Great sushi.really great food I travel 20 miles to go here. No disappointment s if you go.

4/5 - This buffet had everything you could want. Hibachi, raw food bar, regular Chinese food, sushi bar and dessert bar- INCLUDING AN ICECREAM BAR! It's $15 for lunch and $20 for dinner, making the price pretty inexpensive! The quality is up there and the food is great! The only reason I didn't give it a five was because out of buffets so far in Brevard, Chow's in Titusville has it beat! If you're not looking to drive up there and this is closer, I would definitely recommend it! TikTok Reviewer: acaicaitlin read more

Crystal Buffet Hibachi & Grill - Buffets Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

Honestly did not enjoy the experience. We were seated next to the waitress area but went with it. Usually i enjoy the hibachi area and snow crab well they don't have snow crab during dinner which is crazy to me when you are paying the most. The other area I enjoy is the hibachi area and their selections were very limited on the hibachi to the meats onions mushrooms and a few other items. It was disappointing. The rest of it was salty syrupy food that's typical for Chinese but there really weren't any other options not fried. They had green beans but then it was loaded with salt. I know these buffets usually have those items but they usually have more healthy options even on the hibachi. So I barely ate. Definitely would not go again for me. read more

The food was fresh and there is a wide selection of vegetables and meat dishes. The service was excellent. The restaurant is clean and my family and I felt very comfortable dining there. read more

Best buffet around town always fresh good quality food we always have an amazing meal

Typical buffet where some food is fresh and some is not. Over spiced means covering that up! Sorry not going to roll the dice I get fresher at fast food joint. Do you feel lucky is the feeling you get from this place. read more

This buffet is huge. There are a ton of servers to refill drinks. This restaurant is massive. It was what I expected. We went close to closing and they were a bit more closed down than I would have expected. read more

5 out of 5 on the Asian Buffet scale! First thing you notice is the koi pond with a ton of (very hungry) koi fish! I assume you can buy food at the counter. Next thing you notice is the 2 sided sushi station which gets you all the standard rolls, a few fancy rolls, nigiri, sashimi, and some salads. It was definitely a step above most all you can eat sushi. The next next thing you notice is how clean the place is. They run a tidy ship here! And one weakness of most buffets is the bathroom...but not here. Spotless and well maintained. Service was solid throughout with drinks and refills coming promptly and plates removed quickly. I always start with hot and sour soup and unfortunately this was one of the only misses in the whole place. It was a good soup but waaay too much pepper in this one. They should call it PEPPER and sour soup! Pretty much everything else was great (on the buffet scale). I had spicy shrimp, general tso's chicken, pepper steak, some really good spare ribs, mushrooms, green beans (very garlicy), cucumber salad, and a few other things. I left very full and very happy. The only "downside" is it's almost all Asian food whereas other places will have a bit of American food for those not into the Asian buffet experience. To finish the meal, they have THREE dessert stations. One for cookies/brownies, one for cakes and mousses, and one for ice cream. I had a cookie and honestly, it was pretty good. To sum it up, this is one great buffet. Melbourne does it right! read more

Came here with my family and I did enjoy this Chinese buffet place. Great price for dinner and there was plenty of food to choose from. I mainly ate the seafood they offer with unlimited crawfish and crabs!!! They seasoned their crawfish and crabs pretty well, unlike other places. The traditional Chinese take out food was a bit greasy for me. Service was okay. And they replenish the food pretty quick. read more

Great every time people are great and food is awesome .we come there a lot thank you

This was not it for me. And it was packed. And I love a good buffet. They did have A lot of selection. But the quality was pretty bad. Had to hunt for the rice and it was not fresh and dried out. Had a dozen of different chicken dishes and only one was decent. Everything was pretty sad looking. And again. This place came with rave reviews and was actually very packed, which means the food should have been fresh. It was all very sloppy and underwhelming. read more

The food was absolutely un edible so much added sodium. We each drink a gallon of water when we left this place was once good it just deteriorated into something terrible very unpredictable. You don't know what you're going to get. read more

solid dining experience, there was only a few foods that I was scared of, but most of them that I ate were freaking delicious from the occasional cold one but what do you expect when you go into a buffet it better not be piping hot food made ready just for you. It's gotta be ready for the people so for that I understand that that's why I didn't knock any stars off my review because this place is exactly what you're looking for if you're looking to indulge in some weird buffet this ain't no golden corral and that's a good thing. The servers are sweet and the vibe is weird on the inside, but that makes for a good buffet, the weirder, the vibe, the better the buffet. read more

Fresh food all the time and plenty of variety. Sushi, hibachi, and American food. They have it all!

Standard Chinese buffet with a VERY large selection. Also a decent selection of sushi. Attentive waistaff to grab your plates. $20 for the weekend buffet. Not bad for all you can eat Chinese food. Go when you're hungry! read more

At first I was dubious about a strip mall buffet. But I was flabbergasted at the variety and the quality of food available. Everything from sushi, sauced chicken, seafood, veggies, fruits, desserts can be found. I only had a few dishes I wasn't fond of. (I didn't like the egg rolls and chicken balls) read more

Stopped by for a late dinner last week while in Melbourne. Had a large party and they were quick to seat us and get our drinks ordered. Server's were constantly following up with us to see if there was anything we needed. Great service. The food was a good selection of hot and cold items. Every thing was good. The only comment was that the scampi was not totally great and the salmon could have been fresher. But considering that it was 8:30 at night. Everyone loved the sushi and the rest of our choices. The restaurant was a typical chain with a good ambiance with music playing in the background. Would love to go back at a different time of day and see how the two items mentioned above compare. Would recommend giving this place a try read more

Really excellent choice of food at Crystal. There's a LOT of seafood, a good range of entrees and fried sides, sushi and sashimi, and a sizeable offering of desserts as well. The service here is friendly and on the ball, it can get a bit busy but it's really big so you're lonely to get a table with little to no wait most days. read more

First time we ate here last year it was pretty good. This time, not so good. Everyone in the family except one, got stomachaches and the poops all night afterwards. Maybe it was just bad luck, but we won't be returning here in the future. read more

Food not hot anymore prices have doubled or triple since opened. Food has doubled or tripled also, in price since first opened years ago the quality is just not there. But we don't go anymore . read more

First time and it was a great experience. The sushi really was the golden ticket though, such a large variety and fresh. Would go back just for this. The hibachi was quick, clean and fresh but something about the meat was off, my friend and I both felt the same, just be the meat quality but the guy cooking was great. It was overall very clean and service was great despite them being very busy in a Sunday afternoon. Also, a big plus was that they had fish feeding for .50 cents, the little one loved it. read more

For a Chinese buffet... this one gets the gold star in Brevard! The restaurant is stunning with its neon lights, huge buffet area and well presented sushi bar. The koi pond is just so magical with its large rocks, wooden arched bridge and assortment of healthy and huge koi fish! You can even feed them! The sushi is always fresh. This place stays busy so if you go at lunch or dinner time, they are always putting out newly made rolls and sashimi. The hibachi grill is fast with amazing options like steak, chicken, pork and assorted veggies. Always remember to bring some cash so you can tip them and the sushi chefs! The hot bars are vast! Filled often with crab, a dozen shrimp dishes, beef, pork, fish, chicken, soups and every side you can ask for! Even the little ones will be happy with their fried foods and French fries which take up an entire row. There is ripe fruits and cold seafood too. Deserts are cute little cakes of every flavor and color but not to be outshined by the many choices of ice cream (green tea is my personal favorite!) If you are looking for a cheap buffet meal that is worth more than what they charge, make sure you try Crystal Hibachi. read more

Service was terrible plates werent cleaned off the table drinks werent refilled. Food was good but it would be nice for them not only to tell you what the sushi roll name is, but what the heck is in it a lot of places I've went to will put spicy tuna, avocado, cream, cheese, eel sauce, but here it's just crazy tuna roll. read more

The food was pretty amazing. Plenty of Seafood options to pick from. Small note: the cold cocktail shrimp wasn't as fresh as I have come to expect, and were of medium size at best. Everything else was beyond reproach. Try the seafood salad. The service, second to none. Very attentive! Ambiance is calm, not rowdy, great for kids! Pricing: $84 for four adults. The drinks (ice tea) $3.50 per person. Compared to other Buffets in the area, a bit pricey...yet well worth the price. read more

The food is great and always fresh. The mussels in the garlic sauce are amazing especially over the veggie lomein.

This is the best Asian buffet in the Melbourne area. But, that said, a lot could be better, but a lot would be worse elsewhere. Overall they have a good selection that they keep fresh; they do enough volume of steady customers that keeps the food moving and not sitting there too long. So, you're most likely to find enough items that you will enjoy and some you learn to avoid for your taste preferences. But, you get your money's worth, and more by many gluttons. The service is decent, especially since it's mostly self-service. Unlike most customers, I usually avoid many of their cooked dishes, because I prefer more gourmet versions. What I do really like here is: wonton soup, egg roll, rangoon, sashimi fatty salmon, fish roe sushi, eel sushi (on weekend menu), cold cocktail shrimp, seaweed salad, salad items (I add chopped up Napa cabbage, green peppers, onion, mushrooms and bean sprouts from the hibachi area to my items from the salad area), fried blue crab halves, fried salt & pepper shrimp with the heads on and sometimes their ribs. I wish they had better salad dressings. I like that they have melted butter for the small blue crab halves. I wish that they had snow crab though and roasted or crispy duck like some other buffets in other cities; but then it would be more expensive. The price is $17 with tax Sun-Thursday. It's slightly more on Friday and Saturday because they add extra seafood: fried oysters (which have a bad toxic flavor), raw oysters (which aren't too good), fried fish (not great) and I forget what else. Their dessert choices aren't too tempting for me, except the date cookies (which I peel most of the pastry part off of and just like the inside filling) or sometimes some of the sub-par-quality ice cream. They deserve some bonus points for being open on holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's day or Easter. They cook whole turkeys for Thanksgiving with mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potatoes and croutons that they call stuffing/dressing. I don't know why they don't learn to make a proper dressing. But the other holiday items are decent. They also add ham for the other holidays, but no turkey. And their holiday price is more reasonable than elsewhere. read more

My family visited this Chinese buffet while we were in town. It's your typical Asian buffet. They had a hibachi station and sushi bar here. The sushi wasn't bad and there was a decent selection to choose from. They do have all your typical Chinese American dishes such as fried rice, lo mein, general Tso chicken, walnut shrimp, egg drop soup, and vegetables. They had an ice cream station but there were empty ice cream cartons for their vanilla and cookie'n'cream flavors at the time and nobody replaced them. They had a big koi fish pond near the entrance which was pretty cool and added to the ambiance. Service was good as our waitress cleared our plates pretty quickly. read more

Food was so bland and hard. The environment was awkward and the waiter was rude. If you go just go for the hibachi

I invited about 30-40 people to this buffet after my wedding rehearsal as a "very informal" rehearsal dinner. They accommodated us well and everyone had a great selection of food! Our waitress handled us incredibly as everyone paid separately. I was impressed by her organization and control of our crowd. I dont remember her name but i hope she gets some credit! We live very far away so we will never be back but would recommend for families looking for a more than your average buffet! read more

Great Buffett. All kinds of food and the price is right for food. Great sushi bar as well. Love eating there.

If you like the typical no flavor, greasy, sugary Chinese buffets then this right up your alley. I've been here twice because a couple of my family members raved about this place and wanted me to try it with them. First time I gave it a go and left hungry. I couldn't find anything on the buffet that was worth eating other than some fruit and iceburg lettuce salad. Second time was about a year later. I had the same experience. I will say that I'm not a fan of buffets or western style Chinese food. I don't like the sugary sauces and fried foods so that's where my personal opinion differs from most people. I tried the sushi and shrimp. The sushi tasted old and the shrimp was very bland and watery. You could tell the shrimp was low quality and had been thawed out. I was wanting to try the hibachi but no one was working it the day I visited. I gave this two stars solely based on my personal preference alone. The service was okay and the buffet looked clean and well stocked, but the quality of food was greatly lacking. I know a lot of people enjoy this type of dining, it's just not my thing. If you eat the standard American diet then I'm sure you'll love this place. If you tend to eat on the healthier side then I think you'll be disappointed. read more

I dont review them often but I am a fan of buffets, especially when they are good. When I was a boy living in Southern California there were two we went too often. Sir Georges was a German buffet and The Big Yellow House was a comfort food buffet with the gimmick of paying by your weight. I guess ever business needs something to set them apart. Today I visited Crystal buffet after seeing my barber. The space is so nice and extremely clean. The staff is very friendly and refills happen without asking. First up I enjoyed the hot n sour soup which was tasty. Second was a mix of appetizers which too were tasty. A mixed plate of sushi was next and surprisingly it was very good. Lastly a mix of chinese food and I found the lo mein tasty, the bourbon chicken overcooked, the Peking pork tasty, the seafood cake was delicious. For something sweet I tried the green tea and it was amazing. Paid the bill and was out. I will definately be back. read more

Awesome Delicious Chinese Buffet!! Great service and very clean inside. This place takes COVID precautions very carefully making you feel very safe. As soon as we walked in my wife had forgot her mask in the car and the waitress gave her one. They took our temperature and explained how to serve yourself at the buffet using gloves that they also serve. Food was good with many options to choose from as well as the sushi they served. Overall It was a great first experience and will definitely be back again. One more thing I forgot to mention is that they also give military discount. read more

When you walk in this restaurant, you'll immediately realize this is a step above your normal Chinese buffet. There is a beautiful Koi pond at the entrance (for Halloween it's decorated with cobwebs!). All the different food areas are labeled well and in bright colors. It's a very appealing restaurant. Upon entering, temperature checks are done and they hand you a pair of gloves that should be worn while getting food. Dinner price (weekday) was $14. If you like sushi- you will get your $14 worth on your first plate. The sushi was REALLY good. They have rolls, sashimi, and nigiri. Everything was really good quality. They have a salad bar (do people really eat salads at these places?!?), dessert bar, ice cream bar, hot foods, and a made-to-order grill/soup station. The hot food was good- but not the best. The variety was impressive. There is literally something for everyone here. Tons of seafood options, beef, chicken. When something was marked as "spicy" it actually had a kick to it which I appreciate. I didn't have enough room for the soup but would like to try it next time. We got to the restaurant around 7:30pm on a Wednesday and the options were great. By the time we left at 8:30pm, the sushi had not been filled again and things were looking scarce. I totally understand that they don't want to waste food but I would recommend going at a busy time when you know the food will be rotated constantly. Overall, great experience- would highly recommend. read more
