Review content:
Firstly, I will NOT be returning to eat here again. I was really disappointed with the food and wish I had gone to Fresh Choice today instead.
When I first arrived, I walked around wondering where the 200 items were. It seemed more like 50 items. After 50, they must have started counting dinner plates and chop sticks.
I really struggled to find enough decent looking food to eat. I have never seen such a small salad bar in my life. If you like lettuce and hate raw veggies, you will love Umeko because the whole vegetable salad bar consisted of just lettuce and salad dressing.
Apparently this buffet is under new ownership and unless they make some changes, they are doomed for failure. I remember the Umeko Japanese Buffet years ago and thought the food was very good then. I had a hard time finding anything Japanese about this buffet except for the sushi which was some of the worst looking sushi I had ever seen in a Chinese Buffet.
I eventually concluded that there were five items that I liked: the watermelon, the honeydew, the ice cream, a corn and shrimp dish, & their seafood combo dish. The rest of the food looked like it was left over from the previous day. The cooked salmon was terrible and mushy. I assumed they overcooked it in water.
I had a coupon which said $2 OFF TOTAL PRICE with purchase of 2 Adult Buffets. When it came time to pay, they charged me the regular price of $6.99 per person plus the tax which came to $15.20. Then they deducted the $2 and the bill came to $13.20. I pointed out to them that I was paying tax on the $2 because they deducted it last and the $2 should have been deducted first. They insisted they had the right to do that, and I wondered what kind of game they were playing asking her if this was the Chinese way. She said it was not the Chinese way and showed me the coupon which said $2 off TOTAL price. I decided to just let them win. Nevertheless, it seems like this accounting practice is illegal. I can't imagine why they would want me to pay more tax than necessary...LOL.
Consequently, even the paying of my bill continued to make my whole experience with Umeko Buffet disappointing. Well, almost my whole experience. At least I was able to practice my Chinese when I said, ""Thank You,"" in Chinese to a cute female employee who gave me a gorgeous smile after getting me a teaspoon to eat my ice cream with and then again, ""Be careful,"" in Chinese when the bus boy slightly slipped on the floor. He laughed. Those two incidents were the highlight of my day.
Pros: You can try to practice your Chinese
Cons: Salad bar consisted of only lettuce & salad dressing
