The food was good for its price. The only thing I was concerned was the carpet. It is too dirty and smelly.

Sakura usually offers alright food for your money. Your drinks are usually kept full, which is a major plus in our family. But in my personal opinion a Chinese buffet should not serve non-Chinese style foods. For example at Sakura they also serve pizza, chicken nuggets, french fries, and onion and mystery meat quesadillas. The atmosphere is equal to a female high school student's used car; blaring Keisha and talking AS LOUD AS THEY CAN. Let's just say there's a plethora of ethnic diversity among clientele but the vast majority of customers are native spanish speakers so, naturally, their children end up doing whatever the hell they want wherever they want and mom and dad are completely oblivious to the existence of discipline or to the effects that their loud and obnoxious children have on other patrons' dining experience. Everyday there are 3 or 4 tour buses that show up packed to the gills with Chinese tourists. They fill up the restaurant pretty quickly around lunch time. I also feel like I'm going to be robbed when I leave the restaurant. I once saw a Latino man selling bootleg DVDs out front. read more

This was an okay place, the food wasn't bad. The price is 995 for dinner and 695 for lunch. Lunch ends at 345. Kids 3 to 10 are 95cents per year of there age plus tax. I will probably not go back. read more

They were not helping us they were pushing us to the side and helping other costumers. We asked for drinks and they did not give it to us. We had to go up to a worker and ask them for our drinks. The food was ok but I felt like some were not cooked. read more

Food was very old.. service was okay. They did have a great selection but very bland.. It has gone way down over the years.

Look, it's a massive Asian buffet, so you can't expect gourmet foodprepared to your exact specification. But, for what it is, this place really isn't too bad. I had their sushi (wasn't brave enough to tempt fate with their sashimi), fried butterfly shrimp, stir fried zucchini, onion rings, and some butter cookies filled with jam. the fact that it was so crowded men the food turned over quickly, and new batches of food over continuously being cooked and brought out. There wasn't a lot of service; this is a buffet, after all, but the server that was working in the area where I sat was always hopping around clearing dishes and filling glasses with water and soda. The hostess even allowed me to charge my mobile phone at her counter. read more

3.5 stars. It used to be 4.5 I've eaten here at least a dozen times. Each experience has been different, and that's not necessarily a good or bad thing; the food just changes up often. The Mongolian BBQ is good for sure. It's easy to feed kids here because of the wide variety of items, and some of the main dishes are great. Try the octopus stir fry; yum! read more

This place is noisy and dirty. When you first walk in there is a small junky fish pond that gives of a terrible fishy odor then when you see the cashier station and hosts stand you can see how disorganized and messy this place is. We were seated right away, even though it was crowded, because this is a huge place with lots of tables. When I went to go to the restroom to wash my hands before we sat down I had to wait for a few minutes and I had a chance to notice a few things around me. First, the staff use the back of the dinning room for their lunch area as well as a food prep area. While I was there I saw two men sitting at a table preparing, what looked like, crab Rangoon (wontons with cream cheese). The problem was that they were using their bare hands, no gloves, and at one point one of them was brought some paper money by another worker. He handled the paper money, put it in his pocket, then proceeded to prepared the food again with bare hands. No washing, no sanitizer, nothing. Also, don't ever go around 3pm because apparently all the cooks go on lunch then and the food is left to disappear without being replenished. When we got to the Buffett almost everything was pretty empty and when I asked about a couple of things they said it would be about 10-15 mins because they were all eating. So as we were leaving we noticed everything was very full, to late for us. The food wasn't that tasty, not bad just nothing special. We will not be back. read more

This place should get no stars the employees are rude..food is dryed out....BAD SERVICE

I am familiar with Sakura in Lancaster, a buffet with a large selection of dishes and a Mongolian BBQ with lots of ingredients. This location was half the size of Lancaster's and the Mongolian BBQ was lacking and unappetizing. Still, a buffet is a buffet is a buffet. Pay a few dollars and you have all you can eat chinese food. Yea! read more

Save you money and go elsewhere. This place has fallen apart over the years. The first time I took my family here they didn't even give us our drinks. So we took off. The second time we went there the place smelled like a dead animal. the food wasn't all that great for the price. read more

This place has gone downhill. They have expanded and there is more room now but it's a nightmare trying to get food when the tour buses show up read more

It's closed still ! Essential to the Antelope Valley! Baby come back... hopefully soon it will open back up. Sitting down with family eating food that comfort you well forever be wonderful. read more

For a buffet its great. Lots of variety and tastes pretty good. If your going to a buffet looking for amazing food then GTFO. I hate hate hate buffets but my wife made me go and I am surprised that I am planning on going back. Food was good, was able to try lots of different types of food I normally wouldn't. Staff is friendly, is a pretty busy place but not to bad. Kid will run around but that's a buffet for you. You do feel the staff is staring at you all the time but its only because they are making sure they get dirty plates off your table fast and keep your cups full. It's needs a update in decor but I didn't mind. Place is overall very clean, except bathroom. It was my first time there and to help you out here are tips to make it easy: 1. They seat you 2. They keep your ticket 3. They get your drinks for you and fill them up aswell 4. Eat all you want! They food is all labeled, except sushi. 5. When your done ask the buser for the check 6. Expect to tip! First buffet I've been to that you tip busers 7. When done and have check, pay the cashier at entrance. Overall it's a place I recommend if you have a huge appetite and have members in your party that can't decide what they want, something for everyone. read more

I really did like this buffet when I visited my family in Bakersfield. The only negative side was that the area is small for huge seating numbers. The service was great and kept refilling our drinks. read more

Great food..great selection. Everything was very fresh. Great price. One of my new favorites! Staff was polite and courteous. Would definitely recommend trying it out if this is your style of food! read more

I wanted to go here for their Mongolian BBQ as it is the only place in town to go to. I understand that I went on a weekend and weekends get packed, but the chef in charge of the Mongolian Grill was absolutely rude and did not want to work. He was too lazy to restock the meat and was yelling at customers when they tried to pour their own sauce. I gave this place two stars because their food was okay, but certainly not worth paying $10 a person. read more

The food was crap , dry and stale . So dirty we complained about it and they overheard us and they stayed stalking us all the way until we paid . We tried to use there restrooms to change my 3 month old baby and they didn't have a damn changing pad . We had to change him in the cold in the cold . NEVER AGAIN . Also they tried recharging my sister in law to go use there restroom within 2 minutes of just leaving! read more

If I can get 0 stars i would. I was disrespected by the staff my family and I came to have a nice lunch yet was being followed by the staff and the food was not even cooked properly . We decided to leave because the food was just awful. On our way to pay we were chased by an associate name hno being threatened to pay when we were in line to pay . read more

The absolute worst. We came in around 7:40 pm on a Saturday. Seven people deep and $100 later. My mom went up to get my disabled brother and my son some food. They saw my mom had three plates and followed my mom the ENTIRE time watching her every move. When my mom grabbed four beef ribs to feed HERSELF, MY PARTIAL RETARDED BROTHER AND MY SON . That is three mouths to feed. The short Asian lady with the hooded eyes was watching my mom like she was going to steal her green card and WAS SHAKING HER HEAD like when the dick falls out of your mouth and you trying to catch it. This all happened as my mom grabbed food to feed her family. That's ridiculous .. read more

Not thaaaat bad. Actually, it's pretty good if you like food in general. It is your average Chinese Buffet Restaurant and more! What more is there to say? Come hungry leave happy I guess ;) read more

I know alot of people will say that this place has some questionable services. For my part at least, I found the food to be top notch. The honey chicken and orange chicken were both fantastic. I also loved the sushi. It was very authentic. The desserts are pretty good, too. I would definitely return here. read more

Love the pictures on their website but is false advertising. It's just stuff that we can eat for a veg aquariums. So we just eat seafood but enjoy other things you know sushi, shrimp maybe crab legs, but they don't tell you what's in the rest of stuff. Like the noodles and rice so I couldn't feed it to my kids cuz I didn't know what was in it. Trying to talk to someone they don't understand you so we felt like we can feed it to our kids. read more

The place was cheap and clean. Fast friendly service The best part fresh stir fry. Otherwise to me the food was not good. But my sisters enjoyed it. I'm from Hawaii so to me it was a cheap Buffett but not good at all. read more

I gotta say This restaurant is outstanding! The employees welcome you right when we walk in! The food is Awesome! You guys have to try the Mongolian BBQ, its amazing. Also The waiters make sure we want more refills, and they ask us if everything is great, couldn't ask for more. I recommend everybody to try this restaurant. read more

Sakura Buffet - I love this shrimp hmmmm so yummy - Chinese Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Best place you can.eat employees are very friendly and seat you quick ... the orange chicken and the white rice are amazing just the like rest of there buffet ..prices are affordable for the whole family & friends. read more

My fiancé and I were pretty excited to try this buffet as they had plenty of seafood options. Everything was very bland and all the seafood was overcooked. The best thing we had was the mashed potatoes and the fortune cookies when we walked out. We left feeling sick and not in a good way. Honestly the whole restaurant would be a lot better if they put a little more effort in with food and service. Service wise we got in quick but never got refills or had anyone check in with us or give us our bill (we ended just walking up to the counter and checking out). One server cleaned a table next to us and left a huge mess of jello, rice, ice cream cones, noodles, and big chunks of fruit. He knowingly just walked away and continued doing other things, 10 mins later one of the other servers noticed it as she was passing and thankfully cleaned it up. As I mentioned earlier a little more effort and this place would be really great. read more

This place is disgusting. I went to the sushi bar/grill and the woman behind it spat a long thick drizzle of saliva down to the ground. It put me right off eating. I tried various non grill non sushi food and it was mediocre at best. I would never ever ever recommend this place. Even if not for the grossness the food was not good. There are cheaper better buffets in Bakersfield. read more

Larger dessert selection than most buffets. It is somewhat crowded and table space is cramped, but it is worth it for all the diverse choices. read more

So, I came here again and thankfully the refills weren't charged. The ice cream was delicious as so was the food. Only issue was that the lemon fish seemed too fresh and had a piece of paper stuck to it but it was just a small issue the rest of the food was delicious and it wasn't as busy because it was a weekday. This is my favorite place to go for about three years or more now. read more

It was a great place to eat at and I loved the koi pond they had. It was Great fast seating good service and the food was very good

Today I had a very bad experience at the restaurant I ordered 2 to go plates and when we got home we noticed their was a plastic glove in the plate I called the manager and told me he was sorry he did give me a refund but continued selling the chow main that I told him I had found it in!!! read more

I would give this review a 5 if only they had the capacity to fit everyone in. I guess that isn't a bad thing but with a hungry 2 year old the wait can seem longer then desirable. However, the food was great, plenty to choose from and a half way decent sushi bar. The waitress was very patient with having a loud child and even stopped by and shared (playful) stares with my son. Tips: 1- Drinks- If you have a child or children bring your own drinks they only have fruit punch, sprite and lemonade. 2- Chop Sticks- Not saying everyone likes chop sticks , but I do so when trying to find them in a Chinese restaurant I had to hunt them down instead of having them next to the sushi bar. In conclusion, with everything said my wife and I both agree a second visit is in our future. read more

friendly staff, fresh reasonably priced asian buffet. We will return whenever we are passing through Bakersfield.

The food here is okay. However, it discriminates tourist and charges tourists more. The sign said 8.99 for lunch buffet but it charged the tourists 12 each. read more

I came here for lunch out of curiosity, and was pleasantly surprised to find several tasty items and a very reasonable price. For under 8 bucks you get all you can eat lunch with fresh salad, fruit, multiple entrees (chicken, beef, pork, fish, etc. prepared in a variety of ways. The place is very clean, and the food fresh. There were a couple of items I didn't care for, but the majority of things I selected were quite tasty. I don't live in the area, but I'll definitely come back to this place next time I'm passing through. read more

If you care about your health and well being, do not come to this place. The food is not sanitary and the service sucks. They don't wash their vegetable throughly and the meat is not fresh. I almost broke my tooth due to a stone in their uncleaned shell fish. No apologies at all and no refund. Worst buffet I have ever experienced. Regular lunch price is 8.39+tax per person, but they sent me a bill of 47.99 for four people without telling me how the bill broke down. The front desk refused to adjust my bill after my complain. read more

Being from Los Angeles and on my way to Visalia, we stopped by at Bakersfield for lunch. Someone I knew recommended this place and it was decent. Not the best, but not the worst. Pros: lots of people working on food and cleanup, wide dining space, variety of cuisines. Cons: food is bland, it's awfully quiet so it's awkward to spark conversation with whoever you're with. Overall, I don't really recommend this place. It's right across the street from Chuck E Cheese, and you'll have better luck with the food there. And you can have fun while you're at it LOL read more

I want to start off by saying that the food is very good. The only compliant is the service; The employees are a bit rude and I did not appreciate it. read more

I supposed this was as good as any China buffet is going to get. My boyfriend and I have gone here a few times whenever we don't feel ordering food nor waiting.They had a wide variety of food in their food bars and most of the foods were fresh. The sushi was as disgusting as any Chinese buffet's sushi. I guess the thought of stuffing your face with as much food as it takes for you to throw up and then simply eat again for one low price draws so many people and their whole entire family here because every one of the few times that we've gone, it was so crowded. People had their kids running around like it was no body's business. The staff didn't even bother to ask the parents to control their damn kids. All in all, the food was ok, but the atmosphere was terrible. read more
