While the food is good, the prices have gone up and the automatic gratuity is not advertised. Dinner for 2 should not cost $66

Bugs by food! Do not eat here. They add 13% for tip without asking. DO NOT EAT HERE

Food has changed, not in a good way. Prices went way up, with added gratuity to the bill, plus the waitress asking for more is too much. Kumo needs an update and a deep clean. Better food, a cleaner, and updated dining space would make more sense with the updated prices.

Unacceptable! I went there around 7:45 pm as a party of two. Most of food were dried up or left by pieces. As a long time customer, I understood this type of situation where the restaurant’s not busy and ready to close up for a day. So I stayed and ate my food. But then, a server brought a check that included 12% gratuity! As I mentioned, it was only two of us and the restaurant decided to include 12% gratuity for bringing couple of waters and took 3 empty dishes from the table.Do not go here. They don’t think of customers as business but rather they think it’s ok to take money from customers blind sided.

I took myself and my two sons for lunch on Sunday (ages 9,2). I thought they had lunch prices, but apparently on Sunday it is dinner all day (which is fine). I was not aware that 12% gratuity is included.. I’ve never experienced that at a buffet. It ended up being 58 dollars for me and my two kids (that barely ate). Extremely overpriced IMO. The food was okay.. but not worth that price.

Great hot pot, buffet and friendly staff.I have been to many different places serving Asian cuisine and thought that I knew most of the ones in my general area that had a decent buffet but somehow this place had flown under my radar and I couldn't be more sorry about that.The excellent selection of Asian food here is beyond local compare. From Hot pot heaters built into select tables, a wide selection of sushi, extensive buffet and hot pot options with both Americanized asian and traditional Asian dishes you will be hard pressed to find other places to compare. In my opinion this place sets the local standard for what you can get for your money.The staff was courteous, friendly, helpful and attentive. When I had questions about how long they had been there, the types of food, specifics about a dish and other things I got complete answers and if the person who I ask didn't know the manager came over and was willing to answer questions. While not a sparkling new establishment, it seems well maintained and clean, with staff constantly moving to take care of service and busing.Selection of condiments and sauces that were in their own area as well as in the sushi and Hot pot areas was extensive, beyond just the common ones found at most Asian food venues.I have included a large number of pictures to give a complete idea of what I have meant and recommend looking at the labels (which were clear and extensive.The manager did advise me that they would be closed for modeling this summer ('24) which would be of note and worth calling prior to making plans if you are unfamiliar with the place.

The vibes are IMMACULATE and the food is positively bussin. Also shoutout to the ginormous pothos plant that is absolutely thriving by the front door... gotta be the biggest pothos plant I've ever seen. The staff is polite and helpful. Everything is very clean. Overall just a lovely spot to grab lunch or dinner. Thank you! I'll be back so soon (:

My company ordered Kumo Japanese Seafood Buffet to get delivered to our corporate headquarters for our office Chinese New Year's celebration. The food was all fantastic! I loved the egg rolls, the fried rice, the orange chicken, the coconut shrimp was awesome, and black pepper beef. Everything was wonderful and I'll definitely come back here.

I've eaten at kumo several times and enjoyed the restaurant. They have such a variety of dishes that can always find something I like. Dinner does have a lot of fresh seafood that can fit any pallet. I was suggest this restaurant to everyone I know.

We went during the lunch buffet. It appears that the dinner buffet has more variety. Overall, it was very good. The facility is showing some age and needs a remodel.
