A group of us went to this restaurant because of the all-you-can-eat buffet, and what i find is this: know what to expect and you won’t be disappointed. This is the ideal place for a large group with various tastes and budgets. What this place will NOT offer: a grand culinary experience, a trendy atmosphere, service excellence.

But it’s a decent meal out if you plan on concentrating on the company of your friends / family.

Ok, so about the food. It’s a good size buffet, there’s a chinese food section, with about 20 different warm choices, and 20 appetizer choices, as well as about 4 choices of soup. I recommend the schezuan shrimps, the crispy chicken and the soups. Then there’s the sushi section. I consider myself relatively educated in matters of sushi, and if that’s how you consider yourself, then don’t go there for the sushi. There’s your basics only: california, kamikaze and a couple other combinations. There are about 2-3 vegetarian rolls, and your basic nigiri sushi: salmon, shrimp and eel the day i was there. The quality of the fish is mediocre, to give you an idea, it’s just one cut above the boxes of sushi you find in the grocery stores.

And if you haven’t stuffed yourself enough, there’s a full salad section, and a full desert section. Personally, since i don’t have a sweet tooth, i would have liked to see more choices in main courses or sushi, rather than desert, although everyone seemed to recommend the jello

Service is decent, and fairly efficient. Note that on groups of 6 or more, then added a 12% service charge straight onto your bill. The prices are what makes this place worth it: buffet is $10 at lunch (less seafood choices) and $15 for dinner.
