This is the most mid buffet I’ve ever been too, the cake was dry, the ice cream was plain, the selection is limited , and only about 4 items are good. This is a place you eat at if you’re high, drunk, or trying to feed your underfeed family. Overall would not go here there are better options.

Short story: Go to another Asian restaurant if you want Asian cuisine. It's not worth the $.
Long story:
Usually I don't like to write bad reviews but this had to be stated. Used to come here as a kid on Sundays and it always used to feel special here. Decided to try it again as I have not been here in a long while and boy... I don't plan on coming back. Food was bland and mostly tasteless. The only thing that were somewhat enjoyable was the coconut shrimp, ice cream and the water. Everything else I tried was either flavorless or watered down.
Service was the only thing that was really good. I remember this place was actually decent back in the day. Or maybe that was just my childhood speaking. But it honestly has fell down since what it used to be.
Ended up paying over $20 with a tip and I wasn't all that full.
Tldr: try any other Asian restaurant in the area, there is a lot of better places than this. For a similar price you can get hibachi, sushi or ramen and actually be full.
My personal recommendations are chen's Mongolian (hibachi) buffet, Tokyo (sushi), or tadashi (ramen). Just don't spend you money on this place.

I gave this place one more chance . My mistake. Ate approx 1:30. Food was 1-3 days old in my opinion. Not fresh again. Employee pretended not to understand English. Food was terrible!

The meat tasted spoiled, the flavored Moose tasted and smelt spoiled, the sushi had a cleaner/chemical taste, and everything else was kind of eh. The drinks were kinda pricey. Almost $6 for 2 drinks. If you're looking for good Chinese food, do not recommend it.

The food was excellent. They had so many choices it was so hard to choose. I had to really just take very small portions so I could indulge in everything they had. We were there for the luncheon. I was with a large group, and we were there for a few hours, so I was able to partake in the tasting of most of the food. The waitresses were very nice and helpful. I would definitely go back. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

Food was old for the Dinner and they charged me nearly $40 for low quality bits of food. The crab Rangoons are pathetic and the chicken didnt have any good pieces left. Will not be coming back.

Food wasn't very good. Tasted old and probably warmed up from day before. Some was not edible. This was in the afternoon. May be better when busy. Tried many items.

Having sampled some of the best buffets on the planet, this is a 3/5. My favorite buffets in Miami are a cut above. But if you wish an average meal, then come here. They can improve across the board.

My family has known this place for a while and let me say they are amazing! The food could have some work but it’s probably because we came in late, but they stayed open late just to wait. It was one of my friends birthday and they did a custom song. They put together a plate of treats and sung to him and I have to say ignore all these other reviews this place is amazing
