Staff seemed efficient but no friendliness or special anything. We used to go there monthly until Covid and this our first time back. Non of us thought the prepared food was any good at all. The wontons were burned to a crisp and cocktail sauce undoubtedly was just a huge can of something dumped. For the first tie ever the ginger was not fresh. Never will go back…..my advice try the Happy Buffet instead.

I am working in the area for a couple of months and I usually do to go from Chinese buffets. I don't really get why it's called Ocean Buffet because there really wasn't much Seafood and when I have saw the pictures of sushi I was excited but when I got there all the rolls are only made with fake crab meat. There was no fish on them there were different sauces but I am allergic to fake crab because it has sorbitol which is a fake sweetener in it. I came on the Thursday at 5:30 p.m. also I'm used to the restaurant weighing the food and then charging you so I'm surprised to be given a small to go box and charged a flat $18 for it I would have piled more food into it. And I was not given a bowl to take any soup I was not impressed with the rest of the food either if you're going maybe with some family and just really looking to go out to eat but if you're really trying to have some good food I would not go here

67$ and two kids couldn’t finish their first plate. Daughter stomach started hurting. Food was cold and not fresh. At 12 noon you would think it would not have been yesterdays food. Noodles were on point though. 3 star for noodles. Black pepper chick was sweet like sugar cooked with it. Not to bad for something different but was cold. Maybe there hot table was off and not turned on. But definitely don’t suggest going for that price point. I think maybe worth 8 dollars a person for quality you get. Maybe it was off day. Won’t be back unfortunately.

We went on a Wednesday lunch. Price was 12.99 for the buffet.It seems that lunch must be a slimmed down menu from dinner as half of the hot food island and more than half of the cold island was empty. There were no soups offered either.The Sushi and other main food choices were very good. Desert was of a noticeably lower quality then the main dishes, this is usual for these type places though it seems. The reason for 3 stars is BUYERS BEWARE that they tried to charge us 7.00 for a small kettle of hot water with a 20 cent bag of very nasty tea. It tasted like a mint tea bag that had been used 2 or 3 times. Very weak BUT $7.00!!!!!!! A glass of soda was 3.00. We REFUSED to pay such a ridicules price. We must not have been the first as the manager instantly took the price off. So go eat, it was good but make sure to double check the prices of drinks and do not let them try to gouge you with an outrages price for them.

Rude service. Walked over from hotel to buy buffet meal by the pound for my handicapped family member. Both Asian women were very condescending and rude. Loudly said $20.00 for carton. (Usually $10 in NYC) The carton barely fit a cup of rice and a handful of orange chicken. Most of the food selections were dry and overcooked. I only chose this place because it was in short walking distance. Is this how this town treats tourists? I wrote "no tip" and left after paying. My handicapped family member was grateful for not having to go out to eat, but I will NOT recommend this place to anyone. 05/14/22 8pm

Nothing special, but not bad. It is an all-you-can-eat Chinese and sushi buffet. Visited on a Saturday evening, medium size crowd. The sushi was just OK and did not have any tuna or salmon types. Chinese food was hot and plentiful. Salad choices were very limited, all I remember seeing is lettuce and cherry tomatoes. Price level was appropriate for what the choices were. They had peach chicken (similar to orange chicken) that was pretty good.

Good buffet at a reasonable price. Better than the average Asian food buffet, but the food probably won't overly impress you. Overall it's probably a 7 or 8 out of 10 compared to other buffets.The sushi is on par with grocery store sushi, so would probably recommend skipping that. The black pepper chicken, and most of the shrimp dishes were pretty good. Most of the food was pretty fresh. Would be nice if they had more fruit / larger dessert section.

I went here with hunger brewing in my stomach. I was eager to buy sushi and sit down and have a nice experience. Little did I know what I was getting myself into. Let it be known that this restaurant is a buffet, you have to pay upfront without knowing what you’re getting yourself into. DO NOT PAY IMMEDIATELY WALK OUT. NOTHING GOOD WILL COME FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE IF YOU HAVE AT LEAST AVERAGE EXPECTATIONS. I grabbed my plate after very poor service, I began walking through the array of steamy overwhelmingly warm buffet area. My sinuses were filled with the overpowering scent of oily greasy Chinese food. I was so disgusted and turned off that the only thing I allowed to touch my plate was rice that I ended up not eating. I then turned my focus towards the sushi area. The sushi was dried up as it has been left out for hours without being eaten. The fish on top had gone bad and dried out. This place is disgusting. I want my money back but I know I never will get it so I’m leaving this honest review to get back. I feel scammed, hungry, and defeated. I’m begging you if you are looking for a place to buy food, DO NOT COME HERE PLEASE. Your experience will be horrible and it cost way to much for what they’re offering this place is a disgusting hole of grease and unappealing foods. DO NOT COME. DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID…

Great Chinese buffet! Great selection of shrimp dishes made a variety of ways. I love the green beans any time and they did a great job on theirs. The sushi was fresh and delicious. All the traditional items you see at an American Chinese buffet had great flavor. Staff was diligent to keep items stocks and rotated. Very friendly and a decent price for what you get. Definitely stop in here if you are looking for a Chinese Buffet while in the St. George area!

There are so many negative reviews. People, this is not a Michelin star restaurant. It’s an affordable family buffet. You get what you pay for that’s with everything in life, and for the price, in my opinion, the food is great as well as the service. You can’t expect them to have excellent Grade A+ quality when they charge so little. I love this buffet I go here often and I would recommend it.
