About Driftwood Great Chinese Buffet

Driftwood Great Chinese Buffet offers a standard Chinese buffet experience, reminiscent of the early 2000s, with a variety of typical options. The breaded meats can sometimes be soft, but the octopus is reportedly good. Veggie and fish options are plentiful. Veggies tend to be softer than desired, but still taste good. Desserts are standard, including jello, nanaimo bars, carrot cake bars, and ice cream.

The decor is underwhelming, giving off a mall cafeteria vibe, and the seating arrangements may remind you of a school cafeteria. The staff are friendly, but can be confusing in their appearance and actions. The price is around $35 per person, which some may find pricey for the amount of food consumed.

The restaurant has a cat robot that can be sent to your table upon request, making it a kid-friendly and wheelchair-accessible location. Parking is abundant in the underutilized mall. The cat robot and the attentive staff contribute to a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, making it a great spot for a family dinner or a fun evening with friends.
