I came in here on a Friday night about 45 minutes before they were supposed to close. I already walked in understanding that I’m coming in towards the end of the buffet. What I wasn’t expecting was for the grill to already be closed or the moment I sat down with my first plate, they were prepping to remove things. When I went to get my second plate of food, they had already removed all the sushi before I was even able to have any.
I went up for my second plate of food and picked up a few desserts, just in case they started taking things away. After almost finishing my second plate and contemplating what I was going to get, a lady comes up and asks me if I want to get any more food.
Mind you there’s still almost 30 minutes before they’re closed. But already disappointed and the fact that half the food was already not available to me, I decided I was done eating for the evening.
I left money with the check on the table and went to use the bathroom before leaving. I will say the bathrooms were definitely clean. But as I’m leaving over half the restaurant had already been mopped/drenched, with no dry path or wet floor signs…
The food wasn’t that bad, that I got to taste… But I wouldn’t recommend, especially not for dinner and won’t be back again either.

Used to be good but now it is flipping terrible. The amount of grease and salt is unbelievable. The sauces are terrible. Pity it was good.
Made my friend throw up, and the food genuinely was just bad, i would not go here

This place has been here forever. Kinda lousy. Cold, old food at 6pm. Some unidentifiable. Nobody at the grill so I didn't get any. Cheap ice cream. The restroom was reasonably clean.

I love eating there!!
Update: after years of going there with family and friends my opinion has not changed. This is the best spot to eat at!
If you want good tips you might want to refill the cups with drinks I was going to leave.50 cents on table but my wife tipped your lucky. Also hibachi grill was packed up early if you don’t want customers keep doing what you’re doing. More than likely I will not be back
ass ass ass, place was dirty and unkept, staff was constantly trying to get us out and overcharged us $10 because of “lunchtime” and the food was revolting, DO. NOT. COME. HERE
