    AYCE Crab legs steamed perfectly:)
    Eva B.

    Warm welcome smile by staffs. Food was all good. Wendy our waitress was so attentive making sure our glasses was fill with H2O. With the help of her colleague Walter clearing out our empty plates. Great Teamwork!) Always clean, sanitize,organized by Staffs. Thanx for a great dining experience. Highly Recommend!)

    Assorted sushi and cold items.

    There is something here for everyone. We came here for lunch which was a great AYCE deal for $19.99 per person. There was also an additional 15% discount currently on Tuesdays and Fridays. Huge variety of food at the buffet including seafood. I liked that there were items here that are not usually found at a typical Asian buffet like braised chicken feet and pork hocks. There were even salmon collars available. There was a soup available that had real lobster claw meat. I especially enjoyed the lotus leaf wrapped rice dumplings and baked crab on little scallop shells. Surprisingly, their tempura style French fries were really excellent, fresh, hot and crispy! (This was the first time I have tried fries off of a buffet line.) Good tasty food no matter what is chosen. I will definitely need to return to try their highly recommended Mongolian grill. Service was efficient and friendly. Used plates were removed quickly, keeping the table tidy. This place will definitely go on my dining rotation. Parking is plentiful.

    Wide variety of food, but nothing really stood out enough for me to want to come back to Luxe Buffet.

    I remember coming to Luxe Buffet years ago and actually having a pretty good experience, so I decided to revisit and finally bring my wife with me. Surprisingly, for a Friday night, the place was dead. Back then, I remember waiting 40 minutes to an hour just to get in. This time? We got seated immediately, and honestly... that already lowered my expectations. The selection was still pretty big with a lot of variety, so I started off with the seafood. It was decent. Nothing amazing, but good enough to satisfy the craving without worrying about food poisoning. The crab legs were ridiculously salty though. The biggest disappointment was the hot food section. I honestly don't understand how fried rice and chow mein can taste that bland. Zero flavor. The orange chicken and beef broccoli were okay, but definitely nothing memorable. They also had steak, though I can't remember which cut it was, but it was dry and overcooked. They also had a seafood boil section, but the shrimp were overcooked and the crawfish definitely didn't taste the freshest. It had that slightly off taste where you start questioning if you should keep eating it. Ironically, the best thing I had all night was the Mongolian BBQ. That was actually really good and probably the only thing I genuinely enjoyed. But that's also the disappointing part. If my favorite thing at a buffet is the Mongolian BBQ station, I could've just gone to a regular Mongolian BBQ spot, paid less, and probably enjoyed the meal more. The service also felt pretty off throughout the night. Most of the servers, the workers behind the buffet line, and even the bussers didn't seem friendly at all. Everything just felt slow and low energy, like nobody really wanted to be there. Not the worst buffet experience, but definitely nowhere near as good as I remembered it years ago.

    Went on a Sunday and I would say only some things are worth it from here. The quality unfortunately did go down over the years. * I recommend the Mongolia BBQ! The taste is actually so delicious. You can pick your own ingredients & they cook it for you! * Surprisingly, the fries were tasty as well! * Some salmon sashimi pieces & the crab legs were yummy! The salmon sashimi was good, but I did notice some pieces were not fresh, and some even looked inedible because there was a green/black residue on it. The other pieces of sashimi were lacking and it didn't taste fresh. In addition, the sushi rolls were okay and even though the new rolls would come out, it seemed dry and not appetizing. I used to come here a lot before 2020, and the quality drastically dropped. Service: Pretty okay, but it was never bad, they just took a while to get the plates off the table Ambiance: Old fashioned, in need of a remodel to make it feel lively again.

    Luxe Buffet - Ontario, CA If you love seafood, THIS is the spot for you! Heavy on the seafood in the best way--lobster, crab legs, sushi, shrimp on shrimp on shrimp ‍ There was so much to choose from that I honestly couldn't try everything, but what I did have was sooo good. I really enjoyed the sushi, coconut shrimp, fried shrimp, chow mein, fresh fruit, and dessert Everything tasted fresh (nothing sitting around or old), and the variety was impressive. They even had Mongolian food made fresh to order, which was a nice surprise Plus... a chocolate fountain because why not? Highly recommend if you're a seafood lover and can EAT eat Come hungry!

    Sometimes, during a long day of day activity and you forgot to grab breakfast and lunch, and dinner is around the corner, hunger starts kicking in high gear; everything and ANYthing sounds great! After looking around for a Chinese gourmet restaurant, we just happened to be in the Ontario mall area and found that this establishment, "The Luxe Buffet" was opened and they just had their Grand Opening. On top of that, a quick google and IG search revealed the all you can eat Lobster during dinner time. We were hooked and wanted to try this place out!! While it was not too far from the freeways and Ontario Mall, it was tucked into the corner of the Main Street and so it a little tricky following the GPS to get there. Once there, a big parking lot is available for you to park anywhere! Walked in and was greeted immediately by the warm friendly staff and servers. The dinning hall was packed with people and we didn't have to wait at all when we arrived for the walk in. The time was about 4:30pm. Entrance was pretty well taken care of and clean. Reception and interior decor reminded me of crystal palaces and shining bright objects. In the main facility, there are rows of cushion table/seats setup and there are rows of regular open chair and table setups.i didn't get a good count but there has to be roughly 24 booths seating up to 4 comfortably and roughly 40-50 regular square/rectangular tables seating up to 4-6 people. With so many selections to choose from, the choices that you can make for a meal is endless. You have your typical assortment of Stir Fries, open sushi rolls, seafood area, soups from various kinds including the crabmeat soup, a delicacy only served during weddings and special occasions, a Mongolian grill area, dessert based on macaroons and every kids favorite, ice cream cart and machine. This place gave me nostalgic through memory lanes back in the early 90's. The food is great. It is a bit pricey for dinner, but worth it!! Come hungry and you will be left satisfy and fulfilled.

    Alright. We were hungry pretty much our 1st meal of the day at 7pm. Okay where to start I think we got there right before the dinner rush. Food seems to be left over. Some food cold and over cooked. When we got our 1st plate boyfriend got the brisket super dry and over cooked. I got a duck and dome other things 1st round left over.. 2nd round more people starting to show/ there were people already there enjoy their meal. Then this was the rush it seems. More food and freshly cooked Brisket warm still a bit dry, duck fresh. I had muscle and i wasn't expecting it to be cold but it was and i think that how they prepare it I'm use to it being warm with the mayo and cheese topping. Not bad but prefer it hot. Everything was mid. Typical buffet i would say. Just looks fancy due to decor and name and since they serve a-lot of seafood. Nice experience i guess

    Crab legs :)
    Megan P.

    Revisited after years to see if anything's changed, quality is average for about $35 pp. Most food was older and just lukewarm from sitting under the heat lamps for awhile. Came on a Monday night & they had lobster claws apart of their seafood. I mainly get sashimi, baked oysters & crab legs when coming here. Service was super nice though, our waitress constantly refilled our drinks & took away empty plates quickly.

    Good buffet with a decent price and lots of different food options to choose from. They have a nice variety, and there is something for everyone. Overall, a good place to enjoy a meal with family or friends.

    Every time we visit Ontario Mall we like coming here in LUXE BUFFET. This buffet is very near Ontario Mills Mall you can even walk from the Mall to this buffet. The reason we like stopping here is for their Lobsters, which are what we mostly eat here. Their lobsters are meaty and tasty. Their Lobsters Buffet is on the weekends only . For their other food we also like their Mongolian BBQ, and most of the tray gets filled fast. It's just that the service is kinda slow in picking up the used plate from our table. Parking spaces are plenty around.

    Alfonso D.

    Food was OK. The service was fast and it wasn't a busy night. I went on a Monday night, but I saw that some of the sushi was old and has been sitting there for a while and some of the food that was being served looked kind of old as well if you're into buffets then maybe come here if not, then don't come

    Tried The Luxe Buffet on Sunday and it was a total letdown. Stale ingredients, dry and chewy beef, and subpar lobster. The hot food had zero highlights. Totally not worth the $50 price tag per head.

We ordered the grilled artichoke to start, which was delicious. It comes with a Dijon dipping sauce that I loved. I ordered the macadamia nut crusted halibut that's on their current seasonal menu. It comes with an orange ginger sauce. The fish was firm and flaky, the mac nut crust gave it some nice crunch, and the sauce was flavorful. The fish comes with two sides, but I opted for a double order of the grilled zucchini. My husband ordered the sea bass that's also coated with a crust and comes with a lemon butter sauce. We tried each other's fish and we agreed they're both tasty, but mine was a bit better! I liked the lemon butter sauce on his fish a lot. Despite being busy, service was great!

The poor experience began at the host stand. I had a reservation for 1:15 PM but arrived early and was sat at 12:56 PM. Despite my active reservation, when the host led me to the table, she asked if the reservation was under "M." When I got to the table and asked who "M" was, she dismissively replied that they "just put down an alphabet." I told her my name was Will, but she didn't care to acknowledge it or correct her mistake. This cold shoulder continued throughout the meal. When asked about drinks, I said "water for now," and every time I said "thank you" to our server, I was met with complete silence and zero acknowledgment. Once my guest--who is white--joined me at the table, the dynamic shifted entirely. He received 95% of the server's warmth, eye contact, and attention. The only time the server actively engaged with me was to take my physical food order. Even the food had issues--our first crab cake was served overcooked. Because my guest was the one who pointed it out, the manager came over and addressed him to replace it. While the manager's interaction was a bit better, the server's dismissive attitude toward me never improved for the rest of the meal. To top it off, I was the one who paid the bill. When the server returned my credit card, instead of handing it back to me, she chose to place the presenter book directly in the middle of the table. As a business owner, I understand how critical customer service is. The selective attentiveness and dismissive attitude I experienced today felt incredibly biased and completely ruined our lunch. I will not be returning to this location.

We were greeted (dryly), seated, and left to figure out the confusing ordering sheet. Thankfully we have experience with HotPot and (sort of) figured it out and even after we expressed concern about how we were suppose to order/write down our meat selections per round (which they claim is unlimited but they only have 3 columns on the sheet) our questions remained unanswered. Trying to flag a waiter down to order more meat was a pain as hardly any were available and we were missing appetizers on our "second" but with the way the service was we figured there wasn't any point in bringing it up not to mention the lack of (flat) soda refills. I doubt we will be returning.
