Sorry, I'd have to give this place a 2-stars. I'm not trying to bitch at this restaurant at all, although I really want to give it a 3-stars but I just feel like it doesn't deserve it, at least for now anyways... If we're happened to be here again and if the quality exceeds my current rating, I'll definitely be fair and write an updated version!\n\nOur first time to this place was on a weekday and the food was not \"eatable,\" in my taste. The egg drop soup smelled like they have used a few rotten eggs to cook. I got a small bowl and hate wasting food although it's a buffet. Unfortunately, after half of the spoonful I had to take a big gulp of water to wash down this horrible taste of rotten eggs. Never mind I thought, I'll get a Miso soup to eat with Sushi instead! Omg, I felt like I had just swallow a huge chunk of salt from the Miso soup. What on Earth is this... Super-super salty! It wasn't like I scooped from the bottom of the soup when I got it (you know how it's always more salty as you reach to the bottom of the soup.) In addition, the Sushi rice was sour and then too much cream cheese in the rolls, that makes the whole pieces just plain sour! Awesome, another huge gulps of water! We all know the rule of thumb for going to a buffet is don't drink too much water, right? \n\nIt made me wonder if their chef even try to taste his/her food after he/she had made them. Because it got to the point that those dishes that I mentioned above were NOT eatable! Other dishes were OK... quite frankly, not good but eatable. As I was eating bits of other dishes, I noticed that one of the cooks brought out a pot of hot water and dumped the whole thing into the Miso soup. O.K.... You might think that it's normal to do that! I don't think so, especially at a restaurant. It makes customers feel like they don't care about their food. What I think they should have done is they should take the whole soup pot back and re-cook on the stove with more water added, using the appropriate temperature. That way the tofu, seaweed and the broth can all be at the same temperature. Have you ever eaten a soup that the broth is hot but all other stuff in there is either warm or cool? Well, that's how it's gonna taste like when you use a quick fix method like that after the soup has been sitting out for at least 15 minutes.\n\nI appreciate the fact that the manager tries to make the space around the food area clean by keeping an eye on the floor. But I wish that he would have been a little more thoughtful in considering the taste of the food as well, and perhaps hire someone that knows how to make sushi or sushi rice! Because the sushi rice honestly tasted like they have dumped a whole lot of vinegar in there. Maybe, it was an accident... Who knows! But I don't appreciate their business mentality of making their food. If it needs to be fixed, then fix it properly, because people do pay to eat. It doesn't matter what prices you charge, it can be cheap, expensive or average, but the QUALITY is what makes a business succeeed!
