This was second time my family dinned at Monster Chef. The service was great. However, the food was just all right. Some of the 🣠sushi were great but some were bland. The buffet style was a plus! Too bad this restaurant put out a notice that they will close the restaurant for good August 12, 2019.
Great All You Can Eat (AYCE) place. It's only open on weekends during dinner (5PM). The food was delicious and service was nice. If you aren't a patient person, don't bother going. The food is made by order so sometimes it takes a little while for it to get to you. But once it does, it is worth it. There is a 2 hour limit but it starts once they put in your first order. I would come again.
I'm not sure how people give this restaurant 5 stars rating. I was sitting here just eating edamame. It's a $40 buffet for 2 hours limit, and one round would serve more than 30 mins. This is even slower than regular restaurant. At the end, I just know the restaurant will close on August 11. YES, you should close your business. SHAME ON YOU!
The food quality is decent, but the wait is terrible. Took about 30 to 45 min for each order to come out. Definitely not a all you can eat experience. You will feel full and unhappt by the next order comes out
taste good, decent buffet. Service is a bit slow.
Great Service!! Friendly Staff...
Casual and cozy atmosphere. Attentive service staff. Good food and healthy selections.
So overrated. The rice on the rolls or nigiri is terrible. They provide the food at slower pacing as you continue eating....
Delicious food. The all you can eat ("ayce") is $50 with all you care to drink alcohol; so worth it. Some items are not included in ayce, but the staff is good about letting you know this up front. You can order 3 items per round per person. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because on the 2nd round my fiance and I ordered 6 items, and they only gave us 4 of the six things we ordered (they gave 2 things that we didn't order, but where still tasty). Not a major problem, I just ordered the two items not given on round 3. Some favorites: Monster TNT and Monster Luck.
All the foods is goods, fresh, juicy! Sushi

EXTREMELY slow service, VERY understaffed and unethical place. They give a 2 hour limit and it takes 25-30mins for them to bring out the food. They constantly bring out the wrong food that wasn't places on the order(This was second time we were treated this way). I wish there was an option for negative star. Be aware there is leftover charges and they are making people wait reallllllllly long on purpose to let them digest?!?! Never will return here again!!!
No clear explanation about all you could eat....menu is confusing...we left without ordering....not pleasant experience
Under staffed sh*t show
Food is great but service is just so so.
We went on a Saturday and the service was extremely slow. Some waiters are more attentive than others. You need to allot of time when eating here. The ice cream bar was awesome though.
