EVER HEARD THE SAYING "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!" WHAT BOTHERS ME MOST IS THE STAFF IS RUDE AND NOT ATTENTIVE, SEATING IS AWFUL, AND THEY EXPECT A TIP! NO WAY! I USE TO GO WITH A CO-WORKER FOR LUNCH...NEVER AGAIN. THE RESTURANT HAS A WEIRD SMELL AND ISNT VERY TIDY. OPEN YOUR EYES!!! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTURANT TO ANYBODY NOT EVEN A HUNGRY DOG! THESE PEOPLE ARE A BUNCH OF RIP OFF ARTIST! CHECK YOU BILL THEY ALWAYS BILL ME $1 OVER SURE $1 ISNT MUCH BUT IF THEY ARE GETTING OVER ON A CROWD THATS PLENTY. TAKE A LOOK AT MY BILL...I KNOW DAMN WELL THEY KNOW HOW TO ADD. $7.70+$7.70=15.40 NOT $16.40. THEY DID NOT DESERVE A TIP AND IF I WAS GOING TO TIP PLEASE DONT CON ME OR TRY TO STEAL IT FROM ME. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! I WILL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. FOOD-NOT SO GREAT ITS OK SERVICE-POOR VERY POOR! PRICE-CHEAP FOR A BUFFET. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME FIND A BETTER PLACE TO EAT. THE STAFF ISNT EVEN CHINESE THEY ARE KOREAN. DAMN SHAME THEY NEED TO DO BETTER! PAYING CUSTOMERS DESERVE BETTER SERVICE AND FRESH FOOD. I WONT VISITING MILLENNIUM BUFFET EVER AGAIN!!!

DO NOT EVER GO HERE!! I went here for lunch by myself and within 10 minutes these angry two Asian women kept mean-mugging and then set my bill down and mumbled something and would not come back! THE FOOD WAS OLD, HARD, AND AWFUL!!! I asked if they were going to refill something and they said "No more for you!" I got something different and had to track them down again to get a refill on my drink and she said "You eat too much... I charge you double!" WHAT!? I thought she was kidding until she went and changed my bill! I told her she was crazy and there was no way I was paying double at a BUFFET!! I didnt even eat that much!! She was just trying to get more money out of me! Thank God I had cash! She kept arguing with me and and humiliating me and i just threw the cash on the table and she told me not to come back!!! Worst restaurant experience of my life!!! If you can even call that pathetic waste of a space a restaurant. AWFUL!!!

I went there before attending a USC baseball game. Girl that let me in said I didnt have to pay to park if I ate, which had been the case in the past. The front had weeds that needed mowing and shrubbery that needed trimming. My granddaughter and I went in. I told the lady that I could not eat much because of a parcedure I had on my stomach and ask could I get a little bit and weigh it (like other restaurants do). She replied, "eat in or take out". I get maybe a half plate and a small tea and was charged $11 and change for it. Some of the food had been out for some time and the meat was dried out. When we returned from the game, one of the ladies was standing behind my truck saying I owed $10 parking and threaten to call police. I will never go back to this establishment again. They used to be friendlier, food was fresher, and they talked better English. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, period.

Very limited choices of food and theyre all COLD!!! Dishonest host - the receipt she printed has a place for tips but she has already added 12% tip to my bill without saying anything, then she just waits for me to tip her again on top of that! I only noticed it because the total was higher than expected. After confronting her, she said thats because people dont tip fairly - but for the entire time I was there, she NEVER refilled anyones drinks on any table, and most people left $1-2 tips per person - how is that not fair for the service and cost of food there?! If she wants to enforce a tip, she should at least put it in an obvious place (or just increase the food cost, cuz the food is not worth what shes charging anyway!), not charge customers a hidden tip that she never tells anyone!

They OVERCHARGE, for Dry nasty food. I thought it was a mistake the first time. I asked her about the overcharge, she fixed it... Went back another day and was overcharged again. They have some shady billing practices. They will rip you off. BEWARE. I gave one star because I had to in order to post this. In reality they deserve to be shut down. Nasty bathrooms. A sign at the desk saying they are not responsible for your car or any items stolen from it...What? Is it because of the homeless people they allow to congregate outside of their establishment? I am telling EVERYONE I know about their bad business practices. I am reporting this place to the BBB. They need to be shut down..

The lunch buffet has a large variety of food to choose from and is a great value. The lunch buffet with water is less than 7 bucks. Although they are usually busy at lunch, they do a great job of keeping the buffet stocked. Although some dishes can be greasy, if you pick carefully there are many made with high quality, fresh ingredients. Ive not had many items that were overcooked from having sat on the steam table to long. Ive always gotten good table service - keeping my glass full and have never felt rushed. For the price this isnt a bad place to consider. But it certainly doesnt rank among my top favorites which run just a couple of bucks more.

If you like chicken dishes this is the place, been there hundreds of times, they have dozens of chicken dishes and I like nearly every one. The rice is good, the egg rolls are good, the duck sauce on the fruit bar is delicious and the fruit bar gets rave reviews from my wife. Very reasonably priced and I have tried three dozen Chinese restaurants in town and always end up back here as it is the best. Not fancy by no means but if all you want to do is eat good food for a good price this place is it.

DO NOT GO TO MILLENIUM BUFFET! First of all the place never has any customers, and it is awkward sitting alone without music, listening to the servers talk in chinese. The food is mediocre, pretty much what youd expect from this caliber of a restaurant. Dinner cost me $9.25, plus tip out at $11. Honestly just go somewhere else, a bad awkward meal for the price of two at chipotle.

Worst dining experience of the millennium! After being seated, the waitress was on her phone the remainder of the meal. Refills were nonexistent and the cashier double charged the meal. The food is suspect and sub par for a buffet. Highly dissatisfied with this restaurant and would like to warn others to take their business elsewhere.

The food was nasty,dry and hard. The waitress was very nasty and was always mean mugging us. I got the cheese wanton frim the buffet and there was plastic inside it. Whrn i showed the manager she tried to explain how they were made. I told her that was no excuse for plastic being found in the food.PLEASE DONT GO HERE STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!
