It was lovely. The asian dishes were excelent, but the ‘american’ dishes, like the meatballs, and motz sticks, left much to be desired.

I have been here several times, and the quality is actually pretty good for a buffet of this type. The sushi is okay, they stick together so it can be difficult to separate out each roll, but again, it’s pretty good. The General Tso’s chicken and coconut shrimp are outstanding. Good selection, good value for the price. I know I get my $14 (tip included) worth just in sushi, salmon and shrimp. Not 5 star dining, but definitely 5 star value. And the staff are nice and attentive.

I went at 2pm, and the buffet had several empty dishes. The food I did have was good. Place was pretty clean. Service was okay. They did take my plates quickly, but while paying my bill, I got no smiles, a thank you or even, hope you come back. Also, they have posted all over, if you don’t finish your plate, you will be charged $15. Yes $15, made me feel a little uncomfortable and I didn’t feel like I was welcomed back.

First time here. The food was good and all but I started noticing little things that made me feel uncomfortable. The environment was good. They have upkept the place but what made me feel uncomfortable was the service. When I first entered I asked them what their prices were and if I could look around—let’s be honest, not every buffet is worth it. I liked what I saw and decided to try it out. What was odd was one of the ladies started hawking me down when I looked around for less than a minute—didn’t think much of it but it was weird. When I went to the hibachi I told the lady that the food was good so far and she said, “It’s one dollar tip for the steak.” Never had that happen before but okay, I tipped two dollars. I also noticed that they were not attentive. At the end of my wife’s and I meal, I noticed two of the workers arguing near the hibachi area in front of customers. Overall, the food was good, but I got a weird vibe eating there.

The question was why do you hate this place. This is a very Interesting question to say the least. do not hate this place. It is certainly not like it use to be, when the buffet was manage, well kept, and clean. The food tasted bland, undercooked and overcooked especially the shrimps on the main buffet. Sushi tasted as if they were frozen and thawed—no not fresh. I do not think it’s more deserving than a one until they change the attitude (mind) of caring for the people who patronized their establishment and serve. Yes, it’s tough in today’s society and Yes it’s easy in today’s society to be of service to one another. We have a choice to do good,mediocre,or bad. Get it together Habachi.

Super friendly wait staff and management. Good prices for lunch, all you can eat buffet for sure. If you leave hungry you did something wrong. They have an in house sushi chef making fresh sushi for no extra charge. They are a bit new to the area and have gotten flak in their past but I recommend them 100%.

This place is disgusting!! I have been there quite a few times trying to give it another chance and I have to say tonight was my LAST time there! Every time I go the food is cold and old. The chicken was cold, the rice was like rubber, the noodles were cold it was an overall terrible experience! When I told who I assume is the manager because she is always there and always on her phone she acted shocked and said “we never had complaints like this before” I find that hard to believe! I know old food when I see it and taste it. I’ve even been there when they first opened for the day and you can tell they didn’t make it fresh that morning. She gave us 10% off of the bill after she argued with us. She was asked where her health score was and she showed some business certificate. I will be calling the BBB and the health department. I hope they can help this place at least have hot food!

Worst Buffet & Service EVER!!! They have the grill in the back before you can even put the food on the plate the guy is asking for a tip! First off I don’t even know if I will like it so I will tip later plus I already paid for the buffet which this is included so why should I be forced to tip a rude person! Second the selection of food is not good at all. The shrimp were cold you could barely get the shell off them. Mozzarella sticks had no cheese in them, the free refills are included and they don’t even want to refill drinks and when they do they half fill the cup!! WILL TOTALLY NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE EAT HERE!! THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN!! They are so unprofessional they brought out big cans of veggies to restock the veggies and fruit right in front of everyone. Like really I can eat canned items from home. Never will be back.

I’ve been to several different hibachi buffet’s, as my job requires me to travel. This is the nicest restaurant out of all of the others! Their food is always hot, it always tastes fresh and I like the fact that they don’t put so much food out in one dish to where it sits there for long periods of time and drys out. Hands down the best place to eat!

Went back with the family to give them another try for dinner and wow! My kid, who is super picky, said it was his new favorite place. The wife and I loved it to! Everything was super fresh this time. They even have hand rolls for sushi! Love the ice cream too…
