    Food is very bland. Everything there is watered down soy sauce, hot sauce and soap. I really wouldn't recommend this place

    Food: 5; Staff: 4.5; Ambiance: 4; Location: 3 Will give this…read morean overall rating of 4 of 5 - however, my "points off" from a 5 have nothing to do with the food. I've read a few reviews on here that complain about the food. The fact is that EVERY buffet diner will have some food that sat out a little too long from time to time. You will never avoid that. The good news here is that this staff is very attentive to the food lines and in the 30 plus times we've dined there, it is RARE that the food is cold, or "unappealing" (according to one reviewer). We have always found the food to be warm-hot, tasty and of good quality. There is a nice variety and for me, I specifically love the coconut shrimp and Onion Shrimp. Everyone won't like every food they present - I, for one, don't like the Japanese style chicken they serve - but that is an individual taste and doesn't mean the food is "bad". Dessert line is limited but sufficient - and unlike other buffet's we've frequented, the ice cream machine has never run out. Another nice benefit of this buffet is their takeout. You can come in and, for a fixed price, fill a takeout container with as much as you can grab. They will have a bag, utensils and fortune cookie waiting for you when you are finished. The staff is usually very attentive and efficient. Yes, one or two people that work there aren't "talkative", and some language difficulties can appear to be "anger", or "rudeness", but the fact is they do their job. They will ask children their ages - because they have an age cutoff for their pricing - and unfortunately many adults will lie to get the cheaper price. The children are most always honest. It's not "badgering" like one person reviewed - it's their right. Now - why I reviewed as a 4 and not a 5? The location is in an awkward place. It is one block over from the "red brick" main street and near the southwestern outskirts of the town. This is mainly an industrial area, and the roads around the restaurant are less than ideal. The building is older, and their popularity has out-grown their space so many times it gets crowded there, and parking becomes limited (although there is a parking lot area across the street from them). This is actually great for the food turnover, keeping it fresh and hot. It would benefit them to look into moving to a larger facility within the main area of the town (maybe buy out the Hidalgo's building?). The ambiance is nice, and there are TV screens usually showing some sports event. Overall, you are missing out on a hidden Chinese buffet gem if you don't visit this place. We've lived in many different states, and King Buffet resides in the top 3 or 4 of our buffet lists.

    There is an abundance of choices, but not all are appealing or tasty. The egg rolls were cold and…read moregreasy. The shrimp and onions were cold and hard. Dessert left something to be desired. The restaurant is a small pre-fab building three blocks down a dark and deserted street off of the main road. Parking was not plentiful, but I found a space on the side after one loop around. I wouldn't chance walking very far from that place. The wait staff was extremely rude. Their posted hours were until 9 pm. At 8 pm, the kitchen staff began vacuuming and sweeping while customers were trying to enjoy their dinners. They began rushing customers. I was presented my bill while eating my first plate. When I was the last one in the restaurant, they yelled at me in broken English that they close at 8:30 pm. They were visibly perturbed that I wanted to use the bathroom, waiting near the door for me to finish. I paid my bill and, against my better judgment, left a tip. No "thank you" from the woman at the register. No "come again." So, I can guarantee that I won't ever drive a half hour to go to this place ever again. In comparison to quality Chinese buffets that I have experienced in other cities, this restaurant was definitely below par.

    I ordered through their website. They were very prompt. The food was hot, fresh and tasted good…read more Their portion sizes were good. Overall, for takeout, it was a good choice. I would probably update this review after trying the restaurant in person. I can always tell better about the quality and service if served on the spot. But this place was good.

    Use to love this place…read more Local fav of mine for 16+ years! But the last few times I've ordered food.. it was not good sometimes it's not even edible. Flavors were off in some of my favorite dishes. Rice is dry and off. Dry over cooked, chewy meat that you end up having to spit out. I remember the old family that use to run this place. Them and the kids were so sweet. I remember coming in and they would be doing homework or coloring! Food was always amazing! Not sure if they sold or if this is a new management issue. But it's defiantly a shame. Also I'll be the one to say it idc. Common decency is lacking and it needs to be called out! I waited an hour and a half for my food last night. Called at closing to see if they were still delivering it... they made a mistake and thought I was picking it up. I said no...it's delivery. (I'm currently at home sick) She said ok we will send it. It'll be there in 5 min. I hung up. But after a second thought I called back. Cause to me it seems kinda unacceptable to pay full price for what will be cold inedible food again! But instead of making it right with a discount.. or hell even come almond cookies would have been nice! something! The Indian woman snapped at me and said she couldn't give me free food. I never asked for free food. I asked for a discount on hour and a half old food that you guys messed up on. She proceeded to tell me ok..we just won't bring the food. I was taken aback at the lack of customer service and common decency! I just wanted the soup. but they have a $13 delivery min. And with how Ill and weak I was feeling it really sucked to know that after an hour and a half of waiting I would not be getting edible food or food at all for that matter! So yea. I was very upset, sick, weak and hungry. And may I add the lady on the phone told me when I made this review that they will just say I was disgruntled! Like I didn't have a right to be. They were rude last time I called about my sesame chicken being inedible, which is why I stick with the sweet and sour chx if I do order. It's a safer bet. But now I will not be returning at all. Plenty of chances and this place isn't getting any better. ‍ I hope this place finds its way again but if they don't make major changes... i don't expect them to last much longer.
