Was there on Mothers day. The buffet had about 12 selections with about 2 cups in each one was fried fish head with no meat. The fruit bar looked nothing like in the picture. It had 3 pieces of watermelon and a few pieces of cantellpe or mango.. enough for 2 people. Never put any food out to replenish..The drink bar was heip yourself .. Tea came out of carbonated machine and was thick and like milk in it. , We barely ate anything and the bill was $42.for 2 people. There was no entertainment ( karaoke). as mentioned in post. They literally took a floor fan off us and pointed towards the owner sitying at a table talking with someone..waiter finally came to table as we were getting ready to leave. Would seriously recommend to stay away from this place. This was mother's day and a big disappointment.as we left hungry $42 later .was very ill the next day.with food poisoning..Can't imagine what it's like on a regular day if this was what they offered on Mothers day.

PSA!! Long time patrons aren't respected or cared for!!

After a long relationship of countless Sunday dinners and large party orders for the holidays. I recently received a rude awakening when after ordering and paying (including a TIP) for a large order of pancit trays and egg rolls (Totalling around $200), I asked for a reasonable amount of disposable plates for my order so that my coworkers wouldn't have to eat from the palms of their hands. Apparently like gold, palladium, and printer ink; cheap disposable plates are just as valuable and in this case would've cost me $5 dollars after paying for my food. This came directly from the owner which makes it worse. This unreasonable nickle and diming of the customer is exactly why people would rather drive by Pinoy restaurants and choose a Chinese, Thai, or Vietnamese place. A better dining experience, consistent service, and prices that actually match the quality of food. Those of which cannot be found here, save the outing and go to Chinese buffet instead. I myself won't ever come back here again it's bad for my BP and wallet.

Go to a different place. When I arrived lots of staff sitting around talking. 60-70% of the food bins were either very low on food or empty and not getting refilled. Food looked like it had been out all day.

Overall I would not come back here unfortunately.

Did not eat here so I can't really rate it but walked out after they charge $20 for the buffet, which is ok I guess, but if you have leftovers on your plate when you leave there is a sign they add a surcharge! What if the food sucks and I leave it just because do I get charged 2x and not eat anything?

The food is never hot. Ever. I suspect you're cooking everything the day before, keeping it in large containers and you're using the buffet table to try to heat up the food instead of actually heating it up properly.

Man!! the food is really tasty. Price may or may not be a bit steep lol, but not too bad for a buffet. I love the pansit especially and the pork.
