Tonight on a Friday evening I stopped in at the Asian Buffet. The restaurant was quiet and pleasant for dining, but I must add that I did notice some rips in the fabric of the booths. The service was very good and the cost most reasonable. I found the quality of the food, however, a bit below what I had previously experienced. Not that the food was bad, but a lot of the food was oily and some food (like the egg rolls) was tough and chewy. On my earlier visit I rated the dining experience at the Asian Buffet around three and thee quarters to four stars, but today I must drop the rating to about THREE AND A HALF STARS. Overall, I would say the food I experienced during this visit rated between a "C" and a "B-." Most of it was pretty mediocre, but...this is a large buffet afterall. When dining here you should not have great expectations. Not bad but not great either. read more

The food was cold. There were only chicken and pork dishes at lunchtime; no beef was to be found. The desserts were dry and stale. If I were grading this Chinese buffet I would give it a "D". Very disappointing. read more

My wife actually found a small bug in the desert tray... I cannot say ut was a cockroach, but it was just nasty. A fly insect, or whatever should not of been any where near the food or on it... read more

Asian Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

When they're at their best it's a pleasant experience, must say unfortunately that's not always the case but the sushi is always great! Service is fine the first time around but it seems like they sometimes forget about you. The tables are comfortable and atmosphere is good , Staff is nice and friendly and really can't go wrong. Would really be nice to always have some egg foo young available for the dinner service. Nice overall selection . read more

We went out planning to get Mexican in the area but on a Friday night it just didn't work out so we went back to the hotel and walked next door to this place. It's bright and clean and we were seated right away. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They have lots of options from appetizers to entrees, sushi, hibachi, and dessert. Everything was fine but to be honest many of the chicken dishes tasted pretty similar and none of it was particularly hot. It's a buffet so our expectations weren't very high but it turned out to be fairly decent. We finished our meal with some little ice cream cups and walked out full. The price was reasonable at about $51 for the three of us. read more

Atmosphere is welcoming. Music playing was great. Clean and always fully available items at the buffet. Service is friendly and never need to flag down servers. Chairs have tears & need to be replaced. read more

So disappointed. Will toss. Traveling through town and ordered on instacart which was great to motel! I didn't realize it was close to closing. Orange chicken old and not orangey at all, veges over cooked well past normal Asian fresh style, steamed rice A weird color and old. Wasted over 30$ on my big treat. I know Asian cooking and even at end of day make it good and fresh or refuse the order. read more

We just ate here for dinner. All four of us loved it! Everything was fresh. You could see the steam coming off the food. The tables and floors were clean. The honey chicken was my favorite. The cream cheese wontons were to die for. We will be returning soon. PS: Not sure what the pink fluff raspberry dessert is cause it wasn't labeled but that was very really good too. read more

Wide variety of foods. From pizza, fresh made sushi, hibachi, several Asian dishes. Very clean

I was here a little over a year ago and the prices haven't changed (about $14 for lunch and $17 for dinner), but that's the best I can say about this place. They have the same items at lunch and dinner so save yourself a few dollars and just eat at lunch, if you want to bother coming here at all. I came in for dinner and I was disappointed with almost everything I ate. The sushi I enjoyed last time was just "mushy" and didn't have any flavor. The chefs were really slow to put out more and it seemed like they just slapped everything together because most of it was a squished mess. The appetizers were either undercooked or fried to oblivion. It's a shame because these were some of the items I liked the most. I glanced at the chicken nugget tray and they looked like sand covered rocks. There was only one fish item, one beef item, and one pork item but they weren't refilled during the entire time I was here. The rest of the meat options were half a dozen varieties of chicken and like last time, they all tasted the same. The only difference was the amount of spiciness. Nobody refilled the salad bar so it was just a few scraps of soggy lettuce and sliced cucumber. I tried some of the cooked octopus and it was like chewing through an eraser. It also had a fishy odor so it was probably sitting at the counter for a while. The coconut shrimp was all batter and sauce and it tasted like spoiled mayonnaise. I was going to try the stir fry this time but like everything else, the trays weren't being refilled so there were only some dried out scraps of vegetables. I don't know why but just like last time, nobody in the restaurant went for any of the desserts at the counter or the frozen treats in the ice chest. The pacing of the food prep didn't change even when the restaurant started to fill up. I assumed that the lack of refilling the items was due to the staff preparing everything for a dinner rush, but I guess that wasn't the case. Maybe they were running out of stuff. I don't know but I won't be coming back for a third time. read more

Nasty food, when I asked about all of the items for my vegetarian wife online menu, they said oh those items are served at lunch only. No differentiation prior the food was very sloppy. The stirfry guy was rude slow and disappeared with our food behind the wall for some reason and not just under the grill. My wife's came back with food that wasn't even stuff she would pick a whole experience was terrible and will never go back. read more

For being a buffet it's really not too bad. I've ordered a few times and went in with low expectations but have been pleasantly surprised. They'll never get five stars but I will order again. My favorite is the seaweed salad but the sushi rolls are pretty decent. Again, it's a buffet place so don't expect gourmet but if you just want a quick meal, it hits the spot. read more

The service so good , it's a bit pricy but the food is good , a bit cold but good. :)

I have been to this establishment a total of 4 times. I really liked it until the other night when I placed my usual to go order. First, I wanted fried rice instead of steamed. Before they did not charge but this particular night I was told that it would be an additional charge. I declined and asked for an additional patty of the egg foo young. They told me that they don't do that! WTH? So okay I told them I wanted my Teryiake Gravy and was told okay. I get to the establishment, paid for my order without checking because I have never had a problem. I drive home which isn't very close and my order is all messed up. I have the wrong gravy no steamed rice, so I call and the employee starts arguing with me and telling me I am the one who is wrong. WOW! I ask for the manager and she says she is the manager. I am so frustrated from arguing with her at this point. I say what are you going to do as I am a good customer. She tells me to bring back the food and they will refund me my money. I simply gave up because I was tired from a long day and did not feel like making another long trip. I ended up just throwing the food away. I am so disappointed that I will NEVER go there again! Stunned and really disappointed. read more

What could improve??? The food Very very poor quality no taste very sad. I thought I'd give this place a try it's very sad we have no good Asian restaurants. read more

I will preface this review with the fact that I do not live in the Las Cruces area, I live near Los Angeles where Asian food of all kinds abounds. That out of the way, I can honestly say this was a surprisingly good Chinese/Asian Buffet experience. I say "surprisingly" because you never know what your going to get with Chinese Buffets and this is Las Cruces. The food was well presented, hot and flavorful. The selection of dishes was large and the sushi was good. The restaurant was well kept, clean and the lighting was appropriate for the setting. Service, seating and checkout were fast and friendly. The large waterfall feature inside the front door is a nice touch. No complaints about anything, and I'll be going back again while I'm in Las Cruces. Always nice to be surprised when you visit a new place. read more

We don't really like buffets, but this is the best Asian food we've encountered here. The Hibachi is the best! You choose your veggies, meats (chicken, shrimp, or beef), and have a choice of 2 noodles. Delish and freshly made. The egg drop soup is also good, and every week there are some new items. Today, pork chops Chinese style. And sesame seed coated nuts!! The seafood veggie dish today was particularly good. Great service. Senior discount keeps us coming back. read more

Never go back , sorry read more

The attitude of staff is horrible. The price isn't clear so we asked about it, we were yelled at and told to leave (after we paid the bill, of course). Never did we say we weren't going to pay the bill, we just wanted to know why our bill for 2 adults and 1 child was almost $60 for dinner. They embarrassed us by yelling and it was uncalled for. read more

The food was great, however, shortly after I got a severe case of food poisoning. The staff were friendly. It was a nice place but no health concerns were taken into consideration. It had a nice vibe about it, that was before I ate their food. read more

This place is great. Big selection to select from. Nice open seating area. Pizza and Italian food if you don't want Asian read more

Food is okay. Service is usually subpar. Last few time I went it's been quite disappointing. Only 1 beef meal out rest are fish and chicken I probably am going to take a break from them for awhile in hopes that maybe things will get better read more

some of the reviews are just wrong. The prices are clearly posted on the hostess podium. There is a great selection. The staff are generally friendly. I have eaten there many times so I have tried everything and I know which items are best. I also know the cost of sushi from other restaurants. And that alone insures you are getting your moneys worth. There are times now where you can go to a fast food drive-through and pay almost $20. If you have an appetite, this is the place to go! read more

There was nothing on their buffet that made me go, "oh my goodness, I must come back here again and eat this amazing Chinese food". Spring rolls were tasteless, chicken dishes were oily and chewy, little shrimps were once frozen, deserts were store bought, crab rangoons were edible and it was clean and service was good. So it was average buffet fair. Hench 3 stars. They do have a fresh veggie section that they cook for you at the hibachi grill. I may try that next time. However, what keeps it from getting 2 stars was the sushi. They had a LOT of rolls and they were all fresh and delish. I can eat $15 worth of sushi! Easy. So yes, I'll be going back for all you can eat sushi! read more

Pretty good selection to choose from. Most of what I tried I liked. 12.99 for lunch. Drinks other than water are an added cost, which is the situation at buffets in the area. In other parts of the country where buffets are, the drink is always included in the buffet price. The buffets here should be Prix Fixe. They're not. They would be if they included the drinks. The sushi was good, and the service was great. They have one food table set up for the Hibachi. I didn't try it, but I was told it was good by a patron. They also have an ice cream freezer with individual servings in it. Overall, the food tasted good and is appetizing. It was relatively busy during lunch, but there's plenty of seating. The people working the buffet do a good job of keeping the trays full and wait staff clears plates and fill drinks, and seems to be very efficient at it. I found it to be above average and a good place to get Chinese buffet. read more

I was craving Chinese food and have been searching a while for some decent Chinese food. I am super happy to have found Asian Buffet. The food here is amazing! I'm not a big eater but I ate at least 5 plates. The teppanyaki is to die for! My friend and I both had 2 plates each. Lol. Sushi is fresh and definitely way better than some other sushi joints around the area. Service is wonderful! Super attentive. read more

Asian Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

As you can see, the Yelp Reviews are all over the place for this restaurant. I actually ate here a year ago when I was in Las Cruces for business and I came back and decided to try it again. Staff are friendly and quick. The buffet has a large selection of items and everything appeared to be fresh and at a good temperature. There is also a sushi bar that puts out a variety of tasty rolls and I was able to also get several pieces of salmon and tuna sashimi. All good. There is also a hibachi grill where you can combine your own ingredients and they will cook it for you. Last time, my review was a 3, but what they are doing now rates a 4. Overall, I was pleased with the visit. read more

Besides the fact that food was just mediocre, at best, the staff was quite rude. I have an official medical card signed by the ADA stating I cannot consume more than 4 ounces of food and that I should be charged the children's or senior rate or be subject to significant fines. Not only did they refuse, the were quite rude/insulting about it. This was the first place to ever refuse to accommodate. read more

My wife and I decided to try the Asian Buffet today for lunch. The restaurant started out as the Empire Buffet at a different location in town. When they moved to this location it was the Grand Buffet, and now it is the Asian Buffet (same owners? or new owners?). The buffet has a lot of items to choose from. Everything that we tried was good or pretty good. We both had the mental idea that this is a buffet, and both of us consider buffets as usually only OK. I will say that the staff is very quick to take dirty dishes and refill your drinks. read more

Surprised to find a Chinese buffet this good in Las Cruces. Wife loves the crab rangoons and egg drop soup, and the almond cookies. I've been happy with pretty much everything I've tried. read more

Food is good and lots of options and variety. There are sushi and hibachi. They cooked the food right in front of you and constantly bring hot food out. We love the dessert as well and everyone is happy coz they got what they want. Service is great and fast. Ambiance is excellent for family and gatherings. Highly recommended read more

Went there last Tuesday on a fiewld trip with seniors from Alamogordo, Wel the lace was very clean and new,, servers were ok -friendly and attentive, prices were along with other buffets at $14.99 including drink, an added 15% gratuity was also added, ehh, normal now a days soo no big deall. Now let us get down to the buffet items and tha is where this place gets a 2 star and that is being genious. Fres fruit tsable were NOT ripe, none of the melons etc, that is understandable due to the season, the cookie and bread and cracker table tradional and ordinary, as all asain buffets havem BUT,, the main tables of meatsm seafood, noodles etc were bad all the way.. NOTHN G but cjhicken done up in a billion differst ways,Real seafood ites such as shrimp were no where to be foubnd, except for ONE platter of boiled shrimp in a soy sauce base,, NO friend anything ca be found,, shrimp, chicken clams, etc no where to be, and we were there on a basically slow lunch so NO rushes ca be exzcuse. One rice platter, NO noodles weird and franky, go elsewhere if you want a variaty of seafood entrees, even shrimp read more

I love the buffet and the way the food is made so good it's just flavor to my tongue and the sushi and the dumpling sauce love the food idk why is has three stars read more

As far as buffets go, this place is really good. It has a nice variety of mains, noodles, rice, desserts, fruit and salad. The sushi is definately a bonus as it's nearly as good as most stand-alone sushi places. While they have a hibachi grill, I didn't try it. The food turns over in a reasonable amount of time, so nothing gets old. Prices are reasonable too and the staff is prompt and polite. I definately recommend. read more

The food is decent. There's sushi and a grill where they'll make your raw choices into stir fry or soup. There are quite a few desserts to choose from but they're like the kind you get in the refrigerated section of a grocery store. Today we went at 7:45 pm when they are advertised to close at 9:30 pm and said the kitchen would close at 8 pm. Thankfully they let us look around to see if there was food. There really wasn't that much out so we ended up leaving. Please update your hours or keep your kitchen open later. Disappointing to show up to somewhere and have to leave because there's no food.
