I seemed to have forgotten why we stopped coming here, and today I remembered why. First time coming back in over a year. I was here with my parents and two small kids.First of all, prices went up as the service and food quality went down. Charging almost $10 for a 3 year old is outrageous! She literally ate 2 pieces of corn and 3 strawberries.The food selection is a lot less than before. There was quite a few things missing since our last visit there.Finally, the service there is the reason for the bad review. During our entire meal the plates kept stacking up and the cups were quickly emptied. Towards the end our waitress finally showed up and cleared the plates and filled our cups. There...
Our server, Wen, was extremely polite and attentive, checking on us multiple times to clear plates and offer refills. We arrived an hour before the dinner rush and found that, despite the restaurant being slightly quiet, the food was still hot and fresh. I started with the black pepper chicken, and while some pieces were a bit too crunchy for my taste, the serving dish was nearly empty by the time I arrived. The egg cups with bacon bits were well cooked and delicious, and we couldn't get enough of the plantains (fried bananas). They were fantastic!
At the front counter, they clearly indicated that the hibachi grill and pho noodle station at the back are currently closed, with no indication...
I do NOT recommend this restaurant:The sofas in the entry way are all shredded apart and give an unwelcoming run down inhospitable look.The food is heavily flavored with MSG, lacks variety, and lacks a quality. Sushi is very poor quality. You can 't even call it sushi. No high chairs given to kids.The food WILL make you sick. Gave us all diarrhea for hours later.Cost: at $90 for 4 adults, you might as well go to a place like Benihanas where at least you 'll be entertained by the cook and not get sick. This restaurant needs to be closed.
This buffet has noticeably improved its food quality and selection, including the desserts, which were quite good. They are doing a great job of replacing old dishes and keeping everything fresh. The service was friendly and prompt. However, the decor is becoming a bit outdated, and some furniture in the entryway could use some attention. Overall, it's a pretty solid deal at $19.89 for all-you-can-eat. The sweet dinner rolls were also delicious and fresh!

Owners and management have given up on this place food was cold in buffet lines last 2x eating here grill was closed because of covid 3 yes ago! They refuse to open it up under different ways! not my waitress was begging a table for more of tip. I have been eating here for over 8yrs i have watched customer base get smaller and smaller over yrs price increases but service decreased and food quality also because of today's visit I will never go back
Atmosphere, Peaceful. Service, hit or miss. Food, not it. Covid really hit this place hard, and I mean REAL hard. Used to love it here. Amazing hibachi chefs, pho station, chocolate fountain, etc. Now food isn't good, plastic plates, utensils, etc. I hope this place recovers and becomes what it once used to be. Precovid it was what I'd say the best buffet in MN.
Ok food, I honestly kinda like it. Other than the fact that I felt like their staff were watching me the WHOLE time. Kinda weird. We left a $15 tip and the lady started demanding more. She said at least a$20 tip. So if you don't care about leaving more than a $20 tip, and don't mind feeling like you're being watched, I recommend.
Please trust me when I say do not go here. Unless you don't care about your health and like to be treated with 0 respect by the staff. Asking someone to tip for two people should be illegal. Shut this place down.

The food is always a good choice. I truly enjoy going here and bringing other people. They have a nice variety. The waitresses can be not kind at times. But that seems to be hit or miss when I go.
There is something on the wall in the boys' bathroom that is really unpleasant, and the food was not good either.
