    The food was good, but not hot as a buffet should be. One gentleman working the whole place…read more Restaurant was very clean and price was OK for an average buffet. Not a lot of selection, but it's not a busy buffet. Good has good flavor. All self serve including drinks. Although garlic shrimp said mild, it definitely had a bite. Overall not much of a buffet.

    You've been warned…read more 1. If you are Asian, you will be flatly denied entry. 2. If you are not Asian, you should understand the basic logic and what that says about this place. My wife and I were returning to Seattle after visiting Yellowstone and spent the night in Butte. We found this restaurant on Yelp. We weren't expecting world-class dining--just something reasonably clean and edible. What we did not expect was outright discrimination in 21st-century America--especially from people who, historically, have often been on the receiving end of it. As soon as we walked in, the owner/manager/waiter (all the same person) looked at us and said--in Hong Kong-style Mandarin--"I ask you to consume somewhere else." At first, I didn't even process what he said. My wife understood immediately: we were not welcome here because we looked Asian. Keep in mind, this was an Asian buffet. Once I realized what was happening, I was furious and ready to call the police. My wife pulled me away, reminding me there was no point staying another second. I agreed--but decided that people need to know about this. This isn't only about food quality. It's about basic human decency. And this man has none. Bottom line: Use common sense and basic logic. Stay far away from this place.

    AN UPDATE It's been a while since I ate here and the…read moreexperience was horrible (I gave them just one star). I was in this area again, hungry and had cravings for Chinese, so decided to give them a chance to rehabilitate. WOW, big change. I could not believe. They IMPROVED a lot. The Shanghai steak, tender and juicy, just delicious. Veggies looked and tasted fresh. Just out off the steamer. Pot stickers were perfect. Everything tasted like HOME COOKED and not a fast food at all. The portions were very GENEROUS. Customer service was exceptional. Even though it was a lunch time and there was a line (moved fast), it took a blink of an eye to order the meal and pay. I really enjoy it today. Thank you guys very much. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is the previous experience (1 star)

    I really really wanted to like this place. I have tried to get here for years with their limited…read morehours. Only open on Thursday and Friday for now. Very limited menu. Im talking bare minimum. The service was great and all the employees that I spoke with were nice. Answered all of my questions. The restaurant looks as I would hope for good Chinese food. The best Chinese food places are run down looking that I have experienced. But the food?? The fried rice has to be the worst I have eaten. The egg rolls were the same. But, I did love the crunch on the egg roll. The sweet and sour sauce tasted like strawberry jelly if thats possible. My Almond Chicken, dry as all hell. The breading was pretty decent. The gravy saved the chicken and made it edible. But for Montanan, its probably the best here. The deluxe dinner with shrimp? They just weren't right. That plate came with chow mein and there was just veggies, no meat. Like a previous review mentioned, the best thing about the dinner was the Ice Cream. The cash or check only took me by surprise. No signage on the door. But I had cash so it wasn't a big deal. I just like to know ahead of time. For a small business I would love for them to succeed. But I just dont know. I guess the locals really love this place though? Maybe thats all they know is "white people" Chinese food.

    It is a great place to go to for authentic Chinese food! We've been going there for years!…read more Jeff is always there cooking- he's a great chef! I highly recommend Yat Son Restaurant! The prices are reasonable and your meal comes first!
