    I haven’t eaten in this restaurant in 3 month do to work and after all this time, I decided to treat my kids and myself. Well food was horrible sushi was dried food for kids was dried it seem like it has been seating their for few hours. I spoke to the manager and let him know that food seems to be different and he said well check your taste buds it might of change because we use the same ingredients every day. Kids used to love coming to Tepeyaki and they didn’t even bother eating their food and ask if they could get something else from a different restaurant. I can’t believe how disrespectful was that manager.

    Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - so many items to choose from! Ranging from sushi bar, BBQ, stir fry, and some Mexican food, there’s something for everyone. Buffets are not the best food in terms of quality and flavor but it was enjoyable overall and we would definitely do again if we’re in the area. Notable items: some of the nigiri (rice with raw fish) is actually great in that it tastes fairly fresh and the ratio is reasonable. We highly enjoyed the fried squid and octopus though the latter was a bit sweet depending what part of the batch you got. The mussels, clams, and crawfish were all pretty good though it does get a bit salty. The pork and beef ribs had decent cook though the sauce was a bit sweet. Ambience: 4/5 - a bit older or trafficked restaurant so some things are fairly worn. The tables are clean and the keep the food counters fairly clean as well! The bathroom is a bit icky but understandable for the amount of people passing through. A large fish pond in front with coins and bills thrown in. A few TVs with Spanish channels on Service: 5/5 - quick and responsive. We never had more than one or two plates on the table before they come by to pick it up Value for price: 5/5 - $12.99 for weekday lunch. It’s a great price for decent food and lots of variety!

    I was told about this place from guys at work, so I decided to give it a whirl! There is ample, ample parking here. Upon entering to the right is a counter with a line to pay for your meal and to receive a ticket. Once that's done, walk left to another counter, present your ticket, and they will then seat you. Once seated, you can go straight to the buffet. This buffet is incredible. There is, pork chops, ribs, all kinds of Chinese dishes, sushi, fruit, steak, etc. If you leave here hungry, it's your own fault. The only thing I had a problem with was the waitress, I finally had to just grab the first one by to get something to drink and I was asked only once towards the end of my meal if I needed anything, I had ram very low on drink and by then I chose to leave. Waitresses politely walk up, and all the patron of they need a drink refill when you see it's less than half or sooner. This place is a madhouse at lunch and it's extremely loud in the inside. The water fountain is pretty cool and lots to eat! I give it a thumbs and a half!

    This place is definitely worth the hype. I came from California and the Chinese food tasted different if that is what you are use to but it is still a good flavor. My favorite is the Mexican food section. It has beans, rice, jalapeño poppers, menudo, a nacho bar, and salsa bar. Definitely worth the visit!

    Wow so much variety, despite being busy, food trays never empty. Can't believe the small fish eggs on sushi, I have never seen that on a buffet. Everything tasted great. The halogram was very unique. I would highly recommend 😊

    🤮seriously this place stays open because old fat people keep going there. The sushi is cute but taste bad. The food is rubbery. Do not waste your money or time.

    Where should I start? This is a place when you go and enjoy many types of food! Some times good some times bad! Depend of the day you go! Always is so crowded!! They have so many options of food and flavors!! The only thing they need to fix is the dessert and the saladas! Need to be little better like the hot food! But in general is a place when you can enjoy and have a nice time! Even with friends and alone! Remember the sushi bar is so good!

    First of all, I’m not at all a buffet guy, I gag at the thought of it. But with 2 small children and the price point and selection and the restaurant ensuring things stay fresh and filled, I’m thoroughly impressed. I know I’m losing my money by getting filled off of sushi, but it’s that good and hand rolled right there, with the caviar and all that. Try it I promise you’ll go back.

    It was my first time there with my nephew. Had suggested it to me for a while. The food was really good and I enjoyed the variety you can get from. Not only did it taste good, but very colorful display of sushi. Not a fan, but looked eye appealing. Spacious enough to enjoy your visit without bumping too much into people.

    Excellent. Probably one of the largest buffet restaurants in town. Tons of sushi, of course any Chinese food imaginable. They have Mexican food (menudo), steaks, soups, even pizza. A very large variety, all delicious. A little pricey, $47 for two adults.

    When we visit El Paso we usually try to eat here. The amount of food available is incredible. There is really something for everyone, be it Asian, Mexican, American or sushi. You can also get some really good food made at the grill. They have a huge sushi bar with a lot of different options. Sometimes there is a long line all the way out of the restaurant.

    When it comes to buffets this one is in my top 5. Great atmosphere, good selection of food. Always saw them bringing out fresh product. Not too packed so we didn’t have to wait for anything. An all around good experience, I’d definitely make another trip.

    If you're hungry you can get pretty much anything you want. The bread rolls are awesome. They have bread rolls with some kind of sweet cream cheese or something. Those are really good too if you want to eat something sweet. Get ready to pay about 20 bucks per person.

  • 5/5 Mikaela P. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious food with a great variety! Went for lunch and it was a good price for the quality and quantity of food we were able to choose from. It wasn't the freshest food compared to a restaurant that specializes in it (I.e. a sushi restaurant) but the small drop in quality in comparison to the very large drop in price, it more than makes up for it. I started off with a variety of sushi and some miso soup. Then I tried some of their chicken dishes and bao buns. Finally, I finished off with some fruit jelly (the mango was my favorite) and a bread roll with cream cheese in the middle. All in all a great first try and I will definitely be returning to sample more.

    I should have put attention to the sign (pun intended) As we open the door, there's a city ordinances sign which is just a picture of someone else's sign. Ultimate cheapskate. I jokingly told my wife I don't want to come in here if they don't want to pay for a sign, I hate to see what other money saving things they do with their food. Furthermore, taste was good won't lie but food has soo much msg or artificial fillers its not even discreet. With an empty stomach, my stomach was bloated with half a plate (which is uncommon). Only reason why I'm writing a review is because I'm currently so bloated I am considering calling it an early day. Restrooms are gross, but staff is friendly. We won't be coming back for a while till I forget why I stop coming here.. don't recommend

    Great place to get yourself some good seafood! I love this place! Great choices include shrimp, squid, clams, and crab! You can also enjoy non-seafood. Great place!

    This has got to be one the best buffet I've ever been to ever! The atmosphere is phenomenal, and beautiful. The amount of food selection they have on hand is wonderfully overwhelming. I wanted to try so many things but became stuffed before I could, which automatically means I'll be coming back for more!

    So happy i found a place that serves all-you-can-eat crab legs on the weekend! They could use a bit more seasoning for flavor. The biggest issue is, there never seems to be enough! People wait in a line at the buffet for more crab legs to be brought out.

  • 1/5 Jose G. 2 years ago on Google
    A clear example of why buffet eating is now stale and unappealing. We came for dinner. The islands were plated with generous portions of petrified remains of “edible?” matter. Other Bain Maries offered unknown solids of fish, chicken, or whatever looks gray after floating on pungent broth for what probably has been 8 hours. Was our mistake coming at 7:30 pm? Or was it plainly coming? We will never know. I prefer to spend 20 dollars at Texas Roadhouse for steak, Sunny’s for sushi, or any other place that is not buffet. My disappointment is probably my nostalgic memories of going to 90s style Hometown Buffet or Golden Corral. I know they weren’t good but at least they satisfied cravings of just about anything. And they weren’t dirtier than an after lunch elementary cafeteria. PS: I did have 2 good pieces of paper-thin tuna nigiri.

  • 3/5 Ahsan H. 2 years ago on Google
    Foods are on average. Only issue is now well cleaned. Floor is too much dirty. But overall cheap buffet with A huge collection variety of food from different culture.

  • 2/5 Eddie V. 5 months ago on Google
    Maybe today was not a good day to eat there. The food was not good at all. Food had been sitting out for a while, so it was dry. Not much in part of flavor or seasoning today. I felt bad leaving most of the food untouched just because it didn't taste good. I have gone before and my experience was totally different than today's. They could have just had a bad day, but it will be a while before I go back again.

    Great buffet. Maybe a tad overpriced, but good cultural food isn't short in that restaurant. Staff keeps an eye out on you with the crab legs... Not the most comfortable atmosphere but definitely great sushi!

  • 5/5 T B. 3 years ago on Google
    buffet food at this place - very good. Service is always nice even when they have a full house. The service was very welcoming and observant. This place has a good feel to it. Reminds me of a restaurant in Philadelphia that I enjoyed.

    Loved it, stopped here coming back from Cali. Food was really good or maybe we were just hella hungry lol...nah it was good especially the crab legs.

  • 4/5 Alberto A. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place to eat but do not go 1.30 hours before closing. They do not fill any of the food trays, they turned off some of the food heaters early, they let the food run out and do not fill again. So you dont get to eat all of their selection and you still pay full price. I will still give them 4 stars.

  • 5/5 Ismael V. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 damon b. 4 years ago on Google
    Boy oh boy.. if you're thinking that this is a regular, run of the mill buffet place... You're in for quite the pleasant surprise. First of all..the place is HUGE. But it is well staffed with polite hostesses, waitstaff and the cooks are spot on. Oh and the steaks didn't even need a knife to cut. There's these dinner rolls that absolutely melt in your mouth. Filled with like cheesecake. UNBELIEVABLE how good they were!!!! Very impressive place.

  • 4/5 An B. 4 years ago on Google
    For 2 adults and 1 child (toddler), 3 drinks, about $45. Cost is not so bad considering it's a buffet. I usually enjoy their crab legs most, especially when they're not overcooked and mushy. Which I think happens because they ration them & set them out about every 20-30 minutes. A line forms usually about 15 to 20 minutes before a new batch is out and they are usually done within the first 5 minutes or first five people on line, lol. They also do a great job on their frog legs, which are perfectly fried and seasoned with lemon pepper flavor. My family enjoys the variety and the staff's hospitality! You can even find foods for a picky toddler, which is a win in my book!!!
