The food was good.. It was nice see a familiar face that I knew Walter Anderson I love your smile…read more I'll be back.

We normally go to Krustaceans on 9th St.....but decided to try this place. Though I'll speak well…read moreof this place, the cost/value of this place - will (still) have me endorsing Krustaceans in Columbia. The seafood at this place, was cooked very very good. The quality of the seafood was a very clean tasting seafood. Even the shrimp had a nice clean flavor. And we're you looking for butter? Oh, they do (not) spare the sticks of butter at this place! The potato. Oh yes, I said "potato". I have never had a seafood bowl - have (just) a single potato. The potato tasted absolutely great. But 1 potato? That was a joke - especially after you see what these items cost! The garlic butter: There was plenty of butter. Tye flavoring of the butter, certainly was unique of sorts. Seemed to have (possibly) a chili powder base. And though I thought it was good...I also got tired of the taste, after a bit. The Big Downer at this place: Cost. You see my (2) platters. Add (3) cans of Coke - the cost was $150.00. Yes, that's correct: $150.00. Sure, there's a whole lobster on one of the platters. BUT, it wasn't that big by any means. And let's remember: 1 potato was included in the platter. 1 small red potato, came with it; at that price! Lol. Conclusion: Krustaceans is where you should go - for the seafood boiler platters. A much better combination of quality, value and price.

Typical Chinese buffet, the kind that was EVERYWHERE 20 years ago, but is rare nowadays…read more Visited this afternoon with a work colleague. Decent value at $11.99 each. We ordered tea and sodas (these cost extra) and then sampled the wares. I had one plate so there was room for a tiny bit of dessert. Service was good. Food was being made fresh in an open kitchen area, which I have never seen before in a Chinese buffet. No issues with parking. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained.

King's Buffet took me by surprise in the best possible way. For a buffet, the culinary quality is…read moregenuinely impressive. Every station feels thoughtfully curated, almost like a tasting journey built for people who really love food. The sushi was unexpectedly excellent -- the rice had that perfect, lightly warm stickiness, and the fish tasted clean and fresh, not dull or overly chilled like at many buffets. The hot dishes were the real standout: tender cuts of meat with actual flavor depth, vegetables that still had bite and brightness, and noodles that tasted like they came straight off the wok. What I appreciated most was the attention to detail. Trays were replenished before they even came close to looking tired, and nothing tasted like it had been sitting out. The seasoning across the board had balance -- salty, sweet, umami -- clearly made by someone who understands flavor, not just volume. Even the dessert section had intention behind it: creamy soft-serve, flaky pastries, and small bites that let you sample without getting overwhelmed. King's Buffet isn't just "a lot of food" -- it's a surprisingly refined buffet experience that respects freshness, flavor, and variety. A must-visit for anyone who enjoys exploring different tastes on one plate. King's Buffet took me by surprise in the best possible way. For a buffet, the culinary quality is genuinely impressive.
