Selection was very limited. They only had 2\3 of their steam tables in use. Some food was good. Some was definitely sitting out a while. And do I really need to ask for a refill of water?? The sushi was very good. Bad ice cream selection and no way to rinse the scoops! Very unsanitary. Even the fortune cookies were sub par. And the mandatory 15% tip is robbery. 16.99 for dinner is not worth it at this place. Def not coming here again. Much better buffets around.

Rip off in every sence. Foods not good some of it's cold plus the staff charges you 15%tip for a Buffett

Overpriced, shady with the tipping process, mediocre buffet style food that has the tendency to make you sick afterwards. Don’t do it, just don’t. You’ll thank me later!

The food was good but they rush you to leave the you looking at you all time , we not finish eating the bring the received to the table.

Hot and sour soup here is amazing. Everything else is your typical and not like how it used to be pre COVID. Not much for sushi option but I wouldn’t eat sushi at a Chinese buffet anyways. Food not fresh but room temperature. I would suggest here if you are okay with average food and your typical

The food was ok, but I was upset that they secretly added money to the tip after I left, I called the manager the next day and it was corrected.Some of the food was old, dry and hard. The sushi also tasted old, the rice had a funny taste to it.. like it sat in a musty refrigerator. Egg rolls were crispy and well seasoned, chicken fingers were real meat. The rice was good, but it's hard to screw up rice.I don't like their automatic 'COVID-19 gratuity' and I think it was a little costly for the quality.

Hi,I ordered food from this place for Lunch today. I wanted Shrimp Chow Mein.The 1st photo shows what I ordered and the 2nd one shows what I got. I had Chow Mein before as well. This one didn’t even have a grain of noodles. It was full of onions and cabbage. And this cost me $11.

Horrible place scam they obligate you to tip a 15% for serving soda? It's a joke for cold food. Neverrrrr ever in my life then I leave the exact amount they asked for and then obligated me to check the receipt to see if I left the amount. Horrible 0 stars

There was one entire island that was completely empty so basically there were atleast 12 entrees missing what was there was not even hot and there was no sushi, oh & now they add their own tip to the bill... it was a Saturday evening and they were rushing us to leave after not even 40 minutes...

Low quality Chinese. Food was not fresh. The only positive is the price.
