Was a little hesitant based on prior reviews, but glad I came!This no-frills chinese buffet has hit-or-miss specialty items/seafood, but the "chinese takeout" fare is solid and provides a lot of value!Celery chicken is good, the General Tso's meat-to-batter ratio is very fair, and the string beans are decent. It is unfair to compare this place to a high-class buffet, but it is equally unfair to say it is one of those "health hazard" places too.If your goal is to fill up on chinese takeout, this is your place!

The staff are friendly and nice and the server was also really good but the food and drinks were terrible. All the deserts taste as if they are made with some sort of keto bread that has no substance or normal texture. The food itself was also not so good, a combination of stale or not fresh items combined with recipes that just do not taste right. It’s a very cheap environment and not very large, even one of the desert machines was out of order. This place is not worth a visit, there’s no way they can think there food taste normal….. ?

This was my first time visiting this buffet today. I must say I was impressed. They had a very nice selection of food. The staff was very kind. The only negative thing I have is all of the food was not hot. However, it was alot better than my recent buffet experiences. I will definitely give them another chance. I recommend them.

Came here for brunch with my sister thinking of a different restaurant. Came inside it was beyond fresh and clean. Bathrooms were super clean. It’s a requirement for everyone to use gloves at the Buffett. The food was hot and fresh and they were steady refilling everything. 4.2 out of 5 stars.The fried chicken could’ve been cooked longer a bit undone and the fried rice was a bit dry could’ve used some soy sauce.

Hot, fresh food always. Buffet is well kept, and more than safe to eat from. Excellent service also! I particularly love their fried drumettes and wings - delicious!

Delicious. Sanitary and my father's favorite place to eat, he passed away 02.22.2021 ?Will forever hold ? precious memories of daddy. It's bittersweet. But I feel his presence enjoying our meal with us. Thank you for your excellent service. ?

Food was great everything was cooked exactly on point ... 1st time .. and won't be the last ....

Very good food selection and food is fresh. Nice staff.

It's been one year the last time I ate here.The food was so delicious like always,it's a clean restuarant and great service.

Worst place ever, very expensive not worth it, and not a lot of food to choose from the buffet, no desserts, the fruit is very bad they only have 3 different types of fruit to choose from, the pizza is hard as a rock, the soups are nasty, old building and smells bad, specially the bathroom looks very scary, the toilet has mold on it, the sink is dirty, I do not recommend this place to anybody... I will never go back to eat again in this restaurant
