Not the best buffet, but certainly not the worst. Wide variety of Asian dishes, including a sushi bar, as well as some western dishes thrown in for good measure. The sushi bar is mostly rolls (California Roll base with additional toppings), as well as a couple other items. The rest of the buffet is rather large, including a carving station during dinner hours. The food is mostly average, and based on current pricing worth a try (Currently, they are having a 4th anniversary discount - November 2016 - under the normal pricing, I would only recommend the lunch buffet). The dessert bar has a half a dozen items including a chocolate fountain, but again, I would rate it average.

Food is okay. Many selections. What i didnt like was the cashier. Very rude and over charged me for my son. Fare warning. If you have a child that is tall for his age, they will charge for him as an adult. 55" or taller. My sons hair reached to their 55" height (his hair was puffy that day) i even showed her that he didnt reach the height by pressind his hair down. She still charged me for him as an adult. To make it worse he didnt eat much. The reason why waiters are rude is because they already charge you for gratuity at the door. So either way you already payed for their service even tho they are rude.

Very good food, everything was fresh and delicious, refreshing lemonade and great coffee, nice place. But Im rating it with only 3 stars because of their service, the staff is rude and treat you like if youre not paying for your food. Id rather have a not so good meal but an excellent and friendly customer service. Smiles are free, someone must tell this guys. The only friendly and polite one, was a slim, tall guy, I think hes Hispanic, he came a couple of times to take the plates from our table and he was nice and kind. The others, not good at all.

Not sure why "seafood" is in the title of this place. These guys used to be fantastic years ago, theyve since gone downhill. Theres what I like to call fake sushi rolls and a cold shrimp dish around their dessert area, thats pretty much all the seafood they have. Everything else is just random low quality food. Gone are their days of real sushi, sashimi, and crab legs. I was there for dinner and NONE of these items were to be found. We did enjoy the $9.99 pitcher of Sapporo, the rest of food was like from a cheap strip mall Chinese take out joint.

Been coming here in the past when the emphasis on seafood made the trip worthwhile. Since then, ownership has changed and made the place more like a Chinese buffet with less emphasis on seafood. Sushi has less raw fish, and fried foods consume the choices. One saving grace is their teppanyaki grill which has steak and fish during both lunch and dinner. With the current lunch price of $7.99, the grill alone is worth the trip. Not sure if Id say the same for dinner ($10.99) as the menu items dont really change noticeably. Id stick with lunch.

First of all this place is crazy expensive for the type of food they serve here. We came here on a Tuesday and even though there wasnt very many people we never got our drinks refilled or our plates removed until I went up to the counter to ask if there was only one waiter on the floor that night. The lady quickly removed our plates and refilled our glasses. The food looked as it had been sitting there for a while. Looked old. Also the people behind the food counter stares you down. All in all our experience there was horrible.

Worst Asian buffet Ive been to, no real seafood, overpriced, dirty, deserts forget it once you visualize the choices you will pass as I observed most people did, sat at a table about 30 feet away from the restrooms but it smelled like we were in the restrooms and dont make the mistake I did and actually use the restroom there go somewhere else, actually have to pay first with 10% tip included (that was a red flag), very stressful because they charge you for the food you can not eat, I dont know how they survive, stay away!

Food is getting lousy. It was great when it first opened. Service is still good and thats for the one star on the rating. The lady in the cashier didnt accept the gift card that was given to me by a friend. She said they do not have the machine/equipment to process it. Lame excuse! Their credit card machine is working. And thats how I paid with the whole amount. They didnt even give me a discount for the inconvenience. If you plan to come to this place with a gift card to use, I suggest you dont. Dont bother.

When we first started going here, when they first opened, the food, the service everything was amazing. HOWEVER. Now they have people pay before they enter, they are rude and we have gotten sick the last few times we ate there. Sadly, not nearly as good as it was when it first opened. We gave it many chances, at least 3 times after the first bad experience, but 3 times, you fooled me!

I generally dont like buffet places because of how poor the quality the food is, and this place isnt an exception. Walking through each stand left my slightly disgusted by the presention of the food. Nothing really tasted fresh or tasty in particular, but their yogurt machine did provide some comfort after sampling everything. I dont think Ill ever be back.

This place is not that good... Vegas Seafood Buffet was way better!!! Maybe because of time I came but a lot of cakes were old and I could not even bite it!!! Anyway, banana pudding was awesome)) Seafood were fine but there were many empty trains with no food. Idk maybe they were only for dinner food.... Chocolate fountain was cold!!!! that killed me!!!!!

The foos variety is good and our server was too but the cashier however didnt get off of her super important phone call to welcome us at about 2pm when it wasnt busy and not even a thank you on the way out. Also, the 10% gratuity is included in every bill. This rating is for our server and the food.

Im really like to go to this buffet. Is clean spacious, has variety of incredible oriental food. Kid friendly. I go very often and always leave happy and satisfied. The childrens price for the buffet is reasonable to the proportion a child eats. I think Wednesdays is discount day

Not a bad buffet experience. Its pretty cheap and there are a lot of selections. They range from Chinese food, sushi, some American food, Mongolian BBQ, seafood and assorted desserts. The service was pretty decent when it came to getting drinks refilled and clearing plates.

Really like the food choices. Wish they had better options for desserts. Hot crab and shrimp are delicious. Service is not dependable. We were forgotten on several of our last visits until we asked another waiter for refills. They gave my father a birthday discount.

I saw very few choices of what i would like to eat and in most cases not the best taste of the food. Unfortunately this is pretty close ranking with the worst buffets i have been. I would not come back here.
