“ Kami is a solid buffet with a wide selection of sushi and hot foods. Their garlic shrimp is my favorite of the nigiri options, with other options like unagi, octopus, squid, salmon, tuna, yellowtail, shrimp etc. I come here to get my fix of sushi when I don't feel like only having AYCE sushi. Staff is very friendly and attentive, constantly taking our plates when we're done with them and refilling our water cups. I typically go for a Saturday dinner as that's when business is popping (and the best quality of their foods are out). I've had some lower quality days, but you get what you pay for in my opinion. They also have a hibachi grill, some dimsum options, and desserts including fruits (pineapple is my favorite), self served ice cream (cookies & cream!), and cakes. ”
“ Great for large parties. I have a buffet- obsessed family who love crab and shrimp...so this is where my mom wanted to celebrate her 87th bday. Also I liked the many booths along the entire length of the window, also comfortable for four or less. But don't try to reconfigure the larger tables together, they want to keep the large aisles. We ended up being a party of 12. There is a surcharge of 10 percent for parties of 8 or more. And a time limit of 90 minutes, but they were gracious and there were plenty of empty tables, so no one rushed us. 5/5 for service. We tipped when we asked the server to take our picture. And of course we tipped at the Mongolian bbq station. Food. For our party, my party was full of seniors (ask for senior price) brought their own crab crackers and picks and little meat mallets for the Alaskan king crab 5/5. I'm told it was sweet and salty, the king crab was the star 5/5...many loved the whole smaller crabs, and the large whole shrimp, the kind with the heads that you have to peel. They prepare shrimp many ways. 5/5. The sushi and sashimi and the Mongolian bbq, all 5/5. Basically if it's seafood, this place will put a smile on your face. There's even shark fin soup...and spicy snails. Didn't try it, so no rating. But yay, for having this variety...and for having yams 5/5. The pastry desserts are 2/5. The coconut macaroon was hard as a rock, couldn't even bite into it. Definitely a choking hazard. The only saving grace was the fruit at the salad bar and the banana pudding with the almond cookie crust....I told my party to try it as a dessert since it was located in the salad bar area not the dessert area...and at first glance, it looks unappetizing but its a 10/5 it's really surprsingly good...find it near the jello. There's a bar, but no one was working it. Overall, a recommend for the sushi and seafood. Also the Mongolian bbq...nice choices and perfect for vegetarian like me. One star off for pastries. ”
“ This place really should have higher stars - for the price, the variety, cleanliness, and quality is a deal compared to other "Asian buffets," and friendly staff. But also maybe 3 stars for Asian buffets is a mark of street cred. We came here with a large party - +40 that they could easily accommodate, (tip: lunch, we tried to come as close to opening to avoid crowds), and only required a $50 deposit. Tip: Drinks are not included. But the way the waitress initially asked us when we got seated made it sounded like it was included. Just be aware. ”
“ I don't know what's up with the other reviews but for $30 dinner you get unlimited seafood , sushi , Chinese food , dessert . What is not to love . This place is hustle bustle and super packed on a Sunday evening. The bussers are working hard and the attendants are too . I visited this place before covid years and lifetime ago it seems but I don't see any quality difference and it's honestly the same as I remember maybe better . After eating a few plates I just stare at the chandeliers and pretty ornate curtain drapes on the windows and wonder how I got here and where I'm going next I love this place it's the GEM of SGV If I can give more stars I would ”
“ As far as Asian buffets go, this place is amazing - we came here for lunch on a Sunday around 1pm - the place was busy but we didn't have a wait - the variety of food was the best I've ever seen at a buffet that isn't $100pp. Massive variety of sushi rolls, sashimi, crab legs galore, tons of seafood, cooked dishes , cold dishes, soups etc. The only thing missing was dim sum but that's not a deal breaker. Weekends are all day dinner prices bc of the seafood. For $25pp it's a steal. We all ate ourselves stupid and left in a food coma. ”
