Visited for lunch on a weekend. The price was 3700 yen for adults (excluding tax) and 1600 yen for preschool children (excluding tax). We were able to enter without a reservation. The restaurant was spacious, especially the back room where the tables were well spaced out, which was convenient for families with children. The format was buffet style, with dishes replenished regularly. The menu included appetizers, vegetable salad, soup, main dishes, desserts, and free soft drinks. The selection was quite traditional but with a good variety. Personally, I enjoyed the crab and egg white shark fin soup, which had a nice balance of saltiness. The children particularly liked the home-style Chinese noodles. The drink bar was similar to those found in family restaurants. The staff inside the restaurant were all very friendly and their smiles were comforting.

During lunchtime, I went to a buffet with 5 friends from my high school days. The table was big and the space was spacious, allowing us to enjoy our meal comfortably. I have allergies to shellfish and mollusks, but the staff were very attentive and explained each dish to me. They even made a special soup without allergens for me. The soup was delicious! The Chinese food was not greasy and I ended up eating too much. I particularly enjoyed the dried fish and sansho pepper fried rice, spring rolls, spare ribs, sesame balls, and mango pudding. I loved the sesame balls so much that I wished I could take them home... haha Also, the fact that there was no time limit during lunchtime made it a great deal. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Visited Shinagawa Prince Hotel for the first time in May 2019 and had a gathering at this Chinese buffet restaurant. I don't have a great impression of buffet-style meals at Prince hotels, they feel more like mass-produced. Everyone got their own drinks and food, and the table gradually filled with brown-colored dishes. Unfortunately, the flavors were lacking. I wish they would put in more effort. Thank you for the meal.

I suddenly decided to go to Hapuna, the Luxe Dining restaurant on the first floor of Shinagawa Prince Hotel near Shinagawa Station, but dinner reservations were full at all times. There is a bulletin board on the 4th floor of the Prince Hotel that shows the availability of restaurants, and I found that there was a little availability at Son Goku. <Buffet menu> Salad, dim sum, grilled xiao long bao, shrimp in chili sauce, sweet and sour pork, stir-fried beef fillet with mapo tofu, crab fried rice, yakisoba with five ingredients, collagen meatball hot pot, beef shabu-shabu, udon, chawanmushi, sesame dumplings, almond tofu, mango pudding, fruits, and more. There were not only Chinese dishes but also Japanese side dishes, and desserts such as matcha dumplings and roll cakes. The restaurant was spacious, quiet, delicious, and had no time limit, which was great. I was also pleased by the hospitality of gently covering the bags placed on the chairs. Shinagawa Prince Hotel is currently offering a special campaign with discount coupons from seven restaurants until March 31. It's a shame that I couldn't use this coupon if I had made a reservation at Son Goku by 5:00 pm on the day of the visit. If you plan to visit, be sure to make a reservation. Shinagawa Prince Hotel Son Goku.

Shinagawa Prince Hotel 4th floor Chinese buffet Sun Wukong. Reasonably priced, we were able to enjoy a wide variety of Chinese dishes at a leisurely pace with family and friends. The desserts were small bite-sized ice creams in a case, and we were completely satisfied even with the coffee.

This time during my business trip to Tokyo, I stayed at the Prince Hotel in Shinagawa. It had been a while since I last stayed here. The hotel used to be famous for its buffet, with long queues forming at times. However, nowadays buffets are common in many hotels, making it difficult to stand out. This time, I decided to try the Chinese buffet. It was nice to be able to enjoy dim sum in the morning. Despite being Chinese, they also had curry and scrambled eggs, offering a diverse selection. I particularly enjoyed the sweetness of the scrambled eggs. The freshness of the salads was also impressive. The best dish for me was the water dumplings. Thank you for the meal.

No delicious food!

This is a Chinese buffet on the 4th floor of Shinagawa Prince Hotel. I visited early, so all the dishes seemed freshly made, which was nice. Jellyfish salad, squid with mayonnaise sauce, bang bang chicken, meatballs, steamed fish, spring rolls, shrimp chili, mapo tofu, fried rice, seafood yakisoba with sauce, dim sum, and more. I feel like I conquered a little bit of everything. Among them, the ones that I thought were quite delicious were the mapo tofu, shrimp chili, and seafood yakisoba with sauce. The mapo tofu had an authentic Sichuan flavor, the shrimp chili was quite spicy but had a deep umami taste, and the yakisoba noodles were chewy and delicious even without much sauce. The dessert selection was abundant, with convenience store-like sweets, but the fruits were surprisingly tasty. Overall, the flavors were average, and the price of 4,000 yen is still hotel price, Shinagawa price, but if you want to eat a lot in a quiet setting, it might be worth it. I personally liked that they had barley tea as a drink option. Thank you for the meal!

Shinagawa Prince Hotel main building 4th floor, a buffet-style Chinese restaurant located (opposite to the regular Chinese restaurant "Shinagawa Taihanten" across the EV Hall). 8:35 AM - Long line at Sun Wukong (about 10-20 people). Mr. Y seemed to be in charge. 8:55 AM - Seated. Salad (lettuce, cherry tomatoes), scrambled eggs, omelette, boiled greens, water dumplings, ginger-flavored eggplant, steamed chicken, century egg, grilled salmon, stir-fried pork and Chinese cabbage (mostly bamboo shoots), steamed shrimp dumplings, shumai, mini meat buns, Shanghai fried noodles, apple juice, ginger ale, café au lait. Ice ready at the drink station is good. Take-out paper cups and lids available at the coffee station. Impressed by the cherry tomatoes being de-stemmed. Shanghai fried noodles not tasty. Greens too finely chopped, lacking texture and flavor. Didn't have to wait in line a year ago, but now with Chef F in charge, popularity seems to have increased. As a supporter of Chef F, it's a good thing, but waiting in line like this, is it worth it? (There was an issue that couldn't be mentioned on Tabelog, and the restaurant's response was unsatisfactory)

Updated in July of Heisei 29, around 8:30 in the morning, head to the 4th floor to "Son Goku". Breakfast buffet for 2500 yen. It was quite crowded this time, and they said, "If you don't mind sharing a table, we can seat you right away," and guided me to a round table. They had cherry tomatoes, mentaiko (spicy cod roe), pickled vegetables, kamaboko (fish cake), eggplant with ginger flavor, yakisoba with salted squid, dim sum (shumai, steamed shrimp dumplings), and mini meat buns. I had ginger ale, apple juice, and cafe latte. There were signs for soy sauce, vinegar, etc. at the dim sum section, but there were no condiments! (They were there when I went for the second time, so it seems like a mistake in replenishing). The drink options were abundant (pitchers of juice and a drink dispenser, coffee machines for lattes, etc.), and they even had ice, which was better than Panorama 33 and others. Even though it's a Chinese buffet, they only had white rice and congee. I think it would be nice to have fried rice as well. It would be more helpful if they guided the guests to their seats at the beginning. Overall rating: 3.1 ← 3, Service: 2.9 ← 2.8, Cost performance: 3.2 ← 3.1

Prologue: The deputy head chef at Yangming Palace, Mr. F, whom I had been supporting for a long time, was transferred to the head chef position at Shinagawa Prince Chinese Restaurant this summer. I rarely visit Shinagawa Prince (no overnight stays, only had tempura once for a meal), so it's a difficult place for me to go to. However, I had already informed them that I would be going during the academic lecture at the end of November. Since I couldn't meet F head chef at the cocktail party after the lecture, I decided to go to Sun Wukong on the 4th floor of the main building the next morning with the hope of seeing him. I tried to find details about breakfast on the hotel's website, but I couldn't find any information. On November 27th around 8:55 am, I arrived at Sun Wukong. I went down to the 7th floor, took another elevator to the 2nd floor, crossed the connecting passage to the main building, and then searched for an elevator to the 4th floor. When I entered Sun Wukong, there was no one at the reception! I walked a bit forward towards the seating area on the right, waiting for the staff to notice me. Soon a staff member in black came and handed me a large card saying "having a meal" and told me to sit at any table I like. When I asked if F head chef was there, I was told he was off that day (which was disappointing). Most of the 2-person and 4-person tables in the center were already occupied. I was allowed to use the round table at the back alone (which gave me a good view of the whole place and the staff's behavior). The breakfast location information mentioned that Sun Wukong was a "Chinese and Western buffet," but the options were limited. Mini meat buns, shrimp dumplings, shumai, water dumplings, Shanghai-style fried noodles, Chinese-style burger (mostly like a flower roll), dried radish, fried eggplant with ginger flavor, stir-fried pickled vegetables and pork (the most common was bamboo shoots). For drinks, there was a drink bar-like machine where I got orange juice, oolong tea, and ginger ale. Finally, I had coffee. There were also paper cups and lids for takeout coffee, but there was no indication, so it might not be obvious to someone unfamiliar (there was also no trash can). The mini meat buns, shrimp dumplings, and shumai were above average in taste and satisfying. However, the Shanghai-style fried noodles were disappointing (it seemed like they just put something that looked like fried noodles out for the breakfast buffet without much thought). The Chinese burger had almost no filling, so it would have been better to serve it without anything inside as a "flower roll." One of the few positives was the variety of soft drinks to choose from. Despite being a hotel restaurant, having a drink bar-like machine for soft drinks was considered a positive point, which reflects the overall situation. The two tables near me were already empty when I arrived, but they were not cleared up until I left, which was disappointing. I noticed some young male and female staff playing around instead of prioritizing clearing tables that were done eating. Personally, I am looking forward to having lunch at Dunhuang in Ginza, so I didn't mind the limited food options for breakfast. The breakfast cost was 2,800 yen? I don't want to stay at Shinagawa Prince again, so I don't think I'll ever use this restaurant again. I briefly thought about leaving a message for F head chef with the staff when leaving, but I realized it was pointless and felt a sense of loneliness as I left.

I stayed at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel in March 2012. For breakfast, there were 5-6 restaurants available in various areas (Main Tower, East Tower, Annex Tower). Since my husband wasn't feeling hungry after drinking too much the night before, he skipped breakfast, so I went alone to the Chinese restaurant "Son Goku" for a buffet. The spacious floor and tables created a tranquil atmosphere. It was my first time having a Chinese breakfast! They had a wide variety of dim sum such as pork buns, shumai, congee, yakisoba, as well as bread, rice, scrambled eggs, and other Western and Japanese dishes. I enjoyed a balanced buffet of Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine. It was a delightful experience to have everything served to me. Thank you for the feast.

It is a review of a Chinese buffet restaurant located near Shinagawa Station. The restaurant is open on holidays, with a fee of 2300 yen per person. The seating arrangement is spacious but the interior is dimly lit to save electricity. The service for refilling dishes is prompt, but clearing plates can be a bit slow. The restaurant can accommodate around 40 people, mostly in their 40s with a female majority. The food was average, with dishes like "Shark Fin Soup" having shark fin pieces in the soup, and dim sum tasting like cheap supermarket options. The "Chili Sauce Braised Small Shrimp" was good, although the shrimp used were disappointing. The melon selection was satisfying, but the reviewer recommends trying the flower rock sugar at this Shinagawa Chinese buffet. Some of the dishes that stood out were the sesame balls, stir-fried beef with seasonal vegetables, and the chili sauce braised small shrimp. The restaurant is located a 2-minute walk from Shinagawa Station, in the Prince Hotel Main Tower 4F. They are open for lunch and dinner, with no time limit. Smoking is prohibited during lunch hours and allowed in designated areas during dinner. There are no specific closing days, and they have a seating capacity of 150. There are no coupons available, but if you spend over 5000 yen, you can enjoy a 3-hour free lunch buffet. The blog has pictures of all the dishes served today for reference.

I planned to go to "Lux Dining Hapuna" at Shinagawa Prince Hotel with my junior colleague T, but it was so popular that we were turned away. So, we decided to try the Chinese buffet "Son Goku" instead. The lunch buffet costs 1,500 yen and includes appetizers, stir-fried dishes, simmered dishes, dim sum, and desserts. I was initially disappointed not being able to go to Hapuna, but Shinagawa Prince Hotel did not disappoint. The food at Son Goku was delicious, with dishes like yakisoba with thick sauce, sautéed scallops, herb-flavored sweet and sour pork, shrimp in chili sauce, shredded pork with green pepper, shark fin soup, steamed dumplings with shrimp, freshly steamed mini meat buns, sesame balls, and egg tarts. There were so many options that we couldn't try them all. Each dish was carefully prepared and very tasty. All this for just 1,500 yen. I think it's a great deal.

The price is only 2100 yen, but there is a wide variety of dishes and plenty of desserts. I went with a group of friends and we were able to enjoy multiple rounds of food until 3:00 pm. Alcohol is not included in the price, but overall, it was a very satisfying buffet. I liked it so much that I went back with my husband later.
