    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...

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    All the buffets are the same right? No. Not all are create equally. What I hate about AYCE buffet w lobsters is they rarely refill to meet the demand then you have hordes of people waiting around. Well, not here. Each time I went up they always have it filled up. They also offer other great selections besides lobsters which I did try. All are great and fresh. The bonus is the inside decorations are cool and reminds me of a similar place up in NYC. This is definitely one of the top buffets that I have visited in the US.

    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.

    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.

    Decent options for lunch. Dessert choices are lacking. Enjoyed the sushi and Sichuan options the best. Good to try once but not sure if we liked it enough to want to come back again.

    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.

    Nice venue, but I wasn't overly impressed with the taste of the food I selected. They are countless options, maybe there is a something for you..The service was great .our server met all of our needs.

    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.

    Not sure what to make of this but in the middle of the lobby.

    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 $$$.

Broths (we had spicy miso and mala) were also very flavorful, more so than most shabu/hot pot places I've had in Georgia. The thing that drives it all home though is the service. You have excellent servers who are considerate and know when to step away and give you some time, or when to come in and ask if you needed anything else. Our server was friendly, empathetic, and an absolute star. Also, the runners and bussers come in quickly and silently when attending to your table, yet are friendly when responding, well versed on the menu offerings, and quick to take action with anything you needed. I have literally never seen such top tier service at any Asian establishment, let alone restaurants in general. We will be back for the service alone; they contributed greatly to the overall experience so props to management for their excellent employee hiring/training.
