The food is served buffet style and is passable for such kind of fare...expect a bit of diarrhea afterward due to the inordinate amount of sodium and grease. The servers are okay but seem too eager to clear out your table even while youre still eating. Make sure that you get your receipt so you can show proof of payment. We paid in cash and even left the server a decent tip...told her to keep the change and started heading out. They rudely stopped us on our way out, accusing us of not paying. After I explained where we sat and how we have already paid, they just waved us to the door and said, "okay, okay." Very rude service in my book...we wont be back. They need to train their servers and cashiers to be more organized and to be more polite towards their customers.

I encountered several stale items in this buffet (crag rangoon, spring rolls). This gave me the impression that many of the items were being recycled. I woke up the next day with serious diarrhea and a sore stomach. These symptoms persisted throughout the first day after. I am currently in Day #2 after the meal. I still have constant diarrhea and stomach pains. In addition, I am alternating between fever and chills. I have not been able to eat much or exercise since my encounter with Ginger Buffet. Based on an analysis of what I ate that day, I have no doubt that the trip to Ginger Buffet was the cause of my illness. Once my illness runs its course, I will certainly report Ginger Buffet to St. Clair health dept. and may consider legal action. Buyer beware!

Awesome selections! Food was exceptional- thoroughly enjoyed the fresh and well seasoned dishes. Bus boys are constantly at your table collecting dishes, only negative, they didnt offer our senior discount like sign says, and tea charge was $2.00 per person/a bit steep in my book! We will return if n neighborhood again!

Poor quality of food, the food on the buffet was old and the Buffett its self wasnt clean. The service was a poor as I asked for fresh food and the waiter said calmly, yea maybe later. Uggh I will never come back and will tell my friends and family not to waste their time!!!

One of my favorite places. Today they had crab legs, shrimp,mussels, and clams all you could eat. $12 bucks. They have sushi bar thats included plus a grill where they cook your raw stuff you pick out. Everything that is supposed to hot is. A hidden gem

Horrible customer service. Closing time rolled by and at 930 in the dot they begin to tell customers that it is time for them to close. Then had the nerve to ask for a tip. .so I wrote on the receipt DONT RUSH CUSTOMERS. Will not be returning.

If you leave this place hungry its your own fault.its the best oriental buffet in Fairview.From Crab Legs to Cajun crawfish they have it all and extremely reasonable in my opinion but just take my word you wont be sorry you stopped.

Good place overall. Bathrooms are clean and the waiters are boss. Not a very good food selection but a buffet is a buffet. All in all, great place to eat due to the fact that it is not crowded.

For an Asian buffet this has it all, including a soft serve machine. The sushi is better than Hokkaido, though the fried breaded items were all too tough. Overall a great Asian buffet.

We pass several other Chinese restaurants and drive from another city just to eat here. Buffet is well stocked, lots of delicious options and really good sushi.

If you have a peanut allergy dont go here. They lie about what they cook in.. Boyfriend puked his whole meal uP after and is broke out in hives for past 2 days.

One of the best Chinese/Japanese buffets Ive been to. Love the crab rangoons and honey chicken. You can order off the menu too. Looks nice inside.

Good food selection and staff is friendly. If you are looking for a buffet to go to this place is worth it. Only downfall is the holiday prices.

Food is hit or miss. At times it can be delicious, other times its rather a mushy rubbery experience. Place is nice, is say a solid C+.

Food was fresh when I was there because they were busy. I got my moneys worth and it was pretty good food. Service was decent as well.

The reason why the place was o.k was that when me and my mother came they exuded us of stealing but the food is great.

Some of the best Lo Mein and crab Rangoon. Pro Tip go around usual meal times for best experience (ie 12p and 5p)
