Came in for lunch around 12PM on a weekday and had no probably getting a table. The price for lunch is $13.99 which is pretty good and they have pretty much everything I was looking for: Black Pepper Chicken - One of my favorites Pepper Steak - Which is loaded with steak General Tso's Chicken - best I have had at a buffet Broccoli Chicken Teriyaki Chicken Chicken on a Stick Dumplings BBQ Pork Crab Rangoons - GOONING Eggrolls Spring Rolls Just naming a few of make favorites that I always have to try and at Mikata they are all pretty good and some the best I have had at a Chinese Buffet and don't worry they are refilling all the food very quickly. They also have a Hibachi Station that I had to check out. I went with beef and shrimp for my protein with Lo Mein and veggies. They also have plenty of sauces to add as well. The Hibachi was also very good. The Shrimp were much bigger then what I am used to for buffet Hibachi and the beef was nice and tender. They also have plenty of sushi but I didn't end up getting into that. Got too full too fast. I will for sure be coming back to Mikata Buffet but next time I might go on a weekend causing after going back to work I was exhausted. For sure needed a nap after.

My first and last time at Fushimi,

my wife and I had our grandkids for a few days and live out of town, but they live nearby, so once…read morewe dropped them off, we were exhausted and were looking for somewhere nice/buffet style to eat. We decided upon this place based on reviews, including from all our oldest grandchild, who said that he had been taken here and everyone enjoyed it. we knew it had previously been a Japanese/Asian grill for many years, but now it is a Korean style barbecue and hot pot.m, so we stopped in. first be aware that this is not a cheap meal, it was $37 per adult. that said, you get access to a variety of proteins and options. I will also say that my experience was quite a bit different than that of my wife. to start, you get one type of flavored broth for your hot pot in which to cook proteins or vegetables. The table also comes with a built-in grill if you choose to Cook that way. My wife selected the mushroom broth base and I chose the pork broth base. I must say, my wife added her own spices/sauces and enjoyed her broth so much that she shared with me and it greatly enhanced my experience. We enjoyed it so much so that we took the remainder home - there was a by weight up charge for taking this or anything else home. initially I felt that was a little expensive ($5) for taking home What amounted to 2 cups of broth, but we made Ramen out of the next day and it was the best Ramen I've had in a long time, so kudos to my wife for having seasoned it so well. my pork broth was not very flavorful, but I was being lazy and did not add any sauces to it, so I was disappointed, but frankly that is probably on me. In the middle of the restaurant is a very clean and well stocked protein buffet that has all types of seafood, pork, chicken, and beef offerings. I selected many of these, and went directly to the grill instead of cooking some of them in the hot pot. i ended up over cooking several of them before adding them into my hot pot, and they weren't good, but once again my disappointment is in part due to my impatience or inattentiveness. my wife enjoyed her selections very much because she didn't overcook her proteins. my favorite thing was the beef Bulgogi and Korean short ribs, which I grilled (or my wife did) and these were delicious, marinated in an excellent sauce and I frankly could've and should've probably just eaten several plates of this. they had a sushi/dessert bar with typical fare; my wife did not partake in any of this. I tried several of the sushi rolls and they were OK -- frankly this is probably not what you would gravitate to if you're going to a hot pot/Korean barbecue restaurant. their desert offerings were fine: I enjoyed the tiramisu and the Asian style donuts, which were very doughy, but I love them. My wife thought they were just meh. they were alcoholic options, but we were already going to be at $90 with tip and take home broth so we just had waters. I apologize for forgetting the servers name, but his service was excellent, due to attentiveness, explanation of the options, and making sure our drinks were consistently refilled. The ambience was nice, modern, clean. so my take away is that this would be closer to a 3.5 star review versus a four, as this was expensive and everything that I tried other than the grilled Bulgogi and what my wife shared that she had added to her broth) was just OK. However, my wife enjoyed the meal so much, that alone is worth it. Also, I should attribute some of the "disappointment" to my own laziness or overcooking of the proteins on the grill. I would go back for another special occasion, but at the price point, it would not be a weekly choice.

This dude pissed me off enough to leave a review. Take it how you want it. IF I COULD LEAVE 0 stars I would fire that guy immediately.

I've been to Lanjie several times and each time it hits the spot. We went when it first opened so…read moreall the stations were fully stocked and ready. I usually stick to only hot pot because grilling and hot pot at the same time is too much for me. My go-to broths are herbal or pork bone. The broth is always flavorful and tasty and comforting. With the sauce station, I can customize my dipping sauce as well as adding it to the soup to bring it to the spice level I like. My friend got spicy sichuan, which she can handle the spicy. It is also good but I would go with Korean seafood if I wanted medium spicy. I like the many food options they offer which even includes shrimp with or without the head and snow crab legs. The revolving veggies and noodles are so convenient and fun. I like to get in my leafy greens - they have bok choy, lettuce, napa cabbage, snow pea tips, and water cress (when they have it). It is also nice that they offer different flavors of ice cream in a cup or waffle cone for dessert. Perfect ending to a meal. The service was good and they recently upgraded to electric payment at the table which makes it even more efficient when you're ready to go. Until next time!

Some of our favorites are the beef ribs (not always available), sweet plantains, green vegetables, picanha, sirloin, chicken lasagna, and chicken breast with bacon.
