You can get just one item Togo! I was not feeling well and needed a brothy soup. I immediately think of egg drop or wonton soup because this is what I was given as a kid to feel better. As there is no "great" Asian places in my direct area I headed towards Publix, planning on making my own. I see Yami buffet and thought maybe I can just get soup and go home and rest. So, I walked in and asked the gentlemen at the front and he said yes and gave me a Togo container. The entire cost was $4.26!! Let me tell you the soup was exactly what I needed and hit all of the marks. The inside is well lit and very clean. Thank you Yami for feeding my soul read more

DO NOT EAT HERE!!! YOU WILL LOSE YOUR APPETITE!!! KIZUNA ASIAN BUFFET IS SO MUCH BETTER!!! The sushi was mediocre, the fried food was all cold, the chicken wings all had this very strange flavor, and ALL the ordinary Chinese dishes had that similar flavor regardless of the protein type. They do not receive enough foot traffic to replace the food soon enough, so it just sits there and either gets cold, or becomes mush. A health inspector would have a field day here. You can see it in the staffs eyes. They know its terrible. And they're all just hoping you dont notice. Go to Kizuna. Its a drive... But its SO worth it. read more

Everything was a 2.75 / 3.0 out of 5, just ok. The chicken entrees like Gau and Honey chicken had chewy bit, and one of guk to spit out in a napkin. The Gau sauce was overpowering. The rangoons had hardly any cream in them. The hot and sour soup was meh. So good enough but not a destination place. The most tasty things I ate were the Hershey coffee ice cream, and the mocha cake. read more

Yami Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

It's an open ultra modern buffet with no traces of the old restaurant, FC, anywhere near here! We were greeted right away and told to help ourselves to a styrofoam container and jump right into the To-Go Buffet experience. The To-Go Buffet was $6.99/lb for basics and $12.99/lb for sushi. I don't think the sushi price is worth it for the money. The decent: Butter Potatoes, Broccoli and Chicken, Pepper Steak, Fried Rice The bland: Chicken Potstickers, Lo Mein, and all the rest When you want some food court Chinese (minus Bourbon Chicken), but you don't feel like making the long trek through the malls.. read more

Yami Buffet - Sashimi - Chinese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

See all

Decided to stop by Yami as it is fairly new to Metro West. The prices looked fair and it was very clean looking, even had a few Gatcha machines at the front. The service was good from the attendant who helped us as we got a buffet plate to go so we could sample a bit of everything for a snack. That is really where the issue is, is that while the pricing is not bad...it is not good for the bland food that we tried. Nothing really stood out and the 3 different chickens we tried all kind of tasted the same. The lo mein noodles were the worst I've ever had, I even didn't eat them all as it was basically spaghetti. Now the sushi was decent, but you could get cheaper and similar/better quality at Publix or Whole Foods. Maybe if you do the app you can eat there for the sushi then it'd be worth it. But unfortunately I can not recommend this buffet as much as I was hoping to love it read more

Food: quality was good and a pretty good variety of options, ranging from traditional Asian food to typical American bbq. There's also fruits and deserts were good, fruits are more watery than sweet, desert was good :) Service: when walking in was instantly directed to seating and asked what drinks we would like, waitresses continuously travel throughout to take away garbage and assist with any questions or requests. The restaurant is very clean and definitely one of the best buffet spots in Orlando. read more

Went in with the family to try the buffet, and it's mid at best, some of the food lacked flavor, while others stood out, but very few items. The hot food was being rotated well, but the sushi station looked pretty abandoned with rolls not being replaced. The hibachi station left more to be desired, with only a few options available. The service was nice and prompt for refills on drinks and clearing the table. However, I wouldn't return. read more

The ambiance was great, service good as well, but the food overall was not good. Had the butter garlic oysters, ribs, and other items. The garlic butter oysters was the best thing. Ambiance was perfect, the food didn't match. Don't think my family and i will be returning here. read more

after reading 4.6 google reviews we family of 4 giving a try on sunday dinner there . very disappointed. seafood is not fresh exspically raw oyster. sushi from start to finish have no 3 pc or empty no refills. $105 .00 bills we all still coming home having reman noodles. frist and last . I would recommend crazy buffet 2 mile away have much better food. exspically 6 pm food should have always fill up . read more

I have been to a few Chinese buffets and they definitely have their good and bad points. If you are fan of variety then buffets are a great choice. Small portions can let you pick and choose many different items. However, you do lose some of the distinct flavors each dish is known for. Yami buffet is true on both of those. Although there are MANY different choices here, the individual flavors get lost. That being said, the service is quick and friendly. There were many people throughout the restaurant helping guests, cleaning up, restocking and just giving really good service in general. The ambiance is bright and welcoming, and the restaurant was very neat and clean. My only REAL disappointment was the lack of vegetables and vegetable dishes. Otherwise Yami buffet is pretty standard food wise, and above average in service and cleanliness. read more

Such a small selection of food. Sushi taste bland, fried stuff taste dry, soup lacking the basic (salt), sea food... shrimp was ok, crawfish falls apart cuz it's frozen too long then cooked so meat is all destroyed. Habachi taste ok if you have a sweet tooth. Everything else is just sad. Yes it is cheap but I guess it's cheap cuz food is crap. Whoever rated a 5 star on this I seriously question their taste buds. Never returning here. Go to ocean buffet or crazy buffet or even banyan (not the best but at least it's better than here) This feels like a waste of money. read more

KUDOS to Carey for providing supreme quality customer service! The buffet was $20.99 and included military discount. The ambiance is a bit quiet. I highly recommend all to come and visit to support this local business! read more

My daughter and went to Yami Buffet tonight. Everything looked pretty, but the food temperatures were cold and a few items barely warm. The foods with batter that should be crispy, were cold and soggy. The hibachi was bland. The sushi, most I couldn't eat because of cream cheese or mayonnaise. Sashimi was good. The tempura was cold and spongy. The "hot" dishes were cold and flavorless. Some even gelatinous. I don't think they had the food warmers on. One station that was warm, was noodles. Unfortunately they forgot flavor. I tried soy sauce to add salt to my food and that didn't help. If I were to give 1-5 stars they would owe me. Too expensive for the poor quality. My suggestion for AYCE Sushi and more is Suki Hanna in Hunter's Creek. Crispy, hot, flavorful and fair price. $29. Responded to someone who thinks I'm BS. Trey Gonzalez I wish I was wrong. The sashimi was good. But the sushi rolls were cream cheese or mayo drizzled. I can't eat either. The sushi was cold in that section. As they should be. The fried items were soggy/mushy. In each section. One table had boiling water under the food but the other tables maybe they had the temperature too low. Food was cold to barely warm. Cold potatoes with no seasoning. The green beans lukewarm good flavor. The noodles cold/ lukewarm not much flavor. The table with glazed food like honey chicken, 2 shrimp dishes, was lukewarm. But anything breaded was soft and spongy. I watched as they refilled the crab rangoons and put the chewy uncrispy ones on top. White rice was fine. Hibachi was the only thing nice and hot, but needed more flavor. I should have brought a food thermometer to check the temperature before cooking. Meat tasted off. The fries table with sugar donuts was lukewarm, but the donuts too firm from sitting. The paste in the sesame balls and red bean dumplings was dry and flaky instead of smooth. Didn't even touch the American food as the Mac and cheese looked like a brick and had a skin on top from sitting. Luckily I took small portions to try before going for bigger portions. I usually go back for what was tasty. I added soy sauce to add salt, but no improvement. Nothing tasted fresh. So I left hungry and ate afterwards. This location was in MetroWest, off Hiawassee. It was a drive for us, as we live in East Orlando. Yami Buffet was the correct place. Zero stars. Btw, Yama is wonderful. Off I-Drive. read more

This use to be Friendly Confines and I'm so glad this restaurant is here now. The old restaurant was gutted and completely remodeled. Everything is sharp and clean. It's located in a shopping plaza that has a Publix that's being remodeled. It's on the right hand side of Hiawassee so a lot of people might not notice it even though they have grand opening signs out front. We live under one mile away, so I've been waiting for it to open. My favorite was the tuna tataki, salmon sashimi, and sushi. My second plate was mistakenly regular Chinese buffet food and I couldn't eat anymore - well I did have a piece of cheesecake, but there's always room for dessert. It was on the sweet side, but I just didn't eat the crust and it was good. My husband tried the hibachi and the shrimp were medium to large sized. I hate to recommend this place because I don't want to have to wait to get in, this place is great. You can't beat the $21 price tag and $15 weekday lunch. read more

Restaurant was clean and food was continuously refreshed and refilled. Food tasted good. They had standard Chinese buffet food. No pizza was offered for the kids. Hibachi was very tasty. I wish they listed what each sushi roll is. For the kids price they use a height chart in the front of the restaurant. For the height, I would say probably eight years and younger for children's price. My 10-year-old was too tall. Service was attentive. Drinks filled, and dirty plates cleaned up. read more

I saw many people recommend this restaurant and said that was the best buffet in Orlando. I come to tell you that is far from being a good (not even decent) restaurant by the lack of variety of food that wasn't even fresh to begin with. I came in and craved some sushi, it's what i ate the most and it was.. average, you could taste the lack of freshness in the sushi and makes you think you're playing russian roulette with salmonella. Servers were way too attentive, which for some people is good and don't get me wrong i feel that a good restaurant needs good customer service, but when i tell you these servers were obnoxious THEY WERE VERY OBNOXIOUS. Mind you they don't even ask you if they can take your plate away, they just take it as if nothing. I had to stand up several times to get a new plate everytime i finished one and it was so annoying because they were always on top of you. The ambiance was depressing itself, trendy music playing in the entire place but it was so empty when I came in with my family, maybe there were like 4-5 tables occupied in the entire place and the restaurant is big. So when we saw that the restaurant was empty we had our doubts BUT we decided to just go on and eat there because how would you know that a place is good or not if you never tried it? But I did, let me tell you PLEASE AVOID THIS RESTAURANT! The food is far from fresh and also tacky, service was eh, but also you can risk spending the rest of your day on your toilet shitting yourself, or even worse, vomiting all you ate like my mom did in the restaurant (yeah, nasty.) Im a good person so I decided to take the time to recommend an actual buffet that is totally worth it! It's called Osaka Bay Buffet located in Kissimmee, attention is awesome, a whole variety of food you can pick and an impeccable ambiance, actually every seat was reserved and full the first time I went there. So if you want a good buffet, please consider going to that one i recommended or GET IN YELP TO SEE THE REVIEWS!! So yeah, everything can improve from this place, maybe they could start shutting down the restaurant and find a better hobby. Peace out. read more

Food isn't good it doesn't taste fresh at all. It's clean because it's new. Doubt it will last as long as it took to build it out, unfortunately! read more

I'd just like to state I rarely give out ones like this, but in Yami Buffet's case. It's warranted. Yami buffet is an all you can eat that looks pretty nice, servers are nice, ambiance is what you'd expect from a buffet. My problem is that the morning after, I've been vomiting and having pretty bad diarrhea. I believe that this comes from the warm, not hot Steak. Or the warm sushi. Avoid if possible read more

Amazing Restaurant and food is awesome and the staff is Top Notch, huge selection, hibachi grill and sushi . read more

Yami Buffet - Hours and pricing - Chinese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Great food and service. Atmosphere was vibe. Definitely should check out if you're in the metrowest area

Saw this place on social media and wanted to try them out. The server was very attentive and that's rare for an Asian buffet. To me it was lacking flavors and variety. The food seem like it was sitting there since lunch time (dry). There were only claws for the crab left and the fried shrimp was mushy. I'm so sad because it looked amazing from social media. I may come back and try it again because everyone have an off day. read more

As soon as me and my family walked in we were instantly greeted nicely and the service and food was amazing.

I want to reiterate that most recent visual to Yami is as good or better than my first visit. All the different varieties of food are excellent. I bias towards the sashimi and shrimp. All the choices are always available, don't have to wait. You must try the hibachi as well. I am a frequent visitor and I sincerely hope Yami is around for a long time. read more
