This buffet is located in Banilad within Gaisano Country Mall center. If you are coming from…read moreMandaue area stay on your right side and do not get on the bridge, we made the mistake and got on the bridge and end up passing the entrance closest to Family Choice buffet. There was another entrance up ahead but seemed as if it was only one way, so we opted to make a u-turn ahead. We then went back to the underpass ahead of Gaisano Country Mall and made a u-turn at the underpass at the second turn you can make without any signs indicating u-turns weren't allowed. If you miss the first parking area closest to Family Choice there is another parking area entrance ahead on the otherside. We arrived at the buffet about 5:00 pm and staff indicated they were still setting up. About 5 to 10 minutes later they indicated it was ok for us to start. So we grabbed some plates and checked out what they had. They didn't have much for a buffet, about maybe 9 entrees (including 1 choice of soup, bird's nest soup) at the main entree area and about 5 to 6 in the salad area. The only thing that was hot as it should be, was the soup. The beef caldereta was chewy, the lumpia was soggy, the cooked spinach was bitter, this green bean dish was decent. Green beans were crispy, which was good. I didn't partake in the other offerings as numerous flies were just parading through. My wife had kinilaw (fish or seaweed eaten raw usually with vinegar and chili) and she indicated that it was prepared sweet. She didn't expect the kinilaw to be sweet so it wasn't a pleasant surprise. For dessert, you had a choice of pineapple, watermelon and or diy halo halo, which they kept the ice in a suspicious looking cooler that did not look clean at all. Restroom: This is an appetite killer. Disgusting!! That should've been an indication what we were getting into. Just flat out gross!! The restaurant in general was not clean. Over head lights appear to be filthy and the restaurant itself is not maintained well. This buffet used to be on Gorordo and in those days the restaurant appeared to be in better condition with more varieties of food offerings. Sadly, this is not the case anymore. Buffet was 240 pesos per adult (does not include drinks) for dinner. Gaisano Country Mall charges 20 for parking but free for the first 3 hours if you or someone in your group is a senior citizen with i.d.

This buffet is located at City Time Square in Mandaue across from Park Mall. Once you enter City…read moreTimes Square head towards the end and you'll find Tokyo Table. Upon reading some reviews, I called to confirm their promotion where a birthday celebrant is complimentary. I called and advised that the birthday celebrant's birthday will be the following day but intend to celebrate it the day before. The man stated that as long as there were atleast 2 paying adults per 1 birthday celebrant, then indeed, they were complimentary. I asked to reconfirm and he stated, "yes, birthday month is ok". So off we went. I also notice that there was a 10% discount for checking in using yelp. We arrived at about 6:30 pm. I advised I called earlier on the day regarding the birthday promo and said the birthday girl was with us in tow. 5 adults in total. She then said oh there needs to be 6 of you for the birthday celebrant to be free. I said thats not what I was told earlier. So she went to ask some other male receptionist as I stated I spoke with a man earlier. Long story short, There was only 5 of us so depsite the wrong info, everyone was charged including the birthday girl. I then showed them the yelp check in promo then they stated it was expired. By then I was like what in the %$*!! Anyway at 740 per person weekday dinner, paying for one other person was not gonna break the bank. It was just disappointing that one has to mislead the public in order for people to eat here. They asked for the birthday girl's i.d., which we gave, and she still had to pay. *womp womp* What was the point of asking for her identification if you still weren't going to honor your promo. Now on to the food. Variety was way better than most other buffets in Cebu that I've tried. They had a mix of Filipino, Korean, Chinese, but mostly Japanese offerings. Everything I tasted was hot and flavorful. We opted to do hot pot but realized there was what they call a "mookata" (a heating utensil to cook both hotpot and yakiniku at the same time). Sadly, we only found out about the mookata at the end of the meal while sitting around trying to decide if we were gonna have another go at it. They also had a good selection of desserts that included my favorite, bread pudding. Their bread pudding was moist but lacked the custom bourbon or whisky sauce. It did have sauce though, just not sure what kind. The sushi had a different taste than what I've grown accustomed to. They added some kind of mushroom or something in one of their maki rolls. Haven't had that before (tasted strange). Their hot pot broth (we chose chicken) was seasoned a little salty but didn't mind it since we had veggies in there. Charge included drinks (even unlimited refills of San Miguel Beer, on tap) We asked for hot green tea, but stated it will be an additional 60 pesos added to the buffet price, but that you may have unlimited refills. I noticed at about 8:30ish the staff started putting up dinnerware. I thought they closed at 10 pm. *shrugs* I find it rude to be doing this while many patrons are still dining. Strange etiquette indeed. Despite the annoyance in the beginning, food quality was pretty good and even rivaled with hotel buffets. Should you need to call them, I advise to ask for the person's name of whom you spoke with before hanging up to avoid a similar situation I endured. However, Jennabeth (receptionist lady) was very professional and warm. She was apologetic at the end. (Thank you for that, Jennabeth!) Restroom stalls are super tiny in the lady's room. So just an fyi if your used to Texas standard size restroom stalls. They also had only one sink. Are we to wait in line whilst someone is doing there makeup in front of said sink?!? *rolls eyes* Free wifi, ask a waiter or waitress for the password. 20 pesos was charged for parking as you leave City Time Square.

Every once in a while I like to take a break from the usual routine carenderia or eating home in…read moreorder to stay on budget. Today was the day I decided to take a break, and decided to go to Tokyo Table in Tipolo, Mandaue City, Cebu City. It's a bit far from Cebu City, but if your in the area and looking for clean, pleasant place to have a nice meal with professional service this is the place. The presentation gives an aura of quality and the ambiance is very pleasant. The cuisine is primarily Japanese and is buffet style but they also offer the ability to barbecue your food, as well as Chinese Dim Sum dishes and the ability to make you own Vietnamese soup noodle dish called Pho. I have also head that they do not use MSG in their cooking since I am not fond of its use and despite that the food is still delicious in IMHO. During lunch hours, the dessert selection is limited to ice cream, halox2, and taho. But dinner time is when you get the full selection which includes creme brulee. Its a welcome sight to have a place like this in this part of town. If you are in the area, and are in the mood for asian cuisine specializing in Japanese.. definitely add this place to the list.
