Dragon Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Always hits! Consistently good food. Fast turnaround on the buffet. Have been going for YEARS! Seem to always make the same plates. LOL!! Good ice cream too! read more

The food is ok. If you're looking to eat a lot of food, and are ok with average food, this is the place for you. I did come in at 8:00pm, so some of the dishes had been a little dried out by the heat lamps. They have a hibachi cook who will whip up your meal till 8:30pm weeknights. The selection of items to put on the grill are pretty limited. Spacious restaurant with plenty of seating. I will pass on a revisit till I've experienced most of the other Asian restaurants in the area. read more

Oh Dragon Buffet, you were my favorite Chinese buffet and now... you are a place that I will only eat at in my memories. You added a hibachi bar and took away quality. Your chicken used to be crispy and scrumptious but now it is floppy and whatever the opposite of scrumptious is. And on a side note, your mussels made my little brother throw up, and then an employee who saw didn't help me at all and left it on the floor. Your health rating is also concerning. Time has not been kind to you, my old, old friend. Two stars. The extra is for what Dragon Buffet use to be. read more

this is the worst restaurant i have ever experienced. do not go here unless you want it to be your last meal. food was horrible! i went there and saw the food looked appetizing! i was even excited to try it. but the food was decent but it was also lacking flavors and the textures in the meat were weird, almost rubbery.. and my body is hurting so bad!! me and my family had allot to try because you know (its a freaking buffet) and guess what! we had like 2 or 4 bites and we didn't eat the rest of the 80% of food we wanted to try because of how sad and sickening the food was. i wish i took a picture for evidence!!! my poor dad, he actually threw up first and had the worst sickness. compared to me and my sister, we felt ill until he got home and threw up and stomachs feeling unwell. i still feel unwell. the ambiance was crappy. you got a buffet on the side and booths and lack of care. after we told our waiter (bless her heart) we go to the worst manager I had ever had pleasure talking to. now i hope this man outside of his job is a loyal citizen and he seems to be, but as the mf manger, he was so rude. we are clearly sick and he is arguing with my dad that he still needs to pay and the food was his own problem not him. excuse me??? a manger should be caring instead of this selfish brat not helping us at all and charging us 50$ still. i can clearly see things that are not to health code with this restaurant. raw meat stays for hours, food is cooking but the top of the food can carry bacteria, which needs leds god. this screams bacteria. i would love to never come back here again, manager was careless, and i hope we can sue this place for good! if they really wanted to keep it, they should've listened to the reviews and customers, and keep it together with fresher food and health code. i hope we can recover from food poisoning. b.s!!!! read more

Delicious good including the noodles and shrimp fried rice! Quick service and very clean and welcoming! ................

Food is always well stocked and the waiters are always very kind. Always a pleasure to come in here and have a great selection. An amazing spot if you're very hungry. read more

We stopped in when they just opened for dinner on a Friday (4/25/2025) night so we were expecting 'fresh' food. As soon as you walk in, the place did not feel welcoming or clean so we immediately asked to look at the food before sitting down. We ended up walking out! Food appeared to be old, rice and noodles hard and dry, chicken/ beef options dried out, sauced food options were overheated and stuck on the serving trays by the heat lamps, and entire selection was underwhelming. Cleaning supplies and wash rags were scattered throughout the tables, floors were unclean and could use a good scrub, and even the walls were dingy and dirty, almost yellowish. As soon as you walk in it smelled like grease or old cooking oil. Needless to say, this review is on overall experience, we did not dare try the food. read more

I went with my daughter to the buffet. And She asked me to get some ice cream and while she was getting ice cream a cook pushed her with the door and didn't even apologize. I talked to a manager and the manager was really rude. I won't be coming back. read more

Very good, nice assortment of different foods for the buffet. We were very pleased. Highly recommend, very affordable.

Very few selections , most items had no flavor and shrimp was overcooked. It was dinner time and didn't even have everything full. The items that items were full weren't the hottest. This place used to good not and more. read more

I have to say today you redeemed yourself on the Chinese chicken wings. It's been years since the chicken actually taste like Chinese wings. They looked visually appealing and tasted great. read more

I'm a massive fan of Dragon Buffet. The staff is very friendly, the food is almost always hot and fresh, and they have a great selection of Asian food that all tastes amazing. There is a reason this restaurant continues to thrive is South Charlotte. I'm craving their food just writing this review. The price is so reasonable, which makes it 5-stars in my opinion. read more

Just visited this little Chinese Buffet last Friday night March 29. The front desk was very friendly - you can feel when people care the customers. We bought 4 take outs. The food quality was above our expectation. Definitely will com back next time. read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for years with my family and now more since moving to this side of town. Their service is always top tier and the staff is friendly. Food will be brought out fresh if you ask and they have a decent size buffet with good items. This will always be a staple for me in the Charlotte area. Ling Da was our server today and she was so pleasant, prompt, and attentive. We appreciated her service and definitely be back to see her. read more

Wow here on a bussiness trip and this place was so delicious. Very fresh food hot and it's the best I've ever had. The place was neat and clean and our waitress was very friendly and timely. If you find yourself in this area I would save you have to try it. The bill was only 32 dollars for all you can eat for two people great service. read more

Visit date: 2/29/2020 So if you want to know if I would go back??? See the answer at the bottom. FOOD: So the food selection was VERY limited. I did have the mussels and they where good. The rice was ok. That's all I ate. The cocktail shrimp had a funny taste to them. Nothing else on the buffet looked like I even wanted to try. The broccoli was so full of oil with no flavor. I only eat seafood and I never had a issue with finding food to eat at any Chinese buffet before but this place I did. My husband had some fried chicken and as he was eating it he was saying something did not taste right and after taking another bit he seen why, the chicken was not even cook correctly (see photo). When they was informed yes they took the chicken off the buffet and apologized. The next pan was cooked correctly when it come out. NO NO: So my son had a piece of apple pie and ice cream. I went to get me some for myself and could not find the Apple pie and my son had to show me where it was... IT WAS BETWEEN SOME CHICKEN AND SOME RIBS (see photo)!!! So that was a no no for me and I did eat that either. INSIDE: was ok not to big or not to small. We was sitting closer to the buffet. They employees was close to us eating as well lol. Would I go back? THATS A NO for me. See the service was good. It was the food. I could have still paid that same price at another buffet with WAY MORE FOOD to pick from. read more

Food was cold an piled high with no signs of getting busy. The staff was mixing soups together. That isn't a bad thing except the soup was very old looking they added to the new. My daughter was sick last night. They didn't have General TSO's on the buffet. read more

This is the best buffet!! The food is always hot and fresh. The sweet tea is perfect not too sweet!!

Food was piping hot and delicious. Glad that we gave delivery from there a try. Was delivered in less than 15 minutes

They haven't disappointed me yet. Their food is delicious.........and I try something different every time. Customer service needs improvement is the reason for 4 instead of 5 stars. read more

Ok... I just came from this restaurant Dragon Buffet for my son's Birthday lunch. Honestly speaking it was a disaster, the food was cold or at least room temperature, the waitress could not speak any english so I couldn't relate to her that the food was cold... total disaster... i give them a rating of 1 because she did bring the right drinks... will not be going here again or telling anyone about this place!!!! i didn't see wrong with the cleanliness of the place but still will not be trying them again!!! the salmon was terrible dry and hard... read more

Only 5 minutes from my house, so we come here a lot for takeout. Never tried their buffet before but their takeout is good, especially for the price. Wouldn't say it's the best Chinese I've ever had, but better than typical takeout Chinese. Portions are very large. I would highly recommend the crab rangoons. read more

Simply put. I did not have a good experience at this restaurant. Bad food, bad ambiance. Various offerings were greasy, soggy/wet, undercooked, overcooked, unclean, questionable. The restaurant was dirty and unkempt. I took three bites of food and paid and left. The best part of my meal was the Pepsi I ordered which remarkably wasn't messed up in some way. Do yourself a favor. Choose something else. read more

The first word that pops in my mind is DINGY!!! This place looks like the interior hasn't been updated since they first opened. Dark, too small to be a good buffet and now I understand why a dinner buffet is only $8.99. Food: Good flavor but very limited options. Only about 4 steam tables and a lot of standard things that you see on most buffets are missing. Cleanliness: Dirty silverware on the table that I had to complain about. Had to get new silverware and ask the waiter for a cup of hot water to kill any germs on the silverware. Service: Never checked on during our meal and never offered a refill on our drinks. Bottom line is that this is not the best buffet that I've gone to. They need to move to a bigger and nicer location or close down and renovate this place from top to bottom. The decor killed my appetite, had one plate and was done. read more

I live right around the corner from here. I am so glad to be visiting it once again after the economic shutdown. I love the fact that they have a lot of booths to sit in. However, the best part is the price ! $9 each for a dinner buffet. With drinks and tax $24 for 2 people plus tip. The peppersteak was excellent tonight. I also like to get their sweet and sour soup. They have wonton and eggdrop soups available also. They grill the chicken teriyaki strips right there every few minutes. They also have a container of white rice available. I like the crispy butter shrimp and the baked crab casserole. They have sesame chicken and spring rolls. Personally, however, I've never been fond of their sweet and sour chicken. For dessert they have a really yummy oreo ice cream and also have other flavors such as chocolate and strawberry. The staff is always good about checking up with you at your table. This is a great place to pick up something easy without having to wait for your meal. We're regulars :) read more

Dragon Buffet - Crispy butter shrimp, peppersteak, cabbage, sesame chicken, Indian chicken, mushrooms, and sweet and sour soup. - Buffets Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I ordered take out and wasn't expecting much for a $6.99 plate of food, But it was delicious! I live about 12 mins away and the food was still piping hot and steaming when I got home. Very good value. read more

Good, not great. Pretty much what i expect for a Chinese buffet. $15 for buffet and an iced tea.

Excellent food for a Chinese buffet. Very rarely do you find a place with this many good items. Most Chinese buffet restaurants are a smorgasboard of sub-par to awful garbage. We've been coming here for around 15 years because their food is solid. read more

The "food" they have at this buffet is not edible. I can safely say this place is the worst restaurant I've been to. read more

Good food and the service was great... Very honest and Friendly people. Just needs renovations bathrooms and dining area. Some soft native Chinese music playing in the background would be great read more

Went here for lunch for two people our total was $22.93 with drinks. I absolutely love their crab Ragoon. Loved their vegetable fried rice. Sesame chicken wasn't the best but it definitely wasn't the worst, I've had a lot nastier so nothing really special there. Same for the Lo mein- not the best nor the worst. The buffet was kept clean and seemed organized. They don't have a big selection for fruit or dessert so that was kinda disappointing for a sweet tooth like myself. **They did have ice cream so I wasn't to upset!** They are very welcoming and felt right at home. Never a dirty dish if I went to the buffet and returned and always had our drinks refilled. We aren't from around this area so if you have an IPhone and use the built in GPS you may end up back on the interstate. You can easily miss the turn which isn't the buffets fault and didn't affect my rating whatsoever just putting that out there for travelers! My biggest disappointment is it wasn't really cool inside, yeah it's a buffet and the steaming hot food makes it hotter inside but still, we sat a little ways away and it wasn't really cool either way. I would definitely come back! Thanks for the good food. read more

not good at all. $15 for the buffet, drink not included. saw several roaches around the food area and let an employee that was sitting on his phone by the food bar. food is flavorless. alot of the food cold as well. salmon tasted like raw fish. front desk lady was rude and had an attitude because I asked the cost. She seated us and nobody mentioned any pricing. read more

I don't like buffets. The idea is kind of gross but my group voted for it and as an out of Towner i has to take one for the team. This place was surprisingly good. It had the typical Buffett look to it but the food was hot, fresh, and everything i tasted was delicious. They had grilled salmon which was perfectly cooked , i had fresh broccoli and even had egg fu yung. All delicious. The desert area had hand scooped ice cream - none of that soft serve stuff. All you can eat for less than 10 bucks and it was edible ? I was impressed ... read more

I got here an hour after they opened and the food is cold and hard. Tastes like they put out what was left over from last night. i will not be back. read more

Only 12.98 for dinner and some of the best Crab Rangoons I've ever had at a buffet, me and my bestfriend will definitely be coming back! Service was nice and quick ! And it's chill and clean and in here, the vibes are nice , the music is calming and the food is great!!!!! read more

The food was okay. The price was cheap. I've been feeling sick since I ate there. Coming out both ends. I thought maybe it's just me because my husband didn't get sick. My brother called me and said he's been sick too. So something made us both sick. My husband mainly ate fruit so that's why he probably didn't get sick. read more

Nothing fancy here. Typical Chinese Buffet. It will kill the cravings, but a destination restaurant. read more

if I could give this place a negative star I would! Horrible sr ice, old food!! then when you bring new food out you put the old food on top of it!! how is it you just open and all the food is old on the buffet. my husband ordered from the menu and his food was burnt and pork in the rice and lo main was hard and old. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE, DON'T WAS YOUR MONEY!! read more

This will be my Buffet spot, it is like regular Chinese buffet but has great food everything tasted fresh and hot. Their fried rice and fried potatoes look so yummy it does not look greasy and cheap like in most Chinese buffet. Loved the ice cream selection Strawberry, chocolate, vanilla and Oreo The place is very clean and the service is very welcoming! Also a good price for a buffet our bill was about $21 for the adults dinner and one soft drink !!! It can not get better than that for the quality!! read more
