The employees are always super friendly and helpful. I love the option to get food to go by weight just in case I'm not feeling like sitting down and having the full buffet experience. A great economic alternative.

My family and I have lived here for 12 years and never knew this place existed! It was like walking into a restaurant in SF Chinatown, and right in our own backyard! The buffet selection is fantastic, with all your Chinese dish favorites, and some surprises. If you take-to-go, you pay by the lbs. so take care when you fill up; it is easy to want to fill up your box with a taste of everything! There is seating available too, with a private space for a large party.

I have always loved this place. It’s absolutely amazing, and the buffet is the best buffet I’ve been to in Humboldt. Sometimes the quality differs, so you need to go at certain times. Either way, I appreciate their service and the food is on point.

Probably the best bang for the buck as far as variety. I haven't had everything they served, but had most of what's available and it's mostly delicious. I spend about 20 bucks with meal prices and tips and leave full and happy. Not too many places in Humboldt that can beat it, without spending 2 to 3 times

This buffet is sure to always offer great food, and even better service. Their staff pays close attention with a caring attitude. Its perfect for casual dining, that always hits the spot. There's plenty to try and enjoy. From sushi, soups, protiens and desserts.

I'm not a big eater of Chinese food but I do like certain items. This place is okay but last time I was there, I saw a fly flying around the desert area. I thought that was not good but I don't know. Other than that, it's a nice and friendly place to eat with friends and family

Food is great. Break down as follows
American style sushi (California, Philidelphia, Alaska, rainbow Roll, etc): fresh, rice is right texture, seasoned properly, simple.

Dishes you'd find at Panda Express (Orange Chicken, Gen Tso, Mongolian Beef, etc): not too salty, meat is tender. About the same as Panda.

Dishes that excel: Sauteed Eggplant, Sweet and Sour, grilled chicken, Sauteed Clam, Seaweed Salad. The eggplant tasted like homemade Chinese food. The clam had no bad fish smell, super fresh. The clam quality is above what I can make at home. Their seaweed salad tastes straight out of NE Chinese restaurants. It's a niche dish that is served only in small regions of China, but found here.

Overall: amazing food for its price, much better quality and variety than Panda. Plenty of variety with some niche regional dishes.
