I was asking my friend that I'm visiting up here if there were any Chinese buffets that are so…read morecommon in CA. He said there was this one called Mandarin Buffet and Grill. So off we go to check it out. It's right off the freeway, I forget which one since I'm not driving. The buffet is located in a shopping center with lots of parking. I think there's a Thai restaurant across the parking lot from here. We go in and wow, this is a nicer buffet than most other one's I've been to. The dining area is very large and clean. I see the prices on a sign. Looks like about $30 for dinner, plus they add the tip of 10%. I guess that's about standard to leave for a tip at a self serve buffet. We get seated and head up to the buffet. Looks like they have a big sushi section and a Mongolian grill section as well. Looking at all the food, I'd say the quality is better than most buffet I go to in CA. The dishes just look better. I'm gonna say in general, the food in the Seattle is a higher quality and more foodie oriented than down where I live. I even tried some of the sushi and it was seemed as good as any all you can eat place. Normally sushi at a buffet is something I avoid. I had ribs and some shellfish seafood and various other American Chinese foods. I did see a few more authentic dishes that I couldn't exactly tell what it was, so I guess it means it was authentic! The price was a little higher than what I'm used to, but the quality and size of the buffet made it worth it.

Food has improved and there are more varieties now, which was nice to see. Lunch is about $21 but…read morewith the automatic 10% service charge it comes out to over $23 + tax. Because they charge the 10% upfront, it really felt like the servers weren't motivated to check on tables. My hot water cup stayed empty most of the meal, and I couldn't find anyone to refill it. The dim sum area was also mostly empty. Chicken feet, shrimp dumplings, and other items were gone for long stretches, and some dishes looked like they hadn't been refreshed in a while. Several entrées were empty and not refilled promptly. They also charge extra for soda, coffee, and tea, which adds even more to the cost. If you live on the Eastside and want Chinese food with some sushi without driving far, this place is convenient. But if you have time, I'd skip this and go to Feast Buffet in Renton -- it's much bigger, has way more variety, includes drinks in the price.

We have tried other places but we keep coming back to shaburina because the service is always amazing and the food is great. They have added tablets at every table to order food, drinks, or refills. It's super easy to use and definitely a game changer. Only sad part is they now serve ice cream in a disposable cup rather than a cone. I hope they were just out of cones and this isn't a permanent change.

woomadang has quickly become my favorite k-bbq spot in all of washington! after coming back from…read morekorea and trying about 6 different kbbq spots in the area, i've been twice in a row here now and i have ALL good things to say about this place. their meat quality is great, marinade and flavors taste amazing for marinaded meats. they have a great selection of options and 3 tiers of choices that each unlock more items so as long as your group selects the same tier, you can get exactly what you want off the menu. we always go for the course B, which unlocks stuff like rib fingers, steak, LA kalbi, and many of the seafood options. note that per order you can order 4-5 items per round as you please (no wait time in between the rounds) in the 100 minute dine time, and unlimited sides or side refills!) aside from that, their sides selection is amazing. aside from the regular banchan (which includes tteokbokki, gamja salad, kimchi, odaeng, etc. all the good stuff) you can order cheese corn in a cup to go on the grill, steamed egg, and sundubu jiggae as well! so many great options for sides all included in the standard menu. based on your height, kids or shorter folds can eat discounted or free (~5ft 50% off, and so on, there's a height measure up front which i found delightful) there's also great music, karaoke nights, and great ambiance over all here. ventilation is also excellent and the whole place is quite energetic without being over the top. great for friends or families! price is very reasonable, especially given how expensive options in the area are for non-AYCE kbbq. this is a stand out spot! we normally don't have to wait to be seated, and also- if i could highlight one part of the experience as consistently excellent- the service. the service is amazing. super friendly staff that recognized me even on just my second visit. they're super helpful and attentive, and for my group, we even got a haemul pajeon and delicious sujeonggwa slushie on the house (didn't sway the review, but just really highlights the excellent service)! overall: 10/10 quality: 10/10 price: 10/10 i *will* be back! highly recommend you check them out too!

This is a low budget Texas DeBrazil and not in a good way…read more Despite people saying this is a buffet, this place is not an all you can eat. It is like a food court where you grab a plate and serve yourself and then pay by the amount of food you grab. The pricing is very confusing. They have two prices, one for meats and the buffet station and one for just the buffet station. The buffet station was very limited and look very sad. The meats were okay but overall overdone and chewy. They didn't have any traditional sauces you would usually find at a Brazilian restaurant; they only had some salad dressing bottles. There is virtually no service. They don't really speak English. They don't have a menu and everything is self serve. It is pretty cheap if you just go for meats and don't get a drink.

The food tastes just like good homemade cooking, and I love the fact that they offer both à la carte and buffet options. They also have great Brazilian drinks, snacks, and desserts. I come here at least once a week to enjoy the wonderful food. One of my favorites is the churrasco and the lasagna! Unfortunately, the lasagna is usually available only on weekends. During the week, you have the option to pay for food by weight or enjoy an all-you-can-eat option for a set price. Plus, they always serve free Brazilian coffee. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to experience authentic homemade-style Brazilian food.

They are so fresh and yummy! You get to choose 15 items every 15 mins. They are such a big portion that we only filled 5 rounds. I highly recommend to just order sashimi so it won't fill you up quick like with the rice. The sabu sabu is perfect for the ending of the meal! Overall I need to go back again and again!!!

First, I'd like to start by saying, there was nothing wrong with my time or food here at K-street…read moreK-BBQ. We ordered the brisket and kings ribs. I can say the meat looked like high quality and tasted great! The only reason I'm giving it a 4/5 is because I personally wasn't a huge fan of the banchan (side dishes) that were offered. There was salad, that had like the full bottom parts of lettuce in it, there was onions in some kind of sauce, kimchi, just not a lot of things I personally like to eat. I would say their banchan definitely leans more towards Asian clientel, so if you go with someone who is a picky eater or not super familiar with asian/korean food, then just be aware of that I'd say. Overall though, I would say come here for the high quality meat! The service was good, but personally, I just won't be returning. I feel like there are other K-BBQ places that meet my taste buds more than this place.

Their menu may not have an all-you-can-eat option, however the serving portions and variety are more than enough. This KBBQ is located in the Redmond Town Center. Their dining space is spacious and perfect for large parties. Their menu features 3 types of combos. We were advised the small size comfortably serves 2 while the large is serves 4. We opted for the small mix combo which had the prime ribeye, beef brisket, king prime short ribs, la seasoned ribs, beef tail flap, pork belly, pork jowl, pork shoulder, and seasoned boneless short ribs. We also ordered a bottle of soju to share. The meats were beautifully presented. They also served an array of banchans including onion salad and lettuce. Service was amazing. Our server always checked in and offered to change our grill pan. Pricing was on par for the meat quality and amount that came with our order. We even ended up with a couple to-go boxes. Overall, I recommend this spot and will be returning to try out the other

How I wish you have the ability to choose like you want fried or instead of steam maybe boiled with some clear soup. Overall idea is refreshing but I don't like that their tray for the dumplings seems to be being reuse because this isn't very good for people with allergies. We had a friend who is allergic to shrimp and we asked them to simply separate her order and perhaps use a new water or something for boiling it so contamination wouldn't happen. They did manage to do this but definitely we had some communication problems. Though I truly understand this isn't always going to be accommodated. Also very hard to tell which dumpling comes out because it's hard to distinguish once it's cooked.
