Food is gross, like it’s been siting out for hours. My bf only ate one bite and I refused to eat anything cus of how gross it looked. We left right away but the lady still charge us 35$ even tho I didn’t eat anything. I complained. And she refunded my plate only. But my bf still had to pay cus he still took one bite.

I got really sick after eating here. Not sure if the person I came in with put something in my food/drink or whether or not something was placed in the food by the owners but someone definitely did something to my food/drink deliberately while I was at this restaurant as I was severely sick for a few days
The wontons did look and chew like they were made the day before
I worked at a Chinese restaurant with all these different buffet foods
I'm well aware of what they're supposed to be like directly after cooked
There were 3 other customers & none of them returned to the buffet to get food the entire time I was there
They all left after sitting there at least half the time I was there
I only ate one plate of food bc I already knew someone was going to try to get me sick

We came in right before closing, but she sat us anyway. The food had been sitting there for a long time. You could tell because the rice was hard and the broccoli was mush. We asked for water and she brought us bottled water and charged us $4 a bottle. If anything they could’ve given us half price since they were getting ready to throw the food out. We fixed one plate each and did not finish it despite being hungry. Not the best experience after a long days drive.

The food was not bad considering it’s a Chinese buffet in socorro, but they are over priced. The staff was not the most delightful experience

Not the most charming and modern atmosphere - but let me tell you the food and value make up for that! My brother (who has lived in China for the last 30 years) stopped here with his son some months back and told me the food is surprisingly good. He was not wrong! I stopped in on my way to a conference in Tucson and was really surprised at how GOOD the food and variety of food were! All you can eat buffet for $13 and this is some of the best Chinese food I've had in the state of New Mexico (and I've been to a lot). If you're in town and want to fill-up for cheap and fast, this is the place to go!

If you're up here for multiple days for Fire Training or training at NMT, keep going. Food was alright, very limited options. Sketchy ice cream situation, just two open wal mart containers with a spoon in a stagnant water cup.

I would definitely avoid this place. I have to admit, eating here is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine but I’ve stopped. The last time I went a friend of mine found metal wire in his chicken… On top of all this the lady up front is almost always going to try to scam you and up-charge you in your meal. I don’t understand how they’re still in business if I’m being honest.

Worst place I’ve ever eaten before, the food was disgusting, cold, and the restaurant was dirty, no restroom for the ladies, they told us to go into the men restroom and my daughter walked into a male worker using the restroom, overall a horrible customer service.

Food was cold to the touch and when they refilled my sweet tea there was tea floating in my drink at that point I got up and left

Cost $50 for three lunches at 11.95 a plate. Figured out it is because they charge for water because they give you bottled water. $3.50 per bottle of water and did not disclose that before so was completely unaware when the bill came. Extremely small selection. Veggies undercooked. Overall food tasted fine but not worth the money spent

Riley Witte

Very friendly staff, great selection. Not as big as our super buffet back home in Missouri but everything was good, and we didn’t try a thing we didn’t like. Our favorite dishes were the mushroom chicken, chicken on a stick, and sesame chicken. Nice Chinese background music and authentic feel. Don’t come here expecting fancy or posh, but if you are looking for good Chinese food in the desert you could do a lot worse 🤠🏜️⛩️
