This has been THEEEE absolute WORST experience! From the food to the service to the PRICES, I am utterly disgusted, disappointed and down right MAD that I paid a total of $34.33 for some horrible food! First of all, the waitress wasn’t very nice. Her tone showed she was aggravated that she had to host a large party. There was 10 of us, 5 of them being children. We ordered our drinks and went to the food bar. I browsed through and didn’t see much of anything I liked. The food was not fresh, a lot of food looked like it had been sitting for a long time. I got basic stuff like rice because the seafood looked HORRID! From the shrimp to the crab legs with no seasoning, to the salmon that didn’t taste like salmon at all. They have the audacity to have a sign to say “Please only take what you can eat”. The food is NASTY! That’s why it’s being wasted!!! After eating sushi I went to the Habatchi bar and OH EM GEE!! If CROSS CONTAMINATION WAS A HABATCHI BAR! Raw chicken in the noodles, raw shrimp in the already cooked and mushy broccoli, raw beef in the mushrooms, and when he was gathering the trays, WITHOUT GLOVES, to refill the food, he just threw the meat tongs in where the vegetables were and went into the kitchen, WITHOUT GLOVES! When he came back out WITHOUT GLOVES HE THREW THE TONGS IN THE RAW MEAT THE HANDLE PART INSIDE THE RAW MEAT! Like……….i am so sick typing this, i swear the health department needs to go in there and shut that nasty mess down! I encourage you all who may be lookin at the pictures, thinking how delicious the food looks, like I did, and actually considering going to this place, ABORT MISSION NEEEOW! It’s not worth the THOUGHT let alone the visit…In my opinion of course. If u do go, I send prayers to your digestive and immune system….because eating here is risky business. And isn’t it ILLEGAL to charge a “merchant fee” because I’m using my card? Somebody call the AUTHORITIES!
The manager is amazing with customers. I asked her to change my seating location in the restaurant, and she responded immediately. The food is very clean, especially at the sushi bar. I love this buffet and even come all the way from Yorktown, VA, just for it!
Normally when we visit Virginia Beach, we go to a fancier (more expensive) restaurant. This year, we wanted to try something different, so we came here — and now this place will be our new go-to spot whenever we come to Virginia Beach. Highly recommended for everyone!
This was probably one of the best Japanese buffets my girl and I have ever been to. The crab legs were so good and always stocked. The flounder was definitely the best I have ever had and the sushi 🍣 was phenomenal. Highly recommend this place and the staff were super friendly and very accommodating.
