Excellent sushi, Great buffet restaurant! Just one thing happened to me. I paid with my credit card, then there were two more fraud charges in the next few days. Please make sure your staff are not taking advantage of your customer's credit card. Thank you read more

This is our third time At Ocean Buffet and every time it's been wonderful. The variety of food is amazing and everything looks and tastes very fresh. The wait was a bit long the first two times but both were Saturday evening. Last evening's visit (Wednesday) was no wait at all. The selections were bountiful as on weekends. The place is kept very clean and the staff is friendly and quick. read more

I came in during my lunch time and was pretty impressed. The restaurant, inside and outside, is very cute, clean and spacious. There's many tables and lots of servers. I was greeted and taken to my table and my server was waiting and took my drink order. I went to get some food, and they have so many options. There's the hibachi area where you choose your ingredients and they cook them for you. My time was limited so I did not try it but everything looked good. My first plate was full of seafood and it did not disappoint. I also got this cooked vegetables, sorry forgot the name of them, that were delicious. My second plate, I had more seafood, chicken skewers and sushi. The chicken skewers were good, the sushi was ok. Service was great. Overall I had a great first experience at Ocean Buffet. read more

This is a good buffet. Lots of options, especially if you enjoy seafood. Crab legs, chicken, sushi, and hibachi options. The service was good, our waitress was very pushy for us to leave when we were done, which I didn't appreciate. But the food is fresh and good. We came on Friday night at 630. There was no wait. We will definitely be back again. read more

2.75 stars. I cannot recommend this restaurant for dinner. We were here Monday night for dinner but our high expectations turn down hill. The restaurant is well decorated. High ceiling with good welcome courtyard. We did not see gingerbread lobster but that did not turn us down. The blue crab is big but the meat is powdery. What find the best is bull frog leg. The baby clam just below average. Sushi is very weak on selection. I have been many buffet sushi but here not up to the standard. The stone crab meat is shred easily. Dim sum also weak. Soup is just ok. Now come to very basic. The stir fry noodles not meet the requirements bouncy and tasty. Even the string bean with garlic stir fry is not good either. My wife likes the snow crab. I don't know they have the off day today. But I doubt it. The hibachi choice also weak. May be I have too many good buffet. read more

Ok so I finally had a chance to try out the newest addition to the Chinese buffet scene right here in Orlando... and let me just say... I was pleasantly surprised. So after months of seeing this new spot all over social media with all types of mixed reviews... I decided to give it a try for dinner this week. This restaurant is located in the same plaza as the Fashion Square Mall with access to plenty of parking. Upon entering, I was taken back by how huge their waiting patio is... and the inside seating/buffet area was super spacious and very clean! I was fortunate enough to get seated immediately. There was a big variety of fresh seafood, sushi, Chinese, and dim sum options. They even had a build your own hibachi station with chefs available to cook your items right in front of you. I would have to say the standout items for me were definitely the seafood...it was all super fresh and was replenished fairly quickly. Now for the important question... was the buffet worth the price?... so for dinner I paid 34.99 before taxes and tip (lunch prices are a bit cheaper)... I would say that it is worth it...ONLY IF... you indulge in the higher priced item on the buffet line like the seafood, sushi, and steak... If you are primarily there for just Chinese food then I would recommend coming during lunch prices. Shout out to all the servers who were all hustling to tend to their tables, with grabbing refills and clearing plates. You all are rockstars! read more

As far as Buffetts go this one is solid. The seating area is massive. They have 3 sushi chefs. They have multiple hibachi chefs. Cold and hot seafood. 5 soups to choose from clam chowder to miso to egg drop and wonton. Come hungry is all I can say. I was pleasantly surprised by the sushi quality and the chicken and broccoli. read more

Have you ever gone to a restaurant , or in this case, a buffet and craved it so much you couldn't wait to go back? That's exactly what happened with us at Ocean Buffet. After our first visit last week, we were already planning the next one. With Presidents Day giving us the perfect excuse, we brought family and friends along so they could experience it too and it absolutely did not disappoint. This visit was just as delicious as the first. With such a wide variety of options, I headed straight for the sushi bar and paired it with some ribs and wow. Everything was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The sushi was perfectly prepared, and the ribs were tender and just right. On my next round, I loaded up on fried rice with chicken and vegetables, which was equally satisfying. My kids loved the hibachi station, especially being able to customize their plates with noodles, rice, and their choice of meats. It's always a win when everyone in the family finds something they genuinely enjoy. Needless to say, Ocean Buffet is officially becoming a regular dining spot for us. Great variety, fresh food, and a consistently tasty experience -- we'll definitely be back! read more

Went to Ocean Buffet with my brother and a coworker right when they opened and everything looked really clean and fresh. You can tell they keep the place well maintained. The setup is really nice too, very open and modern, not your typical crowded buffet feel at first. There's a lot of variety here. I honestly wanted to try everything so I just took small portions from different stations. The soups really stood out to me. I tried the wonton, clam chowder, and hot and sour and all of them had really good flavor, not bland at all. Sushi section had a good selection and everything looked fresh. Hot food area had plenty of options and was fully stocked when we got there. I also liked the fruit and dessert area, nice mix so you are not just eating heavy food the whole time. Service was smooth and staff kept things clean and organized. It did start getting pretty crowded about 30 minutes in, so coming early definitely helped. Definitely coming back again, just need to show up with a bigger appetite next time because there is no way to try everything in one visit read more

Visited Ocean Buffet on Christmas Day. It was 36.99 including all you can eat lobster tail. I was thoroughly excited about that aspect. It didn't disappoint, I had two good size lobster tail that I enjoyed. I also enjoyed sashimi, salt and pepper crab, ginger lobster, a salty egg bun. Just to name a few. I do feel I got my moneys worth too. My husband does not like seafood and fish and enjoyed the hibachi and other non seafood options including different noodles. Drinks are additional. Service is nice and the ambiance is nice and new and spacious. read more

I came for lunch today and plan to return for dinner one day to see the difference. At $17, lunch was very good. Many love their sushi. I like the soups, Hibachi, and the stir frying stations. The sushi portions are a bit smaller, to me. I tried the sashimi in small cups, but it tasted a little sour. I took a star for that. Great services. They sang birthday song aside your table while the music plays the song. That's nice. Boys, I missed the Crazy Buffet which I ran back in 2000s. read more

I enjoyed the buffet as a late lunch and also to preview the difference in the dinner selections. The food at Ocean Buffet for the most part is similar to other Asian buffets. I went on a week day in December near 3 pm, a couple weeks after they opened. My main goal was to try the sushi but I was intrigued by their dim sum station. First of all the restaurant has beautiful decor which is sleek and modern. The buffets are spread out so the self service area is not crowded. They have very clean and neat restrooms. They don't have seasoning on the table and your server provides items like chopsticks, napkins, seafood crackers etc. I thought the sushi looked awesome and took one piece of every roll. I felt like a kid in a candy store. However back at the table I was disappointed. It seemed that they make 4 or 5 kinds of the same roll and they look different because they might add roe or avocado on top or change out the sauce. The sashimi was ok. I did enjoy the seaweed salad. The soup bar is very appealing as they have 5 or six kettles lined up against a wall. The soup I got was egg drop and they had green onions and other toppings right there. The dim sum area was mostly empty. They had chicken feet which I skipped and a small dumpling with little flavor. Later on as dinner was being laid out they had a brown bread bun with egg on the inside. A gold streak painted on top. This was a new to me so I was happy to try it. They had a seafood counter with shrimp and shell fish. I noticed a chef putting out crab legs and they were big. I was kind of waiting and he indicated that I could take some. Right after I took some, a supervisor came over and placed a red sign that said dinner only. Oops! They were chilled and fresh and I had to ask the server for crackers to open the shell. The hot bar had lots of choices the lunch has these little salt and pepper hot crabs. Items I really liked were the traditional stir fried green beans and other veggies. They have sausage and other meats which are hot and steak is served for dinner. It was not cut on the bias and was chewy. I did not try the hibachi option where you choose your ingredients and a chef stir-fries it for you. The desserts were good and they have individual ice cream cups and tiny mouse and cake bites. I also enjoyed the fruit. Recap: -Prices are good. Seniors get a 10 pct discount. You are presented with a bill at the end of your meal. -Many different buffet choices. Like most places dinner brings more sashimi choices, crab legs, meat and it seemed like the dim sum was better replenished. -Quality for the most part was good and the staff was actively refilling/refreshing selections. -Service was readily available and used plates were quickly removed. I think I prefer the all you can order type Asian restaurants but this kind of restaurant is great for trying many small samples of a lot of foods. Overall I enjoyed my meal. read more

I've been hearing a lot about Oceans Buffet lately (specifically the large amount of food offerings), so when my husband and I were in Orlando the other night, we decided to give them a try. We arrived about 2 hours before closing on a Sunday night and they were still packed. We scanned the QR code at the hostess stand in order to join the waitlist and waited outside in their huge front patio/waiting area for about 45 minutes before we were texted that our table was ready. Apparently, they also texted about 4 other parties that their table was ready as well, so there was a bit of confusion as to who was texted first/truly next in line but it was shortly resolved. The restaurant is large, spacious and clean with modern decor using light wood tones and the color orange. Booth and table seating is available and my husband and I were seated at a table. The wait staff was attentive and took away dirty dishes quickly. There were a lot of people, so navigating the buffet was a bit challenging at times but not a big deal. There truly is a lot of food offerings in theory but there were at least 10 empty dishes the first time we went through the buffet line. However, throughout the evening, dishes were continually refilled and new offerings joined the buffet, but there were still a handful of empty dishes at any given moment. Later in the night, we saw brisket and chicken teriyaki skewers join the buffet. The chicken skewers were my favorite of the chicken dishes and my husband really liked the brisket, but it was gone very quickly from the buffet. We both thought the sweet and sour chicken was overcooked and tough and I couldn't finish the piece of ham that I got as it had no flavoring and the texture was too chewy. At one point in the event, lobster (in the form of a seafood boil) made an appearance but the three men in front of me piled their plates high with the lobster as soon as it arrived on the buffet, leaving nothing but empty shells for the rest of us. I wanted to look for vegetable sushi on the sushi table but very few sushi rolls were labeled, so I passed. Most of the food that we tried was average in taste when compared to other Asian buffets and my husband thought that the $31.99 per adult was overpriced. We were glad that we checked out Oceans Buffet to see what the "hype" was about but we won't be making any future plans to return as read more

Nice to see the Fashion Square mall get a new tenant! I was excited to see a new restaurant pop up! They've been opened for about a week now, and I've heard good things. They've were packed when we arrived at 7p on a Wednesday, which is a good sign. We waited about 10 minutes to be sat. We got our drinks, then it was off to the buffet line. They had a huge array of Asian foods! I started with the sushi, which was extremely fresh and delicious! Surprisingly good quality for a buffet! Course two was Dim Sum with Xiao Long Bao and Shu Mi. Both excellent! There was this black bun that didn't taste good. It oozed what taste and smelt like bad egg yolk. I recommend avoiding it. The crab legs were picked over, with small legs being the only thing left. The hot table had the usual Chinese buffet offering. The Pineapple Sticky Rice was fantastic though! They also had Hibachi, but there was a decent wait for it. The desserts were hit and miss though. The coffee pastry was the best one. The restaurant had a good amount of seating and was well spaced out. It's worth trying once, but the value for the price really isn't there. Also highly annoying waiting for the one set of tongs with a line of people for any given dish. Poor layout for cross contamination too. read more

Flavor: all you can eat! average / slightly above average buffet- best when opening and fresh. Def worth the lunch price. Lots of options from Sushi to Asian and American entrees. Good overall, especially for price and options. No doubt you can find a few dishes to make it a tasty meal! Service: friendly and attentive. Other notes: new, clean, big. Location & Parking: large free parking lot. Price: ~$20 lunch / ~$32 (see pricing screenshot) good price for seafood AYCE Is it what's up? Buffet of the sea for me read more

So the Ocean Buffet finally opens its doors...and of course I'm there for their soft opening. The place is huge and the space is well designed. Modern design and they stay far away from the neon lights and Chinese landscape murals that you find at all the other Asian buffets. Feels like a Vegas style buffet. There are plenty of options that are offered at this new location. Your usual Chinese option are available along with hibachi, soup station and sushi. The sushi offerings are definitely the best (for buffet style) in the area especially since Mikado in Altamonte closed its doors. A plethora of unique rolls are available and even for the lunch option there is sashimi to partake. The Chinese options were pretty run of the mill and for this day nothing really stood out to me. I do enjoy seeing a dim sum section as well as a carving station. There was also an appealing seafood area with large half portion of crab and peeled shrimp. Super stoked that the Colonial/Mills 50 area now has a local Asian buffet. A welcomed addition to the hood and looking forward to having it as a buffet option. Now I can get my fill on either soup,salad, and breadsticks or hop over to Ocean to satisfy my Asian buffet cravings...now all the area needs is a Brazilian Rodizio read more

We enjoyed the 1st night of their soft opening. The ambiance was beautiful. You walk up to the huge front patio. The front entrance is very inviting. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful. The bbq ribs were the best that we've had at a Chinese buffet. Soup dumplings were good. We enjoyed the shrimp cocktail. It was very fresh with big shrimp. There was a large variety of sushi. (Wish the sushi was labeled to tell what is in each roll.) The hibachi was good with lots of different offerings. They had some non-typical items such as cold seafood salad and a carving station. The staff were friendly. They were attentive to take away dirty dishes and fill drinks. read more

For a buffet, this was surprisingly really good food. The sushi was excellent as was the Tepanyaki. We love the coconut shrimp and the soup dumplings. The wonton soup was delicious.

We were here with friends two days before Chinese new year in February. It was busy but expected! There was 10 of us. You will have to signed in on the tablet at the reception table. Then you waited. I got the text and physical call from a server at the entrance! We got seated and then the server came and took our drink order. Then we ventured out to the buffet. There is plenty of food available, fresh seafood like king crabs, stone crabs, fresh oysters, shrimps and then of course sashimi, different kind of sushi, also good amount of dim sums (very tasty also, esp the running egg yolk black custard buns). Chinese stir fry, very worth mentioning are the lobster stir fries, two different clams stir fries, also there is chicken on a stick, beef and more. Desert they have ice cream, mango cream cake and chocolate cream cake and Oreo cream cake and Chinese donuts! On and all it is very worth it even with the wait. The servers and receptionist are all very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is clean and very chic! Will definitely come again! read more

Excellent buffet! Great for sushi and Chinese buffet fans. We tried it out for lunch the other day and were very impressed. Entrance area is very open and welcoming. There is a huge gazebo and decorative cherry blossom tree in front. Perfect for photos ops. Dining area was a decent size and I like how the buffet spacing was set up. I started off with the sushi. Nice variety. Everything I tried was fresh and tasty. You can tell it doesn't sit out too long which is a good sign. Soy sauce dispensers were labeled and small dipping cups provided which is always a plus. I liked all the hot food I ate and was surprised by the amount of dim sum available. There was a pineapple sticky rice also that was delicious. I didn't try the hibachi this time, but the selection available appeared to be better than most places where they are tucked in a small area toward the back. The dessert selection was slim and nothing special, but if you want something sweet after your meal, it is perfect. They had my favorite sugared donuts you'd find in a standard Chinese buffet. There were 2 different mousse cups to choose from - mint or mango, some type of chocolate cream cake and ice cream cups. Service was good and someone would pick up dirty plates as they walked by. If you were celebrating a birthday, they played a Happy Birthday song every 30 minutes or so which was fun. We're already planning to come back! read more

Celebrated a birthday at Ocean Buffet. What a great experience! So much variety, there is something for everyone. I was not thrilled with the soups I tried and I ate too much of everything else to try the hibachi so I'll definitely be back. Service was spot on and all buffet tables were always super clean with food replenished often. there's stuff on the buffet I've not eaten before or seen cooked, hog hocks, chicken feet and frogs legs. When you walk in it looks like you're entering an aquarium on the outside. I definitely recommend this place. read more

When Ocean Buffet first opened, I purposely didn't go for the first month to let them flush out their initial opening hiccups.As I entered the buffet a month or so after opening, I thought maybe this buffet wouldn't be bad after looking at the large sushi selection. Unfortunately, the sushi rice was overcooked and mushy even though the overall flavors tasted okay. For the soup, dim sum and other hot entrees, I couldn't help but think that a majority of them were store bought without any alternation to flavors. The hot & sour soup, egg drop soup and what I think was clam chowder (without any clams), were all bland tasting. I did enjoy the large dining space & I did not have any complaints on service. However it is definitely not worth the price to come here for store bought tasting bland food. read more

*As a note, I have only gone during the lunch special. I was excited when this buffet finally opened, and I was not disappointed. It's quite sizeable and while there is a lot of seating it never felt crowded when browsing options. Lunch options are of course different than evening, and overall pretty standard fare but definitely felt to be higher quality. They did have some elements that stand out compared to other buffets - a dim sum station (with authentic options, not just catering to the general crowd pleasing options) and sushi freshly prepared ranging from classic options to some with fun flare like a mango roll. Everything tasted fantastic and the 90 min restriction was reasonable. Definitely be prepared for a bit of a wait as it's very popular (likely due to being so new and the lunch special being a good price for what you get). The wait area outside has some photographic elements, and also a gazebo style seating for something different. As a heads up: When you arrive, they don't sign you in traditionally and instead rely on a single (poorly designed) QR code. They really should make the code more easily accessible (current placement has it so people are blocking flow of entry and exit traffic trying to scan) but also use a more simplified code. It has sooo many elements (and when I went included items that shouldn't be present noting it was clearly a screenshot. There was a "menu" hamburger over part of the code). A lot of people had difficulty which then meant having to pull the hosts to have them manually add you. It all worked out, but redesigning this process would make first impressions more smooth. read more

The food was decent. The price was high. I think the lunch special of $19 would be definitely worth it, but we went on a Sunday and it is quite pricey at $32. If you're into seafood, they have a lot of options. Although my group said the crab legs weren't good, but went to town on the oysters. I really enjoyed the coconut shrimp and there was a sushi roll with mango that was really delicious. The dim sum section was actually pretty good: dumplings were decent, they had black bean ribs with good flavor, and salty egg custards were another favorite. The stir fry station was okay, but the chef undercooked our noodles that we picked out. Overall, it was a good experience. read more

Ocean Buffet - Yum! - Buffets Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I'm gonna go with slightly above 3 stars as the price is decent for the selection and variety. There's tons of hot food, a good selection of sushi and sashimi (which I really enjoy for buffet sushi), dim sum section, fresh fruit, and other kinds of seafood. Really nothing is missed here, but given the range everything is quite mediocre. Nothing astounding but still good as like I said, there's so much to choose from it'd be impossible to do it all perfectly. My standouts are the salmon sashimi and dim sum. I noticed the items rotate: the first visit I tried the shiu mai which was yummy, and second time there were red bean buns, as well as salted egg buns which were my favorite!! Overall, I'd definitely give this place a try just to check it out, but expect to be overwhelmed by choices. It's also very clean and efficient! read more

This all-you-can-eat buffet restaurant in Orlando offers quite the variety of seafood, sushi, hibachi, international dishes, salads, fruit and desserts. Dinner price is $31.99 for adults and $13.99 for 3-3 1/2 ft children, and $15.99 for 4-5 ft children. The child price is outrageous for a 3 year old that hardly eats. The atmosphere is very nice a plenty of choices. The crab legs were the smallest I've seen and not worth trying to open and clams on a half shell. I've been to another buffet restaurant, the same price, that had nice size crab legs and oysters on a half shell which I prefer. I enjoyed all the other dishes. The server left the check and you pay at the register when you leave. read more
