Asian Buffet - Chinese Food - Sushi - Salad Bar - Dessert - Party Rooms — Restaurant in Fairfield

READ BEFORE RENTING FOR AN EVENT

Food was amazing because they were busy and constantly bringing out new food. The reason I'm writing this review is because we were here today 3/16/2025 for my best friend's dad's and brother's birthday. Her mom Robin had rented out the back room for us and we had quite a large party of roughly 25+ people, maybe even 30+. The staff kept hovering the entire time to see when we were leaving and towards the end when we were doing gifts, even the managers were peeking in to see if we were done. It was almost an every 20 minute thing.

Now at this point you're probably wondering if we took our sweet time eating and were holding up the joint- We were here from 1:00pm to 3:30pm for the entire set up, party, and break down of the event. They kept telling us we couldn't use some of the tables in our room because "they may need them" (we used them anyways otherwise we would've been squished on top of each other).

Towards the end, they sat people in our room before we even got all the people out, presents or cake packed up. I understand from a business stand point that you wanna rotate people in and out of tables because its money- time is money but so is customer service and reputation. The room was rented out, we were there for 2.5 hours which was fast considering the amount of people that we had for TWO BIRTHDAYS.

One waitress was incredibly kind and I could tell she was juggling a lot but the rest of them made us feel like they wanted us gone to get more people in (more money in) after Robin had just dropped a decent bit of money paying for EVERYONE to eat plus buying decorations and gifts for her husband and son and renting out the room.

I am honestly very disappointed in how the matter was handled being someone who had worked in the food industry. It is very sad that it wasn't just one staff members but multiple who were hounding us to leave like they mentally saw it as a completed transaction before we even finished eating.

My best friend's family has been coming here for YEARS and they all agreed they have never been treated this way a single time in the past. Its safe to say our families and friends will never rent out a room here again and we may never eat here again because despite the food being great- dining here again would be us basically saying the behavior was acceptable when it wasn't. It was extremely stressful and...

I don’t normally share our dining experiences, however, this experience was particularly terrible, so I think that it needs to be shared. We decided to dine at Asian Buffet because it was close to home and we were hoping it was going to be good enough to make our regular Chinese buffet. After tonight’s ordeal, we won’t be back. Once there, we were seated quickly but then waited 15 minutes to get our drinks. The food was pretty unremarkable, it severely lacked flavor. Once we were finished, we gave our waitress my card to pay for the bill, 10-15 minutes go by and they still haven’t returned my card to me. They come back to confirm that I had given my card to the waitress, which I had (my boyfriend was there to confirm that). Then comes back with the manager or owner, not really sure, no one ever told us their names or who they were. Anyways, she proceeds to tell me they lost my card, that the waitress sat it on the counter to be charged, but she was busy and someone must have taken it. Then has the nerve to ask me for another card because they weren’t going to comp our meal even though THEY lost my card! She wasn’t even going to discount the meal until I started complaining. She discounted the meal a whole whopping $4, we still had to pay $30. She came back with our receipt and some coupons for “the next time we come in”. We were astounded by how the situation was handled. The negligence of the waitress and the manager was just baffling. So with all that being said I absolutely do not recommend coming here, there are plenty of other places to get better Asian food and service! My recommendation to you would be Twin Dragon in...

Both Chinese buffets near us closed down during the pandemic, but we remembered coming here once years ago and really enjoying it. We tried it again and were really impressed. We were seated immediately. I ordered a hot tea which was brought out by the time I got my first plate; they brought an entire teapot of prepared oolong and sweeteners are up on the buffet. I ended up drinking the whole pot. The buffet is set up like most Chinese buffets: with a cold dessert/fruit bar, multiple hot bars, and two soup options. Plenty of clean plates and bowls were available.

Those with dietary restrictions (vegetarian in particular) have many options here. Vegetable fried rice, rice noodles, spring rolls, and egg rolls are available, alongside "entree" options like garlic eggplant, spicy cabbage, sauteed mushrooms, sauteed green bean, etc. Miso soup is also available. The sheer number of vegetarian options here at this buffet is impressive and deserves mentioning.

The only thing I wish had been different during my experience was our seating area; we were the only customers masked and were seated near a corner, so we kept getting passed by customers going up to and back from the bar while we were eating, which felt a little unsafe. This is a large buffet and it has plenty of seating even when busy, so I wished they had spread everybody out a little more.

Overall, we were very impressed. This is definitely one of the best Chinese buffets we've ever been to, and...
