Supreme Hibachi Buffet now open (Old Ryan's on Coursey)

I was driving by and the sign said "grand opening Monday July 23", so I decided to peek in to see what it was all about. I approached the entrance way and a couple were leaving and this is the exact thing I heard one person say to the other, "I thought it would be better than that for a grand opening. I'm not coming back." (True story )

I didn't have time to try it but I asked to check out the spread. They've retained the old grill area from Ryan's, but obviously it's now a hibachi style grill. Chicken along with fake Krab and veggies are ready to be cooked.

There are probably seven other stations, one had salads with chilled peel and eat shrimp, mussels, squid salad, kimchi, etc.

Another was a protein station that had a whitefish, salmon (both appeared overcooked...not a surprise for a mid afternoon buffet), pork and ham.

A couple of other stations looked right out of the Great Wall with your expected Chinese fare.

Soups included miso, egg drop, a seafood soup, and I'm not sure if I saw hot and sour.

The sushi station had variety of a dozen rolls only.

There was a desert station with the usual Little Debbie snacks, various melons, but what was interesting is that they had a cascading chocolate fountain that you could take a skewer with a lone threaded marshmallow and dip into it. Perhaps a nice concept for an upscale champagne brunch with strawberries, but I could see this thing being one huge mess. We'll see how long that feature lasts.

One thing that I was impressed with is that it didn't seem overly depleted like some buffets can get mid afternoon.

I also didn't ask about pricing.

On a side note, I noticed that the old Dingo building next door is accumulating some nice graffiti.
