    Exactly what you want in a classic Chinese buffet - plenty of choices, fresh food, and a little something for everyone. Everything I tried was great, from the hot entrees, fresh sushi, and desserts to finish it off. The trays stayed well stocked and the food tasted fresh, not like it's been sitting. Service was attentive for a buffet setting - plates were cleared quickly and drinks were filled fast. Casual, family-friendly atmosphere.

    We go here for the seafoods and sushi. Been here a couple of times now. Service is alright and people are generally just doing their job as you would expect in an All-You-Can-Eat place. The kids enjoy the ice cream.

    I was craving Asian buffet for a long while, and they cravings were definitely satisfied at China Buffet. It was super busy, and a little chaotic, hinting at this place's popularity among the locals. We had a lot from salad, to fried chicken, wanton, fish, sushi, and more. Most, if not all, of the foods were at the right temperature (warm or cold). The savoury dishes were great, but the deserts were surprisingly pretty good too. We really enjoyed the whole meal.

    Come hungry, China buffet does not joke around when it comes to buffets. The variety of dishes was impressive, with a mix of classic favorites like sesame Chicken, Mongolian Beef, chicken and broccoli, alongside seafood options like flounder, clams and crawfish just to name a few. The dessert selections were mediocre. The flavors were typical of buffets like this, as not everything was a winner and some dishes were not seasoned well and some dishes were only luke warm. The staff replenished the food quickly when they were running low. One of the highlights was the made-to-order stir-fry and soup noodle station, where you can customize your own dish with a wide range of vegetables and proteins. There was also a limited sushi selection which was surprisingly good for a buffet. The service was great and they cleared used plates quickly, and drinks were refilled without needing to ask. Now for the price you pay either for lunch or dinner, the value is unbeatable.

    The restaurant is very clean, and the servers are extremely attentive. For me, the options were not as fresh or tasty as I would expect, and as I've experienced that other Asian buffets in the area. The sushi options, even considering the fact that it is a Chinese buffet rather than a Japanese buffet, were still extremely limited. Every single option was imitation crab, with no options for fresh real seafood. The General Tso's chicken was just OK as were the egg rolls - just tough overcooked or over fried pieces. I wasn't terribly impressed with the chicken wings, but they weren't bad. Overall, I felt that it was a bit overpriced for what I got.

    I love going here if I'm craving for seafood and real crabs. I also love their sesame balls and ice cream. Wide selection of food items. You'll get your money's worth if you know what to splurge on eating in a buffet restaurant. Aside from the usual Chinese food, they have sushi, hibachi, fruit and salad bar, soup, etc. Service is good. Staff by the sushi bar are super friendly. Plenty of tables and can accommodate a big group. You can also order takeout food which you pay by the pound. Come hungry!

    I came here recently with my wife to get lunch and upon entering greeted by a friendly and professional staff member immediately brought us to our table. The entire restaurant was very clean tables and chairs. The food was all fresh and a great variety of items available. Hot food, cold salad bar and dessert. My favorites were the sesame, chicken, Korean chicken, yellow vegetable fried rice . Everything tasted great and was not bland. They also have a variety of sushi which was obviously made fresh and tasted very good. The guy making the sushi was very friendly upon entering that area and asked if we had any questions about anything. Exiting the restaurant we had a thank you from the hostess on our way out. China buffet is a hidden gem tucked away on big tree way. I would highly recommend!

    We were staying at the nearby Fairfield Inn when we noticed all the cars at China Buffet and decided to try it out. The intricately carved cork artwork in China Buffet could easily be overlooked if you were really hungry and focused on the food. I liked that there was a nice mix of people and noticeably 3-4 tables of Asian customers. The food was a nice mix of Chinese-American options, Sushi, and Mongolian BBQ style grill. I was pleasantly surprised by some very Chinese dishes that I didn't expect to see at a Chinese buffet. I liked that there was a buffet attendant that monitored the food that was out. My hubby was impressed by the big white rice cooker that he had to take a picture of it.

    My husband and I have a quarterly date night at this place- he LOVES the squid salad. I am not one for seafood, but I enjoy the hibachi bar. It's a great way to balance out the Chinese food! I don't know about you, but Chinese food can feel a little heavy. The hibachi bar is a great way to add some fresh veggies to the meal and balance it out. But of course, I had to finish dinner with a small plate of desert. The service is quick and the prices are reasonable for having a buffet, sushi bar, and hibachi bar. I only wish the buffet was a little bigger.

    I had been craving multiple types of Chinese food, so I decided to pick up a friend and go to a chinese buffet. I felt overwhelmed by the number of people once we walked in and should have left right then. We stayed, though, and were seated quickly. It is lovely decor, but that was all the ambiance I could enjoy. Trying to get food felt like it was an Olympic sport, dodging kids and trying to get the good seafood before it was gone. It was an impossible task. People piled multiple plates at once with crab legs, leaving the rest of us with sad, salty, little leftover pieces. Everything was dirty and in disarray. I felt bad for the staff. It felt like they had given up trying to keep things clean or replace food, dishes, and silverware, and i don't blame them. Most of the food looked steaming hot, but by the time you doged and weaved your way back to the table, it was ice cold and soggy. The only good things were the hibachi rice and the butter shrimp. However, I will say I did not make a plate of raw food to be cooked like some others did, and I should have because everything else was just disappointing. This is why I have left three stars instead of one. Because they do have a fresh food option, but I felt too overwhelmed to make it and wait for my food to be cooked in the midst of the hustle and bustle. I just wanted to get out of there. I have not been to a buffet in at least 3 years, and now I remember why. I won't be back. I'd rather have more limited food options and pay a bit more for some peace and quiet and fresh food.

    About to grab some Chinese food with my lovely better half!

    I'll preface this review by saying I've not been to a Chinese buffet since 2018, and all I could remember was "meh food but it was all you could eat." Also, I'm reviewing this place as what it is, which is not P.F. Chang's or an eatery in Macao, Honk Kong, or Guangzhou. The Bad: The booth tables are weirdly tall. Not unusable or even uncomfortable to use, but as soon as I sat down, I knew my seat was short or the table was tall. It might have just been where I was sitting, but take that for what it's worth. The Good: The selection! Lawdy lawdy, it's huge! I posted some photos. I tried to post some videos but can't. There's the same fare you'd expect, such as orange chicken and fried rice, and of course the dessert and salad tables. But there are also other selections such as steamed flounder, which was so delicious. Nothing I had was bad, actually, and I quite enjoyed the food I had. Sushi. To be fair, it's as good as any typical Japanese restaurant you might go to. Plus, they will whip you up something special if you ask. Nice! Hibachi. There are 4 meat selections (beef, pork, shrimp, and faux crab) plus noodles, peppers, and such. There are also several sauce options posted on the glass where they cook your food. Just let them know what you want. Service. Not more than 5 minutes went by at any time before the server was back around, making sure we were good. We were there at around 1:30, and the place was empty, so that was nice.

My…read morebest friend and I were on a road trip from Richmond, VA to Asheville and this was the halfway point. We were heading to AVL for my bachelorette and throughout the weekend we kept going "GOD THAT RAMEN WAS SO GOOD!" We came on a Wednesday evening. It took a little to get seated and service was on the slower side, but it was worth it. There was a lot of indoor seating and we were seated at a booth. They have mens and womens restrooms at this restaurant. And a lot of free parking out front in their parking lot. We started off with an Alaska roll as an appetizer. This was really delicious! We knew we were off to a great start. I got the black garlic ramen and my best friend got the red spicy oil ramen. We were in heaven. This ramen is beyond delicious. The rich garlicy broth of mine was perfection. Each element was so yummy. I would drive the 3.5 hours back just to get this ramen again. I highly recommend going.

    This was the worst food pickup experience my husband and I have ever had. My husband was treated…read moreterribly by this establishment when he went to pick up our dinner order. He (an African American male) was treated terribly from the moment he went inside. First, the receptionist acted funny toward him and non-friendly, as if he was stealing someone else's order. That was strike number 1. Then, when he got home, we realized our order was absolutely wrong. We were missing the Spider Rolls and the yellow tail. We spent almost $70 so of course, this was irritating. He called the restaurant on his way to get the missing items and once again, the receptionist was rude. She questioned if he knew what yellow tail and spider rolls looked like. Questioning and insulting his intelligence as a grown man. That was strike number 2. He asked to speak to a manager and he said there wasn't one and he would need to come tomorrow to speak to one....yeah ok. He told her that wouldn't be necessary because he was pulling up to the restaurant in about a minute. When he came in she continued to argue with him about his order and told him, he needed to bring it back...why would he bring back the items that were right in the order, when he was there for the MISSING ITEMS?! Not to mention, that's extremely unsanitary! She would not help him but instead argued so badly with him that the chef had to come out of the kitchen. The receptionist spoke to my husband as if he was a child. She talked to him as if he was a thief and a liar. Strike number 3. The chef then told my husband, he would take care of the missing items for him and to not worry. Now, why couldn't the receptions in treat him with the same respect and dignity that the chef did? I'll tell you why. She racially profiled him because of the demographics of the city where the restaurant is located. She treated him as if he was uncultured, ignorant, and a liar. We will never be back and will be sure to write every single person that matters and leave reviews all over the internet exposing this racist establishment. I will be sure that everyone knows exactly what happens when a black person enters the restaurant.

I got an Alaska roll and an eel avocado roll. They were good for the price! My friend enjoyed a spicy tuna roll and Philly roll. The rolls are good, but nothing to write home about. They had women and mens restrooms and plenty of parking out front. There were also a bunch of cute figurine vending machines at the entrance.
