[edit] Reviews

"This is a very popular 'All you can eat' place with the following items on their buffet:

A small salad area including only a few items. They do have Kimchi that is pretty good. This area also features chilled oysters and mussels. The evening menu also has chilled snow crab clusters.

The sushi area has about 6 or seven types of sashimi available, including salmon, tuna, escolar, yellow tail, baby octopus, mackerel, clam, eel and Salmon Roe gunkenzushi.

At the end of the sashimi row, there is always large bite sized pieces of the fish items for those who like the plain fish or just want more on each bite.

Then there are the rolls. There are usually about 10 types of rolls available and all are very popular and tasty.

Each diner is asked which of 4 types of hot appetizers they would like. Grilled Shrimp, Grilled Scallops, Beef and Chicken are the choices and are served with grilled vegetables. This is included in the AYCE price of $18.99 US.

The hot food area includes about 10 types of dish including two or three types of shrimp, frog legs, beef and vegetables, tempura chicken, tempura vegetables, hot snow crab clusters, Baked Salmon, Black Bean Mussels, Duck, and a couple that change almost each time.

Two or three types of soup are available with the appropriate garnish.

The waiting staff all speak very good English and I've always had good service. They also have a full bar.

This is a once per/week visit for me. For the type of place, I give it a 9 out of 10. I've deducted one point because they always lag about a half hour after opening before all of the sushi items are presented. I've learned not to go there until the second hour that they're open. " - Fisherman
