What People Are Saying About Oriental Gourmet

In Short – A mix of large booths and tables make up the majority of the ambiance at this bustling Asian buffet. Although there are two other Houston-area locations, Clear Lake boasts a dedicated sushi chef and a Mongolian stir-fry bar where diners can choose to work in their veggie servings or focus on meat. The massive buffet features other popular Chinese dishes, Gulf Coast seafood, Japanese items such as pot stickers, Vietnamese noodle dishes (including pho) and spring rolls, chicken lettuce wraps and more.

Best of all the Asian buffets I've been to. On week-ends, they put out good seafood too. Excellent selection of sauces, and superb Thai soup.

Better Than Your Average Buffet

by HouBlu

This is not what you would expect from a normal chinese food buffet. Many different foods to select from including mongolian grill, sushi and pho noodle buffet.

The service is friendly but not invasive and the cost is definitely reasonable. Sometimes it's a little loud on weekends due to kids and alot of business, but that's a good thing, too.

Their mango chicken and crispy honey chicken are to die for.

Crab legs are good, but a little tough and messy to get into...the crawfish could be seasoned better.

My only complaint is that the sushi buffet would not serve me seaweed salad ala carte...I had to get it off the buffet in a tofu pouch over sushi rice...I didn't mind but felt wasteful throwing away the rice and tofu pouch when I was done eating the salad.

Stay away from the stuffed crab, it's not your typical herb seasoned breadcrumb filled variety....took one bite only to find that it was filled with mayo based seafood salad like you would get at a Subway sandwich shop. Last time I checked mayo was NOT supposed to be cooked in this manner.

  • Pros: lots to choose from, sushi, reasonably priced
  • Cons: some "mystery" dishes

greatest Buffet Period.

by Cholonmoi

You would not believe what we had found. We did not realize this great buffet (because it just say ORIENTAL GOURMET.) So glad that we have found it. It is big & tasty. Excellent food varieties: Chinese, Vietnamese, & Sushi. Service was awsome. You have got to try it. We took a few business cards home so we can tell.......

  • Pros: beatiful decoration and spacious
  • Cons: need to state that it is a buffet restaurant so people would try
