| - Avoid at all possible costs. And here's the crazy part the food was good so I hate to write that, but have you ever been to a place and feel while you're there that you are being taken advantage of? I went with five other people yesterday for Christmas. We had a reservation for seven and though they didn't close until nine the place was nearly empty except for one larger party than ours. After I tried their sushi which was surprisingly good for a Chinese buffet I went over to the steamed tables only to discover that just about everything was nearly empty and I stood there waiting and hoping things would soon be replenished, but except for a woman bringing out a few more ribs (which were delicious) and some General Tso's chicken nothing else was restocked and I swear the whole time we were there this was pretty much the case. Plus the food that was there like for instance the cheese wontons had been sitting there for so long they were at best warm though the ones I tried were cold. When going to Chinese buffets I know not to expect the world or even close to it, but when you're paying $13.99 I do expect at the very least the food will be kept stocked. Not only wasn't it kept stocked, but I actually witnessed the woman breaking items down and poof that item was no longer offered. Now it is seven o'clock and it is Christmas and people are still coming in and you are seating them so how can you just stop restocking the steam tables? They also have Hibachi, but only one of our party was lucky enough to catch this guy at his station. I waited and waited, even asked our waitress and she was clueless. They just didn't care. Oh and I had read in another Yelp review about how they try and quickly move you out which was odd when like I said the place was basically empty so it wasn't like we were taking up valuable real estate, but literally about forty five minutes to an hour into our meal the waitress came over and set all of our bills down and then kept hovering. Seriously? So you want our money and yet WHERE IS THE FOOD??? I just called to complain and the woman who answered the phone when I asked to speak to a manager had no idea what I was saying. Look there has to be at least one person who understands English otherwise how exactly does this work? Oh wait it doesn't. I will say again the little I was able to actually try was good, but to pay $13.99 and then find yourself scavenging for whatever is left after what they must deem their "dinner rush" is unacceptable. The desserts were no better. It was like no one cared. The cakes were either still defrosting or stale and when I asked for a spoon well they weren't stocked either. All the help seemed to want to do was sweep so I guess they could leave, but seven on Christmas or any night when you're not closing until nine is not even close to the time you should start closing down especially when you're still seating people. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! MAYBE then (though I highly doubt it) they'll get a clue that they cannot treat people like this and stay in business for long. I guess this is why they've gone through several owners, from what I understand, over the past few years.
