100's seafood grill buffet

It’s been over a year since we dine in so we decided to have our dinner here since we are in the area. Nothing change besides the price which is understandable. Abundant dishes, looks and taste fresh, well seasoned and tender meats (prime rib/ peppered beef). Cajun boiled Crawfish, clams and shrimp were always good. Had to go for my second plate. Enjoyed their DIY Poke bowl as usual. Also satisfied with their assorted sushi rolls. They have military discount with valid ID for active duty and veteran like myself. No issues with parking since we arrived right before opening. Staff were courteous and attentive. Highly recommended if you are looking for an Asian style buffet. It’s worth paying $43.99 (minus discount) with the options and quality of food they served.

Arrived here today, Sunday before they opened. There was plenty of parking at that time. There were already people lined up. But was seated right away. Crab legs were pretty good this time. Sweet & Not too salty. The rest of the dishes we tried were pretty decent for a buffet. 2 less star because my friend got sick soon after and started throwing up.

This buffet has SO many dishes I love it. Like all kinds of sashimi - especially the all-you-can-eat salmon! And tons of seafood: king crab legs,my favorite crayfish - all unlimited! And if you like Peking duck,you MUST try theirs! Best of all: they have sea urchin (uni)! Just ask the staff at the sushi station - it's a secret menu item!They'll also make fresh tuna hand roll if you ask. Just tell the staff what you want! Now onto the bad part, drinks/soda is not free, however the staff sneakily ask if you want drinks assuming they are free with the buffet. The secret items are only once per visit to the buffet, it doesn’t clearly state that but it is.

I think that this seafood buffet is one of the best. Great sushi section, same with the seafood and main course section. The is fresh and cooked just right, soft and tasty. You can't go wrong eating here. Too many items to eat in one seating!

Las Vegas style seafood buffet in San Diego. Very good everything. S&P wings crab legs, sushi roll sashimi, soups, ice cream, cookies, salads Galore. Grille teppanyaki style items absolutely delicious.

I have to say that this place is the best buffet I have been to in SD so far. Sushi was good and so were the many choices of seafood and entrees. They have a huge salad bar as well and a good size desert bar, but I was not a real big fan of the deserts. But thats just me. I was impressed they did attempt a creme brulee, which was decent and the best desert of all in my opinion. They also have an area where you chose you base and proteins for them to cook fresh. Their service is pretty on point. Someone is always coming to pick up plates. I would definitely come back and bring friends and family.

This is a great buffet for sushi and poke lovers, they have different Asian dishes, delicious meat cuts, loved their clam chowder, their sushi bar is wow yummm!! Customer service is also top, every one is polite and you don't feel rushed, you can actually enjoy this buffet, a new favorite!!

All you can eat. They had a lot of options including crab, noodles, cooked salmon, oysters, salads, fruits, desserts and more. I liked the sushi best, the rest was decent.

Came here Sunday afternoon expecting a long wait, but surprisingly upon entry, we were immediately greeted & seated. Highly recommend coming here if you like seafood, especially snow crab legs (we definitely got our moneys worth as this is what we mostly ate!) In addition to the usual Asian buffet offerings like soup, fried rice, fried shrimp and noodles, they also offer sushi (sashimi, cut rolls and even made to order hand rolls), build your own poke bowls, a salad bar and desserts. Employees are quick and attentive, clearing dishes and refilling drinks. Military/veterans as well as seniors over 60 get a discount of 10%. They also have the option of food to go for $10.99/lb and the crab legs for $18.99/lb.

This buffet came highly recommended from someone I no longer believe is a good judge of restaurants, haha. Yes, the place is big, and yes, there are a lot of good options. But are the food options high quality and delicious? That's where I pause. When we first attacked the buffet tables, I went straight to the sushi bar, as one does. I went knowing that the sushi wasn't going to be restaurant-quality - buffets like this can never seem to get the sushi rice down to the right consistency - but I wanted to believe that the rice would be the only thing we'd talk about. Unfortunate that it wasn't. The sushi wasn't terrible, but a lot of the pieces we picked up were either a bit too sloppily made or more-than-a-bit too bland. The fresh seafood was by far the star of the day, for me. On my next round, I went right to the cold bar, filling up on shrimp, crab claws, oysters and mussels. Everything was fresh and briny and easy to slurp or crack or spoon. The hot items were a total bomb. I tried their orange chicken, veggie egg rolls, tempura chicken wings, garlic green beans and honey walnut shrimp. Everything tasted and felt like it'd been sitting out under the warmers for hours, even though I was standing at the bar when some of the things were refilled from the back. The eg rolls and orange chicken weren't crunchy, the walnut shrimp lacked flavor and the garlic green beans were too wilty and missing garlic to qualify as garlic green beans. The chicken wing should have had an excellent crunch and juicy insides, but alas, no. My husband did go back for the hot foods, though he said he did it more to get our money's worth than for the flavor (his favorite hot item were the sesame balls.) He brought me back a pork bao on his final trip; the dough was tough and the inside was dry. And because we're gluttons - both for food and for punishment - we grabbed a few items from their dessert area. I do not recommend this, the cakes were dry, the cookies were hard as a rock and it seemed they skimped on the cheese part of their cheesecakes. There are better buffets out there, in my opinion. I don't think we'll be back.

October 9, 2025 Let's start off by saying I was here yesterday for lobster night -- and honestly, I left disappointed. They advertise unlimited lobster, but it only comes out every 15 minutes, so you're standing in line most of the time just hoping to get one. For $61 per person, it's totally not worth it. I got impatient waiting in line and felt like I couldn't even enjoy my meal. The rest of the food was just okay -- nothing special. The desserts were pretty mediocre too. The only real positives were that parking was easy and the staff was friendly, but that wasn't enough to make up for the experience. Overall, I wouldn't go back. Save your money and try somewhere else if you're looking for a true seafood buffet experience. I did try this place years ago during the pandemic and it was so good!

$118 for 2 people dinner after tax and 15% tip. It's worth going here once to try but for the price I wouldn't come back. Food is decent but not as much variety compared to other seafood buffets I've been to. Snow crab legs were definitely the highlight. They have a lot of seasonings, melted butter, and lemon to go with it. The salmon sashimi is the only fish worth eating, everything else tasted fake/not as fresh. I enjoyed the baked scallop but it was basically just cheese and potato. The raw oysters tasted bad, we had to spit them out after the first chew. Thankfully we did not get any food poisoning. Dessert bar is okay, wish the ice cream was soft serve instead of watered down gelato. Overall, this place is good if your main craving is for crab. Anything else you're better off going elsewhere.

I had such a fun time here, because this buffet is huuuge. Not huge like a casino's but it says a lot since this isn't a casino buffet. As I kept walking down the aisle, the more I was impressed by the options they offered. I hit the sushi buffet first. They have yellowtail sashimi!!! That's such a big bonus, cuz not a lot of places offer yellowtail. The sushi rolls were heckin' huge, like, filled to the brim with fillings (and it's not all rice!!) The nigiri were pretty and the cuts were on point. And the rice was seasoned too! I could prob sit and eat all the oysters and crawfish there all day, if only they offered more sauces to pair them with because they were a bit bland and they only had packets of hot sauce to accompany them with. My husband loves crab but turned it down once he saw they were only served cold. However, he was impressed by the Chinese food options, as he went straight for the dim sum/roasted duck/soups. Personally found the Chinese buffet a little lacking so I skipped most of it and just went straight for the sushi/seafood. The servers were nice and quick, but the only complaint I have of the place is that it reeked. It was quite pungent, it kind of smelled like they spilt soy sauce over the floors and didn't clean up. Not a bad thing, it's just not a very pleasant smell. Would come here again if we had a much bigger party!

Went on a Friday night not long after opening for dinner. Very nice place. Huge selection of food. Staff were always there to take used plates which was great. Sushi was fresh and the food was hot. I've been here before and the crab tonight was so-so. No big deal I guess but the rest of my options were good. Definitely worth a visit.

Delicious!!!! I'm so mad at myself for not trying this buffet sooner! The set up was nice, the decor and the seating areas. You will have to check in with them and tell them how many guests are attending. If they're not busy, they will walk you right in but otherwise you'll be given a pager for when the table is ready for you. I had seven people with me, the wait was not too bad for Lobster Thursday. Ten minutes wait, give or take. The food was really good, you have options to purchase alcoholic drinks (no hard liquor serve) or Pepsi products. So many variety of dishes from American to Asian and lots of desserts to choose from! Lobster Thursdays is a bit pricier than normal days. One lobster per person when you're in line and the line can be long. I believe lobster comes out every ten to fifteen minutes. I would say that day was pretty busy (5/8/25). Super attentive and friendly staff. FYI - they have a birthday special. Free lunch/dinner for birthday person with proof of ID and with more than 6 guests. They also have senior discounts available.

This place was extremely busy on a Sunday morning. However, even with the long estimated wait time, it wasn't too long. They give you a pager while you wait. Not sure what the weekday lunch prices are but weekends are charged as dinner prices all day. Drinks are an additional charge. The bill is placed on the table once you are seated and you can pay to the server at the end. Adult: $43.99 Child: $2.75 per year ($2.75 × # years old = total) There were plenty of food selections ranging from Japanese (sushi, rolls), Chinese (dim sim, stir fries), American (wings, prime rib), seafood (hot and cold), and more. You may have to follow the flow of lines when there are too many people at the stations. Overall, the food were ok. The flavors didn't stand out to me over other buffets I've had in the past. Buffets are nice because of the variety of food that's offered. So there should be something for everyone. Service was great, though. They're very efficient. Also, considering how busy they were, the place was still clean. Well, minus the restroom.

This buffet offers a solid dining experience, though it didn't wow me the way some friends have suggested. We arrived right at opening on a Friday evening and were seated quickly, but by the time we left an hour later the place was filling up, so it makes sense they offer an online waitlist. Since dinner had just started, everything looked fresh and nicely presented. The sushi selection was impressive, especially the sashimi, which went beyond the usual salmon and imitation crab you see at many seafood buffets. On the other hand, the crab legs and shrimp were watery and needed a heavy hand with lemon and salt to have much flavor. The dumplings I tried weren't worth finishing, but my son's teppanyaki was excellent. The steak in it was cooked perfectly and had great seasoning. Desserts were average, though there were plenty to choose from. I have to commend them on the ambiance. The interior is clean, modern, and well-lit, and even has a cool koi pond in the center that adds a unique touch. Overall, it's a good option if you're looking for variety in a pleasant setting, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way for again.

My second attempt to visit this buffet with group of friends, after almost 1 years. Food is the same poor quality seafood and has not improved from my last review They added a secret sushi menu that can be ordered at the sushi station. They don't show whats on the menu but those that know, know there are uni and hand rolls. It's deceptive because its only once per entire visit and does not state clearly on the station causing customers to all ask the 2nd round. Waitress asked if we wanted soda without telling us this is extra. I have been to many buffets and this is usually included but they dont make an effort to tell you and expect us to ask. There are plenty of food options in SD so I dont recommend this place.

I saw my yelp friends posted 100's seafood grill buffet restaurant in SD offers a wide variety of seafood, including crab legs, lobster, and sushi, as other dishes like prime rib and Mongolian food very inviting so I like to try it. Pricing and food : $43.99 per person on lunch time weekend. They have baked salmon and mussels with that typical cheese sauce, stuffed crabs, fried shrimp, Peking duck . The grilled steak was also surprisingly good, king crab legs, and some other seafood creations in their seafood department but I don't see any lobster at this time I was there Crab legs were pretty good this time. Not too salty. The rest of the dishes we tried were decent for a buffet. There is plenty of sushi to pick from, and almost everything is labeled by name but I'm not interested with sushi in the buffet, I'm here for the seafood . For their signature dessert they have someone serve you scoops of gelato flavors that you can pick from, but if that's not up your alley they have loads of cheesecake, other cakes, cookies, and some type of creme brulee for sweets. Drinks/soda is not free . The restaurant was clean and well-stocked buffet. Friendly service. There was plenty of parking at that time.

100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) offered unlimited Snow Crab Legs, Prime Rib, Gelato, and many other tasty options. I left happy and full. Adult Dinner Price is $43.99. The Kid Price is $2.75 multiplied by age. And Seniors get 10% off meals. All Customers are offered a maximum eating time of 100 minutes. In addition, I will attach the menu and discount options. 100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) offers very competitive prices. As mentioned, I thoroughly enjoyed the food. Although some food options were lackluster and unappetizing, the tasty options are numerous. 100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) is bustling with many happy customers. [Tasty Options] The Snow Crab Legs are fresh, sweet, plump, and messy. The Shrimp are fresh, chilled, and plump. The Mussels are fresh, lightly sweetened with sauce, and thick. The Prime Rib is strongly seasoned, buttery, and juicy; some cuts are tough, but most Prime Rib slices are tender. The Coconut Shrimp are sweet and big; its coconut flavor shines brightly. The Coconut Gelato is smooth, refreshing with notable coconut highlights. The Pineapple Gelato is vibrant, soft with strong pineapple flavor. [Not Tasty Options] The Seafood Pasta with Alfredo Sauce tasted watery with weak cheese flavor; it came with rubbery, unappetizing shrimps. The Shrimp Tempura tasted like an off-putting rice cake crust; the shrimp is big, but its breading was funky. The "Fried Crab" is unappetizing; it tastes like mushy imitation crab stuffed with vegetables. The Pork and Shrimp Shumai is gross; it tastes gloopy, oozy, and old. The Shrimp Dumpling is wrapped well, but its shrimp is small while being filled with squishy stuffing paste. The Dragon Roll is wet, cold, and mushy. And the Green Tea Gelato is slushy with a very weak flavor. [Staff] Staff works very hard!!! I am extremely impressed. The location is very busy, and cracking open Crab Legs becomes extremely messy; therefore, staff works hard to keep the pace. Our table's server (Steven) is extremely hardworking. Steven repeatedly cleaned our plates despite having many busy tables. Steven also cleaned and checked with us throughout our stay. [Ambiance] Unfortunately, 100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) has poor ambiance. In the beginning, the location felt warm and humid; however, the air ventilation eventually got stronger. Thankfully, the location feels fresh, and its tables are clean. However, the floors/carpet quickly become messy with small napkin bits and tiny food scraps. The music is extremely quiet, and the main sound in this large location are happy chatting customers. 100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) is somewhat clean, but its scrappy floors resemble a busy Asian market. The plates were mostly very clean, but I noticed how the plate station near the desserts looked a bit sticky. Also, I was discouraged using the buffet clamps near the cakes because they all looked sticky and covered in cake bits. Thankfully, the other sections of the buffet were much cleaner. Overall, 100s Seafood Grill Buffet (San Diego) offers competitive prices and delicious food option. My family and I left very happy. 4.5 out of 5

I love this buffet! I came here on lobster Thursday. I think the service is great and the interior is clean and spacious. The staff is really attentive. They'd come by often to refill drinks and dump out scrap buckets. I'd give the experience 4.5 stars. The food is good, but for a seafood buffet on lobster day, I kinda wished for more lobster. I only saw the hot lobster come out twice while I was there, so I wasn't sure of the schedule on that. Maybe every 30 or 45 minutes? You'd have to line up in a long line to get it. So I only got it once and it didn't have much meat.

Omg!! We went here for my mom and sister's birthday. We are from Texas and that was by far one of the best all you can eat buffet. Like I ate 3 plates of food and never do that. Our server was great ALWAYS checking on our drinks. He was great at the end to explaining how are discounts broke down. We will definitely come back next time. It is fantastic.

We went at open and the food looked fresh and hot. We were seated in a corner booth and both my sister and I felt like we had bugs crawling on us. We found several ants on the bench and through a crack we saw a lot of ants. I addressed this with management and they indicated that they saw it too but still sat us there which was very frustrating. It was very very expensive for the amount of food. I wouldn't say the variety was unique but I expected more for the price. The crab legs were also on the cold salad bar which is not what we are accustomed to.

Easily the best restaurant of San Diego. Went on a Thursday night. For 2 hours straight, I devoured crab legs, lobster claws, and lobsters so fast, so much that I can't even fathom how explosively full I am. Can't walk for sht, frting so much. Paid my bill but stuck in my chair right now so might as well write them a boss review I guess. Oh & service was great.

Looking for a great asian cuisine buffet? 100s has it all from sushi, teppanyaki, seafood, desserts and more. Now it has been a very long time since I have been at 100s. I thought they had closed long ago. I can remember coming here when it was Todai in the 90s and it was the place to be as it was the closest thing to a legitimate Las Vegas style buffet in San Diego. Great selection of sushi's, hot food and seafood. My big standouts was the sushi bar which featured everything from custom rolls, sashimi and nigiri. Other standout was the Teppanyaki Grill - made to order based on your selections, cooked to your liking and well seasoned. A definite must visit for asian buffet lovers as there is something for everyone and the quality of food was pretty good. Service is great with the staff quick to refill your beverage and take away plates.

It has been a while since I've been back here and it has definitely felt like quality has gone down. You have to join the waitlist in person and the yelp app shows an inaccurate wait time. Refills were very slow with both drinks and food. Soups ran out and weren't refilled during the time I was there. Plates and utensils were sticky and the soda had an oily film. Other than that, there were plenty of food options and one of the better quality buffets in the area.

Whenever we have a birthday we come here still. There's an update to the birthdays though. Birthdays get discounts with parties of 6+ but it has to be the day of the birthday. They also offer senior discounts -10%. If you order anything other than a water you will be charged money for a fountain drink. They're closed on Tuesdays. On Thursdays it costs more money because of their lobster special. On Thursday it's $56.99 a person. Other weekdays it's $43.99. The kids' price (for ages 3-11) is calculated as $2.75 × their age in years. The food is delicious, fresh, and appealing. Everything is awesome. The servers are on point with water refills too. Some parking spots are narrow, so be careful where you park since your car may be dinged by other people's doors.

We went on crab leg night at 4:00 pm on a Saturday. Everything was fresh and tasty. This buffet has lots of fresh seafood including all kinds of shrimp, sushi, crab and assorted shellfish. They have lots of sushi, nigiri, makis and sashimi. Add in salads, soups, hot food of all kinds and delicious deserts to round it all off. The staff here are outstanding. They are helpful, polite and cheerful. They keep the restaurant spotless and the serving tables fully stocked. I over did it... Face it, you are going to go off your diet too. Its not your fault, let yourself off the hook and surrender to the seafood. Highly recommended.

100s Seafood Grill Buffet, is a seafood and grilled foods buffet located right under the I-8 and I-805 interchange. AMBIANCE Crowded, as a good buffet should be to keep the items fresh. The space is clean, casual, wide, and can get noisy with the crowds. There are Asian elements in the artwork and decor. SERVICE Staff are around and attentive enough to help clear plates and refill drinks. Everything else is self serve, buffet style. FOOD Lobster (Thursdays only): hot, steamed with garlic on half shell Black pepper beef: hot, tender, flavorful, sweet/spicy/savory Crawfish: hot, a simmering kind of spicy, use gloves Papaya: cold, sweet, silky Scallop: steamed with garlic over glass noodles on a shell, add the sweet scallion soy sauce for added depth Crème brûlée: I always want more crème brûlée whenever I finish it and the limit here did not exist Fried crab: delicate meat and spicy jalapeños Sea Snail: first time trying this

Food - Many options to choose from and they refill the foods pretty quick. Chicken wings and Fried Rice were pretty good. My family got the shrimp and crab legs and they enjoyed it. Dessert wasn't too bad either and they have a lot of options. Service - 15 min wait during dinner time and we were seated and serviced with no issues. Drink refills were subpar but I get that it gets busy during that time. Cleanliness was ok and the seating area was somewhat clean and the restaurant in general was sanitary. Ambiance - Noise level was fine and the lighting is pretty dim but nothing major. Typical asian style restaurant buffet ambiance. Overall- Somewhat pricey during dinner but you can definitely get your money's worth if you take advantage of the whole food options. They have a little but of everything to even include shrimp pasta and french fries so if you are picky, don't worry as they have something for everybody. The place is pretty big so expect a lot of customers and waiting in line at times but nothing that would be an issue. Try Natsumi in Mira Mesa if you want a smaller crowd. Would recommend 8/10

Haven't been to this place in years when it was Todai. It's nice to see how it's been renovated and similar food is being served. It's clean but crowded. If you plan on dining here with a large party, be prepared to wait and be seated next to other large parties - elbow to elbow - no joke. There might be hundreds of items available and you might have 100 minutes to dine... Who knows? The food is good. Vegas Style Buffet for sure without the drive. Whether it's sushi, steak or raw seafood, you're sure to find something you'll like. Deserts are so so but who realistically has room for dessert for crying out loud!? Maybe kids Tons of customers and lacking in staff but the staff work hard so remember to tip well. Id probably be back for sure but not for a while.

Come hungry. The variety is crazy. Nothing was incredible except for the crab of course. Sushi was decent. Don't forget to get butter for your crab. They have fancy silver buckets to throw in your crab shells. Did I mention they have crab?

Came on a Monday with a reservation at 6:30, and some of us came earlier. The guy (mgr?) asked if we would like to get seated first, which was nice of him! Service was quick and attentive. My family and I were pleasantly surprised at the quality of this buffet! We would nod in approval upon our first bite of seafood. Some highlights include: - Snow Crab - juicy, plump, and had a nice chew to it, indicative of it not being old. yum! A little hard/slow to eat though because the shell was either too soft or too hard at the claw. - Garlic Crawfish Boil - flavorful and generous with the garlic. - Green beans - Snails w butter, clams: per mom's fave - Ice Cream - such a wide array of flavors At $40 pp, with a 10% for seniors, I would say it's p reasonable at the quality and offerings. I also appreciated the extra attention to details: two areas to get lemons, a butter station, cajun seasonings/tabasco laid out for us to use, and gloves! Clean, spacious, with plentiful parking. It's not the most well lit sign, so it was a little easy to miss. Overall, a great experience and a central location to the fam. would def come back!

This buffet has SO many dishes I love it. Like all kinds of sashimi - especially the all-you-can-eat salmon! And tons of seafood: king crab legs,my favorite crayfish - all unlimited! And if you like Peking duck,you MUST try theirs! Best of all: they have sea urchin (uni)! Just ask the staff at the sushi station - it's a secret menu item!They'll also make fresh tuna hand roll if you ask. Just tell the staff what you want! Now onto the bad part, drinks/soda is not free, however the staff sneakily ask if you want drinks assuming they are free with the buffet. The secret items are only once per visit to the buffet, it doesn't clearly state that but it is.

It is actually about a 3.5. Amazing array of food. All the lobster you can eat on Thursdays in 100 minutes. Boiled claws, baked (overly so) half lobsters, snow crab, clams, mussels, a wide array of Asian dishes, from traditional Chinese, sushi, poke, tepannyaki, soups, salads, desserts, etc. Due to the variety, it is hard to execute excellently on everything, so some items were lackluster, including baked lobster and desserts and some of the Chinese entrees. It is a buffet, so, many people and noisy environment. We will do again if we are in the area on a Thursday. Best bet IMO is the lobster claws. Sterling service provided to clean up after each plate.

I really wanted to love this place. Everything looked good and the variety was immense. Sadly, besides the sushi, the quality of the food was extremely poor. The dishes were either bland and tasteless or had a hint of rancid oil. The sushi was actually good, although all the rolls were very similar. Unfortunately, not the pla e for our family and we will not be back. I honestly wouldn't waste your time or money.

You know why you're here. Gone head and get yourself some all you can eat crab legs and prime rib. Crab legs are always a win. The chicken wings are also fantastic. The sushi as well is pretty damn good. Those were probably my favorite items in the entire place. You also can't go wrong with a build your own stir fry but I couldn't stomach all of that after trying everything else lol. I was craving cheesecake and their strawberry is actually really good so had to save room for that. All around pleased. A good spot to get the best bang for your buck in crabs.

The sashimi is amazing, and there is something for everyone here. Endless snow crab legs, grilled meats, soups, salads, sushi, poke, duck, ice cream, etc. Items were well stocked on the Saturday I went and there is both a senior and birthday discount. Restrooms were clean, and wait staff were quick to pick up plates and empty our bucket (for bones/crab shells, etc). Ambiance was also nice enough for parties as I saw a group celebrating a graduation. 100% recommend. :)

My first time at this place even though my siblings bragged about it for years. This place ain't cheap.. you better come ready to chow down! lol There's a lot of food to choose from. The best item is the sushi. It's fresh and also a variety of menu items. I enjoyed the variety of ways shrimp was cooked. Their salt and pepper shrimp was good, and a nice size as well. Their crab legs were good, the only thing would be nice if they had the cutter to make it easier to open them up and eat as they had the cracker device but the crab shells were somewhat soft. Their soups could use improvement as well as the dessert. Otherwise, enjoy the sushi and the better stuff anyway.

We recently visited 100 Seafood Buffet for their lobster night, having previously enjoyed their regular buffets. The total for two adults, one senior, and a drink came to $174.80 before tip.   Overall, my family enjoyed the hot items, the variety of sushi, and the crab. The desserts section were pretty good too. However, I do want to highlight a couple of things about the lobster experience. There's a queue for the lobster that you have to get into, and it can get pretty long. We noticed that if you are wrapped around the salad bar half way, you might be waiting for the next round, which could be frustrating. They do come out every 10 minutes though.   As for the lobsters themselves, they were small and sliced in half--more like the ones you might find at Vons for about $5/tail.   Would we come back for lobster night? Sure. But it wouldn't be our top choice for special occasions.

Excellent Buffet almost but not quite like Vegas but for San Diego it works! I bring my own Snow Crab Leg Battle Gear Ready to attack !!! LOL Snow Crab is what I came for Very sweet and fresh. They don't offer steamed crab which is disappointing. The Prime Rib is ok wait til they get to the middle for your portion for your rare cut. fruit is fresh Excellent Variety of seafood selection to choose from mostly Chinese The sashimi is great and you can ask to cube it to make your own Poke Bowl. Ambience is very loud so don't expect to have a quiet lunch or dinner Overall very reasonable on price

We went there for the Lobster Buffet which only happens every Thursday night. Apart from the delicious Lobsters, they have a wide variety of seafood dishes and everything was great! The prime rib didn't disappoint. It was tender and juicy. The service was great- the staff were very attentive. It is a huge place that can accommodate big parties. The only thing that I think they need to improve on are the desserts . The selection is not great. Overall, it was a great experience and we will definitely be back again.

This place is amazing! I came in expecting great seafood, but they completely blew me away. Pros: The pasta is unreal - perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and just the right amount of sauce. Seriously, I could eat it every day. The steak is shockingly good - juicy, cooked exactly to order, and packed with flavor. Not what I expected from a seafood place, but I'm not complaining! Fresh, well-made sushi - great variety and super fresh ingredients. Definitely worth trying. Lobster Thursdays are a must - sweet, buttery, and cooked to perfection. If you're a lobster fan, this is your night! Great atmosphere and friendly service - everyone was welcoming, and the vibe was perfect for a nice meal out. Cons: It can get busy, especially on Thursdays (for good reason), so be prepared to wait if you don't have a reservation.( they only take reservations for large parties) It's a little on the expensive side, but honestly, the quality makes it worth every penny. Overall, this place is absolutely worth a visit. Amazing food, great service, and that lobster? I'll be dreaming about it until my next visit!

Better than average Asian buffet. We stopped by on a Saturday evening at about 6:45 pm. Yelp app noted a 5 minute wait, but there were probably 25 people waiting outside so we knew it was not going to be 5 minutes. Wait was still a reasonable 30 minutes. Busy buffet is usually good buffet so I much prefer to wait than go to a buffet with no business. Food was generally good to very good with only a few misses. - Sushi and sashimi were suprisingly good for a buffet; - Dim sum was only average and probably a pass; - Hot foods were good, my favorites were the Chinese steak cubes and the fried chicken wings; - Korean hibachi was good, pick you own toppings including beef, shrimp and scallops; - Snow crab was good and quickly refilled; - Fruit (cantaloupe, honeydew and papaya) were good considering it is winter; - Beef roast was solid. Not so good were the clam chowder (way too much flour) and desserts were pretty meh. If you like snow crab and sushi/sashimi, it is a decent value. Service was efficient with dishes cleared and drinks refilled quickly. Four stars.

100s Seafood Grill Buffet is just it self. The reason for that is because the food can be too sweet, salty, or spicy. Even though the service is good, the food they serve is just not for me. But, if you lay aside the food and service, the price is pretty reasonable. One person cost about 44 dollars. It is reasonable because they serve Snow crab. Personally, I just love Snow crab. Yeah the space and amount of property they own is pretty big and probably the reason on how there usually isn't a long line.

We came there on Sept 28 to celebrate my mom. Birthday.The food is good but service is okay. They took to long to refill our drinks. When I came home, I checked my receipt and I noticed they charged us 1 extra person. I called right away but no one answer the phone. I called the next day and same thing. Make sure double check your receipt before leaving the restaurant.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY BY EATING HERE!! Staff were all very friendly. We went shortly after it opened for the evening at 4:00 ( we arrived around 4:15) hoping everything would be hot and fresh. The first major disappointment was that the crab legs are served cold without any melted butter. They were ok but would be so much better served hot and with melted butter. Most of the hot food options were between ok and terrible. Luckily they provide you with a metal bucket for all your shells etc. I literally had to spit 4-5 items into a napkin and put them in the bucket. All the shrimp was way overcooked and very hard to peel (another sign it's overcooked). Duck and ribs were overcooked and dry too. Steak pieces were gross. The chicken wings were actually pretty good. I should have eaten more of those. I had a custom tepanyaki dish made with shrimp and tiny scallops. The cook mixed and stirred the ingredients way too much so the seafood didn't brown up at all but just steamed in with the veggies and noodles. I had a couple bites and threw the rest out. Dessert had lots of options but nothing looked particularly promising. As upset and disappointed as I was in the food, the $42 plus tax per person price made it even worse. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY BY EATING HERE!!

We came in on a Thursday afternoon and surprisingly it was LOBSTER NIGHT....$54.99 per person regardless if you eat lobster or not that's the price for THURSDAYS not only the price was surprising but the portioning they were doing for the lobster. Half of 1 lobster per person at a time. Keep in mind the line goes all the way to the desserts area... Service was amazing and sushi is always freshly made.
