Tomi Sushi & Seafood Buffet

"I've been to the Union city Tomi buffet (closed) and this one since 2014, I would come here once or twice per year. The food is ok/good, tastes ok, seafood sometimes is not very fresh, but overall it is alright. Back then it was pretty good, cos for the price it's really good value (it was $27 for weekend dinner), we would come here when family visits. However now it's $42, for that price I can't recommend most people to come here, unless you only eat the expensive seafood and sashimi. Cos for $42 you can get steaks, really good sushi or any other stuff, it would probably still cost less per person. -1 for price/value, -1 for food freshness/cleanliness."

"Tomi has been on my list for a while now. SF barely has any buffets so you bet I was excited to make a trip down just to stuff my face with whatever I wanted to eat because calories don't count when you're in food paradise. ;) Arrived around 11:30am on a Sunday and got seated right away. Maybe half of the restaurant was filled. By 12:00-12:30pm, the whole place was packed and a line started to form. The place didn't look very big and didn't look a whole lot of options. Brutally honest... I was quite disappointed by the quality of the food and selections. The crab was grainy and mushy.. the wonton noodles were dense and uncooked. The orange chicken was stale. The tempura had more batter than anything. The crawfish was a no. A lot of the stuff were cold. But what I did like was their duck (even though it was slightly undercooked), chow mein, tomato salad (LOL), eggplant, salt and pepper shrimp, and pineapple. Unfortunately by the time we got home, my bf’s stomach was hurting pretty badly. I really wanted to like this place but it was underwhelming. Service was good. Nothing negative other than the fact that they gave us the check 20 minutes into our meal. They collected our empty plates pretty frequently which is nice. For $27.99/person, I guess you get what you paid for. I probably wouldn't come back. 01.07.2024 | Sunday @11:30am"

"I enjoy a variety of dishes from this place, including various rolls, shrimp dumplings, and roasted duck. Despite visiting for the third time, I've only sampled a third of their extensive menu. I always enjoy coming here to eat good food, but the place is very noisy and often overcrowded. Anyway, I recommend this place for everyone who likes buffet and seafood."
