Shabusen Yakiniku

With AYCE lunch and dinner menus, you really can’t go wrong at Shabusen. If sushi is the vibe but you want to sample more than just your standard salmon or avocado rolls, Shabusen has a ton of sashimi, maki rolls, gyoza, and Korean BBQ options to choose from.

Tandoori Flame

This one’s a personal fave, and it’s the largest AYCE Indian buffet & restaurant in North America with 150 items to choose from!
