I have had visited a ton of chinese buffets in small towns of the USA and found them to be borderline so so.It was refeshing to be here. The staff were always attentive and having fun. Manager lady was polite and the food was great. Wasn't thirsty AF after the meal so the use of msg was little or none.If I were to nitpick, the chow mein could have the egg noodles done thru a wok Instead. They were steamed by the restaurant, but at least a lot healthier this way.Would definitely come back

I haven't been here since pre-pandemic and this place seems to have upped a notch since our last visit.Buffet had a great array of dishes, including prawns, duck, chicken, wonton soup, vegetable stir fry, a salad bar, dessert bar, too many to list. Each dish was labeled and everything looked fresh and delicious. Empty dishes were promptly replenished, so no waiting for your favorite dish.We went there around 5ish and when we left around 6ish, the place was filling up fast. The place is huge, so no lineups.This place definitely merited the 5 star review!

Just ordered dinner for 4 and it was very disappointing no taste ,small portions

We've been long time customers but no more. Tonight's order was once again cold, the rice over spiced to where it looked green and was dry. The sweet and sour sauce was really watery and the coating was gloppy and looked like yesterday's leftovers. All for 65.00. It's getting way overpriced, even when eating in at the buffet and the quality is inconsistent other than being in a steep decline. So very disappointed in my once favourite treat.

What a rip off....don't go here ever. The food is ok but this is 80$ worth of food. The fried rice and chowmein come in 8" x 5" containers and were not stuffed by any means. The Wonton soup! Had 6 Wontons, two slivers of broccoli and one piece of carrott and the broth was very watery. Outside of the containers were greasy. Just overall poor. Before i wrote this i called to let them know. This is what they said "Can you re count the wontons please because we always put ten and the containers we have been using for 4 years. We can offer you a discount on your next meal" Quality Foods chinese food all the way!

We went there specifically for Dim Sum only to find out they do not offer it. They had two typical Dim Sum dishes served with the the buffet but that was it. The rest was your typical Chinese Food offering. Nothing special but not bad either. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive, regularly visiting our booth. The bathroom could have used a good cleaning.

There is a great selection of choices. Everything was fresh and delicious. Good desserts also. We were a group of siblings who met here from the Mainland, as well as various parts of the Island. We appreciated them letting us stay a while.

I was told by a friend that the food from here was good and prices were fair, but when I ordered delivery I was extremely disappointed. Portions were very small and food was very overpriced and to top it all off the food quality wasn't where it should have been. The fried rice was extremely salty, wonton soup was mostly watery broth with a couple wontons and the honey garlic pork had so much garlic that garlic was the only thing you can taste. The rest of the food was mediocre at best. There wasn't enough food to feed a family of 4 your better off ordering food from elsewhere.

The restaurant needs a overhaul. After being disappointed by the flavor of the food (salty and bland) and the portion sizes, I started asking around and everyone I talked to said "oh you went there"

Ridiculous portion sizes! When your as hungry leaving as when you got there that's your sign. Really salty and the wonton broth was like water. Not again!
