At Kyo you’ll find standard sushi items like nigiri, rolls, and cones. Sashimi is limited to 6 pieces during lunch. They also have spicy salmon nigiri not common at other AYCE sushi restaurants. There is also a grill similar to Shabusen. Overall Kyo seems fresher and has better quality and portion sizes than Shabusen.
PRICE:
$$ Affordable. Fair Pricing for ALL YOU CAN EAT sushi and BBQ.
QUALITY:
Good. Good balance of rice and fish in rolls, and nigiri. Sushi was made fresh. Fish tasted fresh and not frozen. No funny smells or colors. Nice presentation. Tempura was hot and crispy.
SERVICE:
Good. Friendly. However they are serious about the NO WASTED FOOD and will remind you at the start and question the amount you’re ordering. “Are you sure you can finish it?” They also limit food served unless they see you finish the previous order.
VERDICT:
Overall, SATISFIED. Kyo Korean BBQ and Sushi is a good place to get your fill of AYCE sushi in a nice spacious restaurant.
Is Kyo better than Shabusen? They are similar but Shabusen has gone downhill over the years.
