The food was absolutely disgusting and not even throughly cooked. The only things that were good was the fresh sushi rice fried rice and spring roles. EVERYTHING else was absolutely DISGUSTING. I got sick and now have diarrhea and my kids are sick now too. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PLACE read more

I had weight loss surgery in January. After a family funeral, the family wanted to go here to eat. I asked if it was possible to pay a reduced price as I would only be able to eat a few pieces of fruit. I even had a card from my surgeon's office explaining my surgery and the fact that I can't eat regular portions. I was told they do not accept the card and that I would have to pay full price even if I just ate the fruit. I refused to give them full price, so I got to sit and watch my family eat. I will not be returning and will strongly advise others to avoid, especially those who have had wls. read more

My husband and I love this place. They are always quick to seat you and quick to clean up empty dishes. Our drinks are never empty for more than a few seconds before someone comes to offer a refill. For the variety of foods they make, they do extremely well. I'm also impressed with how they've amped up their sanitization policies during the pandemic. Go give it a try! read more

Kids wanted Chinese buffet for dinner, so I yelped some options. We chose this place based on the reviews. There is a nice chinese food selection available including crab legs, sushi bar, and Mongolian grill. Most the food items were hot, others lukewarm. The food was ok, not that good- pretty typical of average buffets. Some of the foods had a strange cigarette ash taste. They have a big dessert selection, and service was good. read more

Good quality and standard selection. They need to add more variety. At least some fried shrimp or calamari. A few uncommon asian selections would go a long way to make it special. The kung pow chicken was bland. This is tied for 3rd place (out of 4) among Asian Buffets in the Mesa Gilbert area. read more

I stopped by at the height of Lunch Rush between Noon and 1 PM. I was mainly craving sushi. What I saw was one piece of salmon nigiri and three pieces of tuna. No sushi "chef" present to keep churning out the product. Or to notice that many items were depleted. None of the other seafood items were especially appealing. I will admit that the food was fresh and tasted good. But was waste of my time and money to leave grossly disappoined. And still hungry. read more

My family had eaten at woochi super buffet last night and now today we are paying the price! My oldest son has diarrhea and is vomiting along with stomach cramps. For the rest of us we just have diarrhea so far. read more

We almost didn't come here because of bad reviews but sure are glad we did. My husband and I choose very different items but neither of us had anything that wasn't great. Best hot and sour soup I have ever tasted. Will definitely go back. read more

Absolutely fantastic Very clean, wait staff friendly and efficient. What a selection of food! Fresh, tasty and very diverse. Sushi, fresh seafood, dim sum, coconut shrimp. Lots of fresh salads, dessert items. Will go again and recommend to friends read more

I would give a lower rating if there was one. This place should be turned into the Health Department for poor hygeine, dirty throughout including the bathrooms, maintenance not kept up to date (broken sign out front, doors on ladies' room stalls broken, benches in booths badly cracked with stuffing coming out, ice cream machine broken and stuffed in a dirty corner), etc. I had always been a big fan of this place approx 4-5 years ago. We happened to stop in today and should of just walked back out. The soup was about the only item that was edible. Since there were hardly any patrons there, food had been allowed to sit on the steaming trays for too long. It was no longer fresh and it was drying out. We only had a few things and then left but not before I must have consumed enough to get a raging case of what seemed to be food poisoning! Never never again. read more

My mother and I decided on a whim to go to woochi's. Upon arrival the seater greeted us and quickly sat us at a table. We ordered our drinks and headed straight to the buffet. Immediately I noticed that the sushi overpowered every other smell in the place. Granted fish is supposed to smell but this was a rotten smell as if the sushi had been out for hours. I then made my way to the chinese food and it was very clear that almost everything had been out for some time as the food seemed dry and anything with sauce had been mostly absorbed. That's fine (not really) I just picked out the best of what I liked. My mother on the other hand headed straight for that crab as that is her favorite. She filled her plate and grabbed a small bowl of butter. Instantly she noticed the butter was off and tastless. She brought it up to an employee and he went to grab a fresh pan but this one was no different. After taking it back to the table we noticed the butter seperating from another liquid. This was disgusting! After bringing it up to an employee she brushed us off and walked away. We continued eating and about 5 minutes later the same employee came up to us and told us the butter had just been put out fresh. We told her we knew and that it didn't matter. She and another employee shortly argued with us about this. It was clear they did not care and had no intention of doing anything about this mystery liqud they tried passing off as butter. We didn't eat much after that as our appetite had mostly diminished. I wouldn't bring my dog here much less myself again! read more

WooChi Super Buffet - THE FOOD IS OLD AND THE BUTTER IS MIXED WITH WATER!!! - Buffets Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Unfortunately we had a bad experience there being our first time going. The food was good and they have plenty of variety to choose from including sushi and many desserts. But I was disgusted when i bit into what was a MOLDY piece of coconut cake. It looked fine on top, I should've checked the bottom of the cake. It was covered in mold. We immediately let the waitress know but I had already bit into it. We definitely won't be going back there. read more

My family looooves this buffet!!! Huge selection of food (seafood, meat, salad, sushi, rice and noodles, deserts). My favorite thing is the chocolate fountain where you can place marshmallows or fruit Big place, nice workers and EXCELLENT prices! read more

A cut above your typical Chinese buffet. Popular with locals and the senior set. 20-minute wait for a table before 6:00 pm, but good humor in the line. Wait staff attentive and polite, even when they try to wisk away a plate from which you haven't yet finished. Good selection of old favorites plus some you don't see enough, like Mongolian beef. Sushi also popular, but ribeye steak from Hibachi grill was kinda tough. Clean place with fresh food brought out regularly. Soft-serve ice cream machine, but only dishes and no cones (*sigh*). Place has liquor license, and some of the wine offerings seemed pretty reasonable. Prices seemed good, but there is a posted two-hour maximum (sorry Homers). Like many restaurants in the Mesa/Phoenix area, closing times on the weekend (9:30 pm) seemed early to this East Coaster. Will go again! read more

See all

Yummy! You certainly get your money's worth, hubby and I had dinner on a Saturday evening. About 12.99 per person our total bill came out to 32.00 which was with tax included. Sushi, seafood, crab, shrimp, fried seafood, deserts, raw fish, soup, egg rolls! Huge selection to choose from. read more

I waited until I had eaten here twice before leaving this review just to make sure the first time wasn't a fluke. This buffet is one of the worst I have been to and I've easily been to 12+ over the past 20 years. Their heat lamps must not work well because the only food that tastes hot is the stuff that has just been brought out from the kitchen. I tried just about everything and most of the food was barely warm. The egg fu yung patties look tiny. The egg rolls are so heavily breaded I didn't even want to try one. The spring rolls aren't half bad though. The breaded shrimp I tried was so nasty that I spit it out into a napkin. Honestly, the Mongolian grill might be good in the back of the buffet but I was afraid to try it. Raw meat sitting out in a place like this makes me nervous. The two times I went here it was lunch time one day and dinner time the next visit. I only saw two people between both visits that ordered from the grill. The desert cakes are just store bought cakes, same as the cookies. If you go Lee Lee International market you can buy the desert items straight from the source. Their price is WAY too high for such a small buffet with very little selection! Not sure how they ended up with an average four star rating but maybe to the folks in East Mesa and Apache Junction this is good food? Not exactly a culinary hot spot out here! read more

I only have it a 1 star because there is no "0" star. We have been going to WooChi since they opened. We have NEVER had a bad meal there.... Until the other day. Spring rolls were all mush, bbq ribs were dry and burnt (adding sauce to try and hide the dry burnt rib), crab salad had an awful taste to it, the low mien was terrible....told the cashier and she just laughed and said they ordered a different type of frozen spring roll than they normally do.... Didn't say anything about any of the other items and proceeded to ring up our bill at full price..... Time to look for another restaurant to take its place!'nnn read more

4 stars only because the crab legs tasted like dish soap. Otherwise, everything was great, from the ambience to staff to the amazing choices of food. read more

woochi wobegone food is mediocre place is so dirty as shoes stick to the floor. place is old, dark and stinky. seriously folks, think twice. read more

Avoid this place. Food is not at the right temperature, sushi was old and dried out. One worker got annoyed when I asked for some sauce that was empty. Forget getting crab legs, people horde them, saw 4 people with plates full, leaving the bin empty. Dirty! Health dept needs to check on this place. read more

My dad and I went here for a quick bite and all the food was so bad. Some people around the place dead a** sounded like they were dying of tuberculosis and were putting there hands over EVERYTHINNGGG after I had already eaten a plate....This is the place to go eat after getting out of prison read more

UNBELIEVABLE. We used to go to #1 Eastern Buffet (now WooChi Buffet) up to three times a week. We recently went later on a week night, 1 1/4 hour before their posted closing hour. The food trays were empty, or almost empty... The "FOOD" (IF ANY) looked like congealed GLOP.... GLOP: GOOEY SLOP. The servers were racing around removing dirty dishes and wiping down tables... No attention to us at all after delivering glasses of water, Water glasses delivered with dirty, wet hands from cleaning tables. EEK! As our dishes piled up the servers raced around FRANTICALLY, Wiping with DIRTY cloths, Pushing Chairs Around, Sweeping Filthy Floors.... SWEEPING!!!!? SWEEPING the floors next to and even under our feet!!!! Meanwhile owners / managers sat amid the mess tallying up the day's receipts?!? THE FLOORS (NEW TILE FLOORING HORRIBLE MISTAKE) FILTHY, DISGUSTING!!! No mopping was seen, floors looked like a herd of cows gave birth on them!!! We couldn't believe this experience!!!! GROSS!!!! As we left I asked to speak to the owner or the manager or SOMEONE INVESTED Some dopey guy came to the register and I told him WE WILL NEVER BE BACK!!! I told him if he wanted to be closed at NINE ON THE DOT or whatever... THEY SHOULD CLOSE AT 8 or 8:30.... NOT HAVE EVERYONE SCURRYING AROUND WIPING, SWEEPING FILTH! DISGUSTING FLOORS NEEDING TO BE MOPPED NIGHTLY.... But NOT ON RESTAURANT CUSTOMER'S TIME!!!! They brought in an elegant wine thingy at the entry.... BUT WHO WANTS A GLASS OF WINE WITH THEIR AIRBORNE FILTH? They replaced individual scoops of a QUALITY ICE CREAM... With CHEAP crappy frozen yogurt!!! WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?!?!?! INSANITY.... UNSANITARY INSANITY!!!! I had gotten FOOD POISONING here once, BEFORE THIS REMODEL!!!! The Manager / Owner / Whatever he was.... All he had to say was "Our buffet is CHEAPER than others!!!!!"????? RUN. Don't Walk.... RUN!!!! Or GET the RUNS!!!! WE ARE DONE WITH THIS PLACE. COLOR US GONE, GONE, GONE. Too Bad. Bad. BAD. BAD, BAD, BAD!!!! G-O-N-E. read more

I don't even understand why and how this place has bad reviews. It's so pretty inside. The food is awesome. I've never seen it dirty at all and I've always had awesome service. We probably go to this place like once a month. It's really nice and worth the cost. read more

Good buffet, good food, nice choices, nice staff. HOWEVER,......that being said, this place has a real issue with their restrooms. Lord. The smell in the bathrooms is nauseating!!! It smells like rotten food and sewer backup mixed together. FIX THE BATHROOMS!!! read more

WooChi Super Buffet - Dinner with Dessert! - Buffets Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

October 24, 2019 400 PM. WOW you must eat here. Best buffet ever. 1 salad table, 1 fruit table, 5 food, grill, large area. WILL BE BACK

Very clean. Parking could be better. Friendly staff. Great selection of food. Have eaten there several times. Come early for evening meal, would suggest 4:00-4:30, cuz there gets to be a line waiting to get in starting around 5:00. Reasonable prices. Will definitely eat there again. read more

Worst food I've ever eaten. Food was cold, and I'm more than sure they were mixing and reusing old food with "fresh" food. Don't waste your money. read more

No. Just awful. I wasn't very impressed by this place when it was under the other name, but now, they're just dreadful. There were black things floating in my soda as if my glass had never been washed. When I pointed it out to the waitress she gave me attitude. The quality of their food is incredibly lacking. Their Mongolian grill meat is bathed in some sort of beige meat goo, and even after they've added seasoning it tastes as bland as eating paper. The ambiance is much nicer than before, but it's obvious they redecorated at the expense of better quality food. Don't bother with this place. read more

This is a lot better than other buffets. Food doesn't taste old or frozen off of microwave. Seriously better.

Food was ok. No seasoning. Was there after lunch and before dinner. Selection still good. Crab legs not offered all the time. Limited supply l. A lot of selection. read more

Don't even bother it's expensive and disgusting most of the food was burnt only thing that was good was the shrimp.waiters were rude too it was the first time coming and I was going to walk up to pay and the waiter literally stopped me because she thought I wasn't gonna pay and rudely said you pay at the table first and last time read more

Well, it's not like you're coming for authenticity but you are coming for a bountiful feast so keep that in mind when visiting. For the most part the food was actually pretty decent. Sushi was horrid and the dessert was mediocre at best. Good luck and fill that belly like a typical American does!! read more

Very Good buffet Clean,friendly staff Fresh food Lots of variety Only negative thing to say is that their fountain soda has that Mesa water smell to it. Other than that it's a great place to eat. For lunch all you can eat cost 23.50 for two people with all the soda and food you can eat. Highly recommended Will go back soon. read more

Horrible, go someplace else. Buffet food was unappetizing and bland, had mongolian stirfry so at least it was freshly made, that was bland. Sorry we spent our money there read more

Always skeptical trying a new buffet but was pleasantly surprised. Everything was fresh and tasty!! Will definitely return!

This place is big and busy, with a 15 minute wait for Sunday lunch. Service is good, with empty dishes removed quickly. There are so many choices that it's difficult to narrow them down. The good ones: hot and sour soup, fried shrimp, pot stickers. But the rest of our choices were not good: beef roast looked great, but we could barely cut, let alone chew it. Gave up. Same problem with teriyaki ribs. Chicken skewers were dry and cold. Saw king crab legs on others' plates, but that tray was empty throughout our visit. Smaller crabs yielded less than an ounce of meat. Salads were few. Desserts looked good, but were not. Thought about trying more items, but we were too depressed by then. Left. read more
