| - I got my friend to come here with me after I had read that people were raving about this place. We went on a weekday for lunch and got seated right away. After getting drinks, we set off for their buffet. I was expecting to get my sushi fix but boy was I disappointed. There were only 3 types of sushi available at this one station where someone was making sushi. Not that I mind Chinese food, but at least 95% of the buffet was Chinese food so if you ask me, their name "Buffet Sushi Bar" is extremely misleading.
Good thing we came here during their discounted lunch special because I didn't eat as much as I was expecting to. They had the usual stir-fried items you'd find at a Chinese buffet, a cold seafood bar, a section of deep fried things, soups, and desserts. Their stir-fried and deep fried items were ok but the sushi was sub-par. The veggie and shrimp tempura were big and fresh, something that came as a pleasant surprise at a buffet.
After dining here, I'm not sure I quite understand what the big hype was all about. For starters, all the glorious sushi and sashimi I see in the pictures were non-existent. I'm guessing they downsized drastically to accommodate the promo. For the price we paid, I would say the value was definitely there but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here again.
