Kirin II

If you like sushi but are on a budget or in a hurry, try Kirin II. It is a buffet restaurant with some traditional Chinese buffet items as well as Japanese items (including a number of varieties of sushi). I've never ordered off the menu, but the buffet is pretty good. Buffet sushi is usually pretty bad, but Kirin II's sushi is pretty good (though freshly made would still be better). The lunch buffet is only about $15 while dinner is more expensive (but I believe it has more seafood).

The only disadvantage of Kirin II is that it is located at FM 1960 and 249, so it's a bit of a drive for people in town. But I'm always happy to meet people there for lunch!

Check their hours as they are closed from about 3 to 5 in the afternoon.
