The food and service were great. The restaurant was clean and the staff were helpful. Give them a try.

I don't know why this place has godawful reviews. I think people are forgetting that it is a cheap Chinese buffet. If you are expecting high quality Chinese food, this is not the place. It is a pretty standard buffet; all the food is pretty good and it is not at all overpriced. Yes, there was food that was a little stale and cold, but most of the food was hot and fresh. They were constantly refilling the food as well, which I really appreciated. I would recommend it if you just want a cheap Chinese buffet. I've been there twice, and each time it was an overall good experience. read more

China Wok - Chinese Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

The ladies serving us were very rude. I've eaten in twice and both times they seemed disgruntled I was ordering an entree rather than getting the lunch buffet. They rushed us the whole time and were staring/pointing at our table and talking about us. I asked if there was a problem because it was getting very uncomfortable, to which they responded no and backed off. It made the whole lunch date not enjoyable. I will never be eating at this establishment again and have since told many friends and family about the experience. read more

Rice was hard, chicken was just gross, not good service, i normally get more than one plate but didn't even eat one.

Biggest roaches I've ever seen. I don't recommend this place. Staff was rude, and the food in the buffet was cold.

I usually go into detail about the restaurant or company that I review on here, but I don't want to waste your time or mine so I will make this quick. Food: Horrible, Rancid and just plain nasty. Tasted like week old reheated chinese food that you found in the back of your refrigerator. Service: Horrible. As soon as we walked in we were yelled at that it was now dinner not lunch. I felt like saying did I ask you to inform me of the time??? We never saw the waitress except to give her our drink order, never again for refills or anything. Atmosphere: Filthy, smelled like wet dog, bathroom was disgusting and there was no air conditioning so we roasted in there. I wouldn't suggest this place to my own worst enemy, because it would be cruel and unusual punishment!!! STAY AWAY FROM HERE!!! read more

I'm not a fan of buffets, but this was the highest rated chinese restaurant in this area that was opened and the pictures looked pretty good. The staff was all very nice and the restaurant was clean. I liked that all the food had distinct flavors, unlike many restaurants. I wish more of the food was labeled, especially the sushi. I only tried one roll, as the rest were not identifiable to me. I enjoyed most of the food. They had cakes that looked good, but were pretty dried out, they need to get different containers for them to keep the air out. The won ton soup was very flavorful and I liked that you could add green onions and they had the crispy noodles. Overall, I enjoyed my lunch and would visit again if in the area and wanting chinese, but I don't think I'd make a special trip to get it. I was also disappointed that one of the pictures appeared to have something like walnut shrimp, but it was not on the buffet. It was the main draw for me. read more

This is absolutely the best buffet in Knoxville! The plates you may make are incredible. The decorations are always beautiful. They serve delicious pieces every time. read more

Sushi is garbage, rice is hard, filling is...unsatisfying, to say the least. This place used to be really good, but they've gone downhill fast in the past few years. My family used to eat here monthly, because it's close, but the quality is falling to a point that we aren't anymore. read more

Staff is always friendly, greeted fast and with a smile! drink order taken immediately, food is always hot and fresh. Price is great for the quality you get! 10/10 recommend! read more

Service is god awful. Kevin is the most rude and entitled server. If you eat at this restaurant, good luck because they will treat you terribly and still expect you to tip them well. read more

I am so glad I found this inconspicuous Chinese restaurant in a shopping center in East Knoxville. China Wok has become my new all-time favorite Chinese buffet in Knoxville. There are other Chinese in Knoxville that have an enormous selection of food, however, China Wok's approach seems to be having all the favorites on the buffet and none of the fluff. My favorite part of China Wok is the sushi. They have a sushi chef who makes the sushi fresh. I think it's delicious. It's a step up from sushi you'll find at Kroger or Publix - but not as good as you'd find at a sushi specialty restaurant. For me, it's perfect to fulfill that craving I have for sushi sometimes without having to pay an arm and a leg at a place like Nama for sushi. This place is wonderful. Great bang for your buck - and they have tasty and satisfying items on the buffet. I visit China Wok at least twice a month. read more

The Buffett was good and they had lots of choices. The noodles were thick and the sushi was fresh!

Love this place its not just conveniently in distance but moderately priced and everyone who works Herr are always polite & friendly read more

China Wok - General tso egg roll and fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

The food was ok. Can't honestly complain due to the pricing. But my waitress was asking for a tip, even though she only gave me a drink. I don't mind tipping if you're being consistently useful, but only giving me a drink and expecting a tip is outrageous. The moment she realized I wasn't giving her a tip. She scoffed and murdered something in her language, and walked away. read more

I have ate here several times and the food is always good and it is not overly priced.

I ate there for the first time about 2 weeks ago. I loved it. The food was delicious and it was fresh, and I loved their variety. They have stuff on their buffet I havent seen at other buffets. One of the best I have been to. I plan on going back today! read more

I think the food is great. My family got me hooked on the food. The dessert if ok for me but the ice cream is awesome. The reason why I put a 4's that I had to go to the restroom. I had to hold my breath because it smelled awful I looked like it hadn't been cleaned ever. If I didn't need to go badly I would have left the restroom. The health department needs to be called just for the restroom. read more

Excellent Buffet Good mix of traditional favorites and some lovely surprises too The crab Rangoons are very good just a little sweet like I like them. read more

Food was one of the worst of any Asian buffets I've ever been to. Service was ehh.... The server brought the check and stood there awkwardly until I handed her my card, as if she couldn't come back for it for some reason. read more

I went in on the suggestion of a co-worker food wasn't proper temperature even after cooked on the grill to order that was barely warm I advised the chef I had a severe allergy to peppers and the previous customer asked for extra Sriracha sauce which got into my food so I couldn't eat it I spoke to a female who said bring my receipt back for a replacement I was willing to see if it would be different but when I went in the guy working the counter refused to honor the promise of the lady I spoke with ... just as well I have no desire to die anyway ... BEWARE!! read more

Always fresh sushi, never had bad food here! Food is always hot in the dishes. Customer service is great. And affordable!

Not awesome. I had beef lo mein combo. Yes there was a lot of food, but it lacked flavor. It needed a LOT of soy sauce. The peas in the fried rice were freezer burned. Not likely I'll be back. read more

Gross!! Cold food. Like 6 options. Get them in and put like cattle. Do not recommend unless you are desperate or drunk.
