The food had little flavor. It says Japense food on building, but it served low class flavorless Asian style food. Sushi was limited and poorly made. Restaurant was cool, so the lukewarm food looked like it was steaming hot. The ice tea tasted sour and a couple of days old. Five of the six buffets were only half full at lunch time. The host set behind the stand and played on phone. The Mongolian grill had very limited selection of items t9 choose from. I am usually a five plate person at buffets. I eat maybe one and half.

I've never tried this buffet, but I'd seen some positivity surrounding how many food options are available. This made me excited to try them out, and maybe find some dishes you don't see in many Chinese buffets. Unfortunately, the issue here is one of quality vs quantity. Despite having so many buffet stations, it didn't make much difference, as most of the dishes didn't taste good. Maybe I should have been tipped off when almost every other person there was elderly, instead of anybody closer to my age. I find this place to be disappointing because it looked quite clean and a pleasant restaurant to eat at. Another problem was the possible tripping hazards caused by the uneven flooring near the buffets. I almost stumbled over it myself, and someone actually did fall while I was there. So mortifying. I've never had general tso's chicken that tasted sour. Two items also had problems with the batter. The tempura batter was thick, too dark, and had a bad taste. Even worse was the sweet and sour chicken, which was like biting into a clump of improperly mixed and cooked batter. If it'd been the first thing I'd tasted, I'd have stood up and walked out, as there's no excuse for that. Many of the dishes weren't seasoned well, which is an issue I've never had with any other Chinese buffet before. There were only a few items I found enjoyable, so at least I could eat my fill. The problem isn't one of freshness, I just think they have bad cooks. Even without a drink, I was charged $12 for the dinner buffet. Not unreasonable in most cases, but with such poor food, I will never return. There's a competitor right across the street, which is considerably smaller, but everything tastes great. Just remember that they're closed on Monday.
