Last Friday I walked in with my family and we had to wait because there was no one working the door. We finally got seated after someone came from the back. We ordered right away cause we could see it was busy. My beer never showed up. I had to eventually go to the bar where my beer was sitting for about 10 mins. I ordered another beer for my wife, paid for both -- but then when I returned to the table, they brought All the food-- soups, appetizers, sushi, main course all at once. Waitress never apologized, she just kind of ignored us like, yeah we messed up but I'll continue to ignore you the rest of the evening until you flag me down to bring the check. Which is exactly what she did. I still paid and gave them 20% tip.

It even comes with egg rolls and a salad so it is VERY worth it! It's even less than the price of the normal dish! Service is great and it was not too crowded so the ambiance was nice. I highly recommend getting their lunch special when you are here!

Horrible experience. We used to be regulars too…read more We had hair in our food and owner refused to acknowledge our findings.

Great for the price as long as you temper your expectations…read more In this economy, Golden Panda is still doing $17.99 for lunch, $21.99 for dinner, and $23.99 for weekends all without time limit, so if you are going in expecting some gourmet buffet, you are most likely going to be disappointed. But if you go in with the expectation that you can try a ton of different food for the same price as a regular eat out, you might be pleasantly surprised like me. The hot food sections consist of Chinese buffet classics and a small selection of western foods like fried chickens and shrimp boils, etc. The quality of the Chinese dishes are honestly surprising good. Better than Panda Express, which isn't a high bar but still, and even has expensive dishes like fried crabs that is actually good. IMO even if you only eat from this section, you will have your money's worth and have a good time. The sushi/seafood bar is a slightly more complicated story. The rolls didn't look appetizing so I didn't try them. The chilled seafoods like cocktail shrimps and mussels didn't taste too fresh and I am a little worried after eating them. The sushi/sashimi, which are the main star of the entire buffet, are honestly pretty decent but with a caveat. They are obviously not sushi restaurants quality, but the fish are fresh enough and the sushi rice are decent enough that I when back for more. The only thing that concerned me is that the tongs used for sushi and sashimi are very dirty with food residue on them. They don't seem to be changing frequently if at all, and using something that has been touching raw fish and sitting out for a long time concerns me. If I get sick from the sushi it is probably not the sushi itself but the tongs. Lastly, the desert section is great like many comments have said, the fruits are fresh, cakes are decent, and the gelato ice creams are very high quality. Service is alright. They have remodeled so it is definitely cleaner than before and the bathroom is nice too. Overall a good place for the money, and would be a great place if the focus a bit more on the cleanliness of the food station

Tried this place for the first time today and it was really great!…read more First off service was great. The guy who served me, Ian, was very friendly and helpful in creating my bowl. Had a great attitude and also made a tasty bowl! Great service The food itself was really good. Flavors were on point and everything came together well. I do wish the fish was a bit colder bc for me it just feels more fresh then. But maybe that's bc the rice is warm? Maybe having like everything cold option would be cool One note is that the cucumber may have gone off, it was super bitter so I had to pick those out. But other than that everything was perfect! Will definitely be back!

I'm going to say that the service was really nice and the staff was really attentive. There wasn't many other people there, which is not great to see because they deserve more attention! They got nice modern comfortable decor and wide open spaces. We tried the tasting menu for each of us as well as an additional dish of steak. Champagne and sake were our choice of alcohol. The tasting itself was $88 and it serves 9 courses. I recommend having it if you aren't sure what to eat. All the dishes were presented nicely and tasted wonderful. We had an additional tasting after for round 2. Haha not because it didn't fill us up, but because we had to invite more people. The tasting is enough to make sure you're full. Plentiful parking in the lot attached. The location is a bit buried inside where the neighborhood is quiet, but it is definitely worth a try. They have sister restaurants called Omaniku in the 626 area as well. I recommend anyone to come try for anniversary, birthdays, date nights, celebrations, or get togethers! You'll impress them with the taste.

The standout was the final savory course: A5 wagyu dipped in a rich onsen egg yolk, which was easily the highlight of the meal. That said, the portions are quite small, and not every course felt equally memorable, so I'm not entirely sure the experience justified the price. Still, the service, presentation, and overall pacing made it an enjoyable dinner--especially for a group looking to celebrate a special occasion or try something different.
