Service was horrible. I would not recommend eating here. They are not truthful about time and dinner and service

I usually love this place hence the 4th star but this last time most everything was cold and dry. The place is clean. The wait staff always makes sure your drinks are always filled and they always have a large selection as it did this time but it was a fail. Now this won't stop me from returning because everyone is untitled to one miss and past experience tells me they can do better. read more

The 4 stars are for my tea and the Mongolian grill!!! Get your food freshly made here!! Don't waste your time on the buffet!!! It socks rocks!!! The food is very bland. We tried baked seafood, ribs, catfish, crawfish. It basically all sucked. The Mongolian Grill has got it going on tho!!! read more

East Buffet - Mongolian Grill with chicken - Chinese Near Me - Irving, Texas

I haven't been to a buffet like this in years. It's kind of exactly what you'd expect. Groups of all ages coming to get an easy meal for all the picky eaters and children piling their plates high. I liked the variety of dishes to choose from. The peppered squid was a test outside what I'd normally trust at a buffet. Unfortunately, it was a bit crunchy from being dried out under heat lamps. Some of the thicker tentacles were gummy and delicious. I'd probably go back to try other dishes. read more

Right next door to our hotel. Was debating going due to the reviews but took a chance. Glad we did. Restaurant was clean and service was excellent. Food was hot and very good. read more

The food was stale and dry looking... all of it. Limited options as well. On top of that over priced, I payed $36 for two people and we got waters... read more

This is near my office, but we mostly been going to Uno as it's slightly bigger with maybe little more selection? Anyway, with the post pandemic, seemed like everything has gone up in price. My last weekday lunch at Uno was something like $14+, so decided to come back to East as it's been maybe couple of years since my last visit Today, I had to make a trip to Ft worth to pickup something with my son, so decided to stop by for lunch. It was $14.95 for all day Sunday, which was fair. I always like to start with Mongolian, and that was perfect as expected. The sushi, well, those were not as good as the rice used is just plain old rice and not even close to the real thing, even for a sushi at a Chinese restaurant, so don't bother. Aside from that, I've tried a little of everything else and they were all good and fresh. The fried shrimp especially were tasty, made a mess of myself but we'll worth it. Service as expected was decent for Chinese restaurant as I had low expectations, but the 2 waitresses kept coming back to clear our plates and refill the water at least 3 or 4 times. Aside from the pretend sushi, this was a good experience and deserves a 4 star. Keep in mind, I'm only comparing this to other Chinese buffet I had in the past. read more

Needed to eat somewhere not bbq related and was craving Chinese food. This was worth the price. Good customer service asked if I can see what was being served before I sat, no problem. Nice same-same variety of food you'd expect from a Chinese Buffet restaurant. Didn't go for the Mongolia Noodles cuz I just wanted to stuff my face without waiting. I was satisfied with the selection but the only reason not 5 stars.. sushi wasn't at par with what I've been use to at these spots and my favorite cheese wontons were good but not warm and stale. I go to Chinese buffets for sushi but coulda been better. In the end I would be back. And I would suggest to go here if I was asked. Fruits were good too and if you can't beat good customer service. read more

Their food isn't fresh and they got little white worms in their chicken or could've been the eggroll . I tried to call up there and explain to them what I experienced earlier in my car and they couldn't understand me she asked me if I spoke Korean because she can't hear me. I told her no, she said okay you can call back....I kept feeling something in the back of my mouth and I got nauseous so I paid for my plate and got in my car...I looked in the mirror with my mouth wide open to see a skinny little white worm in the crease of my throat....I threw up instantly.....This is not okay...SO IM TELLING YAAAALLLLLLL They food not fresh. crazy I used to go there all the time now it's just not good anymore. No this is not a bean sprout, bean sprouts don't move. read more

East Buffet - What came out of my mouth. I cropped it so that y'all won't see my vomit. - Chinese Near Me - Irving, Texas

Omg cook was in the restroom for 10 minutes came out never wash his hands and start cooking how I know because my son was having stomach problems for the spoiled shrimp that was served inside doing the Mongolian grill. Not to get into full detail just try it out if you're a true American this place should be closed down due to food violations. I guess that's why you don't see a food grade for the service of this restaurant. Come on Texas state board let's do better for the American citizens. Need to keep ice on seafood for it won't spoil and change spoons out I set here for a hour never seen changed gross never ever will I return or recommend read more

I'm so disappointed. Honestly I am not sure what I was expecting but it was NOT this. The food was GROSS, COLD and HARD. Service was terrible as well. The only good thing about this place was the clean bathroom. We paid $60 for three adults. I would have preferred a burger. read more

ABSOLUTELY LOOOOVVVEE GOING HERE!!! My fiancé and our friends are frequent customers here, we LOVE hanging out here and the staff is always so friendly!! 10 out of 10 would recommend!! Mainly writing this because of our last experience, one of the waitresses has been serving there for quite sometime and used to serve my fiancé and his family since he was a little kid, she was such a sweetheart and I will be going here for quite sometime now. If I could remember her name I would give her a shout out but she was so busy I didn't have a chance, can't wait for the next visit! read more

The food tasted like butthole and I'll never eat there again. The only thing that was good was the spring roles. The service was ok they barely came to our table. The place was very crowded and had way too many tables in it. read more

I used to absolutely love this place a few years ago. I would take dates here, and even brought my grandma and twin here when they came in town. That must have been before things went bad. I used to work at a Chinese restaurant that had a buffet and to-go side- so I understand how things run. This place is no good- the food is sitting too long- all is dried out, over cooked, and bland. Everything taste the same= greasy. I came on a Monday night at 6:30 so it should have been the busiest time of the night- the food was terrible. And for this awful experience it costs $16 (before the tip)! No way!!! Unbelievable. I regret everything about this place and my experience. I wouldn't eat there again if they paid me. read more

It's mediocre at best. If you love seafood you will be happy. I don't so really my only choices were chicken on a stick, honey chicken, jalapeño chicken and orange chicken and rice and soup. Almost everything else has some sort of seafood in it. It's $14.99 plus tax and tip was $21 for just me to be limited to very few mediocre items. I won't be back. read more

Food was great as always, but the service wasn't. Before we could finish our main food, about to get the dessert and the server comes up to us telling us if we want the check, as we say "ok", she tells us total. We then get the check and she wont leave when she hands us our ticket, Terrible! We didn't even get the fortune cookies, nor refills. Never again! read more

Food here is your typical Chinese buffet food. None of it was particularly spectacular (but they DO have crab legs!!). +1 star for the awesome service and hospitality we received though!! read more

East Buffet - Prices as of 2/3/17 - Chinese Near Me - Irving, Texas

This location is below average . Typical buffet fare but many items supposed to be HOT are not they're lukewarm and some ate cold which tells me NOT FRESH! The cold shrimp at the seafood / cold salad table was overcooked and of mushy texture and NOT deveined the lemon wedges were slimy That tells me : leftover from the previous day(s) The beef and mushrooms were good but severely lacked in beef content it was hot and the sauce OK NO ONE at the Mongolian BBQ and thats annoying Didn't go near the fruit and dessert tables I come to Irving for Business purposes so this place will be in last place for lunch/dinner when I have to visit company headquarters read more

Worst Chinese buffet ever I've tried. Everything was so bland. Service was not the best. Avoid this tasteless buffet.

Food was very good. The server was absolutely sweet and took great care of us. Not many places like this where you can get a clean restaurant and good food at the same time. The server alone was worth coming for. read more

Solid Buffet, very reasonable in price. Variety of foods to choose from. Affordable for the whole family. Service is on point. It gets busy so go early. read more

It was clean with good service. The selection was a little small but not too bad. I cheated on my diet so i didn't feel good about myself while eating. I made the best of it. They didn't have regular Chinese fried chicken but the mild buffalo chicken was good and fresh. I'd eat their again on my lunch if I don't feel like going to packed out buffets. read more

It is one of the best restaurants I've been to the waitresses are nice and the food is awesome

The last time I went, the food was terrible. Only one dish was hot (chicken on a skewer) and it had just come from the kitchen. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS COLD. It is dangerous to serve food that has been sitting out at that temperature. Chicken=cold. Seafood=cold. Eggrolls/Spring rolls=cold AND soggy. Green beans=cold. It was horrible. I could not tell the food was cold at the steam table. When I got to my table, I realized it. I almost did not eat because of the temperature, but I did. Then I worried about food poisoning for hours. Luckily, I didn't get it. And to make matters worse, they have raised their prices due to loss of business during covid. It cost over $15 per person for plates of cold food. read more

Location is busy, restaurant is near Best Buy and shopping mall, lots to get into here. I was immediately greeted and seated with big friendly smile. Staff is mixed ethnicity which is usual for Texas. That's one huge plus about Texas, it is a melting pot of multiple cultural experiences. Buffet is common Chinese cuisine nothing setting them apart except they do have big selection to choose from-sauces are similar to other establishments. They have Mongolian grill with full selection of meats, However I am Vegan so I enjoyed six different vegetables in garlic sauce. I have nothing bad to write; their very clean, smells good, food was hot and staff never forgot about me. Ohh, they do offer Sushi for vegans but I elected out at this time choosing other selection of veggies. One big plus they do offer real homemade hot mustard condiment. My nose is currently dripping. Enjoy! read more

East Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Irving, Texas

A decent buffet for the money. Service is good and selection is a bit better than average

I always get buffet to go so today I only tried several items. Crab ragoons, eggrolls, egg flower soup, orange chicken ans sesame chicken all fresh and good. The honey chicken was bland. My favorite was the mongolian grill. The selection is decent and they have more sauces than normal buffet places. I loved it! I wish I would have came here before I wasted so many visits on uno. The food tasted fresher and the grill has more selection. At 4.29 a lb to go at East I got all the items for less than 9 bucks. I will definitely be back...probably again this week! read more

First visit there for lunch.. Staff was there to greet you and very friendly and quick even at the night of the lunch hour. Place was clean and wait staff very efficient and friendly.. As for the food. The Mongolian side was a bit of a waste since you had to find the bell to ring., would have more business if someone was there the whole time. As for the sushi.. Very basic but was fresh and well made.. Have to try the Kim chee was good. As for the selection was of and everything was cooked well and nothing too dry, read more

Meh... Is as good as it's gonna get for this place... Wasn't fresh... And my family and I went during prime hours where the rush was there... The Mongolian grill was sub par... Two stars only bcuz the wait staff was awesome... read more

It wasn't great but it wasn't bad either. It was pretty much what you would expect from a Chinese buffet. I've definitely had better but unfortunately I have had worse too. I may go back to give them another shot at a later time. Perhaps they were just having an off night. read more

I guess this is my go to place, When I want fresh, friendly, and affordable. Please check out my previous reviews for this establishment. There only drawback is in the atmosphere, and I'm not about to the doctor I am tire star just because the place is a few years old. read more

Stay away front this place I use to CoMe here all the time it just went down hill food has been out to long stale and cold ugh waste of money ! read more

First off, it's a Buffett!!!! So, with that said, what you would expect that comes with a Buffett is very present. The atmosphere is a bit depressing, I wish Asian Buffetts would stop trying to be what they are not: i.e. "fine dining." We don't need painted cloud ceilings and l.e.d lighting and chandeliers, but alas this is what you will get! People slopping tremendous amounts of food and wasting it, yes, of course. Like I said, this is typically the crowd that these places attract. I checked in on Yelp and got a 10% off offer which made already a cheap meal even cheaper. Stick to the Asian food varieties on the Buffett, several of them were quite good. The American fare (pizza) and such looked gross, as did the dessert selection, quantity beats quality here as well. Jello or a vat of pudding anyone!? The Asian entrees and the fried offerings are all pretty tasty. Healthy? I'm afraid not. read more

I didn't like the food here. Little to no taste and we got seated right under a vent which quickly got cold. The booster seat was incredibly sticky. Yuck. $40 for 2 adults and a 4 year old. The wait staff were very friendly which is the only reason I gave 2 stars. Save your money and go elsewhere. read more

Everything I tried was really good. Im very impressed with this buffet. Having been to alot of buffets in Vegas this one kills them for the asian fare. I will be back for sure. Very yummy. Need to try the Mongolian Grill next time. read more
