Absolute disaster of a place…seriously questioning how this place is even still in business. They are killing people. There was a hair in my plate and nothing is clean here. The food is COLD. The staff are extremely rude and just downright disgusting. Health dept, you’re not doing your job…

Wait staff is awesome and attentive - putting that here first.We honestly did not think we were at the right place when we pulled in because the windows are so dark and dirty that it looked abandoned. The outside of the building and inside seating areas look and feel like they haven't been updated or deep cleaned since the 80s - and not in a cool, retro way, but in a greasy/dingy way.The food area, though, is clean and well-lit.The sushi was honestly not bad/a bit better than I thought it should be and I liked the hibachi - I didn't like, though, that all of the raw meats, vegetables, etc were just kind of sitting out on the cold-buffet. I ate it anyways haha and it was pretty decent, even though the rice that was on the buffet to use was almost cemented together.The rest of the food was not good, even awful, and I honestly could not understand why so many people were coming in to get to-go of this food. It was flavorless & so greasy (I tried a bit of nearly everything) and it was obviously out a bit too long (dinner buffet at 330, we were there at 5) because the rice was literally crispy. Even the drinks were off - it's obvious the fountain machine hasn't been cleaned in just about as long because my Pepsi tasted more like a weird mix of cola, Dr Pepper, and root beer. Bonus points that it was only $13.99/person, though, so there is that.I'm an adventurous eater who forgives a lot but I would quite literally not go there again for free.

First of all I would like to say that the overall place was hell. When I walked in the amount of dirty people was insane. All of the food had at least something wrong with it. There was cross contamination in the hibachi bar, hair in the ice cream, the rice looked crazy yellow, plastic wrapper in the sugar donuts, and what looked to be some sort of blood from humans or meat in the desert tray. Other than that the food tastes unbearably sweet and if it wasn’t sweet it was dry with absolutely no flavor. Their “soft drinks” are not actually from a dispenser. They are from 2 liter bottles. Only drink water? Well you’re in luck because they ever so kindly drop fortunes in your drink. Apart from the food the service wasn’t too terrible except when you couldn’t understand the waitress when she talked. The waitress also came over and swept under the table almost hitting our feet in the middle of our meal. I mean I love their effort on keeping the place clean but please do it when we leave. As I was finishing my meal I had to use the restroom. Everything was fine there except for the hole in the wall underneath the paper towel dispenser with exposed wires. I guess it’s to shock you back to life after dying of aids from eating the food. To finish it all off I was walking and almost slipped due to the fact of the 4 foot circle of ice on the walkway. Not to mention the 1.5 foot ice cycles hanging from the roof that would definitely leave a mark if I fell down. Anyways I highly recommend this lovely establishment.

I absolutely would have gave it 5 stars, but they started using cheap spaghetti noodles in the lo mein and that made me sad. Still good though.

Worth the half-hour drive over the state line! All of the good Chinese buffets near us have shut their doors. So glad we gave this a shot! Excellent, fresh food on the warmers, none of it was dried out or looked like it has been around all day. An excellent selection of sushi, and a hibachi grill where they'll put together your own custom stir-fry. I had questions about which sushi rolls were cooked vs raw, and the kind lady there helped guide me. Everyone was very nice, and we'll definitely be back regularly!Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggies on the buffet to choose from, and you can make your own meat-free hibachi plate.Kid-friendliness: What kid doesn't love a buffet? It's the best place to introduce new foods to little ones without committing to an entire entree.

The buffet was kept filled, but the quality has fallen off. Not bad, but not as good as others.
