    Food was good for a buffet. They had different soups, a build your own stir fry section, ice cream, snacks, desserts, and plenty of entree options to choose from. Quality was good enough to finish a plate. Cheese wontons were a little too creamy inside. The stir fry section makes your serving huge, so definitely a shareable size. Service was good, nothing to brag or complain about. Great spot for families. Bathrooms had some rust around the toilets.

    I'll say if you are seeking an affordable Chinese buffet in the area and craving some seafood this actually hits the spot. The crab was surprisingly delicious, the clams were a little bland but with a little diy dipping sauce will make it better. Crawfish ok too not great. The fried shrimp and sesame chicken were good as well. Where this place is lacking is in the dessert offerings. Why the cheeseball and veggie straws? It adds nothing to the dessert area. It's a large facility with plenty of space for groups. It's been around for years so they must be doing something right.

    Dining Room

    10/10 would recommend. The place is beautifully decorated and the staff is very friendly. Our server was very personable and made us laugh a lot. She was very attentive. We went around 8:00pm and they closed at 9:30pm. Fresh food was still coming out of the kitchen. People were still pouring in. The bathroom had paper towels over flowing in the bin but honestly that was the only thing I saw wrong here.

    This used to be my favorite place but now it's crap. The crawfish was rotten/ undercooked and the rest of the food tasted bad. We had a coupon for 1/2 off one person but they only took off a few dollars, called it half and added more tax. The service wasn't that good, the waiter couldn't even communicate with us on what we wanted to do about the plates. I was eating off of a plate and she asked if I was done with it and I said no then she proceeded to take the plate and ignore me when I tried to call her back. I would never go here again and only went because I got a coupon in the mail.

    I decided to give this place a try and it's 22.00 wasted!! I hate when this happens! None of it was good.

    I decided to give this place a try and it's 22.00 wasted!! I hate when this happens! None of it was good and taste spoiled! One day I will find some good Chinese food!

    Opened at 11. Not even an hour and the food wasn't fresh or hot

    My husband and I stopped in here for lunch after a doctors appointment. The restaurant had been open less than an hour and some of the food items appeared to be hot by view of steam table. First bite of the crab Rangoon was tough and chewy. I had to pull it with my hand while holding with my teeth to even attempt to eat. Next was my favorite green beans, believe it or not but they had good flavor and crisp but were ice cold and wilted. One last item before I gave up on the meal completely was beef and broccoli the meat appeared to be undercooked I tried to overlook the difference in the colors of red but I couldn't make myself try to eat it. So in order to try the broccoli itself I had to go get a knife and cut in since the tines on the fork wouldnt pierce the raw vegetable. After those 5 bites of food from my plate and my husbands full plate. We got the waitress' attention and told her we couldn't eat this food because of not being hot, not being cooked correctly Rice crunch. Vegetables colf, meat raw in middle and we werebt staying. He raised his voice and said we could only be getting one meal removed that we were responsible for paying over 16.00. I informed him we had just sat down and food not edible. He doesnt care. Claims hes the only management and he didnt mind raising his voice . We paid and then messed up and we charged twice im still waiting for the 32.00 charge to drop off. Ill call the corporate office if i ever find a number as such. In the meantime. Its sad that people like him are allowerd in customer service. We will NOT be returning to a place that not not only made me question the safety of the food but to have someone treat you like that is inexcusable. I found a similar review to mine when I began my review. I probably could have copied it stating "here's another one".

    Great variety.

    Mikey and I are in town to visit some museums. He insisted he owed me birthday supper. Well, I'm sure not going to say no! We wanted Chinese buffet, so here we are. Buffet Palace is just like every other buffet. LOTS of choices, and the food was actually very good. I like buffets because they have so many different kinds of shrimp. And don't forget the mussels! Seriously, I made a pig of myself. Some ocean is half empty right now because of me. They kept the buffet stocked and fresh. We really enjoyed it. To end the evening, Chinese apple pie and vanilla ice cream. YUM! Ok, it was just apple pie, but it was good! If your looking for AYCE Chinese, this might be the place.

    Terrific value - the restaurant does feel a little dated compared other Brazilian steakhouses but…read morethe servers are so attentive and friendly. It definitely felt like a family restaurant, I'm sure there are people who come regularly. We loved having all the meat cuts available, rather than paying extra for premium cuts. I loved the tender prime rib and juicy lamb. Some of the meats were a bit tough, and the beef rib was a bit chewy, but everything was tasty. The grilled pineapple was generous, but a little tart.. I think I'm used to a heavier coating of sugar. The shrimp mix and marinated mushrooms in the salad bar provided the perfect palate cleansers between the heavy meats. We finished off the night by splitting a slice of tres leches cake that was divine! I'd definitely recommend that if you want a little something sweet

The meat is equal if not better than Texas de Brazil but that could be because when i went to Tex de Brazil it was suuuuper busy. The meat at Chama was perhaps a bit more memorable due to being hotter/fresh off the grill vs having made its rounds more. This is the one major thing that was missing from Chama: the mint chutney. That is a standout item at Tex de Brazil and given the fact that both serve multiple types of lamb, it was deeply missed at Chama. Idk im just a condiment junkie but idc how well the meat is seasoned and how high the quality (and Chama is unparalleled in both of those areas) i prefer to have some type of sauce for dipping. Ambience couldnt be better. Beautiful building and entrance, gorgeous lighting fixtures, just a really beautiful upscale experience Service was absolutely phenomenal. My mom preferred Chama Gaucho to Texas de Brazil by a long shot, worth noting. All in all, its tied for the number one placeholder for the best meal I've had in my life. Its definitely a top tier memorable dining experience

The food ordered: pad Thai, tom kha chicken soup, yum soon sen salad, egg rolls, crab Rangoon, a side of fried rice, and jeow som sauce. I ordered off their restaurant app which does include service fees. My total was $64.22. As a whole, the food is really good, nice proportions, and steaming hot. I asked for no spice on the pad Thai and mild spice in the soup and noodle salad. But the pad Thai got all the spice. AND I MEAN SPICY! My daughter was sad at first but powered through and enjoyed it and cleared her sinuses while she was at it LOL. Simple mistake, and lesson learned to make sure everything I order in the future is at the no spice level. The crab Rangoons are thin, delicate and crispy- the filling was slightly sweet and delicious. Very good with the sweet and sour sauce that comes with it. The egg rolls weren't our favorite but they were still tasty. Just not so crispy as we would have liked. The soup was exactly what my cold needed! It cleared my nose instantly. The show stopper was the yum woon sen salad. My daughter and I fought over leftovers. It's the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and sour. A new favorite for sure! We will definitely be back to try other dishes and support this local gem!
