Sushi Boat Town

I never really find many sushi boat restaurants anymore (but a similar concept is being spread with kura with their conveyor system), but this one in south san jose is still one if the traditional sushi boat restaurants you'd find in the mid 2000's to mid 2010's! You can choose to sit around the sushi boats or sit at a booth as you wish. Like all other sushi boat restaurants, you grab little plates of sushi and depending on the plate it was served on, that was the price. Prices of sushi on the boats ranged from $4.30 to $10. On a lunch day like this, not too many sushi were on the boats unfortunately... maybe it might be more popular at dinner or weekends. If the sushis on the boat dont appeal too well, there are many more options available through their huge menu! There are teriyaki plates to bento boxes to even a unique burrito sushi roll style dish! I ordered a bento box and the beef tasted pretty good minus the sauce which felt flat. It came with soup and salad and rice as well as a orange and dumpling! The main highlight of the bento box though was the tempura! It was really crispy and well breaded and fried! I loved the sauce it came with as well! $20 Service was very minimal and most interaction i had was just the payment as soon as i was done. But the place seemed to be well staffed and got around to anyone needing refills, etc. Overall it was a pretty good experience! Although the bento box kinda felt a little overpriced...

Prices are up significantly post COVID and due to inflation. It's been awhile since we've been here. The food has always been consistent. It's very good. Service at the table was not great as we had to go find the server even when we were ready to pay. It wasn't busy at the time either. We had a party of 16.

First time going, I was seated right away. I ordered a "sashimi regular" dinner that included soup, salad, and three types of fish. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. I had my dinner with hot sake. Service was prompt and friendly. I went there a second time a couple of days later and had a similar experience as the first time. I will be returning.
