Lo Mein, Coconut Shrimp, Sushi. - The image shows a white ceramic plate with two partially eaten sushi rolls, leftover noodles, vegetables, and sauce. A metal fork rests on the plate, and there is a soy sauce bottle to the left. In the background, there are two wrapped candies and a few dollar bills on a dark wooden table, indicating a dining setting at a restaurant.

The food was unbelievably good. If you can see from the picture, I didn't even have time to take a picture of my food before I ate it because it was so amazing. And the sushi bar was phenomenal.This place's sushi was fresh and tasty, and had much variety. The owners were very speedy with picking up the plates after we were done eating, not one plate was left on the table after we finished. They were very accommodating. I am very satisfied with the service and the scenery. It was a nice temperature, the music was soothing, and the people inside of the restaurant all had manners and spoke with their quiet voices. Also, the owners are very amazing with kids. I personally do not have kids, but whenever a child and the child's mother came into the building, he greeted both of them and set them down. And the owner started talking to the kid in a baby voice about what the kid wanted to drink. It was the sweetest thing ever. Also, I have never seen any other buffet walk around and stir their food like this place does. They make sure to stir the food periodically so that way it doesn't sit for too long and get nasty. And whenever I say they stir it, they stir it a lot and extremely well so that way it is top quality. 10/10 place, I've went back three times so far.

Mushrooms, crab rangoons, amazing potatoes, and sushi

Absolute fire place ignore all the bad reviews it has great food and a clean place unlike most Chinese buffets very friendly servers and plenty to choose from 10/10

Highly recommend

Not the best Chinese food and the restaurant is just set up very weird. But we had a really nice waitress who was very attentive.

Disappointed, usually it's decent. The food was old and dried up. Almost broke a tooth on a crab Rangoon.

Four Seasons Buffett - Best chicken wings around!

Four Seasons Buffett

(49 reviews)

It's been over five years since we last tried an Asian buffet, but we had heard really great things…read moreabout the Four Seasons Chinese Buffet in Covington, so we gave it a whirl for a Thursday lunch. Four Seasons has a stylish, contemporary persona that hints at a more upscale experience than you might have expected. Service was extremely efficient, with a sincere, welcoming spirit that was noteworthy. The food was really excellent and clearly a cut above the average buffet fare. They feature great salad and desert bars and a vast array of all the standard Asian dishes, with a special focus on seafood, shrimp, and gulf favorites. American staples are available also, as is a really fine sushi selection that was head and shoulders better than any I have ever seen at a buffet venue. The price of a full buffet lunch was extremely competitive. Four Seasons Buffet in Covington is highly recommended!

Y'all know I'm always raving over these guys, but it just gets better every time…read more One of the owners (Ken today) always gets me some fresh-out-da-oil chicken wings when I come for a visit...and let me tell you, as a chicken wing aficionado, these are some of the best I've ever had. You get that delicious hit of the 5-spice, the crispy and crunchy coating is perfectly done, and the wings are fire-hot when they hit the table. Probably not everyone's cup of tea, pun intended, but fried chicken is my jam and this is fantastic stuff. Everything else on the bar is good, with lots of jalapenos to be had with whatever dish you select...try the onion shrimp, the thai chicken, (OF COURSE THE WINGS), or anything on the bar - I haven't been disappointed in a single item over the years we've been coming here to say hi to friends and enjoy some good eating.

New Orleans Style Seafood Restaurant & Market

So guess who found themselves in "New Orleans" during Super Bowl weekend? [yes, I'm writing this in…read moreNovember. Yes, this happened TEN MONTHS AGO. Let me live - Better late than never lol] And please notice the quotation marks around "New Orleans," because yeah, I was bamboozled. My company really had me thinking I'd be IN THE CITY eating real Cajun food, soaking up that seasoning, that spice, that Louisiana magic -- and then they drove us all the way across the river to ... Covington, Louisiana. Covington. Be serious. Anyway, once we arrived, before I even attempted a nap, my mission was crystal clear: secure Cajun food immediately. I found New Orleans Style Seafood Restaurant & Market on one of the delivery apps and decided to give them a try. Best choice. Pleasant surprise. I started with the Cajun Crawfish Bread -- that creamy crawfish mix toasted with cheese? Delicious. Like comfort food with a little attitude. Then I had the Bayou Redfish -- grilled, sitting on linguine, all covered in this creamy crawfish sauce? Chef's kiss. Everything blended perfectly. Cajun flavors doing exactly what they're supposed to do. And because I cannot see the word "beignet" and leave it alone, I ordered the beignet sticks for dessert. I'll be honest -- they were good when they were piping hot, but once they cooled down I wasn't as crazy about them. For a layover that had me on the wrong side of the river, this food absolutely came through Would definitely order from them again!

Every crawfish I peeled was breaking in pieces. Some weren't purged properly and still tasted like…read morethe water they were pulled from. They brought out a second batch to see if they would be better... they weren't. The sausage was cold. Service was good though. Angela was great!!

It's been quite a while since I've been in here, but my friends all tell me I gotta come back...and…read morethe one I had dinner with tonight insisted on it! My buddy and his wife asked me out to dine - I had my heart set on some pho, but when I got here, I had a hankering for vermicelli. I like mine with egg roll AND grilled pork - if you haven't done it, do it - for real. The presentation was different from what I was used to - a flatter, wider bowl, the pork thin sliced, almost julienned, but everything was fresh - crunchy where it was supposed to be, hot and charred/fried when needed, and it really hit the spot. Fish sauce and a generous serving of sriracha, and I was home. Steve's wife got the dumplings, and he had a giant plate of something or other with soup, but he also polished off some of Alicia's food while we were there. I remember this dude from college - I was the fat kid, but I sure couldn't hang with this dude's stomach! Our server was so super awesome and cute, but I forgot to get her name. She couldn't say Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio, but neither could I, so there. Very attentive, got our food out hot and delicious, and was a wonderful host. If you're hankering for some Vietnamese or Chinese food, but can't decide - here's your sign! Seriously, though - excellent food, terrific service, amazing company, and a full belly made for the perfect night. Can't wait to see where you pick next, my friend!

From the moment we walked into North Empress, the experience was top-tier. They seated us right…read moreaway and immediately made us feel welcome. Our waitress was fantastic--she offered us water, gave us thoughtful recommendations, and really seemed to care about making sure we enjoyed our meal. The food I ordered ended up being amazing--fresh, flavorful, and honestly one of the best dishes I've had in a while. But what really set this visit apart was the owner. Not only did he come out to greet us, but when we accidentally spilled a drink (embarrassingly), he made a light-hearted joke, turned the moment into a laugh, and insisted on cleaning it up himself even though we tried to take care of it. To top it all off, he offered us 10% off the next time we come in. I even joked that I'd buy him lunch for all the trouble, and he just laughed and said, "No--lunch will be on us next time!" You really don't get that kind of hospitality everywhere. Amazing people, incredible food, and a genuinely memorable night. North Empress has definitely earned a return visit!
