We work in food service, and this was absolutely horrible. After great hesitation we decided to try out the buffet. The food on their hot tables looked day old and some was sitting in completely stagnant water. With my first bite, the food was cold. After a couple more bites my stomach was turning and I pushed my plate away. My boyfriend experienced the same nausea and barely took a couple bites. When trying to explain to the employees that their food had made me sick, they asked me "Why?" about 10 times. They did not apologize and were extremely rude, telling me "no, no, why?". I told them I was not paying for the few bites that had made us ill and we left. I'm an agreeable customer. I serve food for a living. I'm not an asshole of a customer. These people weren't having a bad day. The food was bad and the employees were rude. This was my worst restaurant experience to date. read more

Ordered delivery from here, received it before I expected to and it was hot and delicious. I got the teriyaki chicken (super juicy) and the egg foo young. Both meals were huge and a great price. If I'm ever in Chattanooga again I'll order from here! read more

Surprisingly, this place is very good. Espec for the value. Food was very fresh. Huge variety. Good sushi bar. Awesome hibachi grille, the guy can really cook. Crawfish, clams, shrimp, mussel, etc. It has it all. Very crowded so you know the place is good. I will definitely be back when I am in town again. read more

It was ok to mediocre. The food was luke warm. Sushi was pretty but not too tasty. I hope we don't get sick eating here. The signs for the food are old and hand written. How much are signs? We prayed and I hope he answers lol. I gave it 2stars because my hubby enjoyed the crawfish. The dessert was a no go. The sweet tea was bad. This buffet was only $7.50 but I wouldn't come back if it was $2.50. Some say you get what you pay for but I've eaten at cheap places with far better food. read more

Asia Buffet - Craw fish - Buffets Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

We find this place pretty solid and have paid return visits. For an all-you-can eat buffet, you get a pretty good deal. It's nothing fancy, just your everyday lunch place. But the food selection is pretty extensive, and they keep the trays filled. We seem to always find ourselves going for the same items. We like the sushi bar - sometimes they have these triangular makis dusted with masago that are good. Rainbow rolls, salmon/tuna with cream cheese are our preferred sushi because they aren't overwhelmed with sauce and because they contain raw fish. We like: hot & sour w/ scallion & fried noodle, chicken feet, shrimp shumai (from dim sum section), fried dough, stuffed mushrooms, all their stir fried veggies, shrimp cocktail, crawfish, hibachi, clams. Their fruits are pretty sweet and fresh. And of course, the dessert bar does not disappoint. Friends of our family won a car from their car giveaway! read more

Food is mediocre. They do have some unusual items for this area such as chicken feet but most dishes have very tough cuts of meat. Doesn't seem very fresh either. Greeter gentleman very unfriendly and somewhat rude at checkout. Didn't even acknowledge my thank you at check out. read more

I thought I would give this a 2nd try and lets just say it has not improved. I did order it dinnerdelivered and got here. The fried rice was white rice with some peas and carrots thrown in. Egg rolls had very little filling and hard as leather. The shrimp in lobster sauce was mostly water and lumpy. The sweet n sour chicken was nothing more than chicken nuggetz with tons of generic breading. Not a good ecperience. Should have not tried it again. read more

This was my first visit to Asian buffet. All the food was delicious, I especially liked the duck. I did not try any of the raw seafood. I thought the price was decent. My only negative comment is the place is old and the tables and walls need cleaning. read more

Went there last night. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive and food was excellent except ribs which were just a little dry but still good. We will definitely be back. read more

Asia Buffet is open and in total compliance with CDC standards. The dining area has been remodeled. Food is served cafeteria style and is very good. My new favorite! read more

VERY RUDE!! Got COLD chicken on the buffet and the old man came by the table and asked why my friend didn't eat it, which was weird. He told the man that it was cold and he said he would heat it up. My friend declined as he did not want old microwaved chicken. The man flew off on us talking about how "AMERICANS WASTE FOOD"!!....We left and will NEVER be back!!!! read more

Pretty decent buffet. It actually had all the things you would see in a Asian populated area buffet. Hence, this buffet just didn't just throw things together to just call a buffet. And they actually have more of the not so typical dishes. Which is A+ because most cheap buffets in non Asian towns usually serve the typical. read more

Good food for the price but the place is disgusting. The carpet smells and is very old, the booths are falling apart and there are holes in some of the walls. Instead of spending so much money in advertising they should put it into fixing the.place and bringing it into the 21st century. read more

You know I use to love this place back when it first opened and they seemed to care about how the place looks. It seems now they let the food take a hit as much as they let the dinning room fall apart. Booths all over needing repair wile we have to sit amongst them. I'm not happy with this place any more in the least. I use to tell everyone all about it and send them that way but since the owners can not keep up with the demand and they are clearly making planet of money then I will not eat in an establishment they choose not to repair. Their food just like there atmosphere really sucks as well. I don't suggest it and u am looking for a new Asian buffet and eatery that will match what they originally brought to the table. Goodbye Asian buffet your horrid exstirior has been around long enough that your customers will no longer pay to suffer your destruction. read more

Just ate at Asia buffet in lee hwy.. It was rated 4 stars so I gave it a try after a long Memorial Day. We couldn't decide what to eat so we picked a buffet. They had signs stating they were picked the best buffet in Chattanooga..... Let me star by saying there's like 2-3 buffet in this town and that must be the reason... I'll been to many buffet and I know buffets aren't always clean but this place is absolutely ridiculous. First they don't say hi and brings out drink 15min of eating. Then the owner comes by and trying to sell some cheap toys and fake jewelry. Their food? Hmmmm looks like leftover, foods all dry. Some trays are empty... U have to ask to get the food. Spoon and forks are dirty!! Will not come back. If I had money I would open a buffet much better then this. I hope this helps for some customer. Everyone is different but for me not a good place to go. Oh btw sushi is not worth it!! U will be sick! Hope this help someone read more

Asia Buffet - This is egg soup and taste like hot water! - Buffets Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

It's okay. The food can be a hit or a miss depending on when you come in. I would recommend it for a cheap bite but the overall quality and taste is mediocre. read more

So I've come to the conclusion that most buffets are the same...nothing great and nothing bad. This was typical. Lots of choices, food was warm, but not a lot of everything. Do not recommend the low mein; too much oil, not as much taste. Sushi bar offered plenty of options! read more

This place has excellent fresh hot Chinese food if you don't come too late for dinner. If you come early...say early lunch or early dinner you will have the fresh selections . read more

very disappointed! we've called in to ask for price and they told us dinner will be $9.99 or $11.99 with crab leg, so my group decided to go there. And when we were finished our dinner, they charged us about $140 something (group of 11, it means $11.99/person) but we didn't have crab leg. So we try to argued with them to try to fix price, they took out $1 each person, and they said we ate seafood (crawfish) so they charge $10.99, but they didn't told us about that before. Terrible! Food is old & dry, some dish didn't taste good either. My friend ordered coke ($1.80), and the bill come out $12.90, while I just order water but my bill was $12, wonder how?!?!? read more

I have to say I have been here many times but will not return for a long time if ever! Seems to be going down hill! Last week I went about 5 PM...not a lot of people there so I understand why there wasn't fresh food put out but there again that could be why so few!! Everything I had was dried out and old and even some empty trays! read more

I seem to stick to the sushi end of The Hibachi Grill and don't eat much off the rest of the buffet. But it seems I keep coming back at least once a week so they're doing something right. read more

Typical Asian buffet. Always a go to when I'm on the road as I can get a good veggie fix on. Lots of hot items and fresh fruit. I wasn't at all disappointed. Reviewers who seem to expect something fabulous are in the wrong place. Fixtures are worn, carpet is threadbare but the food is plentiful and there is plenty of variety. One reviewer raved about the cake and it WAS very good. read more

The food and selection was good. The only thing I found negative was the fact they had oysters on the half shell but, the entire hour I was there they were never restocked. One oyster shell remained in the iced area. More was never brought out. read more

The food is good. Squid, Kimchi and fried whole tilapia are excellent. Lots of vegetables and fruits for a health meal. The servers are friendly, but the cashier is rude. I asked her questions twice, she answered me abruptly and impatiently. Even my good-natured husband felt uncomfortable. One thing strange is our check is different every time, and there is never a break-down to show tax and drinks. It seems that they just estimated the amount since for two people it's not much money. read more

Worst restaurant. The food tastes horrible and the servers are extremely rude and incompetent. They quoted us a certain price for our party and raised it $3 per person when we got there. Since we had a group of 70 people, we couldn't just turn back and leave. At the end, after the price hike and horrible service (where I was having to fetch silverware, napkin and drinks for me guests), I tipped only 10%. I had the waitress yell at me for not giving her enough tip for their horrible service. read more

This place has a lot of variety whether you like Asian or american style food. They only thing I didn't like was my seat was broken and the desert was stale but over all I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Asian food. read more

Just went to this restaurant with my family. It was horrible the food was cold, things were not refilled sushi was old. When I asked the person when we were leaving why there was not a lot of food and what is out is old, her reply was the manager wasn't there to night to make people work. read more

Food was hard and over cook，and the lady who works by the buffet bar was so rude.i don not recommend this place.

Terrible. Looks great when you first walk in but the food is all cold, bland, low quality. Also, I'm vegan and when I called ahead to make sure there tofu, they emphasized that there were several dishes out with tofu, but when I arrived, I noticed there was no tofu at all. The was a sign for tofu sushi but it was only seaweed and rice. The server just kept flirting with the table next to me and the atmosphere seemed pretty unprofessional woth everyone gossiping in another language. All in all - terrible experience and I wont be going back. read more

This used to be my favorite Asian place, but they have let it go down so badly. It is dirty and dark, the decor is awful, even the front door is broken. EEEW read more

First issues was place did not seem very clean. Server was rude at best, I asked about pepper steak to our server, and waited 30 minutes and heard nothing back. Finally asked her again and she said they said no. Would have been nice to know ahead of time. No pork fried rice, quite a bit of American food on the buffet too. Then the sweet and sour sauce tasted like flat beer which I've never experienced anywhere else. From the duct tape on the door to dirty floors and ceilings and bad food with horrible customer service we won't be back. The prices are not good enough to make up for the bad experience. read more

This place is nasty and creeps me out to eat in. The floors are filthy, tables, walls and countertops are dirty as well as the dishes and silverware. I do not understand why people eat there. Plus, on top of it all it is a bit steep. The entire time i was in there I was searching around for bugs expecting any minute that one would crawl out on to the table. I will never go there again. read more

Me and a friend just had lunch here and a roach was crawling up the glass beside us. We kept an eye on it then the waitress walked by and scooped it up bare handed. We're done. So gross! read more

Great selection and you can't beat the price!!! great service and the hibachi grill is of the chain!!!!!!!!!!

My boyfriend and I went there to eat and they charge us extra money just because I ate three oysters... I asked the person right next to me , I asked her how much was her charged... She said $9.99 per person the same as she told me but when it was time for me to pay she told me that it was $11.99 per person . I didn't mind paying two more dollars but I wanted to asked why they charged me more when they didn't have a sign that says I had to pay extra for eating three oysters... Yet she told me if I didn't like it to " not come back ". I am sorry , but is that your way of treating a guesst ? I know for a fact that you don't tell your guesst to not come back... I was more mad that she didn't reason with me yet instead she just told me to not come back.. I am very dissapointed and I will NEVER go back . read more

When I eating lunch at the restaurant ，they forced charging me $13 (on the website is $8.49) , they don't help me to take the dirty dishes, but forcing me to pay for nearly half of the tips and tax! and they didn't gave me a receipt!!! read more

For a buffet their food is actually pretty good with a lot of variety. But their service is so terrible I will never go again. The waitress was not very nice or helpful. And to top it all off she "LOST" my credit card. Seriously! After waiting 10 minutes for her to bring it back ( during which time she ignored me) I gave up and went to the front desk. They searched everywhere for it but never found it (at least while I was there). The manager then apologized profusely, sort of awkwardly hugged us but rushed us out the door and told us to go cancel the card. That's it!!! I should have filed a police report .........never again. read more

Disgusting. Went for lunch this week with a group of 5 work people. All of us agreed it was terrible and one person stopped eating after one bite. Chewy soggy meat, or too full of skin and sinew instead of chicken meat. All 6 of us said we would never go back. read more

Worst Chinese restaurant I have EVER been to. I was in town for class at VW and was craving Chinese. Saw some good reviews for this place. The minute I walked in I was hit with a really strong bleach smell and as j walked across their little bridge by the entrance I felt like I was going to slip and fall any minute due to it being socked in what felt like grease but I'm sure was just the greasy bleach mop water they used to clean the floors. Then when I got to the main dining area the place was deserted. It looked extremely dirty and the carpeting was falling apart. All the seating looked like it had been in disrepair for years. When I was seated it felt like almost fell through the bench seat due to it being broken. At first glance at the food I was scared for my stomach. I got some fried dumplings and some chicken on a stick. The food was ice cold and dried out. I got some general Tso's chicken which was also cold and dried out. Then the bill came and o was astounded by the balls to charge $15. This place is disgusting and awful. Avoid at all costs! I don't know where these people are at that put up good reviews but it wasn't the Asia buffet. Your better bet would be getting food from the pizza place next door that looked packed. Btw I am writing this as I am destroying my hotel toilet. read more
