I don't eat at very many buffets, but my first visit to the generically named Asian Buffet, has me rethinking my dining options. For less than $13 on a Monday afternoon, I had a huge selection of hot soups and entrees. The place was clean and busy, so the freshness of the food was not a concern. I filled myself up with about 5 chicken dishes - General Tso, honey, orange... and soup and a couple of appetizers that I was too full to even attempt the Hibachi Grill, which is usually the highlight of an Asian style buffet. For about the same price as a Panda Express platter, you can eat to your hearts delight, so I'll probably add Asian Buffet into my rotation more often. read more

We used to love eating here. Especially our 1 night a week out... but I am afraid I can no longer support this restaurant. The really tall waitress has no manners and just raises her voice when she does not understand what was being said. Tonight, we sat in the room behind the counter, and she was so hateful to the customers, I am shocked they stayed. Their son, maybe 15 at most, ended up explaining what drinks they were requesting for a refill. When a child has to intervene because of the language barriers on both sides, that becomes a HUGE problem in my book, your job is to be there and help make their experience worth the outrageous amount of money being charged. SHAME ON HER! Before my husband and I could make it home, our stomachs both started cramping. Date night was spoiled by the food poisoning from our dinner this evening, while paying over $40 for dinner for 2. Just hoping to make sure no one else goes through this. read more

Sushi small most everything is deep fried and gross Place lacks veggies too expensive bbq ribs you could not chew habachi grill was boring won't return read more

A few things to say. First off, the food; the make or break of any restaurant. Great. The crayfish are delectable, and lo mein is nice too. Some grievances however, the fries are a bit undercooked, and having the ice cream just out like that isn't the most sanitary. I haven't seen much wrong with the service, the lady (or guy) at the front sits us down, and we get refills every once in a while. Then they hand us the bill, and that's really it. I like the string lights in the place, it adds to the ambiance. I always look forward to coming here. Will come agian. read more

Asian Buffet - Crab rangoons, egg roll, fries, and chicken wings. Lackluster plate, I know, but this is only food picture I have of this place - Buffets Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Haven't been here before and I always see this place since who know when. Decided to try it out on new year day and they had a special menu. For the cost, it wasn't too bad. The Chinese food stuck out more for me than the American food like prime roast. Everything was fresh and tasty. It was a good kind of busy that means the food is always cooking and there was plenty of seatings too. We sat at the very end in the next room where it was quiet and away from the buffet. It was nice. We would come back again. read more

Stopped in for lunch while playing at a nearby arcade. Buffets are great for trying a variety of flavors. I love buffets. Thank you for being a buffet. Having not been to a buffet in quite some time, I was feeling ecstatic at seeing all the options. Looking for my favorite dish, lo mien noodles, I spotted the dish and headed straight for it. Lo mien noodles really hit the spot for me. The great thing about buffets is the more than one trip. My second serving consisted of a fried banana, chicken on a stick, and a chicken wing. Jenny was my server. She was pretty and very observant keeping my glass of water full. Thank you so very much. That means a lot to me. Keep up the good work. The food, the restaurant, and the staff were amazing and I highly recommend Asian Buffet. Thank you for feeding me. 0:-) read more

I've been coming here a couple times with my boyfriend for both lunch and dinner buffet, and weekend buffets too. They have a lot of selection for the price. I love the coconut shrimp the most! Service is quick and efficient! They are quickly to seat you and clear your table and refill drinks. Everytime we come this place is almost always packed and they have plenty of tables across like three rooms. Buffet in the weekends totally worth it with several options of seafood and meats. Foods always hot and fresh! read more

Always good! Friendly helpful employees. Tables kept cleared which is a must for me at a buffet. Sushi is always fresh.

The staff was great. The food options are incredibly. The hibachi station and ice cream options are awesome. There is an entire section for appetizers. They could use more sushi and pastry options but everything else has plenty of options for everyone. During the diner time there were plenty of open seats and it was fairly quiet. read more

Best spot ever, genuinely the food is amazing. Amazing service too. 10/10 would always go back read more

Love bringing the kids here. The food is so good with a great variety! They are always so kind and you can tell many people love it. Vibes are right with this one. read more

Dirtiest restaurant I've ever been to and it smelled like sewage. I wish we had walked out. We will never go back.

This restaurant came highly recommended, however if I could receive a refund, I'd gladly take it. First off, the person at the door acted as if she couldn't care less whether customers came in or not. This was a very poor first impression. Why did t I leave then? Shame on me!!! She barely even directed me to a seat....no people skills...AT ALL!!! I will say my server was phenomenal! She was extremely attentive, kind and professional. I couldn't have been more pleased with her service. The food...well, another story. Just about everything I chose was not hot...in fact, it was barely warm. Are you serious? Maybe the burners were worn out...I don't know, but it was awful. I wonder if the food was hot if it would've made a difference....it was just that bad and several selections were flavorless... One thing's for sure...I don't plan on returning. I'm an Asian food connoisseur and I've had a thousand times better. It's a wrap! read more

Very clean inside but also quite dark. It definitely is decorated like a standard Asian buffet not modern in any sense, but the seating is spread out in a nice manner so that you aren't near a lot of people but are near the central buffet. The servers are very eager and fast to refill water and clear plates effectively. The food buffet area is maintained to cleanliness standards, and the options are presented nicely and are kept hot, but also it seemed they are removed and replaced frequently to guarantee freshness. The entire experience at Asian Buffet is exactly what you'd expect from just that, an Asian buffet. As for the food selection, nothing stands out as incredibly delightful, but also nothing stands out as bad, so that's good. Everything was pretty tasty and hot so, I can't complain, I would definitely return to this Asian Buffet again! read more

We had a nice dinner here. Great friendly service, decent prices, Pepsi products, fully stocked buffet with tons of options. There's hibachi where they made what you select fresh, and there is sushi. You can scoop your own hard cream for dessert or there are lots of other sweet or fruit options. Many of the standard Chinese apps and entrees to enjoy. Nice booths and tables to sit at. read more

I've ate at a lot of Chinese Buffets and I must say this one wins the blue ribbon. It's clean, spacious, friendly and most of all delicious. It's the first buffet and knew how to fix Egg Foo Young, my favorite. Several rows of food something for everyone. Always filled and hot nothing was dried out. Crab Rangoon was also. delicious. Several types of soup some I had never seen before. Everything looked delicious and inviting. I went during lunchtime and no problem being seated. Only $11.95 for the buffet, unbelievable I was expecting possibly $18. If you're hungry for great Chinese food in a pleasant atmosphere this is worth the drive no matter where you live. read more

Have visited now a 2nd time. We like this buffet pretty well, both the buffet and the teppanyaki grilling station has good variety. Check. The waitstaff has been quick to get us seated quickly, with our drinks waiting for us, refilled repeatedly, and check delivered at appropriate times without waiting. Check. The only thing we both commented that we thought could be better thought out and more hygienic is to not require everyone to bend way down into the ice cream cooler, using the same ice cream scooper, sometimes struggling to be able to dig in enough to get a scoop. We also don't exactly like the idea of bending your torso over 4 tubs of ice cream and god knows what is falling off the chest, face, hair of myself, or others, into that ice cream. I understand it's a buffet and certain things fly out the window regarding hygiene, but you get the point. This is a fairly easy change-up they can do, if they decide to. read more

This is a very good place with a full selection of entrees, sides and even multiple very good desserts. What a selection of seafood. Very well prepared with all of the spices I've come to expect at a buffet. Not being a glutton, I surely only tried about 10-20% of the lunch/dinner items and all of it was good or very good. Because the displays were ample and generous, I had only one plate for lunch and another for dessert; I was also pleased with the checkout process that left me with a perfunctory fortune cookie containing a pleasant fortune. Whereas some buffets put out plenty of cooked seafood, not all are as thoroughly well seasoned and prepared. Food: 4 stars. The service was prompt and excellent from hello to goodbye. It's mainly an upbeat family atmosphere, not particularly intimate or romantic. Pleasant and studiously kept clean by an attentive but unobtrusive staff. Service: 5 stars! Ambiance: 3.5 stars. I will return here soon. It's my new favorite Chinese food spot in the N.E. K.C. area! read more

This is the first buffet with Chinese that I've been too in a very very long time. But this one is probably one of the best I've ever been to. Very clean, excellent service and the food is topped off regularly with fresh hot varieties. My favorite was the General Tsaos Chicken very flavorsome, slight crunch with spicy sweet sauce. Delish! The Egg rolls, and the soups were very good, sushi was very good too and very fresh tasting except for the artificial crab on the one. But it still tasted great. Wasn't a fan at all of the beef n broccoli and the spring rolls had an odd taste to it. Husband got the Mongolian bar to make his dish and the one pictured was his second trip. He loved it. The bar was missing a non fried version of Chinese like Moo Gai Pan or garlic chicken, fresh shrimp or chicken spring rolls would be ideal for me personally and so that was a bit of a disappointment but maybe today wasn't the day for that. The dessert bar was large and had fruit, puddings, cakes, those lil yummy sugar donut thingys. Anyway, we will come back here and it's just down the street from us basically. read more

Our family went here for the first time since moving to Missouri. There were 6 adults & 4 children in our party. Upon entering we were warmly greeted like friends. The hostess was friendly & nice. The atmosphere was pleasant & welcoming. The variety of food was beyond expectations. Everything was fresh & so yummy from sushi to seafood choices, chicken galore & even roast beef. Vegetable dishes too. There was a variety of fresh fruit, and an extensive salad bar as well. Fresh, hot soup & won tons. Desserts galore including ice cream. We will definitely be going back. read more

The buffet has a reasonable selection. The price has increased significantly though. Thus, this option is much less a value choice.

The absolute finest Chinese restaurant they have a nice sushi bar and a big hibachi grill that will grill your food to perfection. Food has all different taste different spices. I've never ever had anything even not good there. It was all delicious. We eat there. We try not to eat as much as I like, but at least a couple times a month and when our kids come out of town, we take them there that's their favorite place. Very best Chinese in the Midwest. read more

I love salt & pepper shrimp! I can only find it the at chinese buffets. So while scrolling thru yelp..I come across this place. I called and the gentleman that answered was very friendly. I inquired about the price of the buffet.. Etc. So fast forward..Once I walked into the buffet...a friendly man greeted me. I informed him that I was not from the area and asked if I could view the food items. He said yes...and low and behold...I spotted the shrimp on the buffet. The shrimp were seasoned soooo good. I honestly have to admit these are THE best salt & pepper shrimp to ever pass thru these lips. The ribs were tender and seasoned just right. I also had a few other items on the buffet that were so good. The buffet was clean, fresh food was constantly being bought out. The atmosphere was family oriented and the staff was very friendly. They also wore masks My only suggestion to management is to have a box of those inexpensive gloves by the buffet so that folks like me who like to lick their fingers after eating those good shrimps dont have to keep washing our hands before touching the serving spoons!! read more

Asian Buffet - Buffet TO GO pricing (June 2023) - Buffets Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

This is one of the Asian buffets that on some occasions I like to visit.! I am not too friendly with buffets the restaurants but this is the closest and also their food and environment are not bad. The food is very tasty and the services are one-time good other times not depending on who is taking care of you for this reason, I give you 3 stars. Being an Asian buffet, deserve more stars only because of the restroom which is very and smells clean so that is a Wow for me. read more

The food is lackluster. Among your average Asian buffets, I would give this one a 2/5. They had a decent variety of items, but nothing really tasted that good. To top it off, the place was dirty. It just looked like it wouldn't be able to pass inspection. It would be different if the food was bomb, because I'm down for hole in the walls if the food is worth it. But naw, this wasn't it. To top it off (though the restaurant really has no control over this), there were so many kids just screaming and running around. We didn't enjoy this meal at all, and we won't be going back. read more

A solid buffet, they've got something for everyone. I love the little hibachi area where you can make your own stir fry. Food was warm, good, and it was a nice time. read more

The staff works hard and they remember their regulars. Always take care of the workers with a nice tip for their courtesy and attentiveness. Sushi is awesome! read more

This is one of our go-to places to eat, usually lunch on Sunday. Appreciate the wide selection, and food always seems fresh and good. For the variety and amount of food, the price is well-worth it (I want to say around $12-13 per person? I mean, come on, you get close to that at McDonalds with nowhere near the selection and quality). They seem to have a lot of things for the kids, too, as we see a lot of families there. Fast, friendly service, too. read more

Pretty good price and service just right ! I will be back for the yummy buffet!!! read more

Staff was very nice.. it's ok as far as buffets go. They have about 5 stations and hibachi. Sushi is average and some of their hot items were good. Small portions so that it is fresher. Good value overall. read more

The food is consistently good! Love the Jalapeño Chicken! I wish they would make the fried noodles for the soup! I go at least once a month!

No crab legs, mediocre food, high cost for average food, won't return. Service good, variety of food, vegetarian choices were good, still not worth money. read more
