Doors Ginza Garage Buffet: Reviews & Ratings
A nice EAYC ( eat all you can) seafood restaurant in Niles. The price is reasonable, it's a little busy place. they have a variety of seafoods. I like their fried blue crab , of course lobster ( only for dinner, I'm Not sure with lunch if they are serving lobster) white fish , bake clams. Soup. The eggplant is good and a lot more . They have limited sushi and desserts. Clean place and the service is quick.
Ok, after numerous birthday celebrations here and getting in line for the lobster tails, this rating automatically bumps up to 4 stars - I can't just simply substantiate 3 stars, if I keep coming back here. So it has to be 4 stars. Because the definition of insanity is "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" (Einstein). And I'm not insane, on the contrary - I'm very lucid and hungry. So here are my favorites, I won't go into the negatives because all of the reviews highlight those already. - the lobster tails are unlimited, come during the weekdays so you don't have to compete with your elbows - there's enough parking for a small town from Iowa - I like the walnut shrimp that doesn't have walnuts - the fried sweet bananas remind me of the Philippines, yes, I'm homesick - the BBQ ribs are excellent and sizzling when it comes out!!! - and my favorite....thee scallops on the half shell, I ate about 20 of those and they were huge and succulent. I didn't expect to get the Duke badge here but those are the things that attract me.
I never walk into these cheap Asian buffets expecting Vegas quality buffets. For $15, I think I got exactly what I paid for and didn't leave feeling sick. I obviously didn't try everything. I typically avoid sushi at any cheap buffet and most supermarkets. Chinese donuts taste the same as at any other Asian buffet. Fried rice and noodles tasted pretty standard. I enjoyed the fish dishes. Fried chicken was surprisingly juicy. The sweet and sour soup was mediocre - mostly sweet, a smidge hint of heat, no sour. This buffet went as cheap as you can possibly get and serves those ice cream cups that I haven't eaten since elementary school. Service was subpar - staff needs to walk around more changing out dirty plates and utensils.
