    This buffet is very clean, modern, and well-lit, with plenty of food options to choose from. It's located a bit farther out, but it's worth the drive. The food was fresh and tasted really good.

    Mediocre at best but lots and lots of variety The habachi chicken was good The sushi and rolls were decent, good value Soups, esp the Miso was good The rest was meh Stay away from the kimchi, spare ribs, orange chicken and broccoli chicken. Parking is a chore, you are competing with planet fitness during dinner hours Would I come back, probably, but not my first pick

    Still a solid 4 stars for what it is. We took the extended family here on the second visit. I got my usual, but made a beeline for the pork buns first. They were great as always, and I appreciate this place has them because no other buffet I've been to has them to offer. We sat in the same room as we did last time, and the staff were all attentive. Worth a mention: I didn't get the seafood. I would suggest that this business give customers a way to crack the shells open. I did see several people struggling to get the crab meat out of the shells. My sister-in-law gave up trying to open hers because she couldn't. Customers, take your own cracking supplies. (ETA UPDATE: someone informed me you can ask the servers for crackers for the shells and they'll give them to you...didn't know that but it's great info for those who need them)

    This place was super hyped up on social media, so I had pretty high expectations going in. In the spirit of a buffet, we tried lots of different small plates. I will say the variety was impressive, with a lot to choose from. The kitchen staff did a great job keeping everything stocked; I never saw anything running low or sitting empty. The price was reasonable for a seafood buffet, and there are weekday and kids' deals that help keep it affordable. The service was fine. We mostly saw servers when they came by to refill sodas or clear away finished plates. The place was very busy (we waited about 20-30 minutes just to be seated), so service was understandably a bit slower when it came to refills and clearing dishes. Overall, it's a buffet, solid, not bad...but nothing particularly special either.

    I don't normally rate buffets as 5 stars, but Ocean Buffet is an exception. The staff were very nice and the restaurant was clean. The food was plentiful and everything looked fresh. There were a lot of options. The hibachi area was pristine and the uncooked meats looked properly housed and fresh. You are given a beeper to let you know when your grill items are ready. The sushi looked well prepared. There are so many options of food here to choose from I hope the restaurant stays as well kept as it is now.

    What a great find. Stopped in for lunch and they were so busy. They are in a cramped parking lot with alot of speed bumps. I'm so glad we took the suv otherwise we would've had to forget about going through all of those speed bumps. They are so friendly and efficient getting tables cleaned and ready. The food servers were back and forth getting the food restocked. It was good food and they had some dim sum dishes such as chicken feet and hargow there. So surprising! I'd definitely recommend this spot. We drove 45 minutes to come here. Well worth the drive. Melly was our server and made sure we had everything we needed for a great meal.

    Hi everyone! With all the hype about the, brand new, Ocean Buffet in Crawley I had to come over and give it a try.... I'm not sure where to start with this review. The entrance to the restaurant is very nicely done. It is pretty and inviting. The buffet selection is quite large with a good variety of offerings. It is safe to say, there is something for everyone here. The buffet is clean, the food fresh and nicely presented. There is a nice selection of sushi. Many Chinese dishes. And your typical buffet desert selections. Sadly, the food itself can vary in taste from mediocre to fairly good. Nothing great. The service is basically just keeping your beverage glass full to picking up your dirty plates. In both cases, they were sorely lacking. Definitely needing improvement. So you might wonder why, with basically a mediocre review above, I gave Ocean Buffet four stars. Simple. The price! An "early bird" senior buffet is only $10.95! That price makes up for a lot of shortcomings. Am I coming back? Maybe..... Jim

    Comparing asian buffets in DFW area, this one is one of the best. The sushi options alone are stand out!!! I really enjoyed the sushi here and I usually never eat the sushi at buffets. They also had steamed buns which I don't usually see at buffets. Such a wide variety of options here. Hibachi is offer in the buffet too. Just so many good options. It was pretty crowded on a Sunday at 1pm but we got saf within 5 mins. This location is very spacious, fun interior.

    The place looks fun and interesting the food was good and the service was great! It was a wait but not much.

    Burnt Mongolian we waited 20 minutes for

    This is just an average Chinese buffet. We have been twice since they opened. The first visit the food was decent. Everything was hot and being refilled frequently. The Mongolian grill is set up weird with meats and veggies on one side, grill in the middle, seasonings on the other side of that. There is no sign and no direction on how to use the Mongolian so it is chaotic with people standing on top of each other and nobody being able to communicate with the person that is cooking. The second visit was enough to never go back. All of the food was old and chewy. It was a Sunday night and the place was packed but the food still tasted old. We waited nearly 20 mins for a Mongolian to come out burnt. When we were leaving we went to pay at the counter because our waitress never came back. We were asked if the food was good and we said no. He laughed and I said no I'm serious. He called the manager over who begged us to give him another chance and started singing. I found this odd and a bit annoying, however he did try. He took $4 off a $40 bill and gave us a 10% coupon that expires in a month. It was a nice gesture but at $20 a person, we won't return. Everything seems to be at least wiped down frequently but the music is too loud and happy birthday plays every 5 minutes or so. I wouldn't recommend.

    Lisa our wonderful amazing server, absolutely love her!

    In the area and wanted sushi. Haven't eaten here in a few years and glad we did. Service was good…read moreand attentive. Had the Ahi Tuna Tower, Dynamite and Rainbow Dragon along with soup and salad. All the rolls are very good and of good size. We were stuffed but very pleased when we left. This place has Hibachi too which was excellent last time we had it. Would recommend this place if looking for a good place for sushi.

    I ordered two hibachi fried rice sides from this restaurant online. The description on their…read morewebsite says the rice includes egg ("egg only"), and I also requested extra eggs. When I got home, there were no eggs at all in either order, not even the standard amount that's supposed to come with it. I even took photos, and you can clearly see there are no eggs in the rice. I called the next day to explain the issue. Instead of trying to understand or resolve it, the person I spoke with kept arguing with me and focusing on the extra eggs and saying they couldn't add those because I hadn't paid for them online, which is fine. Some places just adjust the amount but they clearly don't. That's not the main issue though. I clarified multiple times that even without the extra eggs, the dish is still supposed to include egg by default and mine DID NOT. He insisted that the chefs made it with eggs and said he believed them over me, which was frustrating as a customer. I was basically told to bring the rice back from the night before and they would remake it. Overall, very disappointing experience. The food was incorrect, and the customer service made it worse.

    Sigh. I absolutely love korean fried chicken and bonchon is one of our favorite chains... but quite…read morefrankly this location as well as the arlington location are both okay. The wait time is very long, every time we've come to this location and the arlington one. They NEVER have pickled daikon, which is a absolute staple, and sometimes they package togo orders so poorly that everything with collapse in the bag on your way home. With that being said, its still some darn good chicken, japjae, and baos. Just know that the frisco location is the best one.

    Tried this place on a whim, like grabbing that snack at the register you promised yourself you…read moredidn't need, and honestly it was the best impulse decision I've made in a while. The food was excellent. They've got this trio deal (YumDun trio) where you get chicken, a side, and a Korean donut (yes, a donut, because apparently heaven is a place on Earth). There are a few sauces to choose from, I started with the classic which was still flavorful On a separate visit, I tried the Chicken Katsu, which was also a win. The chicken was good, and the sauces had just the right amount of spice. The fries were fresh and just as crispy as the chicken, and even though my order was to-go, it was still piping hot when I got home. Both times I visited, with different staff each time, everyone was polite and ordering was quick and easy. I fully intend to eat my way through the menu like it's a personal mission, so stay tuned for updates on my delicious journey.

    I came here because the Google reviews were pretty good, but unfortunately my experience didn't…read morelive up to the ratings. The prices are reasonable, and I originally wanted to try the sushi, but the restaurant was extremely warm inside, which honestly made me question how fresh the sushi would be. One thing that stood out was the huge variety of Asian cuisines on the menu. While having options is nice, it also made me wonder if they're really able to execute each dish well. I ordered the orange chicken with yakisoba noodles, but when my food arrived, I was served lo mein. The waitress even referred to it as lo mein. When I mentioned that I had ordered yakisoba, she insisted that it was yakisoba. It wasn't. Yakisoba and lo mein are two completely different dishes. To make matters worse, the noodles were cold, dry, and lacked any real flavor. The food also came out incredibly fast--less than ten minutes after ordering. While some people might see that as a positive, it made me feel like my meal wasn't prepared fresh and was likely pre-made or simply reheated. The appetizers were disappointing as well; they were doughy and bland. The orange chicken was actually good, but I didn't come here just for orange chicken. To top it all off, before we had even finished eating, the waitress/host brought us to-go boxes without asking if we were done. It made us feel like we were being rushed out, even though it was just a Sunday afternoon. Overall, I won't be returning. There were a few positives, but the poor food quality, incorrect order, and rushed service outweighed them. I was really hoping for a better experience.
