When I lived in MKY I would eat August Moon just about every weekend after my long run. The food was exactly what you expect to find at a Chinese buffet. Nothing special, but still very good. I always left satisfied and happy with my decision to eat there. Their black bean chicken is one of the best buffet dishes I've ever had. In fact it's probably the reason I kept going back. Service was always great too. Finally, it's one of the few places in MKY that's open past 8 and the keep the food fresh even up to closing time. The fact that they were open relatively late bumps them from 3 to 4 stars. read more

Just mediocre at best. Orange chickentasted like ketchup chicken. Egg foo yung was one of the worst I've ever had. Fried rice was bland. Egg rolls and crab Rangoon were good but they were probably bought from a food supplier. Will not be back. read more

Left with eating. We don't eat in dirty restaurants. The buffet was not even close to clean and staff was rude because we ordered a water and a soda then went to the buffet and saw how bad it was. Food looked like it had been sitting for a long time. read more

Food was poor and not very fresh! And the service wasn't all that great either. Location could have been much cleaner.

My husband picked our food up last night(order to go). His was firecracker chicken with no spice on it and fried rice that was flat. I had sweet/sour chicken, with white rice. I was disappointed in my food. Seemed to be done in a hurry and no flavor. We've eaten at August Moon and enjoyed the buffet many times but this was sad! read more

Food was delicious, waitstaff was attentive, but not worrisome. Plenty of variety and choices on the large buffet. Plan to visit again.

Went there with my daughter and granddaughter and the food and service were so terrible. We were treated poorly.

The food there was very stale. It tasted like it had been sitting there all day. I also saw some new food being mixed in with the old food. When we told the server and the lady in the front about it they acted like they couldn't care less. Service was terrible. The bathroom doors were sticky and had an awful odor to it. Never going again. read more

If I could give it 1/2 a star I would. Amazingly the WORST Chinese food experience in my life. There were no vegetables on the bars. All the other food tastes the same. YUCK. Don't waste your money. read more

I have found that this business has lowered its quality. Even though the cost of everything has gone up nationwide, I really did not enjoy the taste or selection. It's not a terrible place but I will no longer be patronize this establishment. read more

We had the appetizer platter, the Spicy Basil fried rice and drunken noodles. All were fantastic, I asked them to bump up the spice on the drunken noodles and they were fantastic. Next time I'll ask to have the Basil fried rice a notch higher as well, but I like my Thai food pretty spicy. I grew up with a Thai neighbor who loved to cook and brought food over all the time. Thai spicy for me! I highly recommend the Drunken noodles (I had it with chicken). read more

Expensive, heavily surveilled, more rules than a kindergarten, and gods help you if they decide to put your picture on the wall claiming you've wronged them in some way. If eating your meal under multiple security cameras is your thing, this is your place. Who wants to eat under Big Brother's watchful eye? The food is at best mediocre. A $15 lunch buffet that has only dessert plates and hardly any food. Inadequate sneeze guards. Flies everywhere. So many rules about what you can and cannot do while in their establishment that my head was spinning. Not to mention the very public rogue's gallery naming and shaming for alleged various insults and crimes -- a defamation lawsuit waiting to happen. Save your time, money, dignity, and taste buds. Go somewhere else. read more

The food was very bland, cold and tasted like leftovers from the previous night. I'm sure it was not up to temperature and I hope we don't get sick. There were flies on the dessert bar which was disgusting. There should not be insects flying around a restaurant. Choose another restaurant. read more

if I could give negative start I would!! My husband and I went to eat dinner. My daughter, 8 months old, was in one of the high chairs. The food was awful. My husband bit into his egg roll and we both got nauseous just from the smell. He spit it out. It tasted rotten and smelled just as bad. after the egg roll, we decided to leave. So I pick my daughter up from the high chair and her entire butt is covered in vomit!!! She is a baby. She spits up, and it doesn't smell like vomit, it smells like formula or breast milk. I know it wasn't her because it was only her butt. it wasn't on her shirt or the front of her pants. My child was given a high chair that had someone else's vomit in it!!!! I'm am beyond pissed and we will never be eating here again. read more

i liked it the service was good and the food was delectable as soon as i parked i smelt the food

Spicy is an understatement!!! We ordered the General Tso Chicken which is what we order at every Chinese restaurant. It was very fresh and looked wonderful but the first bite literally caused us all to choke it was so unbelievably spicy. Almost $50 in takeout for three of us just went in the garbage. I called and asked if there was a mixup maybe but they said it was their normal recipe. Be careful what you order if you don't want spicy food. The food smelled amazing and the lady who took our order was very nice so I hope our next experience is better! read more

This was our first visit after a recommendation from my boyfriend's coworker. We stopped in for lunch on Sunday July 19. We were quickly seated and away we went to explore the options. Here's a rundown of some of the choices- peel and eat shrimp, salad bar, Mongolian station, sushi, crab rangoons, seafood combo, blk pepper chicken, chicken and blk bean, General tao chicken, cashew chicken, dragonfire chicken, rolls, August moon chicken, egg roll (not good), an assortment of ice creams, soft serve ice cream or froyo, and baked goodies- the peanut butter pie was pretty tasty as was the blk berry cobbler- according to my boyfriend. Overall, we were satisfied with the freshness of the food and the speed to which the employees worked to refill the buffet. The server was a friendly gal who was quick w/ refills and checked in often to make sure we weren't in need of anything. The napkins are rather weak so we asked for more as they would fall apart. The prices were awesome for a Sunday lunch buffet $8.49 and iced tea is $1.79 and pop is $1.89. The woman's restroom was gross b/c some women are vile esp. after they have gorged themselves at a buffet... read more

August Moon - Chinese Near Me - Murray, Kentucky

Food was OK! Nothing special that you'd want to drive a long distance for but was good! Reasonable price! Will try again sometime! Maybe see what's on the buffet for Donner instead of lunch! read more

I usually don't visit a buffet on a Monday. It tends to be Sunday leftovers...I forgot it was Monday until I was already eating...lol! I was very impressed with the atmosphere...authentic music...the cleanliness and the layout...the etched glass with back lighting of Jade green. The buffet had some impressive and "fresh" dishes not normally seen on the average buffet...I loved the Mu Goo Gai Pan...the Mongolian Beef was great...The hot and sour soup could have been better but the garnishes to add... made up for it.. The dessert bar had some "American" desserts to enhance the usually tasteless Chinese fare and I had to try the sugar free frozen yogurt...although there was plenty of flavorful "hard" ice cream Waitresses dressed in authentic costumes...thought the price was gonna be higher than most... 7.99...so clean I thought it was new...cashier said ...about 8 years...I'm going back read more

August Moon - the menu for the event - Chinese Near Me - Murray, Kentucky

Half of my order was wrong. Ordered through delivery service which is unable to open containers so not their fault. The restaurant was contacted to let them know and some sort of credit as the bill was pretty steep. Completely denied. They said it was prepared correctly. There is a difference between egg rolls and spring rolls. Who puts pineapple in lo mein? So glad I didn't have my heart set on that hot & sour soup. Always been a favorite but never will I spend money there again. read more

I go here quite a bit! I think the buffet is delicious and has a great variety, while also being affordable. Additionally, I have always been impressed with the takeout, as the portions are large and the food is definitely quality! read more

August Moon - When I get takeout, I usually get the beef and broccoli. It also comes with a crab rangoon and a(n) egg/spring roll! - Chinese Near Me - Murray, Kentucky

Decided to get take out after spending the day at MSU before returning to the hotel. We ordered 2 soups, 3 spring rolls, and a fried rice. Our hotel was 2.2 miles away. Back at the hotel,,we opened the tied bag, there was NO SILVERWARE!!! I called the restaurant and told them we had nothing to eat with!! The guy said Well we don't know. A lot of people just go home. Whaaat???! Then he said A lot of people just give back the silverware anyway but you can come back and get some. Is he kidding me??? No. Did they ask me if I needed silverware? No. He seemed to think this was all perfectly fine. I got back out and went to the convenience store across the street to grab forks and spoons. Then, to top it off, the soup was so salty and burned tasting that I couldn't eat it. Finally, there was no sauce for the spring rolls. This was a cluster. A college town needs better than this! read more

The worst Chinese Food in the area. Paducah has five Chinese restaurants that are better than this.

This place was 1,000 times better then my experience in Tennessee. Nice atmosphere, clean all the way through. The buffet was reasonably priced, but most of all the food was good. Lunch for 2 with drink was 20 dollar range. Good variety. The only thing I could say, if your a Chinese restaurant? Stick to Chinese food. Pad Thai was terrible. Would definitely go again. read more

Those who know me know I am not one to complain, nor have I EVER sent food back August Moon was my first experience ordered cashew chicken, it was not chicken, I asked the waitress to get me chicken or just take it off the bill, she argued with me and had no intension of taking it off the bill. I said it was pork and she kept arguing I asked to see the Manager NOW. He came out and insisted it was chicken, we asked him to taste a piece and he would not, I said take it off the bill we would split my husband's lunch he said I will take it off the bill but it is what you ordered. ok fine. He walked away and came back to argue some more and insisted it was chicken I said I am not eating that it is not chicken. He just kept yelling how we had insulted him and no one should insult his food or him I said well we are not staying and eating this food nor paying the bill. My husband said you just lost two customers maybe more. He said e didn't need customers and told us to get out! read more

Ate at this place last Sunday. The buffett is what we ordered. It was delicious! The server we had was excellent. She was timely and she made sure we never ran out of drinks. She made sure to clear our plates from the table as soon as we we're finished. Even though it was super busy, we never felt rushed. It was under 50 dollars for 4 people to eat. I was completely satisfied. Thumbs up to this place. I'll go back again read more

We're new to the area and decided to try August Moon out. It smells so good when you walk in. The food was just ok, nothing really stood out. Sweet N Sour sauce was really bad. I can't say I'd be back unless I had a craving for a specific thing. read more

Delicious! This is the best Chinese food in West Kentucky. Very well priced, calm and ambient atmosphere with hot, good food.

We went in the evening, the entire buffet was stocked full even though they were relatively busy. Everything was fresh! The crab Ragan's were yummy. They have sushi, multiple desserts, great choice of baked , fried and sautéed foods. The eggrolls or some of the best I have ever ate. This is one of the best Chinese buffets around. read more

This is one of our favorite Chinese places to eat. I love that the buffet has a wide variety of known only Chinese food but also American Cuisine as well. However occasionally some of the things on the buffet are dried out and the desserts are not the best. With that being said we still like to eat here and we have never gotten bad service. read more

Best Asian buffet in Murray hands down! You will not be disappointed! Every buffet item is fresh and tastes just like the "big city" Asian restaurants. This place has it all- the aesthetics, the cleanliness, and of course the taste!! They do not just roll out half cooked Buffett items in a hurry to keep it stocked nor do they have too many items to choose from which is usually an indicator that good authentic flavor will be absent. A good variety but not overwhelming. It's the only Asian food I can consistently recommend in Murray. read more

This was one of the worst so called chinese places I have ever eaten at the food was not worth the money for sure! Service wasnt great either. Only one person in our group liked it. It is americanized chinese not authentic tasting. To much American food on the bars. Will not be back there again. So sad that hibachi king closed and not this horrible place. read more

As buffet good this is good the food is fresh, but the selection is a little thin compared to many Chinese buffets but still not bad deal for the money. I've eaten here for years, ever since the old location and I've always been pleases and left full. I'd give them 5 stars but as I said the selection is a little thin compared to some of the super buffet you'll find overall I think that there is more than enough food for most people. Give it a try and honestly I haven't had anything here that wasn't good so I can't point to one dish being better than others. read more

great food for this place everytime I go its always fresh an taste great! I would deft recommend this to any one that hasent gone.

horrible food horrible everything except service they got my drinks pretty quick that was about it

Didn't particularly want to eat here but others in my group did. This is a typical college town buffet where the food is mediocre. There's lots of it, and it's cheap, but that doesn't make it good. The bathrooms smelled of that used mop water smell. Definitely won't be back. read more

This is the best Chinese buffet I've been to and seen this made me and my mother very happy with the quick and nice service

We live 45 mins away and it was worth the drive. Atmosphere and decor was on point and modern with a classic feel. It is the best Chinese around better than anything in Paducah. I took pictures of the bars so you can see the variety, forgot to take pics of ice cream area but you've seen one you've seen them all. We went at 6pm it's a good time to go because items are the bar were hot and fresh. I'm sure it's like any Chinese buffet place go during the busy times to ensure good food. read more

See all

This is probably the best Chinese buffet I've been to. Super clean and relaxing. Modern Chinese atmosphere. Food is kept very fresh. The bill for one buffet plus a soda was just under $12.00. Next time I'm in town, I'll be back. read more

Worse Chinese food I ever ate and I've lived in Detroit, Dallas, Tampa, Baltimore, Louisville, Lexington, Memphis and traveled extensively. Horrible food without any of the Chinese flavors you would expect from an oriental restaurant. Don't eat at this restaurant if your craving Chinese. read more
