Buffets near West Covina

“The overall environment is clean and well-designed, and the self-serve sauce bar is also very tidy. The ingredients are very fresh—the sliced meats have beautiful marbling, the seafood is well-prepared with no fishy smell at all, and there’s a wide variety of fresh vegetables.

It’s currently $14.99/lb, and there’s a 12% opening discount, plus a free drink included, which honestly makes the value feel almost unbelievable… hotpot has never felt this affordable and stress-free.

We ordered the spicy broth and tomato bone broth. The moment they arrived, the aroma was incredible. The spicy broth was bold, hot, and flavorful, while the tomato broth was rich and comforting.

I really like this “small and refined” style of hotpot—no fighting for ingredients, no worrying about portion sizes. Every bite feels like your own pace, and the whole experience is both relaxing and satisfying.“

“Absolutely insane value for money. Endless sushi and seafood for a price that wouldn’t even get you two pieces of shrimp at other regular restaurants.

Quality of food varies a little bit; sushi is really good but some of the seafood doesn’t taste the greatest and can taste sorta stale. Crab has very little meat and is mostly shell. Some stuff is a little cold too. But still, for the price I can’t believe just how much variety there is of stuff that would be pretty expensive anywhere else.

I do wish the various trays’ ingredients were labeled more clearly and there was more English speaking staff. But overall a super underrated buffet and highly recommendable.“

“First time eating in this seafood buffet. The food was plentiful, great varieties, some of food was very tasty. Dim sums were very good. Plentiful specializef coffee, fruit drinks.
The servers were not very attentive, playing their cell phones or talking to each other, not paying attention of what the customers eating or calling them.“

“FRIDAY FOOD REVIEW...GOLDEN PANDA BUFFET (again)...5/30/25! We hadn't been to the Golden Panda Buffet, located at 1825 Madera Rd, in Simi Valley, in several years, so it was time to go back! They have a huge selection of Japanese, Chinese, and Mongolian food for your dining pleasure, plus there are also different soups, salads, fruits, and of course desserts and ice creams! We both tried a variety of it all, and for a buffet, it's really good!! It's definitely a locals favorite...get there early!!“

“There is a variety of food options available for everyone from sushi rolls, pizza, chicken nuggets, Chinese, etc. Some food options were out for a while which tasted stale and lost flavor, but it was very few things compared to most of the available options.
The service was well as they had staff putting out food, clean utensils and serving refills for drinks.
The environment was pretty loud in some areas and the lighting is a bit dim, which can be improved on to feel welcoming or light up the dining area. Great price overall if you want to get all you can eat sushi along with other food options.“
