Fun Buffet

Stop in and have the time of your life at the FUN BUFFET !! What could be more fun than filling up numerous plates of your favorite «Americanized» Asian cuisine over and over and over again? As far as Asian feeding troughs go this place is better than most for food selection, price and great sushi spread. The Sushi selection is probably the best for a buffet style in this price range. The sushi is cut in nice bite size portions so you’re not trying to force a burger sized chunk of rolled up rice into your face. I go during work for lunch so it can be busier around that time 12 –1 pm but we’re able to get in and out pretty fast and be right back to work where we fall into a deep food induced coma. They also have a take out, you pay by the LB, not the LB’s you’ll be putting on, they weigh the container !! I give it 4 stars for consistency and value for the money but be realist here folks, its a Chinese Buffet not the Waldorf so go in with the right expectations and leave a full tummy and wallet.

If there is less than one star, I would give to their restaurant. I have been to many Chinese restaurants, but I never see a dirty place like this. All the staff are VERY rude. They make you feel that you are begging them to eat at their restaurant. I will not go there never.

My wife and I were in the area visiting my family over the holidays and my sister wanted a quick place we could go for dinner after attending Christmas Eve church service. Fearing most nearby full-​service restaurants would be booked or closed she thought the Fun Buffet would fill the bill for the eight of us. We got to the restaurant at about 6:45pm and discovered it was fairly full. We were seated promptly and our drink orders were taken. We had no issues with the service, our server was prompt and attentive. I visited the men’s room before eating to wash my hands and found it to be dirty with an overflowing trash can, paper trash on the floor, toilets and urinals that were very stained and a paper towel dispenser that really made you work to get any product out of it. The whole room smelled like urine.
On to the food where we found no fun at the Fun Buffet. The selection was not very large and there was no salad bar to speak of, just some lettuce and very few other items to add to it. There was an hibachi grill where you could put items on a plate and have the chef prepare them for you but the items to choose from were pretty limited compared to what I’ve experienced at other Asian buffets and didn’t look very appealing. I started with some sushi which was not very appetizing so I quickly abandoned it and headed back to the buffet. I bit into an egg roll and grease just dripped out of it onto my plate, it was the same story with the battered chicken pieces (for sweet and sour) and the chicken wings were so dry and tasteless I don’t know how anyone could eat them. The fried fish was so hard it couldn’t be cut with a fork and was difficult to cut with a butter knife, it was absolutely inedible. Most of the items I tried were dried out from sitting on the steam table too long and didn’t get replaced while we were there. Overall the food was pretty bland and boring and not fresh at all.
On to the deserts. There was the typical selection of mediocre Asian buffet items but the big tubs of ice cream looked promising. Unfortunately the two flavors I tried (strawberry and cookies & cream) were not very good. They tasted freezer burnt and had traces of that crystallization you get when ice cream has thawed and refrozen. Needless to say, we will never return to this restaurant on our future visits to the area.

Totally not like it used to be !!! We went there today and all of the food is very different. Bland I used to live the peanut butter chicken, it did not taste like it used to be. We asked the front desk if they got a new cook they said yes, well me and my family are there and I believe we have food poisoning all of my family got sick today with stomach cramps and my friend even threw up. FUN is not FUN anymore!!!

I didn’t think it was actually all that fun. NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE. But the food all seemed like it had been sitting there for hours. maybe days? Probably. The service wasn’t good either. None of the food was like horrible. but some of it did look horrible. I would definitely not recommend this place. If you like cheap Chinese (and random other food) that is old and sitting under a light… than I guess you may like this place. But the buffet is not impressive and I would suggest that you go somewhere else to have FUN

Food used to be better, very limited menu now, I had a habachi just now, it was filled with old sour crab meat, disgusting.

The cashier should not worry about if someone is gay or straight! I went one time with a friend of mine and she asked if I was gay and then said something to a waitress standing there and they both looked at us and started laughing.

Best chinese food I ever had I love this place it can’t be better I have to go there a lot more

After staying away for almost two years, I decided to give it a try to see if there was any improvement. Surprisingly, there has been. I’ve gone 3 – 4 times in the past 2 months, and it was pretty decent. I saw a big difference in the staff in particular. They are so friendly and helpful now. The food I’ve tried has been good and pretty close to the appropriate temperature. It’s still not as good as it was when it first opened, but definitely better than my last review in Feb 2013. I suspect the previous management has been replaced, especially the mean main woman that used to be there. One of the times I visited, there were a couple tables pushed together of law enforcement guys, which I take as a sign things have improved! A little unnerving to eat a foot or two from a dozen guns, but hey, what can you do. LOL (Update – don’t go after 3:30 pm, the price soars! Got $ 4 and a little change from a $ 20!!!)

Food was average at best and service wasn’t great.

Oh, dear… This place is just a train wreck. My husband recently said his district manager and regional manager come here to eat every time they’re in town. I now know my husband works for a couple of crackheads because this place is awful.
First, the buffet does look clean and well attended. Their signage of what is in each dish is awful though. My two favorites were the pizza rolls sign that had shrimp underneath and the fried dumplings sign that had things that clearly resembled an animal’s leg underneath that. Scary. So, we filled our plates…
The sushi tasted like it’d been there a while but there is a guy near there making fresh rolls so who knows. I did like my crab rangoon and wonton soup but that was pretty much it. My husband had a heaping pile of random meat and he described much of it as gross or on the low side of «eh». I ended up with a second plate of just crab rangoon… Their service was attentive… their only saving grace.
Streetsboro is not known for its culinary scene and this place lives up to it.

Nothing says yummy like a full color food service poster advertising crappy pseudo sheet cakes… complete with case count of slices.
Crab, oysters, and peel your own shrimp were all on ice… but the «melted butter» container was just sitting on the counter… not really sure what it was… colored oil? Did not risk it.
Shu Mai was average commercial and the glow in the dark red teriyaki chicken stick was moist… but other than that not much that I would want to even think about eating. Everything else on the 2 hot buffets was either dried out or lost in huge amounts of fried breading.
Hubbie decided to try the «hibachi» station… not really sure if it was a flat top, wok, or some other Mongolian heating contraption because the «chef» took his plate, disappeared into the back, and did not return for 10 min!
There were 7 or 8 large parties and a couple of couples… only the table of Asian speaking people got any attention. the staff jumped each time they pointed out an empty tray of food… the rest of the dining room was lucky to get their plates picked up.
Several other oriental buffet options within an easy drive with more selection, friendlier staff, and identifiable food.

Came around 5pm and the place was near empty. The staff was friendly and the buffet was well stocked and often tended to. Food tasted just like any other buffet I have been to. The buffet price was $ 11.99 with the soda being $ 1.75.

Disappointed. Selection is very limited, and the food was very bland for $ 12 pp. The sushi was questionable, but not awful. I don’t recommend this place if you want a good Chinese buffet. I won’t be returning…

I stopped by to get some buffet to go. price was good for 4.99/lb but the selection was very limited. Especially for the desserts.
The place was dead on a wednesday evening… don’t think I would try it again. The food was just mediocre.

We were pleasantly surprised!
My boyfriend and I had driven past this place multiple times and joked about how one day we would be brave enough to try an oriental buffet in Streetsboro. Well, one day we were.
The restaurant is very clean first of all. I mean, you could’ve eaten your food off of the floor. The staff barely spoke English but were attentive and eager to please. The food choices ranged from pizza to sushi and we sampled a little bit of everything. It was all fresh, hot and flavorful.
For a buffet right off of the turnpike we were surprised at its over all quality and environment. We have been there twice, one of those times being with our children who have hard-​to-​please palates. You will get your money’s-worth and leave with a full stomach.

Wow. Can I just say I’m shocked at the poor reviews this place has gotten?
Now today was the first time I’ve been there, so maybe I just caught it on an exceptionally good day, but here’s the skinny.
Pros:
Very clean
Friendly and attentive servers
Food is constantly restocked
Cheap (like $ 12 per person)
DELICIOUS SUSHI AND SEAFOOD!
Cons:
It was kinda crowded around 6pm Friday
The extra napkins are really pathetic and hard to wipe your hands on
I eat sushi in Quincy, an asian suburb of Boston all the time – so I know what I’m saying when I say I ate this sushi with no fear (looked fresh) and it tasted pretty good. (Not the best, but it’s a buffet… c’mon now). The selling point for me was the delicious seafood: crablegs, oysters, crayfish, shrimp, and more. I loved this place. Second best Chinese buffet I think I’ve ever been to – and i’ve been to A LOT.
I give this place a solid A!
Will be eating here again

Wow. If I could give less than one star, I would.
Nothing about this place is enticing. It’s your run of the mill americanized chinese fare, prepared in an unhealthy and utterly non-​chinese fashion. I’ve travelled to Beijing and Xi’an, and the food I bought from a street cart for 25 cents there was far more appetizing than this place.
People who enjoy this chinese have likely never been west of Indiana or east of Ohio, and probably have never been exposed to legit chinese food. AVOID!

Not a fan. I have been taken here by others who are fans of buffets, as I am admittedly do not seek out buffets of my own volition. Freshness seems to be lacking… the times I have sampled from the fresh fruit area I have often encountered warm, overly-​ripe (or even rotting) pineapple and strawberries. I do appreciate that they offer a stir-​fry option, but unfortunately the chefs cook the fresh vegetables in heaping spoonfuls of butter. My arteries hurt just thinking about this place.
If you are seeking deep fried, greasy meat dishes covered in overly sweet sauces, this buffet may be much more to your liking.

This isn’t the best I’ve had, but it’s the best in the area. A large fruit and salad bar in the middle, fresh stir-​fry in the back, and 3 hot bars and a dessert bar that includes 6 ice-​creams to choose from. They have fresh sushi, but I don’t recommend getting sushi from and all-​you-​can-​eat kinda place.
I’ve always had excellent service here. Fast and friendly with seating and getting drinks. The waitresses get along really well with my boys, which is a plus, and their bathrooms are in working order. Only do lunch here because dinner prices are out of this world! A little hard to get into the place but worth the effort.
