    Hibachi grill shrimp and broccoli with a sliver of salmon and deep fried shrimp

    Came in on a weekday for dinner. Average variety (about 5 bars with hibachi grill and sushi area. The place is fairly large and clean and well lit with many nice chandeliers and bright lighting. Service was good and we were offered drink refills many times. The hibachi grill had a variety -- green onions, mushrooms, broccoli, garlic, beef, chicken, shrimp, jalapeños and some other items. It took about 5-7 minutes before anyone came out to cook the food I had. Looked for a bell or anything to get service but this did not exist. There were some good items -- ribs, clams, shrimp, typical fried and battered food and a variety of salad and fruit with desserts. A few items were not as great. The salmon was gray colored so either it was not salmon, or they sourced from a place that has gray colored salmon. The calamari was almost deep fried to burnt. The fried fish was Swai but it was dyed to a yellow color. Maybe to be festive? Otherwise the quality was to be expected for a buffet and also a weekday night. The main excitement was variety and freedom to return for seconds. I'm not sure if I would go back since buffets are not my top choice. However, if you are looking for quantity at a price point $10-15 per person, this is your place.

    Decided to give this place a try and it didn't disappoint dinner is 11.49 per person kids 3-10 age are 5.35. Place was very clean and the food was really fresh my daughter tore up their shrimp and crawfish. Loved the fact there fried rice didn't have onions in it as most places do! They didn't have too many servers so had to ask for them to take our dirty plates and they waited until we were completely empty with our drinks to ask if we wanted a refill that's why they lost me for five stars

    The whole damn buffet.

    Listen... this is a Chinese buffet. I don't know why everyone else is complaining. If you've eaten at a Chinese buffet then this is what you expect and it deserves the 5 star rating. Everything is hot. Fresh from what I can tell and will make my blood sugar go through the roof! I'm starting a better eating plan on Monday and decided to knock it out of the park on Friday night. That stuff we always wonder if it's squirrel on a stick is top notch. You know what I'm talking about and you like it. I don't always give 5stars but this place is clean and customer service was friendly and on point. Shrimp and dumplings also on point. Come get diabetes. It'll be worth it. ;)

    Hands down my favorite Mediterranean restaurant I've been to in DFW. Everything is always…read moreconsistently fresh and flavorful. The sauces are amazing - tzatziki, hummus, baba ghanoush, and more. I personally love the chicken cooked in a yogurt sauce, roasted cauliflower, and chickpea moussaka as my top standouts, but truly there are too many delicious things to name. I love how many chicken options there are as someone who isn't crazy about beef or pork. There is also falafel and plenty of beans for your vegan/ vegetarian friends. There were markers for allergies / preferences on the labels, but I didn't attend too closely as I don't have dietary restrictions. They have tasty rice pudding topped with pistachios and fresh fruit as something sweet to pair with your meal. I enjoy the lentil soup for dipping pita bread in. All you can eat buffets are always the best for getting to try everything and making everyone in your party happy. It's a bit on the expensive side (around $25 per person before tip), but it's totally worth it for special occasions. Within the last year they've redone the seating inside, but the food quality has stood the test of time!

I've seen the price go from: $15, $18, $20, to $25... TAX AND CARD FEES HAVE AWLAYS BEEN INCLUDED. Well, today.... The young man told me it was $25 plus tax. So he said it was over $84 for three people. I complained a little to him about it and went on, THEN my wife heard the lady next to my male cashier charge someone the $25 flat with no tax!!!! I of course went and asked her WHY???? She said because the other guy paid with cash.... There is not tax!!!! I said you mean a credit card fee right?? She said NO.... If you pay cash there is no tax!!!!! I'd like the Great State of Texas to look into this one. I bet the comptroller would like to know about this!!! TBH, I really don't think the other guy probably even paid cash. It felt like a hate on whitey move to me. THIS PLACE IS SHADY.

    It is your typical Chinese buffet with a plethora of fried items, mid sushi, and rows and rows of…read morehot and cold food items. This buffet was so packed on a weeknight during dinner time. Almost no more tables were available by six/seven pm. The booths and tables are very close in proximity so be prepared to be squeezing in and out of your seat when you return to the buffet for more. The buffet area is not very clean and the staff do not come often to sanitize from what I see. Plates are stacked high for the volume of guests they have and food is constantly replaced though! They have a few rows of cold food items including salads, slaws, and chilled seafood including squid and shrimp. Hot food items include anything from chicken wings, sesame balls, eggrolls, cream cheese rangoons, to soups, stir fried veggies, noodles, fried rice, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken, kung pao chicken, and much more...you get the idea. However, a notable mention is their dim sum area. They have several types of buns, chicken feet, pork shumai, beef tripe, beef offal, beancurd rolls, and more. The quality of said items are very mid and cannot compare to an actual dim sum restaurant though I do appreciate the variety. The sushi bar has fried maki rolls, regular sushi rolls, as well as sashimi and sushi besides the seaweed salad, picked ginger, served with wasabi and soy sauce. These items are also plentiful but not exactly fresh and tasty if you know what I'm saying! Desserts include stale cakes, jello, pudding, watery soft serve ice cream from their machine, and chocolate fondue with fruit/marshmallow skewers. The price of the buffet varies like all other typical Chinese buffets, depending if its a weekday, weekend, lunch or dinner time, and whether or not its a holiday. They offer kids prices and senior discounts as well. The restroom was also ick. Overall, nothing really stood out to me at this buffet and I wouldn't come back again because there are so many better buffets at a similar price point. Unfortunately this has been one of the most disappointing Chinese buffets I've been to though both the variety and the service deserves a star...I wish I like it more.

Left well satisfied but not heavily full-perfect!! Note-gloves to protect handle with serving utensils. Sign on table offers a discount for reviews. Summary My friend heard great reviews from Friends so we came to try it. This is a chain across DFW area. This is the best selection of any restaurant I've been to lately!!! So many healthy choices and everything prepared to have a beautiful presentation and taste fantastic. We each had 2 big and 2 small plates! I've already shared with friends and family! Have you return for dinner and the lamb shank! See you there!

I love the layout of the inside. It's open concept so you can see the chef cooking the meat in the kitchen from the main dining room area. There's also a neat, well designed hand washing station in the hallway that leads to the restroom. Overall ambiance is good with sufficient seating, though on the smaller side. What's different about this restaurant is the variety of meat dishes they offer. I've eaten at plenty of Brazilian restaurants in the DFW metroplex, but never have I ever seen chicken hearts, brisket, beef ribs, ribeye, shrimp and so much more in the rotation. For the dinner to have been $55 with tax (& me ordering an espresso shot) for the high quality cuts I am super impressed and certainly recommend others to dine here vs the other more mainstream establishments that are always advertised. I also really enjoyed their salad/hot bar...though not the biggest, there was a nice selection of sides to choose from.

First time I had tried spicy picanya and I liked it more than the garlic picanya. All the meats were fantastic. Owner has put in a lot of money into the spot and it shows they do have a small bar area. The place is a small spot for Brazilian steak house but it works. Ended up paying about $115. Servers kept coming by and checking on the table and asking if we had special requests. If your in a date and dont wanna go yo one of the big Brazilian steak house chains Def hit this spot.
