We really meant to go across the street to Bismilla’s, the Indian Restaurant with an $8.95 dinner buffet that we really enjoy…(excellent food!), but their buffet closes at eight and I didn’t want to spring for regular dinner (a lot pricier), so we looked across the st. and found VIP Oriental Buffet…
I asked about MSG and was given a note with plates that didn’t have it, most of which were un-available, An older man seeming to be the cook directed me to 4 dishes, I woke-up with a headache lasted all day! Two days later finally reaced the owner who refused to refund me, totally un-acceptable!

what can i say, the title says it all. onami’s a place i like to go to treat myself at. there’s nothing outstanding except the variety and quantity of food, and as i’ve come to frequent it and the staff has recognized me i’ve found them to be friendly and pleasant!
i have a large appetite and i like healthy food, both of which can be found here. i like being able to choose what i want and when i want it, plus having it already cooked or prepped is a real plus. it’s not a personal, cozy atmosphere with bright lights and lots of people, but the food satisfies and this Restaurant location far excells the others present in the county.
unlike the other franchises like escondido or carlsbad, the food here is fresh and abundant, and u can still get sashimi and hand-rolled at lunch, not cheap at $18 a pop, but still afind for sushi!

i’ve been going to fairouz for years. Al Nashashibi, the owner has become a friend, someone you enjoy greeting and checking-in with, his entire family seems involved in the business. i’ve seen his father there, his brother, and his children. He was a lawyer in Jerusalem, and has taught Art here, and traveled extensively. His Art adorns the Restaurant, and, best of all it’s for sale. Years ago he gifted me with one oh his lithos after I gave him a book of Van Gogh’s Art.
Now for the food. It’s like home-made, not greasy orf ull of preservatives, but wholesome, delicious, with those perfect touches of perhaps mint, or lemon, to augment and stylize the flavor. There’s a large variety of dishes, cold, to hot, vegetarian to lamb and chicken, and best of all, it’s all you can eat, my favorite…
