This place is great, I don't know why they are getting so many low reviews. I have been here quite a few times. There prices are awesome, and the food is good. Some dishes could be kept a little warmer, but overall, I have never had a bad experience. read more

I think of a question I would want to ask the owners here: "Would you eat this food?" I understand buffet food is not the most luxurious, but at least put some effort. This is like cheap 1980s Chinese buffet...or British-Chinese as opposed to American-Chinese. My first plate had General chicken, "hibachi" chicken, and rice. The general chicken was just sweet on sweet...no other flavoring, and definitely no spice. The Hibachi chicken simply tasted of soy sauce. Disappointing to say the least. My second plate looked like an 8 year old's. Pizza, fruit, and chicken on a stick. The chicken was dry, and as I work soon, a dentist run before I clock in was not feasible. The pizza tasted sweet also, and had random plastic on it. I'm leaving now, feeling I just wasted money, and need to get some food in my belly before work. Stay far away... read more

My wife, my two young adult children, and I tried Captain Buffet on Mother's Day because we have been to most of the Chinese buffets around the Citrus Heights/Roseville area and wanted to give this place a chance. I understand how buffet restaurants work. Many of them use bulk foodservice suppliers, frozen or pre-prepped items, sauces, rice, seafood, appetizers, and steam-table holding equipment. That is normal for the buffet industry. I am not expecting fine dining from a buffet. But even with bulk or frozen ingredients, the food still needs to look fresh, be properly rotated, clearly labeled, held at the right temperature, and presented in a way that makes customers comfortable eating it. Unfortunately, this place did not meet that basic standard for us. The restaurant felt small and not very warm or welcoming when we walked in. The buffet selection was limited, and most items looked like the same basic Chinese buffet food, but with very little care in presentation. The sushi was dry and tasted like it may have been thawed or sitting too long. The hot food did not have much flavor, and some items looked unappealing before we even tried them. The Mongolian beef and steak area was especially disappointing. The steak was not clearly labeled, so customers could not tell what kind of meat it was, and some of it looked grayish and room-temperature. The fried chicken wings were very dark and overly crispy on the outside, but when opened, the inside looked yellowish instead of fresh white meat, so we decided not to eat them. Even simple items like fried rice looked cheap and unappetizing. It had a yellowish color and did not look like proper fried rice. Again, I understand buffets are built around volume and cost control, but food should still look fresh, safe, and appetizing. For over $26 per person, this was not worth it. I would not recommend Captain Buffet. read more

Came here for lunch and wasn't quite sure what to expect, but overall it just didn't hit for me. When I walked through the buffet line, a good number of the trays were empty and it took a while for staff to refill them with fresh food. It made the selection feel limited during my visit. In terms of taste, much of the food reminded me of standard cafeteria-style dishes -- filling, but nothing particularly memorable. I was also disappointed that seafood wasn't being served around the time I came (around 2:00 PM), especially since reviews suggest that's one of their stronger offerings. The restaurant itself appeared on the smaller side. The ambiance gave me more of a casual, neighborhood home town buffet vibe. Based on this experience, I'm not sure I'd return, but it may be worth trying during a busier service time when more items are fully stocked and seafood is available. read more

Very impressed by this Chinese buffet. The cost is about $28 per person, for full buffet enjoyment and drink, includes the tax. I went in hoping to like at least 50% of the items I tried, but I actually really enjoyed the majority of their buffet menu! It's not a huge buffet, but they have a lot of variety and the food is very flavorful. The items that stand out are the honey walnut shrimp, the green beans, the sushi with the cream cheese, the garlic shrimp, and I would say the hot sour soup! But there's a lot I didn't get to try (this is despite getting up a total of maybe 4 time to get more food). The restaurant itself was pretty busy, definitely a family-friendly vibe, I'd say the staff was friendly and quick to remove used plates from our tables. The only reason I give it a 4 instead of 5 is because the floor wasn't as clean as I think it should have been, I saw scraps of garbage and food in very visible areas but the employees didn't pick it up during my time there. This won't deter me from going again though :) read more

I came over on a Saturday at noon, and they weren't that busy. I was surprised. On the weekend, it's the dinner menu all day long, and it's about $27 and change after tax, which includes your drink, and that's not bad. They do offer a senior discount if you are over 65. It is a smaller buffet, but they did have lots of choices. They had a salad bar, a decent sized, dessert bar, a good sushi section, and a Mongolian BBQ/hibachi station. They had. American choices, such as french fries, fried chicken, pizza. And your normal Chinese choices like broccoli, beef, pepper, beef, etc.... They also have a few dim sum selections. I tried the siu mai, and it was OK, but nothing spectacular. They had three different soups. I tried the tamarind soup, but to me, it was a bit too sour. I know that that's the nature of tamarind, but I thought they would "zhuzh it up", to make it a little bit more savory. In fitting with the name of the restaurant, they had a lot of seafood. Fresh crab legs. Fried crab, "Crab" and cheese, which is actually a fish called surimi. You will often see it called " Krab." They had oysters on the half shell, and they had stuffed oysters. They had crawdads, And they even had snails! The snails were very good, but they were pretty spicy, and I wish they would've marked that the way they marked that the crawdads were spicy. I didn't go for the crawdads. They had baked salmon They had shrimp several ways, including peel and eat, fried shrimp, and coconut shrimp, which I absolutely love. Apparently the peel and eat shrimp and the fried shrimp were not deveined, I know that's not a big deal, I'm just not a fan of eating "shrimp poop." Overall, I thought it was a good meal. I would like to come back at lunchtime sometime, to see what the difference in the menu is. Lunchtime the price is less. Thanks. read more

It was a 10/10 for me! Now, this isn't The Bacchanal but it definitely hit the spot! I wanted a Chinese buffet and this was exactly what I needed. I thoroughly enjoyed the chilled snow crab legs. The meat was sweet and plump. The raw oysters were fresh and clean! Captain has a variety of Chinese dishes like the fried rice, chow mein, honey walnut shrimp and dim sum. 10/10 They had Japanese food like an array of sushi rolls, sashimi and baked giant oysters. Bomb! My other favorite dishes were the crawfish, fried blue crabs, fried salt & pepper shrimp and the corn. They also had sinigang soup for the Filipinos out there. All in all, I'd definitely come back again. They're very clean here and constantly wiping, cleaning and replenishing items. read more

The price was phenomenal! For my husband and I with drinks under $55 Lots of variety. The muscles were good Not a fan of trying to get crab out but honestly it taste great. Did you know they have a Mongolia bar as well. You can't add your sauces but be careful when asked if you want hot. Hubby said his was too spicy hot and he loves spicy. 4-5 You go right in get your seat. Quickly. Big establishment open floor plan. Options for kids etc. Did not like the crab cheese thing. I did not try the soups. Shrimp cooked was 5-5 Service 4-5 They didn't clear the table right away. I do believe they were busy in the back. Please take cash to leave a tip on table. They do have you sign credit card etc. Value wise etc. 4-5 super happy this place is here! Will be back read more

I'll definitely the food definitely the hospitality and just it's just wasn't a good place to eat Chinese food.

This will be my first ever post without pictures or videos. Parking is plenty Restaurant is super clean and spacious Bathroom is clean and stocked Service is 5/5 Ambiance is 5/5 light music in the background and restaurant atmosphere is quiet even with guests Food is 2/5 most of the food were salty. A couple of things didn't give this old lady extra elevated pressure but if the restaurant cooks can be easy on the salt I believe the food will be eatable. The reviews go this place is pretty low and I can see why. Customers don't come flocking in due the reason of the food because the price is cheap with drinks included. That is another thing that I suggest owners take a look at due to the fact that not all customers drink fountain drinks and just water. Besides that I believe the location is great due to heavy traffic and can easily drag in customers. Thanks for reading read more

Celebrated my Uncle's birthday and he said he wanted to go to a buffet in town and of course I'm going to accommodate. Saw this place was new and just opened, taking over where Cracker and Barrel was. Upon entering the place was clean. Still brand new vibes. We paid and then sat down. The food was okay for the most part but it's a buffet so don't expect too much. Avoid the oysters at all cost. All in all, this was a good one time experience. I say come to the grand opening and find out for yourself. read more

If you've ever wondered what disappointment tastes like, Captain Buffet in Sacramento offers a full, all-you-can-eat serving. At first glance, the buffet looks promising -- a wide selection of dishes neatly lined up, almost convincing you that you're in for a treat. Then you actually taste the food. The sushi has a unique dryness that could only be achieved by hours of patient neglect, and the fried items somehow manage to be both soggy and overcooked at the same time -- an impressive feat, really. The hot dishes are lukewarm, which is perfect if you enjoy playing "Guess How Long This Has Been Sitting Here." Even the fried rice and lo mein, which are usually safe bets at buffets, were oddly bland, as if someone had gone out of their way to remove every trace of flavor. Dessert? Well, the cakes tasted like they came from a freezer, which I suppose they probably did. The fruit wasn't bad... if you didn't mind it looking tired. On the plus side, the staff was polite, though they seemed just as underwhelmed by the food as I was. For the price, I'd hoped for at least one dish worth going back for. Unfortunately, Captain Buffet will not be getting a second visit from me -- once was more than enough. read more

I really want to give this place a chance. I met up with some friends for dinner. You pay when you first get in. There is 5% service charge added to the check. The drinks are included. They have Pepsi but no coke. I opted for their unsweetened ice tea. This place seems to have a variety of food choices. I was trying to avoid the seafood just in case. They have sushi and a lot of staple Chinese dishes, coconut shrimp, Beijing beef, kung pao chicken, etc. Everything felt very salty to me. Surprisingly, their homemade pizza was good. The staff was nice, and I saw them restocking food and dishes. They have an ice cream freezer, which includes little cups of ice cream; some are fat free but not sugar free. Overall, probably not worth the dinner price. Lunch prices seems more fair. read more

Kind of annoyed. We came in at 11:30, the TV for the menu prices were NOT on. I paid 61.40 for two people and was kind of confused as online it says 23.99. AFTER i asked about it, she said "oh the prices are actually 26.99 theres nothing i can do about it." Then turned the tv on to show the prices. We sat down and ate anyways and it was okay. The rice, cheese muscles and egg drop soup were actually pretty good. Had a hard time opening the crab legs though. They were a bit over cooked:( read more

I was really disappointed with my experience at Captain Buffet. The service was poor from the moment we arrived, and unfortunately the food situation didn't improve things. Many of the trays were empty and not being refilled regularly. We had to repeatedly ask for more crab legs, and even then it took quite a while before anything was brought out. A lot of items also had "Dinner Only" signs on them even though we were there during dinner hours (around 7pm), which was confusing and frustrating. The food itself was very inconsistent. Many dishes were extremely spicy, while others had almost no flavor at all. On top of that, several common buffet items you'd expect to see were missing entirely, like sweet and sour chicken or crab and cream cheese wontons. Another thing that stood out was seeing the Asian staff eating fresh hot food from the back while customers waited for the buffet trays to be refilled. Meanwhile, the Hispanic employees were taking food directly from the buffet as their lunch meals. Why wasn't the Hispanic staff invited to eat with the Asian staff? It was clearly noticeable and super disturbing. Overall, the experience felt unorganized and poorly managed. Between the lack of refills, confusing signage, and inconsistent food quality, this is not a place I would return to. If you're looking for a much better buffet experience in the area, I highly recommend Hibachi Buffet and Sushi & Grill or Yummy Buffet Grill instead. read more

I do like the location (Old Cracker Barrel). We don't have many buffets in North Sacramento specifically Natomas area within this price range. The options are limited. Hot food was what I expected for a buffet. I never touched the sushi or soup and the hibachi is spaghetti noodles. I stuck to the seafood and thought it was worth it. Bring your own pepper sauce! Service was great. Went during a weekday before 5pm with a big group and didn't have any issues with seating. read more

First of all I thought it was kind of weird because place was almost empty now This is worst buffet experience I ever had every food that I ate it was dry looks like he's been sitting out for a long time and I just wasted $27 and I mean all I had was a clams Crawdaz and mussels and oysters and they were all dry and I didn't need to taste no more food because if those things were dry what the rest of food is gonna be like and I'm just one customer but I'll never go back to this place no wonder they were empty read more

This place is where Cracker Barrel use to be. Parking is great no problem plenty of parking in the lot. We went on Wed for dinner. Third day that they have been open. Place is clean. We got there at 5:30, there was no wait. (Photos taken at 5:30-5:40). By 6:15, there was a long line to pay & long line to be seated. The place was packed and tables all full. Maybe because of new opening hype. $26.99. Wed dinner. You pay when you enter and children pay based on their height. I am not a fan of this paying when you enter because how do you know how much to tip? There is no incentive for good service. Luckily I can say that service was great and every few minutes someone came by to take the finished plate. So there was no problem there! Soda is included, Pepsi products. You fill your drink yourself. Hibachi grill: you pick your noodle quantity, meat, veggies and then pass the plate to the person through the window and tell them spicy or not and yes or not to garlic. the meat slices were cut larger and thicker and thus cooked longer. One of my party members described it as: you need really strong teeth to chew it. Seafood: Snails were large which we liked. Typically they aren't so large. There was crawfish as well. Snow crab. Fried calamari was good size and nicely fried. Restock was good for all seafood. Soup options: miso soup, hot and sour soup. They were ok. Sushi: we noticed when it restocked that it seemed like it rotated/changed for the sushi rolls. There was a few sashimi, mainly tuna and salmon Fruit bar: Oranges. Honeydew. Pineapple. Cantaloupe. Bananas. Watermelon. Jello. Fruit quality is ok not bad. Generic dessert bar. The ice cream was individual containers: vanilla, chocolate, orange sherbet, lime sherbet. For the price, we pay and since it's buffet I was expecting a soft serve machine. Food restocking was relatively quick so no complaints here from my party. Bathrooms clean and fully stocked. It's fun to go to check out for the first time. But due to slightly higher cost for Sacramento area and what we get, none of my party members would come back a second time. read more

Updating my review from my experience on Valentine's Day (February 14th). While I know it was a busy day, there was no excuse in us being seated at a table that was already given to another family. We asked for a high chair multiple times, and it was never brought to us. My husband had to go to the back and grab it himself. The food was not refilled timely. And, the bathrooms were the absolute worst. I let the staff know that the hand soap in the women's restroom was empty. They never sent anyone to replace it. Imagine all those diners walking around with hands not properly washed at a buffet let alone the staff. Captain Buffet was understaffed for this day (one of the most popular dining holidays of the year). Please do better. read more

Captain Buffet - Crab legs and shrimp - Buffets Near Me - Sacramento, California

2 Adults: Total Cost: $62 (Drinks included) Captain Buffet is a newly opened Chinese seafood buffet located in Sacramento, offering a wide selection of Asian cuisines--including Chinese, Japanese, and Mongolian dishes. We visited on a Saturday afternoon, and while we didn't wait long to be seated, the restaurant was bustling with large groups, which is expected for a fresh opening. **First Impressions** The buffet occupies a building that formerly housed a Cracker Barrel, and this is still evident from its exterior and overall interior design. The restaurant hasn't undergone much aesthetic transformation, which gives it a slightly mismatched feel in terms of ambiance for an Asian seafood buffet. Upon entry, payment is required upfront at the front desk (located to the right), which is a smart move to deter dine-and-dash situations. Guests have the option to tip during this payment process or leave a cash tip at the table. **Food & Selection** The food variety was impressive, especially for seafood lovers. Some highlights included: **Sushi & Sashimi** **Snow Crab Legs** **Baked Cheese Mussels** **Garlic Oysters (cooked)** **Raw Oysters** **Cajun Crawfish** **Stir-Fry Noodles** **Mongolian BBQ Station** While the flavor and freshness were generally good, the experience was hindered by long waits and confusion around the more popular stations. Desserts, on the other hand, were underwhelming. Options included basic pastries, fresh fruits, and small cups of standard-flavored ice cream. There was nothing particularly unique or memorable in the dessert selection, and it felt like an afterthought compared to the main buffet offerings. **Service & Efficiency** Staff were polite and helpful, though clearly overwhelmed by the large crowds. The lack of organization at key stations--particularly the snow crab and Mongolian grill--created chaos and frustration among diners. Key Issues & Suggestions for Improvement: 1. **Snow Crab Station Management** The snow crab was clearly the star attraction, but the lack of staff oversight led to overcrowded, disorganized lines with people forming multiple queues from different directions. **Suggestion:** Assign a staff member to portion and serve 3-4 clusters per plate. This will improve fairness, reduce congestion, and cut down on wait times. 2. **Mongolian Grill Confusion** The Mongolian grill is located near the snow crab section, and lines often merged, leading to confusion. **Suggestion:** Use floor markers, signs, or barriers to clearly indicate where each line begins and ends. A buzzer or paging system could alert guests when their grilled dish is ready. 3. **Self-Serve Drink Station** The cups available for drinks were sometimes greasy or poorly cleaned, and supplies were running low. **Suggestion:** Have the host or server hand out the appropriate number of clean cups when guests are seated. Alternatively, keep cups behind a staffed counter to maintain hygiene and limit overuse. 4. **Time Limit and Guest Monitoring** There was no clarification at the entrance or on the receipt regarding how long guests could stay. We noticed a group at a nearby table swapping out diners mid-visit, with new guests walking in and sitting down without check-in. **Suggestion:** Clearly state time limits at the front desk (e.g., 90 minutes per party), and train staff to monitor tables to prevent misuse of seating. 5. **Air Circulation & Ventilation** * The dining area became very hot and uncomfortable with the crowd size. **Suggestion:** Ensure the HVAC system is properly functioning, or consider leaving some doors open slightly during peak hours for airflow or adding swap coolers for additional assistance to cool down seating areas. 6. **Décor & Ambiance** * The restaurant currently lacks a cohesive theme or decor. **Suggestion:** Add modern Asian-inspired design elements to elevate the dining experience and distinguish the space from its previous identity as a Cracker Barrel. **Final Thoughts** Despite the operational kinks, Captain Buffet has great potential. The variety and quality of food were solid, and the pricing--at about $31 per person after tax with drinks included--is reasonable for what's offered. However, the current lack of organization around popular stations, poor air circulation, and limited staff management detracted from the overall experience. Desserts, unfortunately, felt uninspired and could benefit from more creative or higher-quality selections. We plan to return in the future, ideally once the initial hype has subsided and the restaurant has had time to improve its layout and service flow. With some adjustments, Captain Buffet could easily become a top-tier buffet destination in Sacramento. read more

If I could give this a 3.5/5, I would. I showed up for the Saturday lunch and was there for about 45 minutes. The place is huge, and even when it pretty much immediately became packed there was no shortage of tables for people to sit at. It was also clean, which is great. The staff seemed to be on it the entire time I was there: No plates I finished stayed at the table for long, the staff was friendly and always moving. The food itself is fine. It's a pretty standard-issue buffet. Nothing was bad, but there wasn't anything that was knock-your-socks-off amazing either (Granted, I didn't get the chance to check out the grilled-to-order food section). It did have a very big selection of food, and I'd think there has to be something for everyone there. Overall, I had a good time. I ended up paying $30 after taxes. This is probably a good place to bring family because of the variety of food and friendly staff. read more

There was such a high hope to visit this new buffet. Upon arrive you have to pay first which isn't a big deal. The prices are a bit more than expected. But you hope for the best. Here we go...are you ready? The crab was so very inviting as you browse the entrees. There are two different types that give you high hopes. But as you sit down with your plates it becomes apparent that this is going to an ordeal. The crabs are a labor of love as you try to get a good bite. Trying is the word. The legs are on the small size. The sushi is alright. Not the greatest but edible. What got me were the sushi with the green, yellow and black eggs. Each a different taste. Interesting at best.(I've included a picture of them) My best items were the buns. They were great. There wasn't much more that I wanted to try. Although the sea snails were interesting. Very chewy. read more

Today was our first time trying this place and the food quality was really poor. I think the empty parking lot should have been our first clue and red flag. All of the meat included the crabs were SO dried out it was inedible. The crab meat literally stuck to the shells! And the service was basically nonexistent. They have a measuring wall to measure your child and will charge your child's plate based on their height. They also have a sign on the wall that you have 90mins to eat before you will be asked to leave! lol... I have been too many buffets in my life, and both the height charge and time limit in restaurant was a first. I am not usually one to make a review it I wish someone would have made a review about these things when I had looked at the yelp reviews. Every single thing all the way down to the WHITE rice was not cooked properly or overcooked. read more

All entrees were dried out, and we went an hour after they opened, so don't know if the items were truly fresh...or leftovers from the previous day? No flavor, self serve instant coffee/ teas/ soft drink. First and last time here :( read more

I've been here a few times, it's honestly hit or miss. When they first opened it was delicious, constantly restocked, and dinner had many many options! I've since been back for lunch and dinner again but lunch honestly isn't worth the price to me.. way less options. Dinner is okay since my first time but service is not the same. Not really sure if I'll ever be back but I hope they improve as we need a good buffet around here! read more

Went in around 5:30 pm and the food were leftovers from lunch. Everything was dry, crab was cold (from the hot food section), the oysters were harder than the sole of my shoes, the fried shrimp was dry as hell, and the green mussels with cheese had tiny meat because it's been on the steam table for so long it shrunk. Two things were ok: hot and sour soup & chicken skewer. I'm NOT coming back to this dump and waste $30! read more

Came to this place with my family while I was in town for the weekend since I keep seeing it on social media. First, of all my expectations were not super high given that most Chinese buffets typically serve the same items everywhere. I thought this place was one of the better ones because it was pretty clean inside despite the large crowds. The steamed oysters were amazing! They were flavorful and didn't have any sand in them like some other places. This place is amazing for the variety and flavors. To be honest, I thought I would be really thirsty after since it tasted really good. I didn't have to drink too much water afterwards. Props for not using too much, if any MSG. Overall, a pleasant experience for a place that just opened. There definitely could be some improvements with some of the dishes, but like any buffet things are gonna be a hit or miss. 27.99 is a steal in my opinion. read more

Hello, I had a group with me, and we had a terrible experience. The service was terrible; the workers were all on their phones, and plates were still on the table. We even had to ask to restock because nothing was being brought out. The workers stared us down because we had asked when the restock would happen since there was no food available. The food is one star; it is not fresh at all, very cold, and has been sitting for hours. We just wanted something fresh. The prices aren't true to online it says 23 and each person came up to 30. Never will go again definitely had better. read more
