    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

So many great options on the menu for everyone, even those that don't eat fish. The food is always fresh and delicious. They have so many amazing tasting things I recommend you try at least one thing new every time! If you're dining in they have plenty of seating to choose from including bar, sushi bar and regular restaurant dining tables of all sizes ~ they seem to be able to accommodate larger parties as well. Parking is always easy and I'll definitely be back again!

    Hubby was craving ramen, so we stopped in, but this place definitely seems more sushi-focused than…read moreramen-focused. Ramen just doesn't feel like their "thing." Chicken Karaage (1/5) We were very disappointed. It wasn't true karaage, it felt more like frozen popcorn chicken with super thick batter. Not good at all. They also forgot the mayo that typically comes with it. I had to ask, and they brought out spicy mayo on the side. I only knew to ask because I've had karaage many times before, including during the time I lived in Japan. And I'm not comparing it to Japan standards, I've had great karaage here in the U.S. too. This just wasn't it. We ate a few pieces and then let our server know we couldn't continue. The server was very nice about it, and the manager removed it from our bill, which we appreciated. Ramen (2/5) When it first arrived, it had a slightly off smell and I was immediately hesitant. I didn't want to judge it too quickly, though. The broth ended up being very pepper-heavy, which was... interesting. Not necessarily in a good way. It just wasn't something I'd order again. Beer (5/5) Hubby loved his beer! Our only note is that we wish we'd been told it was the giant bottle size , that thing was huge and only hubby was drinking that night. Overall: The service was friendly. I'd skip the ramen here and come back to try their sushi instead. That seemed to be the real star of the restaurant.
