    We tried Kouyou for the first time tonight. It was just the two of us. Located just off Riverside on Sample Road, this venue is easily seen. There is plenty of parking available. After being seated we checked out the buffet. The crab bowl was empty. We asked that it be filled and went to other areas. After the third time of asking they finally put out more crab. By then we had tried other areas. A huge assortment was displayed. Everything we tried had gotten cold. The fried items were no longer crispy, the wontons were displayed separately from the soup and dried out. Dessert was displayed at the opposite end of the buffet from ice cream and fruit. I almost missed the nice assortment of cakes and cookies.

    This is my second time here. Both times the over vibe is cooler looking than a lot of the Asian buffets in town. The sushi selection is the best. Though the selection of food is large it was just barely warm with every thing I picked from the "hot" buffet area. I would order the hibachi grill if you want temperature hot foods The price for lunch,$15.95 and $25.95 for dinner. The service is good for a buffet and the cleanliness of the dining room is appreciated. Though the serving tongs good be cleaned or switched out more often.

    We went here today for our first time and the place is not only big but so nice! It definitely looks like an elevated buffet not your average place which we loved. We got there at 12:30 and service was top notch. The food was so fresh and delicious. A HUGE sushi variety! Delicious hot foods. Ugh. So yummy. We were extremely impressed with this place and would come here again for sure! Highly recommend!

    We visited Kouyiu Buffet in Sample Rd for the first time on Dec. 25. The facilities appear, with a combination of asian and modern decor. The ambiance was relaxed and quiet and the place was very clean. We were a party of four and were promptly shown to a table. We place our drink orders and everyone started on the journey of finding what to eat. They had a nice selection, including sushi, hibachi, meats, crab legs, and pastries. Everyone in our party found something to enjoy. The service was great as our waitress keep our table clear and our glasses full. I am not sure if we paid dinner price or not, but the price was about $28 per person plus drinks and taxes. They added 18% gratuity to our bill automatically with the option to leave more. Overall, we had a great experience at Kouyiu and would recommend.

    We cane to Kouyou Buffet on Christmas day. It was the only game open in town. I thought it would be full, but it wasn't. There was actually only a few parties so we were seated right away. I don't do buffets very often, but as far as I'm concerned, this is a pretty good one. Food was fresh, and I saw someone checking often. I had hibachi, and some fruits, but there have lots of selections. They also had crab legs and oysters. I didn't have them, but they were over ice and kept cold. One thing I always have the few times I make it to a Chinese buffet is green tea ice cream, it didn't disappoint. Service was very good. We were given a nice Christmas themed box with candy and a keychain when we left. If you like Chinese buffets, this place is pretty nice.

I have lost a lot of weight and was very selective with how much I took until I ran across the boneless spare ribs. These are usually not available at other Chinese buffets during lunch time. I was surprised to see them. They were delicious. Our waitress kept our water glasses full and took out empty plates immediately. The service was outstanding. My friend enjoys lo mien. She said that Hibachi Buffet was her favorite. I saw pieces of cooked salmon and decided to try a piece. I am not a lover of cooked fish and was going outside my comfort zone. It was edible but I still am not a lover of cooked fish. Too bland for me. Their hot and sour soup was tasty. I returned to savor more boneless pork spare ribs. There were plenty of dishes to select from. I will be returning soon.

Appreciated my 20% tip, even though its serve-yourself. Thought I'd be generous. People are trying to make a living. The food was less than perfect; hence my two-star rating. The sour soup was great. The white fish was good-it was warm. The rest of the food in the buffet was mildly warm to cold (mostly cold), some-what bland, and basically unsatisfying. Piece of breaded chicken was like a shard of leather. That stayed on my plate, ugh. Although the food 'looks' appetizing, I left, well, unsatisfied and disappointed. The bill was $32 for two, without the tip. Although Panda Express is more of a fast-food thing, but the same idea as this restaurant, PE would have been much more satisfying and cheaper. BTW - the ice cream was not flavorful like you would expect ice cream to be in a restaurant. It was okay, but nothing to write home about.

    VERY GOOD ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI!…read more Walked in to TemakHouse on a whim because my boyfriend and I were looking to have sushi for dinner. His conditions were: 1) All you can eat 2) Nearby My conditions were: 1) Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice was on the all you can eat menu 2) Good reviews on Yelp I happened to really like everything we ordered, and everything they served us. . . It was funny that every time we ordered our rolls, even though they were the same roll, they came different every time. For example: we ordered the 'Fancy Roll' twice, and one time it came without cucumbers, and the other time it did. (It's supposed to come with cucumbers.) (I maybe thinking of another roll from the menu but this is an example that happened.) Another thing to note is that this is a Brazilian x Japanese establishment, which my boyfriend and I didn't know. Basically everyone was only speaking Portuguese, even the hostess greeted us and farewelled us in Portuguese. I'm giving TemakHouse 4-stars because they had wonderful service, great food, lots of options, everything was pretty to look at, and clean, my only criticism is the prices, and the inconsistentcy in the sushi rolls.

This was the most amazing experience of flavors and tastes. Our server Murillo did all the ordering for us and he explained every dish he brought out, starting with appetizers then entrees and finally an array of desserts. Today we went for the all you can eat sushi for lunch for around $40 per person, and what an amazing bargain. I am a fan of the establishment forever now. First time there and will be going back often. Do yourself a favor and try this place out. Don't forget to request Murillo as your server and just let him keep bringing different sushi to the table.

That guy must really get around to a lot of Asian buffets. With General Tso, you pretty much know what you are going to get. This would have been a 4 star review. However our entitled waitress changes it to 1 star. Our tab for 3 was just below $60. The waitress brought the tab back for my tip and signature. While chit chatting, I thought I would only leave a small cash tip because hey....THIS IS A BUFFET and what exceptional "service" is happening? Side note: (Ever wonder why most buffets including Golden Corral keep the beverages including water unavailable for customer refills? It's so wait help, can re-fill your water or bring you a beverage. They certainly do not bring any food to your table. And...yeah they hope you will tip for them bringing you water. ) Back to the story: I filled out the total, and crossed out the tip line as I would tip very little...in cash. I'm pretty sure waitresses even prefer a cash tip anyway. So the moment I filled out the bottom line, the waitress rushed to the table and said "no you are wrong and pointed to the suggested amounts of 20-30% or whatever is "suggested." I told her I don't typically tip very much as this is a BUFFET restaurant. Buffet restaurant meaning I get my own food and select what I want without the assistance of any waitress. Incredibly, she wouldn't leave our table and continued to insist I fill in a tip amount on the visa receipt. Frustrated and upset I told her to "go away" as she was hovering over our table. Unless this tip is really a mandatory charge, like some higher end restaurants are beginning to state on menus these days, I will tip accordingly. The not cash tip ended on the visa card at $5. Who knows what she was thinking? Maybe she though we were Europeans who do not typically tip? Maybe since it was a Monday evening business was quite dead and maybe her boss expects her to make her income from tips instead of any small hourly rate. If that's the case, perhaps the boss needs to re-think business practices? Regardless, this was the most aggressive self-entitled waitress I have ever experienced and will not be back. If the ambiance was improved a bit, I think there is great potential. There are even several selections of ice cream, desserts, as well as sushi etc.
