Great buffet for a reasonable price. Went here on a Saturday night with a party of 8 and it was super busy. First time going for dinner and was so surprised how busy it was. There was a line out the door of people waiting for a table. All food items were fresh and seasoned well. There wasn't anything that was overly salty or over seasoned. Great variety of items from seafood, to sushi, to French fries and chicken nuggets. They also have a soft serve machine that actually works!! Overall, wonderful experience and staff are very friendly and service is excellent. They have the most hard working staff I have ever seen, quick to refill your drinks and clear off dirty plates. read more

We were there on a weekday for lunch. Price was lower than competing buffet we go to and there was so much good food . I would go back again waitress was very nice and food was fresh and tasty read more

The restaurant was a little worn, but clean. For example, plates are all chipped, but washed. Staff removed dishes from tables quickly and filled drinks. As for the food, it was just ok. Shrimp wasn't cleaned, chicken was chewy, and most of the food was just bland. There wasn't any traditional kung pao or cashew chicken, beef and broccoli, etc which would have been nice. Honestly, I would rather have Panda Express... Which says a lot. read more

This is our go-to spot. The food is always very good, hot, and plentiful. We've been coming here for years. spot read more

This buffet was surprisingly very good! I wasn't expecting much due to the generic name, and it being in a bit of a older shopping center. The restaurant was clean but hadn't been updated in awhile. However, the food selection was on par with or better than most Chinese buffet. And the taste was well above average for similar restaurants. I enjoyed the food more than the past four or five Chinese buffets I've been to. Good price, great food! (for a buffet) read more

Food is fresh they keep filling the trays from the kitchen. We sat quickly and the room was neat and clean.

Food was way too cold and tasteless, the lady up front didn't mention how much service is, and the ambiance gives off I went back to the 80s. read more

Really great seafood selections, crab rangooon, six different shrimp selections along with a great selection of traditional Chinese dishes. There's regular American food too for the kids and those in your party who don't eat Chinese. If you can't find some things you like here, you're just hard to please. read more

It was good the value for the price the service is not bad too for the price I think it's worth it have ate here a few times now no regrets . read more

I love this place a lot. The coconut chicken and pineapple cheesecakes are my absolute favorite. I've tried a lot of the food here and it's always amazes me. They have all kinds of foods. Service is always great, they bring the drinks out asap especially when they see it's almost finished. Place always looks clean when ever I go. They are also always friendly with my children. Love this place a lot read more

Great service and great selection for the price. I would def recommend for a casual night if your don't feel like cooking. Our family loves it and everyone gets to eat what they like. We leave happy and full. read more

Clean place with a large variety of foods never seemed to run low or out As evening started prices went up but the food quality Improved Not your typical buffet read more

I have been going to tis buffet since before 2010. It is near Middletown NJ and I meet a friend there throughout. i was disgusted by the service of the food. We were there for dinner on a weeknight. They purposely did not allow to the customers more than one spare rib. When I went to get ribs, there was only one rib remaining. the worker held onto the replacement and did not refill until I left. then she only placed two ribs in the buffet. That was ridiculous. If you do not want a customer to have more than one, then do not place it on the buffet read more

Very nice people work here. They are friendly and helpful. I do recomment this place because of the frindliness.

2nd visit better than first!!! My Wife who is a very discerning food critic gives 5 stars, well there you have it.... I give five stars for what it is, normal neighborhood chinese food, gourmet? NO! healthy? Not much some good options, but if you wanna be bad and fill up on sugary sodium filled goodness well then like me you'll be happy!!! Boneless wings, General Tso's Reg wings, Boneless ribs, stuffed clams, bang bang chicken, Calamari salad and other stuff I forget now all good, for what it is and what it portrays itself as it does not dissp read more

The China bufette is a nice place to visit to have a good meal. It is big so you don't feel cramp the food is in the middle of the floor. They serve lots of vegetable, fish and sushi. There is also a variety of deserts fresh fruit, jello, vanilla and vanilla chocolate cones. It is located in Hazlet. read more

Do not recommend. Got there for beginning of dinner time and there was no food at all. It's a huge place but the 3 areas they have for the buffet is a repeat of the same food. The food was soggy, had no flavor, not fresh, just honestly horrible tasting. The service was ok they came around once in a while to clear the plates. There was no variety, I have nothing more to say it was just not good whatsoever. Came home feeling sick to my stomach. read more

Just went again on Wednesday. This time we brought our niece with us . My wife had 3 plates and My niece had 4 . They loved the food . Keep in mind this is a Buffet! The staff were great ! Very friendly . Very helpful We will go there again. read more

Good food reasonably priced for what you get never been disappointed with them I love to eat

The service is very good. The food is mediocre. I find the food to be just warm instead of hot. The fried rice lacked taste, but the chicken wings and honey chicken were very good. The stations are clean and always being replenished. read more

Food was ok problem was it was very crowded and they couldn't keep up with the food. The best thing they always had was the grill which closed! I'll never go on a Sunday afternoon again! Service was excellent. read more

The place is spotless and very clean. They were continually cleaning floor, tables and surroundings while we were there. They are following covid safety regulations. Its still an all you can eat buffet but now they have a server with gloves and a mask serve the food to you at the buffet stations. I actually prefer it this way. Food is fresh. They have everything! Excellent friendly staff. Support your local businesses! We love China Buffet as a stand by anytime place to eat. Open late. read more

OK for a buffet, did away with grill,duck and crab legs and raised price.Their meat,beef and chicken over tenderize probably use baking soda.. read more

I love it here! Food is always amazing around lunch time, sometimes the food can get cold from being left out to long, but I'm not complaining. Staff is always friendly and always checking your drinks. The tea, sushi and ice cream is what keeps me coming back to be honest. read more

The place was okay. I thought there would be a wider selection of food but not so much at least to my liking. But the food wasn't so bad nor was the service whatsoever. It was the fact that we got overcharged. My boyfriend and I came in for lunch and even left before the lunch period was over, yet we still got charged the dinner price which I found strange. This will be the only time we come. read more

I see some of these knucklehead reviews and just scratch my head for a moment. You do realize you sought out a Chinese buffet and not the Four Seasons correct? Put that nonsense aside for a moment and let that sink in. Price: $15/person for dinner (Sunday) The place looked dated but let's be real, you're eating at a buffet you didn't come for mahogany woodwork, fine tapestry and marble flooring. The serving staff that we encountered were pretty friendly, cleared the table efficiently and were attentive enough to refill drinks without us asking. Men's bathroom... eh yeah hopefully the staff reads this and figures that out because it was a horror show with leaky plumbing fixtures. Food was pretty good but not great but overall had a pretty large variety of items. Decent size fruit/salad bar. A few various types of sushi, a made to order Mongolian Grill station and about 4-5 sections of hot foods. They had 4 or 5 different types of chicken as well. They had crab legs that they refilled 2-3 times while I was there but some people were savage and would basically empty the entire tray on their own plate. The stuff that kids would likely eat if they aren't adventurous eaters seemed like they were all bagged/frozen though (mozz sticks, pizza, fries fried scallop) So put your fat pants on and leave your pretentious review at home. It's a buffet, there will be no Michelin stars awarded here --- you know what your in for. read more

We have been going there for quite some time and then we stopped about a year ago. I forget exactly why, I know we had a bad experience. Now, they seem to have new management and I can highly recommend this buffet. Prices ( $15-$19) are very good along with attentive and friendly service and good selection. Food is constantly refreshed; table places are cleaned after every customer , especially since there are a lot of families..... with kids who make a mess in the dining room and restrooms. They have really upped their game. Convenient to coming home from the shore. read more

been going there for years and every time it's amazing, the sushi is always great and the food is always nice and hot.

Wonderful hole in the wall buffet! Very clean and well lit- friendly staff- good tasty food and sushi/rolls as well non Asian food ( apple pie, buffalo wings, hot dog rolls) - even a Mongolian grill for fresh stir fry etc! Very delicious and reasonably priced. Will come back again! read more

Just had lunch; everything is fast to refill! Better than I expected! Staff are good! Good for the price even come with senior discount!

Consistently good for a Chinese buffet. Usually lots of families there enjoying the food. I notice the staff always filling the buffet tables. The waitresses are also very nice, as well as the gentleman at the front. Place is generally clean! Everything I've tried tastes pretty good. They do have decent wontons for the wonton soup !Big variety and everything on the buffet is labeled so you know what your selecting. They have different pricing for various days and time frames, which is a bit confusing. read more

The quality of the food was just so so. It might have been that I had not gone to a Chinese buffet in 2 years but I felt really sick after eating here read more

I used to come here all the town when I had family living in this area. My most recent visit was probably my first one in at least 5 years, if not longer. It's still very good. They have an enormous selection of chafing dishes as well as a Wok or Mongolian BBQ section. And, everything was good. Their sushi section is just OK. I have been to other places with larger and more varied selections. Service was efficient. read more

The food is mostly alright, but hey, it's a buffet open during a global pandemic. Would recommend the Asian Grilled Chicken with white rice. The experience works as expected: Masks required to enter and walk throughout the restaurant, including the buffet where employees wearing gloves will load your plate with desired selections. Also, Pepsi products for anyone who needs to know. read more

went here and woke up shitting up my back and throwing up out my window the next morning.

Here with family visiting other relatives on the eve thanksgiving - I guess due to the time it's a quite Wednesday night, place is about 20% to capacity, food selections is surprising plentiful, but quality is just average, not too bad for off beaten path - none Asian population area. read more

Oh my!! Place meets and exceed expectations (for a buffet place, mind it) The Mongolian Grill is the star of the place. Skip the buffet racks, go for the Grill and Dessert and you will walk away smiling (if you can walk that is) At the Grill load up on the Veggies and the oil, wines, garlic and ginger. Go light on the sauces - just perhaps lemon and Mongolian. After you are done enjoy the screen prints of the Pandora Mountains and the Great Wall. read more
