Minato Japanese Buffet & Seafood

Very rarely these days can you equate a buffet with food you can’t miss, the sushi here is especially good, my wife and I have made this a staple to visit at least once a month

It was just ok. Nice selection but I felt like the quality wasn’t the best. Not bad but not great!

So I just left this location in Pembroke Pines Florida. I will never go back to this place ever again. So my family and I went to eat and my 11 year old daughter was with us of course. These racist, despicable, and disgraceful people. They questioned my daughter’s age bc she is tall. They insulted my daughter, while I was in the car trying to park. I got out and demanded that someone apologize for her making her feel bad about her height. I am never going back. This policy is stupid bc you can have a 27 year eat as a child as long as you are shorter than 57 inches. As a father of a black princess I simply wanted an apology. Some little bodyguard I guess he is came out saying that my daughter and wife both were lying. This made me angry, but I left. Never ever going back.

I've never experienced a sushi and sashimi buffet like Minato. Everything was fresh. There was a line to enter at 5 pm, when they opened.

They will cook to order a hibachi meal, plus many, many hot offerings.

Everything was clean including the bathrooms.

Highly recommend

I’ve been to plenty of buffets and this might be one of the best, however, kinda pricy compared to others.
They have plenty of options from seafood to fried stuff to sushi and their desserts. I try to get a little of everything until I’m full and maybe repeats of my favorites. I did enjoy their bao custard buns and went back for more. I didn’t get to take a picture of all my plates, but here are some of the food they have. The waiter was also nice and accommodating, so that was good. Overall, it’s a place to check out, especially if you’re hungry.

First time at this restaurant and I was not impressed with the food quality or service . I arrived at 5 PM on Sunday and the food was cold being that they just opened. I was so disappointed and receiving cold food. Then I waited for them to cook the food warmer and They ask me to leave. After taking my money of almost 200.00 not worth it , all I would rather go to chow time is cheaper. The food was hot and fresh in the service was amazing. I would never returned back to this Japanese fake restaurant. If it was up to me, they would get a zero* they rush you out of the restaurant. If you’re looking for good quality, hot food, and great service I advise you to go to Chow time down the street. Amazing they get a ten star. Chow time is the best I love it there

Wheelchair accessibility: They don’t treat there customers right
