Pan Asia Buffet

This buffet was great! It was very busy when we went, but they got us a table almost right away. They have a great variety of food, including a hibachi area. Food kept coming in hot and well prepared. The waiters were on top of keeping clean and being there to refill drinks. Would definitely come back!

Pan Asia Grill Sushi Buffet in San Marcos… listen carefully, because I don’t hype places unless they earn it. I walked in, paid $19 for lunch, and immediately thought, “okay, let’s see if this is another average buffet pretending to be something special.” I’m extremely picky. If it’s trash, I’ll say it straight. No mercy. First impression — solid. Clean, organized, no chaos. Salad section? Surprisingly fresh. Not the sad, tired lettuce you see in most buffets. Real crisp greens, good toppings, fresh fruit, and desserts that actually look edible, not like they survived since 2007. Now sushi at lunch… let’s be honest. It’s decent, but nothing that will change your life. It’s buffet sushi — acceptable, clean, but I’m not flying to Tokyo over it. HOWEVER… I already see the potential. I heard dinner brings out the heavy artillery — lobster, crab legs — so that’s the real battlefield, and I’ll be back to test that. But here’s where Pan Asia becomes dangerous. The Hawaiian BBQ / hibachi grill station. This is the crown jewel. You pick your meat, pick your vegetables, hand it to the chef, and he cooks it fresh right in front of you like a professional assassin. I went with hibachi steak, and my God… absolutely incredible. Perfectly cooked, juicy, flavorful, fresh — not buffet quality, restaurant quality. This alone destroys the $19 price. Completely unfair value. Bottom line — for lunch, this place already punches above its weight. Fresh food, huge selection, and that hibachi grill makes it worth the trip by itself. Sushi is decent at lunch, but I can already tell dinner is where they go full boss mode. I don’t praise easily. But Pan Asia Grill earned respect. I’ll be back for dinner to see if they reach full domination.

The Hibachi station was a highlight, but the sushi was just decent. The desserts were pretty good, with some great variety options. The staff was fantastic. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience – I'd definitely go back for the Hibachi!

Great Buffet. Nice variety of quality foods. The Hibachi was great! Everything was on point. Lots of vegetables in every dish. The sushi was good, and so are the deserts. About $21 a person on weekdays after tip and tax

This is my place to go for a variety of good quality, tasting food. Their lunch is value city. I come for the spicy beef tendon. Must try! The dinner is on point: My go toys are: 1.Sashimi sushi 2. Snow crabs 3. Seafood boil cajun/creole style with crayfish, shrimp, sausage & corn on the cob. 4. Simple salad bar but does the job 5. SOUPS (seafood soup, egg drop & hot & sour) 6. Steamed classic, but I like the broth as a soup 7. Cheesy croissant ( I saw a lady stuff it with ice cream, pudding, something creamy) The staff here are stellar 5 star Super hospitable!! I definitely recommend trying this place out. WARNING !!!! You may get addicted... Shout out to Yan, Kiki, Kimberly, & Julie Thank you ladies for keeping us coming back.

Food was delicious. Its a bit on the pricey side but they have salad, sushi, hibachi, Asian cuisine!! Lots to oick from, its worth it.

Came in around 7:30 on a Wednesday night, got seated right away without problems. Food was alright for a buffet house, nothing too crazy, but was enough to hit the spot. Had a “Mongolian” bbq type station where you can try a few different combinations of toppings with different types of meats. Lacked a variety of options for the normal buffet as everything almost looked the same or tasted near the same. Would I go out of my way to have this weekly? No. Maybe monthly if I’m in the area but overall it’s not bad for an average Chinese buffet.

A wide variety of dishes, including barbecue, fried dishes, sushi and sashimi. The environment is pleasant, the food is hygienic, and everything tastes delicious.
