    Buffet
    James R.

    Food selection was great. This is one of the only places that I have seen baby octopus on the bar. They had just enough spice and were very tender. Wait staff kept our glasses full and table clear of plates. Whenever we started to get low on napkins, more would show up at the table. There were about six different buffet tables with different food on them. The ribs just fell off the bone. It was not super crowded. We went about 3pm which was before the dinner crowd. Some people may think it is over priced, but the drinks were included in the price and large parties have gratuity added in. With tip it was about $25 per person. This is a very casual place which is one of the cleanest buffets that I have seen. Check them out if you like oriental seafood. The salad bar was well stocked and there were vegetables to choose from for those who do not do meat. The frog legs were very tasty. Check them out and enjoy a good meal. I ate too much, but enjoyed it.

    It's a lottery win of buffets - a carnivores dream. Every bite delicious. Well done Blossom!

    Good selection of your typical buffet foods. Dinner includes many seafood dishes that were well cooked. Our waitress was sweet and kept our drinks filled. Nothing to complain about, Blossom is one of the better buffets in the Columbia area. My favorite part is the soft serve machine ;)

    Much better than most, this buffet was super busy and despite that, they kept it well stocked and clean. It is a large restaurant and they have a big set of steam tables with a good variety of the usual Chinese-American options. I was able to make some good choices and that included some decent sushi. I did not spot any disposable gloves but I had brought my own and that meant I wasn't touching the tongs that everyone else was handling. My waitress cleared dirty plates and refilled my drink often enough. I had a good experience here. [Review 19352 overall - 926 in South Carolina - 322 of 2023.]

    A lot of choices that are all excellently prepared. It is not a cheap option but well worth the money.

    Do they really have frog legs here? If so, are they any good?

    I lived in China for 7 years. They are OK.

    The restaurant is located along the side of a major street, so we parked about a block away and…read morewalked over, which was not an issue for us at all. From the moment we stepped inside, the experience completely shifted. The interior is truly spectacular--quiet, intimate, and thoughtfully designed. The space is petite yet incredibly intentional, and it immediately evokes the feeling of being transported to Japan. While I've never personally been to Japan, this restaurant genuinely took me out of a Western setting and placed me into what felt like a Japanese dining experience. Each table is sectioned off with dividers, which adds a layer of privacy while still maintaining an open, welcoming atmosphere that reminds you that you're still in the United States. It's a perfect balance between intimacy and accessibility, and it contributes greatly to the overall ambiance. I ordered the karaage meal, which came with a cabbage salad and rice. At first, I was concerned it might not be enough food, but it ended up hitting the spot in ways I didn't expect. While I could have eaten more, I was genuinely satisfied and comfortable by the end of the meal, which speaks volumes about the quality and balance of the dish. When placing my order, I also requested soup and mentioned to our server that I had been coughing earlier. Even though I wasn't actively coughing in the restaurant, she went out of her way to bring me hot tea to help soothe my throat. That level of care and attentiveness went well beyond expectations. She was incredibly polite, well-mannered, and made sure we felt genuinely taken care of throughout our visit. The value here is outstanding--not just for the food, but for the service, atmosphere, and overall experience. Everything comes together seamlessly, and it truly feels like a home run. There was no long wait to be seated; we walked in, told them how many people were in our party, and were seated promptly. For dessert, I ordered the matcha cheesecake. I went in with certain expectations based on what I was used to, and while it leaned more toward a New York-style cheesecake flavored with matcha rather than a traditional Japanese-style cheesecake, it was still very enjoyable and well-executed. Overall, everything--from the value and location to the food, service, and atmosphere--was excellent. I would absolutely recommend this place and plan to return the next time I'm back in town. I'm looking forward to trying more items on the menu and bringing more friends along with me. A sincere thank you to the young lady who went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience.

    I've been going here for 21 years. Hands down the best sushi I've had in Columbia. I live in…read moreCharleston now but I stopped in last night on my way back home. The owner learned from the original owner and has carried on the legacy well.

    This is my second time visiting this location. I never knew they even had ramen until I looked them…read moreup on door dash one evening. I I love sushi but I've never had a fresh poke bowl before so I will be trying one next time for sure. I got the Tonkatsu Ramen tonight with extra marinated eggs and it was so good! The Tonkatsu is a pork based creamy soup. (I added chili oil crisps when I got home). The location is so clean and the food is so fresh! I'm obsessed with ramen bowls so this does not disappointed. The girls that work on this location are always nice as well. Will be frequenting when I get that ramen crave for sure!

    There are not a lot of places to get a meal in Columbia SC on Sunday night. I was stuck looking…read morearound after other plans failed, and found myself here. From the outside, it doesn't look like a whole lot, but the inside was quite meticulously kept and had plenty of space to eat in, though most of their fairly vigorous business was takeout. As Poke-type places go, this one offered a ton of options. Virtually any diet could be accommodated, vegan and gluten-free easily so but also whatever you'd want in terms of limiting carbs. They had a splendid selection of ingredients with multiple fruits, several ways to get your greens, but also some delicious crunchy things and spicy sauces. And it was a good sized bowl. It was one of the better such bowls I've had, and for the ingredient quality, the price was not bad. Having been impressed into ordering a tea, I did not like that as much. My lychee tea was not excessively sweet, but the fruitiness didn't quite make up for it. The popping boba didn't quite pop the way I'd hoped either. Maybe another drink would have been better but I preferred the food over the tea. Still given the range of options available, I really could not have expected much better of a meal than this.
