The food was uncooked, and I'm not talking about the sushi. They had a few of my favorites that were still a bit raw. The breaded shrimp were still translucent from undercooking, the duck was extremely cooked, and the tilapia was bright pink in the middle. They had wings that were very crunchy and tasty on the outside but still bleeding in the middle. The wings tray also had some fried meat on a stick that had an off sour bitter spoiled flavor. A lot of things in the menu had mayonnaise added to it that was old like it sat out and got gelatinous, but was blended and reused anyway.

Their sushi was about the best part of the buffet. Even though the sushi was not better than WinCo or Ralph's/StaterBros sushi. A lot of the dishes were dirty with residues from the wash still on the plate. Brought napkinsto wipe them down. The booths were the same, unclean, and you'll find yourself wiping your own table down. The booths had a fierce gathering of flies in the windows that had no qualms about inviting themselves to your plate asking if you were going to eat what they were landing on,"You gonna eat that???" No Sir, I replied, pushing the plate away. I figured I'd try the fruit. Why not? You can't mess up fruit! Right? Wrong! I was so wrong. The honeydew was mostly rine and too hard to eat or flavorless. The strawberries and cantaloupe taste like they were rinsed in old mop water and smelled like a gym sock. I never understood the red gell sauce on the bananas???

After trying all of the lineup, I didn't have time to get any crab legs, which I usually do. Not today, I could keep the food down. My stomach doesn't do undercooked meats or seafood. It ends up coming back up on me, and I won't want to eat or drink anything for a few hours. I also did not try the stir fry chef nor the meat that is hand sliced and served. It would seem like I'm bashing this establishment for clout or out of spite. You'd be far from the truth. I used to love this buffet but was very disappointed today. On top of that, this was us celebrating my wife's birthday. Now I have my head hung low.

Then there was an argument in the kitchen, I suppose they figured out who's mis-cooking the servings, lol. What made matters worse was this meal cost nearly $80 for 2 to eat. I gave a $15 tip and ran to the car, where it all came rushing up and out in the parking lot. I left the Luxe Buffet with regrets that I didn't just go to Denny's instead. Needless to say, unfortunately, I don't think I'll be returning after this trip through the Luxe Buffet.
