The servers are nice but definitely have that slow town feel where they talk to customer for quite a while. Given it's a serve yourself buffet, I can't complain. The place itself was part Val's family portraits and part Huskers. Seems about right for Nebraska. It was cozy and inviting. They had plenty of options and all the favs here. And if anything was low or sat for too long, they are more than happy to refresh. I really liked the dessert options that I never get when ordering to-go. The prices were actually surprisingly reasonable. And to top it off, kids under 10 eat free on Tuesdays. Not a place you can eat too often and maintain your figure, but we will be back!

Runza only has gluten free fries and we just made the decision to try out Valentinos and see if it's still good since my husband had it growing up. This is a buffet style restaurant, even though you can order your own gf pizza, but we ordered it for the Buffett and they bring it to you to get as many pieces as you want before they put it on the buffet for others to eat. Soooo nice!!! We got a meat lovers gf pizza and it was surprisingly yummy!!!! We enjoyed the salad, the small town, and we had the nicest waitress!!! She explained our options for gf. We are not buffet fans but we had a lovely time and if we are traveling through Nebraska City again, this is the only place we will stop. (There is a cute cafe in Auburn NE that is with a stop)

The restaurant seemed very clean inside and outside. The buffet food had alot to offer. There was a lot of different chicken dishes and also fish. I liked their fried rice and noodles. The egg rolls were hot and yummy! I also enjoyed the Rangoons, with a great cream cheese filling and their dumplings also good. The beef and broccoli and the shrimp with broccoli were both tasty. The tomato bisque and veggie minestrone both were wonderful soups with beautiful texture. Since I ate more than usual, I just had water to wash it all down. To top off the afternoon, I had some soft serve chocolate vanilla swirl and a cream puff. What a great visit. So, we did the China Buffet part. On the next visit, I will definitely do the Mongolian Grill part in the near future!!! A special thanks to my parents for guiding and treating me here for lunch!

We made a last minute decision to stop by when we were in the area recently. Mostly because I feel…read morelike it's truly been years since we've stepped foot in a Chinese buffet, and there's something nostalgic about it. As a buffet, they did a great job making efforts to have a variety of options from garlic pepper chicken to beef and broccoli to fried squid to a salad bar to sushi, etc. Unfortunately, most of the hot bar items were very cold, despite seeing visible steam coming off of the serving trays, so I'm not sure what the issue was there, or if it was an "off" day. Most of the chicken options available were also seemingly battered and fried, and this pretty dry and unpleasant to eat. I'd recommend filling up on the hibachi grill before grabbing buffet items to fill in the cracks.

It has that perfect small-town vibe--friendly, welcoming service that makes you feel right at home the minute you walk in. The food is everything you want from a local steakhouse: hearty, delicious, and clearly made with love. From juicy steaks to comforting home-cooked sides, every bite hit the spot. It's the kind of meal that makes you slow down and savor it. The atmosphere is cozy and laid-back, making it perfect for a relaxed family dinner or catching up with good friends. You don't feel rushed--just appreciated and well-fed. If you're in the area (or even if you're not), it's absolutely worth the short drive. Support local, eat well, and leave happy!
