Kirin Ii Japanese Seafood Buffet

Second time we visited. We were seated near the sushi bar so it is a bit cramped given the seating arrangement and dinner time. There was no menu at the table so we all assumed any drink aside from water cost extra. The waitress was reasonably good with clearing out dirty plates so we managed through our dinner at the small table. We were offered ice cream twice but since we didn't see it out in the open, we again assumed it would cost extra. We only learnt later dinner comes with ice cream. A pity but I understand the decision to not leave that item out in the open. Definitely recommended the red bean soup and beef broth, just not the udon.

This buffet has always been my favorite. The waiters are very attentive. You can request ice cream from them. The lighting was a bit dim, but that is my only complaint. The food is always top-notch— even the generic buffet coffee cake. The food is always a at a good temperature and the prices are reasonable for what you can get.

The food line is very good. I was surprised at sashimi on the sushi line. I didn't ask but suspect they will make other sushi and possibly hand rolls. The snow crab legs were excellent. They are cold on the salad bar. I didn't ask if they will heat them but I was offered melted butter. Also grilled quail was available one time. Overall the variety and quality will have me returning. The cost is comparable to similar restaurants except I found the special items here and not other places.

Our favorite spot for sushi and sashimi! So fresh, it's like taking a trip to Japan! Staff are amazing, atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Very clean. All buffet options are delicious, there's something for everyone. Definitely go on a holiday, the sushi and sashimi options are incredible (different variety from normal days).

All I can say is wow! The food was delicious. We had blue crab, snow crab, boiled shrimp, oysters on the half shell, crawfish, muscles, fried calamari, shrimp tempura, quail, duck, baked oysters with a delicious sauce, many types of sushi that we had never seen before each with their own sauce. There were barbecue ribs and short ribs that fell off the bone they were so tender. We went on a Saturday night. I think the baked oysters are only on Saturday night. The dinner buffet opens at 5:30 p.m. the service was great, and the dessert bar was very tempting. All for $30 per person.

Only place I will ever eat a “Sushi buffet” ! This place has real quality sushi and it’s fresh. The sushi chefs are behind the sushi bar and will make you hand rolls upon request. The bonus part of Kirin is there is also a full Japanese food buffet here that is great. Been here forever and the same ladies run this restaurant. ******* Closed TUESDAYS *******
