    Raw meat in Quart of Wonton Soup
    Emily K.

    I would have given it a three but it's going to have to be a two for me....the hot food was super mediocre and so was the sushi. They're lucky that their sashimi is fantastic because besides that it was super mid. The employees were attentive and were quick which was appreciated and the ambiance was clean. The reason why I'm giving two stars is because not only did I expect more the meat in the wonton soup was raw, it totally ruined my appetite. Besides that it you're looking for a cheap buffet it isn't terrible!

    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. The restaurant was clean and the service was good. The restroom was well stocked and clean as well. Miyako is a great AYCE restaurant and I wouldn't shy away from coming back if I'm in the area again.

    I was craving Japanese buffet and I am so glad that I choose this place. I had the lunch special which is $20 per person all you can eat. The food was delicious here. Towards the left they had a hibachi area but you are not allowed to add the rice with it. Luis was the associate that served my mom and I and he was very nice. There is a lot of options in what to eat here and the dessert options were delicious as well. As for drinks my mom and I had a glass of water. Tina was the server and she was very nice. I didn't like one thing she did was to give us the check before we finished eating. I do want to go back to delicious and amazing experience. The food is soo amazing.

    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 ! Loved the decor and the signs reminding people that all you can eat, does not mean waste!!! Try it. If you like it- go back for more. Don't heap up on something and waste! Seems like common sense........

    Very nice place , the sushi bar looked amazing. I don't eat sushi but I do eat all the other stuff. Our server was quite prompt at getting our dishes cleared. The decor and set up of this restaurant is quite interesting. 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.

    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. The ambiance was nice.

    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 loved. The restaurant itself was very clean and very well kept! No weird fish smells! 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

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

    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.

The owners Paulo, Fernando and Stephanie, are ALWAYS on the floor guaranteeing the perfect flow, and the happiness of the customers. To those people that are complaining about the salad bar, that has 30 different options or more, keep in mind that if you want salad the restaurant for you is called Just Salad and its much cheaper too. This place is all about the darn meat and the service. The churrasco masters come to your table NON-STOP. Have you ever been to those chains like Fogo ou Texas, where they come by your table once every 15 mins. WELL THAT IS NOT HOW THEY RUN THIS SHOW, you can barely finish eating the piece you got and there is 2 churrasco masters coming your way, its non stop rodízio. Lastly and the most important the quality of the meat. All other restaurants serve shitty cuts for lunch and prime cuts at night! THIS PLACE DOESNT EVEN CARRY SHITTY CUTS! They serve the prime cut all day, everyday! That should be the business you are aiming to spend your hard earned dollar at. Don't be fooled by the chains or other smaller brazilian steakhouses, here in south florida, no one provide the quality and the service that Pampa Gaucho does.

I made a reservation, and I'm guessing on weekend nights, this is the way to go. From the outside, Pampa Gaucho Churrascaria doesn't look like much, but inside it is quite lovely. Tables have white linens and candles. There is a large, inviting salad bar in the middle of the room with many choices of greens, toppings as well as cheeses, shrimp, eggplant, crab salad and more. There are also some hot bar items: black beans, rice, polenta, large grilled shrimp, mashed potatoes, and plantains. There's an option to just have the salad bar. I opted for this. They included salmon and grilled pineapple for me. There was plenty of food and it was all well made. So if you're a vegetarian or pesco-veg, you'll still be well taken care of while your carnivorous table-mates go to town. And that they did. There was filet mignon, flank steaks, sausage, short ribs, chicken, Parmesan encrusted pork, and probably way more. The dining room bursts with activity as servers visit the tables with this wide assortment of mostly rotisserie meats. Desserts are not included, and there are many options on the menu. While I tried to convince the others for the flan, we went with the tres leches. It was fabulous! So try and save a little space for dessert if you can. If you're a meat lover or looking for a fun celebratory meal, this place is for you! The servers were very nice and helpful. We very much enjoyed our evening here.

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.

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.

If you're driving a larger truck, be aware that parking is available but pretty tight. Once inside, we were warmly greeted by the host, who was incredibly friendly and escorted us to our table. Our waitress was just as wonderful--attentive, personable, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. There was music playing everyone there was enjoying themselves. Since it was Tuesday, we both ordered the all-you-can-eat fried catfish special for $21.99. They start you off with hush puppies and coleslaw, and when your meal arrives, you get your choice of a side. We both chose the fries. The portions were generous, with plenty of crispy fried catfish on the plate. The fish itself had great flavor, was perfectly crispy, and wasn't over-breaded. The hush puppies were delicious, and the French fries were cooked just right. My husband, who considers himself a bit of a coleslaw connoisseur, really enjoyed the coleslaw. I wasn't as impressed with it, but that's just my personal preference. My biggest disappointment was the tartar sauce. For a restaurant that's been around as long as Catfish Dewey's, I expected a homemade tartar sauce. Instead, it came in a pre-packaged container and tasted overwhelmingly of onion. Unfortunately, it just wasn't for me. If I were rating everything individually, I'd give the catfish a 7/10, the hush puppies an 8/10, the fries an 8/10, the coleslaw a 5/10, and the tartar sauce a 0/10. Overall, we enjoyed our visit, especially the friendly service and the crispy catfish. While it wasn't the best fried catfish we've had, it was still a good meal. As I always say, don't let my opinion make your decision. Everyone's taste is different, so go try it for yourself and form your own opinion. You might love it!
