Edible, but that's about it
by rcj1
I'm new to the area, so I've been looking for a nice sushi place. I saw the good reviews for China Best online and thought I'd give it a try.
I wish I hadn't.
We got the buffet. There was a good variety of sushi available, so lots of new stuff to try. However, the sushi tasted as if it had been sitting out for a couple of hours. Fresh fish is moist and flavorful; this fish was dry, bland, and a bit rubbery. Also, they got the proportions of salt and vinegar wrong in their rice, so it tasted a bit too salty and had a strange doughy consistency. Some of the rice had the unmistakable crunch of having been sitting in the rice cooker for a few hours too long.
This all would have been forgivable if the restaurant ever put out fresh sushi, but in the hour that we sat there waiting, they never did--not even when a particular type of sushi ran out. The Chinese portion of the buffet had similar issues--it had been sitting out for hours, was cold, and was never replenished with fresh food.
I don't consider myself a food snob by any means, but I've been to good sushi buffets. This would be an ok place to go if you've never tried sushi, would like to try a variety of different types of sushi, and would have no idea what you were missing. But if you like sushi, pass on China Best.
