The food was okay but the restaurant was nasty. No hand sanitizer set out for people. The tables were sticky. The doors were covered in handprints (to the point that you could tell it had been a long time since they had been cleaned). The silverware that was brought out to me was wrapped in a DIRTY napkin. And I mean dirty, dirty. I watched an employee grab full plates of old food to clear off a table, dump the remains in a bucket, and then go and fill people’s drinks without any gloves or washing their hands. Even the ice cream tasted freezer burnt and old. I couldn’t help but get grossed out the whole time I was there. The high chairs were covered in nasty handprints and were sticky. This place used to be pretty good, but has clearly went wayyyy down hill. Someone should be frequently going around and changing out the spoons to clean ones to stop the spread of germs.

The sushi used to be excellent. The food was always fresh, there was a great variety, and the sushi bar was consistently well stocked. Unfortunately, that’s no longer the case. The quality of the sushi has noticeably declined, the portions are much smaller, and there are very few options available. The sushi bar is often left empty for long stretches because it isn’t refilled regularly, making the experience disappointing if you’re expecting an all you can eat selection. The only thing that still stands out is the service. Most of the servers are friendly, attentive, and do an excellent job. They deserve recognition because, in my opinion, they’re the only reason this place is still worth visiting.

This is the BEST sushi buffet in the area. I was super sad when Asiana closed a few years ago and I’ve been hunting for a replacement. This place is by far the best. I also love that they don’t cover all their sushi in sesame seeds like some other places because I don’t like sesame. Their mussels are fantastic and they even have duck! This place is amazing and we will definitely be back!

The food is unbelievable. They have probably the widest spread of Asian food I have ever seen including sushi, dumplings, rice and noodles, starters, gravies, salads, desserts and more. The vibe was silent and peaceful, the staff is polite and nice. Their pricing again is unbelievably affordable for the quality and spread. Plenty of parking outside as well. Perfect. Loved it.

It was bigger than I expected when we first arrived! The atmosphere is nice and there’s tons of seating areas. The staff were also very friendly and attentive! We enjoyed a lot of the food offered, but I especially recommend ordering a beef pho noodle soup! The broth was delicious! Overall I’d say this buffet was one of the best we’ve been to so far! :)
