This place... Let me start off my saying we had a large group of 14 people. Too many options to list. Reasonably priced Vegas Style Buffet for sure without the inflated prices. Their sushi and sashimi as well as carving station are worth the visit alone. Then the unlimited drinks and dessert are even more added value. I really enjoyed the sashimi. It seemed like all other guests did too. The drinks and dessert options were great. My kids loved their offerings. The place is like a night club with a huge lobby/waiting area. There are VIP sections as well for a more intimate option for patrons. The service is excellent. Vivian was our server and cleared plates quickly as well as refilled drinks. I wouldn't hesitate when visiting town again. Hope to be back soon. read more

It's getting 4 stars because they are trying to be better than other Asian buffets around...so I'm going to give them kudos on offering things other places don't! With that said, most of what you see on my two plates was lukewarm at best, nothing was really what I would call hot, which I get since it has to sit around waiting to be consumed and if it was hot for an extended period of time it would be overcooked....but eating cold braised pork belly-when it should be hot-isn't my idea of a real good time. The peppercorn and chili chicken was super tasty but you are going to end up picking bones and dried peppercorns out of just about every bite. Fried rice was cold, had pineapples in it and was not seasoned in the least. Pass on it. I'm not really a sushi person, but that's what half of the offerings were. If raw fish and sushi rolls are your jam...hit this place up since it's AYCE. Our server was super nice and very attentive even for it being busy and lunch time. Place was clean and so was every piece of dishware I used. I liked that you could get specialty drinks like boba, Thai tea, and juices as you wanted them. I'd come back on a weekend to check out their offerings for their "all day dinner" menu...but it's not a repeat for lunch in terms of coming back. read more

Gohan Buffet - Plate-2 - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

See all

Today, a friend and I tried the famous Gohan Buffet after seeing it all over TikTok. The last buffet I'd visited was Wicked Spoon in Vegas, so I was curious. The place looks modern with digital screens and sleek décor, and the selection is huge--everything from fried rice and sesame chicken to prime rib, crab legs, sushi, and even pizza. But they had a lot of odd pairing gaps--prime rib with no mashed potatoes, fried chicken but no beans. They had a ton of variety, but honestly, they need to work on the pairings. It's still wild to me they had one random tray of pizza in the oddest spot. That's kind of my thing with these places--they highlight popular dishes in a flashy way, but they miss the classic combinations. The ambiance and music were great, but they need to nail those cultural pairings. I'd give it a 7/10. The prime rib was great, but the crab legs and lobster weren't fresh, so I'd be cautious. The basics--chicken, ribs, prime rib--were solid, but nothing really stood out to bring me back. For $93 before tip at lunch, I thought it was steep. I only had two rounds of food and repeated the same items, so I questioned if it was worth it. Would I go again? Probably not on my own. But if a group wanted to go, I'd tag along. In the end, it's what you'd expect from a buffet--just at a higher price. read more

A popular AYCE Chinese restaurant which we don't usually do, but we gave it a try after reading reviews on foodie sites. The place is huge with a big parking lot. We walked in around 1pm on a Saturday for lunch. The place was pretty packed. Lots of choices of food, mostly seafood. Some were very good, others were not... some of the shrimp were really good... others weren't and their shrimp was my favorite there... the good ones. The lobster and crabs weren't very good... read more

Alright, this is my second time coming here and this is what I notice. The ambiance is on point! The interior is very nice, very elegant and functional for the average person. Service was great! My waiter was very friendly, polite and attentive. The food is top notch! Fresh cut fruit (I'm actually watching the ladies cut fruit). Same thing with the sushi, I watch them make sushi and set it out. There was more! Overall, all I'm saying is this place is great! Tons of food option and much of the items were made fresh. read more

Gohan Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Massive buffet with AYCE food, dessert, seafood, AND bottled drinks? Yes please. Gohan is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. It is a heaping buffet with top tier foods ranging from fried fish, chicken, shrimp, lobster to grilled lamb chops, short ribs, pork belly, dim sum, soups, sushi, rice, noodles, raw shellfish & more. Unlimited crab legs to boot! When you arrive, the lobby is spacious and upscale looking. The hostess greeted us, showed us to our table, and took our drink orders. The Asian teas (Milk Tea, Thai Tea, etc.) are included in the buffet. The ambiance is big screens, bright lights, Asian decor, Asian music (K-Pop) and it's busy. Combined with the food spread, it feels like a Las Vegas Buffet and a K-pop video had a baby. It was overstimulating but worth it. For all the elaborate displays though, I do feel that the food was a bit underwhelming. The crab legs were small, the salad section was limited, and much of the meat was overcooked. If someone invites me here I will return, but over all, this restaurant is far from me and the food was not life-changing. read more

I had high expectations for this over hyped buffet. Enter the building and checking at the desk for a table was a big lobby. The interior high class looking buffet. Getting a table and sitting down I would have expected a drink offer when dining. I had to wave our lady down for a cup of ice and water. No one had drinks. Arrived for dinner hour 4:00 pm and the food I had was not fresh. The sushi options were a big selection but weary about the freshness. Seafood selection was basic probably the main thing to eat here if that's all you're into. For $45 before taxes and tip. I had high expectations for better service and more food option. read more

Gohan Buffet - Gohans - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Parking This restaurant is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Restaurant This is my first buffet since COVID and I really didn't want to go. But the restaurants score is 90+. Upon entering the decor is eye-catching. And the restaurant is hugh. We were greeted as we entered the door and escorted to the table. It is AYCE. There is a plethora of food. American, sushi, Japanese, Chinese, seafood, etc. everything I had was delicious. This is a do over but next time I want to arrive when they first open I am still a germ a phobic. Service Service was awesome. Sorry I don't get many photos. read more

Came here with my mother and we both agreed it was our favorite place we visited when she was in town! We ate until we were physically in pain . I'm happy to report the selection you get here is worth the price and yes, the crab legs play a huge factor into that. There were all types of Asian options to choose from--several regional Chinese food options, sushi, Korean style short ribs, Thai tea and other boba teas, sushi. Pretty much had all their bases covered. We'll definitely be back! read more

Gohan Buffet - Crab legs, whole crab, and lobster tail - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

This place is a must do when in Atlanta! I live here and felt like a kid in a candy store. This is a mega buffet with top tier foods ranging from fried fish, chicken, shrimp, lobster to grilled lamb chops, short ribs, pork belly, dim sum, soups, sushi, rice, noodles, raw shellfish & more. Don't forget the crab legs! When you arrive it feels like a hotel or casino lobby - the hostess counter greets you and asks how many. They escort you to a table. Then the server takes over to ask for your drink order. Only tea and soda is served - no beer or alcoholic beverages. The Asian teas (Milk Tea, Thai Tea, etc.) are included in the buffet. The ambiance is big screens, bright lights, Asian decor, Asian music (K-Pop) and it's busy. I went on a holiday Monday - President's Day for lunch but they got us - it was dinner prices! Oh well - still worth the trip. Pro Tips: Go easy on each plate to avoid waste. Try something different. Top it off with dessert. Check online for prices during holidays - lunch is usually the better option for your budget. Bottled drinks are included but a fee if you take it to go. I'll definitely return with my family or for a celebration. read more

Gohan Buffet - Part of the dining area. - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Ugh, I hate to have to write this. We've been here four times in the last several months; each time was on the weekend between noon and 4pm. We never had to wait more than a few minutes, and the food was fresh, the staff was friendly, and it was easy to maneuver around. This last visit, however, was the complete opposite. We were told the wait would be 30 minutes (it was closer to 45). A lot of the items hadn't been replenished, so the food was either dried out or cold, and the staff seemed so overwhelmed they hardly had time to speak to their customers. The worst part is by the time I got back to our table with butter for the crab, it had completely separated (oil on top, water on the bottom. See pic). When I asked the manager about it, he said they put too much water in it. So of course I had to confirm, "You put water in the butter?" He replied, "Yes, but they put too much." For nearly $45 a person, and the amount of business this place gets, it was beyond disappointing to learn that they're cutting corners like this. I'm not saying not to go because 3/4 of our visits were great. I'm saying avoid going during dinner time on the weekend. You will definitely be disappointed. read more

Duluth's newest & largest Asian buffet. Gaudy interior ~ new, spacious, almost Vegas-like. Seating is plenty; the trade off is it is a walk and a half to the food or restrooms. Menu selection ~ fresh good. Plenty of seafood. Self serve drinks are bottled; creates a lot of plastic waste. Desserts are better than most. Service was so polite, smiley, and swung by frequently. Excellent. Great for large groups but prepare for $$$. read more

Gohan Buffet - Not sure what to make of this but in the middle of the lobby. - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Overall Gohan Buffet was way better than the other buffet we tried (E Gyu) in multiple ways. Price was about the same for a weekend adult, around $44, but the food quality and overall experience felt like a much better deal here. Selection and Cuisine The selection is wide with a lot of variety, but the core identity is clearly Chinese or Hong Kong style. If you come expecting a Korean buffet, don't. This should be marketed more strongly as a Chinese buffet, because the Korean items were... rough. Best highlights Sashimi corner (the real MVP) This was the reason the visit felt worth it. For a buffet, the sashimi quality was pretty decent. They had: * White tuna * Salmon * Octopus * Mackerel * Oyster If you're a seafood person, this is the corner to optimize. Lobster and crab corner My second favorite area. They had lobster and snow crab (served by a staff member). It felt a bit more premium than the typical buffet experience. Other stations * Soup corner: several Chinese soups (felt like 4 to 5 options) * Dim sum corner: dumplings and buns * Fried foods corner: Panda Express style meats and veggies with sweet sauces * Coconut shrimp: tasty when you can grab pieces that aren't drenched in soggy sauce Drinks and dessert Dessert was fine, but not the highlight. The boba style drinks (without boba) tasted a bit powdery and too sweet, so I wouldn't recommend those. On the other hand, the jasmine tea was nice. Fruit I appreciated that they had strawberries, though you do have to hunt a bit to find the fresher ones in the pile. Korean food warning Avoid the Korean items. Even the kimchi tasted off. This is not the place to judge Korean food, and I really hope people don't walk in thinking it's a Korean buffet. Atmosphere and service The front lobby was nicely decorated with a Christmas tree, and the space felt clean and not overly chaotic. Service was excellent: multiple servers were actively clearing plates and keeping the table from turning into a disaster zone. Price and value At about $43 to $44 per person, it's solid value if you focus on what they do best: sashimi, seafood, soup, and lighter sides. If you optimize your plate strategy, it's a strong deal. Would I return? Maybe. If I'm back in Georgia and want seafood and sashimi in a buffet format, I'd consider it. I might also choose to explore something new just for variety, but I strongly recommend Gohan Buffet if you haven't tried it yet, especially if seafood is your priority. read more

I've seen and heard good things about Gohan, but considering the price, have held off until now because it's hard for me to make a buffet or AYCE "worth it" when there's always so much other options to try around. However, it's also an easy choice for those with big parties since there's usually a large variety, and yeah, they have a big selection. I'm sure it's no surprise that opting for lunch means you won't get snow crab or lobster unless you come on the weekend when it's dinner all day. At least they have unlimited drinks either way, and they offer more drinks than expected! The same fountain drink beverages as everywhere else, bubble tea (sweet), and then drinks you would normally find in an Asian grocery store. They will charge you $3, I believe, if you take a drink out, so drink it all there. Gohan seems more focused on Asian fares, but you can still find pizza, fries, and the like just as you would in any other buffet. The quality is about the same for those too, at least in terms of looks, since I didn't actually eat any of it. Much like everyone else, I went for the crab legs and lobster. Make sure you grab a pair of plastic gloves to handle the crab bc it can get messy. You do not use the tongs yourself to get your portion, they have staff to oversee that. They do give a good amount, so don't fret about them skimping out. Even if they did, you could always get more later. Now, I liked the lobster, it had good flavor that I would find in Chinese establishments, but the crab... some were saltier than others, so I guess it depends on the batch. You could make the joke that it was "fresh from the ocean" with how salty some crab legs were. They also had sushi, which I found to be not bad, but not great. Some pieces have definitely sat longer than others, and they do not put out more for nigiri until it seems all of it is eaten, but they kept the rolls coming regardless. I wish I had the capacity to try everything, but there really is a lot here. I liked that the waitstaff took finished plates away promptly, so I didn't have to be surrounded by my mess and reminded of how much I had already ate. I had a good time, and it really is a good pick for large parties because they have private rooms. read more

Gohan Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Better than I expected. I typically will not choose buffet options but definitely wanted to check out all the hype. I do like that they have gloves out for people that are more conscious about spreading germs. The bar is very clean and while we were there, I saw people walking around, wiping the bars down to maintain cleanliness. There were so many food options. I definitely like being able to come and find multiple things to choose from that I would like as well as our seven-year-old son. The staff is very attentive and kept our glasses full. We really didn't have to ask for anything as they kept our table clean while removing the finish plates and our cups refilled. read more

First time here and overall an above average Asian buffet that is spacey, modern, and quite clean with good service. I would say the food is maybe 1-1.5 points out of 10 above average compared to most other Asian buffets, but that does come with a slightly higher price point. They offer AYCE lobster, freshly heated pho, Peking duck, bubble tea drinks, and the classic buffet foods, with mostly the first parts of this list making it stand out. There is usually a line for the lobster and meat slices, but it goes by decently fast. The heated pho station is also quite nice as they freshly heat up the noodles and you are free to choose your toppings. The meat quality isn't fantastic but it gets the job done. The taste of the food is also overall slightly better, but again still follows the classic buffet style with okay meat quality. Our waitress was quite kind and checked in often. For a nicer buffet at a reasonable price point, I would say this definitely is a good place. Not outstanding but definitely above average! read more

Gohan Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I'd been wanting to check out Gohan since it opened, and my partner and I finally made it there on a Saturday. I'd heard it has a large buffet, but I didn't realize just how huge it is. Upon entering, the staff greet you from behind a counter, much like a hotel lobby, and then guide you around the corner to one of the seemingly endless tables. From there, a massive array of food awaits. It's nearly on the scale of some of the Las Vegas buffets. The variety at Gohan is impressive. There's a wide selection of Asian drinks, sushi, seafood, appetizers, fruits, proteins, and vegetables. They also have an immense salad and dessert bar. For $43, it feels like a great value given the sheer amount and variety of food. The highlights for me were the crab, lobster legs, and oysters. Each one was fresh and flavorful. Although there were a couple of items we didn't enjoy, overall, my partner and I left pretty satisfied. read more

If I could give this AYCE buffet more than 5 stars I would! It was honestly the best all you can eat buffet I have ever been to and I'm not kidding you when I tell you, we are going again within a week! Dinner is $44 per person. While they do have a full bar set up, they are currently waiting to get their liquor license renewed, so they do not have alcohol right now, but they should soon. The interior is huge and beautiful with all of the decorations they chose, it feels more like a fancy restaurant then and all you can eat buffet spot. The amount of seafood itself that they offer is more than enough for the price, I am not kidding you when I say I had three full plates just of seafood. They offer other meats and even interesting meats like chicken feet & tripes for example that not everybody eats but can try if you're curious. They have desserts, make your own Pho soup station, there is so much to choose from. I cannot even begin to tell you. The service is amazing and the waiters are coming around constantly making sure you are OK and clearing out your dirty plates. They even offer her a huge nonalcoholic beverage selection that ranges from Boba tea to regular teas and smoothies. They have private VIP rooms for larger parties if you want to rent them out that are spacious. We went on a week night at 6:45 PM and it was packed so if you plan to go on the weekend, you will probably have to wait around an hour I'm guessing if the week nights are that busy then the weekends must be crazy! Their lunch menu is $25 per person, but I do not know when it ends. read more

We decided to make this Asian buffet palace our last big meal before driving back home... Truly, this was possibly the biggest buffet restaurant I've ever seen (probably on par with Las Vegas buffets). Among Asians, this place is quite famous-popular too. When we hit the place at 11 am, there was a long line outside the door! Honestly, I can't even recall seeing a line this long for a restaurant...ever?? Also, if you're a non-Asian, you may feel a bit outnumbered. The whole time we were there, I only saw maybe 4-5 non-Asians, and that included my husband! The place itself was not only spacious and lofty, it had this cool, serene decor...though with some neon ambiance reminiscent of the 80's. Once we made it in, it took awhile to check out the place. Again, it's HUGE. The selections were quite tantalizing...but to summarize, it was mostly Chinese food, some Japanese...and really, the only Korean item I saw was Kimchi. No matter, I felt there were possibly one too many options! As much as this place deserves 5 stars, there was this one big issue. The long hot foods line was possibly THE longest buffet line I've ever been in. With all the space available, I felt they could have doubled up on all the hot foods to shorten the line. It actually took about 10 minutes to get through this long line...as in WTF?!? I nearly docked a star for this, but I can't. The service was really good...as our waitress (bus girl?) was right on top of things, as our plates were quickly removed every time we got up for seconds, thirds, etc.etc. Maybe because it was Labor Day, but the lunch buffet pricing was $42.xx...much higher than its usual $25.99. However, our meal was every bit worth $42.xx (probably more!). We ate a ton of Lobster, Crabmeat, Crawfish, Oyster, Shrimp, and other varieties of fish! Unlike most Chinese buffet, this place had a great variety of seafood! Also, the sushi selection was very good. The Dim Sum and dessert selection was on the smaller side, but quite good as well...as in high quality. They even had mini Mille Crepe Cakes! Overall, we loved it! Can't wait to revisit...though we agreed to go on a non-holiday, and maybe during off hours to avoid the lines. read more

I had been hearing so much about this buffet so I was excited to try out this location. So many options! They had sushi, dumplings, seafood, and Chinese style food. They even had a pho station! I love buffet because I can try a little of everything, and most of the food I tried were really good. There was a line for the seafood section (most popular), and I did not like that it was in front of the other food stations. I felt in the way while in line. I wish it could have been place at a different section. Other than that, I enjoyed the food. Not to mention the boba teas and herbs drinks were included as well! I would totally come back! read more

Finally tried Gohan Asian Buffet for lunch today and was blown away by the huge variety and freshness of the food. The atmosphere is very modern Vegas like but priced much better than Vegas buffets. So much seafood varieties and preparations with a wide variety of Asian Bottled drinks, bubble teas, and Milk Teas also included as well as Dim Sum selections though not the best tasting. Service was very good and attentive; our server checked on us frequently. Overall I would say it's good and would come back again. Some dishes were quite good, others acceptable, and some disappointing but well worth it overall. read more

Wow what an experience. This is for sure worth the wait and cost . The decore is top notch. I feel like I'm on a Vegas cruise ship . Everything is bright clean and organized. The food is ultra fresh and so many options to choose from. I loved the chicken wings tasty , tender & perfection. The crab Rangoon is up there as well . Sadly the calamari was tough and stiff very difficult to chew . The steak was more London broil and the sausages was extremely greasy. The sushi was top tear the seafood was perfection . Make sure you're paying attention to when they call the numbers . They definitely have a system in place but lots of people waiting outside or by their car missed their numbers being called . If you have a huge party I'd designate one persons inside listening . Rather than everyone inside taking space or everyone outside and you loose out on your spot. The later you arrive the longer you wait.they don't do reservations on weekends only Monday through Thursday/ Friday I believe. Still overall great place to bring guests if you'd like variety and fresh seafood. The desserts sadly aren't that appetizing there like layered crepe desserts which have a very acquired texture and flavor and the mini bite desserts are okay but simple . Service is great they clean up your plates and give you refills regularly. Reminder if you come with a big party tip is in fact included. read more

Gohan Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Gohan Buffet in Duluth brings a slightly upscale, Vegas-style vibe to the all-you-can-eat experience. The space is clean, modern, and surprisingly stylish for a buffet -- definitely not your typical strip-mall setup. I loaded up on lobster, steamed fish, fried shrimp, steamed crab legs, and Cantonese-style roasted duck -- all of which were fresh and cooked just right. While the flavors were on the bland side, I actually prefer that over overly salty dishes. You can really taste the ingredients, especially in the Cantonese stir-fried items, which were a highlight. The Vietnamese pho and soups were comforting, though the dim sum left a lot to be desired -- a bit dry and lacking flavor. One suggestion: it would be amazing if they brought in more Hong Kong-style BBQ options, like the ones they offer at their NYC location. Service was quick and efficient, and the buffet stations were clean and well-stocked throughout the visit. It can get busy, but the staff manages the crowd well. And before you leave, don't forget to grab a fortune cookie at the counter -- because what's better than ending your meal with a vague prediction and a little sugar? Pro tip: If your fortune says "You will soon receive great wealth," it probably just means you're about to get your credit card bill. read more

I saw this place on TikTok and I was really hoping to try it. We did not get a chance to try it because the wait was two hours long. What made it so bad is they don't have a good system in place for how they call out numbers. They call the numbers over the speaker intercom. They give you a sticker with a number on it so you literally have to stand the whole duration of the time so you won't miss your number being called. They don't go in order of the numbers. They do it by table size. All less expensive restaurants at least have a system in place where they give you some type of electronic device or they put your number in and then I'll text your phone number when your table is ready or they will buzz your electronic device. That would be a better option for a place that charges so much to eat there. A better system is needed period!!!!! Needless to say after about an hour of 15 minutes of waiting, we decided to go somewhere else to eat. I was nice enough to give my ticket to someone else that came in right before I left that had the same party of people. Hopefully they didn't have to wait too much longer. read more

It's got a cruise ship vibe, bright lights with lines and lines of people waiting for a table, waiting for their turn in line at the food stations. The food is mass produced and flavorless. Think hospital cafeteria but asian dishes. Even the desserts and boba tea were bland! The presentation was nice, it gave me hope but i walked away disappointed and $50 down. It's $44 per adult for dinner plus the automatically add 18% tip Now if you just want to stuff your face and eat as much as possible then this is your place. But its not for me, nope. read more

I'm not a big buffet person, but when I was invited out to meet a couple of friends of ours that we don't see often (yelpies) we welcomed the change. Knowing that Gohan was new, we decided to see what the hype was about. When you walk inside you're met with a massive welcome interior. Tons of seating for waiting parties, that wouldn't make sense to me until later on when you see masses of people just waiting to be seated. Behind the welcome part is just a massive buffet with tables and booths. We got seated right next to the massive TV. We wandered a bit and they have mostly everything you would want at an Asian buffet. Soup noodles, seafood/sushi, unique desserts, stir fries, baos, roast pork, fried foods and lastly salads. It was just pretty overwhelming. If you don't finish any drinks it'll cost you more since they watch out what people drink as they serve bottled drinks as well. They're all pretty sugary so, there's that. Anyways, I knew my limit so I didn't go over it, but I got to try out most of everything and I thought it wasn't bad. If you have a party and everyone is indecisive, buffets are perfect places to bring a party when everyone's taste buds are different. But for me, I'm pretty specific when I'm craving for something. Person of loyalty of finding a good place that does one thing very well, and not something that is meh on every front. Overall, Gohan isn't bad. It's lavish. It's big. It's loud. Its alright for a buffet. It beats golden corral any day. read more

I was REALLY looking forward to this buffet. For $45, it was OVERALL average. Now, what they do really well is sushi, sashimi and seafood. You could very easily get your $ worth on the sushi and seafood and this is precisely what I did. Huge variety of raw sushi and it was constantly replenished. The other things they offered was very typical of any buffet. Huge shout out for their fried chicken drumsticks, these were outstanding and a big surprise (friend recommended and he was right). Service and ambiance was good, lots of room and well laid out. Restrooms needed attention, which normally I would let slide if not for a $45 buffet. Bottom line, check em out especially if your sushi and seafood fan...otherwise nothing special really. read more

Note: This review is only for the lunch buffet which does not have all the available dishes served during dinner and weekends. Ok, I was honestly impressed by Gohan Buffet! The service, the food and my experience were 5 Yelp stars IMHO! Two of us made the drive to Duluth, GA, to Gohan Buffet on the Friday after Thanksgiving 2025. I had just heard about this place on Thanksgiving Day while looking for places to eat. Before we left to go there, I called to see if the weekday lunch price (less than $26 for adults) applied, and I was told yes, and was also informed that the more expensive dishes, such as crab legs and lamb chops were not available during lunch times. We got there at about 11am. Gohan Buffet is in a shopping center with a huge parking lot, so there shouldn't be any issues with Gohan customers finding available parking. I walked through the entrance doors and into the lobby and bar area, which provide a hint of the huge and spacious buffet and dining areas. In the lobby area, which looks similar to the front desk of a big and classy hotel, there were three hosts who eagerly wanted to seat me. I was led to a table for four close to the buffet area, and waited for R, who was parking his car, to find me. He found me a few minutes later, after finally calling me when he was only about 15 feet away from me. SMH! Right after we sat down, a server asked if we wanted anything to drink, and brought glasses of water quickly after we asked for them. Btw, drinks are included in the price of the buffet, so you can have fountain drinks, tea (hot or cold), or coffee. Or, you can go to the refrigerated section and get bottled or canned drinks and juices, or Thai tea, boba teas, and anything else that's already made and ready to drink. Apparently there are private dining rooms for large groups of people. I'm not sure if there is an extra charge for these rooms. The buffet area is so spread out that we both walked around to see where all of the different types of dishes before we started serving ourselves, and I was amazed that they came up with many different ways to cook shrimp, beef, chicken and pork! Lots of raw seafood, too, including salmon, tuna and oysters. The sushi bar is very popular, with many different types of rolls. You can also find in different sections: salads, sliced fresh fruits, various hot soups, sim sum, a beef carving station, and you can create your own bowl of noodles, broth and toppings. Lots of foods cooked various ways - fried, sautéed, steamed, baked, grilled, wok'd, etc. Even the pickiest of eaters will be able to find something here that they like. If anyone isn't full after eating, that's on them! :-D Just to confirm that we liked everything during our first visit , we came back for another lunch buffet round on the day after Christmas. Everything we previously tried was consistently great during our second visit. Even the servers were great with taking away our used plates, providing more napkins and refilling our water glasses and soft drinks. One of the things not available during the lunch buffet hours are snow crab legs - I'm unsure what else is available only during dinner hours. read more

I met a few friends here for lunch. It was pretty busy even after 1pm on a week day. The parking lot is large but filled with cars. The restaurant is huge! It even has vip area with its own bathrooms if you have a large party. There is a counter right when you walk in but no one greeted me. I had to walk up to them and ask for a table. A server walked right up to us when we sat and asked if we wanted drinks. They do have a drink station with prepared drinks but we also asked for a pot of hot tea. You can also order sodas. The buffet is large and full of variety. There's different stations but I felt overcrowded anywhere I went. I tried some seafood, sushi, pho, dim sum and toasted beef. Many food had wrong labels. The hot food were lukewarm. The fruits were room temp and not ripe. I would stick to sushi, dim sum and their pho station. Overall, a good try. But I will not return due to the mediocre food quality and the amount of people swarming around the buffet. read more

Gohan Buffet - Entrance - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

*Ambiance? Absolutely stunning. * Food (per my very happy family)? Phenomenal. * Allergy safety? Needs attention. Walking into Gohan Buffet during the day felt like stepping into another city. The ambiance had that lively vibe you usually find in destination cities where everything is designed to impress. I was genuinely excited to try the buffet, the spread looked incredible. But as someone with a shellfish allergy, I quickly noticed guests were using the same utensils across different dishes, causing cross-contamination. Because of that, I had to sit this one out. Still, my family got to enjoy the full experience, and they were impressed. They couldn't stop talking about how fresh and delicious everything was. They'd come back for the coconut shrimp, catfish, crab legs & ribs. My one piece of feedback to the staff would be to keep a closer eye on the serving stations. Maybe swap utensils more often or post reminders to help prevent cross-contamination. It would make a big difference for guests with food sensitivities. read more

Gohan Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

It was very busy on Thanksgiving Day in the afternoon and we waited about an hour. The inside is very spacious and has a more upscale vibe. Our server was really attentive, friendly, and urged us to get drinks. There's a lot of selection here including sushi, dim sum, crab legs, pho, etc. Most of the food you can just walk up but there was a long line for the crab legs, lobster, brisket, and duck. The employees serve these items and people kept cutting the line. Food tasted okay overall. read more

This buffet has everything. Crab legs, ginger scallion lobster, crab, snails, oysters, sushi, pho, the usual buffet foods. It's great and tastes good! And don't sleep on the drinks. The passion fruit juice was my favorite. It's $44 for adults during dinner which isn't bad considering they have a lot to offer and it actually tastes good. Since it's new it's still clean and looks nice. It does get very busy tho. The line for the buffet sections get so long, especially the section where the crab is. read more
