Poor Furr's Buffet on San Mateo closed down, who knows if it was the pandemic ... now this place is a Chinese restaurant buffet. I am impressed the food was delicious and out did other local buffets. The place was clean and also greeted right away and waiter refilled water. The price is acceptable and I will visit when I crave Chinese. Lastly the salmon sushi was very delicious.

Hours as of 07/11/2023.

This Asian style buffet was barely ok. The cost for food was reasonable. The quality of the food was pretty questionable. I am unable to eat chicken. I was not able to eat potstickers without taking one, breaking it open, and checking the inside. (Which seemed to be pork). There were very few labels on the food. The food temp was probably borderline. There were "crab Rangoons" that had been dunked in the fryer, but had not been crisped up. Someone posted much of this is pre-prepped Frozen and canned food. I agree. Hubby and I question if the employees are the same as Buffet King.

A good assortment from the buffet  1-18-25

It's a buffet with a fair variety of many types of foods. Some really tasty items: the fried chicken wings, BBQ Ribs (usually very tender) cheese Mussels, egg rolls, fried fish, poached white fish, Tofu sushi pockets, even the enchiladas are reasonable. Also some good ice cream (I like to add some peach juice to my strawberry ice cream It's a buffet under $16 - even on a Sunday night. I couldn't figure out where I wanted to go for dinner - I was able to have many different cuisines. Some are better than places that specialize in certain styles. A good meal at a reasonable price - and NO DISHES!! 2-23-25 (photos taken over several visits)

Given 5 Stars because: - Service was wonderful filling drinks (5 times) & removing dirty plates - 4, 45 foot rows of food or 8 lanes to serve from - Clean glass doors, restroom urinals & toilets as I wash my hands each time I dish out - Healthy selection of seafood, beef dishes and chicken dishes. Not sire if pork is offered as dishes do not have name tags. - At $15.99 for adults, a senior citizen discount and $2.49 drinks, you can say it is affordable. - I spiced up my dishes with their chili oil, and imported Sriracha sauce. - large groups of ten or more will have the option of the private dining room or tables that seat 13. - Vegan options. - Desserts galore. - Ice cream station offering 4 flavors; cherry, vanilla, chocolate & mint chocolate chip. - tappen grill. Do not know if attendant understood English, just Mandarin. - The buffet was beautifully arranged, should have snapped my photos then but....hungry The three of us came out full at $52.

Hot and sour soup.

This was actually a very pleasant surprise. We originally drove all the way to Hong Kong on the west side but my daughter had some anxiety because of how packed it was. We found this place on Yelp and said it was good for people who liked Hong Kong and to our pleasant surprise it was VERY similar. I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same ownership. They had a lot of similar menu items and setup. We went when they offered a father's day special buffet so it was more expensive than usual but still a great value. I don't know if some of the items we had available would be there on a typical day. We had a great meal and the staff was very friendly and attentive to our drinks refills and removing of our dirty plates. Would definitely come back.

I am shocked that this is the first review! We drove by and thought Furr's was open again, but noticed the sign Royal Buffet Grill. We decided to stop and eat since we were on the go and a buffet is a great place for everyone to ve satisfied wnd find exactly what they want. We were all surprised to see this was an asian buffet! My daughter and I had been in the mood for sushi, so it worked perfect. They had at least 6 different rolls to choose from, a grill for fresh cooked food, and lots of traditional dishes. The waiter was so fast with beverages and taking our plates. He was nice and accommodating when we asked if he could point us in the right direction of some sauces for our rolls. The music was really pleasant. The only real downside was that the decor was all left over from Furr's, including pictures of dishes that were not being served. There were also signs above dishes that were not being served. BBQ Pork, Italian Pasta, etc. I am not sure if they were misplaced or signs from the last Furr's dishes. Worth a stop if you're hungry, enjoy a variety of asian food, and want to try a new buffet!!

We love this place. Great food, service and ambiance. Seriously, awesome food. And, they get a lot…read moreof take out orders too

Mumbai street food! There's something you don't see on a buffet - except at Curry Leaf! Vada pav!…read morePav bhaj! Yum, yum, yum! Yesterday we popped in on a whim and found it was one of the evenings that Curry Leaf does a buffet. One of the things that's really wonderful about this restaurant is - not only is the food wonderfully flavorful and of top quality; these folks can COOK - you find many dishes here you don't run across in most of the "cater to the lowest common denominator" Indian restaurants. At Curry Leaf, you'll find both northern and southern dishes. And if you go when there's a buffet, you'll find the dishes actually _change_ - and there are a variety of them, and they're cerebral. (Ever see aamrakhand on a buffet before? I never have - and this mango/saffron pudding is haunting my taste buds' memory this morning.) Yes, you'll find the classics well represented, but I've never seen goat chettinad on a buffet anywhere else in the US. I'm past the age of eat-until-I-can't-move, but the buffet at Curry Leaf was so good that it's the next morning and I already have a hankering to return. Oh! And I forgot to add that the tiny fried green chile for the sandwiches was the tastiest green chile this New Mexican has had so far this year! Ah, and the dosas are just wonderful - quite a variety - and included with the buffet (so are the naan). Curry Leaf also has a good variety of beers and some wines. Service is polite and friendly and omnipresent without being intrusive in a comfortable room where a group, a couple or a few friends can always find seating. If you've not tried Curry Leaf, you're missing out.

This place was mind blowing good. This was our first visit to Storming Crab, and after today, it…read morewill become a regular visit for us. We initially decided on this place because they offered oysters on a half shell. I figured they would be small oysters, but no, these oysters reminded me of the size of gulf oysters. The oyster dish came with all of the fixings, horseradish sauce, cocktail sauce, tabasco sauce, lemons, and crackers. I enjoyed every single bite. We ordered a seafood boil dish combo #2 that came with Dungeness Crab Legs, shrimp, clams, sausage, red potatoes, and corn in a crab house cajun sauce with heat level medium spicy. The boil came out just as I finished my last oyster. I failed to take a picture of the beautiful seafood dish before us. Plan to get messy with this place. They put down paper on the table when arriving, and they give gloves and a bib to wear. I took off all of my rings and I got busy cracking and peeling. The cajun garlic butter sauce was so flavorful. I couldn't get enough of it. I swept and dipped my seafood pieces around in it until I could scoop up enough to enjoy with every bite. Our server was attentive to our needs, and the bathroom was clean upon my visit. I didn't mind the walls and poles that were written on. It added its own character.

Server was great although it took forever because he seemed to be the only one for all the tables…read morewhich was about 7. We got the boil added clams and black mussels more then half the mussels were unopened which we saved let them know. "We can cook them more was the response we got" If you know anything about shellfish you should know If mussels don't open when you cook them, the usual rule is: don't eat them. * Most of the time: a mussel that stays closed after cooking was already dead before cooking, and that can make it unsafe to eat. * Food safety rule: toss any that don't open after being fully cooked. So absolutely not and risk getting sick I complained said I want them removed do you think they removed them NO they still charged us for half when I had 14 mussels sitting there unopened. It was crazy do not come here the food is decent but they obviously do not care about customer satisfaction or food safety.

Pool has TOO MUCH CHLORINE in it. My husband and child jumped out after only a few minutes and their eyes were on fire! We had to rinse them over and over w water and rinse immediately in a shower. It smelled like straight bleach. The posted hours at the shops restaurants and pool were not adhered to, seems like they opened/closed wherever they felt like it. The casino is not 24/7. Only on weekends. It's not open until 8 am, they have the whole casino blocked off and every morning when we were leaving before 8 am they gave us a hard time when we wanted to leave the casino and walk to the parking structure to get our car. They literally argued w us about leaving trying to discourage us until I said, "You can't keep us here! We are leaving, so you better walk us out then." They acted really upset that they had to walk us through an empty casino/hotel to the parking. They failed to mention this upon check in. The only restaurant that was decent was the sports bar. We came here to enjoy the pool, restaurants and casino, paying a lot more than other places, and it was a terrible stay. We will never come back.

I have visited Tamashi a few times and and just now getting to my review…read more I want to preface this by saying that they should have a five star review, but finish my reading this and you will see why. It is not the biggest restaurant, and is popular, so I would recommend being prepared to wait during "popular busy time" but it is so worth the wait. So I also recommend waiting. The staff is always pretty friendly and accommodating. I shared an app, a roll and an order of salmon sashimi with a friend on both visits. The food is always fresh, and delicious! I never feel like I am being overcharged for what I get either. Going to eat for sushi can feel like that sometimes. The quality of the food is great and everything is always aesthetically pleasing as well. I had their avocado bomb on my last visit and I was delightfully surprised with it. I like avocado in most cases, but sometimes, it can be a lot at one. I thought this was going to be like that when I saw it, but I was wrong. I look forward to getting one of these on my next visit! On my last visit my friend and I saved room for a dessert, one that we saw rotating on their screens that they have in the restaurant showcasing some of the menu items. It was a take on a bananas foster. It looked delicious but alas, we'll see if we can manage to get it next time. Note to self, have dessert first on next visit?

We start with being overjoyed to find a dinner buffet, which is really rare among restaurants…read moreserving Indian cuisine in Burque. We had many options, vegan and meatish, and tried almost all of them between us. Real standouts were Butter Chicken, Goat Curry, Cabbage with peas (which was way more spicy and flavorful than its name implies), and garlic naan. The absolute star, though, was the Saag Paneer, which was the single best version of this dish we have ever eaten. The dining room is spacious and well decorated, our booth was cozy and comfortable, the high backs giving a sense of privacy in the dining, and the noise level was low enough that we could actually have a conversation. This is one absolute advantage of the older building over more modern design. The staff were pleasant and helpful across the board, and just to round out the review, the bathrooms were spotless and classy to the point of lavish. This is definitely a restaurant worth coming for a sit-down-take-your-time dinner. We will absolutely return.
