On a budget, the value is unmatched at Asia Buffet. I love this buffet, it is very popular with us locals as the variety of several different asian dishes are available all you can eat for a flat fee. The Mongolian BBQ station is delicious, there is a good sushi bar, several different Asian dishes in the hot pan areas as well as a large selection of deserts/fruits. It is self service and you eat to your hearts content! Try a little bit of everything or indulge in your favorite dish! read more

I haven't been to this buffet in a very long time. My dad invited me to lunch here. I was a little skeptical because I know a lot of buffets changed after the pandemic. The selection is huge. I really enjoyed their clam chowder. And they're stuffed clams and spicy fried head-on shrimp. They have a wide variety of seafood, sushi rolls, noodles and appetizers and more. They also have fried chicken, mashed potatoes and even a Mongolian barbecue station. Lots of dessert options as well. Service was okay. But the lady that greeted us when we walked in Was very lovely. Lunch was $17.99. It was well worth it. I left feeling very satisfied. I will definitely come back read more

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. I love buffets. I love even crappy buffets like Golden Corral. This place wasn't just crappy, I am shocked they are able to stay open. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything is so dirty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was the worst food I have ever gotten at a buffet. We started feeling sick as we were eating our first plate. We ended up leaving before finishing just one plate. The parking lot is also atrocious. read more

1 minute read: This is the third time I've been here. Once with my wife and now, the second time with my brother, David. The Food: very well presented. Very well prepared. Good variety, making for a great selection. Tasty & satisfying. The Staff: The cashiers are bilingual (Chinese/English) the attendants are efficient but should smile more. The Parking: Is plentiful. For the price, the restaurant is good. Try it. read more

I was surprised with all the crabs and the roe inside... great selection of food and drinks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place would be a solid 4 star for two reasons... if staff let up with cleaning the food service areas... and second, if people were so comfortable bringing their poor personal hygienic habits to a public eateries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was happy to eat food that was newly brought out as I knew that it really hadn't been touched. But while waiting for some food items I'd watch as people would go around and serve themselves. Granted we came on Mother's Day weekend which may have been why there was so much going on. Here are a few examples of poor hygiene rants: 1. People getting sauce in their finger tips while holding serving spoons, putting their finger in their mouth to lick up the sauce and then grab another spoon with their licked finger to serve themselves [[HIGHLIGHT]]2. I watched someone spill some food in between two trays of food the use their finger to push it back in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I mean this concern could either be a staff cleaning the area or people being considerate and carefully putting food in.. or better yet just leave the food alone and don't use your fingers to place food into a tray that others are still trying to eat from. [[HIGHLIGHT]]3. People eat like it's the end of the world. Nothing wrong with getting seconds and getting a lot, but if the food is falling off your plate and onto the ground or back on to the food tray areas maybe get another plate?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 4. The crab was okay, but when I've eaten crab at other buffets, there's less "brown" stuff on the crab's outer shell and legs before being consumed while still being filled with roe on the inside. Once I saw these things being done, I was happy to be a bit more picky and wait for trays that were newly brought. All in all, can't fault people completely for being comfortable in a place that serve good food, a wide variety of options for low priced buffet. If you're not concerned about some of the things mentioned earlier, I'd say this place your be 4-5 stars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The venue is large and spacious, there's a huge parking lot outside, and the staff are hard working and making sure they keep the place fairly clean, getting people in and out, replacing low tray items, and bussing the tables consistently.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place can get very busy with a line out the door (we came for Mother's Day and it was super busy) and I wonder if it's like this on other days/weekends[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you for the good food, service, and lively atmosphere![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Decided to try this buffet and it was the worse decision . The food was cold, it tasted like it was sitting there for a while. The food quality was low. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While serving myself I can feel x-ray eyeballs starting right across the self serve station.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I wouldn't come back or bring anyone I know here again. Go at your own risk. read more

This place used to be a nice spot... but the quality has gone down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They even let mold grow in the ceiling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

People! Be very careful when you make your payment with a credit or debit card, today, February 14, my wife and I went to dinner at this buffet and when we made the payment for two people they charged us $54.85 and they gave us the receipt that amount actually appeared, but when the notification arrived on the cell phone they had charged us $548.59 dollars, when we realized we went and complained, the lady with glasses was very nervous, be very careful...And still the date is wrong read more

Asia Buffet - Dinner Buffet $22.99+ plus tx X2 =$50.46 - Chinese Near Me - Panorama City, California

$23.99 Asian seafood buffet on a Sunday is a great deal and I didn't expect anything spectacular, however I was pleasantly surprised! Our group of 4 was seated quickly and the dining area was large and VERY full of people. The buffet offered a large selection of sushi, traditional Chinese (walnut shrimp, orange chicken, beef broccoli) and unique seafood items. The food was continuously brought out and refreshed. My favorite was a tasty little crab and other shellfish like clams and mussels. The seafood soup was also very good. I came in with low expectations and was actually pretty happy with the food offered, variety, freshness and taste. I dont necessarily need to come here again but it was fun to try out. read more

The absolute best buffet I've ever been to! My gals and I came here for Friday brunch. We were hungry and looking for a bite after a long day of shopping. Wide selection of food available. I grabbed a little bit of everything. Pleasantly surprised by the taste. Flavorful and savory. Cashiers were nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good ambiance for the taste buds.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Recommend coming here if in the area. You won't be disappointed. read more

Although they had a good selection of food the food was okay I honestly expected more flavor or something from it but it wasn't all that bad.

Good food not to expensive. They have many choices and the service is very good as well it's not just Chinese it's Japanese and and stir fry it's so good read more

The location of it in that strip mall will really throw you off. But, Won't hurt to go in and judge the inside, not the outside. A couple of things they have that are new to me that you need to look out for: A) Drinks are included in the charge and it's SELF SERVE so get as much yourself as you'd like. B) You seat yourself down. After I paid I stood there for a minute for someone to seat me. Until The front gal told me just pick any table and sit. Okay?? That's weird to me. I kept asking myself, Have they never been so busy that people might just not find a place to sit? As soon as I walked in, It looked like a shithouse. People are everywhere LITERALLY on top of each other. Saw some people even eating some food off the plate before they made it to their tables, Kids running everywhere. The place was just OVER packed. The food is actually decent!!! I didn't experience cold food or flies on my food like other people in the reviews. However, Some of it is super BLAND. Stay away from the mashed potato!! The meat is 50/50. The broccoli beef was super hard and fatty. They had a chicken on a skewer that was really good. The seafood is 50/50 also. The shrimp was not that great which disappointed me. The crabs were VERY SALTY; dry your mouth completely as it touches it. But, The Fried octopus was super good and flavorful.The desserts warren's that bad either. Those little chocolate balls were good...Overall, Very salty, Very bland. But also there's some good stuff. (CHECK OUT THE LAST PICTURE WITH MY HAND NEXT TO IT. THAT'S THE PLATE WITH THE BEST STUFF YOU CAN GET THERE). The staff was actually great. I was welcomed as soon as I walked in, They always made sure that the plates were taken away and the table clean. Replacing the food occasionally. However, The only complaint is that the bathroom was disgusting and needs to be worked on. For the price of it + The location. Please do not go there expecting much. It's not a Las Vegas buffet or something. So, Naturally, not everything would be the best. Also, The food didn't have labels. I know everything would be obvious, But there was some stuff new to me that I didn't know what it was. And, Since I don't speak Spanish or Asian, I had trouble finding out what kind of food for most of them. But I figured it out !! Your boy's smart, lol Thank you Asia Buffet. Might stop by again if only I was in the area! read more

Best Asian buffet in the valley. I've been coming here since I was 14 years old. I'm now 26, and the food is still just as delicious. I've been to other Asian buffets and they do not compare to this place at all. read more

My friend invited me for her birthday. It was past 1 and the place was packed. We waited like half an hour to be seated. It was modest, plenty of foods to choose from, they kept filling up the serving stations. Plenty of tables. You have barely enough space to move around. I have been to better places though with good food and clean looking ones. read more

I love the ribs and their braised chicken and fried chicken wings. Mongolian barbecue not bad either. The sushi is better than a lot of buffets and the ice cream sandwich at the end always makes my trip complete. As far as the other food I really don't know. I fill up on sushi, seaweed, chicken wings and ribs. read more

I had a very unpleasant experience. I believe the seafood was the culprit. After consuming just two pieces of cold, stale fried calamari, I felt an urge to vomit. Although I managed to control it, I would strongly advise against ordering the seafood here. Potential Issues with the Seafood The calamari was not fresh. It was not cooked properly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was fine, and the plates and tables were clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is nice, with clean tables, although one chair had a minor hole.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The imitation crab was rubbery, but the ribs were thin and pretty good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The pudding was good, and the cups were clean, even with some water remaining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you don't like seafood, this place is a good option, as they offer a good variety of carbs like chow mein, garlic bread, and some breaded dishes. There's a dollar store next door, which is a nice bonus. read more

Its real tough to rate Asian buffets or even buffets in general. We all know that buffets are great to pig out and get a variety of food for a fixed price. Most places have mediocre selections or basic essentials of what majority of popularity is. We all know that the quality isn't high end or else we would be paying Vegas buffet prices. (but is their quality high end?) I can't say that Asia buffet is good nor bad. It gets the job done. The other night I took my mother out for some errands. Her and my dad used to go frequently but since he isn't around any more she doesn't have any one to go with. That night we passed by and ended up dining on the spur of the moment. We were greeted upon entry and seated right away. It was about 5:30pm and the place was full of people! Its been many years since I've gone back here and their layout and even entrance has changed. I can't compare the food selection from past to current but the typical items you would expect to see were there plus more. My mother who doesn't eat much these days had three rounds of food so I know she enjoyed it. As the time passed more people started to come in. Business seemed good which is great for the food to rotate and fresh reloads were coming in. (I think that is very important) Overall my mother and I had a great time. The only things I can point out was the service for picking up plates and my request for a water refill was very poor. They have a sign that tells you to wear gloves while serving yourself food, but there were no gloves to be found. The sushi rice needs rice vinegar mixed in. Lastly the place could use some interior touch up. VERDICT: Rinse and repeat (w mother) PARKING: Private lot in rear read more

Update on 2022/02/08: - you now have to pay for your meal up front when you come in, after which you are handed your utensils and you go pick your own table - Buffet lunch price was increased to $15.99 but now includes self-served soda fountain. There seems to be fewer servers now. Update on 2022/01/31: - Buffet price increased to $13.99 for weekday Lunch - They are now open7 days a week ----------------------- I used to eat here frequently but stopped in 2020 due to COVID-19, with indoor Dining available again, I took a chance and went there to see how they doing it. Every other table was marked off and they were careful with seating customers far apart, mask are required at all times except when eating, they provide disposable gloves customers are required to wear while getting food, the selection of food, and desserts are cut back but are still a wide selection, I miss the soft serve ice cream the fruits and dessert pastries were cut about half to what they were pre-Pandemic but still plentiful They limit each party's dining time to 1 hour All the workers wore mask and gloves, they were all friendly and professional. They cleared off my used plates and refilled my water promptly. The prices remained the same Update on 2021/10/27: The food selection is back to normal I took pictures of the food selections. read more

Awesome buffet. It's hard to find ayce buffets these days but this place is alive and kicking. Pay when you arrive. There's guys walking around collecting plates constantly so you can go refill as often as you like without having a crowded table. Kids loved the chocolate pudding. Sushi and French fries and ribs and chicken nuggets and classic Chinese food. I think there was even a Mongolian bbq station but I didn't check it out read more

Food not really good. Also, we forgot my babys bottle of water we went back 20 min after we left the waitress told me " no more no more, in the trash, gone " when I asked if I can check, she went in the 'kitchen' and she might insulted me in her language. NEVER again read more

I would rather pay $22 for one good plate of food than for a dozen plates of all you can eat tasteless food. Absolutely no flavor not sure how people can eat so much of this. Actually, I seen a lot of full plates being left on tables while people went back to buffet tables to find something else they can try. So obviously I'm not the only one that found no flavor in the food. Not sure what was worse, so much unflavored food or all the food that was being wasted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff, though, is friendly and they try to maintain a clean environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just a bunch of tasteless food. read more

For around $17 this place is great! Love the noodles, spare ribs, fried rice and fried dumplings. All the items tasted fresh for lunch and I like the wide variety of dishes.

The food here is very mediocre. Not much of a selection. The fried rice and lo mein taste nothing like what they do if you had them from a regular Chinese food place. Some of the food here taste fake, and some of the dishes taste exactly the same. There are no labels on the windows to describe what the dishes are so you're guessing. Not worth it. Better go home and make yourself some food or go to panda if you want Chinese. read more

I do not recommend this buffer, they do not comply with the health procedures since I had the misfortune to find a fly on my plate and very calmly they said oh it is just a fly that they were going to change the food which did not happen and if it was one more fly go ahead you can find if you will be mind very disappointed in this restaurant read more
