Ko: Sin Ki: Buffet

Nothing tastes better than a free buffet. So glad we stopped in and signed up for the players card. We received 10 dollars towards the buffet and then after gambling received another 10 dollar voucher. I thought the food was delicious. My favorite was the churros for dessert. I’m glad so saved room for them.

My husband & I decided to try out the Desert Diamond American Buffet in Tucson on a Wednesday afternoon due to the long line at the diner. We were pleasantly surprised and here’s why… We each had a $10 coupon to use, so we figured it would be worth it for our first try. There was NO line and we could sit wherever we wanted instead of being brought to an undesirable table. We opted for a booth (most of the tables were out in the open, which isn’t our preference). We put our receipt down and went to see what was on offer. Again…we were pleasantly surprised! Of the items I recall, there were: corn on the cob (which I ate, but would not recommend although my hubby liked his), macaroni & cheese, mashed potatoes with gravy if you desire, fried fish, vegetable fried rice, pirogies, beef birria, pork carnitas, flour tortillas individually rolled and wrapped, red potatoes, tri-tip steak, chicken thighs, grilled vegetables, dinner rolls, salad bar, potato salad, macaroni salad, cottage cheese, cold seafood to include shrimp, clams, and muscles. Most of these items were labeled and I know I am missing some other items. Their desert bar had rather small yet appropriate portion pieces for you to choose from, which is good because we were full. From my best recollection, they had various jello, cherry pie, pecan pie, apple pie, cookies, hot apples, churros, cheesecake, an ice cream machine, and other colorful delights I don’t know the name of. Our service was great. We didn’t have to ask for a refill on our drinks - Margarita was on it! The only complaints with our entire dining experience was the deserts weren’t labeled. Now I know a thing or 2 about deserts, so it’s not that hard to tell a piece of pie from a cookie. What WAS hard, was the fact that there weren’t any signs indicating sugar free items from their twin delights. I thought the handwriting on the glass indicating each hot item was so beautiful too, so they missed the mark on this. Also, we have no idea how much the buffet was. We used our $10 off coupon and the woman at the register told me I had enough points to cover the remaining balance. All in all, we’ll be back. We had a delicious lunch and now that I know the desert on the first 2 tables are sugar free, we’ll just skip that area all together. Again…it doesn’t matter & we’ll be back!
