Best of the Buffetts I've been to in years. Clean, food is heat hot , fresh , large selections to choose from. They have sushi that is incredible. The staff if right there at the table if you need anything. They wear masks. The are friendly yet professional. I will be back but don't take my word for it.. come experience the wonderful atmosphere that isn't like a Royla Fork.

The ribs were amazing, food was very fresh. Just felt a little rushed by staff to finish. I know one couple who we’re getting there deserts got others in there seats.

Very good. They had a good selection of food. Sushi was good as well. The shrimp is well seasoned. They have a great selection of deserts and a chocolate dipping fountain. The staff were friendly and very attentive to our needs. Average pricing. Will come back. You are based.

Delicious hot foods in the buffet racks, Sushi is well made and fresh. Great price for eat in, take out tray can be unreasonably high. Easy parking, nice area in Lacey, very family friendly.

Got really bad food poisoning with my sister. Came in on a busy night too, never would have expected food to be “bad” on a day like this, when food is constantly being cooked/ remade. Maybe that’s why they were closed by Thurston county health….

Our first time dining at a buffet in quite a while, there was a great selection of food, for both adventerous people, and people who like to play it safe. The steamed buns were absolutly amazing. My only minor gripe would be the crawfish, it was a little bland, but thats personal taste, otherwise, an exceptional, affordable experience.

We thought this place was great. It had a great variety, and the food was decent quality. This was definitely one of the better Chinese buffets we've visited, everything was clean and neat and well tended. The food was satisfying, the wait staff were attentive, and the price was more than fair. The kids loved the different foods and the chocolate fountain.

We have been going to Main Buffet for several years. We have only recently been venturing out after Covid and Main Buffet was our first choice. Glad they are still here, hope they stay! The food was just as good as we remembered, especially the sushi bar, which is the best in the Lacey/Olympia area. The salt and pepper shrimp is awesome, but messy to eat, and well worth the trouble. Really can't go wrong, been eating here for years and is well worth the long drive (for us).

My family and I went to eat there today (3/19/22) I Grabbed a couple of pieces of chicken that go with the sweet and sour sauce and when I bit the chicken, the chicken tasted so bad. Like when you leave the chicken out for a long period of time and it just goes bad. I immediately spit it out told my husband and he told our waitress. As I walked over to get a different type of food because I had already eaten their broccoli chicken before that sweet and sour chicken, the lady tells the owner that the chicken was bad and he said something in his language, and she started laughing. Not only did they not remove the chicken to double check and make sure it wasn’t bad, they ignored what they obviously didn’t care about the well being of their customers. If I didn’t have the knowledge that I do about chicken and just ate the food, I would have definitely gotten food poisoning. So please check your food or maybe don’t go and eat there. It’s far too expensive and it isn’t worth getting sick. (Checkout the review about them being shut down due to not complying with heath regulations. I wish I would have seen it myself. I would have never gone)

Good food, steam tables could be hotter but not bad. Olympia doesn’t have much Asian food options. Thankfully we have at least the Main Buffet.
