Located on the expanding Independence expressway, the parking lot can sometimes be difficult to get into, but the overall location is fairly ideal. The décor is modern and comparatively stylish, there are no cheesy Asian wallpaper or cheap paper lanterns. It is kept neat and clean and the service is decent.
The regular buffet selection is pretty good but the hibachi selection is even better. Their chefs are willing to cater to reasonable requests. Don't pile items on your plate during your first pass just based on looks. Take small samples and find out what you like best. The staff is very efficient at removing your finished plates. I recommend the grilled salmon, the crawfish, the Maryland-style crabs, the grilled pork chops and the beef with broccoli. The mussels are okay but very small, the BBQ ribs are adequate and the frog legs are not bad, but also not great. Taste everything before you season it. A lot of the grilled meats are already a little salty.
The sushi is very good for a buffet-style restaurant and continuously prepared throughout lunch and dinner. The tempura and California rolls were fresh and the spicy salmon and tuna were good with some wasabi and soy added. The seaweed salad is excellent and they have a couple of sashimi options as well. The sushi is not as fancy and first rate as a proper sushi restaurant, but if you are craving a lot of sushi at a baseline price, I definitely recommend it. They also offer a take-out option priced by the pound. Stay away from heavy sauces and bone-in meats and the cost will be comparable to standard takeout.
