    $10.49 Lunch, $12.90 Dinner w/ drinks extra.

    I always feel curious when I read reviews saying some place is their "Worst Place Evaa!! " and want to try them out which I did so my review follows. Lufkin is not N.Y. nor L.A. so my expectations were a little bit lower but the "China Hibachi Buffet" certainly exceeded them all! CHB is as nice a Chinese Restuarant as I've been to anywhere. It's located in a strip mall so doesn't look prestigious from the outside but has all the stereotypical Chinese accoutrements as any nice Chinese place would. The entry is protected by brushed stainless steel doors inlaid with figurines everywhere except on the handles and glass. I stopped and photographed each buffet table and I think there are eight. At about 3pm on a Saturday. All the buffet tables were well stocked with dishes being restocked or replaced regularly. They've got a fresh sushi bar and hot grill which I guess is for anything you can imagine that they don't have out already although I can't guess what that might be. Baked Salmon, stuffed crab, Shrimp, and all the beef 'n' broccoli, General Tso's chicken, Moo Goo Gai Pan and a lot more is waiting for you. They have a VIP room for whoever reserved it. I took over a dozen photos which I'll add after posting this. The prices are posted as you come in. It's about $10.50 for lunch and $12.50 for dinner with drinks being extra. Yes Mr Cheapskate, you can bring your date here for under $30, although getting her drunk may cost extra. I didn't check so ‍ In closing I suggest that whoever wasn't pleased at the CHB just can't be pleased!

    I've been in this town for only a couple of months and today I was surprised by horrible customer service at this restaurant. My brother came to visit and wanted China Hibachi Buffet. When we asked for To Go boxes, the young lady at the counter practically threw the boxes at us and walked away. I paid with a credit card and was waiting for her to provide a pen. When she gave it to me, she said, "Here." She attempted to take the pen back before I finished my signature. The rudeness was so unnecessary. When my brother asked if her day was going okay, she claimed to have a headache. A headache should not cause such terrible customer service.

    The entrees had a good flavor but everything was so greasy. I have never had so much grease in my…read morefood in all my life. Especially the egg rolls. They were literally solid grease. I had to throw them away. Too expensive to just have to throw them away, but I just couldn't stomach it. They had a good flavor, but I couldn't take the grease. Also, their seafood dish that was shrimp and scallops -- the scallops they show are in photos are the pretty sea scallops, but the scallops in this dish were so small, I couldn't even find them at first. I didn't know where they were. It was really misleading and very pricey to only get little tiny bay scallops that were smaller than pearl onions. I won't go back there.

    It's been a while since my previous review, unfortunately the food hasn't gotten any better. Pan…read moreafter pan of pitiful offerings, every chicken dish was dry and stringy. The obviously frozen shrimp were overcooked to the point of chewiness. What little bit of meat in the entrees, whether it was chicken, shrimp, or beef, was crowded out by the vegetables. Even the battered and fried chicken pieces for sweet and sour chicken were dried out, and the sauce was a strange thick mess with very little flavor. I hoped the egg rolls would be the saving grace, because how hard would it be to mess up egg rolls? It turns out that it was pretty effortless to make egg rolls that suck, the wrappers weren't crispy, but the cabbage was under-cooked so it still had a bit of a bite, and again, didn't really have sweet and sour sauce, so I had to load up on soy sauce for the egg rolls. The service was- meh. I got one refill and two table visits while I was there, even tho there was only one other table with diners. All-in-all I'm pretty disgusted with what I got, it wasn't worth half of what ended up being $15 after the tip. I don't splurge very often, and certainly wish I could rewind and make another choice, but at least going forward I know I won't be returning to Chen's!
