Buffet includes soup and fruit. Most options are vegan but eggs are used so vegans should ask. 10-minute walk from the KK central tourist zone, in the Karamunsing Complex. Owner is a vegetarianism advocate. Reopened October 2022. Open Mon-Sun 11:00am-8:00pm. Sometimes closes at 7.30pm if quiet.

It is ok

9.90 buffet is pretty good value for money. The food itself isn't spectacular - they do offer small portions of sushi but it is mostly soups, one curry, rice, fried noodles, tofu and assorted vegetables.

It’s okay

We went around lunch time and didn’t see much being brought out, so most food was lukewarm. There weren’t any signs telling you what the items were. However, it was only 9 RM which is a reasonable price.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Not many options

Disastrous

I really don't know what all the fuss is about... I didn't have a good experience here at all. They are open until 9PM so when I arrived at 7:30 I expected to be in time... almost all the food was gone and they weren't making any more, but they still expected me to pay full price. The rice is the worse I've ever seen in my life, like wet porridge (kind of vomit-structure), it was really disgusting. For the rest they just had some overcooked vegetables, super sweet dessert stuff and dry tempeh which was too chewy. They had 2 pieces of sushi left, well thanks for that. Also way out of town in a mall, which says much about the ambience.

PLUS: Hairs in my food (check photo). Gross.

Sushi belt is fun

Food is pretty similar to economy rice. But a little bit more choise. And very good value for money. I would give more stars if the food was more spicy.
Go if you are hungry and or like vegetarian sushi.

Pros: Eat all you can for RM 9.90, Vegetarian sushi on moving belt

Cons: Alot of food you already eaten in economy rice. , Not so spicy

Great value!!

For 10MYR you get All You Can Eat buffet with many options.. Noodles, rice, different kinds of steamed vegetables, sauces, soups and even a small assortment of freshly prepared sushi. Definitely a great value deal! Best we tried in Malaysia during our 3 week stay.

Simple sushi & other Asian Cuisine

Good place for a relaxing dinner. The chefs requires time to make sushi as they make the sushi by batches and there are times where the sushi train would be bare before the next batch of sushi is prepared. They offer noodles, porridge, rice, tofu (contains egg), soup and fruits.
Not all sushi is vegan though.
If you're at the entrance facing the BATA shoe shop you need to walk right into Mac Donald's and look left for the other entrance to locate Usagi.

Pros: buffet style with a good spread, value for money, nice ambience

Cons: vegan options aren't labelled (you need to ask the, hard to find the place (had to call the staff to l, long wait for sushi (if not there's other food ava

One of the best veggie options in KK

All you can eat, no mock meat like some other veggie places, all tofu and veg. Huge range of dishes including dessert and drinks. Unlike other veggie food court places its handily open until 9pm

Pleasant Surprise

Stumbled upon this place in the mall, looked real nice. Only 8.90R fixed-price for dinner, for a decent sized all-you-can-eat buffet. About 20 dishes, All Very Tasty, a step-up from most inexpensive lunch-style Chinese buffets for sure. We sat in the back and eyed the sushi-go-round, which looked not-in-service, but 15 minutes later we saw it in rotation with many little colorful dishes. I asked the cashier how it works, how much, and she said "Included." No way! Then i ate 8 plates of sushi rolls (2 on each), and got seconds of all my favorite buffet dishes (all of them!) Fantastic meal, great value, plus sweets and coffee/tea. Highly recommended!

Pros: tasty, sushi-go-round included, nice ambiance

Cons: i only have 1 stomach, across from McDonalds, nothing!

Great food selection

Great buffet food selection. Tofu and mushroom to die for. They even have sushi (although supply was limited). All for just rm 9.90!

Nice and inexpensive buffet

When I first went there, it was busy and noisy lunch time and obviously there was a misunderstanding when I asked about vegan options so I was a bit unhappy. Then the second time was more quiet and I clearly asked what food has no egg, no milk, and the cashier came and pointed them out for me. Since that I have visited several times and learnt to recognise the dishes. They have wide variety of traditional Asian, mostly Chinese, dishes, including mains, breakfast foods (Chinese porridge with pickeld veggies), starter soup, desserts. They also have a Japanese sushi train. Iced tea and hot coffee are included as well. Some cut fruits are available and uncooked veggies: lettuce, cucumber, tomato.
Good value for the money and delicious food.
I wish they could be more helpful to the first time visitors and label the foods that are not vegan.

Pros: cheap prices, large variety of foods, Sushi available

Cons: Not fully vegan friendly , Suitable for vegans -labels missing, No list of ingredients for foods

Delicious and filling

Usagi is down the side of the Mall past mcdonalds. It has a big buffet for around 9 RM. The food is great and really varied. It's all you can eat, but we struggled to get further than one greedily heaped up plate. Great healthy feed that ticks all of the food groups.

Pros: all you can eat , lots of dishes that change very night

Cons: relative to street food it's a bit more $, but sti, food is not super hot as it's a buffet

Excellent buffet

I have visited this buffet 3 times now and enjoyed it every time. The price is 10RM inclusive of tax which is excellent as it includes drinks (iced tea, water and coffee), soup, main dishes and desert. Food is nice and there is a selection of mock meats and vegetable dishes.

Place seems quite clean but unfortunately the public toilets next door aren't!

Pros: Price, Tasty food, Varies day by day

Cons: Toilets next door
