Shrimp on buffet was being kept at less than 100°F (145°F is safe for shrimp) which prompted me to check all of the other food temps. I was horrified to find that everything was barely warm. I am 8 months pregnant with a 3 year old, for our health we could not eat anything and management did not care. They were rude when I suggested there was something wrong. They spoke over us stating "our food kept at 200°F" which was clearly a lie and they would not walk the three feet over to the food and check for themselves. The waitress also lied about the food telling us everything had been put out fresh on the buffet at 5pm. We had arrived at 4.50pm to a full buffet and everything had a film on it from sitting out uncovered. The battered chicken was so tough I literally could not get my fork through it! This place is a food poisioning epidemic waiting to happen with unbelievably rude staff and management. I would advise giving it a miss and saving you stomach the pain.

I dont understand why this was voted Best Chinese Restaurant in town. It stated on their site they have a crab leg buffet. It was my reason I came here on Saturday and it wasnt one of the food on the buffet table. In fact, you had to order it as a side order and it is expensive. If you are thinking of coming here for the buffet, dont come here. Their selection is small and shouldnt be charge the same as other prices in town, food wasnt great, and I feel cramped in the buffet area. However, if you want to order from the menu and you are able to afford it, then this place is for you. The food from the menu is not the best nor is the worst. As for decorations, its a Chinese restaurant alright. Lots of red and lots of gold, good feng shui! People are friendly here and excellent service.

New to Battle Creek I hoped for a better experience than others had posted, but that didnt happen. If anyone can contradict this review, please, show me where they have a menu online.. We ordered a variety of food for take out (They do not deliver): Sweet and Sour Chicken- not bad hard to mess up Crab Rangoon- expensive for the quality received (imitation crab and raw onions?) Fried Chicken Wings- good, but these are hard to mess up Beef Lo Mein- I think I got angel hair pasta? (Lo Mein is supposed to be thick noodles) The interior looked nice, but Im not ordering from here again. Rule of thumb, if there are no asian people eating in an asian restaurant you are probably better off eating elsewhere.

Dine-in service was great, me and a few buddies went there right at the end of the buffet time,9 pm I believe, and it was pretty barren, but they told us that they would cook whatever we like (for the same buffet price) and they did! For some poor college students that was awesome. Only complaint is that when you order the food the person is kind of short with you if youre not 100% ready, but other than than that its a great restraunt with great food.

Ive been eating there for more than 20 years and watched the quality of food slowly decline through the years. Tonight I ordered 6 egg rolls with our food. When I got home we found 6 crab raccoons instead. I called and she told me to come back and get the egg rolls but then wanted to charge us for the crab rangoons that I never ordered. Im tired of lackluster service and sub par food from Tonys and after 20 plus years as a loyal customer Im done.

Small buffet is small BUT it is replenished with hot steamy fresh house made food on a regular basis... the way a buffet should be done. Could use a better salad bar and better fruit selection but with good staff and great service, typical Chinese interior design with the high back red booths, hanging lanterns and pix of large cities and of course a giant Urn/Vase thingy. Gonna go back during the summer so I can dine in cold A/C

Baaad! Hardly any food to choose from, buffet pan wernt filled up with constant fresh foods. Half the buffet pan were empty. My first bite of white rice was way undercooked. I feel bad for my girlfriend mainly... Had to edit this after I left. the cashier aswerd her phone first instead of cashing myself out. phone calls are important...

Been going here for more than 20 yrs and off the menu is just as good as buffet which is made in small batches to keep it fresh .The waitresses are right on the spot if not to buzy.Not a long wait and have made good friends over the years. And offers a ticket to be punched if you get enough punches you get free lunch or supper.

So I come in and order the buffet. It was at 1pm. The potatoes were old brown and crunchy, the mushrooms had been under the heat lamp for at least a day they tasted sour. Nothing was fresh and the price for lunch was insane $29 for two adults and a child. They have one buffet and salad. Horrible will not return ever!!

Every time I come back to visit Michigan this is a MUST have! Nowhere else does their Hot and Sour Soup or Lo Mein the same, and I crave it! Even tried recreating it myself and I just cant do it. Buffet means I can get unlimited helpings, and these two addictive items always seems to be on when I stop!

I use to love the place until my friend that use to work there saw someone in the kitchen drop an entire pan of chicken on the floor and then proceed to use the chicken. My take out orders have been incorrect and then i was treated poorly for asking for it to be corrected. Not planning on returning.

Horrible place. Some of the most terrible service ive ever experenced from a server named Tina who works there. "Extremely hostile" is the words I would use to discribe the perfromance of her duties as a waitress at this establishment. Needless to say I will not be returning with good reason!

My fiance and I ♥ this restaurant. Ive been going here for a very long time, and have tried other places in town throughout the years. NONE have been up to par in flavor, friendly staff, and service. Rated #1 and still accomplishing the dream. KEEP IT UP

Anytime Im in town, I have to eat here! I love the lunch buffet options, but my favorite dishes are the shrimp with broccoli and shrimp fried rice. The service is excellent and the staff always treats you as if they know you personally. Love it!

I ordered from the menu and food was good. Did not try bufet because it was nearly closing time. Hanging lights and decorations havent been cleaned in quite a while, very visible layer of dust on them. Just waiting for it to call into my food.

This place is pretty good. The buffet is good and a fair value. Pretty much the only Chinese place I will eat at. Not to sure about Sallys review below. There are way worse places to eat in this town. The building is old but the food is good.

The fish is good. Service and atmosphere is good too. Value is a little high and the selection is rather small. We only got turned down once at this place because the buffet wasnt ready yet. service: 5/5 atmosphere: 5/5 value: 3/5
