Was disappointing, the price was too high, many choices of the food was cold or cool, chicken was dry. We used to enjoy eating here, don’t know what happened. Waitresses were nice, accommodating. There wasn’t much for young kids appetite. Lomein was good, hibachi steak was warm, tender, but most everything else was cold. I may still get takeout but we will think twice before eating in their restaurant.

Food wasn't all that great. It wasn't fresh. We also found these critters inside our ice cream. Chairs are falling apart. Not the cleanest. Not that

Dined in at the buffet. It's $14.99 per person and you have to pay first. Was a bit disappointed eating here. The food was not that great. Most of the chicken was dry or hard to chew and most, if not all, of the food looked like it had been sitting there for a while, for reference I dined here at 7pm. This place is definitely not what it was years ago.

You know when you like a place when they recognize you from your order. Great food, great service, for a quick takeaway night.

This place has REALLY gone downhill. I used to love to eat here under the former owner/manager. The lunch buffet with drink is $15, for what they offer it is very overpriced. If you go when they first open it tastes like food from the previous day. The only thing that is even edible to me is the sushi. The TVs have been broken for over a year and you have to pay up front like they think you are a thief/scumbag.
