I was starving after yoga, and it's Christmas Day, so obviously, nothings open. Being the awesome Jewish lady that I am, it's mandatory that I eat some kind of Chinese (well, in this case Japanese) cuisine for the holiday. The places in my area are atrocious, so I am forced to venture out to find better options.
I don't know why I chose Fiji because they're crazy expensive comparatively speaking to other places. But, I also did not want slop, so that rules out 90% of the places that are open today. Fine. Fiji it is.
Pulling up this place is in a strip mall and from the outside it looks kind of small and sad. I was hesitant going in, and almost went to the Vietnamese place next door. "no" I thought, carry on how bad can it be?
Well, I'm glad I went. I walked in and the place is HUGE! loads of seating, clean and well decorated. The food is delicious too! Holy hell I ate like a wild animal. At one point I thought I was going to pass out, but no, I was just that hungry. I kept getting sushi, egg drop soup, fried shrimp and the noodles!
It's a lot of seafood here, obviously and some of it was a bit foreign to me. Stuff I'd never seen before and served in a way I wasn't familiar with. Maybe if I wasn't so hungry I would've tried it and investigated more, but I was on a mission.
My only complaint was two fold. While they did a fantastic job of clearing my dishes, they had ample staff roaming around. I never got drink refills and I was very thirsty. Secondly, the sprite (or starry, I can't tell) tasted funny and was a bit syrupy. Drinkable, but needed more carbonation. Also, I had to flag down my server not just for drinks, but my bill.
I didn't dock a star because it's Christmas day and the place is legit top notch for a buffet. (have you seen Golden Coral? this is way better, obviously. but so is gas station food. I don't eat gas station food but that's the equivalent of Golden Corral. I digress, back to my review.)
Anyway, the place isn't cheap but you legit get a ton of food, clean plates, and so much you will pass out into a food coma on the way home. Thank you!
