Teppanyaki Grill & Supreme Buffet

My wife and I went for lunch, we thought our bill would be like 40 dollars but it wasn’t it 20 and some change.

I gave them 4 stars for consistency, the food here is always good, I have a group of friends that meets up for lunch about once a month, we end up here about every other time, so I have probably been here a dozen times and I’ll continue to return, it is not a place to take a date you want to impress, hence the negative reviews from the food snobs, it’s just a place where you go to eat, there’s a good variety of sushi, crawfish, salmon, shrimp and soup, I always feel like I get my money’s worth, and that’s just with the sushi, about ten bucks for lunch, that includes a two dollar tip.

This was my first visit to this place, and it was interesting. I have to say the size and cleanliness of the building was quite impressive. They have a wide variety of different food on their buffet that you don’t see at other buffets. The one thing I’d say to stay away from is the American food and the Hibachi grill. They rest of the food was hot fresh, and different. A lot of shrimp and seafood options. Hand dipped ice cream and a wide variety of dessert options, including flan. Our server was a young gurl named May. She was very polite, cleared the table, and brought refills instantly without asking. She made the experience great with her smile, and watching her clean the floor and tables religiously. Knowing the employees are pleasant and clean extensively, is just as important as good food in a restaurant. Even though it’s a bit of a drive from Pasco County, we’ll definitely be back when in the area.

Decided to come to this buffet despite some bad reviews because I knew the kids would love it. The place is big with a lot of choices. It looks clean and is pretty cheap. I don’t remember the exact prices, but 2 and under was free, ages 3 – 6 was just under $ 5, ages 6 – 11 was about $ 6 – 7, and adults were just over $ 10.
It’s true that the food wasn’t that good but the kids didn’t mind at all. They loved trying new things and being able to choose what they wanted. I may return for the kids, but I’ll make sure I’m not that hungry.

As others have said, this buffet is average at best. Don’t expect anything special from the food, the location, or the staff.
Food: Average. There is a huge selection of food. However, the oddest part in my opinion is the lack of Chinese food options. There is a great deal of other options including plenty of American options. They keep the selections up for the most part. I was disappointed in the fried rice, as well as the lo mien. I was expecting more from the staples.
Staff: Average. Today, it seemed they could have used one or two more wait staff. I wasn’t a fan that you have to get your bill from the only waitress there, wait for her to come back around and get my credit card, and then cash me out. I would have liked to just walk to the front, pay and get out of there, but they don’t allow that. Also, on my way out, I saw the host of the place, and he saw me leaving, but didn’t say anything, which is a bit odd for most places, especially Chinese food place.
Overall: There isn’t much competition in this market, so, you get what you get. On occasion I will go here because I like Chinese food, and there isn’t much else. But it will only be on occasion.

Inconsistent… And sadly really 2.5 stars if I had an option, but I rounded up due to the sushi getting a bit more creative my last couple visits. I’ve now been here 4 times. First two times were ho-​hum average, third time was fantastic, and my last visit was awful and borderline inedible. I just can’t understand how a place that serves so much of the same crap can yield such different outcomes! Maybe it’s just laziness, I don’t know. Highlights? Sushi is good if you come early. The stir-​fried baby bok choy and eggplant are not something you usually see on a Chinese buffet and are quite tasty as well as some of the dim sum by the soup station. Lowlights? They have Elmer’s paste they take from a box and mix it with water and try and pass it off as mashed potatoes! Their desserts are just gross, and half of the buffet items are super salty, and some are completely flavorless with no salt at all! I just don’t get it. They need some serious quality control here. If they do, they may just be able to turn it around. In the meantime. If you manage your expectations, it’s still a cheap meal for what it’s worth. But you’ll have to go further north for a decent Chinese buffet unfortunately.

ew. So typical buffet except everything is disgusting. Brandon had gone up to the Hibachi grill and the guy cooked the shrimps for maybe 30 seconds, everything was cold and the shrimp was not cooked, completely see through. The best part about the meal food wise was the Ice cream, everything else was not good or tasty. However the servers and everyone that worked there was super nice, the food was just bad. Won’t be back.

La comida es excelente y cuentan con una gran variedad de platos. El lugar se mantiene limpio y bien atendido. Los sushis son deliciosos y muy variados. En mi opinión es el mejor bufet de comida china que e podido ir.
Lo recomiendo

Sometimes a place like this is exactly what you want.
Typical Chinese buffet food, nothing pretentious, but all the staples are here. The sushi was good (though one roll had surprise jalapeño in it, not a fan), everything was hot that was supposed to be hot and cold that was supposed to be cold. Quick drink refills and plate take-​aways, and one cute little waitress even asked how I was doing! Shock.
There were a few nice dim sum dishes I don’t normally see at buffets, like sticky rice wrapped in a banana leaf and steamed taro buns served right in the steamer basket. For eleven bucks I was satisfied.

Went here with my grandparents and my mother. We were seated immediately and the service was very efficient. Two seniors and two adults came to $ 34.04 not including tip. The food was an excellent array of Asian/​traditional American. The variety of selection was almost overwhelming. I’m full and I wish I wasn’t just so I could keep trying more food. Aside from all of the previously made food, they have a sushi bar and a grill chef. They have a tv showing CBS, and the restaurant overall is spacious and clean. Overall I’d return without any hesitation. I actually wish a place like this would open in Boston so I could come more often.

In a just world, this place would more likely rate 2.5−3 stars at best. Most of the items range from edible to okay in taste/​quality, with the service in about the same range. Well, life in St. Pete isn’t fair regarding buffets because this is pretty much the only game in town when there should be at least 3 – 4 other places like this to choose from.
This place has a few other aces up its sleeve that give it an additional star.1) It’s cheap and HUGE, with lots of choices. If you’re a stoner or pregnant, this should be your mecca. 2) All you can eat sushi. True, the sushi is Publix grade, but still… 3) It’s been many moons since I’ve seen such a spread of crawfish awaiting my loving embrace.
This place would probably make a killing if it opened up 24 hours on the weekend. But considering the part of town it’s in, among the rent-​by-​the-​hour motels, I doubt they’ll ever go that far.
