The buffet is a lot of cheap food to make. Soup looks stale.
Not much flavor which might mean it is trucked in and then reheated in Microwave

They have a nasty rude worker there and I’ve had several of my family members complain about this one older lady who refills the food trays. The energy in that place is disgusting because of that worker. I used to love this place until she walks around like she is better than everyone and giving everyone dirty looks ! It’s a shame because we loved coming here but we will not return no more.

I generally prefer to share positive feedback, but I was quite disappointed with my recent experience at this buffet. The food was lukewarm at best, lacking the freshness and flavor I was expecting. To make matters worse, I noticed a fly repeatedly landing on the sushi and dessert areas, which was concerning for hygiene. When I brought this to the attention of the front desk, I was told that because the door keeps opening, flies are going to get in, and that they do pest control regularly. They also said there was nothing they could do about the fly at that moment. While I appreciate their efforts, this explanation didn’t address the issue I experienced, and it felt like little was being done in the moment. Considering the price of $45.60 for two people, I expected a much higher standard of quality and service. DO NOT GO THERE!

Food had no flavor! Service was terrible and then they demanded a tip. You pay before you eat and then they bring the wrong drinks and they don’t know what’s inside their stuffed foods. Their wanton soup was like drinking warm water and the steamed wantons were over cooked

The best Chinese buffet restaurant around they have more food there than you could shake a stick at from a to z and the price is right you sit there as long as you like the service is awesome the food is excellent fresh I just so love this place so much I mean you can't eat enough I swear you can't for the money well worth it
I visited this place on Black Friday 2023. The place deserves more stars than what it has right now. The food was good. The cost of the food is not that expensive. Something like a balanced but modest five-tool player.

i don’t normally leave reviews like that. however i wanted to share my experience with this place. first off we were charged before we were seated like ok fine that’s one thing. the lo mein was the only thing that’s good. everything else was disgusting. i couldn’t even eat the chicken. before we left we were forced to tip them. i’m talking this one lady came up to us as we were leaving and was like “tip? tip?” even after i told her in the nicest way possible that i don’t have enough to tip. at the end my boyfriend was forced to tip them. almost immediately after we left i started to feel sick. i recommend yall stay away from this place unless you wanna get immediate food poisoning

Went for lunch for the first time wirh a friend who eats here all the time.. I was hesitant because I’d read a few pretty unfavorable reviews.. but decided to just trust my friends judgement .. well.. she was right.. it is very good for a buffet.. and contrary to some very negative reviews it is clean and there is a bathroom.. plus the service is great.. Realky the only criticisms I have are as follows;
1) very limited fresh cut fruit selection.. cantaloupe was good though.. maybe consider fresh watermelon and pineapple.
2) limited vegetables.. maybe consider adding bokchoy
3) ice cream machine was broken
4) cold egg roll
Lipstick on soup bowl
Overall.. great reasonably priced all you can eat place. I highly recommend it.
Can’t wait to go back when hopefully there will be more fresh fruits and vegetables. And a working ice cream machine.
Thank you! ?
I love their attention, their food and their desserts.

with all the bad reviews of this place if it was a year or more ago, I would try it again because it was closed for a while and they redid the place. Oh I think they did anyway is my first time here and we went today and the food was just amazing, and it was spotless. I would definitely go there again. soon

Food could have been better. But service was good, and the people were friendly. But not a good fit for me.
