I’ve been here twice for the lunch buffet and it’s been pretty friggin good both times. They have all the buffet staples you’d expect at the main stations along with dim sum (love the shrimp dumplings) and sushi (the only sushi my wife will eat). The staff is on top of everything making sure it’s all fresh. We’re actually going back again tomorrow to try the evening buffet.
The receptionist never mentioned the cost for a Friday dinner, it was $35 not $25 as she stated over the phone, that's a big difference.
Epic food selection, very tasty, and so many varieties of food for diabetic people, vegetarians, and many gluten free options!
Poor food quality for many items and barely luke warm at best. The lobster pieces were so tiny and watery galore inside...a waste of time to even put on your plate. For the price, you'd expect better. You pay your money and you take your chances but we won't be fooled again.
Overall not a bad place for buffet, especially for the whole family. Then everyone gets to decide what they want to eat. Lots of selections - salad, sushi, dim sum, fruit, soup, Chinese chop suey, pasta, and dessert.Service is quite good. They replenished the food but sometimes they will rotate the dishes. For example, deep fried prawn may be rotated with popcorn shrimp. The best food is actually the dim sum - chicken feet are on the menu! The sushi is so so - the sushi rice too vinegary and too sticky for my liking. The cooked veggie are very greasy. Some of the BBQ meat (rib, pork) are a bit dry.The price is right for the quantity of food you get. Definitely a place to check out if buffet dining is your thing.
Great AYCE Chinese buffet. They have a wide variety of sushi (rice is a bit too wet), salmon sashimi, dim sum and amazing Peking duck wrap. Also includes an incredible selection of dessert and ice cream. Highly recommend this place!
The best buffet in Edmonton in my opinion. Lots of varieties of food choices. Dishes are always monitored by their staff to inform their kitchen to refill. Food is always hot and freshly cooked to refill. We love to go when there's Peking duck. Dim sum is one of my favorites in this restaurant. If u love seafood, you will love this restaurant - fried shrimps, crabs and squids are delicious. Friendly staff, clean and spacious restaurant. Highly recommended.My family decided to come back for buffet again today. It's cheaper price on weekdays.
We have ordered 3X now and it’s constantly very good. Beautiful chicken dishes, great veggies, noodles, lovely few dim sum items, everything arrived still crispy and hot. This is our new take out Chinese food place. So nice to have good Chinese food in the NE.
Finding a great buffet restaurant that has quality food and selection in Edmonton is as rare as finding a green eyed girl named Miao Yin. While the selection at Yang Ming was impressive, the quality was less than desirable and the search for Miao Yin continues for another 2000 years.Normally at a buffet, the key is to zero in on the more expensive foods like seafood, prime rib, sashimi and rare items not normally served at buffets to maximize your food to $ ratio. I was curious this evening and tried several different items to properly analyse the quality and strayed from the golden rule.During my visit it was packed and I didn't feel comfortable taking a bunch of photos with strangers in the background to show how vast the variety is. This being said, with a place this busy, the food turnover should guarantee some freshly stocked items from time to time. Unfortunately it wasn't and I felt a lot of the staple Chinese and North American items tasted awful if they even had a taste. After trying out several disappointing samples, I found the most enjoyment from the sashimi (if they stocked it, as it was sitting empty often), the dim sum items (especially the sticky rice) and the Peking duck wraps (if you can score the thicker non dried out cuts) and the BBQ ribsIf stuffing your face with over 100 different items for a fair price is your thing, Yang Ming is ideal. Just don't expect much in terms of quality. I did find it a good value for the items that I liked and would probably return for these alone.
While the food and selection was good, the price was not. Why it would the price be 6.00 more on Friday than on Thursday? Very good value our server said. Not! Unless you are a huge eater. Maybe spend 4-5 hours and have 2-3 meals. 29.95 for a senior is ridiculous. Seniors are most often small eaters particularly as they get older than 65. Return visits will be never.
