    Happy birthday!
    Karina N.

    Very good establishment. Very good service. My family and I come for the pulpo plate. It was so good! A very aesthetically pleasing plate with all the right flavors. They make a perfectly pickled cabbage with the pulpo that is soooo good! The tostone and the shrimp fried rice on the plate is also a good addition. I'm sure they have other good plates but this one is worth coming for! Their horchata drink is very good! They were so attentive of our table and even let us bring in a homemade pie for the bday girl and put on a birthday song. Very sweet crew. My mom and brother really enjoy it here and I'm pretty sure we will be back soon!

    The food is fantastic! The garlic toast and soup they bring you as a starter are also out if this world. Best fried rice too!

    Always enjoy the food here , but today I was attended to by Austin who was very kind and helpful…read morewith my order. Had a great meal from several options todays pick: Shrimp and snow crab boil It came with potatoes and corn In a medium hot garlic and lemon pepper sauce Great meal , great service

    I visited Crusty Crab last night and ordered the small seafood platter with Cajun sauce. The sauce…read moreitself was absolutely delicious--flavorful and well-balanced. The potato, corn, and side of rice were also excellent. However, once we began eating the seafood, things took a sharp turn. After just a few bites--a couple of shrimp, two clams, and half a crab leg--I began to feel extremely nauseous. The flavor was overwhelming and unpleasant, almost like seawater, and I couldn't stomach any more. My dining companion and I left 97% of the seafood untouched. I requested lemon water or something to cleanse my palate, but the discomfort was immediate and intense. Our waiter was outstanding--attentive, understanding, and very professional. He brought over the manager on duty, Angel, to address the issue. I want to be clear: I wasn't looking for a refund or to avoid paying. I simply wanted the dish to be acknowledged as inedible and, ideally, accommodated appropriately since I couldn't eat it. Unfortunately, the response I received from Angel was shockingly rude and unprofessional. From the moment he approached our table, he was defensive and dismissive. When I mentioned that the seafood didn't taste fresh and that I was feeling sick, he took it personally and responded aggressively, insisting their seafood is always fresh and that they've never received complaints. I explained that I've been a loyal customer and this location is actually one of our favorites, but the food that night was not up to standard. Rather than listening, Angel continued to argue and even questioned whether I was truly feeling sick, claiming it would take 24-48 hours for symptoms to appear. I reminded him he was a restaurant manager--not a medical professional--and that making such claims was both inappropriate and dismissive. When I asked for his name, he became even more confrontational. He loudly stated, "I don't gotta write down shit for nobody," and walked away. This level of disrespect and lack of accountability was truly appalling. What upset me most was not the food, but the way I was treated. Angel showed no empathy or professionalism. After a lengthy and uncomfortable discussion, he finally offered a 25% discount, only to later apply just 10% at checkout. I have never been treated so poorly in a restaurant setting. I will be contacting corporate regarding this matter and am also considering speaking with legal counsel due to the severity of how this situation affected me physically and emotionally.

    This place has made it's rounds on social media which is how I discovered it. It is way out in…read moreHumble so when I found myself in the area, I made sure to make stopping here a priority. I came with some friends for dinner on a Saturday and this place was packed. It's tucked away in the middle of a shopping strip and the parking lot isn't that big. That being said, parking sucks. What they do offer that I haven't ever seen at a Chinese buffet is valet parking. I made a quick drive around the parking lot and decided to valet to save time. The young gentleman parking cars solo did a great job and works on tips. You pay what you want. They have a pretty large waiting area which we luckily didn't have to utilize. We got seated right away, but soon after, the waiting area filled up. The space inside is huge with lots of seating. They have neon lights and TVs everywhere which is a step up from your regular buffets. In the center is the buffet area with different stations and is very organized and clean. Customer service was good. Our plates never stacked up at the table and our drinks never went empty. The big draw here is the seafood portion of the buffet. I love crab legs but I don't like the work involved to eat it. Unlike other buffets where people pounce the minute the staff put it out, here they keep it well stocked and no ones fighting to get their share. I prefer my crab legs steamed and warm, but here they are served cold. I turned my focus to the huge seafood selection and sushi. They have shrimp and fish in all kinds of different preparations and I gotta say, everything tasted great. They also have a hot pot and hibachi section along with your regular Chinese food buffet offerings. I don't know if it's because I don't frequent Chinese buffets often, but here, I liked everything I tried and thoroughly enjoyed my meal. They also have a nice dessert station and even have slushie station for the kiddos. The best part of it all is the price tag is just a little over 20 bucks. You definitely get your money's worth here. I think there is something for everyone here. It's a shame it's so far from where I live. Buffetopia is definitely the best Chinese buffet in Houston.

    Had family in town and was excited to try this new spot since I've heard all about it. Walked in…read moreand there was a young lady hostess who brought us to our table. We weren't even seated yet and she was already asking what we wanted to drink. I'm thinking uhm can we at least sit down first?? She seemed very impatient. My mom sat down first and pointed out that the table was dirty. She responded back by telling her "it's part of the table ma'am". My mom then pulled out a napkin and wiped it to show her that no...the table was actually dirty. We asked to move to a different table and she grabbed our silverware and flung it on the next table over and again asked for drink orders. We all were very confused at the attitude bc what is wrong with asking to sit at a diff table bc the other one is dirty?? If I was by myself, I honestly would've just left and went somewhere else to eat, but bc I was with family, I didn't want to make it a big deal. As for the food, they did have a lot of options. Everything was flavored nicely, but not everything was hot. I also wasn't a fan of the prepackaged ice cream cups so we went elsewhere for dessert. Some of the bathroom stalls were dirty too. Overall our experience here just okay. The poor customer service alone was enough to make me not want to come back.
