10. New China Buffet

Reviewed By Charla
We were hungry and this buffet place was convenient, so despite the sort of unkempt exterior we were in a generally optimistic "how bad could it be?" frame of mind when we stepped into the lobby of the New China Buffet. Almost immediately, we noticed a large sign explaining the pricing structure: the buffet was $X, but if you wanted *some* snow crab legs, it was $X+ and if you wanted *all* snow crab legs it was $X++. (Although that clarification may have been necessary to keep the business solvent, it wasn't much of a way to set the tone.) Looking around, it appeared that we'd be expected to pay our $X per person for the buffet before we'd be able to see what they were serving [and whether it appeared fresh or not]. So, considering that there was nobody in the lobby we could talk to about it, and given the condition of the outside of the restaurant, and the aromas emanating from the serving area, and the sign about the $XXX for the snow crab, we decided it wasn't even worth our $X to stick around. Granted, since we never actually saw the food, maybe we made a big mistake. If so, I apologize. Fix up the exterior and maybe we'll give it a second chance next time we're in the area.

This shop is somewhat hidden off the road. But it's worth looking for.They've been in business since 1999. 20 years. Not too shabby.They operate mostly from word of mouth. And they do get busy. Check it out. A 12-ounce bottle of Tsing Tao beer is only...get this...$3.25. Dudes, you know that's a killer price for Imported beer.The steamed dumplings have lettuce leaves underneath. Nice little surprise. Dip them in the dumpling sauce. Yum.Stop on in.

Yes this was our first time visiting but I was shocked that they put teriyaki sauce on everything. I mean they put it on my shrimp, chicken and vegies. I did not order teriyaki anything. I ordered hibachi chicken and shrimp.(Maybe I should have read the small print on the menu) I saw teriyaki shrimp on the menu but that is not what I ordered. So if you prefer to taste the meat and vegies instead of a sauce, ask them to leave the teriyaki off up front. --- Now once they realized I was not happy about them saucing up my food, they did everything in their power to make me happy. Kudos!! We enjoyed the meal and will most likely be back. Thank you.

6. Taki Japanese Restaurant

We like Taki, even with the quirkiness.We always eat in the dining area and never go into the entertainment side, where the grill shows are loud (I guess, fun, for those who like that sort of thing).The quirky must be because of staff variety. Japanese cuisine is, at least, an art form. With common sushi rolls (not a Japanese dish, btw) the art is not so prevalent.The sashimi plates invite chefs' creativity. Each one builds a landscape from a variety of raw fish, a variety of vegetables, and accents of pickled ginger and wasabi.Of late I order the Eel Don. The most four most-recent presentations were radically different. Each one was pleasant for my eye and palate, but none looked alike.Most recently, the eel pieces were arranged around the bowl (don), each on a cucumber slice. I learned something. In the future I will say, "No cucumber, please."The miso and/or clear soups are better than average.The simple salad (not a Japanese dish) with ginger dressing is so-so.We usually have an order of gyoza, always good, whether fried or steamed.Our biggest issue is with inconsistent service. It is not unusual for us to order three or four items and, then, have to wait for one until the other three are almost gone.

In Macon, Georgia, for a conference, we were looking for a good lunch option that was not your typical fast food fare. Coming upon Genghis Grill, we though, "what a great concept"! We had 90 minutes to eat lunch and change clothes for the conference. On a Friday, during the lunch rush, there was one hostess/waitress, one guy at the grill, and a runner. People were waiting in line to be seated, waiting to pay, and and many walked out without being served. To be very clear, the three employees were running themselves to death doing their best to keep up but it was not possible. Clearly, they needed help. I have no idea what happened that day, if some people scheduled didn't show up, or if the schedule was just not done appropriately, but they desperately needed help. Where was the manager?????Only two of us, we both ordered at the same time. My colleague received her food in a timely manner. I waited....and waited...and waited....she was finished with hers when my bowl was brought to the table 18 minutes after hers. My chicken was burned BLACK. Someone had left it on the grill until it was burned up. Please see the photo attached. Bottom line, this pace has issues, BIG issues. Don't waste your time here, I ended up at a fast food joint later that afternoon.Karenfan, we work hard to provide a fantastic experience to everyone. It's discouraging to see that you had a negative experience. Please reach out to us at [email protected] so we may assist you in moving forward towards a resolution.

Hidden in an alley, this is a great place! All the expected features, but exceeds with food prep and quality. We had tasty cheese rolls up front, then the best Egg drop soup EVER, delicious orange chicken, awesome bata yaki shrimp in butter and garlic, and nice lemon chicken, with marvelous wines. The meal exceeded our high expectations. Going again!

I normally get a small bowl of pho here, the bowls are very large and a small bowl is really enough for two to share. The bbq spring rolls are also really good. The owners are always nice and friendly and remember me. It's a real gem in Macon.
