Don't order through delivery service! Small portions and took an hour to receive! Should have ordered pizza!

I don't know about the service or the atmosphere as I've never actually been here - We ordered on UberEATS and it was AWFUL. So we wasted like $60-$70.... We both ordered General chicken (Our favorite!!) I wish I could say I was exaggerating that it's quite literally chicken nuggets drowned in a VERY salty (not spicy... Not even a little bit spicy) sauce. One bite and neither of us could continue to eat it because it was so salty. I moved on to my fried rice which was dry and undercooked. Overall disappointing. We ended up throwing everything away as we'd both entirely lost our appetites at that point. The crab ran outta the goons, as we couldn't even taste it. The only thing remotely edible is the mousse we ordered and I'm 99.9999% sure it was a pre-made thaw and serve type dessert. Overall, in 13 states I've lived in, this is the first time I've thrown out Chinese food. Safebro to say it's the worst we've ever had and we won't be trying it again.

Food is sometimes good then other times its horrible. The rice sits out for hours and I've even pointed it out. As a restaurant doing a buffet, it's your job to keep fresh food out for paying costumers. I think more flavor and ideas and motivation need to be involved in this buffet.

Stop by this restaurant last night on my way to work. And I have to say in my opinion this is some of the worst rice I have ever had in my life. I have never had canned chicken, but this looks like canned chicken. The color is off the smell is off. The taste is off. I am well into my late 30s maybe even 40s but this is not about me. This is about the terrible tasting fried rice as they call it. The egg roll and the crab Rangoon were OK but this rice is horrible and I’m from the hood. I don’t know what this is. I’m so glad I had a couple noodles in my car for a back up one look at this one spoon of this and I knew it was not for me.

Very friendly service, the food was quite good as well. Definitely try the fried fish, I wasn't expecting it to be my favorite item here but it was fantastic. Only nitpick was how my table had a surveillance camera pointed right at it but I understand the need for them. If they were a little more discreet that would go a long way in improving the atmosphere.

I've had good things here and overall good experience but I got bourbon chicken this evening and unfortunately it was inedible. The sauce was decent but the chicken was way overcooked. A tough jerky consistency. Hopefully just a bad batch.

Food is always wonderful! We did have a light from one of the cameras inside shining in my husband's eyes; he said it was a little blinding. We informed the staff and were offered to change tables. Fine. But what about the next person?

Went on a double date last week food was constantly refreshed. Lots of options and everything we got was great. We didn't come to the restaurant before now so I have no reference. Our server was great my cup never went empty which is very important to me. We went around 2 and it wasn't busy but if you go during lunch or dinner its usually booming.

Eaten there a half dozen times since the buffet reopened. Overall great Chinese buffet. I never went during off hours but during dinner there is always plenty of really great options. Never tried sushi from a buffet, but the rest is pretty good American version of Chinese food. Service is great. Clean. Price is reasonable. Recommend.

I’ve been enjoying this establishment since it opened up. I cannot believe the friendliness that you are greeted as soon as you walk in the food is always hot and always fresh. The staff is just so welcoming and always trying to help my favorite Chinese restaurant.

The gal at the counter to take my order was super friendly with a smile that could light up a room. Very sweet young lady.

This is the second time we’ve been here for a second chance.
We ordered the orange chicken and my husband pointed out why we don’t like it.
Because where we lived before when we had orange chicken it had a gel type consistency sauce. This is clearly a sauce served over batter fried chicken. I can get the brand Crazy Chicken from let’s say Walmart and we’re going to get exactly what we’ve had before. Which is what we’re going to do next time.
I also asked for Chow Mein. That’s like an Oriental food staple and the waitress looked at the cashier like she was crazy when she asked if they served that. I SHOULD HAVE WALKED OUT THEN, but
I walked out of there with my so called orange chicken and will not be walking in again
