Been here before, very low key place to grab lunch buffet style, no big hype or special things that are out of the ordinary buffet's just a local neighborhood place serving some decent food. I tried the salmon today but just didn't agree with me it has been sitting out since they open at 11 AM. Everything else was good lots of variety to choose from. When you want a quick and satisfying lunch or dinner this is the price prices are good. read more

The food is cold and they were measuring kids for their heights if they were over a certain height they were counted as a "adult" never will i recommend this place after the changed they are making.Horrible service an manners. read more

Let me first say that they don't have a hibachi and when we called and asked if they had crab legs the person at the register said yes but they don't they have blue crabs their selection is very small but it's a reasonable price the drinks are included and it tastes pretty decent. So it's worth to try if you're hungry and you're in the area. read more

I have no clue what exactly happened to this place but the food was absolutely horrible. food was cold and fish didn't look good as well. And to top off the whole experience not only did they charge my card! but they canceled the recharged! so they got double the amount of payment! Becareful! read more

I love this place! The food is great, drinks are free, the variety is good, and the servers are awesome. My only complaint is you have to ask for butter and twice now, my food was cold. Other than those 2 things, I love the place. I'll still come. read more

Food was cold. Not a big selection to choose from. Everything tasted like it's been sitting there for two days. And the BATHROOMS are disgusting. The bathrooms alone made me lose my appetite. And not to mention a customer had put her hands on the pizza just for her to grab a slice. The table busser walked past our table plenty of times never grabbed our plates, but was grabbing everybody else's plate. read more

I was eating the wings and thought they were pretty alright I later see that some of the ones I have ate looked raw, the next day I woke up with salmonella. Never eating here again and y'all should really get shut down. read more

Food is cold and nasty not the mention some of the reviews here how there is ppl who found roaches at the restaurant, I will not be returning i am so disappointed and disgusted I knew something was off at this place. read more

My family and I we're sitting trying to enjoy dinner, then realize that there was roaches crawling around on the wall next to us as well as the floor. Guys be aware! HIBACHI CITY BUFFET 35th ave and Southern. Very poor customer service we asked for a refund after seeing the roaches crawling. They refused to give us a refund. read more

Same nostalgia as always! I used to come here when I was younger and the food was always a comfortable yummy memory to keep. I've gone two times in the last two or three months and they are always cleaning! They are always wiping down the buffet counters and cleaning tables with plates and cups. The food is always hot and warm when I go, they are always quick to replace the food and have someone come our frequently to see what is almost done and ready to refill. The noodles are such a delicious spicy but sweet and savory. I love the chicken sticks and free ice cream cups and soft drinks. I only ever come to this buffet and not Lin's because I had a bad experience with their cleanliness, but I can see the cleaning in front of my eyes. The staff are always great at their job and quick too. Five stars, love this place and will probably come back soon! read more

Hibachi City Buffet - Sushi Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Visited for the first time today-- this place is fabulous. A great selection, and everything was so fresh. The restaurant was super clean and we enjoyed wathcing the Olympics on several TVs while we ate. Reasonably priced as well. Regarding the prior reviews, the lady at the cash register wasn't "friendly" exactly (who the hell cares) but she was businesslike and professional. read more

Did the place change owners or something? Lots of these reviews just don't represent what we had. The floors are literally peeling up. (One lady tripped and almost fell because the Flooring is curling up from being wet and not sealed) The place smells like moldy mop water. The food is just, I can't describe it, it's like someone saw pictures of Chinese food but had to shop at a dollar store for the ingredients. The Chinese noodles were basically spaghetti noodles with salt and orange food coloring. Same with the "fried rice" do they not know how to make these Chinese food staples? Basically just orange colored salty rice. Orange?? So crazy. The chicken on a stick was really good though. Same with the Chinese donuts. But so many of the dishes were just terrible. The most egregious offense was the sweet and sour sauce. Why does it taste like ketchup!?!? How do you mess up sweet and sour sauce!? Did they seriously mix the sweet and sour with ketchup to save money or something? So confusing. This place is just sad, run down, and ratchet. We really went to this place with very low expectations and still were horribly disappointed. I hate leaving reviews like this, normally I don't because I know how hard it is to keep a business but something is actually wrong with this place. read more

We found a MAGGOT in the brocolli and when we spoke to the owner he didn't want to give us a whole refund, he only wanted to refund me and not my husband because his didn't have a maggot even though it came from the same tray!! Then he tried saying that we had been there for 45 min eating all the other food (not true!) And that he recognized us because we had complained before!! ALSO NOT TRUE!!! The audacity this man had to pretend the rest of the food was okay and make these accusations! I WILL be calling AZ Health Department & Maricopa County Department to file a complaint! I attached a picture of the maggot and another complaint someone made just a few months ago! The new management here does not care to serve spoiled food! read more

Hibachi City Buffet - Another review - Sushi Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

I have seen the negative reviews and decided to pipe in. Everyone who has reviewed this buffet has slammed it for taste and selection. What they are failing to share is that their dinner plate was only $11.00. My GF and I went to this place due to seeing it as I finished up Golf at Aguila. We were seated immediately and offered drinks at our table. The Buffet was fresh and and every dish seemed to be restocked well. The Crawdads I had were good and not the least bit soggy; hard to find at buffets. The attendants were quick to scoop empty plates and filled our pop when we were low. I eat a lot of weird dishes and I realized that on my way back to the table with plate of Crawdads and another plate of Soft-shell crab, that I was that TOKEN asian who eats weird stuff!!! Feels good being able to find a place that I can get this kind of food for reasonable prices. With drinks, the bills came out to $27 which is reasonable for two people at dinner. Would give it 5 Stars if they had more of a variety of dishes. that said, no regrets at all! read more

This was my first time at this place. First I would like to say they have an A grading at the door. Okay...the food is not what I expected what so ever. Friday evening around 6pm. 3 adults total price of $47.21. The price was not too bad, I noticed they charge a little more on Friday's due to them having "crab legs". As you will be able to see from the pictures below, the crab legs are extremely small, the shell is super soft and the meat tastes and feels like it was boiled too long. The fried shrimp with the head on was tasty. The oysters were terrible and almost had a chemical taste. read more

Me and my family decided to give this buffet a try, WORST decision. We found COCKROACHES in our chow mei noodles. Both my daughter and sons plates had them. We took the plates to the register and showed the guy asked for a refund and left. All the guy said "wow I don't know what's happening " wish I woulda took a picture of it but I was so disturbed. read more

Sushi was garbage,worst sushi I have ever tasted. Felt limited on the food. Ice tea tasted like rotten eggs, 0/10 read more

Sampled several items first time there, today., took it to go. Had shrimp in garlic sauce, pot stickers, sauteed mushrooms kun pao chicken, pork spare ribs, teriyaki chicken, and salt and pepper shrimp. Shrimp in garlic sauce, no flavor, same with the mushrooms. Enough said. However, the pork spare ribs, tasted spoiled. AND I MEAN SPOILED. The kun pao chicken, probably from a bag, was weak tasting. But the real meal killer, the salt and pepper shrimp...the shrimp is so old and been cooked so many times, that it can't be peeled, it had turned to mush, peel them and they disintegrated. I really had saved you like this place, but, can't recommend it at all. But on the bright side the white rice was ok. read more

Place is very bad. $32.89 for 2. A lot of the food selections lack flavor. A lot of of old food in the buffet area sushi is very bad low quality. If I have to say something good about the place it is clean. Just food is very bland. Food doesn't get switched out often enough. Fruit area is ok... the best thing was the chandelier and the ice cream... read more

This was my first experience at this place and I couldn't believe how awful it was. My husband and I originally wanted to eat at Mingos (which we love) and found out it was closed. We were in the mood to try something new so Hibachi City Buffet it was... I was excited to see they had a great variety of food but upon tasting it I realized that it seemed under or over cooked and not very good. The French fries were the best item in the buffet. We will not be returning. read more

Found this place since we just moved to Laveen & it's the best buffet we have been to in Arizona. Everyone raves about Lin's but it's literally not authentic. The fact they even had crab legs fried was a surprise to me and my mom. We originally come from Washington state and the buffets are superb out there. This is the most authentic tasting buffet. It's limited but it's also very cheap for a buffet so we didn't expect it to be a grandiose buffet. read more

So I came in to "Dine-in" with my girlfriend, mind you that's already 45$. As we get done eating I go ask for a box because I didn't finish my food and the guy comes chasing me saying I need to pay for a to go box which would be 22.50$ more. Even though it's food I already had on my plate. I didn't want it to go to waste so I thought I would just eat it later. The guy was telling me it's against their "policy", what a piece of sh*t policy. read more

The first time I had gone here it was great. Everything tasted good and the food was hot. The second time, everything changed dramatically. The food is cold, overcooked or undercooked. You couldn't even eat the crab legs because they were so dry. The egg drop soup tasted like there was a lot of pepper in it and the chips that go will the soup were corn chips! I've gone back two other times trying to give the restaurant a chance and I can't! It comes to the point where I'm forcing myself to eat the food. I won't be returning and this restaurant doesn't deserve to be open. read more

All I can say is "National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation" where Eddie takes Clark to the "Best Buck 49 Buffet in Town" It was only 7 pm, place was more than half empty. Shame for the area and a Friday night since dining in Laveen is still limited. Nothing was being replenished, no one at the BBQ grill where the neon sign was flashing. Not one beef entree, half the tags of what it was were missing or wrong. Server only returned once to collect plates, never for any refills. Sign when you leave is humorous, Free Meal on Your Birthday. Followed by Free meal on your birthday if you bring six guests. You could offer me free meal for me and my six guests, no thank you! read more

This dine took place Sunday September 2, 2018. I write this now because I am shocked at what others say. I went in the afternoon, not at night. On Labor day there was plenty of parking, and the staff took care of me quickly. The food was hot. There was plenty of it. It was fresh, and there was a large selection. I do not know what goes on in the evening there, but it's very good at 1 PM. read more

I like this restaurant under new owner. The foods are not the same. They are better more testy. And the price is very good.

This restaurant offers safety gloves to use while dishing out food on your plate. It's a small buffet but the food was very impressive!!! And you can't beat the price either!!! read more

Food was stale and tasteless. Even the hot & sour soup was neither hot not sour. Meat was tough and chewy and seafood was cold. Had better food in thhe military . read more

No. I have this place one star for being open. And one star for having hot food. When we walked in the greeter just blankly stared at us like we were supposed to say the secret password. Finally got seated without this or any other person muttering once sentence to us. My pink lemonade lasted wierd and the glass had a couple of small pieces of ice on a hot az summer day. By the time the drink got to me the ice was almost completely melted. The food was wierd but there were a couple of things that were fresh (spring rolls, mashed potatoes, teriyaki chicken, general tao, lime wedges), but there were other items not so fresh (fried rice, lychee, fries, nuggets, vegetables). BOTTOM LINE: I don't like my drinks with NO ICE, I don't appreciate people ignoring my business until it's time for me to pay then trying to appease me by making small talk, the whole ambiance was wierd, and there were too many red flags and items that were not fresh that I will NEVER be going back. The only thing I liked was the price and I probably wouldn't have paid a penny more to be there. read more

really terrible no social distance all people together some people no use gloves to take the food all tables together no sanitazer y saw the only waittress that was the same person to clean the floor wash dishes clean the table without sanitaizer be carefull with covid read more

I'm surprised they are still open for business , very bad service plus food always cold. If they had no star that's what i would give zero

Took a waiter 25 minutes to refill our drinks and literally only 8 other costumers in this place! I get why no one comes here this has to be the most horrid place!!! They really needa shut this place down if they are not about their costumers !!! I wish i could give ZERO STARS !!!!! Food was either undercooked or freaking burnt just super disappointed in this "GRAND OPENING " THEY should put "GOING OUT OF BUSINESS" read more

anyone who gives more than 1 star is either fake review or they have no idea what good food is. This is a disgrace to the china buffet. This food was bad on so many levels. The only thing that was good was wonton soup. Something no one can screw up. Everything else was pathetic. Gave my wife and I nasty ass gas. We eat from many china restaurants here in valley. This was the worse one of them all. The hospitality was horrible from the start. We was near by waiting for my wife's truck to get finished having tires replaced and figure this was close by. We'd try it out. Holy crap this food was wrong on so many levels of cooking. Want to avoid eating fast food? Well fast food is better than this place. Will never go back.... read more
