    Crab Salad, Dinner Roll, and M6. Crab Rangoon
    Kristopher T.

    We were greeted promptly as we walked into the restaurant. The staff were all very nice and checked in at the table. The ambiance of the restaurant was quiet yet welcoming, with soft East Asian instrumental music playing softly in the background. The food was slightly on the cooler side but still within an acceptable temperature range. Normally, I find something on the line of a buffet that I don't enjoy, but that was not the case here; I enjoyed everything I ate. The Rangoon is to die for, with a special shout-out to their Crab salad. The open sushi bar is the icing on top of the cake. Overall, a great experience. As someone who has never been here before, I was pleasantly surprised and delighted with every bite.

    a variety of salads and sides

    This is my kitchen, I eat there lunch and dinner and don't have to cook at home. Their price is great, $8.99 for lunch and $11.99 for dinner.

    First plate

    Initially had my mind set on fish. But upon hearing the location we went had a 3 hour wait, we decided to try this place out. We did the buffet! The first plate was iffy, I had literally a combination of all different things I like. I also tried the sushi rolls they had, the yum yum rolls and the spicy . They were good, the honey chicken was good and hot, the general tso chicken was kind of cold, the lomein was good as well. I also had some bourbon chicken and it too was kind of cold. I was kind of disappointed...Until!!! I went to the hibachi grill! And created my own combo plate with rice, steak, chicken, shrimp, broccoli, onions and peppers! It was pretty darn amazing! It pretty much saved this review lol oh annnnnd the sweet tea was REALLY GOOD! Not overly sweet, but just right! The location is clean, had a small issue with my initial silverware, but that was corrected ASAP. The staff was nice and courteous. I am slightly disappointed in myself because I ate wayyyy to much lol I'll definitely have to burn this off, but sooooo worth it. Overall it is definitely a place that we will return to, I may just bypass the other things all together and go straight for the sushi and hibachi!

    Holy Cow! Someone kidnapped the old Chinese Buffet, dumped it's body in the Ohio River, and put this one where the old one was. Someone should pin a medal on their chest. First, the place was a lot cleaner and nicer than the predecessor. Not only did they clean the place up and give it a fresh new look they did an excellent job of picking a decor that would be easier to clean up and keep clean (tile floors, wooden furniture, new bathroom fixtures). The second thing is the food is greatly improved! The Asian fusion buffet was still there, but much better and with a more varied selection. They've added a sushi chef, a hibachi chef, and have legit ice cream EIGHT BIG TUBS OF ICE CREAM THAT YOU SCOOP YOURSELF. It was exciting. The thing they kept? The wonderful service. The people who worked at the previous buffet were kind and efficient. This didn't change.

    Do they have varrious seafoods?

    If you're looking for fresh deep fried blue crab like Yoki than no. They only have standard sushi offerings, raw mussels, (they don't look fresh) cooked mussels, and typical Chinese buffet food. If you haven't, check out Yoki. They even have ahi…

It's summer and sizzly hot and electrical issues happen. We deal. This would easily have been overlooked if the service or the food had compensated. But our server could not have cared less about us and was aloof and cold, expressionless. Took forever to come to our table and barely checked on us the entire meal. Then, after waiting an eternity, we were both brought the wrong food. Yes, we each were served the wrong dish. We both had ordered scallops and we both got sashimi. We were so hungry that we simply went ahead and ate it so that we could get out of that place. Indifferent waiters do not HEAR well, apparently. I likely won't be back. There are simply too many other good sushi places in Louisville. This was more than simply "one bad night" for the restaurant, in my opinion. It was a composite of "yuck."

    So, this was our 5th time eating here, but it will be our last…read more On the other occasions the food and service was good. Today my wife and I experienced something we've never experienced in about 40 years of eating lunch out, often 5 times a week since it's kind of a day date for us. I'll get to the main issue first and go from there. I'm diabetic and I cannot use just any sweetener for my unsweet iced tea. I bring a 2 oz bottle of natural sweetener called Monk fruit. And I discreetly put a few drops in my tea. No big deal. Some servers at various restaurants have said, "How cool." Not today. Today near the end of the meal the server said "That violates our outside food and beverage policy. If you would get hurt we could be liable. But I'm not going to ask you to leave." We were dumbfounded. It took me a minute to get it. 'Our sweetener?' "Yes." I explained it's just sweetener. (We actually save the restaurant money by bringing our own rather than using their sugar or artificial sweetener). That was never offered btw. Didn't matter. My wife wondered, 'and who said this?' "The boss." Again, I explained this is a medical issue. Didn't matter. The owner or boss had spoken and evidently told the server to relay the message. I was still convinced this was just a misunderstanding and if the owner wouldn't mind coming to the table I'd explain it. We were given our check and refills to go on tea and waited. We asked, "So, is the owner coming out?" "No, he declines to come." So, in this litigious society someone with the same experience may choose to sue. I feel that I was discriminated against due to my medical condition. And the owner or boss lacked the respect to come and discuss it with us. If the owner was genuinely worried about being liable for something he should reconsider what he just did. Our consuming a medical product was no different than my taking my nutritional supplements (which I did, again, in a very small, discreet container). Or if a diabetic had to inject himself with insulin, would the owner say, 'that's an outside food, you can't do that?' Food-wise, was the owner upset that -for the first time in five- we asked if the cook could try again on the fries? They were greasy and soggy the first and the second time. Our server bent over and whispered to us ' I think it's because the cook was a young girl in the kitchen doing the frying'. Hint: turn up the temperature on the fryer. An afterthought.. if the owner is concerned about topics for which he can be sued, they allowed a couple with a very large dog to sit and be served outside. If that dog bites anyone, it's on you, dear owner. Btw, I owned a service business for nearly 40 years. I had people working for me who weren't perfect and they made mistakes. But when they goofed, I took responsibility. And when a mistake happened I made it right, going above and beyond. Because I tried to show consideration and respect for my customers. What a novel idea.
