Customer Review Summary
Prices have increased to $55 per person, which many reviewers find too high for the value. The quality of oysters and ease of accessing crab legs and lobster were criticized. Concerns about safety due to a slippery floor and potential food-related illness were noted. Some positive experiences highlighted the variety of seafood options and good quality dishes like King Crab Legs and desserts. Service was described as friendly and attentive, but the dining experience could be chaotic due to crowding and long lines. Overall, while there were mixed opinions on certain food items and the cost, many enjoyed the extensive selection and variety offered at the buffet. Reservations are recommended, especially on busy nights like lobster night, where patrons experienced rudeness from other diners. Improvements could be made to the outdoor aesthetics of the restaurant.

I am a little disappointed. I’ve been here 1 year ago and remembered the prices were something around $40 per person. 1. I brought my family here today and found out the prices are now $55 per person. So total was $240 for 4 people. It is WAY too much for this place. 2. Oysters were disgusting. I don’t understand why oysters only taste good at the restaurant (brigantine, blue water and so on). Why are they so bad at the buffet and H mart??? 3. Crab legs and lobster were very difficult to open with the tools they provided. It was very messy after we were done eating it. 4. The floor was very slippery. I didn’t feel safe carrying my baby around. 5. As soon as my husband finished his food he suddenly felt very bad. His stomach started hurting. (Although he didn’t eat a lot) 6. Also we came there at 7:30 pm and before entering the buffet I asked hostess if there is still gonna be all the food present. She said yes. But the sushi bar was half empty. Overall, I came to a conclusion to not coming back here.

WOW! They are not kidding when they say they have over 100 kinds of sea food! I had some of the best cooked King Crab Legs ever. So many things were done just right at this restaurant. The place could compete with the best at Las Vegas. Was able to try many dishes I've never had before. For under $50 and a military discount, you can't beat it. Would like to go back on a Thursday for Lobster 🦞 night!

This is a great Seafood Buffet with plenty of selection with Cooked Seafood and other types of Asian and American Cuisine. There is a Sushi Bar, Carving Station, Teppanyaki Grill, Noodles Station, Salad & Fruit, and Desert. The food overall is great with the large selection. The staff are really friendly and polite and the service is okay. It can get chaotic because you have to get in line to get certain items and there is a limit of 1 serving of a half baked lobster tail per a trip but you can make as many trips as you like. The lobster Claws and Crab Legs are cold and you can get as much as you like at any time. If you like Seafood and Prime Rib Buffet it a great experience and value!

This was my second time. Lots of different types of food. There are a few dishes I do like. Sushi was ok. Dessert was delicious. Price is worth it if you’re an outsider trying it out for the first time.

A good friend of mine had treated me to 100s Seafood Buffet as her token of appreciation for helping her move. We both love seafood, however, I’m not a big fan of crab legs and lobster (messy food and can’t hang working for my food). So, we met up on a Monday rather than Thursday (lobster tail night, make sure you get more info on how this works). We figured, less crowd, less lines, and calmer,environment. We were seated immediately upon our arrival. We sat closer to the sushi bar area. Our server was attentive and friendly, unlike others I have encountered in the past. I wanted to give our server props but I failed to get her name. Bummer. Don’t get me wrong, the servers I’ve had in the past weren’t terrible. Most were bare minimum, no personality, just plain basic. But, then again, it’s buffet dining, right. Dirty dishes were always cleared from table and rarely an issue. 100s seafood buffet definitely stands behind its name - tons of selection. In the case of buffet dining, I’ve learned to pace myself and not stuff myself, especially when it’s with one food item you plan to eat. After all, I didn’t go to 100s to eat only rice, french fries and Cesar salad. This place is seafood extra, you just need to know where to begin…sushi, seafood, meats, poultry, duck, noodles, teppanyaki grill, salads, veggies, fruits, ice cream, rows of desserts… i may have missed other stuff but you get the picture. One-stop shop buffet. As for taste, no complaints on my end. The majority of my dining experience at 100s has been birthday celebrations. Like its predecessor, Todai buffet, I was hoping 100s would offer similar of discount (ie birthdays). Come to find out - they do now! Lots of free parking. If there’s any room for improvement, the outdoor needs trimming, some bush cutting and removal of dead plants. Definitely not as attractive as the indoor. After all, people pay good money to dine here. The outdoor should be just as important as the indoor My past and recent dining experience has been good, so far.

Lot's of options, my most favorite one was the sushi and crab legs, everything was very fresh! One thing that was meh was the Peking duck. Obviously didn't get a chance to try everything in one visit so keeping it 5star overall review for now!

The food here is absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend the crab legs. From appetizers to desserts, this restaurant exceeded all our expectations! Our family especially enjoyed the appetizers, the variety of desserts, and the hand-churned ice cream. If you’re a foodie like me, you’ll love this place. The menu has a fantastic selection of dishes, and we loved everything we tried. Reservations highly recommended. On the weekend is very crowded, so prepare to wait to get a table and parking. Military and Senior discount available.

Well, I can say I went on lobster night, which meant it was super busy. The people there ( other patrons) were just rude and very pushy as if the food was gonna be gone, lol. The restaurant itself had a variety of dishes which I liked but the brisket for me was very undercooked. I don't like my meat red, bleeding, or raw, lol. The noodles were okay but dry. Some things I got were cold, but for a buffet, it was good. The other dishes I got, such as shrimp, chicken, and potatoes, were all on point. Very expensive, around $56.00. I left full and definitely got my money's worth. Our waitress was on it despite being super busy. She managed to keep our refills coming and took our empty plates. I think the crowd and overall behavior were affecting my experience. All in all, a decent buffet that I would encourage folks to check out.
