This is a love it or hate it type of place. There is no in between. I go for the unlimited chicken wings and I know that I'm getting value for money each time.

It was our first time here. Overall the restaurant looks very dirty. Restrooms are filthy. Food was very basic. We had fried rice that tasted burnt. I let the waitress know and she went to see the lady about the problem. All the lady did was go see the 2 bowls of rice in the buffet and did nothing about it.
We went to pay about 30 minutes later and they still had not changed the bowls. After telling the lady at the cash, I was told I was exagerating!!!! I don't understand that people give more that 2 stars to this place!!!

The dining experience was quite pleasant, with a wide array of flavorful dishes. The atmosphere was inviting and comfortable, contributing to an enjoyable meal. Service was prompt and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. Each dish was prepared to your liking , showcasing fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. I would happily recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a satisfying meal.

Food is excellent, there isn't a big selection for lunch but what they have is good, wonton soup and egg rolls are amazing also can't complain on price, waitresses are very friendly. Parking can be a pain.

I couldn’t find this information online anywhere. If you’ve been looking for it too, here it is:
Open Tuesday to Sunday
Lunch Buffet 11am-2:30pm $12.95
Supper Buffet 4pm-8pm. $16.95

With that out of the way
 onto the review.

Jack Lees is the “greasy spoon” of chinese food. It’s a great little spot that has been around forever and offers decent food at a reasonable price.

The decor is Chinese themed and adds to the charm of the dining experience.

The wonton soup is a must. It’s a tasty start to your meal before hitting the buffet.

The buffet is under a red light to keep it warm. If you’ve never experienced the effects of staring at red light you will be surprised to discover how green everything looks when you walk away.

My buffet staples are the broccoli and bbq pork dish (it’s chicken now - it broke my heart when we went for dinner last night.), chow mein, chicken balls, egg rolls (I wish they had spring rolls and I wish they were pork and cabbage) and sweet and sour pork. The dinner buffet also has chicken wings. It’s ALL YOU CAN EAT. So you will leave full.

They serve coke and pepsi products and we paid $2 per can of pop.

They give you fortune cookies at the end of your meal and we always enjoy reading them to each other.

You won’t find general tao’s, almond so guy, or buddahs feast in the buffet, but jack lees is not a high end chinese restaurant. It’s also not going to cost $100 for your meal.
The food is standard American
Chinese food. It tastes good, it fills you up, and is a solid chinese buffet for the price.
The many regulars can attest to that.

My only issue is the bathroom. They are always clean, but they are a stark contrast to the dining room decor. If they upgrade anything it should be the bathrooms - so they reflect the rest of the decor.
The classic chinese style decor is part of the experience of eating at jack lees.

The offer dessert but we pass on the jello and rice pudding. (Green tea or mango ice cream would really be an amazing finish to a solid meal - I suppose one can dream.)

I recommend Jack Lee’s for the atmosphere, food and price.
