    I have eaten a number of these Resturants around the US, this was by far my least favorable experience. Food literally dumped on our table without description. We did not order AYCE, but we were made to feel like we did. Had to ask multiple times for silver, water and refills for the 5 people at the table.

    I think this is the 4th location I’ve been to because it really is one of my favorite restaurants ever, and this one was a bit less nice than the others. The kitchen was blasting music that was bleeding into the restaurant (which is pretty small compared to others) so it was really clashing with the music in the restaurant. The workers were all very nice but every 2 minutes someone would ask us if we wanted to order more food so it was a bit aggressive lol. Would recommend the Pasadena one over this one!
