    Okay so hear me out. The food is a hit or miss. I loved the mini springrolls, the chicken mixed with some stuff and the sushi(liked). BUT you can tell the sushi has been there for a while. The beef was chewy and had this smoked burnt flavor. Chow mein wasn't is neither was the fried rice they were just too plain. The shrimp I got was good(sorry I can't remember the names of everything I made sure to get a bit of everything) Chicken nuggets were surprisingly good and so was the duck. The fruits was delicious and there was a chocolate fountain along with ice cream. For two people it was 40 euros. Service was amazing. But it is a HIT OR MISS.

    The whole spread

    The best Mongolian grill in Kaiserslautern and a great dessert spread too. It's a buffet, so you should already not have high expectations for the sushi, but everything else was really great. Went here on a whim, and while we did find it funny that it's next to a pet store, it was clean and legit with fish selections like shark and cuttlefish and meat options like kangaroo, rabbit, and crocodile. Check it out!

    They offer the average price for a Chinese Buffet in the area, which is about 30 something Euro…read more I've compared and at first glance, there are a few buffets in the same vicinity that offer a wider range of food choices. Food aside, this place has probably one of the better indoor kid areas for a restaurant. A place for kids to play regardless of the weather, and one of the walls is completely glass - so you can see through it. Chuck E Cheese isn't a thing here in Germany, so we have to resort to whatever we can get over here.

    We went on a Wednesday around 5:45 PM, shortly after opening, so freshness should have been at its…read morebest. The restaurant is clean and comfortable, with elaborate Asian-inspired décor, statues, gold accents, and plenty of LED lighting. It looks nice, although the style is familiar from large Asian buffets everywhere. It feels like there's one giant warehouse supplying them all with dragons, artificial plants, and decorative gold trim. Service is very low-key. We were shown to our booth and then left to navigate the buffet. A card explains the prices and rules, and clothespins are provided for the Mongolian grill: clip one to your plate before handing it over. It's unusual but simple. We never had a traditional waiter, though dirty plates disappeared regularly, so the tables stayed clear. The food was the main issue. There were four of us, and our consensus was: It wasn't bad. It wasn't good. It was... food. At €31 per person, I expected more. Nothing was terrible, but very little made us want seconds. The sushi wasn't exactly fresh, though it wasn't stale either. It occupied that culinary middle ground of "technically, this appears to qualify as sushi." The fried food was definitely fried, but most of it seemed to have missed the seasoning stage. The traditional dishes were edible but forgettable. The Mongolian grill was especially disappointing. The concept is good, but the ingredients--particularly the meats--didn't look fresh or appealing, which was concerning given how early we arrived. Only one person tried it. His official review was simply: "Meh." Desserts were mixed. There was a decent variety, but careful selection is recommended. Some were good; others made us question whether the calories were worth the paperwork. The soft-serve ice cream and pudding were surprisingly tasty. Drinks are included, which is a genuine plus. You choose them yourself from refrigerated cases, with a good selection and no waiting for refills or surprise charges. The biggest problem is the price. Dinner is currently about €31 per person, and I don't think the quality or selection justifies it. At around €20, this would be a very different review. Lunch is cheaper and may be the better option. There are several similar restaurants nearby. Are they better? Maybe. Worse? Also possible. That's the excitement of Asian buffet roulette. The restaurant has potential, especially with the Mongolian grill. I'd simplify it by focusing on fresh steak, chicken, shrimp, vegetables, and better sauces instead of offering seafood that doesn't appear particularly fresh. Improve the freshness and seasoning overall, and €31 would make more sense. Overall: 3 stars. The restaurant is clean, the drinks are handled well, service keeps the tables clear, and there's plenty of choice. Nothing was outright terrible. Unfortunately, nothing was particularly memorable either. Not bad. Not good. Just aggressively average--with premium pricing.
