Ok, lets be real here. The food is not, as another reviewer said, fantastic. Its buffet food. Typical american chinese food. Not anything special, not the highest quality, and certainly not 4/5 star worthy. It is the best chinese buffet in the area though. However, the sushi is never that fresh and the selection is poor and limited. I love sushi...but i dont eat it from here. The chicken dishes are pretty good. Some a lot better than others and some taste almost exactly the same. They also have a couple "american" dishes...pizza, roast beef, chicken wings. None of them are offensive, but theyre not that great either. As far as the seafood goes...the shrimp is usually really good, but the crab legs are AWFUL. So watery, you cant even break them in half. Once you do get them open water just pours out and the crab has zero flavor and a horrible texture. There are 3 (two sided) rows of food, a salad/fruit/sushi/shrimp area, and a row of desserts along the back. They have soft serve ice cream and a good selection of hersheys ice cream. They do need to change the water for the scoop more often though. Their other desserts are....eh. Rice krispy treats are usually hard as rocks and the cookies are either ok or horrible. In regards to the restaurant itself...the inside is fairly nice and big. The restrooms are sometimes gross though. The waitresses are usually very on top of things...drink refills and clearing plates. And the price is reasonable. Overall its a decent place for what it is and I do go there occasionally, but definitely not a fantastic restaurant.

The worst place I have ever eaten at in my life. 2 adults, 2 children $55. We ate very little and quickly left out of concern for our health. None of the food tasted "right". Alot of it appeared to have been sitting there since the start of the day. Glasses dirty and had lipstick on the rim. Silverware spotty and seemed poorly washed. All plates were wet. We spent 15 minutes total in the place. There was an ice cream scoop sitting in standing water. Murky water from previous dips. It seemed they had no intention of have the water running on it, as it was a traditional scoop bucket, but instead filled it once. The lighting was extremely dark, as if it was a way to hide the lack of sanitation the seemed evident. They seemed to care very little of how our experience was as we left very quickly, never asking how everything was. Avoid this place like the plague.

I went to this place today and the waitresses were rude... When the clients qalkwd passed with their plates they looked and laughed as if judging what they were eating. Of course speaking in a different language as if we couldnt tell what was going on... A couple of them were eating at their stations whaile getting drinks right behind the little wall while standing for all to see.... When a few people paid I guess their tips werent big enough theyd show the other people the recipt and then scoff....i will not return to a place like this where the staff is blantedly rude lime this.... I was uncomfortable the entire time.... I dont want my meal comped I just wont patronage of his establishment....

The food and service always good here, i have been coming to this restaurant for the past 5 years it always good and people always nice too. i see some others reviews just want to say something if u think it too pricey u could go somewhere else, the price they have here compare to other place is little higher but they have lot more seafood compare to other place that I have been to. I hate to see a good business to go down because some people cant get what they ask for when they think they are the customer they can ask or do anything they want, when they dont get what they want they just start posting worng things about the business. That happened to one of my business before.

My husband and I went here for dinner, got our food, and sat down (with our first plates of food) Every single thing on our plate was cold, so I polietly told out waiter, and he got the manager. The manager insisted that it was warm, and if ours was cold it was only because we walked around too long. I told him I would be happy to pay for one meal, but considering we each consumed just a few bites of food, I felt it unfair that I should be charged full price for two. He yet again insisted the food was warm and stared at me with annoyance. I just asked for my check, paid it, and left. I will NOT be eating there again.

Food was OK, service was good. $14.50 is a bit much, but they have some decent dishes, a lot of different types of chicken, shrimp, crab legs, rice, etc. Some dishes sit idle and old, like the egg rolls. Atmosphere was good, neat decor. Deserts were pretty common, a lot of different types of pastries, cookies, etc. Did not see any ice cream. They have kid friendly dishes, sweet and sour chicken, pizza, french fries, garlic bread, etc. I recommend avoiding rice/noodle dishes as well as vegetable dishes, and stick with meats if you can battle through the meat sweats to get your moneys worth.

Excellent food, but if you have a special need, dont expect the waitresses to meet it without a struggle. The manager, however, is great to work with and goes out of his way to be understanding and make things right. Best Chinese buffet in the area IMO. They also have take out at a reduced price, which is a cool bonus. I have never had a problem with bad food, insects, dirty restrooms etc. here. The only issues Ive ever had have been occasional ones with the wait staff.

I was here once and I am waiting to lose a couple pounds before I go back. The food is very good. I do not like sushi or at least I am not willing to try it but the people I was with said they had a good selection and that it was good. I personally really enjoyed the Lo-Main, seasame chicken, pepper steak, etc. Good service too, as far as filling up your drinks goes. I definately recommend it. It is around $7 for the buffet.

Very disappointed in the quality of the food. Some were okay, but my two biggest kickers were the Mongolian grill (no flavor, soupy, and the chicken tasted off. I couldnt eat it) and the ice cream stations scoop wasnt properly clean. Sat in a pool of water and multiple flavors of ice cream residue. The scoop rinser(?) is supposed to constantly flowing to ensure optimal sanitation.

Food was cold and tasteless and expensive at 4 oclock 11.99 plus your drink. Spoke to management his answer was been here twenty years never had a complaint. Did offer to discount the meal. I paid and left. I can assure by the lack of customers they wont be there much longer. Just awfully! First time in 40 years I have felt I needed to rate a restaurant. Best of luck.

My bf and I went shortly after it opened on a weekday... The food was ice cold.. Thier solution was theyd microwave it for us!!! We didnt even finish one plate each and had asked for our money back or even a discount and were denied. When we planned to leave the whole family/staff ganged up around the door as if we werent going to pay. Lol it was like a bad movie.
