I ate here during Peak Covid, and wouldn't go back even if they paid me.
There were no safety protocols, the staff and other diners were packed closer than two peas in a pot. The food wasn't fresh, and it felt like it had been sitting there for the past week. I went during rush hour, there was no excuse for the food to be not fresh. Overall the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and a non-enjoyable experience in general. Wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy, please do not eat here.

This place has a musky smell to it. Some of the food was lukewarm, pizza was stale, and at $65.00 for, 4 people, I say I will not recommend this location. 2 stars

Horrible experience.
Background: we have been coming to this place for a 10 years.
Situation: our 2 year old son just woke up and was grumpy and crying. One of the staff members approached us and stated our child was being loud and we needed to quiet him because others were being disturbed. The restaurant is loud with a lot hustle and bustle with people talking. The staff member made a scene more than our son was making. We were obviously trying to quiet him and coming and pointing out our son was loud was not productive. He was crying maybe 5 minutes but the staff member made it seem like he was being loud for many minutes.
The main point was we were demeaned for a crying child. The staff member did not even try to help us resolve the situation in a better manner. If you have a loud or crying child this business has no qualms about making you feel even worse and creating a scene to point you out.
We will never go back and hope others have a better experience than us.

This restaurant has actually always been enjoyable every time my family and i have been here. We travel farther from home, passing multiple other restaurants to eat here. This 1 star review is based off my experience today one in which my mom, grandma and myself were treated unbelievable by a waitress. I don’t even remember her being the *only waitress waiting on us, but when the check came my mother left me her card to pay in which i was going to walk the check to pay upfront while her and my grandma went to the restroom before we left. The waitress insisted she had to take the check up to the counter to pay and told me to sit and wait at the table. So i did. In which she returned with the check so i filled in the amount but left the tip area blank because my mom had the cash for the tip but hadn’t returned from the restroom. She asked me if i was going to write in the tip amount and i told her no that my mom had the cash instead. She argued with me that she had in-fact seen my mom and grandma leaving the building and they were not in the restroom. I told her that i KNEW they were in the restroom (because i drove us there and had the keys in my pocket) but she rolled her eyes and shook her head as she grabbed the plates from the table. I then told her that i would go check on them in the restroom and as i walked away she started talking more starting with “Oh my god, etc etc”. I found my family in the restroom and told them what just had happened. They were in disbelief. We hadn’t given anyone any trouble, made any complaints, caused any scenes. Just ate and acted as normal.. The group of waitresses were huddled up and then looked over at us as we walked from the restroom to the front counter to talk to the manager and told him what happened. My mom gave the cash tip to the manager just to prove a point. He said he would take care of it. I still can’t believe we were treated like that. Disgusting way to be treated as a paying loyal customer.

I didn't care for the general tso but everything else was good. They were constantly cleaning the buffet bar. I've never been to a place that keeps the bar so clean. I would definitely go back.

We were hungry and it was very good. Whatever I tried was good, even the salmon sashimi and the seaweed salad! The service was also better than expected.

Food delicious. Eat as much as you want. Great selection. Friendly staff and great service. What more could you want? Some insightful fortune cookie wisdom: "If you chase two rabbits, both will escape".

This is a pretty good Buffet. They have a great selection and good atmosphere. The food was refreshed constantly so most all of it was pretty tasty. Our waitress was excellent. She deserved a big tip. She was very helpful with the child that was with us and making sure drinks for full and that we were always doing well. Only complaint I really had was the cost. It was just a little higher than I expected and since we traveled all that way didn't want to go back to one of the others.
