    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice place , the sushi bar looked amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I don't eat sushi but I do eat all the other stuff. Our server was quite prompt at getting our dishes cleared. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor and set up of this restaurant is quite interesting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pineapple chicken was amazing. We also enjoyed the french fries and chicken nuggets. Four of us ate for about 90 dollars. With a tip , we spent 110 dollars. For 4 seniors. Everything I ate I enjoyed. Green beans, panko fried vegetables, vegetable lomein, rice noodles, pineapple chicken, teriyaki chicken, garlic fried green beans and French fries.

    My Father-in-law took us here for lunch and it's a pretty solid AYCE restaurant for when you're feeling super hungry! It's tucked away in an outdoor shopping center but there's plenty of parking. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and sat in a cozy corner. There's tons of options from sushi, appetizers, desserts, and there's a Mongolian grill as well. For AYCE, the sushi was really good and I especially loved the roll with the kiwi on top. Everything was fresh and tasted great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean and the service was good. The restroom was well stocked and clean as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Miyako is a great AYCE restaurant and I wouldn't shy away from coming back if I'm in the area again.

    Excellent buffet place! Was surprised by how many people were in line. They give you a buzzer to let you know when they are ready to seat. It took about 30 minutes on a Saturday night. Inside: sushi lines the first section with sashimi, Nigiri, raw sushi, seaweed salad, etc. Flavor of the sushi was surprisingly good for a buffet. The other sections were hibachi and prepared foods, including beef and veg, pineapple chicken, which I assume is like sesame chicken and the classic crab Rangoon, eggrolls, wok noodles. I actually found the desserts to be my favorite. Their crème brûlée was on point as well as their Panna cotta. I shared a picture of the chocolate fountain because that is a fun touch. Overall, for the price point just a little bit above $30 a person I think it's a great deal and a fun occasional meal when you're looking for a variety!

    Arrived at 6:05 pm. There were people waiting outside. We checked in for 5 people. The hostess said 30-35 minutes. She was right on. We sat down at 6:40. We did review the Buffett while waiting. WOw. So many options!!! Our server Ling was very kind and efficient. We used the readily available gloves to handle the tongs! The sushi was being made and continuously turning. I'm usually not a fan of buffets but this place is awesome!!! They have something for everyone. Hibachi, traditional Chinese, sushi and. OH my. Save room for a few bites of dessert. Small perfect bites ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the decor and the signs reminding people that all you can eat, does not mean waste!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Try it. If you like it- go back for more. Don't heap up on something and waste! Seems like common sense........

    I have been coming to this plaza weekly now for something or other. Something that got my attention was the long lines this restaurant always has. I knew it was a place I wanted to check out. The restaurant is busy, always. The staff does a phenomenal job of keeping a good flow going. It is an all-you-can-eat type of place with a set price. I came for the sushi and the rolls. I loved the rolls here. They had great combinations and tasted great. I was happy with everything I tried. I didn't get to try the sushi because I stuffed myself with rolls. I liked how on top the staff was on arranging and replenishing the stuff. Everything looked great. The customer service was great. The waitress came around a few times. I always love it when I am checked on. I had a good experience. I am glad I stopped in.

    The food was fresh. The staff were friendly. One thing I wasn't fond of was we felt rushed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I really enjoyed this place. The food was outstanding even the pre-cooked food like the lobster and crab, the hibachi was fantastic, and the star of the show was the sushi Island. The service and ambience are what you can expect from and all you can eat buffet. Everyone was friendly and smiling, which we all lo[[HIGHLIGHT]]ved. The restaurant itself was very clean and very well kept! No weird fish sm[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]ells! We appreciated the fact that we always had fresh food, we saw restaurants staff removing food that had sat for too long. Some other buffets should take note. The snow crab legs were cold only. We really would've loved to have had nice hot steaming crab legs. But that only cost them one half star. Maybe a small butter hot pot at the table could meet in the middle... [edit] I forgot to mention the chocolate fountain at the dessert station! Super luxurious and sure to be a hit with the kids and the kid in you. ;)

    It was great to come back to Miyako after a few years of absence. The weekday lunch is now $18.99 pp and guests have 1.5 hours to enjoy the AYCE buffet. I found the flavors this time, bolder and better than last time. Maybe they have a new chef. The variety of dishes and sushi was very good and the service was attentive as well....our server picked up the plates minutes after we would set them aside. Overall a great option for fresh sushi, salads, Chinese food, Hibachi, desserts and much more...

    Heather N.

    so this is got to be one of the best freshest well put together all you can eat sushi/Chinese places I have ever gone to the selection is huge and since it's always busy, everything is so fresh the oysters are being shucked right in front of you so you know it's gonna be good. we went with a large party for a birthday it was 13 of us and they accommodated us. service was on point. i've been to all you can eat sushi places but this one is my favorite if you're ever in Pompano and you're looking for good seafood, sushi, Chinese even hibachi station and the best dessert definitely check this place out

    Albina S.

    Always fresh, delicious with ton of options for sushi, seafood, Chinese dishes, deserts for very good price.

    Maibel R.

    Everything was so fresh & clean! Service was great. So many options to choose from. Lots of different varieties you don't often see at other Japanese buffets. A new fav and one of the few buffets that the desserts are actually really good which is unheard of. Looking forward to going again!

    Crab legs for lunch?

    snow crab legs are generally served during dinner and weekend sessions rather than the standard weekday lunch buffet. While the restaurant is well-known for its extensive seafood selection, premium items like crab legs are typically reserved for the… 

    What is the difference between the lunch and dinner all you can eat? What Do you get on the dinner buffet that you do not get on the luncheon buffet?

    They offer a few more seafood options but not a huge difference

    Do they have crab legs during lunch?

    I've been there a couple times for lunch and have not seen crab legs.

    Do you still have lobsters on the buffet?

    Crab legs are for dinner in all buffets.

    What's the happy hour like?

    Do you have a full bar?

    No they don't have full bar

    Is anything different now because of the pandemic?

    I was just there a couple of weeks ago when I was in Florida. They have disposal gloves for everyone to wear but obviously it's not mandatory any longer. I saw people going up to the buffet without gloves on. You do not have to wear a mask any… 

    Are you guys still social distancing the tables?

    No, I was just there on 12/5/21. Everyone is seated next to one another at every table. There are several different rooms of tables. On the weekends this place gets so packed there's a waiting line outside.

    When are crab legs served?

    Every night.

    Is there a difference between dinner on weekday versus weekend, except for the price? Thanks

    Yes. There are offerings that they have on weekends that they don't have on weekday nights. A few I've noted from time to time are oysters, frog legs and better cuts of salmon sashimi

    Is there a discount for senior citizens?

    Discount for 60 years old or older senior

    How different is the food during lunch and dinner? Does lunch also have sushi, hibachi, etc. just like during dinner hours?

    Dinner buffet including more seafood and sushi, we also served crab legs.

    What is the price/person ? Lunch and dinner... thanks

    Lunch is ~13 on weekdays, 15 fri, sat sun...dinner ~20 on week days and 23 fri, sat sunday dinner has a few higher end items (sashimi oysters etc)

    Do you have blue stone crab?

    No such thing. There are blue crabs and stone crabs. I don't believe they had either on buffet.

    What's the difference of items offered for lunch? And dinner? Do they have jellyfish salad?

    Hi. Some sushi is different for dinner, and sometimes sashimi is unavailable for lunch, Oysters and clams are available for dinner. Thank you

    Hello! I would like to know if you guys have a mimosas on Sunday? Thanks

    Hi. No, we don't have a mimosas on Sunday. Thank you.

There was a dj outside setting some good vibes and inside was nice a calm.

I would say it rivals Joe's Stone Crab in Miami Beach. Everything was to perfection. My favorites were the fried calamari and the whole fried fish (didn't get a pic). A little lemon juice and nothing more was needed. Our server Mimi was delightful and had great menu knowledge.

I was searching Yelp for seafood, and this came up as highly rated. One of the people in our party of 5 adults and a toddler is not a huge fan of seafood, so having Italian options was great. He ordered the special eggplant parmigiana and said it was delicious. The sauce was very good and he cleaned his plate. . Everyone also enjoyed their salads with the ginger dressing. A few even added some balsamic and said the combo was delicious. The wahoo bites we had as an appetizer was crispy and flaky and lovely. Our 16 month old guest enjoyed them as well. I ordered the sesame crusted ahi tuna and Bahamian peas and rice side. The tuna was perfectly cooked and the Bahamian peas and rice were amazing!!! The spicy flavor and beautifully textured rice were the perfect side with the tuna! Others ordered the Linguine Alla Vongole - fresh clams in the shell with garlic scampi sauce and Crazy Bob's Shrimp and Calamari Fra Diavolo with angel hair pasta. There was a generous amount of clams, shrimp and calamari in the respective dishes enjoyed with the wonderful pastas. The generous amount of pasta was taken home. Our sever Agnes was a delight! Very kind and an absolute pleasure! While we were too full and content to have desserts those who live in town said they will need to come back and leave room for the key lime pie. The dining area was decorated with wonderful art and nautical treasures. A few tables exist for outdoor dining. Mostly for two or four diners. Highly recommend Chef Dee's restaurant!

The service was top notch. You can tell they care about their customers. I had the Tom Kha soup with shrimp as an appetizer.

One thing that disappointed me before ordering was that I was expecting a lunch menu because that's what I saw online, but there wasn't one available when I arrived.
