Customer Reviews
I stopped by this buffet restaurant for the first time today while passing through, and it was an absolute disaster from start to finish. Right at the entrance, an aggressive employee immediately began pushing me to purchase some discount or club membership card, being incredibly insistent despite my clear statement that I only wanted dinner and nothing more. The food quality hovered between a 2 and 3 out of 5—some items were edible, while others were completely impossible to eat. The thinly sliced fried beef was absolutely disgusting. The fish and shrimp were okay, but the desserts in plastic cups were tasteless, and the fruit—especially the pre-cut oranges—were dried out and clearly hadn't been fresh for days... Then the waiter brought a $28.13 bill and told me I'd be charged double if I
Omni Buffet is one of those places that instantly feels inviting the moment you walk in — bright, spacious, and full of energy. The variety here is honestly unmatched. Every station is constantly refreshed, and nothing ever sits too long or dries out. Whether you’re in the mood for sushi, fresh seafood, grilled meats, or classic comfort dishes, everything looks (and tastes) freshly made. The staff deserves special mention — they’re always nearby but never intrusive. Plates disappear from your table like magic, and any spills or clutter are cleaned up before you even think about it. They really keep the place spotless, which is impressive given how busy it can get. And the best part? The price. For what you get — this much selection, quality, and attentive service — it’s a great deal. Per
The place appears clean and the people are nice. That’s pretty much where the good ends. The food is not good. Like it’s objectively just bad. Like it’s too salty or has been sitting out too long and just old looking and then tasteless. It wasn’t the great experience I was hoping for when I saw a buffet Asian Cajun place. And I’m Creole btw but I was absolutely not approaching this in a snobby way. I just wanted food that didn’t taste bad. The bar wasn’t set high. I think people come here to feed their families till they pop and are ok with the food as is. Little kids don’t know better and if you’re a family on a budget you do what you have to do.
As for the relationship between quality and price, I don't think it's a good option. I am not of such a demanding palate but I did not like the food, many of the meats were either dry or tasteless, the only thing I found pleasant overall were all the sushi cuts. Without it being a bad experience, I would never go again.
The food selection was a bit limited when I first arrived. Many dishes seemed like they had been sitting out for too long—they looked mushy and didn't taste very fresh. Luckily, I only took a small bite of each at first! 😂 However, I was glad they brought out a fresh batch later. I absolutely loved the squid, cabbage, and steamed fish! At just $13.99 for lunch, I would definitely come back again just for those three dishes.
