    I was first interested in this restaurant cause I saw on social media it was only $25 and had a huge variety of food like snow crab legs and prime rib. They have 2 locations one in Tracy and one I Gilroy. I went to the Tracy location and was disappointed going in. I was most excited for the snow crab legs but they didn't have any even considering it was a first night. Majority of the seafood was seasoned salt and pepper style which got too salty after the 2nd round. Majority of the food looked like it was sitting there for hours. I wouldn't be surprised if it was considering there was only 3 groups of people in the restaurant for a Friday night crowd.

    I have frequented this place about five times now for family gatherings. Unfortunately on my most recent visit this week, both my friend and I got food poisoning. Service: This a buffet that is completely self service. I like that you can get your own sodas, so you don't have to wait around for refills. However, the staff need to be more attentive with cleaning empty plates. Ambiance: our most recent visit the AC was not on and the restaurant was hot. Overall: this is your standard Asian style buffet. The dishes are mainly cheap or frozen foods. Sushi is hit or miss depending on when you go and who prepared it that day. Most days the rice is dry. Price point: I've had better budget or AYCE options for a more reasonable price. Although it doesn't seem expensive, it's just not worth the price tag for the cheap food they sell in my opinion.

    I was in town visiting family, some of who had been here a couple weeks before and decided we should all go. We went around 7:30pm on a Saturday Night with 12 people. It was $25.99/person. They also have children prices based on age. I thought there may be a wait but the place is pretty big and there was no wait at all. It was busy but not overcrowded. Living in Las Vegas and visiting many different buffets, I was impressed by this one. There is lots, and I mean lots of seafood. They have sushi, crab legs, shrimp, crawfish, clams, fish, oysters, etc. They have seafood chilled and also fried. If seafood isn't your thing they have lots of other choices such as fried chicken or wings, chow mein, bbq spare ribs, dumplings, spring rolls, fried rice, fries, veggies, etc. Also several chicken, beef and pork stir fry dishes (think orange chicken, broccoli beef). The Hibachi Grill is great. You pick out your protein, veggies, noodles, rice etc and they cook it for you. They have desserts and self serve drinks included. We all enjoyed our dinner. The place is clean and they have enough employees to keep the food trays full and things organized. They bus tables quickly and everyone is nice. The last time my family came, they saw the robot in action. The robot wasn't moving around today but we were seated right next to where it is and it would "talk" every now and then. It's located at West Valley Mall and you can enter from the outside (you don't have to go into the mall). Lots of parking. I'll definitely be back!

    Little corn nubs.  A little hard to eat, but the corn was sweet and delicious.

    I'm spending the night in Tracy, so I decided to come back and try their dinner menu. I was not disappointed. As the last time, , the place was clean, and the people were very friendly. The dinner menu had most of the amazing things from the lunch menu, but they also had some very good other items. Some of the items on the menu were, peel and eat, shrimp, salt, and pepper, shrimp, "13 spiced crawfish", (no thank you, I'm not *THAT*brave...) frog legs, (people say they taste like chicken... They have the texture of chicken, but to me, the taste was more of a cross between chicken and fish). They also had fried crab, real crab in the shell. How can you not like the taste of real crab? As before, the sushi was very good, and on the dinner menu they have my favorite Chinese buffet item, coconut shrimp. The coconut shrimp here is amazing. The shrimp are lightly breaded, and the coconut sauce is sweet, but not overly so. Another shrimp, item they had, was shrimp, stuffed chicken. A piece of chicken, with a shrimp in the middle of it. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the shrimp and the chicken played very well together. They also had four different kinds of soups, I tried the egg drop soup and the miso soup. The egg drop soup was rich and flavorful, as was the miso soup. I've had very salty miso soup before, but it depends on the type of miso they use. This was not very salty at all. There was only one thing I didn't really care for, and that was the peanut butter, lo mein. To me, it was OK, but it just tasted like plain lo mein. I couldn't taste the peanut butter. That was the only thing I didn't care for, not worth taking off a star. I tried several desserts, they had like a strawberry pudding that was good, I had the bananas in. I believe it was strawberry sauce, also very good. They had a full chocolate cake, and it was rich, moist, and very chocolatey. Finally, I had the banana pudding again, and that was just as good as the last time. The price for dinner is very reasonable. They do charge an automatic gratuity now, anywhere from 8 to 15%, depending on the number of people in your group. Even with the automatic gratuity, with food, drink, tax, and gratuity, I was only out the door $27 and change. That was with the 10% senior discount, but even at full price it would've been worth it Once again, I really enjoyed my meal here. 谢谢

It is located in a small plaza so there's ample parking. Although it is not a big place, it is clean and organized with plenty of tables and the food is BIG in authentic Filipino flavor. This spot offers buffet style serving a variety of Filipino food. You can order à la carte as well as their 1 item or 2 item plate specials. This visit I ordered a 2 item special with the 2 pcs veggie lumpia, monggo bean stew and half rice/half pancit. So delicious just like how my mom and dad used to cook Filipino food. For dessert, gotta get halo halo Lol Sooo good! They also sell some Filipino ice cream. There is a small butcher shop inside offering a few select fresh cut meat, along with fresh longoniza (Filipino sweet sausage). And a few doors down, they also have a small supermarket. Check 'em out, one of the best Filipino spots in the 209! Service is always very good and the staff are very friendly and nice.

I typically order 2 full slices and cut it up myself at home, or gorge on it in the car on the way back. I like the dinuguan and the pinakbet! Chat it up with the in-house butcher for some fresh fish and meats!

My husband hadn't been to this restaurant in several years. When we walked in, we thought it looked old. We were so hungry, that we didn't realize how unclean the place was. As we sat at our table, we noted the huge Covid stickers on the floor for 6' separation. The bowls were very clean, but the table felt like plastic that gets the permanent grime. This is why I'm writing... I had to use the restroom, and on my way down the hall in the back, I was disgusted by how filthy it was. The paint was chipped, there was crud in the wall, dusty dirty things falling of the shelf. So I went into the bathroom, and there was a toilet paper roll in the middle of the floor, the walls had black grime. The toilet cleaner was cracked and filthy. I have used many gas station bathrooms that were more clean than this. Unhealthy! After my eyes were opened by that disturbing bathroom experience, I took a closer look at the food area... food all round the floor with 4 people standing around. We will never eat here again. I don't know who owns it, but they should be ashamed.
