Original Oct/2014 review: Friday at 6 PM restaurant was full, just as its name states, however there was no food at all in the buffet! No noodles, no rice, no orange chicken and no soups?!?,Im sorry but thats unacceptable. Sushi bar had 3 old pieces of sushi left in a plate. I never in my life ask to speak with a manager. I did this time. He claimed they refill the food every 5 minutes which is obviously a lie since I was there for 36 minutes and nothing was replaced. I was in line to speak with the manager, so based on this experience, there were lots of people unhappy with service. Food was subpar at best, no good taste or good quality items. Buffet bar was all nasty and food on top of every counter. Restaurant looks dirty and shady. Its just a matter of time until the city closes this restaurant for health violations. Im going home hoping I dont get food poisoning after eating here. Do yourself a favor and dont eat at this place! Updated Jan/2016: Although my last visit to this restaurant was less than stellar, today I found myself around the area once again, and decided to give them the benefit of the doubt, and find out if there has been any changes since last time I was here. 6:58 PM on a Thursday. Today, there isnt a full house. There were only about 4 other tables beside me. The waiters were cleaning the carpet. I did my regular walk around the buffet bar. No food spill around its counter. Most all items on the table were properly labeled. I got a bit of everything to taste. Id say about half of the food was fresh, the other half wasnt as fresh, but it didnt seem old as in days old, it seems it just stayed at the bar a few hours more. Although I would prefer everything fresh, I do have to take in consideration that this is not a five star restaurant and it is a cheap Chinese buffet after all, so like another person wrote on their review for this place: you get what you paid for. Tonight my total was $9.70 for the buffet, and I do feel I got what I paid for. Thats the reason why I was so upset last time, as not only it wasnt worth the price, they were literally putting peoples lives in danger by cross contaminating items, and how dirty things were. I got to say today this place has changed. I wouldnt say they deserve that "A" that the health department has placed on the front door (which I really wonder how legit those grading systems are), but at least today I didnt feel as they deserved to be closed down because of health infringement. For those not sure about this place, Id say, give it a try, and see it for yourself.

This would be my first "review" ever.. And im only writing it cause i Just left this place, and i left there very dissapointed.... First, i hate it when half way thru your meal, a waitress is already bringing the check. Kinda makes you feel like they want you out or hurrying you!! There was a live roach crawling on the booth next to ours!!!! It was a pretty disgusting sight... I paid my whole check which was for 20.70 (an adult lunch and drink and a senior lunch a drink, its a whole .70 discount for seniors.SERIOUSLY!!!!!).. And i told the guy about the roach and he says "oh im sorry we will have that cleaned up" uhm by then the roach will probably have crawled to the food... Then he said "we have never seen roaches there" so, that kinda makes me wonder if he meant ive seen them other places but not there.. Either way this would be the last time i eat here.. (i wouldve enjoyed the tacos of cesina and salsita i made the night before, way much better and no roaches!!) you have to at least give it one star to be able to comment, so its not cause i thought it deserved the one star!!!!

4 people and a bill for $34.00 for dinner was not bad at all. Lots of choices for food from seafood to poultry and meat as well as dessert , salads and fruits. The chicken w shrimp in white sauce was pretty good and the spicy pork w peppers was tasty and had just the right crunch to it. Stay away from the salmon- too salty and overcooked. Service was prompt but we could use more cheerful smiles from the waitresses. Overall, for the price, I would recommend the place for really hungry people.

The food was horible!!! Disgusting almost going bad.The fried rice was slimy and sour. The salmon was hard and dry it tasted like it was cooked a few weeks ago. Food is not fresh and they do not have a big selection of food. It made my hole family sick... My kids were crying how there stomach was hurting so did mine. The sushi did not have fish in it!!! It was dry!!! They charged the tip into my bill. If I was able to give them no stars I would. This place should not be open.

Dont get discouraged about the 1 star reviews. I have been coming here for many years and for the most of the time, the food is decent, and the atmosphere is decent as well. There isnt a time where I see this place as off putting and revolting amongst other reviews, simply because there is no music and some of the people are mean. It is simply because, the Chinese culture runs different from our Western culture. They perceive the food industry differently than us.

Was good until my last visit(been here probably 8 times but wont go back). All of the chicken was hard and stringy. All of the vegetables were undercooked. To top it off the ice cream had actually gone bad and was sour. I requested a refund or a discount but the manager initially refused. I threatened to call the police over the spoiled ice cream and he agreed to give me a discount.

I find this place very nice. I like the food but my parents dislike this place. I like that one food it was like crab leg balls, I find those very delicious. I just dont like your ice cream because it has a rough texture. Later in the future you can take all the money I have. Ill be back probably on my birthday.

Its cheap like $8 during the week cheap so you get what you pay for. Frequented by tour groups so busy and food may be empty at times. Lots of msg, cheap greasy Chinese food. Not healthy at all or of quality. But you will get full some food not worth it like sushi.i wouldnt trust it.

Perfect buffet I have eat ever. From my oppion food here is much better than the buffet in las vegas Ceasar palace. I recommend the beef here at dinner time, maybe not fit american taste but I think most asian people will like it.

Ok kinda restaurant. It is run by Chinese with lot of food option. I am not a great fan of Chinese aroma food so not enjoyed to the best. Worth visiting if you look for budgeted buffet option.
