My dearest, My excursion to Ling's buffet was one i will tell for generations. the service was exceptional, the general tso chikc n was to die for, and the conversations with my friends were unforgettable. i can see myself bringing my family here some day. 10/10

Sushi rolls, steamed oysters, and the square item is one of their chocolate delicious desserts.

Buffet Asian food, sushi, and even a hibachi in the back for dinner service. It's got great taste and quick service with a beautiful place inside! I've found what I like to eat by going here. But... Sadly the Koi fish there seem to get mistreated. I've seen kids throwing coins at the fish a few times and there are always a few dollars in cents inside the pond.

My son loved it all.

One of the best Chinese buffets I've ever been to. Not the largest one, but they make sure to focus on the classics. They have a large selection of fresh sushi, hibachi and all different types of classic Chinese dishes. The restaurant is always clean, plenty of seating, and my son loves the beautiful koi fish pond. We came here recently and they even had Christmas insprired sushi and a little dragon on one sushi plate. Excellent attention to detail. Service is fair here. My only dilemma is we had to call over our server quite frequently and I hate doing this. The price was also pretty high for dinner in my opinion at around $16 a person but it was delicious and we left happy.

So much to choose from in thier selection of food

A friend of mine recommended this Chinese buffet restaurant in Lakeland, FL. Absolutely a good place to eat some good Chinese food. Lots of variety of food. I enjoyed the fact they had different flavors of Sushi. I love sushi. So this restaurant got a high five from me. I will be honest, there's been few places I've gone where the staff and managers are so attentive to thier customers and this place has gone beyond hospitable. They made us feel so comfortable and the waitresses that attended us could of not been more sweeter to us. Truly enjoyed her hospitality. Another thing I enjoyed was thier Koi fish. Love seeing these fish around ponds. They have a nice surroundings as you enter the restaurant. You kind of cross over a little overpass bridge and there you can see the fish. So if you happen to be around Lakeland, FL come by and try them out. There pretty good for Chinese food.

This was my 1st plate of varieties

We didn't have our regular place available because of New Years Day so we found this and I'm so…read moreglad we did. You can tell they do more take out than anything but they do have a bunch of tables inside. We were greeted so nicely and given clear soup which was tasty. Then they brought some sort of tempura crab with their house sauce I think on it. It was delicious and just a nice touch. Loved the Kani salad. Again, the house sauce or their version of spicy mayo was really tasty. We got a variety of rolls and nigiri. The only thing that anyone would say something bad about was that the nigiri was really thick. We were happy with everything though and will probably come here from now on instead of our regular place!

Where to start... okay... there is not much fancy about Fancy Q Sushi & Thai in Lakeland Florida…read more The outside is dated and faded. It is on the outside of a mall that has seen better days. Inside depending on the angle you take the photo is kinda fancy. Most fancy thing about this restaurant was the service, which was quite good. I like that they give you complimentary soup and a imitation fried crab leg app with some sauce. Although neither were very good, it was a nice touch. The soup tasted like tap water with a hint of flavor. The imitation fried crab was just meh. For the entree we shared a shrimp and scallops pad thai, a spicy tuna roll, and a Kani salad. The Pad Thai came with a ginger salad which was delicious. The Kani salad was tasty. The Pad Thai was just okay. The sauce was sweet, not very savory or sour. Pad Thai should have all those flavors. Also, it had a red sweet suace with red onions which is something I wasn't expecting. Still, it was edible and filling. And the shrimp and scallops were plentiful. For $20 it was well worth it. The spicy tuna roll was absolutely awful. It tasted fishy, had too many of those dry flakes enauthentic restaurants mix in and was bland. Literally no spice and little or no fishy tasting tuna. The worst roll I have had in recent memory. I had to spit it out. Yes, that bad. With all that said... the service was amazing and the prices are super reasonable. I would return and maybe try another roll without the flakes. Finally, for some reason, this area has really bad cell service.

Great food and service. Super quick and tasty. They even hooked me up with a free special roll.read more

First things first, the service was immaculate. The staff was friendly, quick, patient and answered…read moreall of our questions. They were prompt on refills and boxes. We were seated within 2 minutes of arriving despite having a full table and the place was spotless. The tables were clean, the floor was clean, and despite its small location it didn't feel cramped. The only complaint I have about the place itself was the other guests were obnoxiously loud and nothing was done about it. Not talking wise but I mean watching videos on their phones loud. The food however was a hit and a miss. My group and I shared our dishes so we could try multiple things. While the plating was beautiful and clean the menu was sparse on information and relied heavily on you knowing what these dishes were beforehand or asking questions. The hibachi was wonderful, very flavorful and well cooked and arrived within minutes. The soup and salad was fresh and probably the best part of the entire meal. The sushi however, which is what this place is known for according to those we asked beforehand, was the worst part of the meal. The second worst sushi I've ever had actually (the worst being Publix). The fish was soggy and flavorless, to the point it was literally sliding off the rice and many of us just abandoned it altogether. Usually I can tell what type of fish I'm eating from one bite. I could not with Fancy Q. ETA: I forgot to mention the sushi also took a very long time to arrive. Over 30 minutes. Overall I feel the best parts were the service and soup/salad. I am uncertain if I would go back. Perhaps with a large group again but not on my own. I would be willing to try different locations.

Comfortable, Unique, Delicious, Great location! INSIDE:…read moreunique decor, Japanese, though American hits playing, cozy, very clean. SERVICE: I was seated quickly, given gracious service and attention and had a smooth experience. The food comes out quickly and the servers move quickly to keep everything harmonious. THE FOOD: although a smaller portion than anticipated, i enjoyed the plating and the appetizers. The soup was classic and the salad was fantastic! The dressing is perfect and the vegetables crunchy! The fried rice and noodles were a bit underwhelming, more oil than I'm used to and the vegetables were overcooked. The salmon was tender and melts in the mouth. Skin on. I was very amazed to see vegetables occasionally cut into shapes. Overall, I'm impressed by details such as the fish bowl bar, soup, salad, shapes in vegetables, location, and service. I would like to see the taste improve on the entree. I understand the portions and price are fair due to location.

Got into Lakeland a bit late but still needed supper. This came up on Yelp and was an easy walk…read morefrom the Terrace. Sign out front says it is under new management. The Daisy use to be call Tsunami. Huge bar and large restaurant. Nice interior with a mix of typical Asian art and visit colors with cool led lights for accents. I rally came for a roll or two but Jacki suggested I try Pho. I had never tried so we discussed it and I chose this with the shrimp. It came with a fish sauce which was delicious and then Jacki recommended I try it with some Hoisin sauce. Wow! Awesome. Filling but not overwhelming and not spicy which is key this late. Super friendly folks and delicious food.
