    This is a good restaurant to choose when you have a big group. Lots of seating-both booths and tables and the buffet has a huge selection. There's Chinese food, sushi, American food -something for everyone in your group. Food choices are labeled in case you're not sure what you were about to try! I'm not sure what the children's price is but the adult price is $15.97. The sushi bar is included in the price. The drinks were just $1 with free refills. You paid at the beginning. If you don't have cash to leave on the table as a tip, don't forget to include that in your payment. The friendly servers were quick to bring out drinks and take away dirty plates. They definitely earned a little something extra. The restaurant appeared clean and nicely decorated. The overhead music set the tone; it was calming. The bathroom smelled like...well... a bathroom. Could use an air freshener in there, but it was clean. Although it was only the hubby and I eating lunch , this restaurant is very family/kid friendly. Although it is typical buffet food, the huge selection puts it into a category of its own. Good choice for whatever the size your group is. The hard part is deciding what dish to try next.

    DOV: Sat, Feb 4, 2023 around 1:00pm I'm still trying to figure out why they have 3 stars on Yelp. They are clean, reasonably priced, and their food is great! I really enjoyed this place. They were clean, food was great, and they had a wonderful array of options. There was truly something for everyone. I normally don't like buffets so I was extremely hesitant in trying them. I've had one too many experiences of lots of options and horrible quality of food. This was a very pleasant surprise! Not only did they have lots to choose from, everything we tried tasted great! I even ended up taking some to go (for an additional charge) because it was so good! Hands down the best in the upstate I've tried so far! I'll be back

    Just a few of their many buffet items to choose from

    Always delicious!!! My favorite thing is their California rolls and coffee cake This is our go-to place. The staff is always so very busy and hard working. They deserve a raise!

    Great price!

    Priced right, clean and hibachi is friggin' amazing and fresh! Saw this restaurant was rated a 3 star restaurant before I went in...I give them a little more credit for a buffet that is very good. Outside was inviting. The inside is pretty standard for a buffet. Everything was very fresh. I was really surprised. Hibachi had shrimp, chicken, beef all cooked in front of you with the spices you want on them. (I picked hot garlic) Flavor was on point! The Chinese options were great, salad bar was good and the dessert bar was fair. Ice cream is in a cup, like you would get in elementary school. Really overall, I really, really enjoyed this experience. Wait staff was great! I will definitely go back. You should give them a shot!

    This is a great upgrade to the every Sunday Golden coral dinners. They have a wide verity for everyone. Everything was really clean, well stocked and looked fresh. We were greeted with a warm hello and even through it was a buffet the waitress continued to check on us regularly. Reasonable prices.

    DOV: Friday, May 04 @ 11:15 am This is the same place that has been here for years with some minor upgrades inside, a new name, and a higher price for the food. Lots to choose from on the all-you-can-eat buffet, although much of it is American fluff food that I care nothing for like chicken nuggets, rolls, cheese sticks (not real cheese), fried chicken wingettes, and so on. Of the oriental food, I was pressed to find something good. The egg drop soup was anemic, the General Tso's chicken was mostly breading, the egg rolls were cool (not hot) and not appetizing, and the fried rice was uninspiring.The iced tea was weak - you could see through it like dirty water. I did not try the sushi even though I love sushi. I don't eat sushi from a "place like this." (yes, I am elitist that way) Adult Buffet Lunch...$ 8.29; Unsweet Tea...$1.89; Total with tax...$11.10; Tip...2.00; Total for Lunch for One Person...$13.10 Product presentation - 5 Product quality - 2 Service - 5 Value for the money - 2 This place shows really well, but at the end of the day, it's just not for me. If I am gonna spend over $10 for lunch, I am looking for some quality, not just quantity.

    We had never had Thai food before, my husband and myself came here for his job from East Tennessee…read more We really wanted to try it, but had no clue what to order. No worries, the Staff at Thai Spice were very helpful in recommending dishes that we might enjoy. We absolutely loved the food. When my son visited I was sure he would not want to eat there, he is so picky, but he loved it! Now when he visits he wants to know when we are going to eat there again! If I am feeling ill I get the Tom Kai Soup, I may not spelling it correctly but not sure, I always feel better, the ginger, mushrooms, you can have meat added or not, this goes for most all of the dishes. If you're a pro at Thai Food, or a novice like we still are, just ask! Everything I have had is great! You can't go wrong.

    I always try to give a restaurant at least twice before leaving a less than stellar review. Well…read morenow I've tried them a couple of times and I'm still not impressed. The food is okay, not great. The service a bit of a mess, the ambiance is okay. Our table ordered Drunken Noodle which was good, red curry and green curry. We also had a coconut soup and an order of baby egg rolls. My favorite part of the meal was the baby egg rolls and that's kinda sad. My companions ordered Thai teas and I got sweet tea which my tea was fine. Hubby's drunken noodle was actually pretty good. My green curry (with tofu) was fine but the rice was mushy. We also got a mango sticky rice for dessert but it seemed the rice was leftover from yesterday maybe. I wish I had better remarks but again, this is not my first visit and I had similar complaints the first time. As far as service, the servers were nice enough and I think for the volume of patrons they were doing okay but it still was a bit of a mess. They were doubling the work trying to cover all tables when maybe they should've had separate sections. I think that would've quelled some of the overlap like both servers working to refill my tea and by the time one had, the other was coming with the pitcher. This next part is the fault of the kitchen. I watched table after table get served their dishes scattered, where one person would get theirs while the others at the table were waiting for theirs to come. Some would wait for the others to be served but some would go ahead and start eating ahead of their party. This happened the last time I was there as well. That needs to be tightened up. Personally, I wouldn't go back. The experience was a bit of a drag. We regretted ordering dessert as it took so long to come and we were antsy to get out of there by the time it came. The food was good enough but it could've been so much better and the service stayed afloat but certainly could be better.

I came in to eat for the very first time and the waitress was very nice, and the food came out quickly. I ordered the beef and broccoli and I will be honest I did not like it so I only nibbled at it thankfully, because after picking at it i noticed a dead maggot. I scooped it onto a napkin and when the waitress came over to check on me I showed it to her discreetly and whispered that I'd found it in my food. She immediately snatched it out of my hands, said she had "no idea what it is" and hustled to the back of the restaurant where I heard her screaming I'm assuming at the cooks. I walked up to the front desk shortly after feeling absolutely disgusted and she charged me for the meal I was unable to eat and continued acting like nothing happened. I could have asked her not to charge me but I was so freaked out and revolted I didn't even think about it. I was trying to be understanding but after she snatched the literal dead maggot from me and gaslit me I wonder how many other experiences have been like mine.

The lady who took my order was very friendly and encouraging. When she heard it was my first time there she was very confident that we would come back. We ordered the crab Rangoon's for appetizer, a pint of hot and sour soup, Sesame chicken lunch plate, and General Tsu's Chicken Lunch plate. The food was not outstanding but it was worth a repeat visit. I glanced at the seating area. There were booths and tables available. The place looked neat and clean.
