this place ROCKS! Was very surprised to read a couple of negative reviews. Friends and I have been going there for lunch for years, started going when they were at their previous location. Weve always been pleased with the consistency of both the service and the food quality. Most definitely my fav Chinese food buffet by far... do not pass on the coconut shrimp or the peanut chicken. And all the standards are good- egg rolls, broccoli beef, fried rice, etc. Hibachi grill is just OK, but who cares??? The other stuff is so good, why take up room? Stick to the buffet and the sushi, youll be a happy little camper!

If I could I would give this place no stars. Went in and had what it look like a 7 to 9 yr old girl seat is and serve us. My boyfriend, our son and I only are 2 bites of our food and it tasted wrong. We immediately asked for the check. We hadnt been in there for 5 minutes and explain to them that the food tasted undercooked and they still charged us over $40 for 2 adults and one child. I strongly recommend not going there, unless you want to eat uncooked/old food, and if you want to eat at a place that ignores child labor laws. King buffet needs to be reevaluated and shut down.

Fowl odor when first walking into the front door, both very young daughters working the front desk & cashier. Last week I ordered Moo Goo Gai Pan and had only mushrooms, carrots and celery for veggies, so I ordered chicken cashew and found out they put two pounds of celery in the meal??? I asked what items had Chinese vegetables like water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bock choy and they said they did not serve those type vegetables in their menu. Very disappointing. Upside, the place appeared to be very clean, food tastes good & ladies are very nice.

The food was delicious and the staff was friendly! I definitely would recommend this place. The only thing I didnt care for was some of their items were a bit on the sweeter side, the crab rangoons, the crispy peanut chicken, and the coconut shrimp all were yummy but would be even better if they toned down the sweetness just a tad. Great sushi for a buffet too... again the rice was on the sweeter side though. Maybe they just like things sweet because the waitresses are just too sweet too ha ha! But yes, go eat here :)

Not so good like used to be; they do not serve any more fried dumplings with soy sauce, something so traditional en every chinese place! FOOD CHOICES VERY LIMITED for to be a chinese buffet. The servers/helpers never know what the place cook, if you ask a question about what is or how is made they do not have any clue and the worst is they answer it in rude way...As many chinese places they cook with a LOT of MSG (monosodium glutamate). Desserts variety as so poor!.

It’s a good place to eat. Not a large buffet so not too much of a selection. My 1 year old only ate watermelon because that’s all they she she would eat. Coconut shrimp was delicious. My husband was freaked out though because they won’t put the rice in the pan. It had plastic wrap on it and he said if the rice can’t touch the pan somethings wrong (he was just being funny) family ran and owes. Nice little place. 2 adults and my 1 year old was only 26.50

Stopped by for lunch. Was a good deal for 6.95 $. Thought we just have a quick snack. Service was good and friendly. Had Sushi first and it was good. Some soup after that and it was very good. Then I tried the Hibachi grill. It was ok, but we had better before. Then I tried different entries and they all were good as well. I would go back. The price is right for what you get. They need to work on the grill though.

Great food Have had take out a few times and also the buffet. Plenty of variety ! If you want your food hot hot than order off the menu or get take out . Only bad thing NO DELEVERY! Why???????? You guys could make a lot more money! Especially from me! Pricing also needs to be updated as well on the online menu

Food is great, service is great. The prices posted to Google however are incorrect. We got a bit of attitude when we pointed this out. I suppose thats understandable, but it was not our fault. They did give us a discount though, which was pleasant. Really is a nice little place :) Ive posted a picture of their current menu.

Used to love the place. I have frequented since they were located just over the green bridge. Today I am sad to say I may never return. Food choices limited, cold spring rolls, cold most everything. Not the fresh homemade quality of days gone by. Greasy fish, under cooked chicken wings. Good bye

Ate lunch & dinner at this buffet. Food is OK, but food on buffet is NOT HOT. If you must eat there, do lunch. Supper is different as food has been sitting there all day....soup was greasy and luke warm. Nobody speaks English. You only get 10% Senior Citizens discount if you ask for it.

We live close enough that this is our local Chinese restaurant. Its always good. Theres a nice variety in the buffet. The staff is fast and incredibly friendly, always a pleasure to have. Parking isnt a problem and its never too crowded. Easily one of Palmettos best kept secrets.
