Mizumi Buffet

I've never had a 5-star experience at a buffet because... you know what to expect at a buffet; buffet-quality food.The food at Mizumi, however, really was much better than expected. And there was such a great variety, I wish I was able to eat more because I couldn't even try everything.From what I did grab, though, there wasn't a single thing that I didn't like.My only complaint, which was a huge bummer, is their website doesn't have the pricing for the lunch buffet. We thought it was $16 per person (as that was the only price we could see on the website) but it was about $23 per person, if I remember correctly.

We came here for the first time on Sunday night 7/21/24 around 7:30 PM with no wait time. So many seafoods such as hot steam snow crab and manilla clams, crawfishes in hot sauce, scallop in shell baked, Salted shrimp, fried squid, shrimp stir fried with vegetables.Steam snow crab is very tasty and sweet, not salty at all. Makoto has cold snow crab which were a bit salty.All the dishes above we ate were very good, not salty compared to Makoto buffet.Sashimi such salmon, tuna and red snapper. All the foods got cooked & filled up very fast at the buffet. Sashimi got cut and fill up all the time even restaurant was half full on Sunday night. Makoto buffet we just got only salmon if we got lucky and it was on Saturday around 6 PM. Kudo for the team in the kitchen. Desserts selections with water melon, honey dew, cantaloupe, orange, cakes, ice cream are decent 4 star.Waiter and waitress cleaned up our dirty dishes regularly. Excellent service around. 5 star for seafood and service staff.4 star for dessert.Definitely going back.

We ate here twice while staying in Portland. It is an ALL YOU CAN EAT. $20.99 per person! Here's my thoughts about it.Food: Variety of sushi, Asian, and American food. The sashimi was very fresh. Food was alright. They had Dungeness crab, which was very dry. They did have fruits, a couple of cake desserts, and pudding. For ice cream, they have popsicles and ice cream cups (strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate).Service: The worker who was in the sushi section stopped making the kanikama (crabmeat) sushi and sashimi after she saw how much my family and I were taking. It is an ALL YOU CAN EAT place, there should not be any restrictions on how much we can take. Water refills by the waiters were consistent though. You do pay for your bill at the cashier after you're all done eating.Parking: Big shared parking lot with lots of stalls.Interior: Many seating areas. Clean tables including booths. Good lightening.

First time coming here and I have to say my first impression was not good I started off with sushi as I was grabbing my pieces of sushi the tongs knocked off the piece of fish of another roll. The lady behind the counter picked it up from the counter and put it back on the sushi!!!!!! Wtf that's nasty!!!! It fell! Besides the food is okay you get what you pay for at this point. Won't be coming back!

Update: I returned today and inquired more in depth about their to-go take out buffet pricing. Sushi is priced per piece, not per roll, or by the pound. Whether you get vegetarian or sashimi style pieces, they are $.75/ea. I did not get any sushi today. I got a mix of non seafood entree items that are $5.99/lb. If you mix seafood with other meats it is $7.99/lb. Seafood only is $11.99/lb. I saw the scale at checkout and it was .9#. I was charged $5.39. So all good!

OMG! I have lived in the area for 2 years and never been here since I thought the food would suck but let me tell you, dinner time buffet is the best. Lots of seafood and sushi, it doesn't disappoint. It was $20.99 per person they have different price for lunch and to go. Service was good greeter at the front was very cheerful. Atmosphere was mellow, dinner time had just started when I came so it wasn't busy until 20 mins later. This place did not disappoint, will be coming here more often when family comes over.

Short: In the old Hometown buffet comes a different buffet! I would have gone elsewhere if I could. Too pricey for what it is and was! This is more like a 2.5 honestly only based on the sole fact of wide food selection. Great selection, lots of sushi Japanese Chinese great variety, but temperatures of the food weren't in sync, overly price for what it was. Service was barely there, had to ask 3 times for a refill on my soda, and it took a while for them to clear plates. (I don't expect outstanding service at a buffet, but I do expect a reasonable amount of time to fulfill a minor request - like a soda refill) Food: I had sashimi, which tasted great and I didn't get sick! I always worry about fish laying around for too long. Lots of selection, but some of the foods were not all the same temperature, which I was not happy about. Also it took a while for foods to be replenished. From what I can remember, I took out my family of 5, and it cost us about $110. For lunch, not dinner. Oh, and only 1 pepsi and 1 tea. [Overall] I don't think I will be coming back, it is too pricey and therefore a disappointment. Despite the wide selection, the temps and refills just wasn't quick or hot enough for it to be worth the price they're asking.

Came here with family because we're Filipinos and a meal without rice is one that drives the relatives closer and closer to insanity. The waiting area is kinda chaotic. The cashier was nice, but she had to make us wait to the side while she cashed customers out, since she was the only one who was also assigning seats. At least the wait wasn't too long. Once we sat down we did find things we like. It's typical Asian buffet stuff- soup station, fried foods station, grilled bowls, salad station, sushi station. Although nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable. The best thing about this place is that it's filling, not too bad a price, and it was next to an HMart, which is always itself a treat.

Food was great. Service 1 fast to be seated and then got our food. Staff filled the buffet line as it got low with food. Staff took employ plates away quickly. No one rushed us out. Great experience

When I first started coming here the profound were like a normal buffet but then after coming here with my family we realized they reduced the prices amazing service even though we serve our selfs the staff is still sweet and you need to try the coffee cake 10/10
