West Coast Seafood Buffet

Went to West Coast Seafood Buffet at Hacienda Heights for dinner.
I heard tons of horro stories about this buffet, not that I wanna test my tummy out. The reason why I went there tonight is cuz I got $50 gift cert. Mom won this gift cert from some event. We are not a big fan of Buffet plus it's all the way up in Hacienda Heights... We been trying to give the gift cert. away but everyone we asked they simply reply errr WEST COAST, horrible food that can get you food poision! Hot foods are too salty, anything they can add water is too water down, and seafood are not fresh. Since the gift cert. will expire coming Monday I decided to take a risk of trying it out myself. ERRRR everyone was right, that place is over priced with horrible food! Todai is much much much better plus you won't have the fear of FOOD POISION!

The buffet is full of food everything looks interesting~~~ Since I read ALL the posts on YELP.COM I know what to eat and what not to eat. First I went for the hot food. The name tag next to the food are mostly WRONG~ So I just take the food that looks more tasty for me. I took a few bite of my hot food, mmn they are not hot. Did they forget to turn on the heat lamp or the food has been sitting there since lunch time??? No my friend mentioned to me that the food tasted like they been sitting there since yesterday. GROSS~~~ Next I went for the raw section (Sushi...) The raw fish has a funcky taste!!!! The rice they used are not sushi rice!!! GROSS~ The cooked rolls are not bad~ The crazy part is that the Sushi chef was on his cell phone yellowing while making sushi. >,< Lord~~ I never seen this before~ Soup is the next item I got... There are 4 different kinds of soups, I got three of them. GROSS, no need to describe in detail... simply GROSS. Oh, at 7pm the rest. were serving 1/2 of lobster per person. Mmn, I never seen lobster meat that's gray looking. The chef even tried to cover the gray meat by adding sauce on top of the meat. I think they bough lobsters that are DEAD! Nasty~ Double Nasty~ They did came out UNI SUSHI, not fresh at all. After one uni sushi I didn't even bother to get more. The dessert soup are very very water down and gross too! Even the ice cream is water down. While eating there I felt my skin was all itchy~ Good part about this place is that, the service is pretty good. They take away the plate as soon as I went for my next plate of nasty food. They didn't even question me about all the left over food. There are signs all over the rest. saying please do not waste food... blah...blah...blah... Man, if the quality of the food is good I don't think anyone would wanna waste the food!

Oh, gotta mention it cost $19 per person at dinner time. OVER PRICED!!! I rather go TODAI where I paid $40 dollars for a really good decent seafood buffet! TODAI has much much better sushi, lobster!!!!

I really wanna know where does WEST COAST BUFFET orders their products, cuz it's HORRIBLE!!! Quality of people who goes there are horrible too~ SAD~~~ I hope this place close down SOON, VERY SOON~
