    Happy parents will always be a happy meal
    Betsy F.

    I took my parents here because they do usually enjoy the Asian buffets in North County. I saw that this was the sister buffet to Pan Asia Buffet in San Marcos, so we decided to come here! The ambiance inside is very modern, clean, and much more spacious. I think I actually liked this location better than the San Marcos one, which is strange because you wouldn't expect the interior to look the way it did from the outside. This buffet offers all assortments of food: the Mongolian grill, meats, seafood, Chinese food, American food, and the salad/fruits bar with the dessert bar. My parents seemed to enjoy the food, it's a pretty good price for a Sunday dinner with seafood. The sushi and fish were fresh, and the fried soft-shell crab was really yummy. Can't really complain as all Asian buffets have the same assortment of foods. I give it 4 stars for cleanliness, but the sushi bar was taking forever to get refilled again while we were waiting for certain fish to get. Service is good, they seem to grab empty plates pretty quickly. You have a self-serve for unlimited drinks and teas so you really don't have the need to get served much. We still tipped a bit for the bussers at least.

    Most of the staff are friendly. Food was great, good selection. Price on par with other establishments. Discounts for Seniors 10%. One minor problem, they dont like waste, so be sure to take only what you can eat. Decor is slightly bare and outdated. But overall a good experience.

    Everything was fresh and delicious.

    Soft drinks are included in the affordable price of this wonderful buffet. My favorite items were the baked crab and delicious long green beans. Will come to Escondido again just to eat here.

    I eat at Chinese buffets all over San Diego. This is by far the worst I have ever eaten in my life, anywhere. This is what happens when you have owners or managers that do not care! The food was so bad, I had to spit it some of it out. The Teriyaki chicken had little flavor 3/10. The orange chicken had little flavor 2/10, I had to spit it out. The Thai chicken was dry and had a weird aftertaste, 2/10. I had them cook some teriyaki chicken with sprouts, egg, mushrooms etc. on their grill and it was very watery 3/10 with little teriyaki taste. I even had the cook put extra teriyaki sauce on it. I think they're just trying to go super cheap on the ingredients. How do you make food with almost no flavor? The pizza was a 1/10, I don't think I would even consider it pizza. The fried rice was a 4/10. There was something black on my coconut macaroon, 2/10, you can see it in the picture. I did try two other coconut macaroons, 5/10. I had a small muffin and it was so weird tasting, I had to split it out, 1/10. I have never spit out a muffin in my life. The Garlic bread was a 5/10, possibly the best thing I have to eat there. The chicken wings were a 5/10. The cheesecake was a 1/10, I had to spit it out. They had pork chops, but they literally look like beef jerky, I didn't even try them. The salad bar looked okay, but I'm not a salad eater. The corn on the cob & pineapple was a 5/10. The white cake was a 6/10 and the dark cake a 4/10. When I walked in the place had a strong odor, like it had never been cleaned properly. The place wasn't noticeably dirty, but it was noticeably worn, like it had been here for 30 years and they had done little to no maintenance. They had the front door propped open and it was 80° and I was hot. Who likes to eat hot food when they're sweating? The server was fanning herself. Back by the grill, there's a really harsh odor, almost like a sewer odor. I used the bathroom and found it in disarray. No paper towels to wipe your hands on. By the pictures in the review, you can clearly see there is no maintenance or even caring going on here. I was here for an hour before she came and picked up my plates. You can see her sitting down watching videos on her phone. You have to get your own food, get your own silverware and get your own soft drinks & refills. After the first few bites, I contemplating asking for a refund, but I didn't want to argue with anyone. I thought "maybe I'll try some more items and there will be at least two or three items that taste good." I was wrong! I wasted $20 bucks! That's why I almost never try a new restaurant or buffet. Learn from my experience. It's really sad because I love Chinese buffets. There's one in National City, next to Peter Piper Pizza called "China Super Buffet" that is an 8/10.

    Sunday Buffet has sushi, egg rolls, lobster rolls, orange chicken, beef & broccoli, thick noodles, and baked oysters.

    This buffet experience cost $$ (the most on Sundays). The variety of foods was great. There was even pizza and fries for the picky child eater. The restaurant itself has soft wood tones. It would have been better if the dirty forks weren't in buckets right next to where customers can fill up their soda. There were two kind ladies going around each table picking up finished plates. Overall, I had a great time with my large party. Everyone could fill their plates how they like. Go for more when they like.

    Our family have been dining here for many years. The staff have become a second family to us. They are very welcoming and the food is always served fresh and very appetizing. The prices are very reasonable for a buffet style restaurant. It is self serve and includes beverage. We recently held a Celebration of Life for a loving member of our family. He dined there on a regular basis and his request was to have his Celebration of Life at Fasia Buffet. It was held in the restaurant's private banquet room which I believe has a capacity of 90' people. We were able to set up nice tables with memories of our passing family member. A nice feature was the large flatscreenTV which we were able to stream a video/slideshow of memories. I highly recommend this restaurant whether you are dining for lunch or dinner or a large private party in their banquet room.

    Nasty how does code allow employees to put their dirty drinks in the ice bin! Nasty! Call code enforcement

    It's a $15 lunch buffet. Filling, but very basic. Sushi rolls, Chinese food, pizza and fruit and desserts.

    Aloha gang! Thought it was time to revisit Pan Asia Buffet. I was coming back from a Sunday…read moreafternoon at the casino in Temecula and was in the mood for an all you can eat buffet. When I arrived, the restaurant was packed. I had to check in and take a number, but they managed to seat us in under 10 minutes. If you're not into crowds, I would definitely avoid Sunday's. My usual visits are during the weekdays when they open first thing for lunch. You get first pick of the buffet offerings and it's much more enjoyable without the crowd. My faves are the Chow Mein, Teriyaki Beef, Fried Rice and Honey Walnut Shrimp. So....if you have a craving for AYCE buffet, check it out!

"I hate to do it, just as bad as you hate to see it done, now calm your boys" As a a non-seafoodie, I entered with trepidation...as soon as I stepped in, the stench of seafood hit me in the face, oh no...I had a strong inkling of what was to come. Disclaimer: Had I not been part of a large gathering that was coming here, I doubt I ever would have come to this buffet. Pros: They had the World Cup playing on a "2017 New" 36ish inch TV with the tags still on it The food was mostly hot The cream cheese wontons were delicious, creamy, and crispy Cons: I tried like 11 items, and only the cream cheese wontons were hittin'. Out of the 11 items I tried, only 3-4 items were passable as decent The food was salty The black pepper chicken tasted like fish The food ended up giving my bubble guts the bubble guts-SHEESH! While there were loads of offerings, which I appreciate, the organization of said offerings were a bit strange. The hibachi was set-up going left to right, while the food stations on either side of it were going right to left, creating this crazy clash of people heading in opposite directions. It just wasn't for me.

Elijah and Eric hooked us up and let us taste their mojos, which is their version of fried potato chips. And it's very good! Crispy and just a little bit thicker than chips. The pizza had a great doughy crust. The wings were crispy. And the salad bar had great options and was fresh. I was surprisingly delighted by this place. We will definitely be back. It's a laid back, diner type vibe.

    This may have been my first visit to a Shakey's where I wasn't wearing a baseball uniform…read more I think the last time I went to Shakey's (not this location) was after a Little League game--one that I played in. That was [insert ridiculously large number here] years ago. There used to be Shakey's locations everywhere. If you played sports as a kid way back when, your team went to Shakey's to celebrate a win. Or you drowned your sorrows in pitchers of Coke or Root Beer after a loss. The location in Escondido is massive. The main dining room is humongous and they even have a nice video game room. The pizza is about on par with Pizza Hut quality and that's fine with most people, especially if you have young kids. And, of course, what visit to Shakey's is complete without some Mojo Potatoes? Basically, they are well-seasoned thick potato slices. I like them and there's also some added nostalgic value there. On the negative side, our food took forever to make which was a bit of a drag. Also, there were multiple uncleaned tables on a Saturday night that remained uncleaned during our entire visit. My guess is the restaurant was short-staffed (both front and back of house) which doesn't make a lot of sense on a busy Saturday night. They've got beer and a salad bar (now that's a real unicorn these days) and you can even get anchovies on your pizza (save your hate, they're good). They also have TVs everywhere so if there is sports being played somewhere, this is the place to watch it. I probably wouldn't return for the pizza and certainly not for the dirty tables. The Mojos are solid and if you have young children, are looking to catch a game, or if you want some decent nostalgia, it's worth a visit. Bonus points if you come dressed in your old Little League uniform.

I'll return and try something different next time.
