Fresh and great selection, staff was friendly and the food was very tasty I especially liked the sushi. Wasn't a huge selection but good.

It's very expensive for what it is, but it's decent. The food is pretty bland and surprisingly stale, even when you get there right after it's cooked. I believe we were charged $25 per person, plus tip on top of that. We came on the weekend, so there was seafood on offer - issue is, I don't eat seafood at buffets, for safety reasons, so I was really being up charged without benefit, which sucks. read more

Stopped in for lunch- some good choices as can be seen on my plates. The hot & sour soup is just right, mushrooms included. The orange chicken was ok, even though the name label said it was General Tso's. The cream cheese purses are excellent! A good variety of sushi, of which they do a good job (although perhaps missing a few?) of labeling what type of sushi it is - of raw or not. For the price, definitely a good place to eat & I will be a regular. I appreciate the $1 discount for seniors The remodeling they did for their restaurant is great, as this used to be an Izzy's. I shall definitely return!! read more

Asian Buffet - A variety of good food! - Buffets Near Me - Kelso, Washington

See all

The food is pretty generic. They do not have an Asian person cooking it so the flavor is not very good and quite a few dishes and it's not crisp to the specifications of a typical Chinese restaurant or Japanese restaurant. The green beans are always overcooked and the general S. chicken is breaded weird the Mongolian beef is chewy beef and not the proper flavor. The hot and sour soup is not very flavorful either and the ingredients are too big. There are a lot of carbohydrates here and not enough vegetables, dishes, beef or seafood. Honestly, if they would hire a proper cooks, this place could be a 3 1/2 4 Star Pl. as of right now it's only a two star. The other problem is one of the Asian waitresses rushes. You out the door after you have two plates even if there's not very much food put on them she brings you, your Bill, which I think is rude. So that is offsetting in my opinion it doesn't make you feel welcome or want to go back often when you're being rushed out the door. read more

Excellent, excellent, excellent food. I wish they were in the Tri-Cities. Best buffet I have ever been to.

All the hot food was cold. Best part of the meal was the soda. If the waitresses were speaking English people would have been more upset but since speaking some Asian language yelling across the room in conversation over the tables seemed OK. Will never go back.... we showed up at 12:15 on a Sunday, bad news was the church crowds didnt come. Guess they knew how bad it was already. read more

Amazing place to stop and eat. Service was great and the staff was nice. Go to Kelso Asian Buffet you will not be disappointed! Restaurant was clean and decor was nice. read more

Asian Buffet - The front - Buffets Near Me - Kelso, Washington

I know exactly what I look for in a good buffet, but did "Asian Buffet" live up to that? Let's talk about the food quality. My expectation is, that it's about as good as any other similar restaurant. I personally did not feel it was up to those standards, especially considering the price and variety. Some food was, most wasn't. But there's a decent variety, so you may load up on the one thing you LOVE, and be satisfied. It wasn't cheap, but I figured that'd be because there was a decent variety of food options, and that they'd be high quality. Plus their pricing isn't clear cut, which could be forgiven for higher quality food. I personally felt the atmosphere was a slight bit above an average buffet. But considering Izzy's used to be in this building, which is hands-down the best buffet I've ever encountered, this still wasn't quite up to those standards. It's also very clean, which is really shocking considering the amount of people, and ranging varieties from families, to just a single person. I actually didn't mind most of the employees, they were kind and polite. They don't need to provide too much service, so it's really not hard to satisfy. But I will say, the person that was at the front table, was a bit flustered and out of his comfort zone. He was trying his best, and ultimately fell short. I also felt the food was being "re-stocked" fast enough. I can't determine whether the cooks, or the servers, are responsible. Let's say they both are, and they succeeded. Oh, and right now this location is very busy. Hard to move around, and may be a long wait time. Especially the small entrance. Overall, none of the employees are rude. Their food isn't bad, just not quite worth the slightly more expensive cost. It's about the same ambiance as any Golden Corral you may find yourself at. If this is your thing, great. But I'd rather be at a regular restaurant in town. There's a chance this place works, and lasts, but it's small. Bring back Izzy's! Thanks for reading. read more

Is it food? Yes. Can you eat enough to be full? Yes. Is this place a good location for either? I don't think so. Service was attentive but cold, which is fine at a buffet I suppose. The place was clean, which was impressive. The food was regrettable. Many of the dishes that should be hot were somehow at or below room temperature, which was particularly alarming for the fish dishes. Some dishes were labeled "spicy", but even those had very little flavor. Several dishes were rather chewy. I got the impression that I was eating yesterday's leftovers. I left feeling nauseous after eating a plate and a half. Not stuffed - just queasy. I was very excited to try the place, but I don't see myself returning. read more

we have dined here a few times now. Overall it is very clean and good experience. The staff is polite, but could be more attentive. The food is Ok, lacks a little of the traditional flavors and spice level. The sushi was good and flavorful. I have even gone the take out route, really nice to pick what I what and take it home when I am in a pinch. But.. the take out containers they use are sturdy, microwave well but are slightly heavy. almost 3 oz empty. at .50 an once, 1.50 for just each container you use, since I get one for hot and one for sushi, it gets a little more expensive for take out. read more

Went here with mom and wife and son. Food was not replenished and was lukewarm. Mediocre at best. No typical items like sweet and sour chicken/pork or beef broccoli or kung pao. $90 for 2 adults, a 5 yr old, and a senior. Chicken with broccoli and crab puffs were the best things I found. read more

Don't waste your money, first time I went it was wonderful and they just opened. Second time I went it wasn't very good and then I thought I'd give him one more try and it was horrible. We never go back. read more

Great selection ! Normal faire plus salads , even catfish as well as smoked Eel sushi ! Real kind service ! Worth a visit ! Two Happy customers ! Thanks for making dinner tonight ! read more

Asian Buffet - Two different views on offerings. His and her plates ! - Buffets Near Me - Kelso, Washington

I went on a Thursday, it was my first time. Service was fine, I liked the inside as well, but the food was all completely cold or lukewarm at best. They really need to be on it more, actually keeping the food hot because now I have food poisoning. Probably one of the worst places I've ever eaten at simply because all the food was cold. 1 star. Will not be eating here again and I do not recommend. read more

Great food. Service was not great but good enough, but due to only 1 server. Clean. Would come back again.

I had my husband bring me here for my birthday. He loves buffets, even the awful ones, lol Anyway, service was ok. Definitely some language barriers but they were very nice. I really enjoyed the food! Everything was tasty, not over cooked, well seasoned. I'm not usually a buffet fan because the food is low quality but I found the quality here very good! We plan on coming back! read more

Went to dinner Sunday evening for the seafood buffet 7:30 pm. Most of the trays were half full and drying out. The crab and steamed shrimp trays were empty. Cost of $21.95 per person. While we were there, they never restocked anything. I was told they were cleaning the kitchen? They are open until 9:30 pm. Most places clean the kitchen after closing? We paid for what was crab and shrimp without receiving it RIP OFF. I do not recommend this buffet. Stated I would never return. read more

So disappointed. The sushi was poorly made, the food was occasionally mediocre at best, service was spotty. Some of the desserts were okay but it certainly wasn't worth what you pay for. All in all a very disappointing experience. I've heard similar experiences from others. I would only go back if someone else was paying. read more

My wife and I enjoyed eating at the Asian Buffet twice and both times food wash great. I would highly recommend this eating establishment. The food was hot and changed as soon as one item was low. Fresh and hot is what I experienced. The variety of Sushi was a real plus and very fresh. Go try Asian Buffet today you won't be disappointed. Jerry Connell read more

Asian Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Kelso, Washington

Ate there twice for dinner and loved it. Took two of my cousins at 4:00 pm and a Tuesday and our dinners were horrible. Most of the food was lukewarm and so was the food in the sushi bar. Should be no less than 140 deg F for the hot food and no more than 40 deg f for the sushi bar. Others seated near us were also complaining. We will never eat there again. read more

The food is very tasty and fresh. The service is fast and friendly. The location and interior are very pleasing and good ambiance. There's a lot of variety of food that you can find to an Asian buffet. The seafood is scrumptious and savory. The only food that may need to cook longer is the beef ribs, it's too chewy. But the rest are freshly cooked. I highly recommended it. The price is very reasonable. Parking space is also ok. read more

First time we went here I really enjoyed the food, and the sushi. Second time we went there, I was disgusted. As I was getting sushi I observed the sushi chef sneeze uncovered right into a sushi roll he was making and continue right along making it after he had sneezed in it. Disgusting!!!!! Will not be going back! read more

Drove over 20 miles to take my wife to lunch and not impressed with this place. However, perhaps they had an off day so I would not to pass on this place if your in the area. The good... place looked extremely clean & organised, workers were polite & friendly. The buffet line had the standard presentations which looked ok. The green beans looked old but they replaced while we were there, the snapper was not hot enough temperature wise but done well, the hibachi chicken needed to be browned, and the broccoli was soggy. All these flaws are easily fixed. The suchii looked very well done. Wish them the best & hope they make the quality adjustments instead of settling for mediocre. read more

The food was AWFUL. Mushy noodles, plain unseasoned food, over cooked meat and plain rolls. The only good thing was their mango cake. Their Thai drink was awful, very milky and not enough black tea flavor. It was also warm. I felt so NAUSEOUS after eating it. Not worth $50 for two people. DO NOT GO. read more

Great variety of food. Weekends all-you-can-eat snow crab legs. Food is delicious and brought out frequently from the kitchen. This was our third visit here and we will be back. read more

Really good, except the sushi. The sushi needs work. The crab, noodles, puff things and everything is so yummy.

Place was just okay, nothing to write home about. Food was adequate but lacked in flavor or excitement. Quantity over quality seems to be the order of the day in Kelso. Won't be back anytime soon. Panda express is much better at half the cost, if you need a mediocre asia food fix. read more

Service was good but the food was not so great. It was clean. Just not my favorite place for how expensive it is.

The food wasn't good to me. A lot of the vegetable dishes lacked flavor, and the "scallops" aren't real scallops. The sushi was fake seafood. Most of the meat dishes are overly breaded chicken. Lastly, the soups have no flavor either. I haven't been to the "actual" seafood buffet yet. I will try that when I get time. I was really looking forward to this place read more

Our first time here and they had a variety of food choices, more than expected. There were a lot of seafood options including the sushi. The sushi could have been better honestly but for a buffet it was not bad. They did have 3 flavor of ice cream cups to choose from. My boys gave it 5 stars. The place was clean which was also a plus. read more

Excellent service, fresh food, lots of choices and we enjoyed the sushi. The price can't be beat!! We will be back.

I went with my husband for lunch. Everything was going well until I watched 2 gentlemen getting their food. Then they both put the utensils down and lick their fingers and then go pick up another utensil. Then my husband saw something and shook his head. I asked what was wrong. He said he'd tell me when we went outside. Then I turn around to go get my dessert when I noticed one of the staff members picking their nose. This was also what my husband was shaking his head about.He also saw her doing it! I said something to her when I checked out. She thought it was funny. So funny that she walked back toward the 2 other servers and told them what I said. They laughed also! She did apologize for her grossing us out! I never did see her go wash her hands read more

The food was very good. As soon as they get open on a regular basis I think it will be great! Long wait line on opening days, but that is normal. I do recommend this business! read more

It was really good and I'll go there again soon The service is amazing. The place is was a bit small but overall good. read more

Okay this place has good food! But the service isn't the best. If you are there for lunch they will charge u for dinner price without communication. The communication there isn't the best. They won't correct it with out give u a nasty look. They need to let ppl know that they are switching from lunch to dinner, not have any surprises. My husband went for crab when it was lunch time still, they brought out. They bring out dinner meals early so be prepared . they will charge you for dinner price not lunch price without communication!!!! Get your communication under control read more

They have a large variety of foods, brought out in small enough batches as to keep things fresh. We were there on Thursday and only waited 5 min to be seated. Plenty of clean plates, used plates were cleared quickly. Staff was polite. Decor is tastefully done and all new. Pleasant experience all around. Will be going back soon. Only down side for me was the fried foods were a little over done...too crispy. read more

Everything tasted like paste. I don't think anything is actually cooked there. I'm pretty sure it comes premade in bags and thrown in the buffet. I come from a big city though where there are a lot more customers and chinese restuarants make more money. Still, it should be at least edible... It's not. It's not edible at all. read more

Great food, awesome price. I have always had amazing service. I have gone a few times and all of them were similar experiences.

Great food! Very clean and friendly!! I love the sushi rolls!! Actually I love it all lol

Good was good. Only time I ever had to pour salad dressing out of a store bottle. Liked the cocunut shrimp especiaally. Don't have chinese tea. Only had a jasmine tea bag. We don't eat Sush, so no comment on Sushi. Do miss Izzy's though. read more
