I'll break this review into 3 parts, the Food, the service, and the atmosphere.Dinner Buffet Price: 21.99 USD +tax1. The FoodWhile it is a smaller selection, some of the items feel more "premium". The most notable part is the squid and the sashimi. (P.S. the wasabi is pretty good). Everything looked fresh, and the hot stuff was kept hot.My main issue is with the cold items. Many of the cold items like fruit, cold seafood, and sushi were room temperature. I am not sure how long they keep them out, but some people might feel uncomfortable eating warm sashimi.Overall, the food seemed fresh, was tasty, and seemed safe enough. I’ll update if I feel unwell later.2. The ServiceThe service is fine. They were quick to refill my water and take empty plates. That’s expected when there are only a handful of customers. However, that is all they did. Nobody asked how my meal was going.Now for clarity, I don’t really tip for buffet style restaurants. I know it may be a bit controversial, but they don’t really have to do much. I might tip a hibachi cook, or for exceptional service, but I received neither.At the end of the meal after signing the receipt, the server pointed to the receipt and told me tip was not included and told me to write a tip down. Just that one thing turned my evening. If that had not happened, the service would have 5 stars, and the review would probably have 4 or 5 stars.3. The AtmosphereIts pretty in its own way. It looked fairly clean. I did not use the restroom. Would be nice if they had more customers, but I guess they cannot truly control that. The tables are a nightmare for people with long legs (such as myself). I couldn’t sit comfortably because the center of the table is in the way.The energy was just not there. Some places have it, some places don’t. This is one of the places that does not have a great atmosphere.TL;DR The food is okay, but check to make sure it is not spoiled. Don’t expect much from the service.

Stumbled onto this buffet restaurant on google map, while I was looking up directions to the mall. So, I decided to try it out. I had no idea this place had been here for years. The place is clean, the food is fresh, and the sushi is real sushi!!, not just california rolls. They have thd spicy tuna, spicy salmon, eel roll, etc! I'm definitely coming back.

I had one of those sad experiences tonight.Only read further if you want to, I can't remember a sadder restaurant:I'd been here once before (5 yrs ago/ pre-Covid). This time, nothing tasted good, the waitress almost never approached me, my seat was badly and sadly worn, and there were signs not to touch the fish or throw coins in the water, yet there were coins in the water and no fish.The people: The waitress came to my table 3x while i was there: 1x to remove a plate while she didn't look at nor talk to me, 1x to put the bill on the table & give a quick, "thank you", before hurrying away, and 1x to take my credit card (then she was at my table before I had even let go of my card.) The people restocking the food and moving around similarly failed to acknowledge me, even when I gave a quick "hi". I'm not asking enyone to kow-tow to me, but the workers acted like they didn't want to be there and we the customers were an inconvenience. There were 2 other tables in my section, I didn't see any real service there either.Food: I found the sushi lacking and bland, and the available sashimi was a bit slimy. The fish didn't taste rotten, but it was a big turn-off. I couldn't even bring myself to try most of the dishes they looked so unappetizing. I didn't even finish my ice cream. I *always* finish my ice cream and then have seconds (& thirds). The mint-choc tasted alright, but I couldn't finish what I assume was the green tea (which I've enjoyed before) nor the unidentifiable tasting purple one. I think the Hibachi grill is supposed to be available during diner, but I didn't see anyone behind that area at any time. The shrimp shumi and dumplings tasted heavy, tasteless and uninspired.?: They sat me at a table next to a bucket and a dish basin.(There were additional ones by the door. Yes, it was a heavy rain day) At the beginning of the meal I was disturbed by them, by the end I was eyeing them wondering if I was going to need them.I do wonder what the disco ball is used for(?) I can still remember what the place looked like before it fell into sadness (sorry, I can't think of a better description for tonight) and the architecture is pretty overall.To be fair: the sushi's ginger was very fresh, the wasabi was strong, the broccoli from the chicken broccoli was edible and the chocolate cake dessert was tasty. The Lychees were a nice option. One benefit of all the bad food is I didn't overeat at a buffet for once.I'm currently sitting in my car wondering if I'm going to be sick tonight. (Edit: I wasn't)I do *not* plan on returning. (Edit: Still true)Parking: Parking seems ample, even on a Saturday night, though the distance you will have to walk is questionable.

first of all, they don’t deserve a star. second off all one of the ladies serving the soda was so rude and the lady in the front was very rude.They charge a kid by height which is so dumb because my 10 year old niece is 5 foot and they charged us full price, there wasn’t a lot of food items and their rice was hard and raw. The employees talk about their customers in their own language. I would not recommend this spot it’s disgusting
Vegetarian options: Their buffet section has many different vegetarian options. The food is clearly labeled of what it is, but if you're vegan you might have to ask what is in certain dishes.Parking: They share a parking lot with the entire complex so it's tricky to find parking depending on the day and time
Found here after having a bad experience at a nearby restaurant, the food was so good that my family went back on two separate occasions. Thank you.

Honestly, it’s a sushi buffet… you’re not going here for the fine dining so much as you are going for the face stuffing.The sushi was good but fell apart, the buffet selection wasn’t big but it was good.

this is my favorite place to have lunch. It's super clean. The servers are so friendly and fast with your drinks and whatever you may need I wish I can eat here every day. The price is so reasonable for the buffet and they have lunch specials for hibachi, my favorite server is Winnie and Nikki, but all of them are so super friendly.
Selection are lacking
