Big Apple Buffet - SAINT PETERSBURG

An early dinner at 5:30. After visiting this restaurant for years, I had expected the same. I had a good experience in the past. The parking lot showed construction in progress with scaffolding over the walkway. The restaurant was open, but very quiet. The buffet selection was rather disappointing. The big surprise was that although we arrived early for dinner, the selection looked like they had been there for hours. Saddest Sushi selection. I had trouble finding something to eat. Everything looked old. All bread products were filled with beet for salad. The hibachi section looked closed. No one was there to cook. The highlight of the evening was the waitress. Your prompt service to delete the table has been estimated. Wouldn't recommend. I'm sorry. I really hoped and expected better.

If you pay for everything you can eat, Hibachi is included in the price, then tap the cook when you take out, they charge you extra for Hibachi, much more per lbs, this is the only buffet I do it, open your food container and thoroughly inspect, soon they will stir it with spoon to check what is under the leaf salad. The food went down in this place, the greed and lack of culture is not appetizing when I see how cashiers count my sushi with his finger, I don't know, weep or laugh, so pathetic. Definitely the worse in the area.

I was happy with the whole season. Compared to other Chinese buffets, this restaurant was not overly seasoned. I want to eat it every week! But there's a problem. I want you to change the color of the lighting in the store.

STAY AWAY!!! went today, a few minutes after 4:00. Each food container was close to empty, cold and tasted as if it was omitted for HOURS. Egg rolls are soggy, spring rolls are soggy, the 3 chicken wings were black as they were cooked 5x. The crab legs were on ice. He broke one up and it was mush and black slime inside, told them and they just said his other crab? NO, crab is not black and slim inside, if you need too long on the heat floor, then put it on ice. The bowl n eat shrimps where as hard and dry as ever and left a taste in my mouth that took hours to go away. They had about 19 old dried spices available. It was the WORSE FOOD I have in my life. My 8 months old could ate EVERYTHING because they were all so muddy. I'll call the health department tomorrow morning. I feel sick. Check out the latest 20 reviews and filter them up to date. This place should be switched off and out of business!!!!!! Look at the pictures I took. They gave me a $5 discount because I said crab should not be muddy and black after they wouldn't say what kind of crab it is. We are in Florida, what crabs do you eat, this is muddy, black, slim and on ice???????? My suggestion is to eat taco bell from the garbage before you ever foot in this place.

Got there a little after 4pm. The sushi selection was very limited and beyond dry. The spring rolls were nothing but mush. I tried a fried dumpling and I couldn't even bite through it. Egg rolls were also hard as a rock. Everything there had been sitting out since noon it looked like. After the first few bites I wanted to walk out but figured you get what you pay for( or so I thought) I figured it was 7-10 dollars each but no, it was $15 each! The waitress stood behind me the whole time talking on her air pods( headphones). I got one refill and it came back wrong. By far the worst dinning experience I've had in a long time. For the same price you can go to umami and get fresh, made to order food. I took a friend and feel so embarrassed I even recommend it. I WILL NOT BE BACK.
