First off, this place has no air conditioning. It was well over 80°F, and a number of guests were complaining about the stuffy heat. They have one fan - ONE FAN. and its over by the entrance. Pointing up at the ceiling. What are they trying to do, cool the lava which has hardened to become the ceiling? So we sit down, and the tables sticky. The chairs are sticky. The soy bottle is sticky. The bathroom floor is sticky - EVERYTHING is sticky! We were in for a sticky situation. I happened to step into the restroom before and after cleaning. It was almost as if the cleaning lady had simply flushed the toilets and swept the floor. It stunk, the toilets had a ring of crud around them, ya know, gunky bathroom stuff. So then we get to the food. Its...bad. I mean, the sushis great, but the gummy meat is all cold and undercooked. The fish tastes kinda weird. We ordered some tea and got this really diluted tea-water. We ask for another one. We get basically the same thing. Definitely not high qualitea. Its still really hot and stuffy, my moms sweating up a storm. I had to use the condensation from my cup to put on my face to cool down. Its like a sauna. Honestly. Im getting sleepy. Am I cooking? Are these people secretly trying to cook and eat us unassuming humans? Is this a government-concealed alien plot!? As if it werent bad enough, the TV is on. Youd THINK they could put on something, oh you know, decent and family-friendly. Nah. Weve got a murder mystery with blood and guts and bodies and someone got raped and theyre detailing the evidence. Yup. All while youre trying to eat your cold, gummy chicken. Which is probably human. Oh, and dont even think about trying to get napkins. Theyre so paper-thin and jammed so hard into that little tin container that youre better off making confetti. Kinda reminiscent of those cat videos where the angry desperate cat is shredding the toilet paper. Itd be great if they could learn how to clean the floor, too. Theres crumbs, trash, half-chewed candy, crumpled up little bits of stuff here and there. You know, theres something called a broom. They use it all over the United States? Yeah, its sweeping the nation. Welp, thats that. I dont think were coming back. Wouldnt recommend it. Its a shame, too, because their sushi is actually pretty good for a buffet.

I dont want to be completely bias because there were somethings we liked. First off, all chicken products should have been cooked longer, they were to soft and alot were chewy. The flavor was ok though. Fish was actually ok to me as well and i dont really eat fish. Prices were ok. We dont do buffets so i dont have anything to compare it to. When we got to the desert section, we were very displeased. Stuff tasted either nasty from lack of flavor or just old. Another problem is even there pudding and Jello was hot. But what made the whole experience bad was the fact that they had a sigh that said excessive food waste will be charged and that either the owner manager or who ever the guy was, just stared at our every move. Weather we got something from the line or just went to the bathroom every second it seemed like we were being watched excessively. This was the first and last time we will have gone.

i had my experience there and as i went with a friend. It as my first visit and i enjoyed every bite i had. I got to know that this place has a new ownership. I cannot compare it with the previous one but the current owners are very pleasing. The food is freshly cooked and the food trays are never empty that shows, that cooks are so quick in maintaining good speed of work.Cleanliness is superb and theres so much to eat in such an affordable price. I was going through other reviews here and i scratched my head !!!! and is it REALLY !!!! how can people lie and write false statements. The staff there is on toes all times and i dont see any drawbacks. Iam truly glad i made a visit there and had my own experience rather believe reviews here. Amazing food, place, staff, ambiance, service. Highly recommended for enjoying the complete package.

Today was my first and last time coming here. Me and my family walked in and the place felt creepy and there was only 2 families having dinner. Some of the food was not fresh at all. Well almost everything. I only ate what was fresh. But after seeing one of the employees eat from there I felt a little better. And I always check that there is an A. On our way out they had a B on the corner of the wall where no one will see it. I will not be going back. Please dont waste your time here. Run for your life! Lol! Oh yeah and I liked the way the steam came out the food and it wasnt even fresh. Im guessing during lunch its fresher, I hope. But dinner should be fresh also. We went around 6. I will be going back to Happy Buffet instead. But other than that the 2 employees that helped us were very friendly, thank you.

They have the worst staff and food here. I was pretty upset how rude they were to us. Group of us went here to celebrate getting our truck driving permit. It just was the worst experience we had. My classmate order a refill for his drink couple times they wouldnt come. They finally take his drink and come back with a greasy cup. My classmate was kind enough to tell him if the waiter can bring a clean cup. The waiter does that and kinda roughly gives him the cup and it spills on my classmate. It was just unexpected my classmate almost lost it he was just about to throw that cup to his face. So we left that place we werent satisfied at all.

I cant deny that I like the food here. But this last time I went to this BUFFET, it blew me away, due to the fact that the restaurant is disgusting. Last time I went I told them that they need to clean the restroom. The restroom made me sick to my stomach. The toilet has rings around them, even the urinals. The floor was dirty, and most disgusting,.... The bloody buggers on the walls and bloody blow out on the walls. How can they get a A rating when the place is this dirty. On the grade card I saw something to clarify my suspicions, not being races, but the expert who rated them is also Asian. Im sorry but I will never come here anymore.

The service was okay, but some trays were at room temperature. The fried rice was almost cold. One fish stick was fine, and then another had an array of 12+ bones in it. The broccoli beef seemed to have much more broccoli than beef. I avoid sushi so no comment there. No ice cream, just the usual buttered butterfly cookies and bite-size chocolate square cake deserts that all Chinese restaurants have here. There was a nice battered shrimp and tender white fish, but the overall effort put into the food just felt low/inconsistent. Maybe a Friday night would be better than this Tuesday late afternoon.

I was a customer for couple year. Was a great place to eat in the area. but today may 28 /2017 was my last visit. The quality of the food is very low. Taste like nothing and some plates are not warm enough. Just for that I not going back to eat there but the worst part today I notice the art on the dish was weird. Then the second dish same weird design and I scratch with my napkin and SURPRISE was dried food. Then I take another plate and was the same. I bring it to the lady at the cashier. So. They need a new dishwasher machine , dishwasher guy. And new management.
