Dont know if its the soggy fried shrimp or the detestable service from one of the serveres, but I feel physically sick. My family came in whith the same expectaton that many chinese buffette deserve, okay food and service with a forced smile. The moment it came to pay the good people for their service, before I could finish the goey coconut shrimp on my plate, I was met with rolling eyes an exasperated breath from the female attending our table. Really, never in my short life have I ever felt so moved to write a review but I think it is required for this restaurant. I hope if you go to this establishment that you are met with better service than we have, but I will find it extremely difficult to darken the doors of this place. Tip the servers generously, less you like feeling like the scum of the earth. Thanks for ruining my night.

First I will preface this by I am a chef and have been professionally educated on food safety and handling techniques. There was only ONE entre on the buffet that was hot, I think it had just come from the kitchen. Everything else that i tried was cold or way bellow the health departments mandated safe temp for holding food (there was no steam coming from the steam table). One of the employees kept adding water to some of the food dishes and stirring them up. I ate one bite of orange chicken, 2 egg rolls, a bite of some random chicken dish, I was afraid to eat anything else. I explained while paying my 12.00 tab that the food was cold on the buffet and i couldnt eat b/c i was afraid to eat anything - the mngr said she would check the temperatures and charged me anyway. I got mild abdominal cramps 40 mins later

I dine this lunch buffet monthly. To Many Cuisines to mention to choose from. Cant beat it for under $10 or over $8 for Seniors w/o drink. It all depends on what u like to eat. Some plates are yummy or tasty or just OK or taste funny or I pass on or I dont like. But I know most ppl should try it u might just like it for the most part. Most if not all the food is not gluten free! Sometimes hot sometimes not. I dont like it that the salad bar has few choices for dressings or toppings. But there are options for different types of veggie dishes. The ice cream has 8 flavors. Atmosphere is quiet and pleasant. I cant call the staff waitresses or servers because they lack those duties even though u pay at table and they remove plates from table during ur trip for seconds.

Good place. I never give reviews, but I felt the need to do one today. Im not from around here and my wife wanted to eat at a Chinese buffet. Among the few here and the bad reviews I kept seeing, it made it hard for me to pick one. This place was actually surprisingly good considering the reviews. Very nice, polite workers. Hostess was very nice with us. Great variety of food especially seafood. The food was all hot, steamy, and the right temperature. Everything was clean. Bathrooms were fairly clean and had marble like walls and sink counters. Its a five star for its location, but I have to leave my five stars reserved for 5 star hotels in San Juan, Puerto Rico and Las Vegas.

I cant really say this place was bad. Their pricing was fine for the food. I felt that I could make better food at my house. Some of the food was bland. The place didnt look that clean. The table I sat at had been wiped, but the table was wet for about 15 minutes (until the water evaporated). Lots of ghetto people here so if you want to see a show, thats the place. The service was regular as any buffet is. Lady dropped off our drinks and refills were fine. I probably wont go back because the food is not memorable. Its NOT nasty or anything, its just something I can whip up at my own house. If you have a family of starving kids, take them there! Its cheap to fill them up.

The lady that serviced our table was a total snot. This place is HORRIBLE. The food is nothing special, but the service... thats something... If you count being dogged by the service person as if waiting for us to leave the entire time. I was brought the check BEFORE I even finished my first plate. Then when we got up to get another plate, when we came back the table was wiped down and our drinks GONE. Seriously?! WTF? We asked for another drink and the lady snatched the cup harshly and when she came back she set it down so hard it spilled a bit. This establishment needs to get their act together, maybe then the restaurant wont be so empty. Worst dining experience ever.

-Nothing really good nothing really bad, hence, the average score. -its 9.75 -with tax, drink is extra. -the food was ok, nothing stood out -the place was clean, the bathroom was clean, plenty of parking; -the service was average, nothing good or bad stood out. -its not a place that you look forward to go with family to go visit and enjoy "delicious" food. -its a good place to have lunch with your coworkers during work week.

Its really hard to have a buffet with good food but I have seen it done. Food was very bland in my opinion and there was only a few items that I really enjoyed I.E. the Honey Chicken and the Buttered potatoes. They took our plates and filled our waters each time we needed them too without asking though so awesome service. I also went at 12:30 on a Saturday so it wasnt like the foods been sitting out with no one eating it.

Great price all items are very good. Baked salmon is so so however. Sushi is good and way better than typical slimy buffet sushi (maybe like old Onami or Todai restaurants IMO). Ice cream bar there is also not usual for such a place. American food is also good quality. Place is busy but not too busy which means many others feel same way. Service has always been responsive and friendly.

I relied on reviews of this buffet restaurant. Here are my honest comments. The food really sucks for the price! The dinner selections are limited, tasteless and not fresh. It looks like theyre left overs from lunch. The ladies restroom is so filthy and sooo stinky! I will never visit this buffet again!!! Ive been to Pan Asia Buffet in San Marcos and this will never compare!

Try the honey chicken. Regular Chinese Food Buffet. People complaining here are snob reviews. I am just wasting time in the buffet trying to make more room for food. What do you expect just a buffet here. A lot of regular Chinese Food thats what I came for.

This was an excellent experience. The baked salmon alone was worth the price. The place was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the food was outstanding. Im totally puzzled by the negative reviews. Ill go back and Id take my mother.
