    Dear Mr Tsunami. Today my fam when to the beach. We wanted to stop and get some food before heading but It was getting later in the evening and many things had closed. Then we found your place. It had something for every one.. My daughter and wife were very happy to see the sushi rolls. I was delighted to see the hibachi grill and fresh fruit. There were also many popular Chinese dishes, as well as some American dishes, like hot wings, which I love and a couple seafood dishes. Some of the food needed to be refreshed but it was later and I know with food cost being what it is that it might not be easy to make a whole dish. For the price of $16 dollar an adult and $12 a kid it wasn’t bad. Your place is worth a visit if you have a group of people that like different stuff or just want a little of everything. The restaurant was over all clean and the staff was on top of refilling what was running out. There was many dessert to choose from plus ice cream that my little loves. It was Hersey and not an off brand so points for that. We would definitely visit again when we’re in the area. Hope to meet you next time.

    I’ve been here multiple times throughout the years. I think the sushi selection got a lot bigger. Overall the food was good. It’s a Chinese buffet with sushi made on the spot, so the quality and experience is always shifting. Yesterday was good but it wasn’t great that’s why I only gave them 4 stars. The fried rice was a bit undercooked and the crab sushi tasted funny. Everything else was good. The food selection was good they were constantly refilling the stations and you plenty to choose from. The service was great, no dirty dishes on the table and we never had to ask for drink refills. I will come back if I’m in the area and I’m craving Chinese food with some sushi on the side. If you are in the area give them a try, their hibachi is really good too.

    They have an amazing hibachi bar where you pick all the food you want and then they cook it in front of you. Also they have a good amount of sushi options, fruits, salads, and a ton of other food. They also have ice cream cups and give you a fortune cookie at the end.

    It seems there are two types of reviews. You either love it or hate it. Sorting by date you see a 5, then a 1, then another set of fives and ones, etc. There were 10 of us and we were seated immediately without a reservation. There were several large parties already seated but they still had one large table empty. As we were sitting down, they took our drink orders. The buffet line is huge. I posted 6 sections below but there are that many more, including a large section where you chose ingredients and they grill them up for you hibachi style. Lots of desserts, veggies and meat dishes. If you can't find something you like, then you are truly hard to please. It is a Buffet, so expect buffet food.

    Sweet & Sour Chicken, so crisp & perfectly golden brown on the outside, fluffy white meat cooked to perfection on the inside. The Spring Rolls were crunchy and seasoned just right. The stuffed mushrooms melted in my mouth. Crab Salad can't be beat. Best experience to date!
