Taste: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value for money: 5/5 We had: 1) Sashimi - eel, salmon, white fish, tuna (lean), red clam 2) Abalone (real one) in soup - hidden gem dish 3) Tomato based hotpot 4) Mango Pomelo - these types of drinks don't normally get served alongside! They also have the classic pizza and other American items too. All in all it was good. They also allow for service animal.

Hot pot, sushi, tons of Korean-, Chinese-, and Japanese-inspired dishes, salads, ultra seafood, bubble tea and dessert are all included! It's all you can eat, and there are no doggie bags or to-go boxes, so only go when you are hungry. It's a buffet, and the friendly wait staff keeps the place immaculately clean, which is so important at a buffet. It's a great way to try many things, including expanding my sushi palate and being introduced to hot pot. It's not just food, it's a fun experience that made for a fun evening!

I haven't been to a buffet in sooo long so I was very excited going into this…read more First off, I was a little disappointed because it seemed like everyone had the same idea so the parking was full. But it was okay because we found street parking a little bit of a walk away and was able to still enjoy ourselves. My fiancé and I grabbed a bunch of food from their big variety and both left stuffed. Overall, I can't say it's the best quality of foods however, the selection was huge and for the price, this was actually very good! The service was great. They started us off with drinks as soon as we sat down and would ask us if we needed refills on these drinks whenever they were running low. Even though there was a lot of people, because the space itself is also big, it did not feel like we were overcrowded so that was also a plus!

Went here today for lunch…read more Nice establishment overall. They have a free parking lot, and the entrance is inside the hotel, you take the elevator upstairs to the buffet. However, when we arrived, nobody was at the front counter, so we walked to the inside counter to ask to be seated. The front desk guy clearly just came in for his shift since he was hurrying on his cell phone, carrying bags and had his jacket on. He came over looking very busy and disheveled, and when my mom politely asked if we should wait here to be seated, he rudely responded, "Well if there's no one at that counter then you come to this counter if you see the sign." Meanwhile... there was no sign saying that when we left. My mom was just asking a simple question, so the attitude was unnecessary. Just because you're stressed or running late doesn't mean you take it out on customers. F him for being rude to my nice mom and never coming to this place again. As for the food, it was pretty mediocre overall, that experience left a bad taste. The sushi selection had a good variety, and the desserts were honestly the best part. They have a chocolate fondue station plus vanilla, matcha, and swirl soft serve ice cream machines. At least the place was clean. Also, the waitress gives you a parking discount before you leave, so don't forget to ask.

After going to the Umi in Jersey, I wanted to try out their other locations too! So this time we…read morewent to the one in the Bronx. There were a lot of similar dishes. I did see some items that were available in the Jersey location but not in the Bronx and vice versa. I think both locations are have its own perks. (I think I enjoyed the food variety in the Jersey location more but prefer the desserts and drinks at the Bronx location) One thing I think this location does better is being more eco friendly by not using one time use plastic plates. I didn't get to try the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall last time. So I decided to give it a try this time. And the the stock was really flavorful. I was surprised to see abalone and spare ribs inside. (I always assumed it was a veggie dish lol) Overall, I am very pleased I got to try out the 2 different locations.

When I asked if she wanted to go to a buffet, she was all in! She had an amazing time definitely in her own little La La Land getting to fill her plate with whatever she wanted (and go back for more). The food was good and fresh, and even though it was busy, it didn't feel overwhelming. The service was excellent. We actually had two servers, both super attentive, and the entire staff came over to sing happy birthday to my daughter. They even brought her a slice of cake, which she happily topped with way too much ice cream but hey, it was her day! The overall atmosphere was great very family friendly and full of good energy. We even ended up chatting with a few other tables, most of whom were also celebrating birthdays. All in all, we had a great time. Golden Corral is definitely a fun, welcoming place for families and celebrations.

Came for their mad September all day promo of $26.99, came around 6pm and it looked like dinner…read morejust started Upon arrival I got seated right away, didn't look too busy, but later in the night the seating filled up real quick. There is nice music playing but low enough for conversations to be had. The staff was quick in clearing the table of finished plates and quite attentive. Now the food, 70% of the food was good, tender meats, sushi was decently fresh. The other 30% was unappetizing, the dimsum was sad looking and lacking variety, oyster grilling station took forever to cook, the crabs were lacklustered and didn't taste fresh. Also I'm guessing because of the promotion, a lot of items left off the menu (no snow crab legs, or abalone to name a few) Overall for the promotional price, definitely worth coming to try, better than most buffets in the city and the positives outweigh the negatives and you will definitely leave full.

I've been here enough times to be able to give a solid review. The consistency in the taste of the…read morefood is consistent. Always delicious, & they replenish the trays fast, as needed. The food options are extensive. I've never gotten ill from eating in this place. The seafood is the star of the show! The seasoning is top notch! Instead of going to a seafood place to spend hundreds you can spend the entry and get all the seafood you want unless you want lobster lol it's worth the price The service is friendly and attentive, I don't have to chase after a waiter to refill my drink or remove my plates. They always come around to check on you. I recommend you bring cash if you want to tip, the bill is paid in the front before entering. They should consider cleaning the bathroom ever so often during service hours, because it can get pretty gross and I avoid it all cost. The reason for the 3 stars is because of the area this place is located in and the people that come here. I try to avoid coming here too late where it's more prone to getting more people. There has never been an issue or conflict before (surprisingly) until my last visit where females started arguing. It was brief and did not escalate but still a ghetto mess and I was not surprised. The difference is that this time I was seated in the middle where the area is more crowded towards the entrance. Usually I get seated towards the hibachi station and there has never been an issue there, and it isn't as crowded. I'll stick to that side next time. Also, I'm a sushi lover but I'm not a fan of their sushi. I don't like cold rice or cold sushi.. it makes sense why they have it plated on all cooler setting but it doesn't taste too good to me. There is a movie theater downstairs, so you can eat and go to the movies if you're in the mood

I'll def give the freehold location a shot, as it's much closer to where I live. I enjoyed the options I had sampled from ramen, sushi to salt and pepper shrimp, dessert and boba!

This place ROCKS! I'm already planning my next trip back. Went on a weekday for dinner with four…read morefriends, and had no trouble snagging a same-day reservation (there was also plenty of open seating around us). The interior is spacious, with plenty of seating, and clean. Everyone gets their own personal hot pot -- only downside of this is you can't split your broth between a spicy broth AND a bone broth (as is my wont), so I ordered a bone broth and my partner ordered a spicy broth and we switched halfway through. The menu is huge: about half the items on the AYCE menu (mainly cuts of red meat), you have to order from the waiter, and the other half (incl. veggies, noodles, fish and beef balls, tofu, etc.) you can help yourself to in a stocked fridge area. This is the stuff of AYCE dreams. We got all sorts of fish, so much meat (beef, pork belly, lamb, you name it), giant shrimp heads, frog legs, seaweed, bamboo, lotus root, all kinds of veggies, etc. etc. etc. We also loaded up on sweet potato noodles, fish tofu, actual tofu, fish balls, beef balls, fish balls stuffed WITH beef, delicious tiny fried mantou that you dip in condensed milk... they even had ciba cake, which is a fave and kind of a rare find! It was a joyous, dizzying experience, and that's before you even get to the dessert bar (full of tiny cakes, cannolis, various puddings of all flavors!). Service is very attentive -- the waiters refilled our broths often. I can't say much else except that this is probably my new go-to hot pot place. Everything was delicious and fresh, and for ~$50/person, it's hard to find better value elsewhere.

AYCE Level: Expert. Regret Level: Zero. ​Just rolled out of…read moreEasy Joy Dim Sum & AYCE Hot Pot in Little Italy, and let's just say the "All You Can Eat" part was taken as a personal challenge. If you're looking to feast like a king without the royal price tag, this is the spot. ​The Breakdown: ​The Broth Game: I went with the GuangDong Fish Maw Chicken. We're talking Emperor Chicken, red dates, and goji berries. This isn't just soup; it's a soul-warming masterpiece. Best part? When they refill it, they use the actual broth, not just plain water. The flavor stays 100% until the very last dip. ​The Heavy Hitters: For the meat lovers, the New Zealand baby lamb and beef tongue are top-tier. But if you're here for the real deal, they've got the delicacies: Duck feet, frog legs, beef omasum, and yes--pig brains. If you know, you know. ​The "Secret" Strategy: You can order fresh Dim Sum at a fraction of the cost if you're doing hot pot. Pro tip: Snag those warm pineapple pork buns the second you see them. They go fast for a reason. ​The Vibes: Surprisingly spacious seating (no elbowing your neighbor for the last shrimp ball) and a massive fridge full of veggies and unlimited soft drinks. ​The Finish Line: They've got everything from mango pudding to... cannolis. Because it's Little Italy, and why wouldn't you want a cannoli after a hot pot marathon? ​The Intel: Price: Around $51--insane value for the quality. Discounts: Senior and Military/Veteran discounts available. ‍ Service: Our waiter was a legend, constantly checking in to make sure the table was stocked. Warning: It gets packed. Call for a reservation unless you enjoy staring at other people eating through the window. ​Overall, 10/10. My belt is screaming, but my heart is full. Can't wait to go back and do it all over again.
