Food 9/10: The food was pretty tasty, I enjoyed the sushi and the hibachi portion but the only problem I've face was my fish was too stale but I was able to pick around it. Inside 9/10: When I first walked in, everything felt calm, beautiful and soothing and there was also a delicious smell when you walk in. Service 9/10: The waitress I had was very nice and helpful. Overall, this is by far one of the best buffets I've ever been to. Good selections and a calming atmosphere is the star of the show. 9/10 read more

Hibachi Grill Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I'll start by saying, the outside shopping center has a different name for the restaurant. "UmI seafood" but it's still the hibachi grill buffet. We were confused at first. It was around 21$ which is typical buffet prices. I don't think I got my moneys worth because I'm not a big seafood (crab/fish/lobster) girl. If you are, THIS IS the PLACE for YOU! The hibachi line was too long to wait for. However, there were soooo many options. Lots of yummy stuff. Our waitress was so nice, keeping drinks full and clearing old plates. The decor all over the restaurant is neat! Makes for a good atmosphere. They keep the restaurant pretty clean which is essential. Overall it's a great place, just not for my preference. read more

This is our favorite Chinese Buffet in the greater Richmond area. The buffet features a lot of great seafood and delicious cooked items. We try to go as early to opening or start of the dinner menu since that is when to food is freshest. The replacement of food items could be better. read more

We were greeted soon as we walked in. The atmosphere was cozy and clean. The food was very flavorful and hot. They crab legs were not overcooked. The hibachi was cooked perfectly to my liking. The server was very attentive and not too much. I would definitely return again. read more

We visited for a non-traditional thanksgiving dinner and had a great dinner. I hadn't visited this location in years, but their upgrade made the restaurant 10 times better. The food selections were great! They had something for everyone. Everything was fresh and hot. Servers were friendly. Inside was clean and wasn't overly busy (probably due to the holiday), so there was enough space to really enjoy yourself without feeling overcrowded. I would definitely go back. read more

The food and service were excellent, the premises were impeccably maintained, and the staff was exceptionally courteous. I chose to dine after lunch, and the premises remained impeccably clean, with constant replenishment being provided. read more

Large variety of different entrees! Really enjoyed! Great price! Would go back again.

Let's remember I'm new to "RVA".... So I stumbled upon this spot, read the reviewers & decided to give it a try. What a hidden Gem!! This restaurant reminds me of my favorite place back home in DC. I am really big on customer service and this place has it!! Everyone was very nice and kind and attentive to your needs. The price is fair! The food quality is top tier! The food has flavor and taste so fresh like I had it made to order. They have lunch and dinner prices aswell as fresh seafood & Hibachi cooked to order. The traffic is not so busy inside. There's soft music plying in background. The atmosphere was nice. There wasn't a lot of noise even with the kids present. It's a nice family friendly, date night or solo lunch date friendly place. I will definitely come back. read more

Very upset..... I went to dinner with my boyfriend and my mother and everything was fine until it came time to pay, I give the lady that was waiting on us my card to pay and she comes back with the receipt and points at the tip line and goes tip for service then sign, and I thought that was weird to say. I always tip in cash I don't tip on my card so I crossed out the tip part and signed it. Then the lady comes to get the receipt and she sees where I crossed out the tip part and she goes "why no tip for service" and I thought that was very rude because I didn't even get a chance to go in my wallet to get the cash out for her and put it on the table, then she stands there with another lady and they're talking about it and just staring at us which was also rude so I said very loudly right to her and I asked am I not allowed to tip in cash because ur just standing there staring at us. I was very upset about that situation and it's just something you don't do. read more

Some of the offerings were very good. The chilled crab legs were impossible to open without a crab cracker, so I'm guessing a lot went to waste since there were no crackers or pickers available the night we went. The hot tables for the most part seemed fresh, some of the dishes were not labeled which might discourage some from trying something new. read more

I was in this side of town and decided to stop by and get some lunch to go. Back in the day I think this place used to be teppanyaki grill and buffet. This place is 1000 time better and so much cleaner. The food is hot and fresh and the price is amazing. I will be dining here soon to get my moneys worth. read more

I haven't had an Asian buffet in a long time. I was nervous, I liked everything but the shrimp, and salt and pepper shrimp. The crab rangoon was so good. I didnt try any other the desserts I was pretty full! read more

This has got to be a first. A Chinese buffet that has almost 5 stars. I was looking for oysters and decided to settle on a Chinese buffet with crab legs. I arrive for dinner (now 19.99) and they have oysters!!! Not the best oysters in the world but for the price, I was happy. Food is hot and fresh, wait staff is quick on clean up and refills and the place has a typical Chinese buffet feel to it. Best one I have been to. read more

Good sushi and Chinese food selection, everything I got was good although of course not authentic. Very nice atmosphere too, interior is very pretty and large. Hard to pass up a place like this when it's a buffet and yet costs less than one roll of sushi at a normal restaurant. read more

Hibachi Grill Buffet - Sushi - Buffets Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

This place is wonderful. I did not expect it to be so good. Just decided to try because we had a coupon. I started with the sushi bar. It is very good. But it is all wrapped sushi. So it is filling. You have to get a drink with the meal. I got a diet soda. Spouse got unsweetened tea. I took a picture of my desserts. They were refreshing and good. I would recommend this place. It was clean and friendly service. Although you actually service yourself. Not certain the server understands English. I was complimenting the place and she brought me a take out cup. They give you fortune cookies with the check. Overall I enjoyed this place and will be back. read more

Everything you would expect at this genre of restaurant was there. Tons of options to choose from. Staff is very friendly. I was with 8 co-workers, and everyone in my group enjoyed their food. I will eat here again the next time I am in town. read more

The first time we went on a Saturday afternoon the food was good and fresh. Since then we have been back twice in food has been ok. The best part of it is sushi and hibachi. Plenty of things to choose from but when they are not busy the food sits around too long. read more

The service was great and our server was extremely attentive. The ambiance is mellow with sturdy furniture and clean dining area. However, the food was not up to par IMHO. The quantity was there but quality was lacking - taste of the food was not I'm usually accustomed to. The buffet line need a bit of attending. Price point is not bad for what they offer hence the 3-star rating. read more

Decided to try something different today with my family, I was very disappointed, upon entering I noticed that it was humid but thought maybe it was because of the windows, unfortunately I'm thinking the ac was out. The thermostat read 79, and they had a portable unit in the floor which didn't do much in the big building. The food was disappointing in the way it looked on the buffet and the taste of certain foods was nasty so I nibbled on some fruit. I used the restroom while I was there and that was trashed, 4 stalls and only one worked properly. No I didn't complain to the manager, I pay my bill which was over $100 and left a tip and went about my day. I guess the point of my comment is that if you're looking for a decent place to eat go somewhere else. read more

Average hibachi buffet food. The decor was cute. It kind of gave mini golf vibes, & most of it felt new & renovated. The biggest downside was the food & paying extra for the dinner buffet. The snow crab legs seemed excited but they were SOOO salty, like you could only have 1 & it wasn't enjoyable. Maybe they intentionally do that so you won't eat too many but whatever the case it was disappointing. Otherwise, too much of the food was out for too long & was warm at most. You really have to dig to the bottom if you want something semi hot. Sushi was good, I'd love to see a fried sushi option though. Furthermore, the crab ragoons were soggy & not good either. I tried many different things, but I can't say anything besides the sushi was good. I'd potentially come here for the lunch buffet but never for dinner again. You can use the coupon to save a buck, if you buy a drink too. Also the person running their Instagram wouldn't answer simple questions & would just say "refer to their Instagram". read more

I will recommended even one to this place. I had took every one from my work to this place much better than Teppanyaki Grill Buffet. They always bring out fresh food and fill up the foods. read more

This place took over crab de jour.. same decor with some Japanese blossoms around. They have an assortment of dishes. They have cold crab legs with the hot butter near the egg rolls.. just so you know where it is. The service was attentive. They thresher good often, so it was always appealing to the eye. They have a crawfish boil that is tasty. Hibachi was great but need some fresh ginger n jalapeño to be perfect. Overall nice read more

I tried the other hibachi buffet in Richmond and they made me sick so I wanted to try this one since they aren't the same, this place was great! As soon as you walk in the staff greets you and they sat us down immediately. They have a lot of seating areas which is great as busy as they were. The buffet was $18.99 a person which is not bad for all you can eat, they also have crab legs on the buffet at dinner time. There is an area with someone that you place the items you want in your hibachi on a plate and hand it to them and they will cook it in front of you, it was super delicious. They have a sushi area right beside the hibachi and the ones I tried were pretty good. The floor was super slippery in some areas, they did have wet floor signs up like in the one photo I posted, but it wasn't wet? It was like soap or oil. I almost fell with my plate of food on the slope headed back to my table, so be careful! Staff kept checking on us and made sure we had drinks and a clean table. We will be back. read more

Went in @4:30 on Saturday (Memorial Day weekend). Place was slightly busy. Had to request 3x for them to replace the nasty, leftover, overcooked, soggy string beans... finally after @ 20 minutes they came out. This buffet has snow crab legs but they are on ice and soggy. They have blue clan crabs but they are tiny (barely the minimum). The service was OK, although the language barrier is difficult. (At our usual buffet the wait staff know basic words... here, we dropped a fork & asked 3 times for a replacement. We finally showed her the fork & then she understood. ) The food was very cold and overcooked for a buffet. I know that going to a buffet, I wouldn't expect a 5...but basic service, with food that is warm and not mushy? I wish I would have saved my $17! I would have done better with a supermarket frozen meal! read more

Food was good for the price, place was nice and clean, lots of choices but our waitress was beyond rude. We had intended on leaving a cash tip so on the credit card receipt we left the tip part blank. The server rudely brought our receipt back and showed us where a tip would go asking for a tip. We then said we would be paying the tip in cash to get her off our backs. Considering she was rude enough to demand a tip we went ahead with not tipping at all. When we got up to leave she confronted us and asked why we didn't leave any cash or a tip. We then told her that it was insanely rude to demand a tip and that we would've tipped her otherwise. She then walked in front of us and started speaking very loudly to a coworker in a different language in the walkway preventing half our group from being able to leave swiftly. Like I said we had intended on leaving a tip, but after being demanded to do so we then decided not to. My suggestion for this waitress is to not demand tips and to provide good service. read more

Came here opening day about two hours after they opened because I had a coupon. It was moderately crowded with several families already seated and perusing the buffet but I thankfully didn't have to wait to be seated at all. We used to be fans of this place when it was still Big Mouth Buffet, because we seemed to always catch them on good days for lunch. So glad to see it back! Place was clean, food was hot and fresh and a server came to refill my drink promptly. It's standard Asian buffet food, nothing to write home about unless you have a soft spot for places like this like I do. The man at the Hibachi station knows what he's doing too and didn't over or undercook any of the meat. Will be going home with a smile on my face and a full belly for sure. read more

Hibachi Grill Buffet - Buffet restaurant entrance! - Buffets Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

About half of the buffet food tasted like blood had been spilled on it, uncooked. It was not good.

Food was just ok. Ate on a Sunday when they serve dinner buffet all day for $19.99 plus drinks $3.50. They offer only snow crab legs (COLD ONlY) at dinner time. The few sushi rolls were better than expected. If you like COlD crab legs then this is worth the money. read more

Don't come with high expectations. This place is basically an overpriced rebranded China Buffet. Most of the food was cold and bland. The sushi barely has any fish on it and is just clumps of reheated rice. Dessert is absolutely appalling with disintegrating cake bread and expired ice cream (PLEASE remember to check all the expiration dates there as half of them expired multiple months prior when I came. Staff/management couldn't care less and acted like it wasn't their problem). Only decent section was the hibachi which tasted fine. I will admit that the atmosphere is interesting which is the only reason this deserves anything more than 1 star. read more
