I mainly come for lunch, and with tax and tip included, it comes to about $24 or $25 a person. A fair price considering the sushi selection is decent and you also have a Mongolian grill to order from. That said, this place does often see large parties come at once and this can lead to issues where certain popular items run out for a period of time. It's not always, but pretty annoying when it does happen. I suggest people give this place a try. It's good value for what you pay, and as long as you come with reasonable expectations most should leave satisfied. read more

The hot food NOT HOT! (Just the soup). Use digital thermometer to check the pans for holding temperature. Around 5 PM and onward. Health department concern. read more

Been here once...and I don't I would be coming back, unless I really have to. Its not the best buffet that's out there, but for the price and if your a fan of greesy foods, then its the place to be. Otherwise, i'll pass read more

King Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My first time here , not as good as everyone suggested. Food choices were less than expected and there was a continuous unpleasant smell coming from the hibachi grill area? Fried crabs/broccoli beef tasted weird. Assorted shrimps, deep fried chicken wings, salmon sashimi were alright. I didn't eat any fruits as I saw the staff using bare hands to cut the honeydews. The price has gone up to near $27 on a weekday dinner. I would suggest Asia buffet at Buena Park/Gold Hibachi buffet . read more

I have been coming here since they opened the restaurant. Never have I experienced this before . The waiter told us to pay at the entrance because we were splitting the check three ways . Then this one waiter starts shouting at us to pay with him . He made it seem like we were trying to dine and dash . Embarrassing. My gf tried to explain what the other waiter said , but he was being rude and not listening. Racial profiling ! Is what I call that . Not all Hispanic and Black people dine and dash ! Embarrassing and this is my family's favorite buffet ! read more

Good tasty , thank you for your service. Everything was good. Lou was great and nice. We were greeted good :)

Don't go here. Horrible. There are so many buffets in LA within a 10 mile radius, why come here? My mistake.

My family and I go here often, especially for occasions! The staff is very friendly and professional! Food is pretty good and a lot of options. The overall environment of the restaurant is great... love the fact that they remodeled! read more

Great location on Western, a block south of Sunset Blvd. Plenty of customer parking spaces in front & side of restaurant. I like to go for lunch, close to 11:30am opening time as the food are freshly made. Great value for all you can eat buffet in LA area. They have a nice assortment of Chinese food, American Appetizers, Sushi & Seafood. They also have a Mongolian BBQ grill where you pile your plate with your favorite vegetables, meat & a cook will stir fry everything on their hot flat grill. There have an assortment of marinaded meat which you select & they grill while you wait. To wrap up your meal, nice assortment of ice cream & dessert bar to satisfy your sweet tooth. The restaurant is clean & organized. Perfect for a quick meal without long waits if you come early at opening. I prefer to go during the weekdays as weekends gets crowded. Nice restaurant to bring large groups with Big appetites. read more

Me gusta mucho la comida de kings buffet, el lugar es muy limpio y tienen variedad el restaurante es amplio

Dirty restaurant. The icecream area has cross contamination. My kids have peanut allergy and they had a bad reaction. The servers were negligent. Will not come again. read more

This place is good for highway robbery. It was our 2nd-time visit to that buffet. It's not how I was expecting. Food quality: 1/5 Very bad quality food. The chow mien was cooked with old veggies. Bad smell can even Finish it. Most of the items are greasy of. Only the shrimp coconut is good. Chicken taste pretty old and frozen. Sushi is the worst. Also the dessert items probably 1 days old. They're not fresh. Fruits are okay. Ice cream are mixed with dough. Environment: 1/5 Seating arrangement is pretty congested. The spoons are maybe at least 5/6 years old. I don't find them safe to use. Pricing: 1/5 I have an issue with the pricing. First-time it was dinner charged us 14.99, last time it's 18.99. I don't know why they fluctuate their price. Didn't saw any pricing list as well. Satisfactory: 1/5 No I'm not satisfied at all. The overall experience was bad Overall Rating: 4/20 My yelp rate : 1/5 No, I'all probably will ignore that place next time. read more

King Buffet - Chicken, sushi, roll and etc - Buffets Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The flavor & selection is good, but nothing is hot or even warm. Their food warming system is lacking. This is concerning for items that might not change over as much for safety. But mostly it's just sitting down from getting your plate and being disappointed because your food is cold from the start. The pricing is high. They are also missing a few key items you expect from a Chinese buffet, Generals and Sesame chicken. But the orange chicken is very good. The chicken on the stick is crunchy and flavorful. They have a larger than average dessert and fruit selection. Overall it was good to try but due to food temperature we won't be back. And right as I was getting dessert witnessed a worker messing with food and coughed without covering her mouth :/ ugh! Crazy expensive, see receipt picture! read more

King Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Poor service food with zero favor! I was a fan before but the last few years it has changed.

The restaurant is very good,the service is very good,the seafood is very fresh,and it's perfect for family gatherings,the price is good.

The customer service here is terrible. I had a party of 7 and the whole time we were there, we were being stared at by multiple waiters and not with smiles. The lady in the front was rude and we told her multiple times that we were not in the same party as some other people but she still tried to sit us with them. Not sure if I got a bad batch of broccoli but it tasted gross and made gag. It tasted like what dirty dish water smells like. Absolutely disgusting. Won't be returning ever again. read more

Food is poor quality. The servers were rude. I will not recommend this place to others nor visit here ever again. Conie, she said that she's a manager, even yelled at us for not having credit card chip. I took my whole family for outing and felt so unpleasant time. read more

Mostly shrimps no variety in food display. Maybe they can do better. I expected more read more

Most AYCE buffets are loaded with salt laden Chinese/Asian food and this place is no different. A favorite of my parents and now my little ones, we come here for family gatherings or when I want to bring up my blood pressure (due to the salt content, haha). The variety is good, with such niceties as snow crab legs, oysters on the half shell, Mongolian barbecue, hand scooped ice cream and a chocolate fountain. There's the typical sushi rolls and chow mien and fried rice, etc., and the ambivalent help: I asked if they had low sodium soy sauce and the waiter looked at me like I was speaking another language...wait, I was. I was speaking English... smh... It takes a while to get a drink and even longer for a refill. Parking is tight and the drivers who dine there are notorious for not giving a sh*t and ding your car, so park far or park on the street or don't bring a nice car... Weekend lunch is very crowded, with prices at $18.99/person or $1.80 per year (ages 2-10). However, for a fairly quick meal, with cotton candy ice cream and chocolate covered marshmallows and fruit for dessert, it's a relative bargain. But, you get what you pay for. Mediocre quality, ambivalent wait staff, sometimes pushy/rude patrons and a less than spacious environment. There are better AYCE places, but for one in the heart of Hollywood, it's not bad... It's not good, but it's not bad, either... 3 stars... read more

Good food, good service, and will always come back for the ambiance. It's a pleasure to always be here and feel like I never want to leave.

Probably should have checked Yelp. I found styrofoam in my shrimp by almost choking on it ! When asked if we could get a discount the server laughed at me. I've had better service at the buffet by Mac Arthur park ! read more

King Buffet - Green styrofoam I choked on! Server laughed when I asked for a discount ! I'll be reporting to the health board! Not worth $41 - Buffets Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Food was very good as always. Problem is the service. No one takes dirty plates. No one asks if you want a refill on your beverage. After you are seated, no one ever checks on you until they thing you should get your check. They have plenty of staff running around. They just don't pay any attention to you. read more

For the price and the variety this place is awesome! Don't go to a Buffet expecting 5 Star Food and Service. Go to try different things all for one great price as much as you want!! Honestly love this place and will definitely be back next time me and some friends get together! read more

I went there 2019 spring, it was so nice! Wonderful! I was thinking of this restaurant everyday during pandemic but I'm living in a place drive about 2 hours. I missing this place everyday. I want to go back now, I hope nothing changed after pandemic, I hope my favorite oyster, samon, shrimp, cribs and California roll are still there. I will go back this summer. I post a picture from last time visit in 2019. I miss them. 美美哒，棒棒哒，太好啦，你是最棒的。我2019年去的，留下了美好的回忆，现在天天想回去。 read more

It's not that bad. It's the only buffet within Hollywood And LA that has variety. Service can use a little polishing the workers need to speak English.. And they need to clean up the space a little bit. read more

Food was okay, but they deliberately added an unauthorized $6.00 tip to my take-out credit card charge, even though I wrote "$0.00" as the tip (since it was just take-out and I had filled my own box) and I had simply carried down the original total, as the Final Total. Very tacky, and they are cheaters! -- I've been there many times, but I will not go back. They may have done this in the past, but if so, this is my first time to catch it when looking at my credit card app. I'm also going to report their scheme to LAPD detectives. read more

For $26 a head for a weekday dinner and $3 a drink. I honestly expected a tiny bit more effort. There was no effort to keep serving utensils (or cooking utensils the big Japanese grill) from being cross contaminated. Desert tasted like it was at least a week old. The sashimi was still part frozen, and the utensils to serve it were also being used for the rolls which were sauced which kind of irked me. Service was mediocre at best, had a few hairs in the noodles from the grill. They also failed to use separate spatulas for my fiancée's grilled veggies when we told the cook that she was vegetarian and would have a reaction to any meat contacting her food. As for the ambiance the lighting is kind of cool but there was another diner who decided to just start filming people at the buffet line and butting in front of them to film their plates, I just wanted to get my food in peace. If you're looking for a cheap place to eat when you're drunk this is the place for you to Uber to. If you're sober just drive to the SFV or Glendale and pay the extra at a nicer buffet. Over all you get what you get for the price you pay. read more

It was one of the worst experiences ever with customer service. The waitress who has served us (name: LURA) was so rude and acted so disrespectful. We tried to give her some tips but she took it threw it on the table. We were shocked. After bringing back the check, she said "sign here" with such a rude voice. If a person has personal issues, then she shouldn't work in a customer service position. She spoiled the mood for all of us. It was our first and last day at King' Buffet. read more

My work colleagues who are local invited me. It's your typical Asian food buffet parlor. Ample parking. The place is spacious, clean, warm ambience. 12:30 on a Sunday; peak rush. Busy restaurants provide fresh food; 5 of us; we were seated right away. There's an array of food offerings. Sushi, assorted pot stickers and noodles, tempura, stir fry; and let's not forget, an assortment of desserts including a chocolate fondue fountain! I'm not skinny; there were some linebacker-types around me who were voraciously chomping down. Service is unrushed. Wondering how long can one stay and eat. Hmmm. The Sunday buffet is 17.99. Come on an empty belly, leave satiated; roll right back into bed! read more

Honestly, probably the worst restaurant I've ever been to. All the food was lukewarm, old, and limp. Chicken was under cooked and pink. KBBQ had brown age marks. Don't understand how this place is legally running. read more

Dear management, Please train your servers to do their jobs and check the table if the customer paid or not than just judging and asking me on the way out if I paid? I'm a regular here and this was the first time it happened and I feel very offended! All they had to do was check the table if I left cash! I love your food, but as a regular this was my worst experience even when I tip 20%! The next time I come back I will confront you manager about this. I get that people have walked out before, but all the servers I see all they do is stand around talking! read more

Wow, The food was not hot and some dishes were frickin COLD. I spoke with another patron at the ice cream bar he agreed food was cold. My daughter said sushi was tasteless. She only ate one bite and we both were done. It was clean, well lite and staff was friendly but never again read more

Mongolian grill! Random bbq! Those were the shining stars at this restaurant. The Chinese buffet was mediocre at best and if I had not eaten at the grille I would have been pissed. 100% over priced. Adults and 10 year olds pay the same $19.99 dinner price. Whack and weak. But if u like Mongolian grill with a few side grill items and don't mind overpaying, then come on over... read more

This is probably the worst buffet I've ever been to. I shouldn't be surprised though because it is on the cheaper side. The food is mediocre. The sushi section is an insult to all sushi. All the other sections were very bland. I got a bowl of soup and there was a hair in it. They have a chocolate fountain. But they only had marshmallows.. where are the strawberries and banana? The servers seem so indifferent. They didn't seem happy to be there. The only positive things about this restaurant is that it has ample parking and they have a wide selection of ice cream flavors. I won't be coming back. read more
