The food is just okay. We got there about 7:30pm and they just had what they had, they never made fresh or put anything new out. Additionally the food was not very warm. The price on their website is not the price they actually charge you, it's more once you get there, but to be fair they did honor the website price for 1 out of 3 meals. They closed the Mongolian grill very early, 90 min before they closed. Speaking of the Mongolian grill, my son got a very large piece of bone in his pork and the manager blamed their carelessness on the company they get their meat from. She did refund his meal, but his tooth is damaged. She said she'd have their ins company call us. We'll see. Their sushi is all rolls, no sushi with raw fish and rice, just rolled with other stuff. It was a pretty disappointing visit and doubt we'll be back.

Especially in these post-COVID times, we make an effort to be kind and appreciative toward people in the food service industry, but our patience was sorely tried tonight.I thought that the salad bar looked a bit funky, but I overlooked it. When we sat down to eat, it seemed fine until the last few bites, when I saw that there was literally mud in the bottom of my plate! I showed one of the servers, who just took the plate away without comment. Later, my husband mentioned that the restrooms needed servicing, and was curtly told that they were very busy.They’ll be a bit less busy now, because they won’t be burdened by a return visit from us.

Customer service, TERRIBLE. Food BAD. The sushi looked extremely questionable we didn’t even bother trying it. A lot of the food looked old. Most of the protein was either extremely chewy or hard. Flavor lacked. Most of what I ate I didn’t even know what it was because nothing was labeled. The noodles and rice were the most decent things on the buffet so I ate almost just that it seemed. My toddler who eats just about anything you give him spit out almost everything I gave him. After we got our food dished up, we had to stand there waiting for a table to be cleaned!!! And not even just for a quick minute or two but for what seemed like forever! That was so awkward! There were so many empty tables but not a single clean one. This experience was so disappointing it’s not worth a second chance. Nothing from tonight’s experience was good. Way over priced for a terrible dining experience. Hands down would not recommend.

Well to start off they have it say lunch special is 10.99 mon through Saturday 11-4pm we show up at 1pm they charge us full price.... I will say most of the food is what you should expect for an all day buffet. The peanut chicken is delicious on the other hand the veggie rolls just lack taste and texture. Yes the place does look like it could use some touch ups and maybe some better overall cleanliness but not to bad of an experience. O and there ice sucks.

I so wanted to like this buffet. I have considerably low expectations due to the fact that we loved Hong Kong Buffet at the Valley Mall. It was low grade but amazing food and well, I didn’t die. This place was something else. Everything that could’ve been wrong with the food just was. Nothing restocked and a partially eaten pizza just hanging out on the pan. Any protein was like eating a tree. They’re understaffed which I totally appreciate, but paying over $30 was bogus for this experience. They have a sign that asks you not to waste food but if it’s inedible which most was…the good aspect is the place was beautiful and they have a very cool market.

If I could give negative stars I would! The food was disgusting. I should have known it would be terrible when I saw the spring salad was wilted, the seaweed salad was brown and the cream cheese in most everything was old \ spoiled. Taking a bite of two different sushi I had to stop because I thought it might cause food poisoning. We were there sat down eating for about 10 minutes and had to leave so discussed. Service was below average price was $17.99 each plus charge for drinks.. a total waste. Don’t go!

Such a huge selection. The environment was great and the service was excellent.We went here after church and enjoyed the Sushi, Habachi grill and all aspects of the buffet.My kids also loved the deserts as well, we were very happy with our visit here.

I'm extremely disappointed with the service that I was received tonight. I took my three kiddos there for dinner and there's absolutely no food and what food was there was disgusting and when I asked if there was going to be more food I was told to go over to the grill and they could make me something. and when I tried to confront the manager to get a refund she refused to give me my refund and told me there is nothing she could do. I will not be returning to this restaurant in the near future the customer service and food was awful.

Food is okay. Most of the food was hard or completely inedible. The stuff we could eat was good. Customer service is okay. Prices were expensive. Won't be going back!Update: Tried this place again and it was worse than the last time (I didn't think that was possible). The sushi rice was hard and not fresh, the warming tables were not to temp and half the food was cold. The hibachi grill food isn't even cooked correctly but it was the warmest food we could find in the place. It is extremely overpriced and nothing is taken care of. The place itself looks appealing until you look closer and then you'll realize how dirty it really is. The health department needs to be notified!!! I wish we could give negative Stars.

Food was old. Like old old.Stale hard noodles, pizza that was like cardboard and tough dry meat.Almost nothing was labeled which made it hard eating anything when you have a shelfish allergy.Teriyaki chicken was the best and probably the freshest item that was out.Won't return :/Honestly every day at least once for the past 2 weeks I've thought about what in life has disappointed me more than this food experience and I literally can think of nothing. My dad leaving to go start a new family after my mother's death wasn't as disappointing as this "meal".I will never return
