NO BUFFET! Please note there are OLD PHOTOS on Google showing photos from years ago when Lai-Lai used to have a buffet. Since the pandemic sadly, they have not been able to re-open their buffet - and DO NOT PLAN TO OPEN IT IN THE FUTURE. They still have the empty buffet tables in the restaurant (as they are very large units and have not been removed yet) - so if you dine in - you didn't miss the buffet - they do not serve the buffet anymore. I've noticed a few reviews mentioning the buffet so I don't want anyone else to come to Lai-Lai under false pretenses expecting to eat at a buffet. Also - Google shows "all you can eat" and I do not see anywhere to suggest an edit for that - so be aware - it is NOT all you can eat, as the buffet is no longer in existence. IF you want delicious, authentic Asian Cuisine and incredibly fresh, delicious tasting Sushi - this is your place! We've been eating here since 2002 (when we found the restaurant) and have been eating here faithfully monthly all that time. The restaurant is family owned and they treat you like family. I once sat at the sushi bar next to a man telling one of the owners that he lived in Japan when his dad was stationed there in the service and he said that Lai-Lai's sushi is the same as the quality they serve in Japan at the best sushi restaurants. I haven't been to Japan but I know Lai-Lai's sushi blows away other restaurants. They don't cover their sushi in heavy overdone sauces, they season the fish lovingly with wasabi, lemon, etc. - to bring out the true flavor of the fresh fish. The atmosphere is always clean and quiet. It's a perfect place for a large family party or date night. NOTE: Make sure to CALL them first before stopping out to make sure they are open as they have been hosting a lot of private parties. I assure you though - they are well worth the trip! Try them! You won't be disappointed.

This hidden gem 💎 of Orlando has the best Chinese food, amazing five star service as well atmosphere. Their susi is beyond fresh and the food taste is amazing. Large menu, fair prices. I can't wait to return. I felt like I was having a fine dining experience while staying budget friendly.
