    So I came here for a wedding reception and I will say not only was the food amazing, and the service was perfect. The place was super clean and the chairs are comfortable, the dance floor was large and the bathrooms were clean. I was just a guest but the Indian food here was some of the best I have had at a restaurant. I really enjoyed the Marsala Chai and all the food. I would come back here in a heartbeat if in the area. I highly recommend this location.

    Buffet - items empty or covered and no taste

    Reviews are misleading. Food lacks taste. We were party of 7 - Sunday afternoon and 0 service. No one to refill water or ask for Naan and the worst part they were not even refilling the buffet items. The pictures speak for itself. Chicken Tikka was overdone. Fish had no taste. Unfortunately none of the items were worth the price that they are charging. Ambience is decent, they have spent a lot of money but if the food and service sucks, what will you do with ambience.

    Just as an update - this time around, the mild felt like a medium and the medium felt like a hot. Not sure if it varies night to night or if that's changed over time.

    Overall good Indian food, especially because of a buffet style. It's been a hard time to find a good Indian buffet in the Sacramento area, but this is a good spot overall! Wish there was a bit more variety.

    Where do I start, and what do I say? Well I do know what to say but I am just so in awe of this…read moreplace that just to leave something less than amazing would be a disservice to the review that I would leave here. After Church today the wife and I had some errands to run and in the process were hungry and were trying to figure out what / where to eat. So she had asked me what I wanted and I had mentioned the Chinese place in Granite Bay but since they werent a buffet we really wanted to look for something that was more buffet like. So the wife did a Google Search and was able to find this place. So we traveled 20 minutes from Folsom to Citrus Heights to take a look and see if we were intested in eating here. Let me tell you the first minute we walked in, we were Greeted by the staff as they said "Welcome In, where would you like to sit?" So we found a table to sit at and then began walking around trying to find something to eat. Let me tell you that the decorations in this place are absolutely Beautiful. Thought I was walking around China for a minute, being that I have never been there it felt like I was. Everything was very clean and there was tons of food to choose from. They have everything from Sushi, a Hibachi Bar, Rice, Chicken of all sorts, Calamari, Squid, a bunch of different fruits, Ice Cream, I mean the list could go on and on and on. There was so much food there that if you leave hungry that's your fault. I can't give this place JUST a 5 star because I'm just so In awe of what I saw when I walked in and what I ate. This place deserves a 10. This Chinese Restaurant is by FAR one of the best Chinese Restaurants I have seen in my Chinese Food Restaurant eating career. Thank you Yummy Buffet Grill & Sushi, your Hospitality, your Food, the Cleanliness of your Restaurant will force my hand to come back. Oh, I think I also ran into the General Manager of the Restaurant because when we were walking by her leaving she said "How was everything?" Because I told her that this was our first time eating here and our response was "Everything was very delicious and we will be back" Her reply was "Great, I am glad you enjoyed it and I'll see you soon!"

    If you were looking to eat crab legs, I will say this place is a steal, for $25 a person you can…read moreeat as much Alaskan crab legs, that your stomach desires. There are plenty of food options here I wouldn't say everything is top quality but for $25 including all you can eat crab I think that's a great bargain. They don't have a lot coming out all at once so you may have to wait or come back to see if it's been replenished. They do have sushi here, but I'll be quite honest, not the greatest quality . Plenty of Chinese food options from calms , oysters, fried fish , beef broccoli, honey walnut shrimp, basically if panda express has it you can get it here. Most of the Asian food is mediocre as I would still choose panda express if I had the option. Service is friendly, definitely a more upscale looking Asian buffet than most I have been to. They even allow customers to purchase a to go box. I would come back here just for the crabs since I can't find anywhere else in the Sacramento area that offers crab legs besides the hard rock Casino, but that's twice the price of here.

    We came here hoping for quality over quantity. The place itself is large--definitely outdated--but…read moreit looked decent enough, and the staff was kind and welcoming. It also wasn't very busy, so we wanted to give it a fair shot. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill fast once we sat down to eat. The sweet-and-sour soup was extremely oily and had an off taste. More concerning, nearly all of the food on the buffet was cold. The only thing remotely warm was the soup. When we brought it up, the server explained they were transitioning between lunch and dinner and offered for us to wait while they replaced the food. I appreciate the offer, but that doesn't excuse having a buffet--especially with seafood, poultry, and meat--sitting out cold. That's not just unappetizing, it raises serious health concerns. We chose not to stay and eat. Again, the staff was polite, but food safety and quality just weren't there.

The fish to rice ratio is glorious; they do not skimp out on the cuts of fish at all. My favorites of the nigiri are the yuzu yellowtail and the salmon. These two are easily the best out of them all (and the seared salmon belly, but this is only one order per person). In my opinion, the rolls themselves aren't too noteworthy. But I do check out any specials they have written on the board. We sprinkle in a few of the hot kitchen/appetizer items just to break through the routine of all the raw fish. Some notable items are the takoyaki and baked mussels - also the lychee sorbet for dessert. The staff have been great every time I've visited, too. Once, during a really busy rush, a waitress noticed that we've been waiting for our order for a long time and checked on our items for us. Another time, a waiter gave us a giant bowl of ginger after we requested refills. The latest time, our waitress advised us that the item we ordered wasn't very popular and suggested that we only get one just to try it out first -- and she was a saint for that! That truffle salmon dish wasn't great, but she was wonderful for warning us. We really appreciated the transparency.
