This was a standard Chinese buffet located in a plaza with ample parking. We went on a Saturday for dinner and it was busy. We waited in a short line, paid, and they brought us to a booth. They had a high chair available. The waitress asked what we wanted for drinks and we were on our way with filling up our plates. They do charge for waste and excessive food left over; the signs were everywhere.
There were plenty of options to choose from. The dishes were fully stocked except for one. They had the typical Chinese American fare as well as American dishes such as fries and chicken nuggets. There were desserts, fruit, and soup. A few of my favorites were the mayo shrimp and general tso chicken. The food tasted good, hot, and fresh. I deducted a star because the waitress never came back to fill up our drinks. My water was empty for most of my dining experience; I was able to flag her down after I was done eating to ask her for more water. Other than that, it was a fulfilling and unhealthy dinner; good for once in a while occasions. I definitely was tired after eating there from all the MSG lol.
First time in here and might be the only.
Firstly…if you’ve never been here, the food is pretty good..and the staff is attentive.
When you walk in…you’re greeted and then they have you pay ahead of time..at first it seemed odd because out of ALL the buffets I’ve been to, this is the first time I’ve ever had to pay in advance; other than say Golden Corral. Once I sat down, I realized why. I’ve heard of places doing this..but it’s never been made so apparent as they do. “We will charge extra for wasted food”..so that means if you come here and want to try something for the first time and you don’t like it..or you get your favorite item and it’s cold…chances are, your card will have a second charge on it from here. That immediately gets a star away..
Service was excellent..very attentive with seeing if you want more drinks.
Parking was great because it’s in a mini strip mall.
4.1 sounds about right..I’d give higher if it wasn’t for the obvious.

They take your bill without asking for it and there are times when they don't serve you as it is.
Vegetarian options: The vegetables sometimes come out crunchy because they looked like dirt or stones on the vegetables. I think they didn't wash them properly I think...

Been passing by this little plaza for years and never once I spotted this buffet before I’ve been waiting for a buffet to open so I can enjoy all the delicious food and this place is like a little rare diamond that I found. Food is delicious, hot,and ready to serve.

Food was old , wings had a funky taste. Shrimp wasn’t well presented or fried correctly . Fried rice and French fries were good though
We don't eat any (non-halal) meat, so we are obviously limited to seafood and vegetarian items. But we still come and enjoy budget meals sometimes. It's only 11 dollars per person. We get hot tea with the meal for an extra dollar. I don't know how they can serve all this food for 11 dollars. Quality is good enough for a Chinese buffet. Just for that alone they can get my 5 stars. But, they actually get it for their speedy table service.
Vegetarian options: There about 10 vegetarian options, most of which are vegan. Noodles, rice, Shanghai vegetables, spinach and cheese, grilled potatoes, strong beans, corn, etc.

Food was typical but ranged from room temp to just plain cold. Really wanted an egg roll but they didn't have them. The mussels were so over cooked that they were inedible. Go for the price (@$11...and you gotta pay before you sit down!) and the bulk, not the food.
