5 stars based solely on pick up order(s),quality and QUANTITY are phenomenal compared to all other when I have ordered through a service(Uber Eats and Door Dash).
This restaurant needs to become a member of those services.
I can't review any parts of 'inside the location' items but I have bern told nothing but good things about those aspects.

The buffet had fewer options than most other Chinese-American style buffets I've been too. BUT it still offered a decent number of items. Surprisingly the items offered were prepared well and good quality, I mean, at least, a little better than most other Chinese-American style buffets I've been to. It's strange how the same dishes can be so much better depending on subtle cooking differences. I ate at dinner time.
Dinner, with tax, was exactly $15 for 1 person. The unlimited drinks come with the meal. This is a bargain compared to most other Chinese-American restaurants.
They had the standard orange chicken I believe, also honey chicken, General Tso's chicken, and baked oysters with cream cheese.
They didn't have Mongolian beef(I never bother eating it anyway), sushi, sweet coconut cream shrimp, crab legs(No crab legs the day I went there, Sunday), frog legs or hibachi. Their desert section has even fewer options than other such restaurants.
However, the price(includes drinks) and quality of food were awesome. The selection size was pretty tolerable. I looked at some photos from other reviews going back 3 years in 2022 and the buffet menu looks exactly the same as today September 2025. If they had sweet coconut cream shrimp I wouldn't have any hesitation or regrets coming here regularly rather than other CA buffets.

For how busy this place gets. I’m surprised they haven’t relocated to a bigger location. Usually good hot food. But if they set you in the middle of the back area, your elbow to elbow with everyone. It gets crowded fast. Especially with everyone getting up to access the buffet and coming back. Great service. Great food. I just order to go now. :)
