    Sushi
    Casimir P.

    My expectations were surpassed! The sushi was fantastic, not the best selection, but they did have straight up sashimi, which is fantastic, not many buffets have that. The fish tasted fresh and delicious as well. The Chinese foods were also great, the chicken was superb. Very nice clean restaurant as well, good atmosphere and cheap price. Of the best buffets in all of Memphis.

    Bland

    Another bland no taste Chinese place trying to find places I can go that's around my way of work so and waste of time and money on bland Chinese food okay well the online ordering was great they had it fast on time another knock out ugh!!!

    a variety of food items

    Nothing here tastes very good at all. The sushi was alright. I love me a big buffet, but some (not all) of it should be tasty. Many bites went into my napkin. I didn't go back for seconds of anything at all. Dinner buffet costs $14.99 per person. Server was prompt.

    Everything on this plate was awesome..

    This was our very first time coming here! Absolutely nothing special.. nothing terrible... as of March/2019 one adult lunch buffet with out a drink is $8.99.. not bad! Staff was nice but they try to force everyone to sit close together and we don't like that so we always move. Some foods were WAAAY too salty but good flavor! We will NOT be in a rush to come back here unless we're just out in this area! Ice cream are in cups too! Sushi is AWESOME

    The food was just ok. Sushi was very generic and most everything tasted like a cucumber roll.

    I come here with family at least once a month sometimes more. Love the sushi myself and the noodles. It's worth the money every time we go.

    Below average for a Chinese buffet. $30 for two adults with drinks. Used to have crablegs on weekends, no more. Go elsewhere.

    I have been meaning to visit this place for a while, and it finally happened!!…read more As always, my review is based on my experience. Went here for a date night. I had to add my name to their waiting list through the iPad in the front desk. Real quick and simple. We were seated within 10 minutes. The service is very different than usual. They explained us that once you look at the menu and are ready to ordered to buzz on the right hand corner and a server would come and take your order. The appetizers and ramen were very delicious. The broth had a lot of flavor. The place is very uniquely decorated. Just like a bee hive. Honeycomb nooks with tables and not comfy seats though. But I liked the ambiance and decorations! I highly recommend!!

    Exceptional customer service but the flavor of food left much to be desired…read more My husband and I came in today on my birthday and ordered a couple of Tokyo Tonkotsu Shoyu bowls along with the deep fried gyoza dumplings as an appetizer. The gyoza dumplings were absolutely phenomenal. The sauce on top was delicious. They were perfectly crisp and overall the flavor will bring us back! The ramen bowls, whilst both were ordered with black garlic, one arrived with black and one arrived with white garlic broth (you can tell the difference by the flavor and the color of the broths in one of my uploaded pictures) The dark garlic bowl was by far better than the white garlic bowl. The white garlic broth was very fatty (there was a separated layer of oil on top) and was very bland in flavor. This in conjunction with the fact that there was absolutely no sort of sodium available whether through a sauce form or in the form of a salt shaker or something on the table, made a majority of the bowl inedible for me personally. The chashu pork was very good, the egg was nothing special, the other additions to the bowl didn't do much to aid it. At the end, I did try my husbands broth and it was a lot better than mine was and would've changed a lot of my feedback about my bowl. We also ordered the passion fruit drink from Tbaar and it was absolutely AMAZING. I will absolutely be back to grab this drink over and over again. The ambiance inside was great. We loved how they have the entire place set up, they're very fast to come to help when you press the button. You are otherwise not bothered at all. There's a ton of seating options. It looks really cool in there and the little booths have a curtain separator so it feels really private, which is nice. We will be back, we will probably just bring some salt with us next time.

This particular evening it was not packed for a Friday night which my husband and I thought was odd. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our dinner. We both ordered the large portion of the hibachi steak and chicken which was enough to be shared actually. The spring rolls were delicious. The only downside was that the bar option was limited due to low stock. All and all I would definitely give them another try.

Everybody who drives a "V8" one knows you can't just park them anywhere. But it was dead around there last time we stopped by. Also late that time so Idk if that plays a part in the emptiness. Im going to have to catch them earlier to peep through vibe outside. But we went in and where seated immediately, idk if because its late but we where asked if we where ordering off the hibachi or regular menu. We choose hibachi. We waited at the cook top for about 15 mins I got Spring Rolls 2 orders. They are BUSSIN BUSSIN, the food is good always so I go for the Rolls. I ordered chicken and shrimp and wifey Steak and Shrimp. Late night so they had no shrimp after checking. So I got chicken and she got steak and chicken. Thr rice is fire and a huge portion, no need for the extra bowl. They also give you veggies on side too. If you eat Hibachi you know what you up against. Peace
