They have turned this into "table" service, rather than order at the desk. Table service is ordering via QR code though. Hubs had sesame chicken, I ordered orange chicken, and we split chicken egg rolls. I also got a mango boba tea. Portions were pretty big, so we said we would split an entree next time. I definitely would skip the egg rolls next time, the wrap was a little too thick for me and lacked flavor. I'd also skip the boba and go elsewhere for that. Service was exceptionally quick. I would come back and try some different items or come at lunch for the specials.

Overall a good experience at The Feast! Parking lot is large and entrance lines are separated by…read moreparties 4 or less and parties larger than 4 which makes it more efficient to pay. We came a few minutes before noon (their opening time) on a Sunday afternoon. I highly recommend coming a bit early because they were already letting people in and by 12:30, there was a definite line and restaurant looked full. They had an area for tables that sat around 4 people and then a different area that held larger parties. Cost is $35.99/adult with tip and drinks a part of the price. Overall a great value. I honestly expected the place to be bigger but it is a nice sized restaurant. Parts of the buffet definitely had some congestion. The food we enjoyed: the stir fried lobster, the grilled oysters, pea shoots, and sashimi were our favorites. The boba ingredients and ice cream cooler were great. The kalbi was flavorful but the meat was a bit tough. Average: shrimp cocktail, soups, and standard Chinese stir fries. Freshly made crepes only included whipped cream. Misses: dungenous crabs were dry and old, dumplings were meh, cakes were dry. We saw but didn't taste: the noodle bar, Mongolian Bbq, drink bar, shaved ice, cotton candy. Lots of choices that are beyond the "typical " Chinese buffets. Service was great. She continually came by to clear our plates. Bathrooms are a bit small for a large restaurant. We would come again but it wasn't an OMG for us. Worth trying once though.

They have the restaurant split into buffet sections.

Instead of having to commit to a single roll, I enjoyed being able to try one of everything. Now for the Minnesota nice, yet honest, part of the review: I know how tricky temperature regulation is in a buffet, so I want to give grace, but unfortunately they failed. The cold things were actually cold (yay), but of the foods I tried, the ones that were supposed to be fried, like the wontons, were soggy and "hot" foods like rice, cheese sticks, and some of the meats were cold (prime rib, pork belly). The inside does feel upscale and I can see how it would be a nice place to go with a large group or if you want to eat more clams, crab, etc this could be a great spot, but unfortunately, we will likely not be back as we found the quality of most of the foods lacking.

I've been craving a seafood boil since being down in NOLA, and this one had great reviews. While…read morethe staff was super nice, I have to admit that the boil was lacking, when compared to the southern original. The shrimp was a little more rubbery than I like, but the crab legs were great. I think those were my favorite. Its hard to get any kind of fresh fresh seafood, and you can't get fresh crawfish to the Great Lakes area, so I have to remember that here. It definitely covered my seafood craving, but keep in mind its more of a Midwest style boil than the southern type if you pop in.

Had an earlier dinner, service was good and started filling up as it got closer to 6pm. Our server…read morewas friendly, checked on us but gave us space to enjoy our meal and conversation. The raspberry lemondrop doesn't pack a punch alcohol wise but I enjoyed it. Portions are large and definitely easily sharable. There was good lighting at each table to be able to see your dinner companions but dimmer throughout to give a sense of privacy, not sure if that's what they were going for but it was nice. Ample parking since it's in a strip mall. My only critique is that the containers for leftovers are the compostable clamshell containers; great for the environment but for butter and fat heavy foods. The containers absorbed the oils and leaked onto each other and the bag relatively quickly so keep that in mind if you're taking your pasta home without a bag or your car seats may be stained.

Basket of bread comes with the meals. Pizzas are only ok... so just come for the pasta dishes. Daily special dishes are great as well. Happy Hour: very few places offer 3-6p HH 7 days a week. This is one of the rare spots that do! Decent HH menu with $5 house wines. Granted, the house wines are very basic, but their regular wine list has some nice options and are fairly priced. Service: prompt, friendly, overall good experiences with the service. Ambience: it's a cozy, warm vibe with fireplace for cold days. It can be cold if you're seated by the door. Plenty of booths to request when you rsvp. Making reservations is a good idea on weekends. Located in an unassuming strip mall, this is a gem of a find. Would absolutely come back.

I still lost things in my pot but they still tasted good even after cooking for 30 minutes! There are an impressive number meat, vegetable, seafood, tofu and other items that can be cooked in the hot pot or on the grill. And they are delivered by robot! The marinated meats are great. I also got a lot of vegetables from the salad bar to cook in the hot pot, which are a great complement to the grilled meats. The fruit on the salad bar was surprisingly ripe, even out of season. Creating your own sauce is also fun. I happened to go within 3 days of my birthday, so my meal was free. Amazing birthday deal!

As a vegan-leaning pescatarian, there were plenty of options- including several tofu styles. It's all you can eat, with a plot twist- if you take food you don't ear you may end up paying extra, which makes sense. There are plenty of sauces, sides and a few desserts all included. so much to eat- bring your appetite. It's a great place for a group -and at least when we were there the birthday girl or boy gets to eat free if there are two other adults with you. Enjoyable and tasty spot for a big meal.
