If you like tuff pork and a lot of mediocre food go there. It's cheap but not at all recommendable. The cockroach on the wall didn't seem to matter to the waitress. Please, don't go.

Went for a quick lunch after grocery shopping. We have been here plenty of times and have enjoyed it. Today the food was not at temperature and was cool. I mentioned this to the waiter who was a good server and very polite. Spoke to another staff about it. Never did a manager come talk to us and I stated this food is not warm. It was not just one table either. I told him I could not eat this as I did not want to be sick. I was met with "Sorry" when paying the bill as we did have drinks. No reduction in bill at all even after staying yet again the food was not warm. Again...met with Sorry. 40.00 and not happy. Please check temps on steam tables and check your food. Just because steam is coming out of the table, doesn't mean it's warm. I do not normally write bad reviews, but the situation was not dealt with.

I had an amazing time at A-1 Buffet in Sanarac! The all-you-can-eat option is a great deal, and the variety of food is impressive. Everything was fresh and delicious, especially the shrimps.
The service was attentive and friendly, making sure our drinks were always topped off. The atmosphere is lively, which adds to the overall dining experience.
I highly recommend this place for sea food lovers looking for a fun and satisfying meal. I can’t wait to come back!

Everything on the menu was so tasty. I wanted to eat more but my belly was full. There is something about the Mac and cheese that makes it soooo yummy.

I came here with family. We are vegetarian and then we were sitting, but then we were asked to go for buffet because they were busy. Unacceptable. They did not have many options for vegetarians in buffet. Very very disappointed.
Quality is mixed, depends on what you eat. Personally, I find their food too salty in general. An inexpensive place to feed a group any hour of the day.
A quick fill-up after a busy day when cooking is the last thing you want to do before relaxing. Food is very tolerable for a Chinese buffet and reasonably priced. Nothing fancy, just hot, fresh food with typical Chinese American appeal.

Food is great and inside the building is beautiful. Beware the fountain drinks are $4 a piece and not included with the price of the buffet. Children are supposed to be $8 a piece but they charged my 10 year old as an adult. Bill came out to $72 for 2 kids and 2 adults. Lady who works the front counter isn’t the most welcoming and comes off rude, rest of those working were very kind and helpful.

Several of the foods we all ate had a taste of chemicals. The food was terrible . Will pass on the feed back ourselves. Never going back
This is kind of odd that I'm giving only three stars for the food, because it actually tasted quite good. However, some of the items that were in warming trays were not warm at all. I think it would be a great idea for them to do a better job of managing the food that's on the buffet.
Further, the service was not great. Obviously, at a buffet you are not relying a great deal on service, but an occasional visit for a drink refill would be nice. There was none of that .
If the restaurant had been extremely busy and they've been short-staffed I would totally understand. That was not the case .
Having said all of this, I'm not suggesting that you should not eat here. I probably will again... I would just encourage them to perform better, especially on managing the warming trays on the buffet.

Very budget friendly, but be warned if you go around 1430hrs someone might be looking intensively at you so you don't take the supper food, wich is not labeled, to add to the excitement
