My first opinion when I came into this place was that for $14.99 I am either going to love this place or hate this place. Food was ok. Crab was meatless. Sushi had been sitting there for over an hour so I did not try it. I tried one raw clam and the meat was not firm. It was soggy/limp with a very intense taste and indicative of it having been not recently schucked. I will admit I sampled much of the food having gone back 5 times. Before I finally decided to call it quits I decided to try the dessert bar. HERE is where everything went south. COCKAROACH decided to walk out of the tray of mini chocolate mousse cakes that I was about to take. Upon further inspection I noticed the piles of cardboard boxes that were piled around the dessert bar. Its known that cockaroaches love cardboard boxes. They lay eggs in them. So why pile cardboard boxes around the dessert bar? I will not be a returning customer. Beware.

Having eaten there a year or so before, I knew the food was not the greatest, but we were hungry and in a hurry and the "China Grand Buffet" was 30 seconds away. Other than some tasty cheese wontons, the only reason I got full was I kept trying different items, hoping that each item would be better than the item I ate the forkful before, but I was constantly wrong. The sushi (yes, I should know better than to eat sushi at a Chinese buffet) tasted bland and the rice was kind of hard. I left over most of the dumplings, shrimp, and everything else I tried. The best item was the almond cookies, and they looked store-bought. By the end of the meal, we both had stomach aches which lasted into the night. Though the people working there were polite and helpful, the ladies room was a mess and I was told the mens room was disgusting. I will never eat there again no matter how pressed for time I may be.

I prefer the "take-out" option because I like chinese food leftovers, and I think its a reasonable price. The sushi is pretty decent as well, which is impressive for a buffet. My favorite food selections are the coconut shrimp, honey chicken, and noodles (lo mein & mei fun). But I usually save that for later and enjoy the fried foods first. Theres also a round sponge/cheese cake that is delicious for a light dessert. The location is easy to get to and the staff is friendly enough. I hope they continue to do well so I can keep getting awesome fortune cookies. :-)

If you respect your stomach and have any taste at all avoid this place. I am so angry at myself for coming here and not reading the reviews first. The service is rude and brusque the pickings slim and the quality of the food was very poor. I feel as if I was ripped off but Im too much of a gentleman to make a fuss. The only thing I enjoyed was the tea. It is now an hour later and I came back to edit this review. I feel sick to my stomach andI can only imagine what the sanitary conditions in that restaurant were.

First off this place was horrible! There was large party in the back with a whole bunch of rude obnoxious kids running around screaming and the staff did nothing about it! Second the food was absolutely horrible and stale third the waitress barely spoke or understood English and would stand and stare while we ate. Cost 70 bucks for 4 ppl and was absolutely not worth it. Ended up making everyones stomach upset..Do not waste your time your health or your money!

Worst place ever, expensive for the little they offer, there are only 3 tables of food, for the money they charge you, youll expect a lot more than that, I paid 73.00 for 3 adults and 2 kids which I wouldnt care if they had more to offer. They dont care for customer service at all I guess a "thank you for coming" as you walk out is the least you expect at any restaurant but not here, they barely speak English, trust me dont go to this place youll regret it.

I have tried this buffet 3 times in the hope that it would improve or perhaps they were having a bad day(on my multiple visits). I have tried dinner and lunch. They are both equally terrible. The food is so low quality its offensive, the staff is inattentive and the place looks like a rundown retirement home. A complete failure on all fronts. Stay away from this place and find another buffet. There are many good ones, this is just not one of them.

If you love chinese food, please do NOT go to that buffet. Why? Service is poor, food is greasy and servers never smile. I skip any kind of details because it was horrible. I was charged US$21.00 for 2 ppl @ lunch time...to much money for that worth...what a mess!

I have been eating here for many years and just found the food to be O.K. Today I found a long black disgusting hair in my food and thats it for me. I didnt have the time to bring the food back but I did take a picture. Stay away from this place!

Stale, bland food, very disappointing. Looks like they recycle their food, doesnt taste fresh. Waitresses looking at your table to see how much tip you leave for them. Kind of creepy. Dont waste your money here or risk food poisoning.

Very good place with very fair place. Compared with other Chinese restaurant here, they are the really true Chinese flavor with cheap price. I often go there with my friends and my family. They really cook good food best ever!

The waiters there are useless, they brought me the wrong drink and didnt speak clearly or loud enough for me to hear. The food quality is poor, and some of the food not cooked proberly. Never coming back there again

The Asians watch you like a hawk and also rush you to get out and leave, what a horrible experience and I would never attend there again, the place should be automatically shut down, I dont trust them at all.

Dont, just dont. Steamed rice was dried out and crunchy. Sea food smelled old and over fishy. Chicken was over cooked. The only thing that was good was the vanilla and chocolate soft serve ice cream.

Bland and tasteless Chinese. A good deal if you want soggy king crab legs. Mostly all shrimp dishes are shell on. Had no problem with servers clearing table or bringing a pot of tea.

Not much of a selection. The food wasnt so good. And the sushi selection was extremely minimal. There were no signs of what was what and nothing looked identifiable
