We enjoyed the ambience, but wish there was more room to walk in the seating area. We also wish they had sweet and sour chicken. The fried chicken pieces that you dip into the red sauce would be delicious. read more

Yummy food options for the price. Took my dad for his birthday with my siblings. First time there and it was delish. Can't beat the food and price. A little crammed in there, but we there to eat and that's what we did. Service was great! Quick and attentive and the ambiance was family oriented, loud and bus. I'll be back, but not sure when. It's a little out of the way for me. Sorry didn't take much photos, was busy grubbing. read more

Fusion Buffet - Giant water prawns, fried wings, shu mai, fried rice - Buffets Near Me - Concord, California

Oh man! Where do I start? I haven't been the biggest fan of buffets since HomeTown Buffet. However, I was VERY impressed by the quality of food here at Fusion Buffet. Nothing went to waste. I went straight to the crab and crawfish boil. It was delicious. Although it was very packed, all tables were cleaned right away and people were seated just as quickly. I didn't see any empty trays other than the oysters, which people made a line for. Price wasn't too bad either. It's a great addition to Sunvalley Mall. Hope the quality of food and service stays this way. read more

Soft opening! Beautiful interior! Modern environment- better than the average ayce Chinese buffet! The staff was very friendly at the door! And the server was very polite and very on point at cleaning the dishes as youre done. Pay before you eat. Leave the receipt on the table..and go grab your food which included access to everything including drinks. It reminded me of Sweet Tomatoes, in that sense. Good variety of Chinese food, hibachi, and sushi options. Food included the usual staples (chow mein, fried rice, broccoli beef, kung pao chicken, etc) to seafoods (mussels, salmon, crab legs, salt and pepper prawns, cooked oysters, etc). Sushi had sashimi and rolls. Dessert included tiny little pastries, fruit, jello, warm sago, ice cream, and chocolate fruit dipping fountain (this was cold chocolate and kid friendly). Soft opening price going on now at $25. Kids are charged based on height. Fair pricing right now for the better ambiance and service! read more

I wish they had more American dishes and cuisines. Over all I'd go back!! read more

Fusion Buffet - No caption needed!!! What you see and what you get!! - Buffets Near Me - Concord, California

Fusion Buffet has finally arrived, and opened up at the front of Sun Valley Mall, where Fresh Choice followed by Lucille's used to be located. Sitting across from BJ's, and on the side of the mall near the Safeway side of things, you will find this new buffet. They just opened yesterday I believe for the start of their soft opening, so take this review with a grain of salt as they may still be figuring certain things out. The place has been slightly remodeled inside, and feels a bit more open and spacious compared to Lucille's, but still roughly similar decor, with of course the exception of the buffet food area. Fusion Buffet is a pay first at counter before you sit down, so just be aware of that before you sit down. The food offered here is a combination of various Asian foods. The service here was decent as far as the cleaning away of plates and such, so that is one thing that was good. The who I assumed was the manager in the front was just so-so, and didn't really seem all that friendly when we came in, and the person at the register was much friendlier. But it's fine, still just opening I guess so maybe they were training the other person that was next to them and didn't really think about service up front at that moment. It's fine, for now. Everything here is fully self-service, including the drinks that seems to be included in the price of the meal, so that is one upside. Following are for lunch service. It's split up into several main sections: the fried stuff, the standard cooked dishes area, the fruits/salad cold area, the mongolian bbq (they call it hibachi, but more mongolian bbq than hibachi) fresh cook area, and the sushi area. The fried stuff area, which also includes some of the stuff that are bbq and such related are on the very left side of the food area. It's a pretty standard selection out of everything there. The standard cooked dishes area offers a good variety of dishes here, with mushroom chicken, to general pasos, to kung pao, to broccoli beef and so on. There's also soups and stuff right at the start. While nothing standards out in particular, I do feel most of the dishes here are pretty bland and just in general not flavored well. I honestly taste nothing, and that's pretty difficult to do for a place that serves Chinese food. Felt like nobody is actually taste testing and just putting food out for the sake of getting it out. The mongolian bbq area is one of the more interesting areas as just like the mongolian bbq place inside, you can pick your ingredients, and they will cook them for you. The only downside is that it suffers from the same issues as the standard cooked side, which is, no flavoring really goes into the making of the ingredients, and they just add a ton of water before the food is even drying on the grill, which makes it really bland in the end when you try to add some flavoring to it because it's already absorb too much moisture so never even had a chance to be flavorful. Again, probably hasn't done this enough yet, so they just need to get used to manning the live grill area, which is a great idea, but I feel needs more training. The sushi area was the only area that was alright, as the California roll wasn't bad, and they had another roll that was decent as well. Just that, the selection is laughable, even for lunch, for a place that has a specific area just for sushi. The selection is very few, and honestly, if they actually had better options I may have ate more of that since again, the only thing halfway decent today was the California rolls. All in all, having waited for months for Fusion Buffet to open since they had already had their signs up for some time now, I was hoping for something better. In the end, while this is one of the two remaining Asian open buffet style restaurants still around in the area (this and China Wall), I honestly would still rather go to the other spot seeing how it's about half the price, and while the selection may not be as much as Fusion Buffet, the food is still more flavorful which can't be said about Fusion Buffet. Perhaps in some weeks when they get their act together I will try them again, but as of right this moment, it was just not an engaging or worthwhile experience. read more

Finally got to try this place out and I'd have to recommend it! Came here during lunch on a weekday and it was fairly busy but we got seated right away. They have tons of options including sushi, Mongolian bbq, desserts... the list goes on. Honestly for it being a buffet, I would say they have some pretty good food and the variety is great. The inside is clean and has a more modern look, which I really liked. The servers cleared our plates quickly and were very friendly. read more

Came at the right time and was seated without much of a wait but there was a wait as I was exiting. The buffet has a variety of Asian food. The service is self serve for the most part after you are seated. The ambiance is casual with music playing in the background. Recommend if you are looking for a buffet setting. read more

Fusion Buffet - Buffet Food - Buffets Near Me - Concord, California

3 stars means OK, which is exactly what I think of FB. While the choices are many, the quality is mediocre. Not a single thing stood out to me as delicious. I found the people at the entry-pay-station impossible to understand. They talked so fast I couldn't understand anything they were saying, and they also talked as if everything they were saying the customer already knew. That may be true for repeat customers but as a first-time customer, I had no idea what they were talking about. The place is attractive and there is plenty of parking, which are pluses. I wouldn't refuse going back if someone suggested it, but certainly FB is not first on my list when I think of restaurants I'm dying to go to. read more

I think the service could be improved. It was disappointing that the restaurant was practically empty, yet my friend and I were turned away because I was the only one planning to order food. While I understand the staff may have assumed I intended to share my meal, I'm a 40-year-old woman, and if I had planned to pay for two meals, I would have done so. It felt unfair to be denied service based on that assumption, especially when there were plenty of available tables. A more flexible and customer-focused approach would have made for a much better experience. read more

I wanted to start by saying we were really looking forward to this outing. It was a birthday celebration for three friends of over 30 years, all turning 50, so we wanted the night to feel special. Unfortunately, the experience became disappointing because of the customer service. Our party waited over 15 minutes after staff claimed they called us, but they had mispronounced my friend's name. We were sitting right outside and got up as quickly as possible once we realized they meant us. When we went inside, we were told we would have to start the process over because they had already called the name. After my friend explained the situation, they finally agreed to seat us. About 10 minutes after being seated, we were then asked to move because another party had requested a booth. That was embarrassing and honestly felt very tacky, especially during a birthday celebration. The food was okay, but there were also cleanliness and safety concerns. The ice machine constantly threw ice onto the floor, and the greasy floors caused me to almost fall more than once. We also noticed dishes stacked together that were still dirty or only partially cleaned. What really made the experience disappointing was seeing staff enforce the time limit on our table while other groups who arrived around the same time were allowed to stay without issue. We left feeling sad more than anything. Unfortunately, we will not be returning and will likely choose San Francisco for future celebrations instead.I give them a two because it looks nice inside. read more

I came to Fusion Buffet last Friday with a group of family/friends. The price is what will probably keep me coming back. That and the service was pretty friendly and prompt. The one weird thing is they had to measure my 11 year old's height which is off putting. If i say he is 11 just put that he is 11. Height doesn't = age or appetite. Anyway, so the selection was pretty decent. We started on the right side and there was sushi, a good variety of rolls... then there was a Mongolian bbq station with noodles (I didn't try this one but my son said it was good). Then you get to the other Chinese food and then some seafood and salad/fruit. In the middle is a dessert station and the desserts were actually pretty tasty. The weird thing is that the chocolate fountain is way by the drinks and the fruit/marshmallows are in the dessert section so its weird to pick them up with tongs then walk over to the fountain if you don't know where everything is. It would make sense to put the items and sticks closer to the fountain. Fountain drinks are included as is coffee (not strong at all), hot tea packets and hot cocoa packets. I like and can appreciate that they give you crab crackers. Now for the food. The beef ribs were probably my favorite and gyoza. The cold crab was dirty still (black on top) and were just okay if you only eat the bottom leg and not the meaty part on top. The cold shrimp looked kinda sad just floating in what I assumed was water. They should have it out of the water and place the shrimp in a way to look more appetizing. It almost looks like you have to fish for them. Also the salt and pepper crab was so overdone I couldn't eat it. I had my fill for $30 thought and will try this place again. Now that I know the set up it will be easier to get what I want and sit down. read more

This is a buffet style restaurant in the Sun Valley Mall, Concord . No reservation. The food was very good, fit does not matter all good. My problem was I informed the staff upon arrival that a group of family members were to arrive.i was informed that we should eat in the cool area outside the restaurant. I thought we could all sit together. As time went by one of the waiters asked a table of people with us to move as other patrons also family wanted seats. Our family moved and the incoming patrons took those seats. After a while we were asked to move once again but this time to tables with umbrellas outside. Now keep in mind it's HOT in Concord. Has anyone else had this experience? My opinion 4 stars for the menu and zero stars for the ambiance experience. read more

I REALLY wanted to like this buffet but unfortunately I'm here to say save your $50 for somewhere else for 2 adults. We came for lunch and although it was very busy the food lacked flavor and variety. There wasn't much of a sushi selection & the Chinese was not good. The area where they cook in front of you like a Mongolian bowl was inedible. Full of garlic and not a good flavor. I came in hopes there would be crab legs but there was none. Only overcooked crawfish & overcooked shrimp. Super bummed! I look forward to trying the new buffet in Dublin CA. 2 stars solely based on the fact that the restaurant is clean , has air conditioning and servers were nice and quick with clearing plates. read more

Our server sarahi took the experience from a 6 to 10. She was great very nice and was great

The dining experience that we had at 4pm on a hot Friday evening was much better than I had expected. One, the air conditioning worked. The restaurant in general was very clean with the exception of one area, the soda fountain. It wasn't that the area was messy but the rug beneath it stuck like when you wash clothes in a washer and then forget about them for a few days, sour. A good hosing off and rack drying should solve the problem. The food was reasonably organized. I tried a bit a many things but probably still only about 1/3 of what was on offer. There was the cold section, salads, peel and eat shrimp, and crab across from the jello and desserts. The hot section, primarily of Chinese dishes including large garlic prawns, sauteed vegetables, fried rice, chow mein and pork buns. The premium hot section was made up of dishes for dinner guests and not the lunch guests who didn't pay for dinner items. Those included pork ribs, beef ribs, honey as well as fried shrimp, and oysters. There was a section with ingredients that you could choose for Mongolian BBQ. I didn't really pay attention to that as it isn't something I'm interested in. The sushi section was interesting. I took an assortment of five pieces. All were okay. I hope that this restaurant will be able to maintain the quality. At many other buffets, they often start off with decent sushi but then the quality goes downhill after a few months. Staff was friendly. Empty plates were taken away almost immediately. Someone else said that the spacing between tables was tight. I agree but completely understand why. I can see coming back a couple more times for dinner just to try the other dishes and see how this business progresses. I got distracted by the selection and got busy eating and completely forgot to take any pictures. read more

This new buffet has been all over TikTok and IG, so you know we had to try it! This is one of the better buffets in space, ambience, cleanliness, variety and of course, taste of food( most important!). Tip #1- it fills up fast, by the time we were done, the place was completely full! So go on the early side. Tip #2- skip sushi side( just ok) first since first in the line and go straight to the Mongolian bbq wok section if you want fresh cooked noodles/meat. That section has a long wait since they are cooking it one by one for you. So go to that place first, it quickly gets backed up! Tip#3 - skip the middle first which is mainly fillers. Head to the end on the other side where it is opposite of the sodas. They have awesome ribs and crab, shrimp, etc. I filled up on the middle first and then didn't have room for the ribs, and seafood bc I was so stuffed! They had a wonderful and tender, moist sweet and sour fish filets. I don't even like fish and I had a bite of my husband's and had to get that after! Sushi was just ok, so don't fill up too much on that. Ribs were Asian style like Korean or Chinese tasting. And big ribs! The seafood was great. In the soup area they had Taro Sago which I never had before- it is a dessert( not soup like the rest) and think Filipino. That was sooo good and comforting! I rather have that than the desserts even! So overall very good for a buffet and better than the rest of the Asian buffets I have tried in this area. It is Asian geared, although they did have pizza. We have to keep this restaurant around! One last tip# 4- if you have a birthday you can get the bday person FREE IF you have a total of 7 adults(6 adults with one free bday person so 7 total). And no, kids no matter how many counts towards this! Just a heads up- bc you know from my Yelps I get all my birthday freebies lol! ;) read more

5/5 stars for having the most beautiful buffet ever. This all-u-can-eat restaurant has the most decorated interior decor designer spaces, while u can enjoy eating more than 150 items of their delicious clean foods. There's a beautiful outdoor sitting dining room experience on the side of the restaurant. Plus, located in a Sun Valley Shopping Center mall near JC Penny department store has u ready for dress up well and eat well here without having to worry about cleaning up after u cook here. Plus, they have a super sized Teddy bear attraction statue at the front of their entrance that is very big to look at. Eating here is definitely prettier than most homes. The food is really delicious here. The hot chocolate fountain near the beverages and fountain sodas was very entertaining to watch while u eat. Both lunch and dinner were very good and very enjoyable. The price starting at $20.99+tips for lunch and $31.99+tips for dinner here are both priced perfectly at its best value for every body to afford. This place is as advertised. read more

Overall, this buffet is decent with a big variety, fresh sushi made on the spot, chow mein, chicken and lots of seafood (shrimp, mussels, oysters, crab, shrimp boil), plus a fresh fruit and salad bar. Dessert is solid too with ice cream (mango, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry) and a chocolate fountain. A couple of downsides: there's often a strong foul smell near the chocolate fountain, and the tipping system is unfair. You pay upfront, and if you tip by card, the servers don't see it. These servers are greatvery attentive and constantly cleaning. So I recommend bringing cash to tip them directly. Drinks are self-serve, pricing is based on kids' height, and for 2 seniors, 3 adults, and 2 kids my total was $180 total with tip $201 read more

Went here today for lunch. There was no wait and we were seated right away. You first need to pay before you get seated. The price of the drinks is already included with the price of either lunch/dinner. I didn't really like we were seated. We are close to the food items but the constant people passing by made our eating experience unenjoyable. As for the food. It's your typical food serviced and tastes were just okay. Nothing stood out as very good. All just bland tasting. Some of the food was just dry. The only plus was our used plates were taken away quickly and that's about it and the ambiance is very inviting and very nicely decorated. I really was really excited when this buffet spot opened up and unfortunately we left really disappointed. read more

The first time I came here was during their soft opening and I initially wasn't impressed with their food. However, we decided to come back after reading a few more positive reviews. And for $21 (lunch price) we didn't have much to lose. This second time around I had a way better experience. We came on a Tuesday around 12:30pm and it wasn't super packed like the last time. Everything was way better this time. The food, the service, plates being cleared in a timely fashion.... They definitely listened to the feedback and made some positive changes. The sushi tasted fresh, the Mongolian BBQ was good, the hot food offerings were consistently filled. For seafood options they have salt and pepper shrimp, salt and pepper calamari, and crawdads. The chocolate fountain is a unique dessert option. They also had several flavors of ice cream to choose from. Drinks are included in the price. Not a bad place to go for lunch if you're famished and wanting variety. Or if you need to feed a large crowd, they have plenty of space! read more

I just love this buffet. The service was quick and efficient and the staff were very kind. I came here with my mom on a Tuesday at 3:12 pm. Definitely get the dinner deal! It is worth it! ($29.99) The snow crab with melted butter was crazy good. I rarely see crab at buffets in the Bay Area now but Fusion Buffet has crab! Everything was good , my favorites were the unagi nigiri , fried cheese wonton, fried coconut shrimp , baked mussels , pepperoni pizza , Mongolian beef and the fresh watermelon. There are a few things I hope they would change. 1. The spring mix and lettuce were covered in ice cubes. It looked too difficult to pick out so I didn't even try. I love salad but was unable to eat it here. Also the ketchup, salad dressing should be in squeeze bottles instead of open containers. ( I noticed the sauces dripped into one another ) 2. The sashimi still had bones in them. I do not eat sashimi but my mom does. It would look more appetizing if the sashimi was sliced into filets instead of chunks of various sizes. 3. The kimchi did not taste like kimchi. I took one bite and had to spit it out. It was slimy and gross. They had a section for sashimi and sushi, BYO Mongolian noodle, hot stir-fried foods , fried foods, baked foods , hot soups, cold appetizers and salad bar , fresh fruit and desserts ( even chocolate fondue ) I will definitely be back. read more

Visited Fusion Buffet on a Saturday dinner. My group of 8 people waited around 1 hour. Arrived at 5:35 pm and seated around 6:30 pm. The foods were good for the most part. I really like to enjoy seafoods when it comes to buffet. Their salt and pepper blue crab was great. Towards the end of the day ( around 8pm) their cajun seafood was no different than boiled seafood. The taste was weir. I believe they don't really cook or season the seafood toward the end of the day. The chocolate tower was busy with kids. I felt like people just let their kids go freely to get foods and drinks even they're not tall enough or careful enough to get foods by themselves. The plates are small so you will have to walk back and forth many time just to get enough food. read more

the food selection was not what what we expected - it was amazing! You should be aware that they do enforce the 90 minute seating. you will be asked to leave! The staff was very respectful about it. The only problem we had was it was very busy, alot of choices, made it difficult to navigate around, let alone eat your fill within 90 minutes. The price for the amount of seafood on the buffet was very reasonable! It was shrimp galore! the honey walnut could use a little more sauce but it was still delicious read more

Update... this review should attach itself to prior reviews. I think I've been 8 or 9 times. Tonight was the busiest. The food is still good. Tonight was the first time I used the Teppan feature... gave them some veggies and shrimp to cook for me... they were accommodating, started onions first to caramelize them. Actually better than expected. It'll be part of my routine in the future. Surprising when so busy, expect more food turnover, some of the stuff was really tough, like it had sat too long... particularly the big long fish filets. But, OK, that happens in AYCE. Still good appetizer, and Chinese entrées. The sushi is mediocre, but the diced salmon and tuna make up for it... I make poké each vist. In my first review I noted that AYCE places tend to start big, then trim the offerings as the reality of costs set in. I think Fusion is doing that with dessert. The scoop your own ice cream has been replaced with little cups of tasteless artifical stuff. The donuts or mini bundts are gone. I had some chocolate cake ball that was dry and tough. I don't known if it's temporarily broken or discontinued: the chocolate fountain sits there empty. I don't really go there for dessert.... so it won't deter me. I just hope these aren't early signs of further cutbacks. The restaurant industry is really struggling right now. An Asian AYCE place one mile down the road closed less than a year after opening. I know its a difficult decision, and my opinion doesn't necessarily represent others'... I'd rather see them increase prices than cut variety or quality. read more

Think of Panda Express and your favorite Chinese Restaurant had a baby that served beer and Wine. Hint: Wine and Beer are near the entrance. You have to go to them, they will not come to you. The service was excellent because it's self serve. The ambiance is exactly what I would expect: Ravenous Humans that are Hangery. But 20 min into our eating shift the whole place calmed down and people were calmer and nicer on round two! Bathrooms: Clean! Bonus: I'm a big Ahi Poke Fan. I did not expect them to have a fresh Ahi Poke Bar. Scooped that up quick! We took our multigenerational woke family there and every one left full and happy. Then we walked the mall. Over all: 5/5! read more

My little family stopped by for lunch while since we would be passing through. The gentleman at the front desk was nice and professional. The ambience was nice. Drinks are self serve. Food was fully stocked and fresh. Food was really good! Loved the s&p shrimp--cooked and seasoned to perfection! Sushi was ok. My fav was the taro sago which is found the soup area. Price was worth it. If your child is under a certain age(I believe) and under 3ft, they're free! Would definitely go back to try for dinner the next time I'm in the area. read more

I visited Fusion Buffet for an event and was told that it's better than East Bay Buffet in Dublin. I visited at lunch so the selection may be different for dinner. I thought the food was good but the buffet lines were long. Pro tip: don't wait in line, just go to the station you want. The Mongolian stir fry section backs up so the line is longer than needs to be. Unfortunately, it's right next to the sushi line as well. It is a casual place, but worth it if you can eat a lot. read more

First time trying this place and it's such a good vibe in here! We came for lunch. There's a good amount of food selection, as well as lots of dessert options including a whole chocolate fountain. Free coffee, drinks and tea. It can't get any better for the price you are paying. $10.99 for kids and I think this is the first time seeing my son eat this much. Will definitely be back! read more

This place is awful. I honestly don't understand the height. I think it's fine given the price, but some of the food is so disgusting. You can't even stomach it. They have a lot of hot Chinese food, fruit, a noodle bar, and some sushi. Even have a chocolate fountain. But overall, that doesn't mean the quality is any good. I wouldn't recommend you waste your time or money on this place. read more

Fusion Buffet - Pricing - Buffets Near Me - Concord, California

This place is super busy all times long waiting on the weekends and Weekdays almost 40-60 mins wait till you get your table I guess it's only one buffet in that area,no parking and no time to wait for hungry kids read more

Fusion Buffet - Sun Valley Mall, Concord Honestly, the food is just okay. The big draw is the crab legs and basic seafood, but don't expect anything fancy--no red snapper or cod, just mussels, shrimp, and crab. The rest of the selection is pretty limited (one type of rice, light dim sum, nothing memorable). The layout feels messy, like it was thrown together without a plan. Sushi sits right next to the Mongolian BBQ, which is confusing--you might grab raw salmon thinking it's sushi. They really need clearer boundaries between sections. If you're craving crab legs, it'll do. Otherwise, pretty average. read more

Fusion Buffet - Fish drenched in sweet and sour sauce - Buffets Near Me - Concord, California

Similar experience as last time. It always seems extremely busy and crowded and it is dangerous that there's a lack of clear walkways in case of emergencies or fires. Also they still haven't added any dietary guidelines for reference at the buffet. Service overall is similar and really appreciate the people doing the grunt work of clearing tables in a timely and friendly manner. But I don't want to see the restaurant so crowded that it's difficult to evacuate. Tables are too close to each other and you can't pass for example from the buffet to the outside dining area. There's so many people that there's traffic jam at the buffet. Remove some tables and chairs and leave some room for walkways and this would also keep the buffet area less busy. Business owners should maximize seats per square footage but done with comfort and safety in mind is imperative. I'm willing to wait a little longer if that means it's more comfortable and safer. read more

June 27, 2025 3:30 pm. 3.8 stars. No. 4 stars! After reading a handful of bad reviews I was hesitant to eat here but my wife kept on Asking At Me - if you know what I mean and we went. First look inside the door and I was very impressed. The place is not crowded and it is air-con cool. Also, very cheerfull cashier hostess girls are there greeting you with smiles. What a nice way to start a dining experience. You pay before you are seated. The point of sale system greets you with that "Tip me up front 20% Dude" screen. We skip past that as we prefer tipping based on quality of food and service. The hostess tried to sit us next to a family with noisy kids but we 86'd that idea and had her sit us in a secluded booth. I already raised my noisy children and am not interested in hearing theirs. I browsed the buffet tables and the food trays like a wide eyed tourist. Everything looked clean and immaculate. A very nice presentation. I noticed some genius left the ice cream freezer open and I closed it before things melted. Why aren't these freezers made with self closing doors? The floors and tables are kept clean by friendly hard working staff. One worker stopped by to ask how everything is. That makes us feel appreciated. The main bus girl assigned to us was fabulous. Our party of three agreed the food was overall pretty good. Some items bordered on delicious while others missed the mark a bit. The quality isn't the Riitz Carlton but more like a top of the line Holiday Inn and far from a Motel 6. There were plenty of interesting food choices including Sea snail today. On the way out we were thanked by several of the staff for our business. That always makes me happy and barely nudged Fusion Buffet up into four star territory. A few negatives: Food that missed the mark. For my wife, the oysters were to meaty to eat in one bite. For me I had some sushi with grainy rice. I also tried the In shell crab that for some reason had mushy meat. There is an unlabeled stir fry station that should be labeled as such and with directions on how to use it.. I tried to ask the man with a spatula who I thought was the operator how it works but he doesn't speak English. The various types of sushi should be labeled so a customer knows what is in the bite they might choose to eat. Most other food options are labeled nicely. With a piece of crayfish shell stuck between my teeth, I went back to those cheerfull cashier hostesses for a toothpick. I found the toothpick dispenser. The girls were chewing food at their work station. That's never a good look. Back to my booth to taste more options. Across the floor there is only one cashier now and she is playing on her phone. I know everyone does this and you are doing it right now but Old School me thinks that is not a professional look while on duty. At $30 a pop plus tip, it's a pretty good bargain. We will most likely come back. read more

Fusion Buffet - Sun Valley Mall If you're hungry and want a ton of variety for a fair price, Fusion Buffet hits the spot. For $20.99 at lunch, you get an all-you-can-eat spread that includes everything from a chocolate fountain bar (yes, really!) to fresh sushi, beef and broccoli, a noodle bar, and even a little pizza corner tucked in the back. Desert bar and fresh fruits too. The fried chicken was surprisingly delicious--crispy, hot, and definitely a highlight. Some dishes were fresher than others, but overall, for a buffet, the quality was pretty solid. The space is huge and perfect for big groups, with plenty of seating and lots of parking since it's located right at Sun Valley Mall. I'd give it 3.5 stars. It's not fancy, but it's fun. Come hungry, bring your buffet-loving friends, and don't skip the chocolate fountain! read more

See all

We had a large party come in right at opening, and they accommodated us well!! I tend to lower my standards for most buffets. However, In my opinion, the food here is better than most Chinese buffets that I have been to. They have seafood, hot foods, fried foods, sushi, dessert, hibachi, etc. Although I feel they may not have as much variety as other places, I feel like the flavor makes up for it. The food area was also kept clean. Also, servers were observant and picked up finished dishes often Overall, my party and I had a good time and we'd come again! My only request for them in the future is to add reservations on weekends if possible. My family already started talking about how they wish they could reserve for another celebration after we left! read more

For the price, it was great ($30 all you can eat). There was a good selection and the food was good. My favorite was the large sautéed prawns. It was busy over the weekend, but they were putting out food fast. I would definitely go there again for there all you can eat dinner menu. read more
