I was talking to a friend about reasons to visit Renton and one of the things that reached my mind…read morewas Feast Buffet. Located in the Renton Shopping Center near Fred Meyer, this buffet has really surpassed the test of time. I remember coming here when I was a kid during important family events, however I think the last time I came was around 10 years ago! I think it's pretty safe to say that things have remained consistent over the past many years. To be honest, I'm not a big buffet person - I feel like the quality of the food is often traded for quantity and at my big age I really cannot force myself to eat more than like 2-3 plates of food anymore. But I will say, Feast definitely exceeded my expectations! It has a lot of great asian choices, as well as options for children/people with different palates! I've was a huge fan of the sushi/seafood options, especially the salmon sashimi they had. It was SO fatty I had so many bowls of it. There wasn't really anything that disappointed me, though the crab/lobster line was long (as expected). Staff were kind, and were pretty consistent in clearing out my table and I thought everything was pretty clean! Honestly I'm tempted to return (maybe for lunch since it's cheaper) but I do think that Feast Buffet is definitely a gem of Renton.

Feast Buffet or East (not King lol) Buffet?! IYKYK…read more I was on travel to work with a team up in Renton, WA, and they went out for a lunch buffet here during my time up there. I was intrigued at the name Feast Buffet, but moreso because I had been to an East Buffet the previous year close to where I live, hence the first line of this review. Feast Buffet is located in Renton Shopping Center on the west side of Rainier south of Sunset. If you know where the Fred Meyer is here, Feast Buffet is on the opposite end of the plaza. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by a rather spacious lobby where you can see a TV that shows the pricing for both lunch and dinner. We went on a weekday at lunchtime, which is the cheapest option at $24.99 per adult. Weekend lunches are almost 50% higher, but the same price as dinner on Mondays thru Thursdays. If our team had gone for dinner on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, we'd be spending an additional $20 more per adult! The lobby also had some nice decor. Even though I posted this review in January (I was on a brief review hiatus), our visit was back in November, and they had some snowmen decor by the right wall as well as a Christmas tree by the check-in counter. The selection is incredible! Much more than what I was expecting that I circumnavigated the buffet area like a labyrinth. I was hoping to start off with salad, but accidentally started off with some cold seafood before I was able to find the salad bar. Don't forget to grab some utensils! They're located by the salad bar. Our team sat at a side dining area akin to a banquet hall with a huge TV on the end closer to the front door. We were on the far corner, and one of the TVs was not functioning, unfortunately. There are three drink dispensers in the beverage section, but I made the mistake of getting a coffee cup for a Pepsi Zero Sugar LOL. There are taller blue cups that I should have gotten instead, but one of my tablemates noticed a leak in her cup and informed a staff member about it. As with any buffet, one of my grievances is that they spread themselves too thin that the quality of some of the foods is sacrificed, and that is the case here, though not nearly as much, fortunately enough. Only the Mac & Cheese was the most forgettable after my first two plates; I probably would have preferred the macaroni sitting on the top layer of the heating well. The fruits were also not fresh, though I can't say I was expecting them to be. Otherwise, most other food items were good enough for buffet standards. As I was getting some sushi, I got some wasabi, but didn't see soy sauce. When I asked a sushi chef where the soy sauce was, he replied that it was on the tables albeit in a rather condescending manner. Okay, so my bad on neglecting to notice the first time, but this is how I get treated as a visitor from out of state?! I got some cuts of meat at the same time, but one of them was full of fat and/or gristle! The noodle bar stood out to me most because I don't ever recall seeing a noodle bar at any other buffet! It's kind of similar to the Mongolian BBQ station where you select your raw toppings and hand them to the chef, who cooks them for you. In the case of this noodle bar, you select from one of four broths: Wonton, Udon, Beef Brisket, and Tonkotsu. Just let the chef know which of these four broths you'd like, and they'll cook it for you! One drawback with this station is that if there are multiple customers' ramen bowls being cooked simultaneously, you may end up grabbing someone other customer's bowl. I also got to try some cotton candy, and that's only because as I was walking by the desserts section, there was an employee finishing up a cotton candy. Since there was no other customer nearby, I simply waited until she handed me the cotton candy. Otherwise, there will be a stand with holes that will hold the cotton candies. And for the (real) dessert, I went with a small bowl of cookies & cream ice cream. I made the mistake of attempting to open a stationary glass panel, thinking it was a sliding door of an ice cream chest LOL. An employee noticed, and I had to tell her which ice cream I wanted, though I also had to ask her what the flavors were since I didn't see any flavor labels. Ice cream was pretty good! Good way to round out a decent lunch buffet! One thing I didn't like was how inconsistently non-punctual they were at picking up plates. I know I shouldn't be comparing, but there was a time when I had three empty plates next to me that weren't picked up! Yet after my first plate, I saw it was taken away when I came back for seconds. Overall, I enjoyed my visit to Feast Buffet, and I would prefer Feast Buffet over East Buffet even though I actually gave both the same rating. However, East Buffet is lower than a 4.0, but I'd rate Feast Buffet higher than a 4.0, though not that much higher to earn the 5th star. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a feast of a buffet, look no further than Feast Buffet!

Those that dine near a window will have a row of tables practically stacked on top of you. What we noticed right away is that the waiters were all wearing dirty aprons...even dirty clothes. This made us worry about the situation in the kitchen. We didn't get sick, so that's a plus. The crab cake was not good, just mushy. The Salmon was good, but the vegetable medley on the plate was way overcooked. The Sea bass was covered in butter and had no real flavor. Unfortunately, we won't return.

I go here every few months and it always surprises me how good quality the sushi and sashimi is…read more There are so many options to choose from and they are very quick at their service. The workers are also very nice, (shout out Sissi) and will take customer feedback seriously. Only feedback I have is that they give you too much sushi for each order so it makes it harder to try different kinds, and there should be an evolving/rotating menu. The vibes here are also amazing, the music being played is always good too. Seeing how far this place has grown from their first opening to now is inspiring and they always strive to treat the customers well. Lunch pricing during the weekdays is a steal too! Only $26 makes it so good and filling for the whole day that you do not need anything else. Overall, I highly recommend Sushi%AYCE for its value, service, and vibes.

Great experience meeting with friends in Seattle for lunch!…read more Parking was a bit challenging but we found a spot around the corner from the restaurant. $6.00 + service fee for 2 hours versus street parking $5 per hour. Since we went during lunch at about 1pm, it wasn't very crowded at all which was great for us. All you can eat $25 per person or ala cart. Sushi was delicious! Fresh! Waiter was super fast and timely! They have a bar for drinks if interested. See attached pics for sushi rolls.

Came with my best friend on Saturday night! Definitely go a bit earlier or it will be super busy…read more The only thing I don't really like is such a small space and we all so close to each other. Like so close that I could smell the breath from the guy next to me. Smh and it's really hard to get in and out the seats. Other than that, all the food and quality are amazing! They are so fresh and yummy! You get to choose 15 items every 15 mins. They are such a big portion that we only filled 5 rounds. I highly recommend to just order sashimi so it won't fill you up quick like with the rice. The sabu sabu is perfect for the ending of the meal! Overall I need to go back again and again!!!

I'm really disappointed with our experience at SUMO All You Can Eat. The restaurant was almost…read moreempty when we visited on a Tuesday around lunchtime, yet the staff still seated us -- two adults and a 9-month-old baby -- at a tiny two-person table right next to the restroom entrance. It was cramped, uncomfortable, and honestly not an appropriate spot for a family with a baby when there were plenty of other open tables available. On top of that, we had to carry and set up the high chair ourselves, and it was covered in greasy stains and grime. We had to wipe it down ourselves before our baby could even use it. The whole experience felt careless and unwelcoming. Basic cleanliness and seating consideration for families should not be this difficult, especially during a slow period with almost no customers.

With several locations in the greater seattle area, my friends and I stopped by recently for dinner. They have two different prices for dinner -- $27 vs. $33, my friends and I opted for the $33 since that came with Sashimi. You collectively order on an app, about 15 items every 15 minutes. Food either gets brought out by servers or little robots, and there's a hot bar with different fried fruits, veggies, and sweets for while you wait! My personal favorites were the seared salmon and salmon sashimi, my friends and I got a ton of those. We ordered a few rolls as well, however everything came out a bit staggered and we weren't really sure what rolls we were eating. For an AYCE restaurant, I appreciated how attentive the service was! I feel like our table was checked on frequently, we had our drinks refilled often, and everyone was kind. Definitely coming back here!

I had a great hope to come here for seafood boil. The staff here seemed to be friendly and polite…read more But the management is terrible here. The kitchen seemed to be no one in it, the only two server had to walk through all store, and the second round of all you can eat seafood boil took almost 40mins. Although the server sincerely apologized, but it is still very confusing that why seafood boils could take that long time. The chowder was great, but it didn't come with crackers. Also about the flavors, cajun garlic is too sweet, Thai chili and house special similar with a sour & spicy taste. The house special is too sweet. They seem use frozen seafood and the second round of seafood had some smell. The first round had way too much small crab legs. The floor is a little bit sticky. And it seems that they don't have a drink menu. I hope they could do better because I really like seafood and hope there are more great seafood restaurants in Seattle. So, I still give a 3 stars rating for encouraging them to do better.

Finally getting around to completing my review…read more Hubby and I went before a Seahawks game and were very disappointed in the long wait time for a simple drink more than the wait time for a table. One of the two people behind the bar was brand new to being a bartender. I know it's hard to find employees they days but it was ridiculous to have someone brand new serving on game day. If you're going to do this I suggest a limited drink menu. Bottles & cans of beer and simple mixed drinks that don't take long to make. And for the wait for a table a couple that arrived after us was seated before us. As mentioned before a wait time sign would be a good idea. Also the host kept leaving the host stand and people would simply walk in. A sign saying wait to be seated would be good. Finally on to the food. The fish of the fish and chips were very small. More like nuggets than filets of fish. I had asked for an extra tartar sauce when placing our order and didn't receive it. Had to flag down a server to get another. Also ordered water we never received. The fried shrimp were tasty and while the bed of greens was a nice touch since we didn't receive silverware and there wasn't dressing it was a complete waste. I pointed out the trip hazard to a manger and she did cover it with a rug. This was a good temporary solution but watch out as your leaving that you don't trip.

This is the second buffet I've visited, located in Redmond. There weren't too many customers at…read morelunchtime, but the food was fresh, and at first glance, nothing looked unappetizing. Environment: Redmond is very close to Bellevue, with many big tech companies nearby, so the local spending power is high. As a result, the environment is naturally not an issue. The buffet area is clean and well‑organized, with clearly separated sections: Japanese food, hot dishes, salad, fruit, steamed dim sum, and Western food. The clientele here is noticeably more diverse than at the buffet I visited in Auburn - clearly thanks to the greater variety of food. The seating is spacious. Overall, a big plus. Service: Nothing stood out about the service, except that the staff cleared plates promptly. I think a buffet restaurant should proactively ask customers about their dining experience in order to adjust the menu and introduce new items. After all, constant renewal and innovation are a restaurant's promotional tools. Taste / Food: Steak - The first thing I tried from the Chinese food section. The beef quality wasn't outstanding; it was cooked well‑done and a bit too salty. Not recommended. Sushi - The salmon sushi was fresh. For the Arctic surf clam sushi, each piece came with two slices of clam, but the nori overpowered the delicate flavour of the clam - not recommended. Cantonese steamed dim sum - The shrimp dumplings (har gow) were pre‑made / semi‑finished products. As I've mentioned before, if a restaurant doesn't make them from scratch, using a good semi‑finished product actually becomes a matter of trust. If a good restaurant carefully selects a high‑quality pre‑made product, I think most customers can accept it. The steamed ginger & scallion beef tripe was tender, with a balanced saltiness - recommended. The steamed purple rice cake was also a semi‑finished product, but it was slightly undercooked. Hot dishes - The total number of raw ingredients used in the hot dishes was no more than 15 SKUs, often combined in predictable ways. I tried beef with broccoli, plain stir‑fried broccoli, celery with shrimp, etc. The wok work wasn't particularly impressive. Fruit - When fruit sits out for too long, it oxidises - for example, pineapple and cantaloupe. I was a bit disappointed to see mango pudding in the fruit section. The strawberries were good. Final thoughts: As someone who used to work in the restaurant industry, the key to making a buffet stand out is actually product selection (choice of dishes and ingredients). The profit model of a buffet isn't a secret, so finding great suppliers and competitive purchasing prices becomes critical. The dining experience at a buffet is similar to hot pot - we give the choice to the customers, and they decide for themselves. That's why product selection is even more important for a buffet's competitiveness. Overall, the whole buffet experience is very enjoyable. All in all, recommend
