The prices here are a dollar or two more a person than other smaller buffets, but this place has the largest selection of cuisine under one roof. There is a large selection of sushi rolls and nagiri, there is a cold meat and salad partition, there is also an assortment of dumplings and buns. Next to that is a grill for your own constructing pleasure. And still more there are buffets of the typical mixes of meat and veggies found in more standard chinese buffets, but these include a few special things like softshell crabs and prawns, or frog legs and calimari. Its always a treat to come here and I drive a long way to do so. Theyre always a little slow on getting the bill to the table, but I dont mind the wait after having such delicious food. The sushi roll selection is always very ambitious, so expect lots of fillings and toppings and dressings on these guys. Nagiri is the typical range of fish including eel and muscle, and I think also octopus. Watch what time of day you go, it will always be fresher during the main rushes.

I am a road warrior who travels 100% of the time. I search out sushi buffets wherever I go. As a result, I am frequently disappointed. Many of these buffets border on inedible. This place is not one of those. There is no fishy smell anywhere - the fish is fresh. They even have good sashimi. The selection is awesome. I didnt count but they must have had 50 different types of sushi including both nigeri and rolls. I counted 12 different types of dim sum. And I didnt get close to trying the many Chinese entrees. They looked great but there was just no room. Well, I did make room for some (ok, a lot) of my favorite sesame balls. They were great. Not hard as rocks like many buffets. The service was as good as you can expect in a buffet. My drink was kept filled and empty plates were removed as necessary. My only complaint is that most of the items I tried were not labeled so I had no idea what I was trying. Bottom line is that this is one of the best sushi buffets I have ever tried. I cant wait to return.

I visited this buffet place to have my lunch using my 1 hour lunch time today. It was very horrible experience that Ive never had at any kinds of restaurants in my whole life. There were pretty many people who want to pay for their food, and be sited. So I just asked politely if I needed to be waiting for a long time since I didnt have that much time. The woman named Tiffany at the front desk was terribly rude, disrespectful and made fun of me with another customer & other employees. She even kept following me to insult me when I was helping myself with the food. It was unbelievable. The manager named Paul didnt do anything even when he was watching her yelling at me in front of him. I had to leave without having lunch, and just wasting my time being insulted there. It was really terrible experience that I wont forget.

Coworkers and I visit for lunch once or twice a month. There are some good things and some not-so-good things. For starters, youre not going to find better sushi for $10. I was wary at first too, but it is shockingly decent (though obviously you will find higher quality and more variety at a real sushi bar). If youre not a sushi person, the chinese food is OK, though not the best Ive had. Stay away from anything deep fried, it all tastes the same - like stale fryolator grease. Their lame excuse for miso soup is similarly awful. They have some dishes with ingredients like octopus, tripe, etc. so if you are food curious, you can try things that make most Americans squirm. The desserts are decent, but typical.

Ok, so Im grading this on a curve of what you can expect from a Chinese Buffet, which in my experience, is extremely little. That said, wow, this was impressive. First off: dim sum. And not just a few boring things - trays of really interesting goodies. Next up: sushi. I have a no-sushi-at-Chinese-restaurants-especially-buffets rule, but there was some solid B- quality sushi here. Heading over to the main tables, there were the usual General Tsos Chicken and friends, but there was also a good selection of more authentic treats. The surprising number of ethnic Chinese eating was a testament to the fact that this isnt your usual buffet. Nicely done.

Decent food, terrible service. The staff was frantic, pushy, and borderline rude. I had to ask multiple times for a pop refill, which they seemed to not appreciate accommodating (and looked as if they were tempted to charge more for) as my server continually passed my table without so much as a word...but she was quick to throw the bill at me, and as soon as they saw my credit card they grabbed it...all while still not refilling my drink. Again, the food was decent enough, but not for the rather high price and lackluster service to match. This place may be worth visiting occasionally, but you will walk out planning to not return for a while.

I liked it a lot at the beginning, but I found out that it is again quite similar type of restaurant as others. Most foods are very salty and you can feel that from drinking a whole glass of water after you come home from there. They seemed investing money on some TV ad, and they are urge to make more money, even charged extra $2.50 for my 2 y.o. child for buffet, and all my child had was a small cup of ice cream. Overall, quite expensive and not worth it if you are not a fan of tasting variety of seafood. Sushi is still not as good as a real japanese restaurant.

This buffet was 19.99 on the weekend that I went with my husband and our two friends. We live up north so we were impressed with the variety and quantity of food! They had a wide selection of sushi, Chinese food, salad and some American stuff (pizza) as well as some interesting options such as chicken feet and octopus cooked several different ways. There was also 8 different kinds of ice cream, fruit and some cookies/cake. The staff were very attentive and everything seemed clean and the bathrooms were fine. We will definitely be going back. :)

Wow! The selection is awesome! We came here a lot when I was pregnant. We recently brought our son for his 4th birthday and it was awesome. Think: a runway full of food. This is like no Chinese buffet youve ever been to before. Its diverse and authentic (think: hand rolled sushi, xiaolong bum, and chicken feet) and fun and familiar (think: orange chicken, pizza and egg rolls) they also have a huge selection of deserts, a Mongolian BBQ, a giant bar with authentic Asian liquors and beers, and they treat everybody like royalty. 5 stars.

My experience was unsatisfactory, the manager was rude and talk to my party of 7 as if our money and presences wasnt important. We were followed around the buffet like we were incapable of making a plate. The food how ever was satisfactory it could have been a little more variety. I probably will visit again to see if the experience will be more acceptable. The manager my have been having a bad day, which does not excuse the way he treated us. Date of visit 04/30/2016 time lunch time before 3:30pm.
