All of us enjoy the soup and the fact that 2 people REALLY like wonton soup which is not that common for some reason. I think the sushi is good for being on a buffet. I have had the hibachi in the past and it was good. My one ding on this trip was most items weren't that hot. We went for an early dinner and it seemed that the stuff was left over from lunch. EXCEPT they did eventually being more fried catfish and that was smokin'!

We first visited this on a Labor Day this time last year...and it was beyond bustling. Luckily, we…read morereturned to this massive buffet palace on a non-holiday Monday for lunch...and it was perfect! The selection was a bit smaller (no Snow Crab Legs, for one), but the selection was plentiful still...and the pricing was much less (given the non-holiday selection?). Just as before, we tried a bit of everything. Sushi rolls are something I vowed not to eat at a buffet, but the selection here was so tantalizing, I had to try a few. As anticipated, even the sushi rolls tasted great! Thoroughly enjoyed their various Chinese options, especially the Dim Sums! Service was excellent as well. Truly, am surprised that some folks rated this place anything less than 4 stars. It's probably one of the better buffet joints I've been to in the U.S. There's not a single buffet joint in my city (Charlotte, NC) that can stand up to this...in that the selection is truly massive, and possibly the biggest seafood selection I've seen at a buffet? Overall, we love this buffet...and am sure to return!

Decent selection of food, but most of it at room temperature or close. I didn't dare eat the chicken when it was clear that it had been sitting there for a while at room temperature, will be shocked if I'm not sick tomorrow. Same with the cobbler. I tried the rolls and garlic bread - both so hard as to be completely unpalatable. Salad bar was probably the best part, but everything there was very low quality as well. Beyond that, the food is all very underseasoned and bland. And how do you make cheesecake bland? I mean, how is that possible? All the server had to do was give my a seat, some water and clean utensils, and I did get a seat - but the knife had a big blob of something green stuck to it. They brought me a new glass of water when the first when dry, but it had a funny/bitter flavor that wasn't there in the first one. Considering the fact that the knife wasn't clean, I would assume the same went for the glasses. Worst of all, I left a tip at the table (not required for a buffet, and certainly not earned as noted above); but when I declined to tip at checkout, they had the nerve to ask if I had tipped at the table - as if tipping was somehow required. And then argued with me when I made it clear that asking was inappropriate. Incredibly rude and a terrible way to treat customers. I should have made more of a scene, but I calmly made my point clear, no need for more drama. Will not be going back, and will suggest nobody else does either - if you want a reasonable buffet experience anyway. Edited to add: After writing this review, I decided to research to see if I was the only one that had a bad experience, and found a LOT. On Yelp, they have more one star reviews that two, three or four stars - making me think that many of the 5 star reviews are not legit. Just go to Yelp, and sort by newest first, to see that 3 of the last 5 reviews were one star - 4 of 6 if you include mine. Also, according to the AJC, this restaurant has had multiple failed health inspections in just the last five years: November 2025: Scored 59/U (Unsatisfactory). Violations included food not held at proper temperatures and cross-contamination issues. December 2021: Scored 52/U (Unsatisfactory). The restaurant failed its routine inspection after staff were observed failing to wash hands, alongside improper food storage and temperature violations. May 2021: Scored 37/U (Unsatisfactory) 37? 37?? That's not just a fail, that's a not even trying.

Their cold salads and the like are always ice cold; the food is kept hot. They have a small sushi bar in the back with fresh-made sushi waiting. I find that this restaurant serves a style of sushi that is not Japanese; they don't serve traditional sashimi or nigiri. They have a varied selection of items, including fresh, raw, thinly sliced prime rib for the chef to cook for you, just the way you like it. For me it is 2 seconds on each side. Plenty of uncooked choices for a stir fry of your own making. Desserts are typical of other buffets I have been to. It is heavy on fresh fruit, flan, banana pudding cookies and tiny prepackaged cakes. The service is always spot on and it accommodates large groups and families. When it first opened, I noticed a big upgrade from the normal buffets in town but over the years I feel like it has slipped in the food department. It is very convenient to stop in for a hot soup to go.

So the place is in Snellville just past the Cookout next to the Texas Roadhouse. And let me be clear, this is a Chinese buffet so expect it to be as kitschy and stereotypical of your previous Chinese buffet experiences. The interior is well lit, booths are a bit crammed and the food stations are not as extensive for options. The service is literally non-existent. They bus your tables and are up to speed with refills which is basic service anyways. Now for the food. It's a buffet so it's not much to write home about. Seeing that it is a Chinese buffet, I decided to stay on the familiars. Pepper steak, lo mein, some crawfish, a baked pasta, and decided to try the pho So the Chinese options weren't that bad. The baked pasta was decent. Lo mein was flavorful. The teriyaki chicken was a bit off and the pho... well... the pho was a let down. The options were minimal. Four stations, with a noodle soup options, hibachi, and sushi tucked in the back. Can't say this buffet experience was all that it was hyped up to be. It was small, very minimal in terms of food options, lacked any sense of flavor for a buffet but the place was clean, well lit, and fast. At $20.99 for dinner plus tax and tip you're not paying much for AYCE but suffice to say, quality is subpar, options are much to be desired, and yet it's probably the best thing for AYCE Snellville has to offer and that's not saying a whole lot for Snellville
