    OMG if you are visiting Portland go eat at this buffet. If you are a sushi lover this place is for YOU!! So many options. Also have fresh seafood. Fried rice, desserts, crab, the options are plentiful and abundant. Definitely a place for big groups. Definitely bring your appetite!!! Staff super nice and friendly.

    Best buffet we've experienced so far in Beaverton! Pro: -Attentive, friendly staff -Generous portions that are replenished even near closing time -Love their crab legs & honey walnut shrimp Con: -Their crab legs and butter can get a bit salty -Hot, crowded and noisy in the seating area as dining is designated to one side of the restaurant

    Environment: it was clean and spacious. They made the restaurant very bright which was nice (compared to the former place which was a bar/pub). Staff: very friendly and attentive. When we were low on napkins and hot water, she refilled it very quickly. She also cleaned up our finished plates at a great pace, too even though it was busy. Food: we went during a weekday when they opened. We were afraid that we would get leftover foods but overall, the foods I ate were fresh and piping hot. I ate a lot of sushi, seafood, and veggies. The fried foods were overall good, especially their fried fish. Those who like seafood would enjoy this place because aside from fried seafood, they also had steamed and baked. I liked their muscles. It was tender and no sand. The clams were my least favorite as they were super tiny and it felt like I was chewing gum. Veggies were fine and had a good variety. Sushi's rice was surpassingly not bad as sushi at buffets are usually hard and dry but this was fine and bite sized so I didn't feel full after eating the rolls. The ice cream had a nice chocolate flavor and the oranges were juicy and sweet. I know that not a lot of people enjoyed it but it was good when I went and everything these days are expensive. For $20, there's a good variety of foods that I personally enjoyed. Also for birthday, you eat free on the exact day with the purchase of two other adults.

    Was able to beat the crowd on the weekend and got to finally check this spot out. Inside is big and open with high ceiling, pretty decors, and ton of seatings. I like the straightforward layout of the buffet lines. They also have so many variety of food and options to choose from: sushi, Chinese, Korean etc. Very surprised by the abundance of seafood. Some items were better than others. I'd recommend their chicken and beef, both options were tender. The fried items were best when they came out fresh, of course. Desserts looked meh at first but actually were delicious! The ice cream and mousse cups were our faves. For the price, diversity of options, service, and quality, this was a very good and fun dining spot.

    Dessert favorites!

    My husband and I couldn't decide what to eat so we came here for the variety and never tried it for lunch on a weekday. We came around 1:30 on a Tuesday and I was surprised it was still busy. The place always look neat and clean especially for a Buffet. The waiter was very attentive. In fact all the staff is very friendly. The varitey of the food line is very typical of what you would see at any buffet but their food is actually good. It has flavor and not everything tastes the same. I have to deduct a star because they didn't have my salt and pepper shrimp. But it was actually good and we left satisfied. The desserts were actually good too.

    Before my Portland trip, I saw the Instagram reels for this place and a friend that moved to Portland also sent me info. about Hiyaku Buffet, she mentioned that she went with her family and they all enjoyed it. After checking out the Yelp page, I decided to go here for dinner and my friend joined too! Nice and very new Buffet just opened up a few months ago, reminds me of Vegas but I have to get it in my head that we are in Portland. The prices are not bad for dinner, $27.99 during midweek, Weekends are $29.99 and weekday lunch is cheaper @ $19.99 but just one seafood item. For the price, there's a huge selection of everything ( Hot foods, grill items, sushi, ribs, dim sum, desserts, and nice variety of seafoods including shrimps, calamari, snow crab legs and oysters, I already had crab legs on my mind and plans to attack that first. The only junk thing about the crab legs , serve chilled. There is no butter, which I asked the waitress, she was nice to bring me some. I rather have boiled/hot crab legs but this is fine. The crab legs goes fast but they do refill them. I try to avoid buffets, tend to over-indulge but why not we are on vacation?! I didn't get to try most of the selection on the buffet line , but enjoyed the items that I got. We all enjoyed our buffet meal. They were very busy on a Thursday night, every table was taken. The place was nice, spacious, but loud. Service was great despite how busy they are, seem like they are short staff but wait staff are trying their best! & for desserts, I really enjoyed the cups of ice cream, from the fridge. I tried the strawberry, orange, and vanilla, I like to mix vanilla with the other flavors, what a refreshing treat to melt down all the food I just ate, hehe. There's a birthday special promotion, free meal with 2 paying adults on day of your birthday. Keep in mind, drinks ( tea, soft drinks) are not included in the buffet price. Overall, you either love it or you don't but for me and the other half, we would go back when we visit again especially for the crab legs, can't go wrong with that!! Oh I've seen the Instagram reels & Korean Momma approves and the ribs which the other half tried, he says its good & falls of the bone! Enjoy & Happy Eating, this is what we all love to do, Foodies!!

    In most circumstances, I avoid buffets. Especially Chinese buffets with "sushi," but this place is spectacular. It's clean, open, with a lot of seating. The seating is separated from the food area, which is a bit different than the Vegas buffets I'm used to. It's a walk to get to certain foods, but you're gonna need it! Note that lunch is $19.99/person and does not have crab legs - those are for dinner. All of the food, especially the peanut butter chicken (don't skip!), teriyaki chicken skewers, and select sushi rolls were superb. In general, everything was great. The dessert leaves a bit to be desired, but there's individual ice creams. Those are good. Our server was a bit off, which is the only reason for 4 stars. They were nice enough, but looked a bit like they rolled out of bed, were scattered and overly talkative. We'll be back!

    Food was slightly better than average buffets but was priced on the high end. The walls were covered in AI images and bible verses which isnt for everyone.

    The first time I drove past this place at night, I noticed the parking lot was full (opening night). The second drive-by noticed, wow there's a lot of people in the dining area. Again the lot was full. Third time, still full, but said OK I gotta check it out! Well, after researching online, I decided "Great, it's new! And I'm doin' the $19.99 weekday lunch buffet!" And why the hell not! Actually, work decided, let's do a team lunch here. So, perfect! Here's a bit more about this new buffet: # Parking # Plenty of spots, so issues. Although you may park farther and deal with a lot of folks already waiting in line if you arrive during the typical lunch rush or dinner hours. # Buffet Stations # LOTS to choose! From one end they have the seafood or Korean section with shrimp and clams. Kim chi and seafood salad mixes. Near the middle was more Japanese nigiri and various types of sushi. And more towards the right is where the Chinese style noodles, steamed fish, steamed veggies, and buns were. Further in the back were the soups, dessert pastries, and an ice cream fridge. I practically took one of each item and was satisfied with majority of what i tried. Especially loved the crispy wings! # Dining Area & Service # Plenty to small tables, and long tables for larger groups. They even have booths along the sides. We were seated in the large dining hall, so I felt there was enough spacing between tables even with heavy foot traffic. As for our waiter, he did a great job refilling our water cups and drinks, and more importantly taking our used plates away. # Final Verdict & a Pro Tip # I'm willing to do lunch here again, simply because of price! With how much food costs nowadays, this buffet was worth it imo. Show up right when they open at 11am, and you'll pick at the good stuff ready to be consumed. Their chicken and pork items were tender and their nigiri was clean! Truly a three-star kind of place, but I'll be generous about it. Minus one star for the sushi that contained cream cheese. It's unnecessary but I understand the target audience. Enjoy!

    I'm gonna start with this: I'm not a huge buffet fan. So take that into consideration. The food was slightly better than most buffets like this. Slightly. I tried almost everything but went back for the salmon sashimi & the kalbi beef. Specifically the salmon sashimi, not any of the other salmon options because the sashimi most closely resembled salmon belly, which I love. I went back for the kalbi because that's always one of my favorites, but it did end up being a little salty. I should've grabbed some rice but I didn't want to fill up on it! Our server was awesome. She took great care of us and was super nice. Loved chatting it up with her! The space itself is a little overwhelming. It was super crowded and we were sat in their giant room with giant ceilings. It was loud and boisterous. I personally didn't mind too much, but just a heads up. Can be overstimulating.

    Sushi, green beans, buns, gypza, tempura

    Drove past this place a few days ago and saw a line out the door and knew I had to try. I went to lunch which was very reasonable at $20.00. It had been a while since I had gone to a buffet and can't deny that this place was super nice, everything felt clean and gorgeous sitting areas. Much bigger than I had anticipated from the exterior. I had a little bit of everything. There were definitely some stand outs. I'll start with the one downside was the sushi. I dont know if I just had a bad day but some of it just didnt taste very fresh. So after trying some I skipped it and stuck with the hot food. And wow! I was in heaven. Their Katsu, fried fish, tempura were superb. Their buns and dumplings. I could eat a plate of just gyoza and green beans! And their dessert selection was great some of the cakes a little dry but ehh not the worst. Their many ice-cream were created as well. The staff was super attentive taking plates pretty quickly once set aside and just kind. Ill definitely try them again at that good price point.

    We finally decided to try this place and got here about 10 minutes before opening on a Wednesday. We were second in line and the line got pretty long, maybe three or four minutes before opening time. Everyone in line still got brought in. Oh overall, didn't feel like there was a whole lot of options, but the food felt pretty fresh. I wish there was more sushi options as well as some sashimi. I really like the peanut butter chicken. Looking forward to try the dinner menu sometime. For $20 lunch buffet. It was overall pretty good.

    Went Saturday at 4:30pm and there was a line of 20 people ahead of us. The wait wasn't too bad, about 20-30 minutes. Soda is not included. Service was really prompt and friendly. Food choices were good with short ribs , cocktail shrimp, tempura, clams and all tasty and great. I try that they are constantly refreshing the food so it is hot and fresh. The crab legs were too salty for my liking. Don't get the steak unless you want to put your jaws through some exercise. Overall, the experience was good, some hits and some misses, but a good solid option for all you can eat.

Vanakkam brought an absolute feast down from Portland to Eugene for our wedding. They not only transported a huge buffet, but also did live dose (dosa) and even added a live appetizer station last minute, fearing that the appetizers would be soggy. That means they were cooking on a huge griddle, cranking out crispy dose, frying paneer 65, wok-tossing gobi manchurian, all on the spot. Every single dish was SO GOOD. Our guests said it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. People are still raving about it. We had many guests from India who were thrilled as well. Ganesh at Vanakkam was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. So responsive, kind and understanding, and his staff worked incredibly hard. It honestly blew us away. You should hire Vanakkam for your special event. 5 stars is not enough. 20 maybe. (This event just happened, but I'll update this review with mouthwatering pictures as soon as I have some...)

    We are blessed to have a number of excellent Indian food options in the Beaverton / Hillsboro area…read more While searching for a lunch buffet option, we came across Vanakkam PDX and decided to give it a try. This restaurant, located in a strip mall area, doesn't really seat that many people, but for less than $16, you can experience a really amazing lunch buffet option here. Seriously, for the price of your average food cart entree these days, you can have an all-you-can-eat, high-quality, high-variety lunch. And this restaurant doesn't just churn out the basic stuff, either. You might get a bhindi masala, or goat biryani, along with some of the more typical plates like butter chicken. They mix it up, which is the sign of a great buffet. Honestly, they do something truly special with their tandoori chicken. I'm normally pretty lukewarm on that entree, but Vanakkam's version is a really sensational one. Samosas, Naan, Raita, etc. all available too. I hope they can keep this going at this price, and if so, we'll soon be a regular, no doubt!

The shop was quiet with some customers picking up to go orders. We went to the counter and ordered two non-veg (chicken) thali plates, a mango lassi and a chai masala. I also asked to confirm that they don't have their buffet anymore. While we were waiting, we noticed that most of the tables were dirty with food smudges and left over trash presumably from the day before since it had just opened. I tried to clean our table with paper napkins and water with little effect. So we decided to just deal with it. My husband went to the restroom to wash his hands and told me the restroom was in need of cleaning as well. As our food came. We noticed the sides on the thali plates were different too. They used to have two side dishes with cucumber, tomato, onion and crackers. The new plates were more plain, not bad, but not the same variety. The food tasted pretty good, I noticed the curries were spicer as well. That makes us wonder if there was a change of ownership/management once Desi Bites moved. It's such a shame the Desi Bites we remembered is gone..
