    Visit date: 2/29/2020 So if you want to know if I would go back??? See the answer at the bottom. FOOD: So the food selection was VERY limited. I did have the mussels and they where good. The rice was ok. That's all I ate. The cocktail shrimp had a funny taste to them. Nothing else on the buffet looked like I even wanted to try. The broccoli was so full of oil with no flavor. I only eat seafood and I never had a issue with finding food to eat at any Chinese buffet before but this place I did. My husband had some fried chicken and as he was eating it he was saying something did not taste right and after taking another bit he seen why, the chicken was not even cook correctly (see photo). When they was informed yes they took the chicken off the buffet and apologized. The next pan was cooked correctly when it come out. NO NO: So my son had a piece of apple pie and ice cream. I went to get me some for myself and could not find the Apple pie and my son had to show me where it was... IT WAS BETWEEN SOME CHICKEN AND SOME RIBS (see photo)!!! So that was a no no for me and I did eat that either. INSIDE: was ok not to big or not to small. We was sitting closer to the buffet. They employees was close to us eating as well lol. Would I go back? THATS A NO for me. See the service was good. It was the food. I could have still paid that same price at another buffet with WAY MORE FOOD to pick from.

    Crispy butter shrimp, peppersteak, cabbage, sesame chicken, Indian chicken, mushrooms, and sweet and sour soup.

The space…read moreis beautiful -- classy but still comfortable -- and the bar area alone is worth checking out. It has that warm, lively feel that makes you want to hang out and enjoy your time instead of rushing through the meal. We did a wine flight to start, which was a fun way to try a few different pours, and everything paired really well with dinner. The highlight for me was the whole roasted fish. Crispy on the outside, super tender inside, and really clean, fresh flavor. Simple but done really well. Service was on point too -- friendly, attentive, and helpful without hovering. Definitely a spot I'd come back to and one I'd recommend if you're in Charlotte and want a solid dinner with great drinks and atmosphere.

They even still have the 120 year old pews! If you ask your server, you are likely to hear the entire story of the place. It's pretty amazing. They recently received a Michelin recommendation and it's totally deserved. It's a buffet, but most of the hot food is actually served by a person which is something that I particularly appreciate. (I really don't like touching the handles of spoons that hundreds of people have touched.) Some of the stuff is self serve but not any of the hot dishes. Absolutely everything I tried was outstanding. Like everything. There are a few things that they consider "pass around" which means that they are brought over to you by a server at random intervals. For everything else, you just help yourself. I went with a friend of mine who has a deep appreciation for a southern food. He was absolutely amazed. Honestly, I can't think of a better place to have chosen to eat in a short time I had in Charlotte. I've attached a picture of the menu. I tried just about everything. I wasn't disappointed in a single thing, and I was completely wowed by many of them. The servers were wonderful. Very friendly and very willing to talk to us about the history and the food items that were there. Highest recommendation!

There is a wider selection of food, and it seems fresher. You can find everything from broccoli and chicken, salmon, honey walnut shrimp (though I did not see any walnuts), green beans, mussels, and tilapia to mac and cheese, pizza, fried chicken, and mashed potatoes to grapes, peaches, pineapple and more! They also have a hibachi area. There are more sushi rolls to choose from, and they also have popsicles for the kids. The water feature looks similar, but there are no fish. Staff is very attentive and quickly clean the table of plates as soon as you finish your plate. There is plenty of parking. My only complaints are that the drinking water had a funny taste, and the bathroom is not clean. Otherwise, this is a great place to dine, especially for groups.

Dirty plates were removed very late -- I even had to clear the table myself multiple times. She basically did nothing else. When the check for $58 came, I refused to add any tip. She deliberately wrote +$6 tip by hand herself at the bottom and told me I had to pay it because there were three of us. She stood there and wouldn't leave until I signed the check under pressure. This is straight-up fraud and theft! Tips in America are completely voluntary -- the customer decides, not the server. She had no right to add her own tip after I clearly refused. This is illegal. I'm not paying for such pathetic "service" -- late refills and slow plate clearing. This was a fraudulent action, and I will be disputing this entire transaction with my bank as an unauthorized charge. Do not recommend this place at all. Watch your check carefully and take a photo immediately. Extremely disappointed -- I will never come back!

Our server started pushing us to pay while we were still eating. I politely asked if I could pay at the front like I normally do, but she didn't speak English and became very pushy and rude. They began removing dishes from the table before closing time and before giving any kind of last call. I asked to speak with the manager, but when he arrived he also did not speak English, so there was no real way to properly explain the situation. At 9:01 pm we were basically told to leave. I completely understand restaurants have closing times, but there is a respectful way to handle it, usually by giving customers a heads-up and allowing them time to finish their meal instead of rushing them out the door. As someone who worked in restaurants when I was younger, I know that basic communication and courtesy are essential. What also felt uncomfortable was the atmosphere among the staff. The employees seemed extremely nervous and afraid to speak or explain anything, which made the whole situation feel strange and unsettling. It honestly gave the impression that they were scared to say the wrong thing or do anything outside of strict instructions, which was sad to witness. Overall, the food might be fine, but the service and the way the situation was handled made it a very disappointing experience.

I was wearing shorts and it was PAINFUL if I got up too quickly. The lighting is cold and uncomfortable. It's not a welcoming place to dine anymore. A completely depressing environment. Everything looks like it's in disrepair and being very poorly maintained. The quality of the meats has gone down as well. The sides were not fresh. Especially the cucumbers. This is no hate to the staff but almost everyone that worked there seemed miserable as well. They did a great job but it just seemed like they all were sad for some reason. I truly think it's the environment. I would hate working at such a depressing restaurant. The staff were attentive and consistently checking on us. They never left us alone for too long!

If you're smart you will bump his hourly and make him a shift manager/ trainer. The staff is the reason I'm not giving one star. Korean culture is vibrant and fun! Please hang up some art work and posters. Hire someone to remove that god awful sticky paint! Which I know you can't clean properly. Change the lightbulbs to warm lighting. Put out some fun decor on the tops of the booths. Make your restaurant into a place people naturally feel happy to be at. Paint over that black wall in the back and fill it from top to bottom with Korean art work as an accent wall! Or put in giant decorative shelves with plants and collectible Korean toys. DO ANYTHING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

I expressed to be seated somewhere else and she seemed to have taken offense to me asking. As she was showing us to our seats she was walking through the restaurant so fast mind you guys, it was our first time there. Waiters walked by us several times before asking if we needed anything. It wasn't a good impression of the restaurant. We will not be returning. People shouldn't work in customer service industries thats face to face services if you're not a people person. This is all based off of my observation of the overall experience. We wanted to try something different outside of the buffet spot we normally go to and thought this would be a good experience but unfortunately it wasn't. The restaurant wasn't as big on the inside with the aisle being too narrow to walk in between without getting too close to the tables or having to stop midway to allow others to walk past. When your used to a certain level of customer service from other places, you can instantly spot the differences in the service levels. Not to sound mean which isn't my intent at all, but for those who go here on a regular and you enjoy the food dont stop if your pleased with the service. Continue to support them however, as for me and my family we didnt have a good experience and the first impression of the service was not a good one. I have always given credit where credit is due and this isnt to say that everyone there had poor customer service because that wasn't the case at all. I'm only referring to those who were servicing us. I actually had a very nice waiter who wasn't assigned to our table to come over and see about us because he noticed no one had been to our tables to ask if we needed anything. The food was ok. Our experience may not be someone else's. When we went it was very busy so it could have just been due to the crowd but at any rate when you're in a customer service industry its always best to put your best foot forward. The only reason im giving a 3 star is because of the waiter who was so kind and provided great customer service.
