Asian centered buffet in Daly City at what I think used to be Todai back in the day, located next to Century Theaters. There is a huge parking garage connected to the building for parking. Attended a party here where they reserved the back dining room which was nice, they had TVs and they provided tables for our gifts and favors. Service was great; this is an all Asian buffet with Japanese, sushi and sashimi, soups, make your own mala tang, choose your own meats to bbq, tons of Chinese food, frogs legs, dim sum, you name it! They have a fridge where you can get your own bottled drinks too. Tons of dessert and ice cream! Good bang for your buck, the only thing is if you’re allergic to seafood. We had some people at our party that was allergic to seafood so make your own mala tang you had to be careful because of the contamination of seafood items to make or throw into the soup. My friend got soup but found a clam so she couldn’t eat it and had to be very careful.

Lots of parties for a Saturday, my friend said if you didn’t get the private room to bring balloons or something to decorate or note where your area is yours.

Anyone visiting this newer buffet restaurant won’t be able to stop repeatedly comparing it to the 2 or 3 previous buffet restaurants in the same location. What’s new or better: the malatang/mini self-assembled hot pot bowls station was very popular with the young and old. The self-assembled teppanyaki station next to the malatang station is new, too, but almost no one tried or understood what it is. Maybe if they renamed it Mongolian BBQ, people might recognize it from the mall food courts. The limited selection at the dim sum station was mostly previously frozen buns in steamer baskets. The bbq pork buns tasted off. The cut fruit station, including canned peaches, didn’t look so appealing to me. My son missed the made-to-order hand rolls at the sushi station in the previous restaurant, but still found some sushi to his liking. Gone is the scoop-to-order ice cream. Instead you will find little ice cream cups full of air in the freezers at the self-service drink station. My wife enjoyed a particular dainty chocolate cake at the dessert station. She was impressed with the clean restroom and spacious dining room. Lunch is less expensive on weekdays, but there are fewer premium items, crab legs, etc. There is a 10% off discount for seniors 65 and over. There is an automatic 8% service fee when you prepay for your meal at the entrance.
