What people say, in short
Midori is recommended across its Valley outlets, with Sherman Oaks repeatedly named. Supporters describe satisfying all-you-can-eat meals and good value; a long-time diner singles out the yellowtail and salmon while stopping short of calling it the best sushi overall. Some praise is explicitly retrospective. Dissent includes too much rice in the rolls, comparisons favoring other all-you-can-eat restaurants, and a disappointing visit that ended a former regular's custom.
