    I had a 15 percent off coupon and has seen some good reviews here on Yelp so I decided to give this place a shot. The snow shrimp, whatever that is, was delicious and some sort of wonton on steroids was wonderful. However,overall I was a bit disappointed. The broccoli and beef was tasteless and dry and the broccoli itself was mushy. I saw no hibachi at all and what they called sushi was an assortment of California rolls with 6 pieces of sashimi available. Overall I would have still enjoyed my visit had I not been visited by two live ants on my table during the middle of my meal. I called the waiter over and he killed one with his bare thumb on my table and did not wipe it up afterwards! He offered to move me and I thought it was probably just a freak thing so I stayed in the seat. Until I was visited by live ant number 2. Again the waiter came over and squashed it with his finger and did not wipe down the table. This time I asked to move to a different table. They were very polite and nice but it did not make up for the fact that there were ants on my dinner table. In the new booth I saw dead knats in the window seal which I also pointed out to the waiter. I told him I thought I was done and he brought me my check. I asked him if he wanted to do any sort of compensation for having bugs on my table and he offered me 15% off which I already had with the coupon I brought. So I asked to speak to the manager who went over and looked at the table and looked at the knats and apologized. He did not however, offer me any kind of discount. To my surprise this was totally acceptable. So I paid my tab even give a tip. My tip to you is expect unexpected bugs and expect to pay for it.

    Just ate there for lunch and we're very happy we did. Food is served in a pleasant, quiet atmosphere. Servers were attentive & efficient. Price was surprisingly low for the quality & quantity of the meal. We will certainly be back. :)

    Stopped into this brand new Buffet to give it a try for lunch today, joined by Robyn N. It's very nice inside and the staff members were warm and caring throughout our visit. From the big selection of 103 items plus sauces & dressings I started with some Hot & Sour Soup, then salad with all the usual toppings plus some tasty Sushi, zingy Kim Chee, and some nice garlicy seaweed, the stringy bright green kind. Over at the Mongolian style BBQ I loaded up a plate from the good selection of veggies, some garlic, red chili, 2 scoops of Mongolian Sauce and four kinds of meat, including nice large shrimp. The chef cooked it up to perfection and it was really good! Among the many familiar hot dishes were particularly good Egg Foo Young with Gravy and one treat I don't think I've seen anywhere else, Lemon Chicken. They're doing everything right here and at this price point it was 5 Stars for sure... really liked it! :-)) Weekday Lunch Buffet: $7.39/$6.65 Sr.

    Awsome! Best buffet yet! Very attutive staff, very clean booths,tables, bathrooms and walls. Staff is constantly bringing out fresh food even if the tray is not empty. Food quality is also great typical asian menu with better quality.

    This is the second time I have visited this buffet. It has been very good each time. Everything is always fresh and hot. The lemon chicken is sensational. The snow shrimp (coconut shrimp) is nicely flavored and the shrimp cooked perfectly. The hot and sour soup is decent. Overall for the price a great deal.

    I have been a fan of the Pacific Seafood Buffet in Chandler for years and was excited to hear about a new competitor in Mesa! My wife and I tried them out a few days ago, a good piece out in east Mesa. It was a Friday evening about 6pm and I expected them to be very busy but they were almost empty. They are located close to the local retirement community and mostly seniors were eating there. It's clean and bright and service is attentive. The staff regularly refreshed the food trays and someone was always sweeping the floor. The food area was about half the size of Pacific Seafood and their sushi section was a lot smaller. We went there especially for the sushi and were a bit disappointed at the variety. The sashimi was fresh and basically salmon and tuna, tasted very good but a lot of the sides we enjoy were lacking. The rolls were nice, 3 different types. No nigiri, no kimchi, no various Japanese salad items were to be found. I thought the hot and sour soup didn't have much flavor or heat like that of PSB. The steamed salmon didn't have much taste. The best hot seafood dish there was wonderful tiny "Snow Shrimp". The sesame balls were dry and practically empty and the soft ice cream was rather icy. The lemon chicken was tart and dry. I'm sorry to say I won't be back. The food overall was rather mediocre. At least it was several dollars less than my favorite PSB. This kind of food becomes a very personal taste and I think you should give them a try, you just might like it like many have!!!

    This place is brand new so the area is still really clean. Is it weird that I noticed that first? Anyway, we were seated quickly and the waitress was nice and spoke Chinese (we spoke Chinese back don't worry.. the point I'm making is that there is a high degree of authenticity here). Food looked fresh and delicious and not like it had been sitting out for a long length of time. Everything was delicious but they get 5 stars for excellent sushi and oysters. There oysters are seriously good quality for the price. I'd expect o pay $10 for a half dozen. So if you like fresh seafood, this is the place to go. Everything else here is just pretty good and standard buffet food but the seafood gives it 5 stars and makes it better than Pacific Buffet.

    Let me start by saying that we are not food snobs, don't have the most sophisticated palates, and are pretty easy to please. However, I'm not sure how there are so many 4 and 5 star reviews for this place. My wife and I went there for dinner tonight and were very disappointed. First the good: the restaurant appeared clean, was attractively furnished, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The bad: maybe we picked a bad time to go but almost everything was clearly old, soggy, stale, rubbery, dry, or whatever particular problem that item gets when it's been out on a steam table for hours. The ugly: before we even left the restaurant, we BOTH had explosive diarrhea. Awful, horrible diarrhea. We compared notes and it turns out that there was nothing that we both ate there. We have pretty different tastes in Chinese food. We can only conclude that more than one of the dishes served this evening was tainted with something. Maybe this was a one time thing. We'll never know. We won't be back.

    Terrible. Just terrible. No flavor. The only thing good was deep fried dough balls in sugar. The snow shrimp was good. Overall if I could give it 0 stars I would. Barf.

    In my experience,all chinese buffets start out good and then deteriorate,like the previous occupants of this space.These folks are new and ,right now ,they are VERY GOOD. They were not busy ,and normally ,that being true ,I'd drive by,but I pulled in.Seated right away,staff seemed engaged.Priced moderately for lunch .Large Sushi display and Mongolian grill ,neither my thing so no comment .The rest was very good,all the standards ,the only fail being the egg foo young(flavorless,even with gravy) I like condiments and the hot mustard had more heat than the wasabi,strange but true.Staff clears away debris right away,and the carpet is still clean.I hope they get busy and stay good.Right now I'd return and recommend.BTW,even though the restaurant was lightly populated ,they had a steady stream of take out customers,so I'm not the only one that thinks they are doing good stuff right now .

    This is by far the best buffet in the east valley. The food is fantastic I will be eating here more often. I suggest you come in give it a try and see for yourself. A lot of the sauces that they have to put on the food is homemade. Definitely worth the trip.

    I do not know how this place has a 5 star rating, only reason I went here, but clearly just friends of the owner doing reviews, first Chinese buffet where I didn't finish at least half of my 2 plates, sushi was horrible and everything else was either old or gross, best item was the rice, I'll stick to Panda Express where I've never been disappointed

    We decided to try this place on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. For the price, ($6.65 seniors), we give it 4 stars. For The food, which is average, we give 3 stars. There are several seafood offerings (mussels, salmon, white fish, shrimp) and I was surprised the cost was so low. Although the stir fry selection was displayed, there was no one tending the station the entire time we were there. Sushi selection was minimal yet sufficient. Biggest complaint is most of the chicken dishes were deep fried, no doubt to fill up the customer. Most of the pans were full and there were a few that had been sitting too long and dried up. There 7 different stalls to choose from; salads, 2 stalls of hot food, soups and 2 choices of diem sum, sushi, seafood and desserts. The wait staff are pleasant and clear your dishes quickly from the table. We would return if we needed to gorge ourselves.

    I went there today with my "blind" friend & his seeing eye dog. The manager tried to make us sit in the furthest corner booth, away from the food; after first telling us we could not have the dog in the restaurant! I refused to be seated so far away & requested to sit closer so that I could get my friend to & from the food easier. Other customers asked what the issue was& I told them. They were all just as discusted as I was. I will tell ALL my friends about this restaurant & I guarantee they will tell their friends. I will NEVER go there again!! Worst experience ever!!!

    It's pretty new so it feels pretty clean inside. That's always a plus at a buffet like this. Most of the dishes taste like your average Asian buffet food. As other have mentioned, the snow shrimp (a sort of lightly fried shrimp in a sweet coconut sauce) is amazing, it's by far the best thing I've ever eaten at an Asian buffet. I could go there just for plates of that stuff. The soups are all good, the wontons and potstickers are good. The sushi isn't all the great. The rice just doesn't have the right taste or texture. They also have a hibachi area where you can choose your own stir fry items and they'll cook it for you. I've never done it but it looks pretty good. The dessert station leaves a bit to be desired, but that's not really what you go there for. It's really my go-to place when I want Chinese food but can't decide what I would order. I give the overall buffet 3 stars.... but that snow shrimp alone adds an extra star.

    The food is amazing as well the service. Im not a big fan of their mushrooms nor shrimp. Im not one to judge on fish because i find it disgusting. Very elegant and tasteful place. Great for the family or yourself!

    My boyfriend and I stopped in last night. Very good buffet!! Every item we tasted (which was many) was perfectly cooked. All hot items were kept hot. There were so many things to choose from. The servers were amazing. Got us our drinks and kept the coffee hot for my boyfriend. Very friendly and on top of everything. The restaurant is very clean. We definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back.
