Description

This Bloomington buffet aims to be more than just a Chinese restaurant; it also ambitiously offers 16 kinds of sushi. Skip the sushi. It doesn't taste fresh, it doesn't taste like fish, and it doesn't in any way satisfy that primal longing for sushi that fans are occasionally struck by. That said, the menu has some hits, too. The Tokyo Chicken (a teriyaki chicken dish that works well with white rice) was a nicely executed contrast of sweet and salty. Also good was the mei fun, a delicate bundle of spider-web-thin noodles enriched by tiny shrimp. Skewered chicken breasts served with cherry tomatoes were also reasonably tasty, and actually boasted a bit of carbon char. The restaurant is relatively affordable and all-you-can-eat, so stick to the safe choices and you'll walk away happy.

    I've had dinner here before and it was not good then. I like to try a place more than once before I review it.

    This place was NASTY. The hot food was not hot, the spicy food was boring, the sushi had way too much sauce on it, the cold food was warm, the pineapple was not ripe and the staff is more often than not, just in the way.

    It's just a nasty experience. Add to this their nasty clients and you get a $16/person nightmare. Gross trailer trash clients, overweight and smelly. And the BABIES!!! OMG leave your offspring at home or don't go out you trashy gross people with your illness and ever ejaculating welfare sex organs.

    The fish is not fresh. It stinks of mild decay. The seafood has a mild bleach taste. This is NOT what seafood should taste like.

    The beef is tough, the chicken tastes old, the fruit is all pale, and some of the plates are not clean.

    I think they use MSG because each time I've left with a tightened jaw and a queasy feeling in my stomach.

    Just go away 98 pounds, you suck...you suck terribly.
