Not all buffets are -- although sometimes people assume they are -- so note if they are or are not. Also, not every All You Can Eat meal is a buffet -- some are served by waiters (a buffet means guests serve themselves). The rule is that if you are served, you are expected to give them a ["tipping" tip]. If you serve yourself (buffet), you are not expected to leave a tip.

I went on a Thursday (2005-10-27) at 2PM and nobody else was there the whole time. They have 11 entrees plus salad and dessert items. The items were unlabelled. I recall sweet & sour soup, string beans, corn-on-the-cob, potstickers, brocolli beef, cashew chicken, sweet & sour pork, chow mein, and white rice. Tea is not served with the meal. Unlike most Chinese restaurants, I did not see any chopsticks anywhere. This place seemed about as generic as one could get for Chinese food, except perhaps for the unusual addition of corn-on-the-cob. The food was oil-soaked, which at first I assumed was due to my late arrival. They cooked fresh food for several of the dishes which were very low, and it was also very greasy, so I think it was more than my arrival time. They did not have any steamed vegetables, snow peas, or similar dishes. I found all the food pretty bland and greasy; nothing seemed fresh. '''Rating=4'''. --["Users/SteveDavison"] - * Before the owners bought this place, I wish someone would have told them how awful this location is. In the absence of Ralph's Supermarket, barely anyone goes here during lunchtime, and as a result, there's an overabundance of food-- food that may have been excellent at one time, but is dried out by 1:00. I got a serious case of the whoa-whoas after eating there. Based solely on the freshness factor, I'm gonna have to give them a '''Rating=4''' -- ["Users/CraigBrozinsky"] -

If you've ever had Pizza Hut's lunch buffet (available at rare locations), the quality and taste of the pizza are quite similar. There's usually a steady supply of pepperoni pizza, Canadian bacon and pineapple pizza, and some sort of supreme or specialty pizza. They occasionally put out a plain cheese pizza (personally, I wish there was more of it). They also put out a kind of Italian bread, a dessert (apple cinnamon) "pizza", and a small salad bar. The dining room is very clean and new-looking, and there is a big-screen TV, usually showing ESPN. '''Rating=8''' --["Users/RoyWright"] - * Despite the hurried and slightly lower-than-usual quality of their buffet pizza, the Round Table Buffet (available at both locations in Woodland, I don't know about Davis) is far superior in quality to Mountain Mikes. The pizza never seems to be replaced until it is finished, therefore you might have to force yourself through some cold or old pieces before you get anything fresh.

During peak lunch hours it can be dangerous trying to get a roll, especially if you are picky or only like popular rolls. On the bright side, you can make special orders (if you can get a word in).

'''Rating=7''' -- ["MikeHeller"] - * I've gone here for lunch quite a bit, and I consider it to be the best buffet in Yolo County. If you go up to the Chefs, I'd suggest asking for shrimp tempura (the super long shrimp they use in the sushi) or large platters of smoked salmon (they will give you platters with about 15 pieces for you and friends if you ask.) '''Rating=8.5''' -- ["PhilBerghuis"] - * I find that the spicy tuna roll here is quite bad and the rice seems slightly over cooked and its not cold. however most items are decent, eventhough they have been sitting out for a while (the soft shell crab is really good here, everything else is mediocare). However, i leave this place bloated, and yet not really satisfied. the sushi in the buffet is mediocare at best, and while they have a lot of variety, it allways seems like nothing looks that great. this place, while decent, is not as good as people say it is. Nobu Hiro has a way better and much fresher sushi buffet. i only go to fujis now if a large group of friends are going and i come along for the company. '''Rating=5.75''' -- ["MattHh"] - * This is some of the better sushi that I've had, especially for being this far inland. I would say it to be on par with Mikuni Sushi in the Sacramento area. They tend to put a little bit too much avocado in some of their rolls for my taste, but I'm not a huge fan of avocado anyways. I would not suggest going to the actual buffet, though. While it is a quaint little sitting with miniature sushi boats going by that you can grab, the quaintness of it is overcome by the bad quality of the sushi. Get a table, and pick what you'd like out of the menu. I suggest the Alaskan roll. '''Rating=7.5''' --["DrewKimzey"]	+ * AYCE sushi, freshly prepared.

For this reason, they try to bring you more food than you order, so that if you leave some sushi rice, you pay fine. Nice way of making money. Apart from that they charged more in our credit card ($2-4 every time). From our approximately 20 visits they chited almost $60 from my credit card. They are well comparable to blood sucking silent parasites. --["MikeHeller"] - * We go to Jusco quite frequently for weekend lunches -- they're affordable, have nice variety, their fish is good (slightly better than Fuju chef, imho), and they don't have the 300 person lines at Fuji chef. I've always appreciated that they bring around extra food -- it lets them offer more variety, given that they have such a tiny restaurant, and are limited to available counterspace. Staff is really really nice, and while they're always full, I've never had to wait for a table. Also, in my experience, most all-you-can-eat sushi restaurants penalize for not eating the rice -- it drives their costs up when you only eat the fish (takes more to fill up) and then all that rice is wasted too...

Nobu Hiro is not too busy, so you shouldnt have to wait for a table, but there are allways several people there. they do have a sign that says that 2 dollars might be charged for left over food, but i do not think this is enforced because they give the bill before your done (its probably to stop people from wasting tons of food, if you left a few rice balls i doubt anything would come of it, just dont leave plates and plates of waste). plus its a dollar cheaper than fuji too.

They have 7 (or so) islands, each serving a different cuisine. Stir-fry, burritos, hamburgers and hotdogs, and a salad bar with fresh-looking spinach, they have it all. Everyone, not just students, can eat here. You will, of course, be surrounded by students. This place is quite noisy; I don't know why they don't consider these things. The nice lady at the cash register gave me an introductory description when I mentioned I hadn't been there before. Unfortunately, she didn't mention that they were closing in one minute... Backpacks are not allowed in (by order of the fire marshall), but they have free, secure, lockers just outside where you can stash your stuff. Take note ["Mondavi Center"]. A wide variety of fresh, tasty, and nutritious food at a competitive price. '''Rating=7''' --["SteveDavison"] +

I went on a Thursday (2005-10-27) at 2PM and nobody else was there the whole time. They have 11 entrees plus salad and dessert items. The items were unlabelled. I recall sweet & sour soup, string beans, corn-on-the-cob, potstickers, brocolli beef, cashew chicken, sweet & sour pork, chow mein, and white rice. Tea is not served with the meal. Unlike most Chinese restaurants, I did not see any chopsticks anywhere. This place seemed about as generic as one could get for Chinese food, except perhaps for the unusual addition of corn-on-the-cob. The food was oil-soaked, which at first I assumed was due to my late arrival. They cooked fresh food for several of the dishes which were very low, and it was also very greasy, so I think it was more than my arrival time. They did not have any steamed vegetables, snow peas, or similar dishes. I found all the food pretty bland and greasy; nothing seemed fresh. '''Rating=4'''. --["SteveDavison"]

Otherwise, it's sort of a nice college hang-out. -- ["SteveDavison"] + * Personally, I LOVE Woodstock's Pizza. The sauce is the best (edit: Have they changed the recipe? The last time I was there, it wasn't as good as I remember it). That said, the slices leave a little to be desired mostly because of the thin toppings problem described above. Give me a good double pepperoni ANY day. For those of us with limited stomach space, try the single slice and a soda deal for $2.75 '''Rating=6''' (AYCE), '''Rating=7''' (single slice option) -- ["Oddball"] + ----- /!\ End of edit conflict -----

- * well i really think there is no question that this is the best sushi buffet in Davis. Nobu Hiro puts Fuji to shame. the sushi is made fresh to order off their buffet menu (this includes about 15 or so types of nigiri sushi, and several rolls like the monkey roll, california roll, spider roll, eel cucumber roll, davis roll(called something else here),bay roll, spicy tuna roll, spicy tuna hand roll, avacado roll, cucmber roll, egg and vegetable roll, tuna roll and much more. the menu also includes miso suop, vegetable temmpura, chicken katsu, fried rice and some noodle dish if you want, but i usually just get the sushi). the spicy tuna roll here is much closer to the ones im used to in LA, although not quite as good, it is quite tasty and definatly beats Fujis spicy tuna roll, which is really just a tuna roll with a lot of hot suace oozing around the edges. and guess what, unlike fujis, the sushi tastes fresh. Nobu Hiro is not too busy, so you shouldnt have to wait for a table, but there are allways several people there. they do have a sign that says that 2 dollars might be charged for left over food, but i do not think this is enforced because they give the bill before your done (its probably to stop people from wasting tons of food, if you left a few rice balls i doubt anything would come of it, just dont leave plates and plates of waste). plus its a dollar cheaper than fuji too.
