Tokyo Buffet Lounge

This Oriental buffet was fantastic ! Everything that you could want on a buffet was there and then some. Nice and clean too. I would highly recommend if your looking for this type of restaurant.

I would have given 4 stars for the food alone. The last few timed in January 2016 We have been to this establishment the service has been horribly rude. First visit we went to check out and had multiple checks. We were all asked in a nasty way to remember to leave her a tip. The second time me and some out of town visitors were talking after our meal. The waitstaff and bus people sat and stared at us until we left. The bus person actually brought their cart over within 10 feet and waited for us to leave the table. This used to be a great place to visit for many years. I will not return. Rude staff

The place is huge. Lots of seating. The sushi is probably one of the better sushi quality of any buffet. They got tons sushi selection. The food is okay but isn’t always fresh only when they are busy. The oysters are really good and the coconut shrimp.

If you are comfortable spending $ 15 — $ 20 to enjoy a wide variety of delicious Chinese food and sushi, then definitely stop by the Tokyo Buffet. Seats are plentiful and it can be a nice treat after watching at movie at the neighboring theater.
Don’t hesitate to try the variety of dim sum options as well as their take on classics such as General Tso’s and Chicken and Broccoli. The food is well maintained and very delicious. I recommend to take the rice on the sushi into account when getting food as it will fill you up.
The desserts are all great — especially the Chinese sesame balls and green tea ice cream. Probably the best buffet in Michigan rivaling Fuji Buffet.

While I would still rather go someplace else for sushi (it is by no means bad, I’ve just had better & at a resturant you can decide exactly what you want), this is by far the best I’ve had at a buffet. It’s really hard to pass up for a $ 10 lunch! My first visit, I tried a bunch of food, which was fun and allowed me to try some new things. Have you ever tried a sesame ball? SO WEIRD, like a sweet ball of glue rolled in seeds. Everything else was so-​so. If I ordered it from a restaurant, I might be a tiny bit disappointed, but again, it’s all-​you-​can-​eat and there are plenty of options. Everything is warm, sanitary, & there were no empty trays. Plus there is Superman ice cream to finish up, yeeeah!
Second visit, I passed all of it up so I could concentrate on the sushi, the highlight of lunch. Seems like I wasn’t the only patron doing so.

The prices are good, the sushi, though not the best, makes up for it in supply and variety. Plus it is a good place to go when you’re in the mood for sushi and you are with friends who are not sushi fans, this place has more than enough variety of other foods that they can dine on. I also like their few dim sum offerings, though I wish they would increase it from the usual 5 or 6 they have. The staff is very nice, also.

Fresh, fresh and fresh. Seafood literally just been caught and served right away. Their sushi is better compared to all buffet sushi places in Michigan. This place will end the Era of Fuji. Ladies and gentleman the new and best seafood buffet has finally arrived to Michigan. Now back to my 15^th plate.

Really bad. We went at 6:30 on a Friday figuring there would be a lot of customers and the food would be fresh. This was not the case. I love dim sum and went straight to that section. The food was dried out and had been clearly sitting out for quite some time. It tasted as bad as it looked. The same was true at the other stations. I could only eat half of what was on my plate because the rest was really awful. The half that I managed to eat was disappointing. We overheard other customers saying that they could have eaten better if they had stayed at home. We agreed. It was a big waste of $ 40 for the two of us. Love Fuji in Madison Heights. Should have gone there.

Came here on labor day and it was 19.99 for dinner buffet (weekend price) and I mostly came for the sushi which was a pretty great choice considering the quantity and quality. I will say that not all the rolls are good but they have a ton of different rolls! The amount of rolls reminds me of a all you can eat sushi place that just happens to have a ton of hot food items as well.
The eel didn’t taste that great and neither did the fried rolls, but most of them were better quality than other Asian sea food buffets that I have been to. The salmon nigiri and salmon sashimi was above average. I think in all there’s about 40 different types of rolls/​sashimi/​nigiri total and it’s impressive how many of each they put out, although perhaps that means they’re sitting out for a longer time. Another plus was they have crab legs for dinner as well as a large assortment of hot items but I was trying to eat mostly sea food this time around! If you’re craving sushi and are looking for quantity over quality, I’d definitely recommend this place!

A very wonderful buffet to eat at i rave all the time at work about Tokyo buffet to my customers (specially if i see them buy sushi) lol. I work as a cashier at a grocery store. The servers are very sweet & nice & caring.

It’s a fact that the Chinese buffet style restaurant is growing in U.S. In the past years.
Many restaurants are open with these style but few survive the demand keeping a good quality of the food.
I’m a lover of this style restaurant and I tried several in the past years.
Some of them are closed now and others are lowering their quality.
As one of my friends knows about my particular taste of spend less but eat more, she recommended me this place.
It is located in a 80’s building and you think is more like an old dine restaurant close to a movies theater.
So you don’t think this is a place where sometimes you need to wait in line to get in.
But what makes this place special. First of all it is a buffet.
But not a simple buffet where crab legs are coming for dinner, even that they have crab legs for dinner and delicious garlic lobsters, they have everything in one place.
If you are a sushi lover like me, they have a complete bar dedicated to sushi.
If you like Mongolian grill, they have it.
A regular, if regular is a good word to express all the dishes, Chinese buffet including complete fish.
They have filled dumplings like the new you see in Japanese movies.
And finally deserts, pies, eight types of ice cream and more.
Food is great but what about service?
The host sometimes is busy with the line and it seems just the host can seat people in their tables.
Even that you can find a line, there is always room for you.
Waitress can be rude sometimes but they are rotating to get everyone attention, so get more sushi meanwhile your drink is coming.
And this is the great part of this place. In other buffet restaurants you feel the pressure from the people to eat fast and leave.
Here there is no pressure at all.
So you can spend your time and let the things fall in the right place to get more.
And what about price? Price will be increased between lunch and dinner.
So be ready to pay more during dinner time.
For lunch the price is average with other buffet restaurants.
For dinner is above but you get more for your money in terms of variety.
But don’t worry, Google is always a helper in this case. If you type «coupons for…» You could find good coupons for this restaurant.
If you are in the area, if you are hungry, this is the place for you.
So no hurries and dig in.

Timing is everything… or so the ancient Greeks say…
So here is my timeline… in the past 2 years I have been there once a month for lunch and for dinner once every other month… grrrr math lol
Good Food at a great price… Fresh sushi, a good variety of different American style Asian foods, easy parking, and a coupon if you google search them :)
Staff is friendly and fast.
I will mention that I like Asian Buffets on occasion, but usually all the smells of the food blend together… this one does not, it is a very nice experience and each food has its own flavor.
Try it and Love it… oh and get the discount I mentioned, but please tip well :)
Thumbs Up !!!

I am rating this against other buffets, not against all restaurants. For a buffet this is really top notch. Things were super plentiful and fresh. I went for a Wednesday midweek visit at dinner (17.99) and a weekend visit just as they were ending lunch. I got lunch prices (12.99) but they put out dinner only items during my late Sunday afternoon visit so it was a win. If we had been charged for dinner I believe they jack it up to 19.99 on the weekend BTW. One visit was empty as hell quiet and the other was a busy summer weekend but both provided food that was hot when it should be and cold when it should be that was refreshed as needed.
The sushi selection is head and shoulders over other Chinese buffet deals. It will not please a sushi snob to be sure though. It is really not supposed to. Think of this as getting a steak at Ruby Tuesday vs going all out at Ruth Chris type comparison. Is the steak at RT decent? Satisfying? Tasty in a pinch? Yeah. Is it ever going to compare to a high end steakhouse? No. This sushi will not awe you but neither will it make you ill or anything. It is pretty damn tasty for what it is actually. Bonus points for being extremely well stocked both quantity and variety on both my visits. I will give the slight nod to Sunday as being a tad better overall though.
My husband is a sushi newbie. He really is not into the good fish at this point, just junked up rolls with cooked shrimp, crab stick, crab salad, veggies, cream cheese and the like. He loves spicy sauce, he uses it on all the sushi. He eats way too much sushi to be an affordable companion at a better sushi restaurant, where we would be throwing away money given his less than discerning palette. He is their target audience. Here he can experiment with it a bit and learn what he likes as well get used to some of the things he hopefully will be learning to like all at a bargathon price point. For now this place works for him well.
Crab legs were the typical buffet deals. Snow, which is not my fave, but hey it’s crab. They did give us crackers upon request to take it on and I am fairly clever with a chopstick as well so it worked out ok. They have frog legs, short ribs, made to order stirfrys plus all the basic Chinese buffet crowd pleasers. You can do noodles here too which I like. I also really enjoyed the steamer baskets, especially the sweet rice cakes, coconut balls and a peach type jelly. I am all for less sweet dessert items. Tons of fresh fruit which is a highlight of a Chinese buffet for me. I just like fruit a lot after stuffing my face.
The setup here is roomy. The attendants are not terribly friendly or efficient but they will do. They do refill and clear as necessary for the most part so I am fine with it. Overall it looks a tad nicer than your usual Chinese buffet place and that works.
We will be back. My parents adore it as does my husband. I can live happily with it now and then. So yeah, we will be back.

I’ve been to this buffet numerous times and I am seldom letdown. While it’s no Fuji Buffet (in Madison Heights), for the area and the price, Tokyo Buffet is hard to beat.
The staff is nice enough. Not super friendly or knowledgable, but they don’t ignore you either. They’re almost like a diner as far as service goes, with maybe a small step up.
It may sound weird, but I’m all about quality chopsticks, and they give you the shit ones here. Still, I’m looking to stuff my pie whole, not paying attention to what I use to stuff it.
The hot tea is fairly weak, but I’m not a huge tea drinker, so it doesn’t bother me as it might someone who is a tea enthusiast. Speaking of enthusiasm, let’s get to the grub.
There’s tons of seafood — spicy shrimp, squid, crab legs, craw fish, oysters and clams. None of it was bad.
There’s also some unique dim sum menu items, along with an extensive sushi offering. I’d pass the typical Asian buffet fair (pizza, garlic bread, baked spinach and cheese), and stick to what they do best… great Asian food with plenty of options.

Really great for seafood eaters! Has some of the high end options from hibachi grill to fresh crab legs, and lobsters. But the sushi the main reason I went for was alright almost every roll had cream cheese in it. Idk if they tried making every roll fancy but cream cheese and sushi to me an awful mix. Makes the sushi too creamy and def something i dont enjoy.
The friend dubblings were amazing though! Oh what else, great noodles and overall food was good can’t complain. Also, the sections were always full which was nice. Some buffets just wait for a dish to be completely finish before restocking it (if thats the right term to use)
Full bar also! Which is nice at a buffet
The staff was fast on picking up the plates after you were done so that was nice, kept the table clean! But at the same time, it felt like they were scouting you to be done so they can pick up the plates. But other than I rather have that then my table full of dirty plates, ya know?
Will come again!

Tokyo buffet is one of those buffets that are a little bit better than the garden variety chinese buffets that are ever so popular. Two things that truly shine here is their dimsum and their sushi selection. They even have sashimi. Plus on the beginning end of the sushi bar is a make your own soba noodle station. Now that is class.
The rest is pretty much same as all the other chinese buffet spots. Hit or miss on the crab legs, but that isn’t what I go to chinese restaurant to. That’s an American invention. It’s like going here and eating pizza or spaghetti. It’s almost a guarantee it would not be delish. I would rather eat the giant snails, the frog legs and the craw fish. Mmmmmm!
Aside from that, the main dining area is hella nice, buffet spread is well laid out, and the staff is always delighted to serve.
Love being here, eat more snails and frog legs! Weeeeee!

I am mixed on my feelings about this place. Yes it does have a dimsum section which is a plus at a buffet location but the food is different quality each time.
This restaurant is located alongside a theatre, I think it was turned into a restaurant from the rundown side of the theatre or something.
The fancy entrance way is very nice and very appropriate for its name. The buffet sections are also very clean and the floors look great. But the dining areas are not as great and some of the booths have rips and whatnot.
Although the bathrooms are nice, it is never clean. There is always at least one toilet that is clogged or out of order and it stinks! I have been there at least 4 times and man, does anyone clean the ladies bathroom?
I remember they had a whole section dedicated to sushi but I am not a fan of their rolls. Often too small and not as fresh. I usually get the individual pieces and leave the rice. Yes I know that’s not the best at a buffet place but their rice was not great. Often falling apart, warm or with absolutely no vinegar!
I will try again maybe down the line and hopefully they clean the bathrooms.

Horrible establishment. The environment is massive, festive and well laid out but that is where the fun ends. Tokyo Buffet has some of the worse buffet food I’ve ever experienced and you’d have to put a gun to my head for me to visit again. I stopped in on a Sunday morning and was blown away by the overall scale of their buffet. After nibbling on a number of different offerings, I was even more flabbergasted at how they could serve so many different types of food yet not have a singular offering that tasted as it should. I understand it’s difficult to do everything well but at least do SOMETHING well. Maybe their ice cream is good?
The soup was cold, the seafood disgusting and the raw chicken they had ready to be cooked mongolian style was turning a crispy brown/​orange color like it had been sitting out since the previous week. How they have not been shut down due to health code violations is beyond me. I left feeling sick to my stomach and like I was robbed of the cash I coughed up to dine there. This is mediocre dining that should be avoided at all cost.

I’d say I go to Tokyo Buffet, on average once every other month or so. It’s not a bad deal and pleases pretty much everyone in the party because there’s a wide variety of food. Not that all of it’s good, but most of it is, and everything is edible. And did I mention their icecream? There’s like 8 different flavors. For a buffet, that’s a lot.
Personally, I’d stay away from the raw sushi, just no telling how long it’s been sitting out there and there are a ton of other places to go for better sushi. Dimsum isn’t the best thing either but there are definitely a couple things there that I take in generous quantities. I’ve never tried their salad bar but their Chinese food bar is pretty good. Go HAM on the king crab legs, and ask the servers for crab leg cracker thingies and they’ll bring it and you can REALLY go HAM: D Just make sure you wash your hands first XD
They also often have a coupon on their website for 10% off which you can print in bulk and just leave one in your wallet. Pretty handy.
It’s a large place so they’re never lacking in space, I’ve never waited before.
If you’re in the area, a total recommend.

This place is comparable to Fuji Buffet in Madison Heights and about $ 4 less for the dinner buffet at $ 17/​person.
Nice décor, friendly owner and servers, food is of buffet quality.
We were having trouble getting crab legs because people kept taking all of them as soon as they came out, so the BF asked our server if she could bring some from the kitchen. We didn’t really expect her to do that, but she did come over right away when the crab legs came out to tell us. Yay crab legs!
I also specifically wanted chicken feet, and there was very little left, so the BF asked the owner for fresh chicken feet, and ta-​da the next time we went up, he told us there was fresh chicken feet.
The sushi is of buffet quality, so go for the rolls instead of nigiri. I’m spoiled by fresh sushi in California, and the fish here was not very fresh, but it’s what you expect from a buffet.
Overall, we had a good time! As you can tell, the owner and servers were very accommodating to our requests, and they really wanted to make us happy.
