Jade Dragon Buffet offers a wide variety of food options, including fresh fruit and delicious baked salmon in a garlic lemon sauce. The buffet is kept quite fresh and features a great variety, from the fresh Mongolian to the sushi, Chinese food, and a big ice cream bar. All of the staff is wonderful and they provide excellent service. With a relaxing overall aesthetic, it is a great buffet and a new favorite for an Asian buffet, providing a good value for the price.
