Evergreen buffet offers a quiet and relaxed dining atmosphere and serves usually fresh Chinese food in a buffet style. The staff, while not very infectiously enthusiastic or generally happy to be serving you, are very attentive when it comes to refilling your beverage. The food is very good when its fresh! Great seasoning and proper cooking technique. Unfortunately throughout the slower points of the day, food is not rotated or swapped with fresh food. Rather its left on the buffet to dry out. I have noticed that if theres something that you want that the buffet is out of or that is dried out and lack luster, you can ask the expediter who restocks the food on the buffet periodically. Overall Evergreen Buffet is a good place to go to get buffet style Chinese food in Kent, Ohio. (The only place actually.)

Well it used to be 5 stars until the recent change in owner.We have gone for yrs every werk and this year it has been once a month.We have notified staff the last few visits about the crablegs not being available and by the time they bring some out,they are water logged and or just not right.. everything else is about the best around!! We have been to buffets within 25 miles of Suffield,Ohio many times and for the last few months, they have gone downhill to where we go elsewhere now.We gave them plenty of input(kindly) many times.

Just ate dinner on Saturday night with my wife and two children and unfortunately we left disappointed. I should have checked how old the good reviews on here were, because there must have been some changes! The buffet was busy, yet the food all seemed like it was reheated from yesterday. Steamed dumplings were old and too tough to cut, and even the rice was not properly cooked. Chicken + broccoli was flavorless, Chicken + cashews had virtually no chicken. All that for $36 - we will not return.

Pricing is fantastic here. You can get two fully filled containers of food for only 13 or 14 dollars. The one guy who always works the counter is almost always rude and leaning against the wall, looking at the time. I gave service a positive rating because the cooks and other workers always keep The buffet fully stocked and fresh. They at least attempt to smile at you. The food is tasty. We choose this Chinese restaurant over any other one in Kent.

We have been eating there for a few years now. Used to love going there. However, over the last couple of months we have noticed the quality of the food has declined as well as the prices keep going up. They have even started to charge 3 bucks for a pot of hot tea that was previously free with your meals.Then the waitress brings us the check in the middle of our meal!!! I think we will be looking for a new chinese restaurant.

GO BIG or GO GOOD... They did neither. Mediocre dishes - not overly stocked, not overly nice. NOTHING worse mentioning, nothing I tried I had to go back for except Hot & Sour Soup - perhaps it was very good - or perhaps a lack of options. Either become a SUPER buffet or go the route of a dozen total dishes that are really good. Trying to keep up with 30-50 dishes when you have a dozen customers - doesnt work.

We go specifically for the Volcanic Three, which is sensational. The crab legs are usually pretty good, but they sometimes put out a batch that arent up to snuff. There are only two small hot food buffet tables, plus one for salad and shrimp, and a dessert table, so the variety is not great, and the offerings havent changed much over the years. The service is good, and the prices very reasonable.

Dirty, fried pot stickers smelled rotten. Carrots in the salad bar were all white and dried up how can you serve that. General So was dried and hard on the buffet. Dried food on wall in the booth I sat in, clearly saving that for later? Servers were not friendly and throwing things aroumd clearly dont like their jobs. Such a negative experience Never again

Terrible food. We went for crab legs and they had no taste. Butter? Taste like oil. Pot stickers were too hard to eat. When we ask the watress to get the manager, she said ok than came back and said he was gone. The nice guy at the register took responsibilty for the manager and gave us a discount. I actually felt sorry for the staff.

LOVE their food!! The egg rolls and soup are my favorites. There isare a good variety to choose from and always personable staff. I definitely have a crush on the one server, Paul. I always try to sit in his section, maybe one day Ill have the courage to give him my number and weI can be together ;-) HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!

Do not go here if you want hot food. They do not keep the food fresh or hot and when I asked for fresh tater tots of all things they straight up said no, and everything was cold, old and stale. The health codes are not being met here. Dont waste your time if it isnt noon when they first put stuff out.

Our family really loved going to dinner here until our last visit. One of our sons had a rock in his desserts. We quietly brought it to the staffs attention. They took it to the manager. He never came and spoke with us. We were not even given an apology. Very disappointed. We will not be coming back.

Very bad impression in my first visit. I have been to many Chinese buffets, and this one is the worst one. 1s of all, this place doesnt have much variety. 2nd food doesnt taste good! 3rd, an Asian waiter seemed very mean, ruined my appetite ! I will never/ever go to this place again!

Not bad for a basic Chinese buffet, but if youre expecting high quality look elsewhere. Avoid dinner. Its about 12 dollars a person and isnt worth it. Lunch is affordable at 8 dollars. The staff are nice, keep the restaurant clean, and buffet stocked. Overall, good on-the-dime buffet.

Dirty. Had to spit out multiple items into my napkins. Stomach hurt. Girlfriend had explosive diarrhea after. $25 for two buffets we each had one plate and didnt finish either. Water was warm. Total rip off. Do yourself a favor and stay home and get a pizza.

Went at about 6pm. Maybe a little early for dinner, but they definately didnt bring their A game. Seemed like all the food was overcooked. Crab legs left a bit to be desired. Server was overworked and had way too many tables to take care of us properly

While eating the power went out and did not come back on. They left the food out getting cold. I didnt want my kids eating it. They argued with me about a discount. Never going back. Someone will get sick there. Manager had no clue what to do.

Always clean, nice selections on the buffet, they keep the crab legs freshly stocked, and they give a free buffet to every 15th person to dine in. What a pleasant surprise! We eat here whenever were in the area.
