Incredible value of a variety of clean shrimp and red snapper fillets. Their sushi is outstanding considering it's a buffet because they actually know how to do the rice. Their sushi is actually quite good, I've had worse at actual sushi restaurants. At least with this place the dinner buffet is only $19.95 so you have very little investment and if you can't find something good to eat there, that is your own fault. read more

Went for the lunch buffet. Sushi had flavor. Other fish options were lacking flavor.. No crab option for lunch. Standard flavor for General's taos chicken, noodles, rice, hot sour soup, and other offerings. So that day's experience for the fish offering was disappointing. In comparison, either the Great Wall or China Buffet is a better option for lunch. read more

While the folks running this place seemed perfectly pleasant, the food--particularly the lack of freshness and lukewarm temperature of "hot" dishes--left much to be desired. My daughter and I recently stopped in for a weekend lunch and were cheerfully greeted and promptly seated. The selection of hot, cold and sushi was subpar. No miso soup, no seaweed salad, no salmon or tuna nigiri -- just a half dozen variations of California Roll and some skimpy pieces of yellowtail and other routine offerings. I tried some stir fried green beans, shrimp, and spring rolls, but they were all room temperature at best--weird since I saw a lot of steam generally coming up from under the serving trays. In short, there wasn't a lot to get excited about here and what I did put on my plate just wasn't great. It's not the worst buffet out there, but I won't be back anytime soon. (2.5 stars). read more

I should have trusted my fellow Yelpers on this one and skipped it. The food was hard like it had been out too long, tasted funky, and just not good. The staff was friendly- until my 8 year old niece threw up literally all over their entry way after eating. We apologized profusely and offered to clean it up. They just threw rags over it and went on to welcome others into the establishment. We won't be back. Both from embarrassment and well the fact it was gross read more

Cheap and a great place for a big family to go out on a family buffet dinner. Good tasting food if you are into Asian foods .

Excellent execution of product preparation, this Buffet was above expectations, it's well deserved higher rating than most other generic All-can-Eat . read more

Good selection of food options at great prices. Typical buffet food but decent quality. Would return.

FOOD ARE COLD! Not a lot of selection. Food quality is horrible, definitely not worth the price. We paid $75 for 3 adults, 8yr child and 4 drinks. Again, not worth it. Don't waste your time, you could potentially get sick due to the food temp not within regulations read more

I would not return to this restaurant because the food, in my opinion, was low quality. Most of it was overcooked and just not appealing or tasty. There was a group of us, so they automatically added gratuity for bringing us water/drinks and the check....It's a buffet where you serve yourself. Yes we were seated in a separate room which was nice. They do have a big variety of Asian inspired foods including a sushi bar, salad bar and a dessert bar which were all just --ok. I didn't try the stir fry, which is custom cooked with your choice of meat and veggies so maybe that would have been good, but I'll never know. read more

Constantly adding fresh food to the buffet, lots of cooked choices, hibachi- style is a create your own fresh and hot but they cook it for you, sushi, fresh fruit and salad makings. Clean and bright. Lots of parking. I honestly don't know why this place is not swamped all day. Very good for us though, not waiting lines. Great food. read more

It's your typical buffet situation. You walk in they seat you, get your drink orders and you are then welcome to explore the buffet along the back wall. The selection is top notch in my opinion. Great seafood options, loved the coconut shrimp and peanut chicken. The fried rice felt cooked with frozen veggies, not "fried". The hosts are pleasant and friendly. read more

Came in here for dinner. The place was clean the issue here is the food it's lukewarm very dangerously warm temperature I hope I don't get sick. I wrote it on the ticket the lady just looked at it and said nothing. She couldn't care less. The sushi was hard and chewy. Never again. read more

Don't no why Miyoko is underrated. We've dined several times and found the quality and variety of seafood very appealing. Especially worthwhile is the seafood grill....(you choose from a variety of seafood, veggies and meats and they are grilled as you watch. We always look forward to our next visit. read more

Food was either dry, old, or stale. There was a fly roaming around the salad bar (ew) no sushi refills the whole time I was there, and it wasn't even busy at the time. Hate this place, never coming back read more

Have eaten here many times since they opened. Food is pretty consistent and good. I especially like the sushi bar and can fill up on that alone. Peanut butter chicken is always good too. For lunch they always have shrimp several ways. At times the steam tables seem king of kool, they need to monitor it closer. We do get the senior discount which we appreciate read more

Not really many options to start off with. The food lacked flavor & the menu was small. Had someone watching over us as we ate keeping tabs. By the time we needed to pay. Instead of explaining to us that a 12year old was considered an adult the receptionist lady went off like literally yelling saying that 1 adult hasn't been paid for & said "SO WHAT NO ONE GONNA PAY FOR ONE" like sit TF down & chill lady. She went off like a chihuahua. She definitely has some issues. Really bad customer service. She looked like the evil lady from Cobra Kai & he ego definitely matches it as well. Never coming back here again. It was also really pricey. DON'T COME EAT HERE! SO NOT WORTH IT! ZERO STARS BUT IT WONT LET ME LEAVE ZERO! read more

I was a single patron and they have a rule that you can not have the buffet unless there are two people in your group. The food I ended up eating was not that great. I was highly disappointed read more

Good food but slightly limited choices. The bathrooms were pretty nice, just a little dark. Overall a good buffet!

We had a roach crawl across our table while eating and my wife found a horsefly that are mixed and fried with the general tso sauce and batter.. place is disgusting read more

Miyoko Buffet - Uncovered this horsefly deep fried in tempura batter - Buffets Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I eat here for lunch 2-3 times a month. Usually by myself and always have the buffet. Good food & service. Really like the variety of seafood and chicken. Definitely a favorite on my list. Also, the new layout is clean and spacious compared to previous tenants. read more

Food is decent but place isn't that nice for atmosphere....We like it cleaner...but most people that eat out don't seem to care as much as I do about cleanliness. read more

Don't have pictures but all these Chinese buffets are pretty much the same on their scheme of things. If you don't pay attention to your bill and how they are charging you for your minors ( under 13) as adult fee meals , there is a very big differences in adults prices and children prices . Pay close attention to that . read more

Buffets are a hard one to rate. Generally speaking, they cater to the least common denominator of food. With that in mind, our experience was good. The buffet had a variety of sushi, seafood, and other entrees so selection was good. Flavor wise, most of it was good but uninspiring. Nothing really stood out as great, and given the distance we drove to get there, I'm not convinced it was worth the trip. My rating is high because i compare it to other similar buffets. Overall my rating would likely be a point or two lower. read more

May 10, updating my mid-March review .. Been there three more times, excellent every time. Always plenty of sushi :-). Usually need a nap after eating too much... The only downside to this restaurant - if you consider it a downside, and I don't - is it's not Really Huge. Yes, it's amply large, but you won't get lost inside. Yes, they serve the classics, probably 10-12 entrees, but they don't have the vast variety of the bigger Vegas buffets. So if you're determined to eat sweet and sour prawns, twice-cooked pork or black bean scallops you're probably out of luck But at these prices I can live with that. And for the whiner who gave one star just because the Mongolian grill wasn't spicy enough: there are several grocery stores nearby. Buy and carry in your own bottle of chili ie fire oil, drink it while you eat, light yourself up. read more

I was really looking forward to trying Miyoko Buffet, the new Chinese buffet / Mongolian grill in Salem. What drew me in was the Mongolian grill aspect, but what a huge disappointment. Although I told the chef at the grill that I wanted my food spicy, it came out incredibly bland. Incredibly bland. Unfortunately, the only flavoring available to the chef was sriracha sauce. After tasting my dish I had to add more sriracha sauce, which is also available at each table, along with soy sauce. Still, I couldn't get my food to taste at all flavorful, so I left 80% of it uneaten, and went to the buffet instead. I tried a little of most items - some were okay, but again, not a whole lot of flavor, for the most part. My advice for Miyoko Buffet - have a variety of different flavor sauces available for the Mongolian grill. If a customer's only choice is what level of sriracha sauce to include with their dish, most will come away disappointed. I use sriracha at home, but a component of a sauce - I would never use pure sriracha to flavor a dish, but that's your only option at Miyoko Buffet. Also, instead of offering large pieces of thinly sliced chicken, beef and pork, why not dice your meats into bite-sized pieces instead. No one wants to stuff a giant slice of meat into their mouth (knives are available, but you have to get one yourself). Needless to say, I don't plan on returning to Miyoko Buffet. read more

The food selection was good for a buffet style restaurant. Everything seemed fresh and hot.

Let me start with saying the food was delicious and most of it seemed fresh. They had a great variety of options to choose from. However, I have a sensitive stomach and if you do too, this may not be the place for you. That being said, as far as I know everybody who went with me thought it was wonderful and had no stomach issues unlike myself. read more

My husband and I love this place! Great sushi! There's a pretty great selection of seafood, chicken, appetizers, desserts, fruits, etc. There's always been plenty and it's always been hot when we've been there. We especially love the peanut butter chicken, spicy chicken with peppers and spring rolls They also have some really nice staff! The only thing I would change are some one way signs or something to help with the direction of the line for the folks that can't self-navigate a buffet line read more

It was good for having a variety of dishes. I do wish prizes were less for buffets but the service and everything was good.:)

Sorry but the food wasn't very fresh and whst they did have was always running out. They need to reorganize their menu!

Better than average but Salad bar is weak. The sushi is great, several good dishes but nothing new or different from the norm. Place is clean and doesn't smell when you walk in. Friendly staff. read more

The sushi was so good and you can get raw food and let them cook it for you. It was so darn good I would totally recommend it.

4 stars for different reasons. Miyoko is a good addition to the neighborhood. My family and I have been long term lovers of the Great Wall, across town. I love their seaweed salad with my sushi. My wife can spend her whole plate on the fish and spinach. Miyoko is much like many of the other Chinese buffets around. It's a little pricey, bit in the $$$ range. They are open 7 days a week from 11:00am until closing. Open space with good distance between seating. I see them as three restaurants in one. Chinese buffet first. I loved the buttered mushrooms and sesame balls. Some of the chicken was dry and a little under spiced for my taste. The grill work was lacking. I tried the squid grilled with bean sprouts and green onions. The mix returned was oily and over salted. To bad because this is the first place I found with squid on the grill works. Saving the best for last. Sushi bar was worth the price of the whole meal. I had spicy tuna, California roll, Seaweed, and a Rainbow roll. It was made as fast is they could put it out. Stars to the sushi chef. Big stars for their sushi. I will be coming back again for the all you can eat sushi lunch under $20. As a business model, I would increase the sushi role and kill off the grill. While writing this review, I changed from 4 to 5 stars. I liked the sushi that much and paid that little. When was the last time you had a sushi date where the bill was under $50 for two? Now think about the "All you can eat" add on. Impressive. One last thing. Take out. You can order and take home. read more

Nice variety, lots of sushi. All of the dishes I tried seriously lacked in flavor! I did not try the Hibachi or dessert. They had 3 soups, egg drop, hot and sour and another with lots of greens. I tried the hot and sour it was not hot or sour. I looked all over for some vinegar to add to make it sour. None was to be found. I am a senior but forgot to mention that to the server before she placed the check on the table (right as we were about to start eating), so I did not get the senior discount. Beware soda is an additional $2.50. read more

Billed as a Japanese Buffet, we couldn't really differentiate its offerings from most Chinese buffets. It does have a sushi selection on one side, but that that is also true of many Chinese buffets these days. The food was of acceptable quality, but nothing that would draw us back after the two visits we made there. The one exceptional dish offered, in our opinion, was the peanut butter chicken. read more

I hate to disparage a business, but this is the worst buffet I've ever been to. Not a very good selection. The food is bad. The only thing I recommend is the sushi, which was okay. But I got there at 8 with 2 hours left till close and they never replenished the sushi, so I only got a few pieces. There are much better places in Salem than this. read more

The hot food was a little bland, spicy chicken wasn't very spicy. The sushi and crab was amazing. Good selection of desserts. Staff were friendly and attentive. read more

Great Japanese and Chinese buffet for the price. Restaurant and serving areas were clean. Large variety of sushi and Chinese food including salad, dessert bar and ice cream freezer. Servers were attentive and water glasses kept full. It's nice to have buffets available again after the Covid closures. I'll be back. Lunch buffet a bargain at $12.99...$11.99 for seniors over 60 years old. read more

I'm not a buffet person, at all, but this place is utterly extraordinary. Their weekend buffet has exceptional amounts of seafood and fish to choose from. Several shrimp options, several fish options, crab legs, crawfish, beautiful nigiri and sushi rolls. The food is fresh and shockingly fabulous. Service is also unbelievable. You won't find a better bargain. read more
