sounds wonderful! Wish they had that near me. Best I get is one of the local sushi places doing half-price night. The place ends up being a zoo, and it's so loud (aka: T-R-E-N-D-Y), that I don't go that often....

            there's a place near by that does something very similar. There's no time limit. But say there is 2 of you, you're writing your order on one chart-sheety-thingy, and if you leave any behind, you leave it or take it home for 50 cents a piece.

                Okay, so for those who were wondering, I found their website (so you salt laker's looking for a good deal, or those of you who will pass through Salt Lake).
                Simply Sushi
                And, my memory was a little off for the rules, but I got most of them right
                (the only eating off page one is really the 6th unwritten rule)

                  that would be awesome and i wouldn't have a problem with the rules ever; they use mango!

                  sadly, i don't think i'll be heading that way any time soon.

                  so awesome, is so envious...

                    Want...not too many places in South Florida that I know of with good and cheap sushi. This Chinese buffet by my house does some sushi and edamame with their usual Chinese cuisines, but the rates differ depending if you come in during lunch or dinner.

                      I will totally pass that address on to my husband.

                      The all you can eat place I go to is awesome, too. It costs more and is only for lunch on Saturday, but it seems to cover everything but the ultra-premium sushi.

                        mmm sushi

                        actually it sounds a lot like some of the bars in japan.
                        there's an hourly price for happy hour and you can drink as much as you want from the happy hour menu. drinks from other menus cost separately. plus there's often a cover charge (which they ignore if they recognize you as a gaijin who doesn't cause trouble )

                        course you can't take any home tho. lol...


                        i miss sushi. *cry*

                          No all you can eat sushi around here I'm aware of but there are a couple of the conveyor belt type sushi places where you pick your plate off an assembly line and it's charged by the plate per what color it is. Also there is an asian buffet that does everything for a flat price..expensive but it is all you can eat.
