I do not normally write reviews but I could not let this one go by. The food was absolutely horrible. I was afraid to eat it because I thought I would get sick. The food was barely warm and was dry, like it had been sitting out all day. The fried chicken tasted like fish, I am assuming because they cooked it in the same oil as the fried fish. They did not come by and pick up the dirty plates from our party of three. I had to stack them on a different table. The sauces were separating. They had a water like substance pooled up on the top. The seafood smelled awful and the baked fish looked brown. All the utensils looked like they were purchased back in 73.There is more to tell but I will not waste the time. What amazed me the most is that the staff gathered for dinner at a table and brought fresh food out from the kitchen. They did not touch the food in the buffet. I cannot stress how horrible this place is. BEWARE!! And, to top it off they charged me over $12. I should have went to a real restaurant. It was in a way, small time robbery. The health department needs to SHUT IT DOWN!!

I love this place especially the Jalapeno Chicken, Japanese Chicken, Grilled Green Beans, Breaded Shrimp and Medium Prawns. They always have cold Sing Tao Beer. The price is fair and the atmosphere is standard for a reasonably cost Chinese buffet. The service is great especially "Elaine" she always makes sure you have a new cold beer! My children love to get the chicken nuggets, tatter tots and cherry & lime jello. The place in not fancy but the food is hot and consistent quality. I have visited at least (5) times and even stop for the lunch special. Ive witnessed a couple wedding parties and lunch crews having meetings which means its a great place that supports its community and I really like it and my family loves to visit.

The people were friendly and polite but not particularly interested in working. The service was, to put it lightly, was pathetic. Three of us were seated and there were only place settings for two. Had to steal a set form another table. Empty plates stacked up while staff walked by frequently. Once seated you were on your own. The food was edible at best. Most of it was like warm to cold and dry. Obviously it had been out for a while. What food that was fresh and hot was good but not much of that happened. For a restaurant that stays open till 10:00, youd think thered have more fresh food on the line at 7:00. I would not recommend this place. I have it one star because 0 was not an option

Me and my roommates move in the Lancaster commons. We decide to try this place after we put things away at home. As we where sitting and eatting. The waiters just keep stared at us behind where they bring the dishes. They seem to want us to just leave. Not friendly. Also I dont think they clean their ice cream maker. I had ice cream cone but I had to trow It away. It tasted like sour milk. Me and my roommates are not coming back. If they cleaned the place. Cooked the food better so people dont get sick. Changed how they treat people. I think they might do better.

Nothing,to be honest,they really need to improve their customers services, the food,taste not like what I thought it would be. It was my first time being there,and it will be my last. Above it all my husband was food poisoning. Never seen a restaurant with sign,about how not to waste food? I feel it rude and offensive. The restroom,oh I really rate this restaurant 0%.I got stomach pain,I felt really ill just right after eating. Soup are just like waters,no taste. Pls. Improve everything. #RealTalk #HonestOpinion.

This is the worst place ever! The food is bad as well as the service. The waitress basicly through our straws and drinks at us. They didnt have a big variety of "Chinese" food. It tasted poorly. The food looked like it has been sitting out for days. Someone could have gotten sick! With the way it looked. One question I have. Why the eff is this place still open to the public!? It needs to be shut down & replaced with schlotzskys sandwiches. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I would recommend Tin Tin

The food was good, if a little cold. The restaurant was relatively clean and organized. However the most unpleasant bit was the unfriendly service. The server was short with us, and the checkout person wouldnt say a word to us. In the parking lot an Asian woman with poor English yelled at us to just go home and then got back into her vehicle. Overly strange experience at this restaurant as a whole, cant say we will be back.... Let us know when you get more friendly staff and a new manager. Thank you.

No one speaks English here. I told them something was "empty", thought I was ignored, but then they brought me a pot of "tea"--- which is not free by the way. I told 3 different staff that we didnt order tea but no one understood. Service is lazy, had to ask for refills and tell them when things ran out. Some of the food appears to be from yesterday- see photos. Will update tomorrow to let you know how sick it made me.

The Food was okay it could have been better. Most of it wasnt very hot. The person bringing more food out was a little pushy. The restaurant appeared clean. The restaurant needs some updating and the buffet needs to be rearranged. Its very crowded trying to get food. It would be very difficult for a wheelchair to access the food. The Christmas decorations are still up which is odd its already August.

When i go the price is good....they put out very little food especially during busy hours so all employees are scrambling to get food out faster instead of tending to tables...i have never gotten a free drink there always charged for all drinks and refills....they do need to have more chineese food and add to thier menu oysters(one of my favorites)....would go back but only for shrimp

They stalk and circle around watching you eat, and then on top of that I was eating and a cleaning lady slaps her dirty rag over the divider section almost smacking me in the face, repeatedly!!! I said "Im eating can you please wait?" And she said "No. You go." Ummm tried to complain but no one there cared. 1st and last time I eat here! They give Chinese Buffet a bad name.

This place needs to be closed down. The food sucked had bones in food all most broke a tooth off, was not happy at all. Had sweet tea and couldnt stand to drank it. Never had sweet tea that tasted like that ever, I had to have them bring me some water. I will never go back there. And there hot sauce and peppers have no covers on them they looked nasty as heck.

I felt like the food was for a good price. Its a buffet so of course its not going to be a fancy 5 star restaurant. Its a good deal for what you pay. This place is reasonable. Only 7 for all you can eat lunch! Its only 2 dollars more than a five dollar footlong at subway....but you get more variety, more food, and free drinks...I think its worth the extra 2
