Spent $50 for lackluster sushi and raw fish that was obviously not fresh. Smelled off and was warmer than room temp.

It's a $9 (lunch) Chinese buffet, that doesn't have a lot of Chinese food on it. There were 4 Asian dishes: Sweet & Sour Chicken, Beef w/ Broccoli, Chicken w/ Broccoli, Sesame Chicken, and hibachi chicken. Everything else was American food. There were big chunks of tendon in the beef w/ broccoli, there was too much oil on the green beans, etc. I don't know why they couldn't just put a decent Chinese menu on the buffer. Needed an orange chicken, a scallion Chicken, beef w/ string beans, sweet & sour pork, etc. I like buffets, I didn't like this one. read more

I'm not the biggest fan of buffet restaurants but this one was pretty good in my opinion! The place itself was very clean and organized and the staff were very attentive and made sure everyone had what they needed. The buffet is pretty big! They had hibachi, sushi, classic Chinese foods, "kid" foods (pizza, fries, chicken nuggets, etc.), a salad bar, a dessert bar, and an ice cream bar! I filled my plate with a variety of foods and then I had my dessert. For dessert I had a mini mousse dessert, a mini strawberry cake, and a mini chocolate cake. Everything was superb and not bad quality at all. If you decide to stop by the ice cream bar you'll see very odd flavors such as Red Bean and Green Tea! Overall, I'd recommend this place to anyone who likes Asian buffets! read more

My husband and I just relocated to the Charlotte area and he said he wanted to take me to this Japanese Buffet and said I would love it! Well he was right this place is actually pretty amazing. The food choices, food display and the general layout was perfect! I truly enjoyed everything about this place. We will be coming back. read more

Most of the seafood was fried and I did not like that. The service was pretty good at this buffet. The selection was vast. I liked most of the things on my plate. I would come back to this establishment. read more

It's ok. There's not a lot of variety, but it's cheap. I kind of found it weird that we weren't provided silverware but it wasn't the first occurrence of something like that. Yeah, I don't have much to say because it's okay but it's not gross. The variety they had wasn't diverse but there was enough to make it decent. So... I guess it's okay. read more

The food here is decent. Somethings (like the Salmon and rice) were fresh and very tasty. Somethings was just not made to my liking, don't mean others won't enjoy those things. I really enjoyed this location, hence the 4 stars. What stood out the most was the cleanliness of this place. It was cleaner than a lot of dine in restaurants and this is a buffet. They have a hibachi and sushi set up where they make everything in front of you by request. If your ever in the Charlotte are and don't know what you want to eat, this,would be a good place to hit up. Oh the service was cool too. I mean it's a buffet yall. They were on point though read more

This place used to be good, but now it's nasty. Food was poor quality. Fortune cookies stale. Never going back

The restaurant looks nice on the inside and clean. However the food is the is the absolute worst. My husband and I are sick. We just left there. read more

Jasmine Buffet - The worst food ever.. my husband and I just left and will never go back - Chinese Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This is probably the best buffet in charlotte, Lots of food to choose from. I will definitely be going back !

We had a group of 13 people that ate here last night. The server comes over and brings us our drinks and never returns to clear plates, fill drinks or even ask if everything was ok. While we were eating the server magically appears and hands us a bill! When we finished eating we made sure to leave a 20% gratuity tip. The server was obviously not happy with this and decided to share her frustration with another employee while pointing to us and yelling loudly! She must not know the standard for a large party is 18% gratuity! Besides the food just being OK, nothing to brag about, the service was horrible! I will never return to this location again! read more

Very happy to see another Chinese buffet in the area. And this one has more parking and easier street access than Dragon, so it will be a better lunch choice when time is limited. The food is very good, standard Chinese buffet, plus sushi bar and hibachi grill. The buffet has many American comfort foods as well; fried chicken, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, and even pizza, so even my non-adventurous family members are happy. Great addition to the neighborhood. read more

We have come here for the first time the buffet is fresh and good the price is reasonable and the service is good

This is our go to buffet. If I work on Sunday and no one cooks in my house (often ) we end up here. There is always plenty of fresh food. We are always seated right away. The staff is friendly. Plenty of sushi !!!! The only thing I don't love is the small children who run around playing. Which isn't the restaurants fault. read more

This buffet is several grades higher than Normal Americanized Chinese food. You can tell that the chefs have real skill. They have a lavish set of offerings like sushi and a Hibachi Grill. They have chilled shrimp and mussels as well as a nice salad bar with octopus salad and an extensive array of desserts as well as ice cream. Lunch is $8.49 and dinner is $10.99 I didn't give them 5 stars because they use the wrong rice and don't use vinegar on the sushi read more

I am not a complainer but this was possibly one of the most disappointing meals I've ever had. All of the food was balms and tasted just a little off. The hibachi shrimp wasn't grilled completely and the white sauce tasted like miracle whip with a bitter after taste. We tasted a bite of everything and told management that we didn't want it. he only charged us for kids meals but still I spent $18 for a taste of nasty food then still had to go home and cook dinner. read more

This buffet is close to home for us, and we really enjoyed it. The best part was the wide selection of buffet options--from seafood, to sushi, to hibachi. Some of the food didn't always look fresh, but that's no different than I've seen at any other buffet as the food sits out. Their seafood selection includes mussels, crab, lobster, octopus etc. They have a substantial salad bar. I love their sushi selection which includes tempura, nagiri, and Rainbow Rolls. For me, this is one of the most affordable buffets around with the highest quality. They also usually have coupons. The restaurant is also HUGE, so you never have to worry about waiting for a seat. We will definitely go back when we're looking for our fill of Chinese food. read more

I wish I could give it a 3.5 stars. It was above average, but not up to 4. There was a huge variety, primarily Chinese food, however they had other food including chicken tenders, fries, pizza and pasta. There were about 10 different stations, a build your own hibachi grill, salad bar and sushi. The sushi was ok. I wouldn't recommend it. The hibachi was pretty good. You build you own from a selection of veggies, meat and seafood. Most of the food was fresh and nothing tasted as it sat out for hours. They also have a dessert bar with various treats and 8 different ice creams. Overall for $10.99 ( at dinner) it's a great deal, however this was a one time is enough for me. If buffets are your thing I would recommend jasmines due to the variety of choices. read more

Above average Chinese buffet. Selection is good, and they do have a sushi bar and hibachi bar. But neither one is up to snuff with what you would get at a dedicated restaurant (i.e. sushi restaurant, or hibachi restaurant). But that is to be expected at these prices. I'd say the average Chinese buffet, to me, is a 2. I give this one a 3 because it's pretty nice. read more

Delicious food with lots of options to choose from. Several cold bars. Several hot bars. Sushi. It's all here. Don't let the older sopping center deter you, the inside has been completely remodeled and is in great condition. I stop by occasionally and pick up a to go box. I can grab a protein and some veg for a really good price. Charged by the weight of course. I will say, the multiple prices for to go boxes based on the type of protein is a bit off-putting. Its like a game of whack a mole. You see a food item you like, then you see the little plackard that denotes it is a premium item and is going to make your price go up. Sigh. read more

This buffet is slightly more expensive than other buffets in the area, but it's also got a lot of variety. There's a hibachi grill, a sushi bar, a variety of western and Chinese dishes. Food is decent. It's a buffet, you're not going to get fine dining here. Their fried chicken is delicious. They also have oysters and cocktail shrimp during lunch. You end up paying about $9 a head but it's worth the money. read more

6-28 Visit update. Some changes noticed. No more breakfast. No more prepay. And now a kid on his cell at the HIBACHI area leaves a lot to be desired. The hot food tables have the save food. Dessert is the same too. Table service was fast and pleasant. Still the best Chinese in south west Charlotte. A read more

Clean, good service, tons of choices, sushi was good and fresh, Chinese stuff good....3 people for dinner, 2 drinks was $40

Ive been to Jasmine 20+ times and this the 2nd time my service has been bad due to this new young hibachi cook. I always take my food out and ever since this new hibachi cook has been there my service is bad. He's rude and will ignore you doesn't even ask what sauce I want for my hibachi. He will start whistling every time we come in. I miss the other hibachi cook he was nothing like this guy. I will not be coming back. read more

We came here for lunch a few Sundays ago and actually beat the lunch rush. This buffet was clean and they had a good amount of selections, however it was just your run of the mill Chinese buffet. The food was just ok, not bad but nothing to write home about and it was a little on the expensive side. My hubs and I paid close to $40 for the two of us to eat the buffet. The food wasn't worth the price in my opinion. read more

I have been coming here for a few years and the food is always fresh and the restaurant is clean. Friendly staff and plenty of choices for all tastes. For a buffet one of the best I have been to. read more

Was not impressed. Nothing special. Food did not taste so good. Dessert selection was poor. Server not able to talk English much. My kids were not impressed as well. Not sure if I'm going again. read more

Large variety of food but service sucks ass and I will never spend my money here again read more

I'd seen the sign a couple of times on my trips to Charlotte, and I'm always looking for a new Chinese buffet, so last Sunday (August 9, 2015), I stopped in. The restaurant is located at Westinghouse Blvd. and Hwy 49, and the parking lot is an easy access from either road. The inside is spacious with plenty of seating (the place is huge). Even at 4 on a Sunday afternoon they were jumping. There were several Asian families eating and that encouraged me. Usually, if Asians eat at an Asian restaurant, it's good, and I wasn't disappointed. The buffet menu was large, and I believed the "200 items" someone said was true. All the items were fresh and hot and what I ate was excellent. There were a couple of misses, like rock hard "cocoanut shrimp", but in general, I thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the buffet tables is a "salad bar", and another is a "dessert bar" There were also 8, count'em 8, different types of self serve ice cream available. There is also a sushi bar with a wide variety of fresh, moist offerings, including several I'd never seen on a buffet. On the other end is a "Hibachi Grill" that had a lot of selections. All the staff were friendly and efficient. I never ran out of drink and my used plates were cleared promptly. The prices for lunch and dinner are VERY reasonable, especially considering what they offer. All in all, my dining experience was relaxing and tasty. I WILL be going back. Give'em a try. Oh,and to the reviewer who complained about "frozen cheese sticks"...well. you'll get frozen items in almost any restaurant you go into, especially buffets. The trick is making the frozen items appear and taste fresh, and Jasmine does.. They get an A- from me. read more

Cold food on the buffet and this is a place to go if you want seafood not Chinese food. Horrible we left our food on plates after a couple of bits of everything being cold. Suck will never go back! Off to Dragon Buffet to get better Chinese food! read more

This food is not meant for human consumption. Coworkers wanted to go and I tagged along. There was actually a "sushi" roll with tuna salad in it. It's like an Asian PB&J? read more

This is a relatively new Chinese buffet, so I waited a while before venturing inside, as I kinda picky about buffets, but Jasmine did not disappoint. They, for a Chinese buffet rate significantly higher that most, and for the SW region of Charlotte, higher that Dragon Buffet, in that they have more than double the selection of everything, especially chicken wings, to which I a BIG fan. The food display is well maintained and bakery area is a delight to the eyes. I'm not a sushi fan, so I wont comment on that part. All in all, worthy of a return visit, reasonably prices at $8.49 for lunch. read more

I would not come here again. The food offered is the usual buffet menu you'd find anywhere. Food was warm at best. The one positive I can offer is that the place is clean. read more

Short version: Took longer to be seated than expected. Sushi is fair, too much filler ruins the flavor Seaweed cup is too sweet Variety of Asian flavors seems limited (disappointed) Lots of American food (didn't try) Fruit is really good Service is quick about clearing old plates and keeping drinks topped off. read more

One of the best buffets & cheap prices. The food is made with love. Total for two with beverages comes out to approx $23 for lunch tip not included. The maduros are a must have and the hibachi. read more

Jasmine Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Went there expecting to get yummy, succulent crab meat. Their "crabs" were the small type that could fit in your hand. The entire crab had been cooked...OVER cooked. Any meat. That could be found in the claws had shriveled up to the point it wasn't worth the effort it takes to crack the claw open. And the legs on the small crabs were the size of straws, so i knew there wasn't any point of trying to get get meat from them. So, i saw they had crab meat being served separately. I got myself a helping of that only to find out it was that cheap, pasty, rubbery imitation crab meat that can only fool anyone that's never had real crab meat before. ENOUGH. I give it ONE star only because I can't leave zero star reviews. read more

It's our first time at Jasmine Buffet. The size of the restaurant and food selection took us by surprise. When you first walk in, there is a beautiful fountain. The food selection was from traditional Chinese buffet items to bbq ribs and chicken to pizza and chicken strips. Something for everyone! But the best is the hibachi grill. Choose you mix of vegetables, rice, noodles, chicken, steak, beef, crab, shrimp and more...all cooked to order! Enjoy! read more
