Hibachi Buffet — Restaurant in Duluth

This was one of the most upsetting dining experiences I’ve ever had, and I feel deeply disrespected and targeted. As a Black customer, I expected the same basic courtesy any guest should receive, but from the moment we arrived, the treatment we received was discriminatory, unwelcoming, and outright offensive. There was no greeting just a cold “how many,” while we watched other customers of different races being welcomed warmly with smiles and proper hospitality. We were followed to the restroom as if we were trying to leave without paying, even though our food was still on the table, and we had not finished eating. This profiling was humiliating and completely unwarranted. To make matters worse, we found a hair in the food. We were told we couldn’t continue eating and had to pay despite the food being labeled clearly as dinner and us making it known that paying was not a problem. Their behavior made it very clear we were not welcome there because we’re Black. The energy, the stares, the whispers, the dismissive tone it was all a blatant act of racism and prejudice. No one deserves to be treated like this. We left feeling sick, not just from the food, which upset our stomach, but from the sheer disrespect and violation of basic human decency. I will never return, and I strongly urge other Black patrons to reconsider supporting a business that shows such clear racial bias and mistreatment. Should have read the reviews before coming because it seems racism is an issue...

Food was delicious but both my friend and i felt rushed. We were there 40 minutes and the waitress kept asking us if were we finished yet! She gave us our receipt after we were there 15 minutes and since it is a buffet i didn't think twice about that, but after that she kept coming up to table while we were eating asking if you want you can pay here are you finished? Clearly seeing our mouths full trying to eat in peace. So we both looked at the door to see if they were waiting for tables. Nobody was waiting then we looked around the restaurant they clearly had 4 empty tables. So my friend said I feel so rushed!! But why? So when waitress came the next 5 minutes and again asked are you finished you can pay me i told her my friend is paying with a bankcard when we are finished we will pay at the register thank you! She kept insisting! After we finished we walked out and both said...I won't be back here!! He didn't tip only because we were so rushed!My stomach was in KNOTS!! I WILL NOT BE BACK!! Very...

Please please PLEASE do not believe these reviews about how clean this place is. It is beyond disgusting the condition of this buffet. It has been remodeled and seems to be owned by the same company that owns the Golden Apple in Snellville. I wasn’t surprised at how filthy everything was once I saw that they are most likely ran by the same people. The one in Snellville recently failed their health inspection. And I wouldn’t be surprised if they failed theirs too. We had to dig through the stack of “clean” plates because they still had food on them and were dirty. Workers did not have gloves on while serving the food. Line cooks working the hibachi also mixed your food with other people food. I found a piece of watermelon in the raw meat. Door handles leading into restroom was filthy. Endless dirtiness. We did not enjoy our food at all because of how unclean everything seemed. Waitress also hovered over us while signing our bill. Very unprofessional. Not...
