For a buffet it is pretty darn good. Even the sushi is better than expected. The staff is pleasant and tend tables very well. The seating area is kept clean and well maintained. Don't be shy explore a new spot. read more

For a buffet I was actually impressed. It is crazy busy but they keep it clean and the food is hot and fresh and they keep the food areas updated so that they're never out of anything. Staff is attentive and friendly. It's big inside so plenty of seating and room to walk around the buffet area. They have freshly made sushi which is what I went for. You can watch them make it. read more

Buffet City - Chinese Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

Decent selection, fantastic service, and clean. The food was tasty and I ate my fill.

I thought the food was good. My wife on the other hand decided to generally not eat stating the food tasted "old".The service was great. The server routinely cleaned out table of used plates. The food bar were clean and well stocked. It's a typical smorgasbord. For the money I'll go back. It's too bad I'll be eating alone. read more

They have some really good soup here. Wonton soup, egg drop soup and other soups. If you like soups and you like to eat a lot of food, you need to come here. read more

Tried one more time! Food has gone downhill. Service is declining and the owners just don't care is what it looks like! Booth seat are worn down and torn badly, seems a little dirty. read more

The food was just OK. Of course most Chinese Buffets are only that. I have had better, I have had slightly worse... read more

Solid three. The food was okay, not spectacular. Typical Asian buffet. The service was okay - albeit the waitress was a little quick in our section and brought the bill to many people while we were still eating. Why not just charge when we come in? There were plenty of seats and a lot of foods to choose from, including the hibachi area where they cook while you wait. I would recommend staff not dust the air conditioning vents while the restaurant is open for business. That was shocking to see - so close to the food but yes, it did happen. Green cleaning cloth on a long pole, stuck up onto the intake vent, dusting.... read more

Whenever I come to visit my in-laws, we always eat at Buffet City. It is one of their favorites and my stepson also loves it. I gave up eating Chinese buffets years ago but I do look forward to eating here. The best item on the buffet in my opinion is the honey chicken. The sauce is really sweet and sticky. It has more flavor than say the Generl Tso's that can tend to be too runny. I also enjoy all the standard Chinese fare such as egg rolls, dumplings, crab Rangoon, sweet and sour chicken etc as well as the Hibachi with 6 different sauces to choose from. Avoid Sundays and evenings for the higher prices. read more

This place was not good at all. Food was cold, workers unprofessional scammed us charged us extra for "extra food" we did not have. There was only 2 of us and charge us $60. 0/10 do not recommend find a different buffet this one is not good at all. read more

The Buffet food was great cooked well and rotated and refilled. The hibachi was great, sushi bar was huge and delicious with all the favorites, The soup was awesome my wife had a bowl of each with an eggroll and there were 4 kinds. I love that they had Kimchi and it was delicious, they also had a dessert / fruit bar and ice cream case. It was so good I bought a Togo container. The staff was great from entering until leaving. the Butter mushrooms are awesome, and the Hawaiian chicken is a top 3 favorite here. The parking lot is a great size and it's all Handicap assessable. I will come again and recommend. read more

Save your money ....when we hit there there was a sweet man who welcomed us in and brought us to the table . We are not familiar with buffet style eating and so we walked around and got food. Everything tasted like it was day old. The sushi was very low grade the soup was awful there was a whole row with food and mayo. The desserts looked like a throw away bin at Publix but u have to give credit to the only thing edible which was the fruit and shrimp choices. We had a larger group and mid service a served approaches us and asks again how many in our party and as I tell her she gets the check and stated that it's wrong as if I wrote it or lied about the party size . Very confusing to me because i verified upon entry. None the less after the exchange which seemed well they started grabbing all our plates. My dad was literally eating out of one and she pushed in between the seats and grabbed his plate . I was so confused . We didn't eat very much as this was an overwhelming amount of food offered but it simply wasn't good. Also they have a sign with a time limit . We were only there for about 45 minutes. She blocked in another person at our party to even grab plates it was ridiculous. There were so many servers that were just hovering around our table and at first I thought it was good service and then I realized that they really wanted us to just leave. I can say for sure that this was not only an uncomfortable experience, but probably one of the worst that I've had in a while at any restaurant. read more

I really enjoy the food here. The chicken on a stick, sesame chicken, curry chicken, egg foo young and the pepper steak. The Hibachi is great too. Unfortunately the last few times I went they didn't have the curry chicken or egg foo young on the buffet. To go orders are 5.99 a lb every day but Sunday. It is a good deal. read more

We love to eat here when we are in Brooksville, food is hot, fresh and very good tasting. They keep the buffet clean and wiped down so no messes. Asian, American food of all kinds very well prepared dishes, love there chicken wings. read more

The food used to be much better. This is the second time we were not happy with the food here. This time confirmed that it is not as good as when we first started going here. The food was not hot and mostly fatty or fried food with very little protein mostly crust. My bf wanted to try Buffet City again after we went to the Mermaid show. We passed many good restaurants and were hoping for a decent meal. Both disappointed and not going back. read more

It was just ok, the food was the usual selection, and the restaurant was clean and tidy. The person who seated us, for a few feet from the table, and as my wife is disabled, instead of helping with seating her, she wanted to know what we wanted to drink! We were not even at the table and they appeared to be rushing us through the system so to speak. Our drinks, for a party of 4, were refilled once, and we never saw a server, or assistant during the entire meal, just a bus boy. It was nothing special, but filled a need at the time, so we would not make a special journey to return, but if passing, and it was meal time, we would return. read more

We used to go there a long time ago and we loved it. But I moved away.. so we wanted to come back to one of our favorite places to eat. What a disappointment this time. All the food was so greasy.. I spent $85 not including a tip for a family of four.. I did not like the food at all. Very disappointed . My recommendation is find some results to eat. I would rather just done Chinese takeout.

For some reason Yelp wouldn't let me check in, but anyway, this was a random stop on the way to Weeki Wachee. Some things could have been a little hotter but I liked everything I tried. Buffets are not chef inspired cusine places, but my expectations were all met or a little exceeded. Zero spit out chewy guk into a napkin, bravo I say Buffet City. Everything was well stocked, areas were all kept clean . Very good deal at 10.99 for lunch. This place would go into the regular rotation if I lived near it. read more

The service was good the waitress was attentive and serving. The food was mediocre it was moderately busy I didn't get to try the hibachi station. The sushi was not as fresh as I would have liked we arrive at 6pm in case time of day matters to you. read more

DONT GO UNLESS YOU WANT AN ALLERGIC REACTION Ok so lemme explain. My family and I wanted to visit a family friendly affordable buffet to enjoy a good lunch. We looked at the site and thought it looked promising. Didn't know it would lead to one of us sick.(we ALL ended up taking tums) I'm giving a two star because service was amazing though. Some parts of the buffet cost extra. Fortune cookies weren't bad. We had the sweet n sour chicken with the sauce. Didn't know the sauce would cause a reaction. We're fine but just a bit of food poisoning. First and last time going. The price isn't worth the amount of bathroom visits I've made while making this review. Protect your stomachs from food poisoning and your teeth from getting stained by the amount of red 40 in the food. McDonald's would've done justice. Service: 8/10 Food: 4/10 decent but not best quality for price Variety: 6.5/10 decent nothing new Overall it's just a buffet with a semi decent selection that you can wander around to try. As you finish reading this, I'm probably eating McDonald's to make up my own lunch. read more

This place has really got it together. The food was super hot. Everything was fresh great service. Everything is very easy to get to and plenty of different selections will be back. read more

Whenever I would visit Fl my family and I always came here for family dinner. I've always enjoyed the experience and the good variety of food. Love their sushi bar. Food is always hot and fresh. Staff is also very friendly. I haven't been here in a while and now relocated to Fl but I hope these things haven't changed. Check it out I don't think you will be disappointed. read more

The food here is definitely not 5-star, but there's so many options and I always get my money's worth . The buffet is really cheap, but then you pay $2 for soda. They serve so much pork, peel-and-eat shrimp, and seafood salads that I don't eat - but there's also an entire table full of cakes. I try to start with hot eggdrop soup, then fresh cucumber salad, then vegetable fried rice plus orange chicken - but sometimes I go straight for the cakes. Emotional eating. I want to give a shoutout to the waitstaff. They are really attentive, keeping my $2 iced tea filled and clearing away the empty plates. The service is excellent here. You do have to take your own check to the cashier on your way out. It's a very popular local place. The Sheriff's Dept eats here frequently. read more

Buffet City - Chinese Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

We have actually been to this location a couple of times before Covid. We are always greeted upon arrival and the staff is always extremely friendly. Our previous visits weren't always great but our most recent visit has been our favorite so far. We arrived around 8:20, they close at 9 so we figured this was fine as usually most buffets will put the time they stop replenishing food. Unfortunately we were incorrect in our assumption and do suggest arriving before 8, otherwise food will not be replenished. This was our biggest issue but honestly, while our favorites were all out (steak in the hibachi and sesame chicken, etc) there was other foods to still pick from. This is also the best the food has tasted to us! Even though we were there late we were never once felt pressured to eat faster and that was very much appreciated! We will definitely give it another try but be sure to arrive at a more reasonable hour! read more

Buffet City - Inside - Chinese Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

Whenever we are in the Brooksville area and feel a hankering for a Chinese buffet - Buffet City is our to go stop. I'm tickled that it survived the close down of restaurants by Covid. There are some changes in the buffet line and their prices did go up just as all the restaurants have post Covid. Service greets you at the front door hostess station and seats you at your table and takes your drink order before your waitress/waiter arrives. Everyone is very nice and helpful. Some of the help have a little difficulty in communicating, their English isn't the greatest but with patience and lots of gestures we always get what we need! As with all buffets they have hot tables for food and cold tables for salads and things that need to be cold like some desserts. They offer three different soups, Hot and Sour, Egg Drop and Wonton. The broth and wontons are separately served so as to not overcook and get mushy. They're all very good but my favorite is their Hot and Sour. It's loaded with tofu and vegetables and is just the right consistency. Not too thin of a broth or not too gelatinous. They offer chopped green onions and crunchy wonton strips in bowls so you can add to your soup if you so desire. Cold tables offer boiled shrimp, numerous kinds of salads including but not limited to imitation crab salad, seaweed salad, baby octopus salad, marinated mushroom salad and snow pea salad with a sesame oil dressing. Puddings usually consist of chocolate, vanilla and tapioca. Jello squares along with various cut fresh fruit, sugared nuts and macarons are also near the fruit on the cold table. Hot tables hold a variety of Oriental and American choices. Usually a carved ham or turkey roast, pizza, macaroni and cheese, beef stew, mashed potatoes are a few of the "Amercan" food choices. I don't choose those because I'm here to eat Chinese food. My choices this visit were Hot and Sour soup - delicious and something I have every time I visit. Then I always have their peel and eat boiled shrimp which I dip in a mixture of cocktail sauce and hot pepper oil. It's divine! Tip for the shrimp - since they're packed in ice try not to get too far down because I find that some of those can become soft and mushy. I love their mussels and clams dishes, their hot crabmeat casserole, their Shrimp in lobster sauce is also a favorite of mine. Their vegetable sides are very good also. I love their baby bok choy, their green beans cooked with garlic and onions and their sauteed mushrooms. These are solid choices. I usually get their chicken wings but they were not available which is a shame! Their one of my favorites. Crispy but still juicy with a hint of I'm guessing turmeric because there's a little yellow in their coating. I chose beef in a brown gravy with onions this visit which was good. Too many other dishes to mention individually but they do offer some sushi and have a Mongolian grill which was not open at this time. I'm not sure why but we had plenty of other delicious foods. Oh and I must mention their soft serve ice cream and a whole table of various cookies and cakes which I'm usually too full to enjoy! We really enjoy coming here and I hope they will continue to do well in our uncertain economic times! Please give them a try if you're in their area! read more

Nothing special bit bland. More than a little expensive 36. Dollars for 2 really not worth it. If you like bland then yes if you like flavor save your money. read more

All I can say is....NO! Have witnessed the staff pouring new food on top of old nasty off color food and mixing it up so the old food is hid amongst the new. Have witnessed staff placing their hands in places you should not, then not washing or sanitizing their hands before touching food again. I've gotten sick shortly after leaving this restaurant due to food quality or contamination due to unclean handling of food. Do yourself a favor and choose other options. read more

It's been YEARS since I've been here so I convinced my husband to go. All the seafood tasted bad, like spoiled. The salmon was super fishy and the sushi was kinda sour. The mussels tasted like they were cooked in sink water. We picked at the buffet and ultimately decided to cut our losses and left hungry. Even the pastries were DRY smh. Kinda killed the good memories I had of this place.. read more
