Absolutely one of the worst dining experiences I've had. Upon entering, the place was questionable. Very hot inside and extremely humid near the buffets. Also appeared very dirty and had a strange smell. We were hungry though so we decided to stay. The tabletops were dirty, and the floor was in dire need of some vacuum attention. Everything was covered in a strange filmy ick. No napkins at our table either.
Waitstaff was ok. Definitely not up to par but not rude and our drinks did mostly stay full.
Food was terrible. Sunday afternoon lunch rush should mean good, fresh food on the buffet line right? Not for us. Everything was clearly old- either recooked or sat on the buffet for hours and it wasn't hot. Lukewarm at best. Rice and noodles had a very strange taste- like old oil from fryers. Chicken was tough and very obviously old. Wontons were chewy and weird textured. My spring roll was ok, but too oily. There wasn't very much selection to choose from in terms of not seafood items either, though they did have some scary looking frog legs. The fresh fruit on the fruit buffet was lacking in color. The sushi bar is right in line with the front door and it is prepared in an area that isn't closed off from customers walking by.
The only pleasant part of my experience was upon leaving, when I walked by the window ac unit and felt some cool breeze. We were also grossly overcharged- not in terms of I'm dissatisfied therefore I shouldn't have to pay that much/it wasn't worth that amount but they actually charged us for a few extra people after looking at what my credit card was charged vs what my receipt said. Avoid this place if at all possible.
