The buffet is A plus! Great selection... Brunch has breakfast selection omelets, waffles, turkey, pasta station, Chinese station, American style station that includes Mac n cheese, mash potatoes. The brunch does include unlimited mimosa. We tried dinner this last Friday. I would say it was good. They have a meat station so there was no Turkey. But they do have a seafood selection, meats, pasta, Chinese. Ohhhh did I mention the desert station is amazing! Chocolate heaven!

If you don't mind standing in line for almost 2 hours before eating, then you will like this place. We took turns standing in line and found seating nearby. This is a buffet style restaurant at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino which attracts many, many people. It offers seafood, steak, Asian and Italian food. There are many different desserts to choose from also. It is crowded and loud but comfortable. We special ordered the lobster because the price was right. Apparently this is a very popular selection and sells out quickly! We were able to get ours just before they were sold out. Let me tell you, they were perfectly grilled, fresh, and delicious!! They were the highlight of dishes there. The rest of the dishes were just average tasting, I'm sorry to say. We obviously didn't taste everything there so I'm reviewing only what we did eat. We had mussels for an appetizer but to us they had no flavor and were dry/rubbery. We have tasted mussels at many places around the world and these needed some help. We had the Crab Rangoons and crab legs and those were good. The mashed potatoes were good. The dumplings and other Asian appetizers were ok. The desserts were ok but could've been sweeter. The wine was good. Our server, Amira, was friendly and checked on us frequently. It was very busy there but he was attentive and nice . All in all, we would return and try different dishes plus the delicious Lobster!

American station

I've been seeing this buffet all over social media so decided to give it a try. It's located inside the hard rock and although it may seem like parking would be a headache we went to the garage and found plenty of parking... for free! We came on a Friday around 1:00 for lunch and there was a 30 minute wait which went by fast. The inside Is very clean and very big. There's 7 food stations to try different cuisines from. I wasn't that impressed with how the food tasted and I think it could have been better but it wasn't horrible. What is cool is that they have dim sum and you can create your own sushi. The staff was friendly and approachable. Great music was playing in the background. Overall the experience was nice especially because of where it's located but it's not my first choice when wanting to go to a buffet.

I am super stoked they finally opened back up!! Very easy to find, plenty of seating, beautiful and spacious restaurant. I would definitely come back. I really enjoyed all the options. They had everything - Charcuterie options, Salad options, Meat options: medium rare/cooked steak/ + prime rib- super tender and delish, paired with mac and cheese, and mash potatoes! They also had an omelette station. Seafood options: crab legs yum!! You can ask them to heat it up as well. Waffle station with soooo many toppings. Bread station, Build your own lox station, Build your own Poke Bowl, Gelato, and AYCE desserts.. hallelujah!! Soups, Chinese food (soup dumplings yum) unlimited fountain drinks, coffee.. honestly can't go wrong with any of the choices. The price for this $50 on the weekends and dinner times, lunch times are $30+ but they only serve crab legs on the weekends. Service is top tier here!

Uncooked meatball

Fresh Harvest let's make it make sense Things were sure fresh and my salmon and meatball were not cooked immense I'm glad they finally open, don't get me wrong The selection is endless and the options are strong Another thing is the girl who was working the gelato station Seemed way to impatient I asked for some scoops and she put in a bowl, I asked for it to be put it in a cone But an eye roll is what I was thrown Some highlights are the crab legs already peeled claws And the steaks I would say ALL they even have lobster omelet and great dessert But not make your own pasta like the coco creek fresh harvest before

Lobster
Barry A.

What a find ! Went to the Seminole Hard Rock when my daughter visited from out of town. Fresh Harvest is fairly new and it's really good. The price was 39.99 per person and we were there on Lobster Thursday. 1 lobster is 10 , 2 lobsters are 18 and 3 lobsters for 25. The lobsters were good. They had many stations including steaks , Chinese food , sea food including shrimp , muscles and crab. The food was great, service was great, the place is new and clean. Soft drinks were included. The Hard Rock is a class organization and the Fresh Harvest buffet lives up to its name. The dessert area rocks.

My first time visiting Hard Rock Ft Lauderdale! Went with my dad and his wife for his bday. We had reservations at the Steak restaurant but after seeing the buffet we decided to eat there since none of us had been there. The buffet had selections for all, Italian, seafood, meats, salads, crab claws and shrimp! Tons of desserts...for $10 more I added a lobster tail it was amazing!! The waiter was also amazing and the vibe was good. The entire time we were the there the line was continually growing!

First time back since they reopened in October ( I think). Not sure if it's the same name as the last buffet here that closed in 2020. Anyway, decor is the same as I remember and the food stations are the same but the food is much better. AND they have unlimited mimosas. For 45 bucks you get a variety of seafood (including stone crab claws and legs), steaks, dim sum, a variety of Asian foods, omelette stations, breakfast fare, desserts and ice cream. Everything was fresh and tasty. Service was also good. Our server was very attentive and took our empty plates promptly. The one ding was a busboy was on the verge of taking our drinks and stuff cause we were both gone in search of food. That was quickly fixed by our server, thankfully. I really hope they keep up the good work and the food. I'm a fan.

Overview of buffet from seating area

Went 2 weeks ago and wasn't super impressed. Decided to give them a second chance and boy am I glad I did! We got there around 5:30 and there was already a decent line but we were seated within 15 minutes. Our waiter Jonah was quick to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed. The place was clean and well lit up - and busy! On to the food! Our previous experience left much to be desired but this time - not a single complaint. I started at the meat and American section. The galbi short ribs were tender and full of flavor. The New York steak was also perfectly cooked and paired with the smooth and creamy mashed potatoes. In the Asian section, the honey gochujang wings were out of this world. I can't usually tolerate much spice, but I kept going back for more. All the dumplings were really flavorful and fresh. Finished the night with a taste of all the small desserts with the vanilla panna cotta being my favorite. After this visit - we will definitely be back again!

We came here on Thursday lunch with no lines. We tried to avoid the long lines so, came here around 12:45ish. Line went longer after 1 and I would say closer to 2pm, lines get longer and they were waiting awhile. We asked right away for the lobster special which they have and I would say they are pretty sweet and juicy. Great for the price 3 for $25 Really great buffet with variety of food selection: Bread section, American section (steaks, pork tips, chicken...), Italian (pizza, pasta, stuffed shells, shrimp scampi..), Asian section (crab Rangoon, Bao buns, dim sum, fried rice...) Salad section, seafood bar (crab claw, mussels, shrimps) and the most important of them all... the Dessert section ;) they have cookies, churros, macaroons, brownies, cupcakes, ice creams with choice of toppings and tiny selections of sweets. Service was good great and fast. Worth the money! $35 for lunch on weekdays and $45 for dinner. It's a winner!!

I visited this spot a month ago for dinner at Harvest and the line was so long that I thought I'd come back for lunch. On Wednesday afternoon, there were only a few people ahead of me, so I got seated in about 15 minutes. I was a little worried because many reviews mentioned salty food, but that wasn't the case for me. My favorite was the DIY poke bowl, and the thoughtful details like fried shallots and sesame seeds were great. I was surprised to find kimchi fried rice, so I decided to try it, and surprisingly, it tasted authentic and delicious. I didn't get to try the Italian section because I ran out of time, but the pizza looked very tempting. My other favorite was the skirt steak; it was cooked perfectly, medium-juicy, and tender. The only thing is that there's a 50-minute eating window, so I'm not sure how it would be if the place gets packed. I would love to come back and try lobster on Thursday.

Wife eating

My wife and I decided to come to the hard rock Saturday evening to have dinner at this location then to play a little in the casino. To start we lasted 45 minutes standing in line to get charged to then be seated. After the long wait we got seated and got up to serve ourselves in the buffet. On the first time serving myself i served prime ribs, New York steak and they looked and smelled amazing, when tasting the food it was very SALTY. I thought it was only mine but asked my wife about hers and she replied with the same answer too salty. We got up and went to serve ourselves for the second time, the garlic knot was salty, the shrimps were salty, and I could not believe that all the good stuff was passed with salt. I don't know if that is a tactic that restaurants use for people but this was the worst dinner I have had in years. The couple next to us also shared their thoughts with us and the gentleman asked me, sorry to interrupt but is it me or all this food is salty? I answered "it's not you buddy, the food is high on salt" This is not good for the consumer and specially for people with high blood pressure. I will not recommend this restaurant and for the price you can go to a real buffet steak house and get your moneys worth.

Chinese station

It didn't look like much from the outside but once inside it is spacious and well decorated complete with a lobby bar and a water fountain at the entrance. Restroom was also clean and at the entrance. Service was also great. They seated us right away and offered us drinks before we even sat down. They didn't give us a run down of what's being served but it is a buffet so we went to the line and walked it to see for ourselves. What I saw there was pretty impressive even for lunch which was $21.99. They consistently picked up our dirty plates and gave us plenty of good clean napkins, thanked us repeatedly when bringing us our bill. Their shrimps were definitely jumbo. They also had boiled clams, mussels, crawfish and raw scallops for hibachi. I noticed lots of seafood choices along with seemingly endless choices of sushi. Even my husband was impressed with the sushi selections and he's not easily impressed with sushi normally, especially at a buffet. Among those food they also have fried chicken, chicken skewers, fried wontons, gayoza, siu mai, sesame balls, cold asparagus, seaweed salad, miso soup, hot & sour soup, etc...too many to name. Wheew!! Lots of vegan options as well. Did I mention dessert? They have fresh cut fruits consisting of cantaloupe, honeydew, canned peaches and fresh cut dragon fruits! Yumm!!! It was just the right amount of sweetness. Then there's cakes! They had cream puffs, Chinese donuts, crème brûlée, panna cotta (my favorite) and then there's ice cream! Yes! Self serve ice cream with a scooper. No cones but they provide a plastic cup. They had coconut flavor, matcha flavor, traditional vanilla & chocolate among others. I was in heaven. Too bad it's kinda early for me and I couldn't eat as much but I'll be back when visiting again. Thanks Mizumi buffet & sushi!

The location is very easy to find and has a nice amount of parking so I never need to hunt for one and jump at it.

The food is pretty good and there is a nice variety from sushi, seafood and hibachi!

The buffet is well laid out with separate sections for hot foods, seafood, sushi, desserts, and ice cream, so it's easy to navigate. The seafood selection included lobster, and the sushi bar offered a large variety with plenty of options to choose from. The staff was efficient, and the food was replenished quickly, so nothing sat empty for long. Everything was well organized and made for an enjoyable dining experience. If you're looking for a buffet with a wide selection and attentive service, Minato is definitely worth a visit.
