One of the best food I've ever had in a Chinese buffet and the service was great.

This was our second visit. The first time the food was average for Chinese buffet. This time the food was amazing . We were greeted by several employees. The food was hot and a lot of variety. Setting was clean and the wait staff were very attentive to our needs. We drove about 40 mins but well worth it. Great value and wonderful food. Top notch customer service.

Very good food and hospitality. I enjoy eating here! Sometimes I order off the menu, which has plenty of options, and sometimes I eat from the buffet.
Came here with pretty high expectations and I feel everything was met! Food was hot and fresh!! I love the amount of food at one time is pretty low, but refilled very often (helping maintain the freshness)! Service was outstanding! I don’t think I could even finish my drink before a new one brought. Same with empty plates, they were picked up pretty quickly! Loved the cozy feel of the whole building! Definitely worth the drive!
Came on a Tuesday for lunch. The price was a lot lower than I was expecting. I paid about $12

Chen and the boyz got this place in tip top shape. Seriously, great buffet and well stocked buffet. I am glad to recommend this buffet over the other one in town. Always friendly service and staff and priced well. Be sure to give them a try. You will be glad you did.

It's just your typical American Chinese restaurant. Had gotten new owners recently. The last owners were amazingly nice and got to know all their regulars.

Took my daughter, son and 3 grandkids here for my daughter’s birthday and ended up with all of us having diarrhea and a couple of us missing work. I called them to tell them and was told the owner was not there to talk to and was handed off 3 times not even knowing this. I had to start asking when they asked me the same question over and over. We have been faithful customers and all I wanted was our money back to take her somewhere else for her birthday when we were all feeling better. All of a sudden the owner is there and in the background telling the guy what to tell me. Yes at first they would give our money back BUT they would never serve us again, seriously!!! They were ready to through a customer away for $85.00 dollars but then he wants a drs note. We don’t do the drs for diarrhea!!! But when all 6 of us come down with the same thing right after you just know. And we would have to drive 30, 40 minutes back there to get the money and we paid on a card. Any one that would do this is not getting my Buisness. And if it happens to you just know what you mean to them. Good customer or not you mean nothing to them.
It’s really really sad when you as a customer means that little to a Buisness.

We got there just after the dinner rush, but the food was all fairly fresh. My first plate was kinda rough cause I happened to pick 3 things that had been sitting but round 2 and round 3 definitely made up for it. So long as it's fresh their food is great. The service was amazing very attentive server and we were there for a birthday which they assisted in, which made it all the better.

Insanely good food. I returned for seconds, thirds, and dessert. Each trip was greeted with fresh food. I wish they had a soft-serve ice cream machine.

The food was excellent, lots of choices on the Buffet, the price was quite reasonable...the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the condition of the building...while they keep the immediate dining area clean...the maintenance and upkeep on the building is badly lacking. A facelift or remodel would be amazing for the old tired building.
