| - My parents took me here recently. This place is huge and the food is so awesome!
We went on a Tuesday for lunch ($15.99/person) and got there at 11:45am. The place was not too busy. Neither the Wok nor Teppanyaki stations had a line up.
This buffet is a bit different from other all-you-can eat buffets in that they have a Wok station where you pick out your raw ingredients and then bring it to the Wok station and choose a sauce, then they will stir fry it up for you right there (like a Mongolian Grill kind of place). They also have regular buffet items, a small sushi section, a salad bar, soup section, desserts, scoop ice cream and soft serve ice cream. The price of the buffet includes non-alcoholic beverages which you get yourself either from the small fridges or from the soda and juice foundations. Alcoholic cocktails are dirt cheap at $2.99 each (I didn't have one, so can't say if they are good or not).
The Wok station was my favourite. I went 3 times. I couldn't believe that they have straw mushrooms (I so love straw mushrooms). They also have shitake mushrooms, chicken, beef, shrimp, Basa fish, squid, fried tofu and lots of veggies (broccoli, green and red peppers, zucchini, bok choy, baby corn, bean sprouts, and others). Their noodle choices were egg noodles and udon. They have about 7 different types of sauces to choose from. I tried the Wok sauce, Kung Pao sauce, and Black Pepper sauce. The Wok sauce was my favourite (really flavourful and not spicy).
Their sushi selection is small and was ok but nothing remarkable. Their hot items were good. I liked the Teriyaki chicken (not too salty like at most places), calamari (tender and not rubbery), and dim sum items (especially the shrimp har gow). Unfortunately, the General Tao chicken was too dry and hard, as were their french fries. Loved the coconut ice cream (rich and creamy), cream puffs (really soft with whipped cream filling) and Neapolitan pastry (custard filling with flaky Phyllo sheets).
The decor is fancy and a little over the top, with huge chandeliers, a baby grand piano on a small circular platform in the middle of the dining area, goldfish pond, water foundation, you get the idea. The place is very spacious. Everything just looks very grand.
The people manning the Wok and Teppanyaki stations were really nice, and they cooked everything to perfection :)
The servers are really efficient at clearing your plates (sometimes too efficient, as I often had a few pieces of food left on my plate and was just taking a break and they came and took my plate away before I could say anything. No big deal for me as I just went and got more). They were also quick with bring the bill when we asked for it.
Excellent food, excellent service and cool decor. In a strip mall so lots of free parking. Loved it. Will be back :)
