| - I was in the Burgh for the weekend, and had heard about a newer Asian buffet in my part of town. I'd never been to Tambellini's on 51, so had no idea what building to look for, the Misaki signage was bright, (next to the Thrift Store) if you need another point of reference, and easy to find.
The interior flashes me back to the old Mob movies, but the buffet layout of Asian food, and sushi had my stomach growling. For lunch time on a weekday, the offerings were very standard Chinese buffet fare, nothing overly impressive. The sushi station, and seafood (baked salmon), crab legs, and chilled shrimp put this buffet a notch above some others.
Our server was great at keeping our drinks replenished, and dirty plates cleared away. I overheard other diners complain about the prime rib being cold, and the steam table looking barren, which the kitchen took care of. It seems there's still a few things being worked out, but I was okay with my visit.
