We love buffet restaurants. So we love it! My officemates and I enjoyed the unlimited food and of course the beverages. The place is not so big and parking is a bit challenging.

The ambience is nice, the food was great it has many varieties unlike Yakimix in Dasma. I enjoyed the music (kpop songs) too while eating. Might go back again!

It was a good place to bond with tour teammates lol. O remember we called yakimix prime prior to our visit and they really catered us right. The food are great. I was so full! From filipino cuisine down to jap, chi, korean, mexican. Argh anything. Worth it!

They had a good assortment of prepared foods. The highlight was the meat you can cook, they were of better quality compared to regular Yakimix and had more choices. They are also open to reservations for big groups. Come prepared, there is always a long line. Best to come early

I come here only for three things: unlimited wagyu strips, sashimi and beer. And only those three things really earn it its 5 stars for me. I know it’s a buffet, but don’t bother filling your stomach with the many other selections which in my honest opinion are nothing special as some are either bland or overdone. Fine have a taste, but to get your money’s worth just load up on the wagyu strips which I like to cook on their pan for 10 seconds each side (salted, of course) and the sashimi which are served fresh and the all you can drink beer!!! Their desserts are also great—they have jelly tongue and twin popsicles which have been my childhood faves!

We’ve been here 3 times already and still we want to come back for more. Every visit there’s a new dish to try on. Their meat are so tender and juicy, sushi taste grate, alot of dessert and drinks to choose. stuffs/crew are polite and customer friendly. Not too expensive for buffet restaurant.
Our favorite are the sausages. (must try)

YAKIMIX PRIME
Bonifacio High Street, entrance beside Kabisera

It was an spontaneous dinner...

Not so much people around since its a Tuesday night.

Roamed around and decided to get raw meat for grilling...
There's variety of pork cuts and flavors, there are also fish and other seafood products cut and clean, there are also veggies for grilling and mushrooms are my favorites, and of course the slices of raw angus beef...

Swerte konti lang tao! Haha!

A lot of other dishes are served.

On the Japanese corner, there are a lot of sushi rolls, maki and my favorite sashimis which are refilled religiously.

On the Korean side, there are a lot of raw meat ready for grilling a d other variety of their dishes.

A lot of desserts and drinks are also available to choose from.

So if ever you drop by this area, visit the place and enjoy unlimited variety of food.

(Sorry, wasn't able to take a lot of pics coz I have a lot of gutom hahah)

After some time, came back and got some pics.

Overall, this was a fun and delectable Japanese dining experience. I liked that the staff are attentive and the chefs are close by to refill the food. The dessert bar is pretty basic. Ice cream, candies, halo halo. I liked the smokeless grill part the most. They have a lot of seafood which I suggest. You can also have them make your own ramen.
Reserve a spot for this place. It's better than waiting in line and missing out on food binging.

I enjoyed cooking my own food. I was so excited on what would be the result, i mean the taste. As I made my own seasoning, etc. Great place for eat outs. I enjoyed the buffet, there's a lot to choose from.

We had our post- christmas party here with my officemates the food is great their ihaw-ihaw meats, filipino foods, japaneese foods.

One of their best menu for those who loves maki there are different variants you can choose what you want and want to try, while rice lover will also enjoy lots of classes of rice.

Buko Salad, Vegetable Salad was yummy also for those vegeterian. Takoyaki is one of my favorite hmmn heaven! I ate a lot of them.

I just don't like their Halo-halo, the ice was big and not for typical halo-halo I suggest they will made for each person who wants to get halo-halo. Chocolate icecream was delicious also.

They have different choices of juices, I think it's Nestle cucumber and lemon flavor. They also have San Mig Light Beer.

All and all it was good and yummy serving.

Medyo maliit lang ang place nila pero okay lang dahil okay naman ang food and services.

Nothing's special with the food choices from below average to average. They've had a variety of selections from japanese to korean dishes and a variety of meat (plane and marinated), vegetables, sea food and sausages for grilling.

I couldn't mention all the food choices but here's some of the food choices.

Japanese:
Tempura (Shrimp, Kani), Nigiri/Maki (Tamago, Uni, Squid, ham and cheese, california), Miso Soup, Takoyaki, gyoza, sashimi (Salmon)

Soup:
Sinigang na salmon, brocolli flower (with bits of chicken)

Korean:
Japchae, kimchi rice, Different side dishes (green beans, tofu, spinach), Korean Patatim, Kimchi (Radish)

Raw meat, cold cuts and seafoods:
Beef, chicken, pork, prawns, fish, squid, sausages Fish cake, other marinated meats. @

Dessert:
Ube cake, blueberry cheese cake, ice cream, other dessert samplers, fruits (honey dew, melon, watermelon, papaya, kiwi)

Beverages:
Soda (pepsi products), Juices (Red ice tea, cucumber lemonade)

There are still lots of other food choices from their buffet. I recommend trying the japchae, Shrimp, tamago maki, brocolli flower soup, Korean sides as tofu and green beans,takoyaki. You could also try their marinated meats for grilling.

Though we quite enjoy our food, our request to surprise our friend with a birthday song from the staff was not accomodated and the staff that we had our request didn't even bother to come back on our table and arrange it for us. She even turn around when she sees us coming to the door on our way out.

I suggest that you had your reservation a day before your plan dining.

I wasn't able to take pics 😓

its been a long time since my last buffet dinner, now, i swear, imma stop and never again. maybe its the time or the age or the metabolism, but boy oh boy was i full, too full, up to the brim full.. about-to-puke full.. just. plain. full! the offerrings were mostly japanese cuisine (duh, hehe) and tou have a choice to grill yer own food or pick out from their ready viands. overall, it was okay, some were tasty while most were bland. i was succesful in scavenging for an ovo-lacto-pescatarian fare however most of what i had in my plate failed to amuse my palette. if it wasnt for our team party, i wouldnt have enjoyed as much as i thought i would when inside a buffet place,i mean for the price i expected a lot but yet in the end if the day, it was just okay.

It is called Prime but the selection is still beaten hands down by the Greenbelt branch. However, even if the selection is limited compared to the other branch, I still and forever like Yakimix. It's one of the first buffet I frequented years back and it is still satisfying.

Thee is WAGYU thin slices in Prime and a good selection of Japanese cuisine. I totally am for the salmon sashimi and the kimchi craving was really satisfactory. I just thinks the dessert area needs more selection too. Can't wait for my next visit though! 🤗

Very good location since it's near BGC offices. Place is not that spacious so if you're dining with a big group chances are you'll end up on separate table/s. Lots of choices especially on the grill and maki section compared to other Yakimix branches. As always, you have to wait for the tempura section to be refilled. Food is okay but not spectacular. Their miso soup is too salty for me. They should also focus on cleanliness especially on the drinks section which smells really bad.

We went here earlier this day for lunch together with my gf for our post anniv celebration.

Highlights of our eat was the grill where the meat is fresh, my only comment is that sometimes it takes time to be refilled specially the USDA prime beef.

We also had their sushi, its filling but its kinda ordinary. I'm also expecting some tuna to be served but they dont have any.

The gyoza here is awesome!!! Maybe the best of the food they serve. Will definitely come back for this. They made by order so its fresh and they deliver it on your table. You have to wait a while though

Desserts are limited and doesnt stand out for me, so I wont comment that much.

For its price definitely worth it! Will definitely go back.

Yakimix Prime is my favorite buffet restaurant because of its wide variety of choices (e.g. meat to grill) and it is a step fancier than other branches.

Sadly they do not serve Wagyu Beef during lunch anymore. 😞😫

Been here thrice and it's my favorite branch! Although it's too far from my place, I still consider this to my friends.

There were diffirent kinds of food. You'll probably get confused because you don't know what to eat first. Unlike in Moa, there were only few food so I couldn't enjoy my time.

The ambiance is classy. Though the space isn't that wide. People seemed to enjoy eating their food.

However, when it comes to greeting the birthday celebrants, they should have more energy. They seemed tired and lacked of energy.

Anyway, I'd still want to fill my tummy here! 😉

Been here twice already and somehow I feel that the food selection is quite limited. The place also has a gloomy feel to it (poor lighting, maybe?).

Food wise, I super love their crispy salmon skin (reminds me of Irvin's salted egg fish skin chips from SG, but flavor is a bit different).

I have been here twice and its my unforgettable place for me because i have celebrated my birthday here.I loved the way they greeted me here with matching song and dance number of the crew members😍😍

I really love seafoods and pork also..especially if it is a grilled one..I love grilling because it gives me an extreme happiness and you can eat the food while it is still hot😍😍

The food here is generally the same as all the other Yakimix buffet. The sushis are very delicious and fresh. The takoyaki and the ebiyaki I didn't like because it had a texture that I did not like. The noodles are just ordinary so I do not order it much. The meat for cooking are very good. I like that there are many flavor options and seafood as well as vegetable options too. Their side dishes are just ordinary but I personally liked their wasabi potato salad as it had a kick to it. Their lechon kawali was also very good! As for their desserts, it was also ordinary.

The servers and waiters were very accommodating. I had my phone lying around the table and one of them guarded it until I came back (which then I was instructed to care for my items). They were nice when we asked them to start/lower/off the grill.

My main problem was their cleanliness. I was one one of the first people in the restaurant and the first to get sushi/sashimi and when I got to reach for a sauce platter/bowl I saw that one of them still had wasabi in it. A lot of them had the soy sauce stain still in them. So it was my 4th try I got an acceptable cleanliness of a bowl to put my sauce. I hope they cleaned it better, especially since they have a break in between meals to cook and for preparation of the restaurant. I hope they fox this next time.

I will keep coming back here because they have good food and their setting is a bit fancier than other restaurants but this is due to the city they are in.

A dinner night out with friends from our office, turned out to be a night out of fun.

The buffet had a variety of food, not quite as much a I expected, a little less than I would normally say from the usual buffet but they had a all types of viands.

The fun part is grilling your proteins in front of you, as well as the option to choose food that is ready to eat.

Different types of cuisine to choose from; rice, pasta, fruits, salads, soups, sushi, dessert, and beverages as well, from plain ice water to sodas, juices, to beer!

If your celebrating your birthday with them, they'll sing you a song and give a slice of cake to blow your candle.

The service was average, and the food refills are a bit slow, I just wished the air conditioning was a tad stronger. 

Over all is was a feast most affordable for everyone.

Much better than other Yakimix's around.
Even as the upscale version, they're still so slow in refilling or even putting out a larger portion of sashimi out there which is one of the bad things about ALL Yakimix in Manila. 

There are way much choices to choose from in Yakima Prime which is the only redeeming factor in comparison to other branches.
The service do not really get in the way of customers which is a plus.

I would come again to this branch.
Way better than any other Yakimix branch out there.

It was my boss' last day at work and he decided to treat the whole team to a dinner buffet after work which was really nice of him. I swear, he is the best boss I've ever had!

The place was a step fancier than any Yakimix outlet they have that I've been to. But I guess fancy does not impress me as I didn't feel comfortable too much.

Food selection was quite limited and not everything on display was available. Drinks was included which was good and they had many options too.

I just love the part where we grill stuff. And customize our own dipping sauce for the meats. Still a good experience but I'd still choose any Yakimix outlet than this one

It's mom's birthday. For Php588.00 each we had lunch at Yakimix Prime in BGC. They have nice interior. Shining and shimmering ceiling. Combination of bright and warm lights.👍🏼

I was an early bird and started my buffet journey. With the name of Yakimix PRIME, I am expecting something different here compare to other Yakimix because the word "PRIME" is there. But unfortunately there's nothing special and it almost the same and "parang nakukulangan ako, compare with other Yakimix. Parang ang kaunti ng food nila... like that"😩

I asked the server what is the difference of Yakimix Prime from other Yakimix, he just told me "the location is BGC sir" and I laugh... "Malaking NYEK!" 😂

If I will going back again with this branch? Maybe if FREE! Lolz... 😂

Thumbs up for this buffet grilled restaurant. Variety of foods and drinks and great taste of sweets. We enjoy grilling the shrimp and all kinds of prime meats. I love also having the taste of Japanese cuisine. We will go here again without hesitation.

Looking for a not so expensive barbecue buffet? You should consider coming to Yakimix Prime. It has a wide variety of meat, seafood and vegetables to grill! They even have tempura (which is a bummer as the tempura station gets emptied quickly by patrons faster than you)!

I didn't really notice a huge difference between the regular Yakimix and their Prime version other than nice chairs. Perhaps food choices are different?

But it's cheaper than the other buffets. So that is a plus.

Sorry for the ugly picture! It's the only one with food!😅

My friends and I went to Yakimix Prime, well because you crave for buffet spreads every once in a while....

It was a veritable war zone! There were so many people and food was the enemy!!!👍🏻 All stations were brimming with food... Fight!🙌🏻

General tips though:
1) They tend to hide the wagyu. You must ask for it. They have it, the staff just doesn't serve it.

2) They have tons of shrimp tempura available, resting at the back. Again, you must ask for it. They cook it constantly, so there should a steady supply...

3) Be mindful of the scallops, they cook fast and burn easily.

4) They do have beer and drinks available, part of what makes it "Prime"... But don't fill up on these, make room for the food!!!😊

5) Stick to ice cream for dessert, buffet places are notoriously bad when it comes to cakes...

6) They have tonkatsu, ramen, gyoza, takoyaki-- all made to order... Have a go at these!😃

7) Sorry, but forego the Filipino section... Not one of their strong points...

Have fun with your friends and remember to pace yourself!😁

Got the chance to stumble upon this place since me and my friends are looking for a buffet place in BGC. The ambience is great and the staff are attentive at all times. However, there was little separation between yakimix prime and yakimix itself; well maybe the wagyu and a few more options to choose from the buffet. Food was ok but I can name a couple more buffet options that are better.

Sushi's are a must try here and the chance to actually cook your own food. It is also budget friendly so I can't argue with that. Quantity over quality i guess. Will definitely come back to this place though.

Yakimix Prime is a better version of Yakimix because of additional buffet choices like wagyu. This is a great place for food addict who care more on quantity rather than the quality of food. Sushi is great and worth it but I wouldn't say every food here is perfect. Good place for get together but they need to add more choices if they want to keep up with other buffet competitors.

Still one of my favorite japanese buffet, the highlight is still wagyu and the bacon wrapped mushrooms which is a classic , the dessert is normal but i really like the popsicles, the ramen is not really commendable not at par with other ramen houses, all worth it nonetheless.
