King's Buffet impressed with its massive variety of Asian cuisine. The fried crab was beautifully prepared with a crispy exterior and delicious flavor. The dim sum station stood out, particularly the crystal shrimp dumplings which had tender insides and excellent seasoning. The reviewer created a sushi barbecue plate featuring braised mushrooms with an outstanding sauce that impressed throughout the visit.
The pan-fried gyoza were executed perfectly, and the fried plantains provided an unexpected but delightful addition to the meal. The broccoli was nicely sauteed with a savory brown sauce. For desserts, the chocolate mousse was particularly enjoyed, along with ice cream from the soft serve machine. Fresh fruits and poke balls rounded out the extensive options.
