Check this out: Makino's Japanese Buffet

So my first blog post is going to be on a cute little Asian Buffet called Makino's. This place already gets a plus from me because I adore Asian food the way teenage girls adore kittens. And for such a location, I'm surprised by the restaurant's atmosphere. I certainly liked it, a beautiful fountain in the front, exotic plants scattered around just enough to give a cozy lunch feel. The staff was very friendly and seated me and my friend very quickly (probably because it was lunch rush but there wasn't much of a rush) And our waitress came, gave us our drinks and sent us on our way to the buffet. Most of the food is served hot and another plus for the habachi grill station that continuously puts out freshly made beef or chicken. There was also freshly made sushi that, even as mundane as it might have seemed, still gave me the little kick I needed. There is also a cold station that serves previously cooked then chilled seafood, and on the other side desserts, fruits and different flavors of self serve ice cream. And don't even worry about breaking your budget because both the lunch and dinner menus are affordable.
Anyway it's a great place to go if you're looking for a place to have a lunch date or take the family out for an inexpensive meal. -Itadakimasu!

  3. There was this Japanese restaurant up in Daytona Beach that wasn't actually too bad. I've never actually been to one before that one, but it was a pretty good experience. If I'm in the area, I'll be sure to check this place out. Thanks.

  4. 10 dollars is not enough for lunch.

  5. yeah? considering that most places have lunch specials that start from around 5 bucks to 10 bucks, seriously how much is a regular sandwich or a soup on a lunch menu?
