I’ve always enjoyed the food here. On Saturday evenings it is busy, that’s an indication of how good the food is.An hour drive, but good food is worth it.Parking: Handicap parking in front.

Most reasonably priced buffet in town. The service and food is excellent. Very Chinese-esque atmosphere as well.

The food area is always clean and a the food is always kept fresh. There is always a good variety of food choices. The only thing I dislike is their chicken noodle soup. You are never made to feel like you have to rush through your food. Prices have raised a bit but not as much as McDonald's and fast foods have risen.Parking: Large free parking lotKid-friendliness: Plenty for kids to eat... even pizza!

I like this place now. It used to be horrible 9 years ago. The frying chef is very good and it's chicken nuggets are crispy unlike other Chinese buffets. The chicken schnitzel with sause is quite good, same as spring rolls. In all, their frying technique is worth mentioning! However, to my disappointment, the pork fillings of the steamed buns are getting smaller. I still think it's good when you are hungry.

About once a month I like to come here for lunch. I will say from the outside it doesn’t look promising. The large parking lot has a lot of trash in it and the signs are peeling and faded. Inside the place is large and clean. Workers seem to moving non stop making sure the food is fresh and everything is clean. I especially like the peanut chicken and the cheesy broccoli with crab meat. Some of the beef can be a little tough but the flavor is nice. I like their large variety of options.

Hey! This place is great! All standard Chinese Buffett caveats apply (come when busy, it ain't gourmet...). Everything I tried was really good. In between the 1st and 2nd pass, several items that were low were refilled. I absolutely would come here again if I'm ever in Champaign.The best parts? First, they have an apple pie dessert that goes well with the soft serve. Second, the guy who was my server was great! Friendly, quick and did a great job.

This is my favorite Chinese buffet I've found so far. Every other time I've been here, the food has been the absolute best I've had, but tonight it was just average.Prices are pretty much in line with every other Chinese buffet, staff was very courteous and attentive. The restaraunt was clean and organized, buffet looked well kept.Overall 4.5/5 stars. I can't knock a full star off bc of one underwhelming visit, I'd definitely recommend it it anyone.Parking: Has its own lot

Food is awesome, unfortunately the hostess forgot my coffee.. The men's restroom is absolutely disgusting, but the atmosphere is otherwise above average.
