Tons of seating, huge variety of food, much more than just the usual deep fried foods (though they had those too). My favorites were the corn with cream and diced veggies (something about it was just super tasty), mussels, and the crab rangoon, the sweet cooked plantains were good too. Many tasty options. Service was good too, friendly, refilled my drink, and cleared my plates. Next time I’m passing through Waco I’ll have to come back. Yum!

Stay away from this place and if you do decide you wanna eat here, stay away from shellfish and any jello, literally smells like dirty sink water, never have I EVERRRR left a google review on any place and this place did it for me. Immediately felt queasy. I’m not from Waco and I disappointingly thought it’d be nice to eat here. Very upset. Money wasted. All they offered was 20% off but that is nothing really compared to the health anxiety I have now ab the oyster I ate. Literally disgusting. Would love to see how this place does under a health inspection review.

I’m a returning customer for about a yr now but I went in today to get a Togo order and at checkout I was presented with my receipt in which I was charged 8.37 more when they ran my card than what was on my receipt. This is complete dishonesty. Please check your cards and receipts after paying before you leave they will overcharge you and give you excuses of why and not return your money.

The food sucked, it was all over cooked with absolutely no flavor. Waitress was rude from the start couldn’t wait to walk away before barely getting my family’s drink order then didn’t come back for refills or to clear plates, till she brought the check. Then got upset about the tip. If you want a better tip, have better service. I honestly will not be returning to this establishment ever again. Summer palace is 100 times better go there instead.

An aging spacious Chinese buffet with no frills or thrills and ordinary cuisine. No sushi. There are two types of Asian buffets, low tier fried greasy comfort Chinese foods or high tier selections typically with sushi and raw seafood; this is the former. Occasionally you find a gem where you get offered high tier selections at low tier prices but this place offers nothing special. There are about 85 different items and most are similar in flavor: fried, sweet, and salty. The best 5 star items were buffalo wings, roast chicken, broccoli beef, and black pepper chicken. 4 star items include sesame and general tzos chicken. All seafood was 3-4, depending on your preferences. Do not get the egg roll, 1/5. There are snow crabs on Friday dinner only, which I missed. All in all, an average option for starving people and parties for your distant nephew or neice.
Flavor 3/5
Service 4/5 – they clear plates frequently
Atmosphere 3/5
Value 3/5 (no high ticket items, snow crab legs on Friday dinner only)

The visit was very upsetting. Ocean Buffet was an absolute disaster from start to finish. The food was genuinely terrible—bland, overcooked, and inedible in some cases. The service was just as bad, slow and inattentive, like the staff didn’t care at all. To top it off, there was food literally under our table that hadn’t been cleaned before we were seated, which is just disgusting. I’ve never experienced such a sloppy, unprofessional buffet, and I wouldn’t go back there under any circumstances. The booth tables were taped together as well which isn’t terrible but it just looks tacky instantly…

My family of five stopped by for a quick meal.
The dish was flavorless and stale.
I couldn’t find a single dish with flavor.
The staff was friendly.
My kids had fun challenging one another to try the sushi.
Following our meals here, we all experienced digestive problems.
Will won’t be returning any time soon.
