The Journey

Prices have went way up! The staff did not check up on our table just waited at the front door for more guests to come in but wouldn't take care of current guests. Food was good compared to other buffets but I did find hair in my noodles. The seating was all ripped up a piece of metal was hanging out from one of the railings. The bathrooms wreak couldn't stay in there longer than a minute. Vulgar Graffiti everywhere in there.Literally right after making this post I went to get my kid some ice cream and there was none left and one of the workers came behind me and told me to "get get go shoo move" because I was in her way. Very rude!! Another guest looked at me in awe the way she acted. Then when I was paying my bill the waiter wouldn't let me leave unless I gave her a tip of her liking!! I will never return to this place again!

Haven't been here in a while, had some visits where the selection seemed less, but went back (12.28.24) and was very pleased.we went at 6pm on a Saturday night and it was already packed with a full waiting room, but they seated us pretty quickly. Food was hot and plentiful (see pics). And for only $22 a person, a very good deal: sushi/rolls, prime rib, fish, again cuisine, and sour much more. #yum #ReviewsByRL

I am saddened to change my three star review to a lonely one star. When we arrived we were barely greeted almost inaudible woman who didn't look up from the desk. The facility inside and out isn't being maintained well. Today the food has been sitting out for quite awhile to the point is dried out, and the employees were standing/around or sitting chatting. The doors to the kitchen were propped open and loud talking and clanking carried out to the buffet area. It wasn't the fresh steaming food we were used to and has been gradually changing over the years.

The food here at this restaurant is pretty typical nothing special. It's just a normal Chinese buffet as anywhere else that carries a lot of the same items as any other ones. Of course the space is very very spacious. The ambience is very nice and the service could be a little better it's a hit or miss with some of the staff members.

Let me first say... I was very hesitant on trying The Journey due to all the differing reviews BUT I was pleasantly surprised! If you are looking for an Americanized Chinese buffet, this is your place. Tons of options ranging from sushi, crepes, mashed potatoes, multiple Chinese dishes, fruit, and dessert. Don't skip the coconut shrimp!There is quite a few parking spaces and so many seats within the restaurant that waiting isn't long even on a Saturday night!

My husband was hungry for shrimp and sushi. He thought going to the Journey would be a good place for fresh sushi. We went early, about 6:00pm. (They open at 5 on Saturday). When we arrived the parking lot was full. Upon entering the restaurant, there was no wait. We were greeted by a lady who asked how many?Upon telling her it was just us she raised her arm, as if directing a wagon train, for us to follow her to a booth. We were greeted at the table by wait staff named Emmy. She was friendly and offered us a drink menu suggesting sake for a drink. We bought the sparkling sake $13.95, it was really nice. Kind of sweet but not too much, perfect for spicy flavored food. The buffet is set up by salad and fruit, Sushi, American food with roast beef and ribs, fried food, Oriental custom stir fry and Chinese foods. In the center is a chocolate fondue (It used to be a chocolate fountain) My husband enjoyed shrimp cocktail, Kim chi and mussels. Then, sushi. I joined in the sushi, spicy tuna, tuna, shrimp on rice, tuna on rice. In addition my husband had clam and a couple other fish items. We felt that the sushi we ate actually paid for the meal. At this point, I am full but my husband got fried shrimp, soft shell crab, pot stickers and some other seafood dish. We were very pleased with our food at this point but thought we should try the prime rib. If I would have stopped prior to the prime rib my review might be different but the meat was awful. Raw. Tough. Some kind of roast but not prime rib. Dessert was coconut cookies and I wanted sesame balls. They were out but Emmy talked with a chef who made a new batch. She came to our table with a cup full and said she hoped I liked them. A kind jester that was not expected. Our bill with the sake was about $70.00. I had coffee which costs $3.50. (My husband commented that I could have had a beer for the cost of the coffee)It is no frills dining, with limited verbal interaction with the team members. Plates are cleared quickly and there is no rush dining.Would we go back? Certainly, for the sushi and not real soon but for a cold winter night out, and a husband craving big amounts of seafood it worked for us.

Came here recently at my brother's request for his birthday dinner; and I'm glad he chose Journey! I was impressed with the wide variety of foods--lots of sushi and pretty decent quality for buffet sushi. The crab rangoon... *chef's kiss* The potstickers... *chef's kiss* I look forward to going back! Xoxo, Is this thing on?

Great atmosphere, love the Sushi variety and people hospitality , am sure will be back

This restaurant has been around forever. When it opened, it was known for low prices, fresh food and a chocolate fountain surrounded with gargantuan strawberries, marshmallows along with other fruits to dip. While the huge fountain doesn't erupt from the restaurant's center at lunchtime (it maybe dinner only) there's still something for everyone. They have steak, spare ribs, sushi, dessert crepes made to order (limit 2 per person), a full salad bar, soups, pot roast, quesadillas and so much more.

Everything is delicious and plentiful Service was top notch Never had a bad experience here
