We really enjoyed this seafood buffet! There was a huge variety of fresh options to choose from, so everyone was able to find something they loved. My partner's favorite was the Mongolian BBQ station--the selection of ingredients was practically limitless, and everything tasted fresh. The price was also very reasonable for the quality and variety offered. We'd definitely come back! read more

So why the mixed reviews? Let me break it down for you, as I've been there for both lunch and dinner. SERVICE: The main lady, who I'm assuming is the manager, has an unusual seating arrangement system. When you get there and pay, the cashier will tell you it's a 10-minute wait. Meanwhile, no one else is in the lobby waiting, and the interior of the restaurant isn't busy. The main lady is the one who seats you. The service staff is nice, but they are not "on top of it." The servers don't ask if you want drink refills. You have to tell them. They are literally there to pick up your plates and bring you drinks. Also, the poor things don't even have trays to carry the drinks. They always look miserable, like they're working a 16-hour shift but are only halfway through the lunch rush. None of them are mean; they just always look so exhausted. Additionally, the main lady doesn't speak kindly to the wait staff. She constantly seems angry at them. FOOD: They do offer a lot of variety of sushi, sashimi, korean bbq, hot foods such as a full ham, a full beef, fried fish, seafood boils, beef and broccoli, and their infamous coconut shrimp. All very tasty dishes. The hot food is hot and the cold food is cold, but they have a lot of violations reference: http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/eh/i-want-to/view-inspection-results.htm scroll to "Inspection Results", then type in "Luck Buffet" to review their food handling and temperatures. Again the food is good and tasty, but it comes with a price. The sushi is not sitting on refrigeration or ice, so any of the raw fish does not hold a temperature of 41 degrees or less. The same goes for the salad bar area, where at night they have raw oysters and cooked shrimp. The oysters had ice all around them, but according to the health inspection, their refrigeration unit is not up to standard and is not elevated off the floor. Their raw fish is also not stored properly while waiting to be made into sushi. It's just "under the counter." Similar violations were noted for their raw chicken and various other products containing cooked fish. All of this is to say that it doesn't matter how they present it; it's not at the right temperatures by the time it reaches your plate. OVERALL: I had a great time on Valentine's Day with my husband. I had been wanting to try this place for dinner for quite some time, and we didn't want a fussy, overpriced Valentine's dinner. This place seemed like a great option. I had eaten there a month prior for lunch for the first time, and it was nice, but I didn't have any of the additional items they served for dinner. This time, they had all the options available, and it seemed nice; however, within 24 hours, I became violently ill from food poisoning, and my husband just wasn't feeling great either. I suffered for four days with fevers, rashes, and everything expelling from my body. When I looked up their infractions, it suddenly made sense. The choice, and the risk, is ultimately yours! read more

Hello everyone Today is August 17 and I came to eat at luck buffet I felt really discriminated The workers gave me really bad vibes and racist vibes. I couldn't even eat my food comfortable or enjoy the food it was not even hot it was cold not even tasty the soup tasted like water and then I asked for a cup of coffee and instead of them, bringing it first to me the lady had the audacity to say pay first after I paid already like lady also she comes to pick up my plates and didn't even have the energy to say excuse me, then when she is pick up the plate, she drops everything on the table right in front of Dad That's what happens when you don't say excuse me she even laughed instead of saying sorry it's called having manners and being respectful. That's all I have to say may you all have a good day:) read more

This is one of my parents' favorite buffet restaurants and they often drive here from Santa Clarita. The staff knows them and we get great and friendly customer service. Our glasses are never empty of beverages and they are so quick to take our plates as we finish them, leaving our table clean and organized. I don't know when they changed owners but the place is improved since I last saw it. It is your typical family friendly restaurant with ample seating and ample space. The restaurant was busy but now packed on a Saturday lunch rush. The food never ran out and the dishes are rotating. I like to keep it simple and grab roast at the carving station, simple veggies for sides seafood. Most of the dishes are PanAsian-inspired. Great price for what you get and how much you get at this buffet! read more

Luck Buffet - Pretty decent seafood and grill dishes for the price! - Chinese Near Me - Palmdale, California

Pretty solid buffet, I enjoyed the different selection of foods they had. They specialize in Asian foods and everything is pretty solid. My favorite was the chow mein station they have were you can customize your own. Service is pretty good as well. read more

Luck Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Palmdale, California

We haven't been to this buffet for about a year we decided to give it try well for two it was 43.79 with a discount it was 11:43 am the restaurant was very clean the girls were very sweet but with the exception of the soup everything was cold the fruit looked old I didn't bother I did get jello the I think it was a mango flavored one it was good the sushi was bad tasted fishy we no sooner left the restaurant I had to have my husband pull into a gas station every thing I ate came right out I almost didn't make it we had to hurry home to bad I'll never return most curious as to how did they have everything under steam tables yet nothing was hot?????????? read more

For me, dinner is the best time to go since food isn't limited. Unlike lunch, some foods are off limits like seafoods and meats. My SO and I originally came for lunch but when we heard about the limitations, we opted to pay for the dinner price instead which isn't bad. Drinks aren't included in the price. Most of the food that I have tried were good except the beef roast which lacked any flavor but tender enough. Some of the sushi rolls were a bit disappointing too - the rice wasn't fresh and they were kind of hard. I would come back here again and would recommend it to my friends. Prices vary between weekdays and weekends and they offer discounts to seniors and military members. This place can accommodate a lot. It wasn't busy when we went, and customer service was good. The vibe is casual, and there's plenty of parking available. read more

Rude customer service. Manager very unfriendly. Food is old and stale. Prices go up all the time. If you can't finish everything on your plate, even if it was horrible, they make a BIG DEAL OUT OF IT. They treat you like cattle on a farm. Won't be back read more

My parents enjoy this place. Every time I'm in town, we almost always take them here. Personally, for me it's ok. The sushi bar I don't trust. Does not look fresh. I stick to cooked dishes here to be safe. I've had the salmon before and it was pretty good. Their fried rice is one of my favorites. The service is ok. Not the friendliest. The cleanliness of this place is ok. They seem to have very sticky floors. My shoes will make that noise and I can feel the grip every time I walk. They do give senior discounts here. Worth it for them to eat here. read more

It's a bargain. You get what you pay for. Food is hit or miss. Wish they wiped (disinfected) the tables better. Bathroom was clean. Drinks were refilled. Also they were emptying all the pepper from the shakers into a stainless steel food container, kinda odd. Today the sushi was tasty. read more

Food served are just same with what the previous restaurant have, that got closed by GOVERNMENT HEALTH INSPECTORS before becoming LUCK BUFFET. They just changed name, same employees too. read more

Upon entering, a few staff members were arguing at the front, making it very awkward as we had to wait to the side for them to finish so that we could be seated. I honestly wanted to leave, but my kids wanted to stay. I had them look at the claw machines until we were ready to be taken to our seats. Some of the staff continued to openly argue in the dining area during the remainder of our time there. We arrived around noon, and the food selection was okay. Some items were sitting in the pans for so long that they became soggy or chewy. The tempura shrimp tasted really good when it first came out, but when I went to get some for my dad they were very hard to eat. I wish the selection was a little broader, as it is mainly seafood. None of the items were labeled. The younger lady that was making rounds to clear plates from tables was pleasant and really the only positive part of our first time experience here.. I would like to give this place a try again to hopefully have a better experience. read more

This place its horrible. Really bad service!!!!! Napkin holder dirty!!! No refills on sodas. Tables full of dirty dishes... read more

Decided to try this place and honestly it wasn't the best. There is a better buffet in Lancaster. Theres a huge variety but the sushi is a strange color. Really red " tuna ", clogged soy sauce jars, dirty dishes and napkin holders. The chow mein was greasy and has a fishy taste. For the price it's a gamble.... Good luck ! read more

I have been here a few times and the last time I came will most likely be my last. The food used to be tastier & the more I visit it's way less flavorful. The hot food was COLD despite being on warmers which was really unfortunate & should be checked more often by their staff. The place is cleaner which is a good improvement! The staff should really make sure the food is hot (super important to avoid any food illness!) & cooks should not be afraid of using seasoning in their food. read more

This restaurant is not family-oriented. We wanted to check out this place to celebrate our mother's birthday with our family. We had three families attending, for a total party of 12. My family of four arrived first and looked for a table that could accommodate our entire group. We were rudely told that a party of four could only sit at a table for four, and that any table larger than seven seats would require a 15% increase in price. When my siblings arrived, they were told the same thing. Despite there being plenty of larger tables available, the staff refused to seat us together as one family. Instead, we were told to sit separately at smaller tables, which completely defeated the purpose of celebrating a special occasion together. The staff was rude, unwelcoming, and showed no interest in accommodating our group or making our experience enjoyable. We requested a refund and took our business elsewhere. What should have been a memorable birthday celebration turned into a frustrating and disappointing experience. Based on the poor customer service and lack of hospitality, we will not be returning and would not recommend this restaurant to families looking to celebrate special occasions together. read more

The food was delicious and has amazing flavor . Service was exceptional. I have been here a couple of times. Not one time I have been dissatisfied , I would highly recommend . Great place for the family to spend time with and enjoy good food . Prices are great and I love how friendly the restaurant employees were. Music was great and appropriate for family gatherings. read more

Luck Buffet - Steak and Mongolian noodles. Fire - Chinese Near Me - Palmdale, California

Ok service but the food quality is trash and the selection is limited. We went there with a big appetite after a full day of shopping and were pleasantly surprised to find there wasn't a wait and were seated immediately. Given it's a Chinese buffet I anticipated lots of shellfish, etc but everything else was seasoned with nothing but salt and pepper and steamed to the point of becoming chewy. Still hungry and not to be deterred, I made my way over to the Mongolian BBQ station. Typically it's hard to go wrong with that but things only got worse from there. The meat was unlabeled (is it beef or is it lamb? Chicken? Even they weren't sure). And there were only a few veggies to choose from (no raw garlic, scallions, broccoli, etc). I've driven past this place nearly every day for years, even when it closed for new ownership/renovations so I finally gave it a shot. Will not be going again. read more

I had the dinner buffet. Everything was great. I have been to many buffets. This is by far the best. I highly recommend this place. They have reasonable prices. read more

The food was cold and didn't taste very good. There wasn't much of a variety but the service was okay.

I went on 12/10 at lunch time and was not satisfied, the buffet food was cold, not tasty and just sitting there for too long. I saw a dirty dish plate. The only good food there is the sushi, they have a good selection of sushi read more

Luck Buffet - Dirty plate! Ugh, very disgusting and dissatisfying - Chinese Near Me - Palmdale, California

Honestly the food is good and the price is really unbeatable. The staff is super great and they're on top of it to make sure that your drink cup is always full and your empty plates are removed so there is space on the table for more plates. Been here few times and had no issues. They have variety of foods and deserts. It's definitely worth a visit. read more

The weekend/evening buffet is a great deal, but stick to the sushi, oysters, and wok stations. These are great quality and fresh. Most of the other food items are not so nice. Weird over sweet horchata that I should not have ordered, stick to ice tea. read more

Food and service was good, very clean, very nice variety of food. What was unpleasant was the manager causing a stir as to our seating arrangement. She was very disrespectful and disrupted our family gathering at the onset. Fortunately the service attendant was very pleasant and smoothed the experience over. We will definitely go again, but I hope the next time, the manager does not get involved. read more

It was great food was really good the staff looked over us well I recommend this place

First off I'm not a picky eater.., They made us sat by the restroom and it smell like strong sewer water and the food was not good at all it made my stomach hurt so I tried trying the soup and they all smell like dirty dish washer and tap water I was very disappointed and embarrassed that I took my date there smh I don't recommend lucky buffet... read more

their policies don't make sense. they're very greedy & will charge extra for everything. their staff is rude. came with a family of 10+ people. the host was going to charge us an extra 15% just to be seated together. this was in the early afternoon, there were a bunch of empty tables, so it didn't make sense. we decided to pay separately and were seated in separate booths. when we tried to sit at each other's tables, the staff gave us a hard time about it. they watched us the entire time. it was uncomfortable because there were a couple servers literally standing across the room facing our table like Michael Myers. they did collect our plates, but never refilled our drinks (which are not included with the meal, it's a separate charge) we asked for a water and never got it. we had a pregnant woman with us, she was asking the staff questions about some of the dishes (because she's pregnant and also has food allergies) they were very impatient and unaccommodating to her needs. they started transitioning into dinner service early. it's supposed to start at 3:30, but they began putting out the dinner food at 3. SOME people in my group got dinner items, but they tried to charge ALL of us the extra dinner fee (mind you, we all paid and were seated separately). this policy should have been explained before we paid. we let them know about the error before leaving, but they gave us a hard time about it and refused to correct our receipts. so we refused to pay for any of the extra charges. they told us not to come back, we weren't planning to anyways. their service is trash. their food isn't all that great to be doing all that. DO NOT EAT HERE. read more

Food & Service are great compared to sakura buffet, I think this place needs interior remodeling feels old and dark

Great sushi and octopus and beef broccoli. Desserts are great. Almond cookies and fruit at the end for dessert and waitress was very nice.

All nice looks good , friendly and helpful staffs, lots of choice steak and seafood etc

This was definitely a waste of my $105 dollars for 4 people. Food was just bad all the way around. Will not be coming back here ever.

The oysters tasted like flavorless fishy mush and most of the sushi and seafood were really old and probably sat out for a long time. The fried bananas tasted and smelled really spoiled. At least the jello was good. One star. read more

I came to this buffet with optimism. Unfortunately I was severely disappointed with the quality and options this buffet offered. I was forced to pay upfront on the front service desk which is bold for a non Vegas premium buffet. I then proceeded to select the most cold, old, low quality and disgusting food from appetizers, sushi, main dishes, and desserts. I worried about food poisoning throughout whole experience. I wish the owners would invest more in food and health expectations. read more

Great value for money plenty of choices and ample parking spaces Would be an inexpensive place to entertain guests. Wide array of food choices. read more

The value of the food was outstanding. Key items that I enjoyed were dim sung and the squid salad. They had a lot of seafood, which all was pleasantly good. The service was timely and very professional. For a Chinese buffet it was very clean and well organized. The only item that I feel was not up to par was the ice cream. read more

It was my first time there whit a group of 6 the food was really good and fresh they had a very wide selection to choose from service was also good and the price is decent 156 for six persons dinner lots of seafood bbl ribs and anything you can think of in between read more

Food was okay about a 6/10, they could have a better salad bar with waaaay more toppings but that's just me. I love the fact that they have various meat options when you get your food cooked by the chef ‍ the buffet itself was huge but personally, most of the food was way too over seasoned Service was a 4/10, the waitresses that would come get our plates had an attitude or something read more

all the food was gross even though it looked so so delicious. they scam you like this because they charge you by weight for what you don't eat so if you don't like it you either have to suffer eating that nasty ahh food or waste your money on said nasty ahh food. they don't even include fountain drinks in the buffet price which is crazy to me. i was so disappointed cause i was starving. they watch you so closely while you eat it made me so uncomfortable there was a worker standing next to my table watching us eat. will not be going again read more

A nice and clean looking restaurant. They did a good job refreshing it. The food area is clean, well lit, and inviting! Sadly the food was just ok to me, not very warm as if it had been sitting for awhile which it probably had, since the restaurant is new and not very crowded. Hopefully if it catches on... they will serve fresh, hot food Not much to offer if you're vegetarian or vegan just a few items Good ambience almost upscale for a chinese buffet place. Service (taking away your empty plates) was ok. The waitresses should find something else to do rather than staring at the diners, it's uncomfortable A mild endorsement from me read more

the food was so gross! nothing tasted like it looked. everything looked amazing but it just wasn't. also there was a sign that says they charge you for uneaten food which idk if it's true. the workers also watch you like crazy it was very intimidating and not friendly feeling. also the restaurant smelled like fish and poop.. the whole place is a scam because everything looks good so you get a lot and then it's gross so you don't eat it and then they charge you extra. i know your tricks luck buffet. you're not slick. read more
