    Looked better than it was.
    SuzAnne S.

    I am so torn on writing this review, mainly because the negatives certainly should not happen. Arrived at 8pm. Mini-Me, her friend and I were seated to the dining area to the far right of the buffet. We gave our beverage order and the girls left to go get food. 1. There were kids behind the sushi area, using the microwave to melt marshmallows. 2. There was zero fresh sushi out, like, tuna or octopus, shrimp, squid etc. 3. The rolls that were out, looked a bit dry and not really tempting. 4. As I headed to the hot tray area, most were empty or being pulled to kitchen. 5. The salad area, had empty bowls and was being cleaned out. When I asked what time they closed, thinking, maybe I misread the hours, the waitress said 10pm. SO, why at 8:30pm, when people are still coming in, like families are you removing food or not at least puting out fresher looking?? Anyway, muscles were gummy, crawdad salty, the fried mini crabs, so salty inedible. I did ask the sushi cheft to make some tuna sushi which he did, but it was kinda brown on the edges. Soft serve ice creme was good. They offer a 10% ofg coupon when checking in but I used a diff one. I really can't say I would go back, just think it was a good try, but not worth it.

    Went to this buffet the other night, it's really a good deal and most of the food is really good. They have something for everyone. Mostly Chinese food but there's other options as well. I enjoyed it all, very delicious. Definitely gotta come back!

    Tastes like dog shit. Spend the extra few bucks and order takeout from another local Chinese food place. Don't waste your money.

    The atmosphere of this place is very nice, the place is busy so the food is always renewing. Good value compare to the price.

    This buffet is not to bad.. Don't expect a good dessert or crab legs but otherwise the food is good. I would recommend it.

    They have lots of issues to work out. Hot food is cold and ice cream is squishy. Large selection of tasteless food.

    Even the dessert section is pretty impressive, with actual cakes and fresh cookies, instead of the out-of-the-box garbage that's typical for buffets.

Our latest…read morevisit was on a Sunday at the end of April as ten of us women celebrate the "End of Winter" each year, and we like to be near the coast and boardwalk even though we're from all parts of New Jersey. Xina is very special and has become our go-to for this annual event. For those who prefer hot entrees, their menu is creative and abundant, and everything is fresh as can be. I saw the salmon marinated in miso and served with black coconut sticky rice entree that looked incredibly enticing, and I heard that it was beyond delicious. For those of us who can't wait to savor their sushi and sashimi offerings, we wait all year for the freshest and the best! A few of us don't order the standard tuna, yellowtail, and salmon... we go for what's less of an American's choice, and this time around we SAVORED (amongst other things) the sweet shrimp (amaebi) which are cold-water northern prawns with a delicate, sweet flavor and creamy texture. Most people don't even know. The extra delight is that the top half/delicate shell and head of each shrimp is lightly deep fried and presented alongside the shrimp - a delicious accompaniment with a bit of umami flavor. Xina is the ruler against which I measure the goodness of every other sushi bar I visit during the year. The Best.

Dishes were never cleared. No tipping expected after the 12% service charge fee was added. Interesting. Senior discount not applied. $28 lunch. I left wondering if the dinner menu is different. English not spoken here or everyone is goofing and pretending. The hot pot broth is a mystery. No utensils were provided to cook with the hot pot. It's like they want you to put the the food in and don't take it out to eat.If you are food sensitive you are out of luck. I liked the BBQ probably because of MSG that I don't use at home. Service was non existent I had to use the nearby table for our used plates. You don't get the occasional, how is everything question, I assume no tips equals no table service. I got a kick out of when I asked for something I got blank looks. If servers don't speak I'd appreciate English labels, or a sheet of paper for the challenged.

    Umi is a tough sell if you're going strictly for sushi. For a sushi buffet, the nigiri selection…read moreand overall quality are pretty underwhelming. The sashimi presentation is also a miss, served in small individual aluminum containers instead of laid out on a shared platter. It feels inefficient and less appetizing than grabbing fresh cuts with tongs. That said, the Chinese food side is actually solid. The BBQ squid stands out as one of the better items, while the ribs were disappointing, too fatty and drenched in sauce. I skipped the hot pot since the meats in the fridge didn't look particularly fresh or appealing. Compared to other locations, the East Brunswick spot seems to do a better job with both quality and keeping the sushi stocked. Drinks are another weak point. The bubble teas are overly sweet and not very good, though kids will probably enjoy them. I'd come back for some of the Chinese dishes and a few sushi pieces, but overall it feels overpriced for what you get.
