What People Are Saying About Todai Restaurant
The Editor
Robyn Galbos
Citysearch
In Short – The first Todai Restaurant debuted in 1985 in Santa Monica, Calif., and has since opened in locations across the U.S. and in Hong Kong. The restaurant, with seating for up to 500 people, features a 160-foot seafood buffet offering more than 40 kinds of sushi, all made fresh. The salad selection ranges from Caesar to seaweed to red potato salad. Hot entrees include sukiyaki, teriyaki chicken, sweet-and-sour pork and udon noodles.

Thorough Seafood Buffet with Good Value
by misterkevin at Citysearch
Todai is always a treat. The variety of seafood is very good. From chilled shrimp, tempura shrimp & jumbo whole shrimp, to delicious dungeness crab, it's a big buffet. This isn't Four Seasons quality, nor is it an extravagant price for what you get. The variety of sushi rolls is good, and it includes some specials like salmon skin rolls, dragon rolls and dynamite rolls. You can order a hand roll to order, too! There were three sashimi options- salmon, tuna & tilapia, all tasty. There is also a variety of mussels, both cold and hot. The seaweed salad is delish, and there was a good ceviche option, too. There is a nice dessert buffet with delicious walnut tarts, mini crème brûlées, creme puffs and a crepe station. This is a cafeteria atmosphere and the service isn't grand, but I go back again and again for the variety and decent quality at a price you can't find anywhere.
- Pros: Unlimited Unagi, Snow Crab, Dungeness Crab, Oysters
- Cons: Cafeteria atmosphere, Perfunctory Service

Can I give it ZERO STARS?
by DVick at Citysearch
Here are the facts:
* $30 per person for dinner
* Pizza and sliced ham
* Sushi made by Mexicans
* School cafeteria environment
* Zero service
* Bathroom stench permeates buffet
* Run by a bunch of cheap Koreans
The last point explains a lot. Avoid this dump.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Everything

Too Expensive
by fsmith09 at Citysearch
Very expensive buffet for lunch, food is not that great either. Either you love or hate sushi, and the sushi here is pretty low grade, sushi lovers will be disappointed.
- Pros: Baby Desserts
- Cons: Sushi and other "Food"
