Twas my first time at Golden Koi. We arrived there past 2 pm. and didn't know until we paid for the dinner price. That was odd!! It was a difference of $6.00 if lunch time. The food was good, i love the grill the most. You will have to put all the spices ans ingredients you want and give it to the cook. I just have a couple of spices but it turned out really tasty, I was impressed, so I gave him a tip! Worth coming back!
Went on a weekend when all day it's $25.
2nd time there, I like the variety of food, this time chicken BBQ was yum, beef stew oversalted, sushi - whatever the one piece I got- wasn't any tasty, some other food I tried was alright, sweets were great, but I feel I didn't eat much for $25 since I don't even like seafood much.. wooh... tried something from a seashell big and small, ehhh sand on teeth and I don't even know how people love the stuff, had to spit out 😅; i love the eggrolls and those fried triagles ..
The food was Plentiful and good. I was craving a buffet for choices and it was good. The sushi was fairly basic and I didn't try the hibachi but I loved wonton soup and shrimp a lot. Staff was quiet and stayed busy clearing tables. I'm not on this side of town often but may visit next time I am if I'm craving a buffet again.
Great Seafood Buffet!
Better selections than you local seafood buffets. Cleaner and less crowded as well. Price may be a bit higher but well worth it! Will definitely go back again when we're in the area!
It's a bit too pricey comparing it to other buffet places. The food overall is pretty good and an okay selection of sea food items. The restrooms were dirty. But I will still come back.
My visit here today was great I was in the area so it was nice, to be able to pop in right after stopping at my chiropractor.
The location is very nice and has a huge amount of choices around the buffet counters plus they have desert, and salad if that's how you'd like to start off but there no right or wrong.
Overall the price was reasonable, food perfect temp, all nice and fresh and well displayed for endless plate building for whatever your feeling like, Thank you working staff and employees for making this a awesome 1st visit to the location!!

Tell you the truth, it was my first time in this place when it wasn't that busy, had great experience, food was hot and tasty, clean and waitress was always cleaning our table, service was great 👍
Pretty good place if you want to get some food. Lots of food options to choose from, like A LOT! You won’t be able to try everything in one visit. Decent price for the food given.
Very yummy food, plenty variety, tasty soups, lot of sea food options, make your own Mongolian dish, pizza for the kids, sushi, rich decadent icecream and much more. Staff was friendly and attendant, overall great experience.
This is my first time coming here since the lockdown. I'll drive a long ways just to come here as it that good a buffet. The place is clean .... yep, even the restrooms! As any good buffet customers knows, get here early, best is 11am opening, so the food is the freshest and you get to be the one to dig in first to the food and it's not all messed up yet.
The prices have gone up, but it's still worth the lunch price of $14.99. Cause what other buffet for that price will your get crab, prawns and fish and all the other tasty food? My fave here is actually the pork spare ribs, cooked Chinese style. Yep, Chinese make some really good ribs and even the chicken wings are the best so crispy and tasty! Ribs and fried chicken! The south don't have nothin on the Chinese cooks!
All the other normal American Chinese favorites are here as well. The general chicken, sweet and sour pork, won ton soup and even French fries! There's a Mongolian grill section too and at dinner they have NY steak to grill! Dinner price is almost $10 bucks more, so I'll stick to lunch as the better value.
Pretty happy decision to eat there. Looked at the food before deciding and about 8/10 things looked pretty fresh. This was on a Thursday evening so maybe not the most busy time. At least not very busy when we were there. I imagine weekends to be busier.
This place is pretty big. Could seat many people if needed. Food was good and I think it's cool they have soft serve and regular ice cream.
Mostly pretty typical Asian buffet stuff with a few surprises. The Mei Fun was nice! Thin little rice noodles with a simple and warm flavor.
I might come back if I'm in the area and looking for a buffet again. Sushi wasn't great here but most non sushi buffets that offer it generally meet a low expectation for that.
Solid 4 stars. Service was friendly too! Maybe even more so than most buffets. I'll give them credit there.
5 stars if the sushi were better and more of the food items were fresh. But the price is quite good for what you're getting.
Maybe it's tough for buffets to compete at this price range though because Thunder Valley does a buffet that is bigger and about the same price for dinner on weekdays. Between the two, I'd have to give it to thunder but for the sake of variety I'd probably come here from time to time if I frequented this area a lot more.
UPDATE! The Koi Buffet is now open again! It's all the same great food as before. I just can't see the negative reviews here, cause service is great and the place is clean. The food is all fresh if you get here at a reasonable time. Best time is when they open! Fresh food and nobody has picked over all the food yet! I gotta go back for those wings and ribs!
Closed for now due to the virus thing, but I really can't wait till it opens again! This is the best buffet in the area for a reasonable price. It's under new management so it cleaner than before and the service is perfect. The food is a generous selection of Chinese foods that you don't normally see at most buffets.
What I really like are the fried chicken wings and the ribs! Yeah Chinese do the best Chicken and Ribs! They even have french fries here, just in case you don't want Chinese food. I've always found the food hot and fresh, but do go 1/2 hr before closing and expect all fresh food just for you, it won't happen. Go at opening 11am! I want this place to open again!
