    Lots of food choices. Decently cooked food. Reasonable priced @ only $20.99. We did not find any fault with it. In fact, we thought it was better than most buffets.

    Recently dine at Minado Buffet in Yakima, and it was an exceptional experience! The moment I walked in, I was surprised by the big buffet area and dinning space. The variety of food available was nothing short of amazing. From the freshest sushi to a delightful array of hot dishes such as having different options of seafood, variety of soups, create your own noodle bar, dim sum, different type of hot cooked noodles, fried rice, lots of protein options, fruit, and lots of dessert including a chocolate fountain. I was honestly surprise to see such a great buffet in Yakima. We went during Memorial Day weekend, so was dinner prices all day of $19.99 per adult which I thought was a great deal for all the food options we got. All the food was delicious, and staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was great. Five stars overall, will come again when I am in Yakima.

    minado is a very average chinese buffet with a lot of options for hot food, cold food, soups, and desserts. as soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly server who showed us to our table. they immediately brought out water for us, and gave us teapots for hot tea as well. we were in a party of 13-14 and they wasted no time in getting our table ready. the restaurant was clean and servers were friendly and helpful. our waiter came to check in on us every 15-20 minutes which was cute. i also noticed that they were very quick to sanitize and clean tables once other guests left. from the sushi options, i heard from a family member that minado used to have a lot more variety. this time that we went, all the sushi options seemed like different variations of imitation crab, cucumber, and avocado. i didn't really see any other kinds of raw fish which was a bit of a let down. it seemed like they released more options as we were eating though, as there were also some cute hand rolls they brought out near the end of our meal. the noodles here are actually really good... like i usually don't get carbs at these kinds of buffets (gotta get my money worth!!!) but i went back for seconds LOL better than panda express noodles! there was a good variety of other hot foods like shrimp, clams, vegetables, and more.

    I vacillate between two and three stars. Since I'm feeling generous, I'll up the score…read more My first impression was "nobody who works here is Asian." With lowered expectations, our meal was actually better than we anticipated. I asked to start with a bowl of wonton soup for me and my husband. Our dunce-like waitress should have told us that one large (at $7.50) is enough for almost four portions, vs. two smalls (at $4.95 each.) The soup was quite good -- plump, well-filled dumplings, tasty broth, slivers of pork. Great! Veggie egg rolls -- 5 to an order -- are small, almost tasteless fried spring rolls. The house special chow mein could use more vegetables, but there was a generous supply of chicken, barbecued pork (which looked good but lacked flavor) and shrimp. A comment about the staff: the fellow who mans the register is pleasant and helpful. The woman who runs the place (owner? manager?) could use a course in courtesy and diplomacy. And I already mentioned our insipid waitress. One last thing: hot tea tastes like Lipton. Don't bother.

    Only giving it one star because it would not let me give it 0. The food was absolutely horrific…read moretasting I can't even explain it. I was very excited to try it because the pictures online looked good. The food presentation itself was decent, but the taste & quality was something out of a horror movie or something. Service was fine. Dishes, and silverware were also oddly extremely DIRTY and had weird built up residue on them. Pork tasted like wet dog or soggy towels. YUCK.
