    Buffet
    Matt K.

    Excellent Japanese seafood buffet. Not touristy. Has everything you'd want from sashimi to cooked shrimp chicken chef cooked noodle bowls and fruit and desserts too. Not very expensive either considering $27 per person.

    False advertisement
    Nyanberry B.

    Was hoping to try out the many vegetarian options they advertise from the website only to be disappointed and after consuming the cheese wonton I later find out they had imitation crab The restaurant setting and decorations are nice the food is well looking however when walking around you can see several of the display tags mislabeled missing and unorganized To confirm if a vegetable sushi roll was actually vegetable because the (tag was swapped) I had to yell over to two gentlemen sitting on the floor with AirPods laughing to their phone to get their attention behind the food to ask for help I understand they may be tired but sitting on the floor? Waiter was nice tho she confirmed with the chefs when I took a bite Manager then explained to me they don't have many veg options ???? Why would website say other wise then Aside from the the basic fried rice , noodles and everything was pleasant but lost my appetite after that interaction

    Great seafood and sushi buffet with a good assortment of items from hot cooked dishes to a fresh seafood station and a large sushi area. I've been for both lunch and dinner, and both were good value for a very reasonable price. Lunch options had all the basic buffet stables like fried rice, noodles, various fried or stir fried chicken dishes with some beef and seafood options, and lots of nigiri and rolls in the sushi bar with a few seafood salads at the end. For dinner, they bring out the premium stuff including generous cuts of sashimi (tuna, salmon, escolar), stir fried lobster, oysters and mussels in the raw bar, and some nicer hot options like pan seared short ribs even though the hot item section is a bit on the small side for both lunch and dinner. The hibachi area, while it looked nice, didn't look quite as impressive as the other stuff and with smaller portions of meat so I ended up skipping it. Also, dessert was mostly generic batched stuff like pudding and the square cake/pastry pieces you find at most other buffets. However, the rest of the items more than made up for it. If you're looking for a place to stuff yourself with tasty, no frills meat and seafood at reasonable prices, then Ginza is a great option.

    Our 1st time at this place, actually our first time at a Japanese buffet ever. We were really excited to try it but.... Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience, the food not all good , we tried everything and only a very few things were ok, the sashimi , the nigiri,the spring rolls and ribs were ok , the rest not so much. The service was good , ambience ok , it was clean and had a nice people. Sadly 2 of the 3 people that went got sick the next day....my husband and I got sick, we are certain it was the food of this restaurant because that was the only meal we had the whole day.

    ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI!!!!! It's good quality, you can see the sushi chefs making the rolls there as you take them. They also have hot foods too, the normal noodles, rice, chicken, ribs, dumplings, soups, salads. Dessert bar is a must, lots of flavors and mini cakes. Always solid for Lunch and cheap for AYCE. Service is quick and attentive. Sushi is really good for being a buffet.

    Looks really be deceiving, not good despite how it looks in the photo. Service was good though! Chill vibes, but would recommend elsewhere.

    Drinks!

    I Last night I went to South Beach and spent over $100 on just three drinks. Today, eating at this buffet feels like winning the lottery! First of all, the restaurant is elegantly decorated and looks very new. The food presentation is beautiful and well-organized. The variety is impressive, and everything tastes delicious. There are plenty of vegetarian and meat options, and the desserts and ice cream are absolutely tasty.

    Pros: 1) very nice place; 2) clean Cons: 1) my waitress was slow, I had to find her to ask her for a drink, my dirty plates was on the table; 2) No sashimi on the lunch time; 3) Too many tasteless sushi; 4) too expensive for this quality of food

    A pretty nice Japanese buffet right in the center of Pembroke Pines. This is my go-to location…read morebecause it is constantly strong with everything that I enjoy. The location is very easy to find and has a nice amount of parking so I never need to hunt for one and jump at it. The service is always amazing and my table is never covered by more than one or two used plates from when my husband and I go to the buffet to grab more food. The drinks are always filled and they have a nice assortment of bar drinks as well. The lychee martini was good but not my favorite but the happy hour price made it better lol! The food is pretty good and there is a nice variety from sushi, seafood and hibachi! The sushi is always fresh and they have a huge variety of it so I never get bored getting the same two or three roll pieces when I am here!

The buffet is well laid out with separate sections for hot foods, seafood, sushi, desserts, and ice cream, so it's easy to navigate. The seafood selection included lobster, and the sushi bar offered a large variety with plenty of options to choose from. The staff was efficient, and the food was replenished quickly, so nothing sat empty for long. Everything was well organized and made for an enjoyable dining experience. If you're looking for a buffet with a wide selection and attentive service, Minato is definitely worth a visit.

A 1/2 lb. serving of crab legs was an extra $5/person which was worth it, although of course I would have preferred unlimited servings! Guests are given tickets to pick these up and can order them hot or cold. The made to order pasta was a highlight for me. I know, that is not where you want to be focused in a buffet, but I had 2 delicious half-servings of pasta and regret nothing lol! Other than the pasta, other items I enjoyed most were the chicken wings, ribs, pan-fried fish, breaded shrimp, and mashed potatoes (but I'm kind of biased, because I really like mashed potatoes...). The most disappointing item for me was a seafood chowder. It was edible but the texture and flavor was very much one-note. Ok, it was a bowl of salty mush. Do not recommend. There are a ton of desserts available in the display case and a soft-serve machine with vanilla and chocolate flavors, plus various toppings. It's also worth mentioning that the diet coke was on point. No one enjoys an unfizzy or unbalanced soda, and theirs was perfect, as if I were drinking it out of a just-opened bottle lol.

    This a Formal Complaint: Unacceptable Employee Conduct and Cursing at Chew Time Grill & Buffet…read morethat's at the Pembroke Pines Location. I am writing to report a severe customer service failure at your 12375 Pembroke RD, Pembroke Pines FL 33025 restaurant on this day, June 13, 2026 at approximately 3:11-3:25pm. My server, Reymen, tall Karen, Asian or Chinese maybe was extremely hostile and explicitly cursed at me before my family and I before leaving the restaurant. As a paying customer, being subjected to vulgar language and verbal abuse from your staff is completely unacceptable. This behavior violates basic workplace standards and hospitality rules. I request that corporate management investigates this incident, reviews the store camera footage if necessary, and takes disciplinary action. I expect a response detailing how this is being handled. Receipt/Transaction ID# 506141378223635, total amount adding up to $68.42 with NO Tip (of which I wrote on the Merchant's Receipt. As I approached the counter to pay, Reymen rudely told me to hurry up. I told him that I was sorry. I didn't know that he was waiting on me. He asked me if I had already given him my credit card? I quickly told him that I really don't like his tone. He quickly said, "I don't care!" I asked him what did he meant by saying he didn't care... I asked him for his manger, said he was the manager, went on and on saying he didn't care. The lady at the counter said there is no manager, when I asked her for his higher up. I asked few workers about his higher up manager. The frontline person behind me asked me to explain the situation. He smiled and looked at Reymen several times as I was explaining. On my way leaving he kept cursing at me profusely. At one point, he advised me that there are cameras everywhere because I was looking up at the cloud ceiling design my son was admiring. I told Reymen that I hope the cameras could hear the filthy words he was saying to me. Other people around and his co-workers heard him including customers. My son left asking him why was he cursing at me. We went to celebrate my mom's 75th birthday and it was not a good experience at all. She was shocked on the way Reymen was speaking to me. Because I didn't curse back at him, I hope Reymen don't think I would just let that go.
