They think everybody can’t understand them, but as I was sitting there, I caught a little bit of what they were saying. It was a lot of inappropriate words towards the fact I hadn’t tipped and were commenting on my looks.

Always good place to eat.

Acceptable when the food is fresh, more frequently old and questionable. Myself and others have gotten food poisoning from this location. Not a buffet, now takeout portions only. The owner will attempt to charge you astronomically more than listed, don't be taken advantage of.

Just what I needed before I left town.clean, polite, the environment was very open and friendly. I had the beef and broccoli & orange chicken made room for a little more with white rice. ? I will definitely come back.

The food here scares me.I used to think it was hit or miss coming here 50|50, probably more like 20|80 now with 80 being miss. The last 2 times here, some of the chicken I got had pink, undercooked, and super chewy spots in it.During covid, they got rid of the buffet portion, but I'm not sure if they've brought it back. But the prices went way too high for me to come back and check again, especially for the quality.That all being said, you should probably give it at least 1 try. You'll know whether you wanna go back or not.Parking: Plenty of free empty spaces. Since none are usually taken.

Hi folks. From 4 stars to 1 star. This is the first time I have ever seen a crash like this and I've written several hundred reviews. The last time we were was 2019. Back then they had a buffet with at least 50 items. Now there were 10 or 12. Last time there was nice lighting and clean tables and at least one waitress. Not so much any more. What they also did was overwrite the menu prices in pen. The food was warm at best and cold at least. Some of the food was watery! There excuse was they bought this from the previous owner. I suspect strongly that if they would make the effort, the customers would come back. Regards, OldeBear

Inside bldg, warm and muggy. Looks vacant at the host desk, walk up to a makeshift plastic curtain held with duck tape. As others said, server curt, in a hurry, doesn't answer questions well or at all. Not friendly. I was the only one there. No ice for ice water, buy a bottle. Lukewarm food, dried out, no flavor, drown it in soy sauce. Took 5 bites after $20 for food and water and left. Decided not to punish myself trying to eat the "food" on top of the wasted money.Was never a fan of this place, haven't been there I'm years till today. I used to get bent over sick after eating there. They've really gone downhill since my last visit.

First time here and it is disgusting food under cooked. $87.90 for $11.95 plates and 4 drinks. Only ordered 3 spring rolls got 14. She seen me calculating and gave more because I KNOW she over changed. DO NOT waste your money. You will regret it like we did. Disgusting people for doing what they know they are doing. 1 star is being generous.

I ordered 3 large box of food ($14), 1 egg drop soup, 2 sodas, and spring rolls. I was charged $70. This is not a real buffet, more like panda express. Overpriced and dusty inside. Go somewhere else. Perhaps the worst Chinese restaurant experience i got in my life! Just dont go to this place.

Very overpriced and the place is dirty. Pay in cash so that they will not run up your bill. Go somewhere else. This place is not worth your money!

We had requested 2 entree plates and I'm not sure if the server couldn't hear well or was confused or what. But she insisted that we select a 3rd entree. Our meals were very good though. The server was also acting very rushed, we were the only people in the restaurant.
