I can not even begging to describe how gross the atmosphere was. The whole place including the bathroom has disgusting write allover it. You walk in and it feels as if im walking into a funeral there is no music playing, the decor is nononexistent. There is a small fountain that is broke and is starting to gather dust and dirt inside. The blue walls have dark spots all over from years of no cleaning it looked like. You enter the restroom (male) and you immediately notice the dirty broken stalls. There is this dry unattractive decoration in the bathroom. You walk into the stalls and you will immediately notice feces stains on the support beam for sitting on the toilet on the walls of the stalls and also the floor which looks like its been there for a few weeks. I immediately wanted to leave when I noticed this. The waitress have are friendly but the cashier has a rude negative vibe. The food looked good enough for what your paying. The cooks regularly come out to add more food to the pots but make you feel very uncomfortable staying there for long periods of time watching you serve yourself. Other than people being attracted to the descent food and good price the rest of the place looks absolutely terrible and disgusting.

Exceeds expectations. Excellent food - Efficient service. Two families, with young, undisciplined children, is the parents responsibility. As a father of a 10 year old, it is my responsibility, not the restaurants ( or for the sake of discussion church or teachers ) to ensure proper manners. Until my son was old enough & properly disciplined, fast food was the place of choice, not a sit down restaurant. Also, I do have previous work experience in a Chinese restaurant... Please refrain from blaming a restaurant for the way children are treated. Chinese elders are quiet, peace loving people. Their children are brought up to respect, not annoy the adults around them. Again, best Chinese buffet outside of Las Vegas... Definately will be back, with my son... We reap what we sow...

I didnt know how good it was till I tried a place closer to my house which had a fake 5 star rating yuck dont ever leave me golden wok the price is good and you can always find coupons if u feel the need to save more the food is great just like any place some things stop moving and obviously doesnt get replaced but with some of the inconsiderate crab leg pos aholes who in two plates kill it for the rest of us in dont blame them for ignoring freshness of unused sides sushi selection is decent oyster buttery side is heavenly seafood never made me sick so this is my go to place and aside from the pricey todai ill stick to this place

They must have change owner or something in the last year or so because there is no way this food is a good as people say it here and frankly its quite expensive. $46 for a family of 4 (2 adults 2 kids) on a weekday is ridiculous! They are very limited on food and it looks like it has been sitting there all day. Its very weird they make you pay after you eat and they make sure you leave a tip. I paid with my card and was leaving cash as tip and the waitress gave me a bad look when i crossed out the tip on the recipe and then left the pad on the table as to make sure I left something on it. Never wasting my money there again.

Old review got taken so keep it short and simple staff is impolite and rushes you to "Hurry up and buy" food is good! But only during a busy hour if you go in when its not busy they will do there absolute best to not make anything else fresh unless they really have no choice always use straws they rinse the cups not wash them also its quanity not quality doesnt matter if you get a full house on your plate or just 1 egg roll once you are on your second plate they will drop the bill and regularly check/stare at you every 3-5 minutes untill you pay and leave this is where the "hurry up and buy" aspect comes in

Staff is horrible they glare at you as you walk in, dont clear plates from the table, dont bring you drink refills (I had to get my own) the food was old yesterdays food that they covered in oil and reheated let cool to the point it was cold and put out for you too eat. To sum up, horrible service,even worse cold terrible tasting food. Im not going there ever again and I highly recommend you dont either.

the food was good, service was great! only problem was we got there at 930pm and they closed at 1030pm so they didnt really have much food left BUT they did offer to cook us something if we wanted something specific lol. we still got charged full price which I thought was a little unfair so I took off one star for that. otherwise, great! Ill definitely go here more often

My wife and I were very happy with the place until we had children. Staff doesnt have any respect for them and you have to ask for silverware, water, fortune cookies, etc for the children or they will not bring them. The food is good and we had ate there for many years prior to deciding not to visit anymore. We still order take out, we just wont eat in.

Went to the sushi bar and literally found a winged insect in the soy sauce Annnd needless to say I didnt even drink there what they called root beer after that then one of the managers told me I didnt see a bug in the soy sauce... Smh DO NOT EAT HERE FOR YOUR OWN HEALTH....The health department needs to do an inspection here seriously..

After a year since I ate here, this place has gone from bad to worse. The food quality is still bad. They charged me up front instead of waiting till I was done with my food. They charge extra if you want to change the soda from root beer to Pepsi. On top of that, they dont seem to be nice to people and they speak broken English.

The selection was great for a local place, actually it was even better than some places in the city. The staff was very friendly and helpful, there is a mongolian bbq as well. I didnt use the restroom but nothing seemed to be disgusting or not maintained. My expectations were surpassed and I would definitely return.

My experience wasnt horrible nor the best. seated immediately, plates cleared quickly. just the food seemed bland.. I tried the house shrimp, was salty for some odd reason.. Mongolian beef was good. tried the sushi, not as good as Hibachi Grill sushi.. I dont think Id come back here. Ill stick to Hibachi.

Awesome. Loved it. Wide variety to choose from. Mmm... yummy... Relaxed atmosphere any time of the day. Music volume is properly low enough, yet sufficiently audible, so as to provide a background, and not to intrude. Friendly staff, awesome food. Go there every week. ...

Not allowed to sit where I wanted. Food overwarmed and fortune cookie so stale I couldnt break it. Ice cream was runny. Hardly anyone in restaurant at 6 pm on a Saturday. I havent been here for a while and was looking forward to going. I wont be back again.

The Food was terrible. The fried shrimp were not even deveined! They items were extremely limited and had no flavor. Also they only serve Pepsi products, that is not a negative just a heads up if you have a preference.
