My son and I went to Chinatown yesterday after a long time. The Lady behind the counter i think the owner? Was not very friendly, had an attitude as soon as we walked in. Lady. If you don't want to be there stay home,that's all I can say! Our waitress was very nice and helpful though. Thank you to her.​ read more

Great place to eat! Lots of selection and attentive service! Very clean and lots of tasty selections. Only thing I would ding them on is food is not always really hot! Today was good but, times the food has just slightly over warm. Good food at a good price! Very nice place for dinner! read more

I wanted to be fair, so I have intentionally waited until we have been here three visits. We have gone for lunch each time. The first was while in a hotel when we first arrived in June to move into our "forever home" in Staunton (about 10 miles away). We went again a month or so after moving in. We went today (Sunday lunch) because we wanted to pick up a few things at Walmart. Understand where I (we) are coming from. My wife spent her childhood in Hawaii, and her father is Japanese. I am an Army veteran, and have been to plenty of Asian restaurants around the world. I do have a tough standard. I am sincerely not trying to punch down. I want this place to be good, it would be better for my retirement years for it to be good. It is the closest option for buffet. Our Staunton option is a menu only, and it is also not a good option, at all. I understand that a place needs to cater to its patrons to be profitable. I am not saying they don't try, I'm not saying they don't care. I do understand that americanized and (bland) is what they need to lean into. Our lunch today was $40 and we both left unsatisfied. I am willing to eat anything and have the girth to prove it. My wife is a bit more particular, but certainly has the ability to provide a decent value judgement on the things she chooses. There just are not consistently good choices to be had here. The "sushi" for example is marginal at best. There are more breaded/fried items than truly exist in Asian menus at other places I have been. The other items almost always have a sauce that is salt and sugar forward. There are very few spices/textures that I would expect from a Chinese menu. It is relatively clean, the people working here do try to do a good job. I appreciate the effort required to put all this together for us. It has the standard Chinese restaurant decorations (I think there is a kit that can be ordered from somewhere), but they haven't overdone it. I do understand and accept that people like this place, and appreciate the offerings. I am in no way looking down on their preference, [To each their Own] and please continue to enjoy it. If you are however, just passing through, it may not be the best stop for good Chinese food, okay "food" sure, but not on par with other options I have enjoyed. read more

They have every food you could think of they change them out every hour so they don't go bad and they have really good employees

Thumbs up! The hotel guy suggested this place and we are satisfied. The food is hot and delicious. There is a hibachi and sushi area if that's what you're looking for. The place is clean and nice inside. The thing I want to highlight is the service! The wait staff kept our table clear of dirty dishes and my water glass was topped off numerous times. We felt it was well priced as well. Literally no complaints! read more

We've been going here for awhile now and it is always a hit and miss if the visit was worth it. Sometimes everything is spot on and incredible but other times everything has been sitting for awhile and old. They typically tend to have the usual same dishes out with no deviation from them. It's very hard to pinpoint the best time to go and get the best food. Over the years the quality of everything has diminished. They have over the past year decreased their plate sizes available and changed their silverware as well. The servers there are always kind and taking plates from the table throughout the meal and checking to see when you need a refill and ready for your check. They usually try to eat you close together with others and sections within the buffet. The price seems very fair for an all-you-can-eat buffet. This time the only things that were fresh were the Pepsi and when we were keeping an eye out for fresh Chinese Donuts (that weren't hard as a rock). Otherwise everything we had had been sitting out for a while. We will always come back here just wish more times we were luckier with fresher food when we go! read more

Food is great, lots of options :-) service wasn't wonderful but will be back for the CRAB RANGOON alone :-)

Does china food ever taste different. NO. NEVER. I've eaten Chinese from coast to coast and It only slightly varies in taste so my criteria is a little different. So my review will be more about the following. This is one of the better places to eat Chinese. The price is reasonable. The selection is plentiful. The establishment is very clean and they keep the food well stocked. The dishes are all done very well considering that it's no different from the many many I've had. I enjoyed it and will come back. The lunch is $8 and worth every penny. read more

I love this place. I'm so glad they have a buffet. There is so much to choose from. The waitress are alway so friendly and keep your drinks full. Stop in and try it read more

Not only is the service at this buffet great, but the selection is garunteed to please anyone. They have some of the best orange chicken and believe it or not ribs that I've ever had. Would highly recommend! read more

We stopped on our way from St. Louis to Chicago. It was an easy on , easy off Rte 55. It was very popular for its buffet which did look fresh even at 8:00 pm on Sunday night.still we ordered off the menu since I didn't want to risk stomach complications. I don't know if this is typical Midwestern "Chinese" fare but they had ketchup and steak sauce on all the tables. Their "duck" sauce had ketchup in it. When I asked for siracha, Thai chili or hot mustard they brought me packets of hot sauce. Hot tea was served in a coffee mug with a tea bag. So the service was good, it was clean and the food was ok just not what I'm used to. read more

Such a blessed experience. The only thing I would say is I wish the buffet had less options and they were better. Like, if they only gave me a couple things and they were cooked fresh that would be a cool way to eat that a buffet should explore. It wouldn't even have to be all-you-can-eat. A single portion of a couple things would be plenty. Every restaurant should have a soft-serve machine. The one here was super cold. I hurt my teeth to eat it. read more

I was very impressed by the quality of food, the price is more than fair, this Chinese buffet is the best I've ever been to. read more

Chinatown - Sushi, shrimp, steak, fried rice and noodles. Everything cooked perfectly, it was a great experience! - Chinese Near Me - Litchfield, Illinois

We started with a white hostess that might as well have been a robot. No smile. No friendly greeting. I cant imagine employing such a person to greet and seat customers. The food - at 7pm looked like most of it had been sitting out for a very long time. Not appealing at all. Taste was not any better. Left this buffett and was still hungry. No smile from any of the other asian workers either. A sad way to conduct business. on a positive note, the ice cream was good. Wont go back. Adult and 8 year old was $24. Waste. read more

Wow great..soup...great buffet...some not hot enough but wing awesome honey bbq taste...cashew chicken good..spicy chicken great..had crawfish and boiled shrimp..great..clean too...everything looked clean..and no dirty plate in pile.... read more

Excellent choices in a full-style Chinese buffet. Although it does try to appeal to a wide variety of tastes and may come off as bland to some, there's plenty of opportunity for you to add your own spices, sauces, etc. if you want to kick up the heat a little bit! I was impressed with the cleanliness of this restaurant and the number of offerings they had. Our crew was certainly satisfied!! read more

For a Chinese buffet, I thought the food was very good. They had a good selection and the food was fresh and hot. Sometimes with a buffet, you have to time them right and go when it's crowded so the food isn't sitting. I would go back. read more

We give Chinatown a 5 as a Chinese buffet goes. The buffet is always full, clean, and fresh. They have a decent selection of items. I can eat there even while I'm practicing Keto. If they are low on something, they always ask if you want more. If they don't have something, they'll make it. The staff are so pleasant, always friendly and welcoming. NOTE:::They NEVER CLOSE EARLY! They never pull the buffet down without making sure that everyone is finished. read more

Visited: August 1st, 2011 I went to this restaurant with my boyfriend and his friend Petey on the third day of our trip. After shopping at the Wal-Mart Supercenter in Litchfield, IL, we were pretty hungry because we didn't eat breakfast. Petey suggested Chinatown because it was in the same area and he said the food was good and cheap. When we walked in, I was amazed on how nice and clean the place was. The buffet selection was good and tasty. I got some fried rice, crab rangoons, and general tso's chicken. I also got some fruit. The honey chicken that my boyfriend and his friend got tasted better though. Our server was so nice and brought us our beverages promptly. When we got the bill, it was just a little over $20 for three people + one soft drink (my boyfriend was the only one that got it) + tax. How sweet is that!!! Most of the Chinese buffets in San Diego cost more than that and the food isn't nearly as tasty. Kudos to Chinatown for some awesome food! :) read more

Usually when we come here the food is decent, as is the service. Today has been by far the worst experience. From the beginning our waiter was super short with us. He would not address or answer my children (they are age 9,9,6, and 1). When my 9 year old son asked for a drink that they didn't have, Sprite, the waiter looks at my mother in law and says "Sierra mist". Like, I'm pretty sure my son can answer for himself... Then as I am up filling my plate, I see one of the workers putting her finger in several foods. Apparently the heater on the middle row is not working... It has been at least half an hour since she 'discovered' that the heaters weren't working. The food is still there, people are still eating it, and it is steady getting colder. Don't think I will be making another return visit... read more

I came here because it was recommended by a local. I did not think it was anything special when compared to other Chinese buffets. They had a good selection along with sushi. I'm not one for buffets, so I didn't each much while here. Honestly, if some one else was paying, I'd come here again. This restaurant did appear to be cleaner than other buffet restaurants. read more

Well-seasoned fresh food. Maybe a bit too salty at times. Could definitely use more vegetable options; it's all mostly fried or covered in corn syrup. Margaritas had little alcohol in them I'd guess but tasted great. At 4 bucks not too bad. Service was really great, like spectacular. Would go back if I were driving past and hungry for Chinese buffet. read more

Yep this is a very good stop Clean and friendly My experience was they hit a birdie Great for hungry travelers and the locals should be proud to have the restaurant close read more

Online it says they are open until 9:30. The door says 9:00. We arrived at 7:10. The waitress was rude, obviously trying to rush us. The food wasn't being replenished and numerous things were empty. There were two waitresses (one being our's) sitting at the table next to our's using their phones most of the time we were there. We were brought the check while we were still eating and a few minutes later the waitress came back to ask if we were ready to pay yet. Before 8 o'clock the kitchen staff came out with a trash can on wheels and went down the rows of food and dumped everything into the trashcan. All you can eat buffets typically keep food out until all of the customers are finished eating and the restaurant closes. Dumping it out 1/2 hour before closing in front lot of customers who are still eating is pretty rude. read more

Great restaurant and friendly staff. We had a group of 26 people, and it was as smooth as could possibly be. Everyone ate great and had a great experience! The best Chinese restaurant I've being in a while! read more

This place is as good as it gets. All of the food tastes amazing, and it is definitely worth the price. They have a wide variety of foods to choose from and it's easy to both dine in and to take out. They have also have really good service, the waiter frequently came around to check up on us. I really wish there were more places like this, but sadly there are few that be as great as this restaurant. read more

My GO to spot! I love Chinese always have and always will. Always clean, always food ready and fresh waiting for you. The people are always friendly and smiling! They have a lot of respect for their business. It's honestly cheap for two people to go at lunch. Only spending 15 dollars for us both. When it's all you can eat. That's a deal! read more

Stopped in after a meeting in St. Louis, had a friend and co-worker who had eaten here before and so we stopped. This buffet was excellent. Big selection, hot fresh food. Good service, I will stop back again when we get in the area. read more

This is my favorite Chinese Buffet. Food is always fresh and tasty with good variety. Wait staff is very attentive and keep the drinks filled. read more

Food is excellent! They have a great selection of foods there. It's a great local place to grab lunch and/or dinner! Keep up the hard work, Chinatown! read more

This is by far the best Chinese Rest. I know of. Sushi, shrimp, mussels, black pepper chicken, cheese steak rolls, etc. How they can serve all of that for lunch (all you can eat) for under $8.00 is beyond me. Bathrooms are clean, restaurant was clean, food was hot. A+++++ I will always be a customer. read more

Decent stuff for a Chinese buffet in the relatively small town of Litchfield. Buffet prices for lunch are 7 and dinner is closer to 10. Most of the food if pretty good, and I was surprised that their sushi was fairly decent. The speed at which the food is replenished is also pretty fast during peak hours, so it's fairly freshly cooked stuff. However, some of their stuff is there for ages, and I wouldn't recommend trying your luck. It's been sitting there since the beginning of dinner service for a reason... That being said, for someone going for dinner and paying close to 10 bucks, I would expect a bit more quality in the food. Would've given 5 stars if I'd went for lunch I guess. There's a lot of good places to eat in Litchfield, but if you're craving either Chinese or want to binge, this place is it. read more

Clean an wonderful people who greet their customers, Offer refills when ya need them. Very good to help you get something you need.

Pretty decent, pretty clean and busy. Fresh food on some and very delicious. Great for lunch or dinner. Really nice waiters and severs. Would go back. read more

The food selection is very good. It seems as if they have everything that a person desires in a Chinese restaurant. They even have stuff for children or people that aren't fond of Chinese food. The servers are very nice and never left you feeling stranded, and its always peaceful when I come here too. read more

The first time we went here, the service, food, atmosphere was wonderful. Today, I brought the whole family, paying around $75. The servers refilled 1 drink out of 6, cleared the dirty plates only when there were a couple stacked for 10 min or more and they were watching the table so the minute we stood up, they could clean it. It was around 4pm and the place maybe had 6 tables with customers. VERY disappointed and probably won't go back. When asked, the ladies at the front said they fry everything in the same vegetable oil fryer. Being allergic to shellfish, this caused me to be ill after eating. read more

The waitress used to be so good when I first went there! There's one there that will refill there drinks at every table but mine! One time she brought a pitcher half full of hot Pepsi and poured some! There's no way any one should get served like that! read more

The woman who seated us was EXTREMELY rude. She tried to seat us next to a table full of people when there were many other tables open. We politely requested another table and she acted like we took her firstborn. She pivoted on her heel and stomped over to another table and threw down our silverware so hard that it slid half way across the table. She then gave us a look like she just bit into a lemon. There is a general air of superiority in this place by the staff. Hey Chinatown, it is us redneck country bumpkins that pay your bills.....show a little a respect! read more

Although on Sunday we were pleased to find a nice table. The food was quite good with a lot of choices to eat. Honey chicken was awesome, tender and juicy. Looking forward to another visit soon! read more
