    This was our first time here. It's located I n South Gate plaza. It's not very big inside but has plenty of parking. It's an older strip mall so inside was dingy and the seats were worn away where there used to be vinyl. The dinning room isn't very big but enough seating to handle the constant stream of patrons that came in for the buffet or carry out orders. You walk in the front door and come to a counter and you pay upfront. Watch out cause drinks are $2.99 and he simply says do you want coke? Knowing that drinks weren't included and they didn't have diet we chose water. We chose the buffet and it was $23 for 2 without drinks. Kinda pricey but the cheapest in town right now. Standard Chinese buffet food just on a smaller spread. The food was actually good. They were constantly filling it with fresh food and the meats were tender the seafood bit over cooked at all. The fried rice was bland but the white rice was great. Lo mein noodles were perfect and the three soups they offered were hot and amazing. They didn't have much of a desert bar but they had fresh watermelon and mandarin oranges which was perfect for me. They were I too if filling our waters, giving us lots of napkins and taking away our plates. If I lived closer I'd go back again but it's a 25' drive from me and there are other buffets closer to me but we like to try other local places to eat so one time is enough. Staff is friendly and very attentive. I'd recommend them to anyone. They have a regular menu too that you can order from. Try it and see how you like it.

    We haven't been to Golden Corral in maybe 5 years. We stopped going cause of poor quality of food,…read moreroom temp food, serving area was very nasty, food everywhere. People letting their little ones fix their own plates. You know what that was like right ?? Food and serving utensils everywhere. A HUGE NASTY MESS !!! Saw some of them pick food u with there hands and back in the service trays. OMG !! Soooo we left. Didn't get to eat. Got a refund. Off we went to McDs. Lol, yeah we like McDs. So last week on Friday we talked about trying it again. Husband was shocked I said "one more try ". They weren't too crowded yet around 4:30 pm. The plate stand was clean and well stocked with plates, and silverware were wrapped in long wrap packets. The service line was clean and food was surprisingly steaming from heat. It was all hot !!! Tried the fried chicken, mashed tatoes corn (with extra butter of course) , their warm delicious dinner rolls, fried shrimp, they had 2 kinds both were hot n crunchy. Stuffing, gravy, fried fish Husband just loved, I thought it was good too. They also had beef chunks with gravy and sliced beef with peppers n onions for wraps. Ground beef burgers and for tacos. Just about anything you could think of they had. I had my share of shrimp I tell ya !! Lol Husband had his share of fish and steak a young lady was constantly wearing on a flat top grill. The dessert line was fully packed with goodies too. I had a piece of chocolate cake. Was tasty too. Husband 2-3 to different desserts. I was too busy eating to see which ones. Sorry. Lol All in all we were very pleased and impressed with our day there. We will go back again. We had coupons too !! $2.00 off per person. Hey any savings is great in my book. They were getting very crowded when we were about to leave. I think maybe 6ish or so. Can't remember. Glad we tried them out again. Hope you all will to. It's your typical hog trough, but was a clean n tasty one this time. Yes we left a tip for the waitress. She kept the plates off the table , and drinks filled. Go ahead, be brave again !! Lol

Those would have been better with a sauce to dip them in. We also had the pulled pork sandwich, kids ribs, and kids Mac and cheese. Everything was served hot and fresh. You order at the counter and an employee brings your food to the table. It was quick and we received everything as we ordered it. We sat outside on the patio which was great. It was clean, had umbrellas, and is dog friendly. Overall good experience

    Shigs in Pit (Maplecrest) - excellent choice for BBQ in Fort Wayne…read more Shigs is located north of St. Joe Center road on Maplecrest. It's parking lot is easy in-easy out and has a very large facility. Upon entering you order at the counter from a large menu posted on the wall. They will bring you your selections to the table or carry out counter. The Mad Anthony brewery has an attractive looking bar inside as well. The team here was very friendly and helpful. The facility is very clean, orderly and attractive. The menu is fairly large but perhaps difficult to understand since it is posted on the wall. Cost is fair and moderate. Here is a recap of our food choices: -Wings: predominant smokey flavor, fried and dipped in one of 8 sauces. The wing was nicely cooked - no pink insides. The skin of the wing was a bit cripsier than i would prefer. The Alabama White sauce is mayo based, slightly sweet with not much seasoning or spice. It made the wings nicely moist. The teriyaki sauce is bold, thicker and has a slight back end kick to them. -Cole Slaw: nice fresh and crisp larger slaw pieces, thin mayo base, sligtly sweet but a bit watery -Macaroni salad: thin mayo base that actually came off also a little watery, elbow noodles were cooked perfectly, side veggies had a nice crunch to them, sauce was mildly sweet -Chicken tenders: moist and tender, no real Smokey taste detected, seemed to come off a little dry and tough -Corn "spoon" bread: mild corn taste, bread was moist and sweet, nice blend of corn bread and corn casserole -Tomato & Cucumber salad: very fresh and tasty. Cool veggie and vinegar tastes

    The food was amazing and service was great! Definitely try this out if you want bbq or hotpot.read more

    After the ownership change, Uniq (now with lowercase letters!) is actually... okay now, I guess?…read moreStill nothing impressive, but it's a solid C+ and the new owners (heard they are the same guys behind Haru) actually seem to know what they're doing. My favorite things in the new Uniq are easily the chinmi (fishcake) tempura and the mixed drink (I got Green Apple, which came in a nice blue liquid like the chemical cocktail it is) which is... honestly kinda sad, but they got actual KBBQ now and are a lot more professional about the whole thing. Seriously though, for an AYCE appetizer, the chinmi tempura was quite excellent, though the shrimp tempura on the other hand was sad and soggy and raw and all-around depressing. Dae Gee still has much better appetizer options, that's for sure (nothing can beat a good Midwestern cheese corn yummmm). I still don't get what's supposed to be so uniq about this place though? Perhaps it's the tiny amount of broth and banchan they give you? Both have unlimited refills if you just ask, but something about it still strikes me as being particularly stingy. None of the meats are particularly special either even though they have more choices now. Most of the cuts are fatty (the galbi in particular is what we'd call a "trash cut" due to how fatty it is) and the different flavor profiles that they have like bulgogi, spicy honey or umakara ("sweet-and-spicy") just kind of blend together. The beef tongue also struck me as being way tougher than it had any business being, perhaps it was cut a little too thick. Much of the seafood is still obviously from Rang Dong. Though they got rid of the syrupy "bingsu" and just offer buffet ice cream now, which is actually a nice change of pace. It's about Paradise Buffet level in terms of cream quality, which I guess isn't so bad. Perhaps the one GOOD and uniq thing I can talk about is that they were playing RELATIVELY obscure K-Pop songs like Nekkoya when we visited, rather than the ultra-popular stuff that you hear everywhere in Chinatowns, with some Persona 5 OST and Ado thrown in. I respect. Should've turned the volume up further, though. If you're gonna weeb out, do it correctly. TL;DR I still like Dae Gee better tbh, but they have some competition now.
