First time at this restaurant to celebrate my son's birthday and was very pleased with the quality of food, cleanliness, the attentiveness of the staff and the atmosphere. They stay on top of rotating buffet dishes as they get low and were constantly putting out fresh sushi rolls. They have a light board birthday sign and bring out a slice of birthday cake when the staff sing happy birthday. Great experience for the whole family
