Still Love the food at Grand Buffet. Been a customer for around 2 years now. Only thing I miss are the mushrooms. Loved them. I hope they get them back sometime. I see people talking about Cold food, never had that happen one time. I am disabled and have a family member pick up my food and eat it at home and even with the delay driving across town to pick it up it's still warm and well done. Highly Recommended. read more

Had seen good reviews so I took the family. Mistake! Food wasn't great or even good. Just another heavy weight eatery.

I am giving one star because I wanted a crepe and the man was not wearing gloves and I noticed when he was putting it on a plate it touched his hand So I asked for him to put gloves on and make me a new one. he went on to say he didn't have gloves and mind you there was a whole box of gloves for the customers he Refused to put gloves on. and no one would make me a crepe after that then again I didn't want one anymore. Won't go there again. I asked to speak to the manager and I was told she wasn't there. read more

Food look old and overcooked, some vegetables dishes were so oily and changed colors, most of the food were disgusting and not appealing to the sight and did not feel comfortable eating it, restaurant look clean but food look terrible. read more

I wanted to see what all the hype was about with this restaurant. A lot of people said that this restaurant is very disgusting and they will never go here ever. So I have to try it for myself. I went there I sat down and I went to go get my food. Now the food selection is not that great I will tell you that. Salad bar is almost none. They have sushi there but a very very few selection. Majority of it was like desserts fruits three different type of soups little stuff like that. Me being in a wheelchair it wasn't a lot of room for me to maneuver my chair around so I did have to have help and I did sometimes would have to wait at the table and just tell the other person what I wanted on my plate. I personally would go there again for a lunch session but only if I'm in the mood for certain foods. Now as far as people when I went for lunch it was packed or it was getting filled up so for all the other people that say that it's nasty or whatever I don't believe that. You just have to be in the mood for the certain foods that they do have on top of that there's plenty of parking. And there's also other restaurants that you can go to that's right by it for example The Waffle Shop and there is a little liquor store on the corner also a gas station right across from it. Hopefully this helps a lot of people but I personally would go there again. read more

See all

Food was priced very well and they had a great selection. I don't know what the bad reviews are for but the staff was attentive, food was awesome, great selection: assorted chickens, seafood, sushi, fruits, sides, pizza, etc. Perfect for our family: a healthy eater, a picky eater, an eat everything eater and an in betweener! ALL satisfied! read more

Good customer service very polite the sushi was very fresh and excellent to taste the variety they have of different cuisines is great maybe boil the crab in some broth to give taste was very bland overall a great experience and definitely will make it a date night again once in a while read more

Grand Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Modesto, California

This place tasty like they took all the food that was about to expire and mask it with lots of oil and salt. I rather just pay for Panda Express. read more

Food was MID. Price is the best thing going for this place. I watched one of the working throw food back into the pile when the food already hit the counter. Fish quality is not good. If you want some good sushi go to Kobe Buffet on Mchenry at dinner time. I rather pay for better food. read more

0 if I could. Went here with my family and friends. Everyone got their first plate and the food was gross. The only thing tolerable was the chow mein. My 18 month old wouldn't eat any of the food, kept spitting it back on her plate. Decided I was done with trying to feed her the gross food so I went and got some deserts hoping she'd eat something before we got back on the road for our long drive home. Grabbed a cream puff, some pudding and jello. Started eating the jello and it was okay...pudding had food particles in it from I don't know where. On to the cream puff. Gave my daughter a bite of the whipped cream and she immediately spit it out, so I try a bite. Tastes old and stale. Go in for further examination and there's mold all over the cream puff!!!!!! I was appalled and very upset I just gave my toddler rotten food! Didn't think of taking a picture until it was to late. I took the cream puff up to the counter very upset and the waitress says "hold on" she went and grabbed I'm guessing the owner or manager. She then grabbed it out of my hand in a hurry and ran it over to other employees for them to examine it. Nobody came over to apologize, they weren't even going to comp us anything! I absolutely refused to pay for that horrid food. I told her I'd pay for drinks and that was it. Can't imagine what the kitchen looks like. Bathrooms are more disgusting than a 7-11 in the ghetto. Save your time and don't come here. They were going to charge me $72 and change for 3 adults and 2 children! read more

I appreciate them for having the safety precautions and for keeping all the food so delicious. They provide gloves before you grab food and you must wear a mask unless you are seated at your table. Very good with cleanliness! read more

I don't know if this place has new management or what but whatever the case it has gone downhill. I wouldn't even let my dog eat here. Just turn back around if you r on the way here and go somewhere else anywhere else!!! I complained about the temperature of the food down to the taste and the noise of their current interior remodeling. Down right waste of money!!! read more

This place is actually pretty cool. The food isn't by any stretch of the imagination to be considered fine dining but it is good enough and for $8 a person at lunch you really just can't beat it. The server was attentive and the place was pretty clean from what I could tell. And just to be on the safe side I made sure to eat all the most potentially sketchy food including the sushi and the scallops. I could not however bring myself to try the sashimi. I ended up not getting at all sick. Aside from feeling like I had a food baby, my innards felt fine. Not even that slightly queasy feeling after eating KFC. One interesting thing to note was that after leaving this restaurant, both me and my friend began feeling slightly high. We supposed it was probably the huge amount if msg we'd just consumed. But just be warned, if you go ham at this buffet, be prepared to feel a bit off for maybe half an hour after leaving. All in all, would definitely recommend and next time I'm back in modesto I'm for sure coming back. read more

Grand Buffet - The pork buns and the cream cheese rangoons are amazing. - Buffets Near Me - Modesto, California

I am very impressed by this place. Oddly enough those I am more impressed bye there buffet on the weekdays. The mushrooms, the coconut shrimp an orange chicken are fantastic. Pizza was ah okay. The custard dessert was sooo good. I loved the ice cream. This place was really clean an the service was great. I've come here four times already. The fish is also one of my favorite items here. The cheese mussel was great the scallops not so great read more

Decided to try this buffet out after reading the mediocre reviews on yelp. First of all the staff is very friendly and this place is VERY CLEAN. We sat down and I needed to use the restroom - NASTY! Signs posted in the bathroom and in the stalls say "please do not throw toilet paper in the toilet" in english and spanish.. haha! Food selection is ok, nothing compared to the standard buffets in China Town (oakland) or even Fremont/Newark/Union City (Bay Area). Some of the food was actually very tasty, others just ok.... And like I said, this place is VERY CLEAN - there was a lady going around diligently wiping down all of the chairs, tables, booth seats, sweeping and wiping down counters. Empty plates sat on our table for a good 5 mins or so but that didn't really bother me. Soda was a third full and took them awhile to refill. Overall it was ok. Nothing bad and nothing really to love. Price was great tho for $10/person and baby was free (of course). read more

A very descent experience as far as buffets go. The stand out items were the deep fried calamari, it was the best I have ever had, The Japanese chicken was also a hit. sorry I don't eat buffet sushi. the won ton soup was hot and tasty. They also had chicken wings and egg rolls that were good. when visiting Modesto I will make sure to return to Grand Buffet for the Squid(calamari) so good. read more

I used to come here a few years ago with my dad, we stopped coming because it started to suck everything would be cold and old, decided to stop by here after a few years with a friend and it was packed inside everything was fresh and hot and the sushi bar area looked all fresh too they had just brought new things out so everything was really good, I'll defiantly start coming here again not sure if they got new owners or what but I'm very impressed on how much it's changed I can't wait to bring my dad back here :) I know he'll love it too read more

Grand Buffet - Everything was hot and fresh, loved the sushi too. - Buffets Near Me - Modesto, California

Head greeter lady was rude and the food was terrible. Almost nothing vegan. The veggie egg rolls were soggy greasy very little inside. The tempura was limp and cold. Plain white rice was the only thing I liked oh wait there were some sesame balls with sweet black beans inside that were nice too. Meat eaters in the group were not happy either and got stomach aches. My group worried that the working staff were indentured servants because they didn't speak English and they had that submissive demeanor often found in abused people. read more

The food here is always okay me and my family like to come here I wanna day at least once a month or every other month . The staff is nice I just wish that had a newer layout to not look so old read more

The food here is amazing!!! Sushi was awesome. The best part is the hostesses are really nice and there food is extremely affordable. I took my prego cuzin here and honestly this is our to go spot for Chinese food and sushi forever!! Lol read more

Not worth the $16 they charge for dinner. Usually when I come here during the day this place is rocking, here at 6 on a Thursday evening and it's dead. Most of the food was the same when I came in, they just stirred it occasionally so it would look fresh. We were there for well over an hour and they never put out any crab legs except the 3 tiny legs that looked like they were there from the night before, they did have a sign up saying due to increased crab prices they put out limited crab, guess 3 legs is limited. Salt & pepper crab had been sitting there so long the meat turned to paste. This used to be my favorite Chinese buffet in town and I would drive across town for it, maybe I should stick to lunch. A year ago I would give them five stars, but only 2 today read more

Finally tried this place. Lots of choices,so much it will take several trips to finish. Lots of sushi,seafood dishes. Lots of American Chinese dishes. IE fried rice ,noodles. There is something for everyone here. Service was good, my drink never stayed empty for long. I ate myself into a food coma. Quoting Raina Huang. I'll come back again. Thanks. read more

Great food! For the money I really expected it to be mediocre, but it wasn't! Better than most buffets I've eaten at for a lot less money. Highly worth it, excellent service, and fresh food. What more can you ask for for $6.50? read more

This place is really good compared to Manteca , Stockton, and Modesto. The foods are fresh, good taste, and price is reasonable. Especially the blue crab , oyster so fresh and juice. I used to go to the one in Stockton but now this my new place to hand out with my kid. I'll post pictures next time when I come here. read more

I personally found it was a waste of my money there was no flavor to the food taste like it came out of a jar,

I was disappointed with the food here not the best AT ALL Four Seasons ok Prescott is completely better!!

The food is always good in this buffet, before and after this pandemic. During the Covid-19 Pandemic they are being extremely safe. When you go inside the buffet they ask to have a mask covering your mouth and nose. They provide Gloves for you too use. You can tell that everything is disinfected multiple times. I came here last Saturday around 1 in the afternoon. Prices are really good! They charge you per pound. Food was amazing and so many choices to pick. read more

Do not come here very dirty the food is under cook no flavor. Got some oysters and they were dirty they mud and poop, the manager said it's okay to eat it. What in the world what about me getting sick? The waitress are lazy bad attitude save your money. Why have a business when you don't take care of customers read more

Great food @ price. Family very friendly. All kinds of choices. Salmon was wonderful.

Great food!! Love the Coconut Shrimp. Soups are also good. This is our favorite place to go for Chinese Food.

My mom loves this Chinese buffet-- it's a family favorite for great food and great prices!

My family and I have dined here a bunch of times. This is one of our favorite places to eat. We enjoy the many different foods to eat and they all taste really good. The ladies that are the servers are all very friendly and make sure we have our drinks filled and that our plates are picked up. read more

Food was cold, no flavor tastes as if it was taken to the back re warmed and brought back out. Staff are very rude and unaccommodating. For all our inconvenience they gave us 20% off and our bill still was 56.00. This place is horrible read more

On a monday afternoon around 2:15pm. Everything is luke warm or mainly cold. Old sushi and broccoli and beef among other things. Low selection of food. Almost everything is sweet. I wouldnt come here again. I couldnt really enjoy being at a buffet with what selection if food was out. read more

This place was pretty good. Food was hot. I was surprised they had the Two kinds of sushi that i liked and it was pretty good. They had good service as well. Checked on us, water refills. read more

This place is a hit and miss. Sometimes very well maintained with the food fresh and other times not much selection or cold food. Went on a Sunday for the first time and it was insane madness but the waitress and staff kept it all together nicely. Warm fresh food was always being served that day. Other days, like I said, hit and miss. read more

This place doesn't even deserve 1star! The food is mediocre at best. and they have crab only the legs and they hardly have any meat in them. First thing I asked was where is the crab? I'm told by the hostess or owner that they put it out every 30 minutes. There is a sign where the crab should have been that stated the crab prices have gone up and they have a limited supply. Well then I say don't have an all you can eat buffet! read more

This place is pretty good and the service is good.they have a lot of foods to choose from.there food seems fresh.and they also sell toys and other stuff... read more
