    Came here for my dad's birthday yesterday. They have a great selection of sushi and other dishes you don't see in other buffets. The place is kept clean and the food was yummy. The service was also great and our waitress was attentive and helpful. I also like how the ice cream was in individual containers. Definitely a place to try if you're looking for a buffet or just great food in general.

    Well finally a hit for this Pompano Beach corner! Madness Buffet is a great addition to the community and should do quite well here serving Palm Aire, Cypress Bend , The Pomp, and local workers in the community. The food is very fresh and very delicious! I served myself mainly from the Sushi buffet. The hot dishes from the other buffet sections were tempting. My wife always kids me for asking if there is Banana pudding for dessert, no matter what restaurant or cuisine... Well they do have a dessert buffet and they have BANANA PUDDING! ... and it is a very good Banana pudding at that!

    Located in Pompano right between 95 and the turnpike and across the street from Harrah's The Pomp casino, this fairly new sushi, Chinese, and hibachi buffet is a great new addition to the buffet space in Broward. Adult prices range from $15.99 - $22.99 depending on lunch, dinner, or weekend. Seniors and kids 3-10 are discounted. Staff if welcoming and around to clean plates, fill drinks, clean and refresh the buffet. We came on a weekend and there was a decent flow of customers but we never saw a wait or did it get super crowded. The busiest spot at one point was the hibachi pick up drop off area. For the price you get a good variety of warm dishes and the sushi was fresh. They didn't have any seaweed salad which I always look forward to on a sushi buffet. They have shrimp cocktail and raw oysters but they did not have crab legs. Hibachi had a wide selection of items to include, some I haven't seen before on a hibachi line. Desserts were pretty standard for a buffet but the did have lychees so that is always a plus in my book. Not sure what the difference is between lunch and dinner as far as the food offered goes but it's very hard to go out nowadays and get a good quality meal for either of those prices, let alone all you can eat. I'll definitely be back to try either lunch or a weekday dinner to see if there is difference.

    I come from a family of all-you-can-eat buffet lovers, so it was basically a given that we had to check out Madness Buffet on Powerline Road near Atlantic Ave. It's located in the old Ruby Tuesday's spot (which I think was also a seafood boil place at one point). We went on a weekday for lunch, which is a great deal at $15.99 (dinner is $22.99). Right when I walked in, I was impressed--the restaurant is bright, clean, and very well-kept. The walls have fun graphics, but the real focus here is definitely the food. We were quickly seated at a comfortable table, and then it was time to dig in. We started with the sushi, which had a surprisingly large selection: spicy tuna, salmon, kani, Philadelphia rolls, veggie rolls, and a few specialty options like the Florida, Madness, and Love rolls. I also tried some of the cold items, including Caesar salad, cucumber salad, a really tasty apple slaw, and fresh peel-and-eat shrimp. For hot foods, there's a solid variety--hibachi, fried favorites, and a mix of chicken, seafood, and other dishes. Standouts for us included the dumplings, green beans, seafood boil, crab Rangoon, and little neck clams. They also offer a selection of soups if you're in the mood for something lighter. Dessert had plenty of options too: fresh fruit, Jell-O, pudding, small cake slices, palmiers, and ice cream. One thing I really appreciated was that the ice cream comes in individual pre-packaged cups--much more hygienic than the typical buffet setup. I tried the fudge and strawberry ripple, and both were delicious. They also offer vanilla and even cotton candy. Throughout the meal, the staff was attentive without being overbearing. They regularly cleared plates, refilled drinks, and checked in on us. The level of service really stood out. Overall, I thought the quality and variety of food were excellent for the price. Even the restroom was spotless, which says a lot about how well they maintain the place. You can tell they're on top of everything. We left completely stuffed--and officially fans of Madness Buffet.

    This new buffet place was great... for $15.99 lunch ($14.99 if you are senior over 65) you get a large variety of sushi, soups, hibachi, raw bar, hot food, fried food, desserts and more. I thought the quality of the food was really good compared to other similar buffet establishments in the area. And the price is very attractive. The staff was very nice. All the stations were very cleaned and food was replenished often. My favorite dishes were the steamed tilapia, the chicken teriyaki, the egg drop soup, the sushi (over 20+ types), the little neck clams, the chicken on a stick, the hibachi and the seafood boil. Overall a great meal for little money.

    Located across from the Harrah's Casino is the newly opened Madness Buffet. It is an all-you-can eat restaurant offering a wide variety of American-Chinese cuisine, a hibachi station, freshly made sushi rolls, meats & seafood, and yummy desserts all at a moderate price. There is also a to-go option priced by the pound. I stopped by for lunch. After I greeted the hostess, got seated quickly, and gave my drink order, I walked around the various stations to see what was being offered. The various food items were neatly displayed and labeled for identification. I made sure to take small portions so I would not get overly full too quickly. The atmosphere was casual, featuring a large brightly-lit dining area suitable for groups. The employees were hardworking. They made sure to replenish the displayed food items when necessary. The support staff came around in a timely manner to remove the empty plates, refill your beverage, and to make sure the tables are cleaned for the next guests. I was stuffed after three plates. For $20, I was able to eat to my stomach's capacity, which was not bad at all. I thoroughly enjoyed my first dining experience at Madness Buffet and hope it won't be my last.

    This place was fantastic. Table service was quick and friendly. The restaurant looks brand new and everything was spotless. So many delicious options to choose from at the buffet. The quality of the sushi was good. The hot food options were terrific. I wish I could have put this place in my pocket and brought it home with me. We went for lunch and it was not very crowded.

    Let me start by saying this: I am not usually a fan of Chinese buffets... but Madness Buffet completely changed my mind--and then some. This place offers all the classic Chinese buffet favorites and levels it up with a fresh sushi bar and on-the-spot hibachi cooked right in front of you. Yes, please. From traditional staples like General Tso's chicken and Moo Goo Gai Pan to shrimp boils, seafood galore, and endless options, the variety here is honestly impressive. Everything was fresh, well stocked, and beautifully laid out. Even better? The restaurant is clean, bright, and welcoming--something that really matters with buffets. The staff deserves a shoutout too: friendly, attentive, and constantly checking in to make sure everything is perfect. One of my favorite things is that if you're short on time, you can always make a to-go box and bring the goodness home. Convenient and delicious. I walked in skeptical and walked out a believer. I'd absolutely go back again and again--without hesitation. Oh, and don't leave without ordering the sweet tea. Trust me on that one. If you're craving variety, freshness, and solid service all in one place, Madness Buffet delivers on every level.

    After months of waiting, Madness Buffet has finally opened! I am so happy that it did! From the moment you walked in, the staff was welcoming and the buffet was clean and bright! After being seated, I made my way around the buffet to see what I wanted to eat. Have targeting everything I wanted, I went straight to the sushi bar. The sushi chefs were nice enough to explain to me what was in some of the rolls in their specialty area. I then went over to the Chinese buffets followed by The hibachi. Everything tasted fresh with delicious aftertastes. I took my time so it's not to get filled too quickly. I can honestly say that I enjoyed every single bite! The prices are the best I've seen and I'll be back for sure!

    After a drive from central Orlando, we arrived at Wyndham, hungry and tired. As I looked out the hotel balcony, this place caught my eye. Hardly a five minute walk, and the smell of fresh fruit and flawlessly cooked steak wafted to us. The restaurant was clean and everything was being made fresh as we walked in, with a beautiful atmosphere. Greeted and seated immediately, and the hostess was so kind. First round, I absolutely demolished two plates of sushi and nigiri, all made by Kai, who is so sweet! Delicious and high quality fish, with excellent rolls. My favorite was their Volcano roll. Next up, PAN SEARED DUMPLINGS. Need I say more? Absolutely delectable, along with their Wonton Soup. Also, fresh, made to order Hibachi. I unfortunately did not get to eat any of it, having absolutely decimated sushi ahead of time, however, my family informed me it was delicious. The dessert was also so genuinely good. Cindy was one of our servers, and she was so sweet, absolutely made the experience for me and my family. 10/10, absolutely necessity to come here if you are in Pompano Beach and looking for a family friendly, exquisite dining! PS: Very important for restaurants- the bathrooms here were SPOTLESS, and that's how you can tell they keep the kitchens clean!

Our friends from Miami trek all the way north just to come here to fulfill their Korean cravings, and we proudly and gladly join. If you come with a big group, call ahead! My usual in the beginning was the seafood soft tofu soup, but since have added to our rotation: rose tteokboki (a must share), yaki spicy stir-fried ramen (basically if you want the yummy spicy rose sauce but sub the tteokboki with ramen noodles), Japanese curry cutlet (katsu), Korean fried chicken, bulgogi fried rice, pork belly, and galbi. We've tried a few others on the menu, but these are what we highly recommend to our friends. Even our little ones love it here! When we order drinks, they all have been good and they definitely don't skimp on the alcohol in their cocktails. My husband prefers drinking beer and usually will go for the Tsingtao or Sapporo. Don't ask us about the dessert though because by the end of our meal, we're usually stuffed! Overall, if we have any cravings for Korean food and don't want the kbbq experience, you can definitely find us here!

The bao buns- the buns themselves were soft and fluffy, duck tender and came apart very nicely. Rolls were great, sashimi tasted fresh, the lamb chops were cooked very well. Lobster udon- noodles were nice and chewy. Shared a shaved ice dessert- I forgot what it was called but it had frozen shaved milk and some strawberry mochi in the middle. Whatever it was, it was amazing. Service was good. Really the only downside was the obnoxiously loud group sitting next to us. They also threw crap that landed on our sashimi bowl. Can't control everything I guess. Outside of that however, fantastic experience.

Other families with young children were there too, yet the restaurant still maintains a chic, upscale vibe.

It was charred really nicely and moist at the same time. Even my wife who doesn't like seafood said she liked it! Eye of the Tiger Roll (4.5): Huge cut of high quality tuna. If you like tuna, this is a must try. Picanha à la Parilla (3): It was good but not great. Really just a standard cut. Not too special IMO. Pad Thai w Beef (2.5): This was overly sweet. Generally the kids gravitate towards sweet things, but this was a little too much. I was the only one eating this one. Kung fu Lo mein with shrimp (4): Great noodle dish! Good flavor. Shrimp went well with this one. The service was a little odd. The bartender and the waiter both sort of tag teamed our table so there wasn't much consistency. Even their recommendations contradicted each other. The menu labels of favorite and specialty was a little confusing too. Like, what are you trying to communicate here? Your specialties are not favorites? Overall, some hits and misses. Definitely a decent spot to check out. I'd say a 3.5 joint.

The only downsides are the long wait times (the place is small and so popular, so you can only imagine) and a couple times when we ordered mango sticky rice, either they ran out of ice cream or mangos.
