Im sorry I spent my money on this Groupon! This was a sorry excuse for a buffet! They WILL NOT get another $ from me EVER! The selection of food was horrible ex - whole crabs & no crab legs REALLY.. No type of dishes to choose from - thats what a buffet is - RIGHT?.. None of the food taste right - not even the yellow rice since thats the only rice they had! No shrimp to eat without taking off head & legs - hot & cold! Utensils werent on table they are out by buffet - not sanitary at all! Even the drinks were watered down - unbelievable! There shouldnt be bones in chicken & broccoli - NOPE! No sauces for table - too cheap maybe - but the soy sauce & duck sauce & hot mustard & hot sauce were all in packets by buffet - I didnt order take out this was dine in! The food looked like it hadnt been changed - the top of cake (frosting was melting) nothing was stirred by workers! Flies was all on food & brownies! This is unacceptable! Names werent on all foods so it already looks horrible but now I dont know what the horrible is! Its a shame I cant get my money back cause I want it back! They cant possibly understand what a buffet means! There was 6 in our group & not 1 of us was pleased with presentation - food - desert - table! NOTHING! We didnt want to tip waiter cause she wasnt even on top of her job - which isnt much but removing plates & bringing drinks! Drinks are $2+ - Im not paying for ice or watery tea thats not sweet! They had a dry been sitting out roast beef that you cut yourself - ugh & remember no sauces! Bottom line is this - This place chooses the cheapest option to feed you! Youre paying more then its worth! Cheap options - whole crabs instead of legs - not using boneless chicken - not taking head & shell & dam legs off shrimp - seeded grapes instead of seedless - we arent sure it was even real chicken or beef - remember no names - but it tasted funny! We didnt have much on our small plates they had cause their wasnt much to choose from & no seconds! Fruit options were oranges - peaches from can - melon - undone banana pudding - chocolate pudding! Dry hard cookies - SMH! I told you about the brownies & cake already! Never Again & Im contacting their corporate office! Im leaving this feedback to possibly help someone else who enjoys a good buffet to not waste your time AND money here! Its because people are nasty & eat anything that this place is still open! DONT EAT HERE!

If you wanted to kill a pig you would feed it most the food on this buffet. 90% is fried garbage with sodium content that will rot your gut. But there is the 10% of the food that is worth eating and for a reasonable price. The grill guy does some good work and the sushi guy, while always talking on his hands fee cell phone, offers some decent fare. Dont know about the purple haired woman but rest of employees seem fine. Bottom line, fast and easy but be discerning about what you choose to eat or your waistline and aorta will pay the price.

The waitress with the purple hair is one of the rudest people Ive ever met. After i finished my plate she took it away quickly and i continued to go to grab another plate to return to other people sitting at my table. Thankfully the host saw me,escorted me to a different seat and told the woman that i wasnt done she audibly laughed and said that she "thought i should have at least left a tab." Really? The host only moved me one table over and i could hear her clearly. Besides that the sushi looks unfresh and unedible sometimes.

I was afraid to eat here because some of the reviews are nightmares but its not bad. Some of the sushi was dry from sitting out and some of the food was cold for the same reason but the selection is huge and the frequently chosen food was refreshed often and warm. The waitress seemed nice when we meet her while being seated but she didnt notice us again after that. All in all its self serve, cheap and theres enough good to choose from so Ill come again.

This place is better than "ok" but its not the greatest. Theyve got the largest selection Ive seen around at a good price. Their downfall is their customer service isnt the greatest, by 7 pm they stop putting fresh sushi out and they give you these cheap horrid napkins that are thinner than toilet paper. You have to use a bunch of them to absorb anything or else they just end up sticking to you. For the most part, when its fresh the food is good.

I was informed the place had eel on the sushi bar. There is eel sauce but no eel! BE WARNED! Most of the sushi bar is Crab meat (at best imitation) and Talapia! The "cheese wantans" are Crab Ragoons. Temperature of "cooked food", unless it comes straight out of the kitchen or off of the limited Hibatchi grill is cold. Waiters seem friendly and very prompt, cleanliness is good and is themed well but thats where the experience ends.

An awesome budget meal with a wonderful atmosphere and pretty solid food. Theres a hibachi spot in the back, they also do steak. These guys cater, serve a small beer and wine menu, and sushi is included in the buffet. Obviously its not all top quality sushi or steak, but Ive been to this place on multiple occasions and never had a problem with the food or staff. It is my go to pig out buffet in hampton roads.

As far as Chinese cuisine goes...its pretty good and you cant be the price. Hibachi grill is good and the sushi is pretty good for a buffet...only thing I would suggest is not going around 8pm or after...cause they tend to get kinda lazy with putting out new food which is why I rate them 4 instead of 5 stars...obviously Im a regular but I learned to come during lunch hours or later than 7pm!!

Since opening the quality of the food has dropped a bit in the buffet area. A lot of the food is now being put out cold when it should be hot in the buffet area. The hibachi grill is awesome! The only thing that needs improvement at the hibachi grill is it needs cleaned around the food area more often from the dropped food on the counter section. Service and staff are awesome as always!!

Typical buffet food...not that great. The place is never that busy and food is way over priced...some of the staff are slow and others come to check on you frequently (thats one of the few good things theyve got going for them). The sushi guy doesnt speak one word of English...that was a downer when I wanted to ask if he could make veggie rolls.

I usually do not like buffets, but I hadnt eaten all day and wanted a bang for my buck. I was extremely surprised that I liked every item I tried. A nice selection and everything was seemed fresh. Lunch buffet on Saturday at 2pm. Extremely good value. I used to pay $20 for food that was half as good back home in Arlington Virginia.
