neverlaysup Posted October 15, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Quick question, I know someone here can answer my question. If I eat at Sushi on 5 and utilize a "dining package" on it, is it basically an All you can Eat sushi restaurant or is it A La Carte only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICCruisers Posted October 15, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Up to $35.00 is covered with the dining package. It’s probably not the best use of the package. They sometimes run a special all you can eat meal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pay for what you want can work well, however, for a light lunch on sea days when the buffet is busy… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLCruiser97 Posted October 15, 2021 #5 Share Posted October 15, 2021 We did this on the EQ last month. We ordered so much food to get to $35pp. The price of food there is not expensive at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted October 15, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I also think using a dining package for Sushi on 5 is not the best utilization of the package. We often dine at Sushi on 5 for lunch on sea days, and the cost for two (not each) is generally $25 to $28. We have the premium beverage package so any alcohol beverage is not reflected in that price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will choose a couple of things to share and a ramen bowl…Ideal for a lunch sea day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshikitty Posted October 15, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) We have often been on Sushi on 5 with a prepaid dining package. Always had ‚ all included‘ but we made sure that this was the case when making the reservations. Lobster Ramen and Wagyu Sliders where our favorites. Truffle Tuna also was phantastic!

susiesan Posted October 16, 2021 #9 Share Posted October 16, 2021 How does the sushi in the restaurant compare to the sushi served in the Oceanview buffet? Typically, sushi on ship buffets is not made with raw fish, usually California rolls or cooked foods. Does Sushi on 5 serve real nigiri and maki rolls made with raw fish?

Northern Aurora Posted October 16, 2021 #10 Share Posted October 16, 2021 It has been a number of years since we've seen sushi in the Ocean View buffet, but we are rarely there in the evenings. If you look at a current Sushi on 5 menu you will see that they indeed serve several varieties of nigiri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zitsky Posted October 16, 2021 #11 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) Last time I was there was about 2 years but it seemed like perfectly normal sushi to me. And quite good. Next time I want to try the pork Ramen. Edited October 16, 2021 by zitsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at a current Sushi on 5 menu you will see that they indeed serve several varieties of nigiri. Yup! Since we can sit and eat without regard to time or amount, my only consideration in deciding how much sashimi I will consume at a couple of lunch visits will be whether I can still get up out of the chair in the end (getting too old for tatami)! Looking for a chance to see if it's possible to OD on Omega 3 😄 Kind of like sitting down in an old fashioned hyaku-yen sushi joint (more like san-hyaku these days) and eating until you can't, except no counting colored plates at the end. @neverlaysup The basics are available for nigiri: Tuna, Yellowtail, Salmon, Octopus, Eel, Shrimp For sashimi: Tuna, Yellowtail, Salmon, Albacore, Shrimp, Octopus, Tataki Tuna (lightly seared) Don't know if you're into sake, but they have one called Ginga Shizuku Junmai Diaginjo. Excellent stuff with a bit more character than some. Runs about $65 on land, if you can find it, so the $110 shipboard price is actually pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susiesan Posted October 17, 2021 #14 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Well that's disappointing. One of the things that keep me cruising on Oceania is fresh sushi every night at Terrace. I will be on the lookout for an all you can eat sushi lunch in Sushi on 5. Oiishiso ne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
