" Smile Shota is a hidden gem! I tried it for the first time last week and fell in love with their sushi. The fish was fresh, and the rice was perfectly cooked—not too sticky or dry. My friends and I were discussing how great it was to have so many options for AYCE sushi without the typical wait times often found in other places. The service was also top-notch; the staff kept our drinks filled and checked on us often. I am already making plans to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" While our experience was good overall, we faced a couple of hiccups during our visit. The food was tasty, but it did take longer than expected for our orders to arrive. The service was decent, but we felt a bit neglected during the peak hours. The tempura and rolls were delicious but not all items hit the mark; some were just average. The ambiance is nice though, making it a pleasant place to dine. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews, I decided to try Smile Shota, and I was not disappointed! The quality of the fish was top-notch. The sushi had a delightful melt-in-your-mouth factor, and the staff was incredibly polite. The only downside was the wait time on a busy night. We had to wait for about 30 minutes to be seated, which was a bit of a hassle. Despite that, I will return for sure, especially for the amazing dessert options. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Smile Shota was a mixed bag for me. While I enjoyed most of the sushi rolls, the service was slower than expected. I ordered different rolls, but not all were worth their price. Some of their specialty items felt a little overpriced for what came out, especially the taste. The place is clean and pretty, which helped a bit with my overall impression, but I left hoping for a more consistent experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Smile Shota for the first time, and it surely exceeded my expectations. The sushi was unbelievably fresh, with the perfect balance of fish to rice. I especially loved their salmon belly, which just melted in my mouth. The environment was modern and inviting, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends. The staff was attentive, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. I’ll definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to stop by Smile Shota after hearing about it from friends. I have to agree; everything was fresh and delicious! The staff was friendly, and it was nice to see them ensure everyone was satisfied. I particularly enjoyed the seaweed salad as an appetizer. Will definitely recommend this place to others! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dinner at Smile Shota was delightful! Everything from the friendly service to the fresh sushi was perfect. I particularly enjoyed the miso soup - it was seasoned just right! The decor created a lovely dining atmosphere, making it a great place for family gatherings. The AYCE option is also reasonably priced for the quality offered. I will certainly be back with more friends. " (*Curated Review*)
