This is my go to when I'm in Surprise for lunch . The host is always nice . The servers always clear the plates and refill drinks . The section is a good selection. My go to is the California rolls and crab legs . This time I was in the area later and this was dinner . First time for dinner but I'll be back because of the snow crab . read more

Not sure where to start -- this place feels more like a local buffet. The food selection is just okay, not very extensive. Cleanliness was a bit concerning. The food I tried wasn't very good. If I had to pick something decent, it would probably be the soups. Everything else wasn't something I'd go back for. I had four plates, and by the last one I couldn't even finish it. I walked out still kinda hungry -- I just didn't enjoy the food or the overall environment. Service was quick. I think the biggest issue for me was the lack of cleanliness. If I'm craving a buffet, I'd rather drive an extra 15-20 minutes to go to a better one. (PS. I had stomach ache 40 mins after..) read more

A very good buffet. Plenty of choices. Quality was very good. Clean serving area. Food temperature was good.

Love the China Buffet. Food is great. Desserts are also good. The price is reasonable for all you can eat. Definitely one of my favorites.

The sushi was quite good, and the service was excellent. The restaurant is well-maintained and very clean. Not busy for a Monday lunch time, which I appreciate. read more

Can you believe I've driven past this place a million times over a decade and never stopped to check it out? There is potential here, but today's experience definitely left me feeling meh at best. The place is quite large compared to what I was expecting. There are multiple stations from soups, salads, main courses, sushi and even a fruit/dessert area. We were seated right away and our drink order taken. I've never been to a buffet where you pay after, but that is how it was done here. For me prices were fair considering you could eat as much as you wanted. While I enjoyed some of the food others not so much. The small rice noodle dish I can't remember exactly what it was called was my favorite. The beef and broccoli was good as well as the banana pudding. For me the sushi tasted imitation and bland. The orange chicken, black pepper chicken and spicy chicken all tasted dry and like they'd been sitting under the heat lamp quite a while. I say this place has potential as I think if we had vo as they put the food out it would taste more fresh. We arrived at around 3 which is close to the cut off before they do dinner. Service was good and we had multiple refills as we sat. I'd possibly come again when they first open. read more

This is where we ate Christmas dinner. It was nauseating. Most of the food was obviously leftovers, heated over and over. We thought there might be something to avoid, but this was bad. The cold food was warm and even the soup was lukewarm. I won't be going back, but there was an even larger concern. I went to the bathroom, I was horrified. I have never seen a restroom so nasty, covered with black mold. There was water standing at the base of the wall that was visibly being dripped into. there is feces caulked into the toilet bases and the handles of the sink were caked with something that can't be described. We travel quite extensively and I have never seen a restroom so dangerous. How does the Health department allow this? Disgusting! read more

There are some buffet items that were worth a second visit, and others worth avoiding altogether. First time here and I think it's a solid 3.5 experience, and I'd return when I'm the buffet mood. Favorites were: fried chicken wings, chicken skewers, fried rice, mushrooms, the chicken with the jalapenos, the coconut and fried shrimp, green beans and the egg drop soup. Even the banana pudding was pretty good. read more

I love coming here with my son and any of his friends. The service for lunch is pretty hit and miss, most of the time I am lucky if I get a refill on my drink or plates picked up, but it is a buffet, so I really don't mind. I am there for the good stuff, the rest is how quickly the restaurant wants to turn over tables. They are priced affordable, around $16 for dinner and $13 for lunch. I really enjoyed their sushi bar and their teriyaki chicken skewers. My son loves their soup, noodles, fresh fruit and sushi as well. Overall, I will continue to come back as they are pretty consistent and I enjoy the food. read more

Great variety! Food good. Sushi selection and display were very good. We sat in the large area in the back because we had a large group. THAT WAS DISGUSTING! Table and chairs were dirty (greasy and crumbs) and the floors were filthy! Bring your own cleaning / sanitizing wipes for the table and chairs!! read more

WOW COMPLETE TURN AROUND MOVING UP TO NUMBER 2 cHINESE BUFFET IN ALL OF ARIZONA. Right behind numbe1 Pacific seafood buffet Glendale. Got there at 12:15 PM FOR S FANTASTIC LUNCH. PRICES ARE AS LOW AS CAN BE. Great lunch or great takeout per pound prices. 100% hot food fresh food delicious tasting everything. All trays full. So many delicious except different choices. Seems like the whole restaurant was sparkly clean. Don't hesitate to eat here for lunch. Authentic old school Chinese cooking. Haven't tried dinner lunch was perfect 5 stars plus. . Easy to get to off the 303 buckeye area. NO NEED TO GO ALL OVER LOOKING FOR A CHINESE BUFFET AT VERY REASONABLE PRICES AND TOP OF THE LINE QUALITY AND FRESHNESS.THIS RESTAURANT IMPROVED 100% no negatives. BEST CHINESE RESTAURANT IN THE WEST VALLEY. No one else compares in quality taste and prices read more

What a wide variety of tasty treats, including a sushi bar, but also good sweet and sour soup, best egg foo young I've had in ages, chicken wings, plenty of vegetable dishes like string beans and broccoli (both cooked perfectly so still a nice bright green) CA rolls, shrimp, egg rolls, octopus, seaweed salad, and way too much other stuff and none of it disappointed me, although I wish all of it could have been warmer. Vegetarians could have plenty to satisfy them and I saw kids at one of the tables happily enjoying pizza. Something for everyone here and the reasonable lunch prices make it affordable too. Attentive server kept my water filled and took my emptied dishes away. Although there isn't much of an atmosphere, it's fine for an economical buffet and it was clean with staff regularly stirring up the buffet items, bringing fresh food out, and wiping the drips. I'll be back! read more

China Buffet - Sushi bar and buffet had plenty of choices and everything looked clean - Chinese Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Its a buffet, what do you expect? I ended going mostly sushi, multiple plates then stir fry. Only deep fried I tried was sweet & sour pork. Average. If your looking for Vegas style buffet, this ain't that. Neighborhood place, yes. read more

Usually the food is hot but lately it is not. The bins are not replenished and what is there is already cold. Have had a queasy stomach twice now likely from being served cold food. Not planning on returning there read more

Came in at the time of opening. Not the selection I'm used to. Sushi was ok. Floors were sticky. Staff were great at picking up plates that were empty. Overall just fine. Not a place I'd come back to. read more

Food is a good. They keep the food filled. Service is good. Love their Hot & Sour soup.

I gave it 1 star & the question that popped up was, "what could improve?"Ans: Your food, entire menu. This isn't Chinese food. I'm Asian, and I've never had Chinese food this horrible. The only thing that I merely enjoyed was the hot & sour soup & root beer drink. Everything I tried was cold (other than the soups) & tasted like it was sitting on the warmers for hours. The fried rice was tasteless & mushy, the beef was chewy, the chicken was dry, the shrimp was rubbery, the sushi was awful, the noodles after the first bite I had to spit out, etc. The server was attentive & so was the hostess. But you can get this service at most places. That's the reason for the 1 star, otherwise it would have been negative stars. I don't go to buffets but I decided to bc it was on my way home, and figure I'll give it a try after reading a few reviews & was craving Chinese food. Worst decision!!! The ppl that gave it 1+ stars don't know Chinese food. Or they go here just to fill up on garbage. Dessert, 3 types of jello, bananas, watermelon & pudding. Sounded safe but cheap. Was too disgusted that I decided to avoid it. Stay away unless you like tasteless, cold, very poor quality food. It should be a violation to serve food this disgusting. read more

China Buffet is my son's favorite and we have enjoyed many family dinners. Always wonderful food and service.

Everything could be improved. Service was horrible, asking workers questions and they just walked away with no answer. Food wasn't all bad but what do you mean there's an hour wait for crab??? This is a buffet!! Waiting an hour for crab and no manager available to speak to made the experience even worse. Not satisfied at all. read more

I think I left a review before ? But out of other buffets in the area, I do prefer this place. Food is very consistent. Not to bad of a flavor and the staff is pretty fast at making sure you have your drink. It does upset my stomach a bit once I'm home but I think that's just me and my old age. The place is always busy and has been open for the 20 years I been going here. It's just basic food but for the price and the choices you get , it's a good deal. read more

We are regulars here but the last few times the food has gotten gradually worse while the price has gone up. Tonight was the last straw and we won't be back. The food is cold and over cooked, the service is bad, and it's generally a bad experience. Very disappointing read more

Food is overall very well. I like the pricing averages. It's not gourmet quality but there is a few staple things like the plantains and sushi that hit every single time. The salad bar kinda strays me away and I don't know why for that matter but it doesn't look appealing. Also the dry desserts and ice cream behind the sushi bar look more appetizing than their pudding and jello section. That section along with the salad bar look sad. read more

The food was honestly horrible I came with my boyfriend around 1pm the fries and egg rolls tasted like it had been out for hours they are not constantly changing the rotation of the food not to mention when I went for the dessert table there was flies on the dessert i do not recommend coming here it is one of the most horrible experiences I've had with a buffet read more

I would say this is an above average buffet. Everything was fresh when e went for lunch. There was enough to choose from that you could easily find something good. I qould recommend a try here read more

We have dined at this location 4 times and will continue. The staff are friendly, helpful and fast. The food is fresh, hot, varied and excellent flavor. Often times, buffet food is soggy, mushy and each dish tastes the same. Not at this China Buffet!!!! Keep up the great work!!! read more

Food was bland and tasted a bit old. Didn't eat some foods because I felt I would get food poisoning. Cheap, not worth it if you only feel safe eating a couple items. read more

Food was good, wide variety. Clean and well laid out. Great price and nice decor. Typical Chinese buffet, with some surprises. We enjoyed ourselves. read more

i just ate the restaurant and it always good !! We left a tip of cash and i accidentally left a 50 and 3 ! The waiter tracked us down in the parking to give us back the 50 ! he only kept the $3 and would not take anymore !! We were already in the car ! I could not believe how honest he was ! unbelievable !!! read more

Everything we tried was cold and very bland, tried to talk to the manager and he acted like he couldn't understand English. When I asked about getting a discount maybe or something he told me there's nothing he could do. I responded I'll let people know how nasty the food was he all the sudden understood English and told me bullsh@t and get out. I would not recommend this place to a homeless person. Very poor service, very nasty food! read more

We got there around 12 noon. All the food I put on my plate was cool. I had some egg drop soup that was extremely HOT, but everything else was cold to my surprise. It really seemed like the owners didn't care anymore. The place looked like a disaster, boxes, and crap stored all over the dinner room. My chair was falling apart, I expected to be on the floor any minute. I REALLY CANT BELIEVE THE HEALTH DEPT HASN'T SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN!!!! read more

I'm surprised that they open the buffet during the pandemic. They only offer dinning in, don't have outdoor setting at all, but they seems very careful. They provide disposable gloves for everyone for dinning, staffs and customers wear mask. They don't rearranged the tables at all, but it seems the customers spread out. I caught an elderly man didn't wear mask when he was getting the food at the buffet, it freaked me out for few seconds. I told to one of the staffs and she quickly addressed the problem. Although they follow the rules, but I still didn't feel comfortable to eat the food from buffet, so I ordered from the menu instead and stayed away from the buffet. Food was good and I really liked it. read more

If I was ever told the food would be sub-par, I'd say, "No way!!" The hot entrés (spare ribs, egg rolls, fried rice, lo mein, chicken dishes, etc.) were all luke-warm; and the "hot" tea was weak, without flavor and/or body. When I told management, they didn't care and/or offer an apology. My impression: bill paid - next customer, please. read more
