Kiku Sushi & Grill

McKinney/ 1751 Eldorado Pkway/Eldorado Crossing Center/ 972-548-8887

Kiku is our new favorite all-u-can-eat sushi buffet. Only 40 days young, the headset donned staff at Kiku are eager to please and serve their customers. The all-u-can-eat buffet at an introductory price of only $19.99 for dinner is a breathtaking display of sushi rolls of the more expensive variety and large slices of sashimi, plus plenty of grilled and cooked items for those who prefer cooked sustanance. The immaculately kept buffet overflowed with savory items like large shrimp, king crab legs, red clam, mussels, baby octopus, snow crab legs, oysters, beef items and shabu shabu. There’s no skimping here. A first for me was jelly fish salad. It’s nice to know that those dastardly jelly fish are good for something! For dessert a lovely display of fresh fruit, and ice cream flavors like red bean, green tea and mango. Kiku means chrysanthemum in Japanese. This motif is carried throughout to the lovely décor. Chrysanthemum tea is also available. Ranked against other sushi all-u-can-eat buffets that we have frequented, notably Osaka in Plano, our former favorite, and Tokyo One in Addison, Kiku is better. Lunch buffets are $12.99 but contain fewer of the more expensive items found during dinner. Yankees Eat Rating = 4/Very Good
