The food was good but the service wasn’t. My friends and I went for a meal and the server didn’t refill out drinks she only refilled one. After we ate she didn’t even give us the fortune cookies. She demanded us to give her a tip. I believe servers shouldn’t demand tips. Customers have the right to give a tip if they believe their servers, service was good. Mind you the server didn’t even talk to us or acknowledge us until the end when we were about to pay just to demand a tip she didn’t earn.

Best Chinese for 100 miles around. Only thing lacking is loaner wheelbarrow to get your gut to the car after.

Really good, fresh buffet with plenty to offer.
The service is always great here the people are very nice and quick. It's a buffet so food will never be 5 stars but they do have some good food and they do have sushi and a Mongolian style grill here.

They have a lot of variety to choose on the buffet line from which is nice. Food from the grill line normally comes out overcooked though. Prices are reasonable for all you can eat. Staff is always friendly and attentive.

If you ever find yourself wandering aimlessly, stomach growling louder than a dragon’s roar, and your brain craving more than just instant noodles, then let me introduce you to the glorious, smorgasbord that is the Chinese buffet — a place where your culinary dreams come true, and your belt buckle might protest the next day.
First off, the entrance is like stepping into a treasure trove of edible riches. The smell alone is enough to make your nose do a happy dance — a tantalizing mix of garlic, soy, sesame, and something that can only be described as “what my childhood tasted like.” As you walk in, the sight of a mountain of crab rangoons glistening under the fluorescent lights is enough to make even the most disciplined dieter consider a full surrender.
The food options are so vast, I half expected to see a dragon flying by with a stick of spring rolls in its claws. There’s everything from steaming bowls of hot and sour soup that punch you in the taste buds (in the best way), to a sushi station that looks like it was curated by a very adventurous sushi chef with a questionable sense of risk assessment.
Now, let’s talk about the main event: the buffet spread. The sushi is surprisingly decent — I mean, it’s no Tokyo, but for a buffet, it’s sushi enough to pretend you’re on a culinary vacation. The General Tso’s chicken is crispy enough to be mistaken for a snack, and the sweet and sour pork has just the right amount of tangy goodness to make your taste buds sing “Hallelujah!”
And oh, the desserts! A kaleidoscope of fortune cookies, jello, and fried bananas that somehow taste better than they should. Pro tip: always save room for the fried bananas. They’re like little bites of tropical heaven, if heaven was deep-fried and dipped in honey.
Now, let’s not forget the entertainment — the endless stream of fellow diners, all silently competing to see who can pile their plates higher without causing a minor food avalanche. The best part? Watching that one brave soul attempt to carry a mountain of food and somehow still walk without spilling a single dumpling. It’s like a live-action balancing act.
In conclusion, this Chinese buffet is a glorious chaos of flavors, textures, and questionable health choices. It’s perfect for a cheat day, a celebration, or just because you want to feel like a king or queen of the food kingdom for an hour. Just remember to bring your appetite — and maybe a spare shirt, just in case.
Bon appétit, or as they say in Chinese, “吃得好,活得久” — eat well, live long!
