    I love this place so much, their consistency for both takeout and dine in is amazing! My go to order is the chicken vindaloo extra spicy with mango lassi, and the garlic naan :) Service is great, and the ambiance is great

    Came into town after a long drive, door dashed this to our hotel, and this place really hit the spot! Delicious flavors--we ordered our usuals: tikka masala, garlic naan, and rice. Everything arrived hot, flavors were on point, portions were generous! This was the best naan I have had in a very long time. Our choices for Indian food haven't been great in the recent past. If we lived closer we'd eat here more often! Everything was packaged so well! Highly recommend!

    Always enjoy a good Indian meal. Ordered the (mild)vegetable korma-lots of good veggies with a cashew nut cream sauce. Very yum with plenty of leftovers. Vegetable briyani also had a hefty portion of veggies with a bit more kick(medium spice). Lots of leftovers. Garlic naan was great. I added salt to both dishes and naan and it really enhanced the flavors. Great meal. Good service. Plenty of seating inside and out. Very reasonably priced.

    First time going to Sattava. Was craving for Indian food and it did not disappoint. Curry's, Naan, and Rice were all very good. What surprised me was the beer. That was very light and refreshing. Server came outside multiple times to check on us and turned on the outside heater since it was getting chilly. I couldn't decide what to order so I pointed at the pictures on their displayed poster boards. I found that very helpful. Will definitely come back. Naan was so good we ordered more.

    Lubch out 2 adults 2 kids who live Indian food. We ordered Saag Paneer, mint chutney, Raita, chicken Rikki masala, tandoori chicken and naan bread with rice too. All was good and it was cooked fresh while we waited. No buffet here. Free parking in the lot. Food was good but we ran out of chicken tikka sauce. Next time we order two of these It's cooked fresh while you wait April 2025

    Great service so skip the grub hub and come in to relax and eat. Great indoor and outdoor dining.

    Seriously unbeatable Indian food

    Aroma is everywhere. In a plaza with lots of other attractions and parking, this spot stood out to me over any other Indian restaurant I've eaten at in SoCal. The food miraculously stays warm for thirty minutes while we eat. I love the service and the enthusiasm from everyone working there. The food here is the highlight, and for me, the flavor is everything.

    Garlic naan and roti

    Our first time to try Indian Restaurant and it was so good! We ordered garlic naan, garlic roti, butter chicken with basmati rice, mango lassi, and also we got butter lamb (same sauce with the butter chicken). Reina our server was really accommodating! We will definitely comeback. Also, I do recommend to ask them to serve everything together!

I came with my American friend who considered it gourmet food, so here we are. It is not my first visit here, and probably won't be my last either. For one thing, it is really convenient. I can't remember the last time I've to wait for a table here. It has a large private/party room that can accommodate 50+ people. Service at Asia Buffet is actually quite good. Used bowls and plates are cleaned promptly. Reasonably priced buffet is a good place for someone like my wife who doesn't eat much and enjoys variety. It's good for me in the sense that I can have what I like instead of finishing off leftovers of what she ordered. I usually start with a bowl of hot and sour soup, several types of sushi and seafood. I particularly like its seaweed salad, beef rib, button mushrooms, and vegetables. Fresh cut fruits, pastries and soft-serve ice cream are a pefect ending to a happy meal.

There is something for everyone :) They offer pizza, fries, chicken, sushi rolls and even Cajun boil! I really enjoyed all the various things that I sampled. The chow mein and fried rice was good. The egg roll wasn't my favorite but their sushi variety was great and I enjoyed it. Was thrilled to see they also have edamame. The seafood boil was probably my favorite- such a good flavor with a kick! Especially loved the corn on the cob. They also have an enormous amount of fresh fruit, cookies, pastries and even ice cream. The service is really good and they are consistently coming by to check on drinks and picking up plates. I really appreciated that. We came on a Sunday around 2pm and it was busy but we had zero wait time for a party of 7. I saw that you can reserve a table if you call ahead. Overall this is a great place if you're looking for all you can eat that tastes good and has a big selection.

I really like how this place isn't super crowded and has fair buffet pricing. Any AYCE meat/kbbq/shabu place is well in the $30-$40. They are not. Many of those places have dining time restrictions which always makes me nervous. Also, this place does not. You get meat. Veggies. Dim sum. Fried foods. Seafoods. Soups and salads. I mean, you really can't beat it. Our faves: Mongolian grill items ribeye. Kalbi and beef brisket like meat. Flavor is always delicious and meat is never overcooked. They clean the grill frequent enough so you don't get other flavors in your food. I've been eating a lot of stone crab and fried crab. Super generous and always refilling the trays. Sushi section well stocked. Soups and dim sum (shrimp gar) is a nice treat. Fruit station is amazing: Longan. Cherries. Papayas. Pineapple and superb watermelon. They have cold shrimp and snails at the ice bar across from the salad. There's always something for everyone to enjoy. The lady I always get as a server also cleans our dishes quickly and refills our drinks. My daughters are new fans of this place. Side note: A+ for purell foam hand soap dispensers in the restroom. I do however find only one dispenser works at a time for some Reason. Bathrooms are kept clean. People just need to learn how to fully flush after using.

    Buffet Lovers May Enjoy This One, But It Wasn't Quite Our Flavor…read more Hubby and I were on the hunt for a new spot to try and stumbled upon this Mediterranean buffet while browsing Yelp. First things first -- plenty of parking in the plaza, so no need to circle around hunting for a spot. We arrived around 3:30 PM, and since weekday lunch pricing is $21.99 per person from 11 AM-4 PM, we were pleasantly surprised when the hostess kindly allowed us to stay through the transition until 4:30 PM before dinner pricing kicked in. That was definitely appreciated! The ambience is what you'd expect from a buffet: open, spacious, and filled with plenty of tables for larger groups and families. Now onto the food... One thing I really enjoyed was the impressive selection of appetizers and dips. There were several varieties of hummus including spicy hummus, avocado hummus, baba ghanoush, along with a sauce station featuring tahini, tzatziki, and garlic sauce. If you're a dip-and-spread person, you'll probably be pretty happy here. They also had multiple rice options and a variety of proteins. Most of the selections consisted of different styles of chicken, along with fried fish and grilled fish. I believe the lamb shank is only offered during dinner service or on weekends, so unfortunately we missed out on that. As for the food itself, this is where the experience became a little mixed for us. While there were certainly a lot of choices, many of the dishes felt surprisingly similar, and overall the food lacked the bold Mediterranean flavors we were hoping for. Most items were fairly mild and a bit bland for our taste. Nothing tasted bad, but very little stood out enough to make us want to go back for seconds. For dessert, they offered baklava, pistachio rice pudding, and a few other sweet treats, which was a nice way to end the meal. Service, however, was excellent. Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and attentive, so I'd easily give the service 5/5 stars. Overall, I landed at 3 out of 5 stars. I appreciate the buffet concept, the variety, and the wonderful service, but for hubby and me, flavor is king. Unfortunately, the food just didn't have enough seasoning or wow factor to make us want to return for a second visit. If you're looking for a Mediterranean buffet with lots of options, it may be worth trying once and deciding for yourself. Happy eats!

The place smells decent, decently easy to find so no issues there. Cleanliness: the Buffett definitely needs some upgrading and cleaning. The rug smells and feels sticky to walk on, the counter area was clean but the ice cream section needed a deep clean, the cones were out of the packing and stale. The sprinkles were covered in ice cream and all over the place. The machine was covered in dried ice cream and caked on. I did not go into the restrooms, so I am not sure Food: cold. Everything except for the hibachi I got was cold. Shrimp, pork, chicken, all cold. They have an okay variety of deserts but other than the coffee and orange ones they were pretty bad. The flavor of the food was good, but the temperature of it was what really grossed me out and worry about food poisoning. It was during dinner at around 4pm so crab legs were included. My daughter devoured them and so did I. Best part of the buffet. Customer service: the waiters were very nice and kept our table clear. As soon as they notice we had our empty plates they would come around and grab them. I did notice and maybe it was just for that moment but we did get different waiters just grabbing our plates. Maybe they are doing a system where everyone waits on every table. Whatever they were doing it worked! We did mention at the end that our food was cold after we had paid and all because we were asked how we liked it. She did apologize and told us we should have brought up sooner so they could warm it up. That since it was slow the food gets cold. It was nice she apologized and all, but working in the food industry myself it is not any of the customers job to remind you to keep an eye on food temps. And you're supposed to keep food hot. Regardless they were nice. Would I come back? No. Would I recommend it? No. $60 for two adults $9 for my 4 yr old and $5 for my two yr old. So basically $80 for a family of 4 for cold food. Flavor was good though. So if you want to try it maybe you're lucky and get hot foods
