Asia 1 Buffet — Restaurant in Tucson

Hands down the worst Chinese buffet in Tucson. It was so bad I actually left hungry. First time in 30 years I've left a buffet still hungry because it was that bad.

The sushi is TERRIBLE. All of their rolls are simply crabstick. Every one. The nigiri sushi (all they have is snapper and tuna) fish tasted just wrong, like it was dipped in bleach or something. They also do not season the rice at all, just give you plain steamed rice in all the sushi offerings.

The dinner plates are kept 1 foot off of the floor by your feet around the bars which is just nasty, and better look at them because at least 50% still have food on them.

70% of ALL the dishes were bone dry and inedible, and I was there at 12:30pm on a Friday when they were slammed. Obviously they're putting out leftovers from the day prior. I was excited that they had heads-on shrimp which I love, and they were big, but they were so overcooked (prob been cooking since yesterday) that they were dried out mush and inedible. The hot cheesy mussels were like rubber bands, obviously cooked a second time using the leftover steamed mussels they also have on the cold bar.

Only had 1 beef dish on the entire buffet, basic beef and broccoli.

The breaded chicken dishes were obviously pre-made and straight out of a bag frozen, not made in-house. The 2 non-breaded chicken dishes had zero flavor and were so dry you couldn't even chew them.

Buffet looks huge until you realize half of it is all nasty cold salads. The dumpling sauce is just wrong, way too much sugar and vinegar and barely any soy sauce.

Everything is so bland, its like they're allergic to seasoning. Nothing had any flavor at all. How do you make flavorless bbq ribs lol?? The only thing that was decent was the string beans, and again they had no flavor at all.

Also no napkins on the table, so you have to beg for them.

Do not go here. As soon as I got home I was sitting on the toilet. Go somewhere else. You'll be lucky if you don't get sick. Literally the worst Chinese buffet I've ever experienced in 30+ years of eating them in 6 different states. Absolutely terrible. And I was so excited for a new buffet but I will NEVER...

My husband and I enjoyed our first meal here. We came for lunch and received a senior discount. The lunch value was terrific. This relatively new restaurant is all buffet, with a huge variety of foods to meet most people's dietary preferences. There's a Mongolian barbecue section and a sushi section which includes both cooked and raw choices. They also offer many buffet stations replete with salads, fish and shrimp dishes, chicken, pork and beef dishes, soups, some All-American choices like French fries, many condiments, and a dessert bar. The shrimp were a good size, too. The food was fresh and very tasty. The buffet was kept replenished. The servers were friendly and attentive.

We went on a Saturday for lunch; The parking lot was busy but there were plenty of spaces for everyone. The restaurant was bustling but we didn't have to wait for seating. Also, there was easy access to the buffet stations.

The restauranr has three sections, two out in the open and a third that could become either an overflow room or a large private room with doors that close. It was being used for overflow when we were there.

People looked very happy and their plates (and stomachs) were full. It speaks highly of this newer restaurant's success. I wish it a long and fruitful time...

Overall we were very pleased with this buffet given our first experience and recommend people check it out. The price can't be beat and is better than other Asian buffet options we know of, especially for lunch price. The whole place was very clean. Everything tasted fresh which is excellent for buffet food. Service was good-great and we saw people paying at the front counter or from their tables. We do wish they had ice cream (it sort of looked like maybe ice cream was still coming at a future date?) and there was no salmon or eel options at the sushi station so that could be improved. They also had no iced tea but again I hope they will in the future. The other seafood choices were great, and most of the standard Asian buffet options were tasty and well done. We will certainly be back and will potentially like it more if they add a couple things. (add ice cream, add salmon / eel...
