Drive out to Monett, Missouri from Springfield based on a friend's recommendation. He wasn't wrong. Much better than any Chinese restaurant in Springfield. Definitely worth the 45 minute drive. Food was fresh and hot. Vegetables were not overcooked. They still has some crispness to them.

I’ve been coming here for many years and it’s safe to say this will be my last visit. Overall, the place is okay. The atmosphere is horrible. The tables are so close you can bump elbows with the next table. The place is so loud and cramped. The service is okay. The food is good which is the only thing saving it.

Got ac dripped on us the whole time we ate and found lettuce stuck to the inside of my cup. Server came to the table once right after we sat down with food. Didn’t even have a chance to mention the drip to the server cause she never came back to the table. Brought up the table being dripped on while paying and the employee said “yeah the leaks are bad”. Cool, I love that. Last few experiences here have been less than mediocre👎🏼

Solid spot for some good food. I got takeout and everything was hot, fresh, and tasty. The General Tso’s chicken was especially good — crispy with a nice kick. The staff was friendly and the whole experience was easy and pleasant. I’ll definitely be back when I’m craving some comfort food.

Our family loves this place. The food and service is fantastic. Don't forget to order some sushi while you're there!

It's a buffet. The food was ok. The chicken was good, most of the crab Rangoon was very over done. There were no bowls for sauce for dipping anything. I finally found some stacked behind the ice cream machine. Not very convenient.

The atmosphere was very family friendly. The wait staff was very attentive.

I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I happen to love this little buffet! They don't have a huge selection, but they have a couple of things that I just absolutely love!

I'm giving it one star cause the staff was nice. The food was not hot, kept running out, chicken wings tasted like dish soap. Over all it was like eating out of left over.
