Osechi

Osechi (formerly Dozo Sushi and Sake Bar)

 
Inside the restaurant - very snazzy!

 
The All-You-Can-Eat Sushi menu! Quite a lot of choices (approx 120+)

Getting ready for All You Can Eat Sushi!

Orechi has all the typical AYCE sushi offerings and a few different ones including fresh oysters (which they limited to Fridays and Weekends and one Oyster per person). The oysters were nicely done. A fun experience for anyone who hasn't every tried it - the texture and taste is very different from cooked oysters and pretty refreshing.

Salmon Sashimi and Spicy Salmon Sushi 

Tinier portions than what we were used to, but that could also be a good thing since that also means we waste less (in case we can't finish everything we ordered). The salmon sashimi was fresh.
Shrimp tempura
Nicely battered and crisp & crunch on the outside and the shrimp was nicely done. The tempura sauce was pretty good and we were very tempted to double dip.

The rolls we ordered: Asian Roll, Red Dragon, Golden Dragon, Spider roll. The most notable roll was the Golden Dragon with thin slices of mango on top and mango sauce. The spider roll was ok - I thought the soft shell crab wasn't crispy enough.

Round 2 of the rolls we ordered - the dragon roll at the bottom wasn't as tightly wrapped as our first sushi roll plate. And I think the other roll was the Volcano roll.

Golden Dragon and Green Dragon (we really love our Dragon rolls)

Unagi hand roll

Fish....and tuna and salmon sashimi. 
The Sashimi portions were kinda tiny - but it also meant we could eat more!

Dessert of mango ice cream and mango pudding with evaporated milk (not a fan of the mango pudding)

For $23 (excl. tax and tip) for AYCE sushi, it was ok. We got a coupon from the Newspaper for 10% off (which made it a bit better), but I just wasn't really feeling the sushi here.
