Baton Rouge:

I've had Nagoya and Sushi Masa lunch buffet recently. I was rather unimpressed with Masa.

Maybe 4/5 for Nagoya
3/5 for Masa.

Anywhere else(buffet) I should try?

I wouldn't eat sushi off of a buffet unless you're a fan of food poisoning.

You are playing Russian roulette with food poisoning going to those places. Take it from a man whose last trip to Nagoya caused him to skip the St. Patrick's Day parade in favor of vomiting, sweating and being parked on the toilet.

This sucks considering Masa isn't a buffet

Just don't understand the buffet culture , there is no buffet food I wouldn't rather have a higher quality meal of at a normal restaurant.

Unless you are a college student eating a pizza buffet, grow up and eat like an adult.

How many rolls do you eat at one of these typically? It can't be much less expensive that just going to a nice sushi place and ordering 3 rolls on your own.

Nagoya is good for certain things. The frog legs are some of the best I've ever had. The large peel and eat shrimp are good too provided they don't overcook them.

However, I've tasted the Saba nigiri sushi twice...once going down and again coming up. This isn't the place you want to go for quality sooshee.

I don't pretend to know what constitutes as quality sushi by any means, but Teppanyaki offers a pretty good variety of sushi, Chinese food, and hybrid dishes.

My girlfriend who has worked at Hello Sushi for nearly two years and who eats sushi regularly said she thought Teppanyaki was better than Sushi Masa.

However, a coworker of mine laughed at her remarks.

Nagoya
Kaminari Sushi and Hibachi (It's been more than a couple of years since I've eaten here.)
Tippenyaki


Of these three, in my experience of actually eating at the buffets, Nagoya has the best sushi buffet.

I like Tippenyaki. Their sushi is OK, but I don't go there just for the sushi. Also, you will see a lot of Asians eating at Tippenyaki. So they have that going for them.

I haven't been back to Kaminari. I think Nagoya is better and it's more convenient for me. Other than location, I don't have anything against it. Assuming it hasn't degraded over the years.

Nagoya


Went to this place once and they had a shrimp dish mislabeled as chicken something or other.

I took one bite and realized they'd fricked up, but still ended up in the ER.

I enjoy Nagoya after a tough audit when I just want to eat as much sushi as possible.
