My husband and I went on a weekend(dinner buffet) for the first time. The food was delicious, very reasonable price. So much to choose from. Waitresses were pleasant and attentive. Everyone there seemed to be enjoying the food. It was a clean, calm and happy environment. We're definitely going back. Thank you, China Buffet for existing. My heart and belly is content. read more

We go for the crab legs ! Last night we took our friends here. This was our second time. Crab legs were spot on. It was busier the first night we went, but both trips they kept up with the crab and all food. The prices are more than fair and the good is hood. read more

We very much liked this restaurant. It did not smell of old oil which is a sure way to get me to walk out the door. A lot of different options. It is a Sunday so they had crab which is one of my favorites I don't k ow if they have this every day. We will put this on our come back list. read more

And when I asked why it was like that she said "they put something in it to make it like that " like WHAT EW and costed SO MUCH for how horrid it was . Spend ur money else where ! You've been warned ! read more

Good buffet The sushi is great I prefer to come after 12:00 otherwise the food is not real warm....things such as chicken wings

Food was mediocre, but you don't go to a buffet for quality food-you go for quantity. They filled the food quickly. The teriyaki chicken was good. read more

I was extremely disappointed with this restaurant. We had been craving a good Chinese buffet for a month and finally one night decided to try China buffet. We go in and get seated. Order drinks and my husband gets his cup and says "it's soaked on the outside." Wipes it down and sees it's cracked all the way down the side. Food... it was not good.Hands down one of the worst Chinese restaurants I have ever been to. Nasty noodles, every kind of chicken i tried was all breading and little chicken and extremely dry! Crab Rangoon wonton was missing the crab Rangoon lol just wonton wrappers. Cold green beans. Several items my husband ate, he spit out. Sushi is made in house. My only concern with it was how old the raw fish was based on the color of the salmon and how awkward it was for the sushi chef to just stand there and watch you lol. For 14$ per person it was absolutely not worth it. Not even the slightest. We should of asked for our money back after we let the waitress take our full plates away. We will never go back. read more

The fried rice was horrible. The dining area was dirty and the fans and vents had layers of dust on them.

This was some of the worst food I've had at a buffet. I came in with my young family and they sat us in the back by a bunch of boxes that clearly should have been thrown out or put out of sight of customers. The older lady in charge clearly has a attitude and is not friendly. I will never come back here save yourself the waste of food you will end up not eating. read more

I love this place. I have been going here for years and they have always been good. Once in a while I will get something tough like chicken but extremely rare. It's a buffet and that can happen. It is a great value and I am going there today. read more

The food was barely warm, eggplant patties were cold, so many of the dishes were mixed together basically all taste the same. Husband is vegetarian so thought this would be a good choice. Go to a restaurant read the menu get what you like, don't settle for China Buffet Not worth the $$ read more

We really enjoyed the food staff was awesome and the food was fresh with lots of variety. This was my first but definitely not my last trip to China buffet since the pandemic. Me and my family love eating here read more

Great place to settle in with all of your favorites. Lunch is always fresh and delicious. The Chef at the Sushi bar will customize your sushi fetish and leave you completely satisfied. Icecream, soft serve style, really reminds me of Tastee Freeze icecream from my childhood. The cuisine is worth the price and definitely one of my favorites. read more

China Buffet - Great place for lunch. Eat early. - Chinese Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Definitely not service dog friendly. I walked in with my SD and the manager asked me if he was my service and my friend and I both said yes. This guys informed me that my dog was not allowed to leave the table. I could have had a medical episode and my dog couldn't help because he was stuck under the table. Definitely need to review the ada law and get educated. read more

They want you to wear a mask and gloves like your doing surgery. I'm fully vaccinated. I left and went to another restaurant. Even the cdc says masks aren't necessary now. read more

Very unflavorfull food it all taste the same everything is chicken so if you don't want chicken this place is not for u. Some of the food is reheated cause hard and dried out . This is a place for just a belly stuffer. Can't tell what it was but it filled you up read more

Food is not fresh and the salmon pieces were swimming in water and butter really nasty, and just like every other review you get bad diarrhea after eating here. Sushi was crunchy as if it were sitting there for along time. The meats were clearly low quality there are some things that taste fairly good but considering how bad everything else was it's not worth it. Go to the Hawaiian bbq across the street sooo much better than this. read more

I don't care what anyone says, I've dined here multiple times and have had great experiences here. They seat me where I request, the waiters are always making their rounds, and the buffet and sushi bar is killer period. Anyone that says other wise is makkng excuses and picky. Best chinese buffet in Suprise. read more

Steer clear of this place. Went during lunch wasn't busy and food wasn't fresh. Lots of options but I didn't like anything I tired. You get what you pay for... read more

there is lots of options from sushi rolls and oysters to crab legs and dumplings..food was good. And bit pricey on the weekends went on a Sunday My kids really like their dessert option favorite was green tea ice cream read more

The food is horrible. It isn't fresh, it's cold and many dishes have a "mush" consistency. The dessert area is the only redeeming part, and not by much. read more

TERRIBLE!!! The food was cold and not very tasty. The place had just opened so the food should have been piping hot. I think the food was leftovers from the day before. I hope my friend and I don't get sick. When we complained to the manager she acted like she didn't believe us and only gave us $2.50 off so a horrible lunch cost us twenty bucks. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!! read more

Not sure what people have against this place. Its probably one of the best Chinese Buffet's I've gone to. Large selection, good food, good service. Their sushi bar is surprisingly good (and made fresh) and their newly expanded dessert bar is mighty tasty as well. My coworker even goes there, get's everything you'd probably avoid at a buffet (seafood) and always lives to tell the tale. Check the local paper and you can usually find a coupon or two. read more

Above average buffet. Huge variety of food. Decor is a bit dated. This place has all the standard Chinese fair. This place could sure use a professional cleaning service to come in and clean it up! They also overcharged me on my credit card. I caught it. They said the purchase would be pending on my credit card account for three days before being removed. read more

First off, we come here often and have enjoyed eating here for the most part, but now I'm not so sure we will be back.. We ate here tonight and all of the food was pretty decent, but one of us got food poisoning from the raw salmon and/or raw tuna.. We really look forward to the sushi buffet, but after tonight, never again! Update: Two days later and still violently ill from the seafood from this place! read more

I think after being here numerous times, I should write a review. I am a fan, so the 4 Stars are apropos. My gf's 5 year old loves this place, and will ask to go everytime upon passing it. Let's face it, the Chinese buffet options in Phoenix suck, which is really unfortunate. I think the collective angst about this is being taken out on all of the Chinese buffets of the valley. That's just my opinion, I could be wrong. For what it is, a chinese buffet in Phoenix, this is quality. This is the better Chinese buffet in Surprise. The other one is good too, but not great, just like this place. Here's what I've come to expect from this place. The service is always great. The servers are friendly, and affable. But, the food is ALWAYS hit and miss. Something may be good one visit, and dull and flat on another. The fried rice, and lo mein are great examples. The rice may be great on one visit, oily, sort of greasy, and full of gristle the next. Seems like things lean towards "greasy" if they're not good. I deplore the TV set to CNN, or whatever other news station they decide to put on. I'll go out of my way to not have to sit under, or near that thing. We'll alternate between the 2, I'm sure, but until something significantly changes at the other place, we'll continue to dine here. read more

I used to come here a few years ago when i was working in the area, the group would like to meet here for lunch occasionally. I haven't been back in a while and a few weeks ago I was craving chinese food but I wanted variety, I decided to stop in and get a take-out box. It's hard to gauge what to expect when anything is sold by the pound, a lot of things are sold by the pound but that doesn't necessarily mean they're good. for example, Dog Food, Fertilizer, Nuts, Fruit, Candy, Gold Ingots, Seafood, Horse Hair, Cookies, Soap, Coffee, Turkey, Building Materials, Meat Products, Olives, Scrap Metal, Uranium and apparently Chinese Food. I filled up a take-home box and didn't feel I was overstuffing the box or having any difficulty closing the box, but apparently this was 2.4 pounds of food and was over $10 for some cheap takeout. I'm somewhat convinced they use MSG and ingredients that make the food literally heavier. Not wanting to give up, a friend and I stopped by here last weekend to eat lunch and dined in. the items on the buffet aren't bad and scratch the itch. But everything is mediocre as you would expect buffet food to be. the 1 star comes from how the food made me sick that evening, and made me feel nauseous for most of the night. I will most likely not be back. read more

This restaurant was recommended to me in my hunt for Chinese take-out. I ordered Mandarin Chicken, which looked and smelled great. But the chicken was so tough I couldn't chew it. I'm not exaggerating, my garbage disposal couldn't grind it up either, I had to dig it out to put it in the trash. Did they grab food that had been drying out on the buffet and package it up for me as take-out? read more

The food is always fresh, with very nice variety to choose from. Always a very good dining experience

After reading many of the pretty negative reviews I took a decision I did not regret. My cousin and I went over for lunch and saw a clean place and a very helpful staff. My cousin and I sampled many of the dishes and really enjoyed most of them. The fried Chicken was somewhat dry but the large variety of dishes provided an opportunity to pick the ones that would make a good appetizing meal. My Cousin was a fan of the Sushi bar and the various deserts that were available. My personal rating would be somewhere between 3 and 4 stars. I would consider this place for a future visit. read more

This was my first time here and I was pleasantly surprised. The interior was not the greatest but I did enjoy the food. There was a good variety of food and everything I had was good with no complaints. Along with the food, the staff was very friendly and cleared the table of extra plates quickly. read more

Chinese food is best eaten at a buffet in my opinion. The food is exotic and usually has things in it you've never tried or even heard of for that matter. So for you to be able to try everything at least once is a great thing. China Buffet is a local favorite because of their price and selection. They are one of the only Chinese buffets that has sushi; probably because sushi is Japanese, but I love them for it. They have seven buffet counters including the sushi one and there is very little that I have tried that I didn't like. Their prices start as low as $6.99 for lunch and with sushi being on the menu, that is stellar. read more

Best buffet!!!! Crab legs huge never seen in buffets that size like weapons!!!! Huge sea food selection! Clean! Friendly staff! read more

China Buffet - Yummyyyyyyy - Chinese Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Chinese food in buffet. Not planning on visiting here again. I am not a fan of employees cleaning windows right next to the table I am eating at. Spraying window cleaner by my plate is not a good idea. :) The food was so-so and service OK. What else to say? Wish I could like the place, its close to home. read more

We used to be regulars but stopped going because the staff all changed and they just don't care. Waited a few years and after checking their health department report decided to try it again. It's even worse now! We tried 3 times and every time half the meat you get is refrigerator cold not even room temp. Even veggies are cold. You can see steam coming off the table so why isn't the meat hot?? They don't care either there's steam so what's the problem...they need thermometers to check their food temps! Someone dropped shrimp in the sweet and sour sauce I don't trust that they actually dumped it they probably just picked the shrimp out . Well that was the last $50 we waste there. read more

Not as happy with the restaurant this visit. At 5:30 they were out of lettuce on the salad bar. The food was reasonably warm but not hot. What really turned me off was the bathroom. It was filthy. The urinal looked liked it hadn't been cleaned for a month. The service was good, however, but our overall experience was just average. read more

Used to be a good place to go but has gone down hill. Restrooms are falling apart with roaches everywhere. The food was meh and my drink had insect pieces (wings and legs) it was disgusting and nauseating and when I told the waitress she said nothing just took my cup and gave me more water. Will not be going back read more

I'm torn. I give the actual eat-in buffet only ONE star, but take-out/ delivery is definitely FIVE stars. So order take out here. It's amazing. Especially the Crab Puffs. Don't eat the buffet. The buffet is usually dried out, overcooked, not impressive. read more
