Ordered online on 10-9-25. Came in and had two orders to pick up. The worker handed me everything and instead of giving me the bag in the other hand she put it on top of the box I was carrying and the bag ended up tipping. What was in the bag leaked all over in my car. When I got my food the breaded chicken for the sweet and sour chicken was soggy even without the sweet and sour. My black pepper chicken did not look fully cooked and there was a short black hair in it. Do not recommend this place.

Very disappointed. Food menu was nice if they had kept it filled. The staff vigorously sweeping around our tables while we eating. Customer service is non existent here. Handed the cash to Cashier. Cashier payed change on table rather handing back to me. No eye contact. Turns away when talking.

I’ve gotten food poisoning 2x from the buffet. Charged my daughter as an adult when she was 8 and argued that she was 9. lol. Just poor customer service and questionable food.
Good Chinese buffet. Very attentive to the food. Hard to get drink refills. Inside really needs remodeled. Building showing age inside.

The outside definitely needs to be more inviting. It looks like your walking into a hardware store.
The entrance inside is cluttered and there are boxes and cans stacked out in the open by the seating area.
It's not a warm environment inside either. There were few lights on. Everything is pretty dated inside as well.
I was seated quickly but none of the staff looked happy to be there. There were signs on every food station stating don't waste the food. They meant it to because there wasn't much food in any of the food trays at one time.
The food was good. I didn't have a problem with any of it. It was hot and tasted good. You did have to take small portions in order to not clean out the tray.
There two older staff , which might be the owners, had a loud confrontational sounding conversation right out in front where they could be easily heard.
It is pretty apparent this restaurant is in financial trouble. Not one person that worked there smiled at all. I felt sorry for them actually.
It could be a nice place but that will take lots of effort on their part to improve it.
One easy thing to make it a better dining experience would be to light the interior more and put on some music. Then have the staff at least smile and be a little happier. That doesn't cost much.
Take the elementary school level signs down and clean up the entrance area. Paint the outside a fresh bright color. Little things like that would help the business a lot.

I'm normally not someone who would go out of their way to complain, but this place has really gone down hill. When I was 15 (2015) the food was warm, and was good but now the food is cold, or there just isn't any food at all. I had my daughter with me and one a the waitresses was really bugging her to get her to eat her food, like she was getting close to her, and touching her food and basically demanding she ate. There is a young teenage girl who clearly doesn't want to be there, and lastly the staff argued with each other very frequently.

2hrs before close only half the selection was out. Never put anything new out to replace what was gone. They dont give two shits about it can forget about getting a refill. On a scale of 1 to 10 this place gets a -3.

Food is cold most days probably because it’s from what they didn’t sell the day before .. staff is horrible, rude And doesn’t seem to know what they want to charge you ! Can’t believe this place is even still open . You can definitely tell these people don’t care if you are there or not

Young Waitress i am pretty sure was stoned. Slow and could care less about anything
Most food trays were empty,low or dried out food.
That said they started bringing out fresh food and what they brought out was quite good

This place is terrible. Food is cold and dry. Plus the waiter took my plate out of my hands while i wasn’t gone. They threw the check at us and stormed off. And they also gave us all broken fortune cookies. Never coming back!
