    I'm not the biggest fan of buffets now that I'm a bit older and do not have an iron stomach anymore. However, having a buffet open in Littleton is fairly exciting so we decided to give it a try. Everyone working is really friendly and our plates were cleaned up in a timely manner. The prices are reasonable also. $21pp for a weekday dinner is quite the steal in this economy. We tried a bit of everything, but what stood out was the Monglian grill. The sauces are very concentrated though, so definitely only use half to 1 scoop of sauce for your bowl, it is very salty. The fried chicken was delicious and highly recommend grabbing some of those. The coconut shrimp was tender and sweet. The salmon was also cooked and seasoned well. Skip the crab and the sushi was not the best and definitely not the star of the buffet. They also have an ice cream station with soft serve along with packaged ice cream. These were nice to have, but nothing memorable. We arrived around 5:30 and there were plenty of tables, but by the time it was 6:30 it was packed. We were seated in a booth and we also needed a high chair and it was abnormally tall to meet the height of the table. However, my son couldn't even reach the table because it was too far and it was very inconvenient. I'd recommend getting a non booth with a normal high chair if it's available. The biggest tables could fit about 6 people. Otherwise, it is a family friendly buffet. I honestly can't complain for the price.

    For the price and the selection not bad. There's not many places like this left so if you want to get your buffet fix and to try a selection of items then why not. For $21 dinner price you can't beat all the options you have. There's also desserts, ice cream, pizza for your picky eaters, seafood options and Mongolian grill options where you can create your own stir fry. Come hungry and try some good food. They literally just opened a couple days ago so yes it can get busy but I feel like they were moving the tables pretty quick even at 6:30pm on a Friday night. The place was really clean and I enjoyed the vibes. Below are a few photos that I took of the items I tried. The banana pudding was also very good. They a little of everything if you want or stick to one thing, whatever you prefer.

    City buffet is your standard Chinese and sushi buffet with a Mongolian grill as well. I've been excited to try it since it opened a few months ago, as it's now the closest all you can eat Chinese place to my house. The sushi was better than most buffet sushi. The meats we tried were not dry, the Thai chicken was so incredibly garlicky it was all I could taste for a while. The Mongolian line moved quickly. The staff were very friendly from the start, and I like how there's plenty of booth seating. Before tip, it was $54 for two, so a little more expensive than some buffets but pretty average.

    I have been waiting for this restaurant to open for nearly a year and I'm thrilled it's finally open. They are calling it a "soft opening" but it's open and running. I grabbed my wife and her new girlfriend and headed over. We were all impressed from the second we walked in until we walked out. The decor is eye catching and beautiful. Everything is new, clean and shiny. The staff were all exceptionally pleasant, polite, helpful and efficient. The food choices lean more towards Asian type cuisine but they have plenty of basics of Americans type foods. I enjoyed their soft serve ice cream bar as well. Parking was simple and there plenty of it. It's in a really nice area of town with Marston Lake right behind it. This place is a hit and all three of us really enjoyed ourselves. The big plus? Very LGBT friendly. I highly recommend this new buffet.

    Arrived at 5pm on a Sunday thinking I'd beat the crowds, but was surprised to see a crowd already! Waited for 20 min for our table, not bad for a new highly anticipated soft opening for a buffet. I did enjoy the food variety and Mongolian grill. Sushi- I thought was better than most other similar places in the Denver metro area. Restaurant is clean, I loved the hand washing station out in the open (don't need to go into the bathroom), the soft serve was fun as well. Will definitely come back!

    Discovered this new Asian buffet in Littleton to meet up with a friend. The place is decent sized. We got there right about 5 pm on a Wednesday night before the dinner rush. Place was clean and servers every where. We were seated immediately. One thing I liked about this buffet is that they have sinks to just wash your hands outside of the restrooms, which I like a lot. Any buffets you go to is just a casual ambiance, nothing fancy. Food I would say is decent. Don't expect fine dining when coming to a buffet. The best thing I enjoyed there was the green beans, battered fried shrimp, Chinese donut, Thai chicken, and the little ice cream cups. You can't really go wrong with food choices here. Price was definitely reasonable. Overall experience was good.

    They offer a great selection of dishes including sushi, seafood and meat. Quick service by the staff to keep our table clean. The seafood is fresh and their beef dishes are delicious.

    Came to visit this place for the first time on Valentines Day and it has become a favorite!…read moreTo start, the host let us know upon arrival that they were out of all sauces besides the garlic butter and also out of other items which was a little disappointing. I was very skeptical at that point if I was going to really like this place. Next, we got seated quite quickly although there were 5 couples ahead of us. All the staff members I encountered were very friendly, nice and attentive which was a huge plus, especially considering how busy it was that day. We ordered our food and noticed they had very good prices and cheaper than our go-to seafood boil place so that's a win! The food came out hot, our server emptied out the bags for us which was very nice. I ordered the shrimp with head on xxtra hot and It was the perfect spice level for my latina taste buds, absolutely loved it even with just the garlic butter sauce. My husband got snow crab and he was very pleased with how tasty and easy it was to crack them open and get the crab out. If you have leftovers they will pack it up for you which is another plus for me! Lastly, I got a beautiful rose to end the night when we were heading out which was a nice touch! Overall, I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant. It was delicious and cooked perfectly! I am excited to try out their other sauces and look forward to it!

Pro tip: crawfish season is typically April/May, call them before you go to see if they have fresh crawfish in!

Luckily it didn't affect the crab leg cluster which still tasted great. On the plus side, the location is good and there is ample parking. When we went on a Tuesday night at peak dinner time there was no wait for a table. I am on the fence about whether I would return.

Well that's how I felt this morning, so VinaMeals was where I ended. I ordered two items, so join me and read my food journey... Just had bánh ít tràn, a Vietnamese, steamed sticky rice dumplings dish. This dish reminds me of my mom's cooking where she used to make us this dish all the time to eat for breakfast. Lots ingredients inside the these three dumplings including mung bean, wood ear mushroom, jicama carrot, onion, garlic, minced with pork and shrimp. It came with steamed bean sprouts, cucumber, and fish sauce to dip the dumplings or just pour over the dish. I felt the accommodating items didn't add any value to this dish, but boy, did these dumplings bring back good memory. Of course, when you are here, you have to get their small wonton soup. It is one of the best I have ever eaten. I believe the broth that is the star, and the wontons come very close but just a second too late. This small soup is very filling, and I always wonder if adding a bowl of plain rice into the soup will make this dish a complete meal. We will have to find out later.
