    Born in Dallas, driven past this place maybe a million times and finally pulled in today! Started off with the Mongolian grill protein and udon noodles - soy sauce, garlic, Mongolian and volcano spicy sauce was 10/10 Wings - 8/10 not heavy on Buffalo sauce Stir fried green beans - my all time buffet item 8/10 Fried soft shell crabs - 8/10 claws were a but hard to eat , chef should've smashed them a lil Mango jello dessert - my fav, felt like a kid again 10/10 Dinner for 2 $35 can't beat this price for AYCE on a Friday night!

    For the point point and quality this is pretty good deal! We came for lunch on a sat and it was AYCE buffet for $16.95. They seated us quickly during 1pm rush and the inside was super clean. We got sushi, chocolate fountain desserts, and the Mongolian buffet noodles that's cooked on the spot. The sushi was pretty fair for it being a buffet- we got some nigiri pieces and some rolls. the workers were always bringing out fresh food so it wasn't sitting out for too long. For $16 I'd come here again- the food here is decent and affordable!!

    Pretty good deal for ayce - I'd say you get what you pay for. There's a lot of variety to choose from, which I was impressed with. There's even a station where they stir fry for you. Big seating area and lots of stations to get food so it doesn't get super crowded. They had chinese food, fish, crawfish, pizza, sushi, and more. Food was average but that's fine for a buffet at a relatively low price. The experience was good for a lower priced buffet.

    Quality food for the expansive buffet they have. Two highlights were the sushi bar and the habachi. There is a bar in which you can pick out your ingredients the chef will cook to order. There are a lot of options. Cajun bar, Italian bar, Chinese bar, ect. Place was packed but the service was still really great. They persistently came and filled waters, cleared tables, ect.

    Good desserts

    The food was good and the services was good all the workers were nice and stuff was good. I said give us a five star.

    Nice and clean buffet area

    Before my operation, I could put the hurt on a Chinese buffet. Three or four plates easy. Nowadays, I have to pick carefully, because 1plate is the limit. We picked King Buffet because of the great reviews, and they were right. We loved the food. Mike had some of everything! I had some shrimp, mussels, and the octopus salad, which I really, really liked. The sauce used on the mussels was just wonderful. The restaurant and the buffet area were both very clean. They constantly brought out fresh food. There was a nice selection of sushi, and I did have one piece. And of course, don't forget the free ice cream! King Buffet is definitely better than the buffet restaurants here in Abilene. I recommend them, and will definitely be back!

    I came here for lunch today after a 10 year hiatus from this gem. I will never wait that long to…read morereturn again, and may come every week going forward. The vegetarian buffet is relatively small, but nutritionally diverse and dense. Dishes today ranged from simple steamed broccoli and carrots to curried cauliflower and multiple legume dishes, to a salad bowl with a wide range of fresh colorful veggies. You will leave full and happy, I fully expect, if you try it too. The little restaurant is housed in a beautiful ornate temple, and has a lovely outdoor courtyard to dine in on pleasant days (I eat inside when it's hot or cold out.) Service is minimal, but attentive by buffet joint standards. Parking is a secure private lot and spaces are plentiful. The neighborhood is a bit sketchy, but you are fully separated from it if you park in the secure lot. For $15 at lunch, you will likely have your most nutritious meal of your (pick a time period), and get a free drink and desserts. Some items are available for upcharge, but I find them to be unnecessary. The vibe is temple casual and reminds me of hippy establishments I used to frequent in the 70s and 80s. I highly recommend you try it, if you love fresh vegan fare at a bargain price and want to check out the lovely temple and grounds while you're there.

    My girlfriend and I heard about this place while at another dinner, and a nearby couple we were…read morechatting with recommended it. Getting here was only slightly tricky, as it's not located in a strip mall or anything, but down a somewhat crummy street, in its own gated area, with a parking lot. The buffet was modest but diverse, with a fully vegetarian buffet where 90% of the options are also gluten-free. I really enjoyed the Sambhar soup, Kofta balls in tomato gravy, the spicy-pickled peppers, and the Chickpea curry. The outdoor dining area is just lovely, especially with good weather, and the temple grounds are very peaceful and enjoyable. Very reasonable price for such a relaxing and unique meal, and the staff were very friendly. My only complaint is that since we got there about an hour after lunch, some of the food had gotten a bit dry.

    I'm going to post a review and it says this place is permanently closed?? I ate here so recently!…read moreNot sure this is correct. We went for brunch, which I will admit is overpriced. $75pp before drinks? Wow. Definitely go hungry. Were we mad at it though? Definitely not. There was so much to try, I loved the sushi bar, the kids loved the dessert bar, especially the chocolate fountain. The location is nice and upscale and it's a nice place to go celebrate something. I hope it's not actually closed!

    Went last night to celebrate my birthday. I've always wanted to go to Komodo ever since I moved to…read moreTexas which was 4 years ago. It was my very first time going to Komodo and the first time experience was not the greatest. Before I go into my review, I did enjoy the ambiance, decor and food. The food was actually really good and the portions were decent. I ordered the wagyu beef dumplings and garlic noodles for starters. I initially chose the Peking duck and was super excited to try it. This is where it started to downhill... As we were ordering starters and drinks, the drinks came out fairly quick and the starters did take about 15-20 minutes which I understand it was a Saturday night. After most of the appetizers came out, we decided to order our entrees because we noticed how long the appetizers took. About hour and some time goes by, the waiter comes back to tell me they just ran out of Peking duck. Which was disappointing so I quickly ordered the Korean fried chicken. The timing with how they ran out the entrees was a whole mess. There were two food runners that were confused with the food orders. 1 of 8 of my friends got their food way before all of us, we had waited an additional 15 minutes before 2 more entrees came out. Oh! My second appetizer (garlic noodles) still haven't come out yet and some of my friends had their entrees....My Korean fried chicken came out but it was fairly quickly so I'm not sure they just threw it in real quick for an apology of taking so long. Two of the breasts we're hard and tough to cut. So then we waited and waited for my very last friend to get her Lo mein...it was an extra 45 minutes until she was able to get her food!!!!! Unacceptable. I was so irritated about that and just ruined the mood. We were all done eating our food by then. We were already frustrated and ready to go at that point, but as soon as she got her food, the veggies were undercooked and it was an overall upsetting situation. I wish I had a better outcome and better celebration for my birthday. I would only recommend this place if you have nothing to do..because you will be waiting for your food for a long time. I suggest to eat before you go and by the time you digest, your food will be ready

    We were visiting from out of town and decided to celebrate my daughter's 11th birthday at this…read morerestaurant. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt special. Upon check-in, we were offered a complimentary drink before heading upstairs, where we checked in again and were escorted to our table. The waiting area was beautiful and offered stunning views of downtown. My daughter ordered the 8-ounce filet mignon with a side of macaroni and cheese, while I chose the salmon steak with mashed potatoes. My daughter's steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and she absolutely loved it. My salmon was also excellent and came with a delicious caviar butter sauce that complemented the dish perfectly. For dessert, my daughter ordered the Crown Block Sundae, which came with a variety of toppings. Since it was her birthday, the staff brought it out with sparklers and "Happy Birthday" written on the plate, which was a thoughtful and memorable touch. Our waiter was friendly and courteous, but he wasn't as attentive to our table as he seemed to be with some of the others nearby. One thing to note is that an 18% gratuity is automatically added to the bill. After presenting the check, our waiter mentioned that any additional tip would go directly to him. I found that comment a bit unusual, as it could imply that the automatic gratuity is not fully distributed to the service staff. Overall, we had a wonderful experience, and it was well worth it for such a special occasion. While the food, atmosphere, and views were excellent, this is definitely a splurge, so be prepared to spend a significant amount if you dine here.

    We've always wanted to check this place out and I have to say, we were so disappointed. For the…read morecost of this place (almost $100 per person), I expect not only their food to be good but their service as well. Unfortunately, from the get go, we started off on a bad note. We made reservations for Sunday brunch to celebrate my brother-in-laws birthday (he was in from out of town). When we walked in there were a bunch of people seated in the sitting area, some people were standing about the mimosa bar area as well. You have to wait for the elevator to go up so we took a seat while we waited. No one told us that once you check in, you have to stand in line for the elevator. Maybe they said something but it was fairly loud and we may have missed it. When the hostess came around she recognized that we checked in but were not in line - our mistake but we didn't know. All she had to do was direct us to get in line. We didn't need her attitude like she was exasperated with us as if we're children. We get upstairs, get our order in and start our family meal. Everything is going great, we're starting to wind down with some desserts and coffee. My father-in-law isn't a sweets person and was done with his meal. Our server came around with water but he declined since he was done. We recommended that he try a dessert we liked, which he did try. After that he needed water and asked the server for some when she came by with coffee for us. Her comment was, verbatim "I already asked you if you wanted water and you said no." My father-in-law apologized, even though he was not in the wrong here. She realized her mistake because her tone completely changed and she said it's no problem and she got the water. Her comment and reaction caught us so off guard. It ended our meal and celebration on such a sour note. This type of behavior is so off putting anywhere, but especially at an establishment like this. That being said, the food was ok. We all enjoyed the seafood station. The oysters, ceviche, and crab claws were a hit with all of us. Their bread/bagel station with all the toppings was also really good. Loved their juices! The individual dishes were ordered were ok, some better than others. The carving station was ok as well. The desserts surprisingly disappointed. Ambience is nice, view is good. As far as the staff/service goes, the only good thing about was those that were bussing the tables. They were all nice, polite, and friendly. I know this is long winded but the overall service needs to be better. It likely that ours is an isolated experience but it's the only one we have, and probably will have because of how bad it was and how we felt when we left. Everyone deserves respect, if we give it, we expect it back at the very least.
