Great food, good ambience and good service. Thanks to Carlos for good hospitality.............

The food was really good. The service here was great, Imelda was super nice and helped a lot. Overall really good.

This is a great buffet spot when you want a reliable and enjoyable meal! My family and I have been dining here very often and we're always so pleased with the service and food. They have a great variety of hot foods, appetizers, and delicious sashimi that's always well-stocked. The service really stands out because the staff are all friendly, efficient, and incredibly attentive! read more

Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to. The variety of food options was impressive, something for everyone, from fresh seafood to classic comfort dishes. Everything I tried was flavorful and well prepared, and the food was constantly being restocked, so it always felt fresh. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure tables were cleared quickly. The atmosphere was clean, spacious, and perfect for both family gatherings and casual meals. For the price, you really can't beat the selection and quality. If you're in the Garden Grove area and looking for a solid buffet experience, Paradise Buffet is worth checking out! read more

I've been to many buffets in Orange County, and this one is the cleanest. The food here doesn't sit for long , considering other buffets leave the food sitting all day. This buffet offers sushi, Mongolian grill, Canto style, and American style food. The value to quality ratio makes me come here a lot. Cheaper to get filled up for lunch or dinner, here, than going anywhere else. The desert options are way better than most buffets in OC. Side note: I am not comparing this to Vegas buffets. Local buffets in OC are 10x worse. Cons: I got fatter read more

Paradise Buffet is not too bad; the price is almost the same as a McDonald's crappy combo, but you get more value; it's AYCE. Servers are nice and hardworking, but the older boss lady who does the cashiering is biased towards other ethnicities; every time I come here, no thank you or smile from this lady. SMDH. If you can't give the same courtesy to other ethnicities, I think you should be demoted to working in the back of the house, not in the front of the house. Plus, their drinking cups and utensils are really dirty, not properly washed. read more

Good food, great service, affordable and always playing old school jams. Why wouldn't I come here?!

It's rare to come here without a line to stand in to get seated. And, unfortunately, it's a narrow, short waiting area so if there are large parties in front of you, you're going to be standing outside. And if you need to get through the crowd, good luck. As far as the food selection goes, everything here is fine. Nothing is going to blow your mind, but you're also going to an all you can eat buffet where the kitchen is going to have to be constantly churning out food. You shouldn't expect anything life changing. What they do put out is tasty enough and there's a wide enough variety that you are going to find something to eat until you can't eat any more. From seafood to meats to desserts &, yes, salad, they have a little bit of everything including a cooked to order Mongolian beef area. They also have plenty of classics like chicken fingers for the picky eater kids in your life. So, if you're craving a Vegas buffet but can't make it out to Nevada & you don't want to break the bank, Paradise Buffet will certainly scratch that itch. What more can you ask for in a shopping center buffet? read more

Paradise Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Parking is in a plaza, so easy to find. You pay upfront before choosing your own table to sit and then grabbing food. $14 for lunch and $19 without beverage for dinner. I wanted to highlight our server, Eddie, for his service in making our dinner enjoyable. He was very kind and came by often to clear our plates which we didn't expect but was appreciative of. It's been awhile since I've been to a buffet. Sadly, I didn't see any crab legs (at least not at this buffet) but they have other assortments of food such as pizza and orange chicken! I really like the concept of an open kitchen because you can choose the type of raw meat you want and they'll cook it in front of you. There's also a sushi bar and they make the sushi in front of you as well. Good selection of desserts including a soft serve ice cream machine. Place was clean and bustling with families. Food was alright, pretty typical of a buffet like this -- would recommend to try it! read more

Paradise Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Garden Grove, California

The restaurant is always decorated for all holidays. The staff are very nice and helpful with checking in or cleaning up. The food is always fresh and it is refilled continuously, as soon as the trays are almost finished. The fruits and vegetables are also fresh and flavorful. They have so many desserts such as cakes, pies, cookies, brownies, cotton candy, ice cream and more. We always come here for special occasions or at least once a month. You can't beat their price with such good variety of food :) read more

This place can get pretty crowded on the weekends but thankfully the lines move pretty fast. I see a lot of ppl bringing their families here to eat including little kids. It's a buffet style and you pay up front before being seated. The food choices a re pretty eclectic ranging from American dishes such as pizza and mashed potatoes to fried rice and chow mein. There is soup, sushi bar, stir fry and a huge dessert section as well. It can get pretty crowded but the staff are really good about making it manageable to get to your table and to the food. Overall fairly clean and it is sooo filling. Eating here in the afternoon pretty much made me full the rest of the day. It's a bit of a drive from me but worth it if you have lots of mouths to feed. Will attach picture of prices. Prices vary depending on time of day and day of the week so keep that in mind. read more

Paradise Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Garden Grove, California

A good spot for a casual and affordable meal . It's not a perfect buffet, but for the price, it's definitely worth it. It's only $20.49 / an adult on the weekends. Food: the food is constantly being refilled, so nothing runs out.I like crawfish, clams and shrimps. Such good flavoring. Especially their clams chowder soup was delicious. The selection is decent, and the desserts are a nice treat to finish off the meal. The salad is fresh and tasty, which is a plus. I like the cooking section. There is Someone who cook for you the food you choose. Service: The staff were friendly, helpful, clean up every single dish you finished. Ambiance: This place is quite spacious and clean. The seating is very comfortable. Plenty of Parking! read more

Honestly for $21/adult (cheaper for kids and 65+), it's a good value buffet. Don't expect quality food but it's a good bang for your buck. And they have an unlimited cotton candy machine! Long lines (30+ min) and they don't take reservations so show up early or come at off hours. Great parking since it's next to the Walmart. It has sushi, teppanyaki, a dessert bar and the usual Chinese/Panda Express stuff like orange chicken, chow mein, egg soup, and broccoli beef. Lots of American stuff to like french fries and macaroni and cheese. Staff is very nice and it is very crowded and loud. If you have teenage boys in your family, it'll definitely keep them full. read more

Paradise Buffet - Cotton candy - Buffets Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Very clean and no short cuts taken. I get better quality soups, pizza, and comparable salads as Souplantation, which has been gone for a few years now. There is a good quality sushi selection with most of the popular selections that I like. There is a legit Mongolian grill, a surprisingly good Chinese food selection. I was surprised that the fried chicken is similar in taste and quality as Shakey's. I have tried Umi and a number of other popular buffets but like Paradise better. The service has always been great. read more

Honestly, not bad! I was expecting a lot worse but for a $20/person spot, it's pretty much all you can ask for. It's definitely a step up from the Hometown that used to be here. I brought my parents and staff gave them a senior discount. Place was clean & service was great! Free refills too! As long as you temper expectations and understand it's not a Michelin Star restaurant the food is pretty good and there are plenty of options! If I was a college student on a budget I would chill out and study for finals right here. Perhaps I haven't been to many buffets (sober) but I'm pretty impressed. If they had alcohol here, the lines would be so long you'd have to make a reservation. read more

I'm a huge fan of bang for your buck ie $15 lunch for all you can eat buffet but don't expect the best quality food. Anywhere you look now, it's at least $15 for a lunch that may fill you up. So $15 lunch buffet is really a steal. This buffet is located in the same plaza as 24 hour fitness with a BOA in the front and there's plenty of parking. The food is typical of American style buffets with food ranging from basic salads, pizza, fried chicken, to roast beef, swai filet, and the best of all the custom Mangolian Beef chef. The food and options during lunch was ok for the price however it looks like the dinner hour there are more selections for seafood. So although I honestly wouldn't come back for the lunch, it is an extremely affordable option that will definitely fill you up. I would consider coming back for dinner if I can confirm they have more seafood selections. read more

We came here for a family lunch get together. The decor and atmosphere is bright and inviting. No complaints here. The layout of the food is clean and fresh. Service is also prompt and friendly. They have a area for salad, cold fruits, hot food(chicken, pizza, beef, fries, etc), Mongolian grill, sushi, and dessert(cakes, pies, soft serve ice cream, etc). There is a large selection of food. The food isn't the best but for the price of $20 per person, it's not bad. I did think that the teriyaki chicken and beef broccoli was too salty. The Mongolian grill had lots of options varying from chicken, pork, beef, vegetables, and sauces. You have to add the sauces yourself which can lead to your dish being too seasoned or under seasoned. Also the soft serve was not sweet, lacked flavor, and very grainy. Overall, the food left me desiring more, but I guess I can't complain too much considering the price. However, I am willing to pay more for better quality. read more

We had a bad experience with the hibachi cook, for some reason they did not want to add the sauced we had picked to our dish. In the cooks words "I'm too busy and don't have time for that." read more

There's a little bit of everything for a family with kids. I come for the sushi. The kids love the cotton candy and the ice cream. The wife loves the seafood. This place does not disappoint. It's perfect for a Sunday afternoon to spend some quality time. read more

My 2nd time at a Paradise Buffet. My 1st time at this location in Garden Grove. I really, really like this buffet brand and both locations I've been to were both consistently good. Though they don't have as many items as the Flaming Buffet brand, I like the food at Paradise Buffet better. There's more American food choices too. The Mongolian grill is very impressive as they don't have basic vegetables. I really enjoyed the pot roast that is similar to Golden Corral's, my Mongolian grill creation was fire, Chicken wings were hot and fresh, beef and broccoli was on point (beef was textured and tender), and they have whole jalapeños, yummm!!! Sushi selection is good. They had 2 vegetable sushi rolls available. However, if you are truly vegetarian or have seafood allergies, just beware of cross contamination bc I got the vegetable rolls and they had a few specks of tobiko (orange roe eggs) on it. I'm sure it wasn't on purpose, but just beware (otherwise, you may need to use your Epi Pen)!! Service was great. They were fast at filling our water cups and collecting dirty plates. Dessert selection is plenty and I especially love, love, love that they had cotton candy!! It was so good and made fresh, I ended up eating 5. Overall, a really good buffet to take a big group of people. read more

Overall, pleasantly surprised! And buffets aren't my thing. Service was excellent and overall the place felt clean! There were tons of options here and most of the things I tried were decent! I'd skip the sushi personally. Loved the amount of dessert here too. For 32$ for two people we got full. Nothing here leaves me wanting to come back for more but I would recommend it to buffet lovers. read more

When you first enter, it looks very clean and the dishes look appetizing. Went there for a weekday lunch at 11. Had some of the clams which tasted delicious. Tried their spicy seafood mix with shrimp and mussels. The shrimp were big but they weren't fresh. It seemed like they had been cooked the day before. It was disappointing. The panko fried shrimp is mislabeled as salt and pepper shrimp. Wish it were indeed salt and pepper shrimp. I didn't try their cook to order grill. I think that this is the best way to enjoy this restaurant. They have a large selection of cakes. Their fresh fruit was just okay They offer senior discount and early bird pricing. Went again for 2nd time and tried the cook to order grill. One advice when piling up your ingredients is to start with the sauces first in the bottom of the bowl and then select your ingredients. For some reason I prefer the grill at Hokkaido buffet. read more

Best buffet you've been to? Probably not. Best bang for your buck? Absolutely. For the price of less than an entree (~15pp), you can enjoy the lunch buffet! I brought my parents here since my family had been talking of going to a local buffet, and it was not half bad. I really appreciated the Mongolian BBQ (build your own Mongolian bbq plate). It came with three choices of meats and tons of veggies. In general, this place is a veggie lovers dream. There was an amazing salad bar along with the veggies at the Mongolian station which equates to many options when it comes to vegetarians. The meats however were plentiful but of okay quality. My favorite was the fried chicken! The chicken was crispy, and plentiful. The desserts station was pretty good as well. It had all the usuals (cookies, cakes, cheesecakes, ice cream) Service was amazing. Our server was a very nice lady who came around quite often to clean our dishes and refill our drinks. Overall would come back just to make my family happy. read more

I want to start by saying I understand the need for a mandatory gratuity policy on large parties--that's completely reasonable and is commonplace in foodservice. However, we experienced a significant issue with how this policy is communicated and enforced. Our large party arrived separately and each family paid individually upon entrance. At no point was the gratuity policy mentioned, nor is there any signage at the entrance or payment area indicating this requirement. After everyone had already completed their transactions, staff had to approach us to explain the policy and request additional payment. This created an awkward and uncomfortable situation for everyone involved--both guests and staff. This entire issue could have been easily prevented with clear signage at the entrance and point of sale stating the mandatory gratuity policy for large parties. When customers arrive separately and pay individually, they have no way of knowing they're part of a "large party" unless it's clearly communicated upfront. I'm happy to revise this one star review to reflect a better experience once management addresses this by installing clear, visible signage about the gratuity policy. The staff were polite in handling the situation, but the lack of communication infrastructure put everyone in an unnecessarily difficult position. Management needs to do better and stop putting their poor staff in difficult situations read more

Great variety, fresh dishes, friendly service. worth it for a casual feast. Solid value.!! Gracias Maura !
