    Impressive selection on a late weekday evening. Good quality food and worth the trip. The service and staff seem generally friendly, although they just take you to your seat. The ambiance is mostly quiet and lively around the food of course... Great place to go if you like Asian food and you can't decide what you want specifically, or if you have no idea what you want you'll find something! Reasonably priced and no regrets!

    Nice large size buffet with multiple different food offering. They had sushi stations and mangolian barbeque. Overall selection of food was good, service was good. I recommend this place for anyone who is hungry and looking for buffet place. It was $23 including tip so it was a good price for lunch. The ambiance is nothing to mention, just regular buffet place with the large number of tables and chairs.

    King Buffet is definitely our go to place to eat as a family. Especially with having a little one that is always unpredictable in terms of what he wants to eat. Kids below 3 or 4 eat for free btw. This location is always consistent with the way their food tastes as well. On top of this place being a buffet, they also have a sushi/rolls area for you to choose from as well as a Mongolian bbq area where you choose what meat, vegetables, noodles and toppings you want and they cook it in front of you. They have a lot of different kinds of food to choose from, from fried food (chicken, shrimp, meat) to the traditional Chinese entrees such as sesame chicken, beef and broccoli, mushroom to seafood such as crawfish, fried shrimp, lobster and fish skillets. To top it off, they have soup such as hot and sour, egg drop and wonton soup. There is definitely a lot of food to choose from. What I usually get is ribs, fried chicken, fried cheese wonton, and their California roll. When I do want some beef, I get beef from the Mongolian bbq place and tell the cook to cook it medium well, which they usually follow, if not, sometimes the cook doesn't understand any English lol. Service here is always good, the waiter and waitresses are always attentive in terms of them picking up your used plates to giving you a drink refill. The desert section is awesome too. They have ice cream cones that will serve you soft serve chocolate and vanilla, to vanilla/chocolate ice cream that's already in a to go cup ready to go. And they have puddings such as tapioca pudding, chocolate pudding and banana cream pudding. This place never disappointed us and is the best bang for your buck in terms of food. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting

    My two former co-workers and I decided to come here since I told him I would take him out for his birthday, which was long overdue. Parking: The parking is big and adjacent to other local businesses. Food: The Chinese noodles, beef broccoli, and fried rice were surprisingly good. The fish and cooked oysters were not so good. Service: They ask you if you would like anything to drink and any refills. They do this because unlike most buffets, that have a soda dispenser or fountain, they do not. They have to get it for you, so they can charge you one each one. Ambiance: The ambiance is nice, and decent, better than most buffets I have been to. Price: I was confused about the price because they have a sign posted saying lunch is $13, and dinner is $17. However, when I asked to confirm the prices, she told me lunch was $17 per person. The total bill for my former co-worker and I, was $40 I believe, maybe a few dollars more. Overall, I am not sure I am going to come back. I felt like I was being rushed, and kicked out, which that has never happened to me before. We arrived at 11:00 AM and were given the bill as I was eating, sometime before 12:00 PM. The food is decent, but because of them handing me the bill when I was eating and there less for an hour, I mostly likely may not be coming back.

    They are a good place to come eat with the family for a buffet. They have a lot of seafood and some grilled chicken and fries also. They have a dessert section, but it's never really good in my opinion. They have soft serve ice cream. Overall my family likes coming here and we all enjoy it.

    Food was not great and not a lot of options. Service was not good. And the ambiance gave the feel of a repurposed casino.

    A longtime favorite for authentic Cantonese food and excellent dim sum!…read more Amazing dim sum options, especially on the weekends when the carts roll out hot and fresh. The Siu Mai (pork and shrimp) is savory and juicy -- definitely one of my favorites. I also tried the Shrimp with Chive Dumplings, and they were surprisingly excellent: juicy, savory, with a nice fresh onion flavor. The Steamed BBQ Pork Buns are pillowy soft and practically melt in your mouth with their sweet shredded pork filling. Pro tip: Just eat the fried shrimp balls! The sweet and lightly mustard-tangy sauce that comes with them, combined with some sweet chili sauce, is absolute heaven. Just don't burn your mouth when they bring them out fresh from the fryer -- you're welcome. Order 3 dim sum plates if you're hungry, or 4 if you're starving or sharing with others. It's the perfect amount! The service is good -- friendly and attentive -- but it can get a little slow when they're busy, which is often. You can tell this is a popular spot that's been a favorite in the area for many years. The large groups that regularly file into the private dining room in the back say it all. Whether you're coming for weekend dim sum, a big family meal, or classic Cantonese dishes, Red Maple consistently delivers that comforting, high-quality experience. Highly recommend -- I've been back many times and will go again soon!

It's pretty far from my house but I'm still on the hunt for a great Chinese restaurant to love! If you live in SLC please send me your recommendations

The two stars are for the management, not the employees. We came in for lunch on a Saturday, and the dining room was unbearably hot. It honestly felt like eating in an indoor sauna. At first, we thought the AC was broken. After asking about it, we were told that the staff couldn't adjust the AC without the owner's approval, and the owner was out of town. I can't verify whether that's actually the policy, but if that's what happened, it's hard to understand why no one could make the restaurant comfortable for both customers and the employees working there--especially considering how hot it's been lately. That experience left a really bad impression. If saving on air conditioning was the reason, I think that's a poor decision that comes at the expense of everyone's comfort. While writing this review, I also noticed another google review from someone who said they had concerns about how management treated employees. I can't speak to their experience, but combined with what I experienced, it doesn't leave me with much confidence. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be coming back

For starters, we ordered the Wor Wonton Soup. The broth was rich and hearty. The shrimps were large and plentiful. All the vegetables blended in with the flavors. I just wish the beef was a little more tender. A little marinade in baking soda would fix this. We ordered some chicken lettuce wraps. This has minced chicken, celery, bamboo shoots, and carrots. These are good by themselves but are best with hoisin sauce. I just wish the lettuce leaves were bigger. The Honey Walnut Shrimp was also good. The sauce had a nice blend of mayo, honey and lemon. It had a little too much breading for me but still tasted good. For $16.99, I wished there was a bit more shrimp. One thing I really appreciate - they GLAZE the walnuts! This is one of the few places that I actually like the sauce and they glaze the walnuts! The Crispy Beef is definitely my favorite. In fact, I think this is better than the one I get from Red Maple. It was not too sweet and had just the right amount of heat. Again, I really wish they would marinate the beef in baking soda to soften it up. The last dish we ordered was the Garlic Chicken. The server forgot to put the order in for this dish and there was a rush to get it out to us. They forgot to put garlic in this dish so wee sent it back. It was perfect when it came back. This place is fast becoming our go-to-place for Chinese Food. It's was a nice surprise and I'll can't wait to try the other dishes!

The look of the restaurant inside has changed a few times. when I was there last there was a casual seating area at the back of the restaurant. There were people there waiting for takeout orders. I really enjoyed the great chow mein with the beef. Next time I might try it with chicken or pork because the beef was a little hard to chew for my liking. The noodles tasted delicious and flavorful. I always have to order the cold cucumber salad. It is a great accompaniment to any dish. I added the peanuts to the cucumbers because I really like them together so if you order the cucumbers, they will not come with peanuts. It is a strange request, but they accommodated me with no problem. They had a case at the front of the restaurant with grapes and strawberries, skewered and coated in a crunchy sugary coating. It was a little bit messy, but I did not mind because it tasted so good. The strawberries were super sweet, fresh and juicy with a thin, sweet crunchy shell. I will try the grapes next time.

We were stopping in SLC for a few days on our way home from CO, and I really wanted Malatang. I saw there was a chain Malatang place and Mr. D's, so obviously we had to go with the locally-owned one. The restaurant was small, but the lighting was bright and everything was clean and tidy. The station to build your own bowl was kept at proper holding temperature. There was a good variety of everything, and the owner was even bringing out fresh rolls of frozen meat when we arrived. The veggies were fresh as well. I really liked that the trays we put our raw ingredients on were wrapped with plastic for extra food safety. After we finished choosing our ingredients, we went up to the counter and told the owner how we wanted our Malatang to be prepared. I went with the mild spicy bone broth and my husband went with the spicy dry pot. While we waited, we prepared our sauce. I like to add extra garlic and chili oil to mine, as well as green onions and cilantro. We decided to just share one bowl of sauce this time. This Malatang place also comes with free unlimited rice, which is not something I've seen at other Malatang places in NorCal. We didn't end up getting any rice because we had plenty of ingredients in our individual bowls, but if we were sharing, then we probably would have gotten rice. Considering the price of the Malatang was only $15 a pound, what a steal. It was nice to watch the owner prepare our Malatang right behind the checkout counter! Everything was piping hot when it was ready to be picked up. You are in charge of getting your own food when the buzzer rings. We especially liked that the fish/meat balls we selected were cut in half to make sure they were cooked the entire way through. The bone broth was deliciously flavorful and silky, and the meat was tender. All the ingredients were so good! Upon adding some of my sauce, that definitely turned my broth into a flavor bomb. My husband's dry pot was delightfully numbing and spicy, and all the ingredients were coated evenly. He was also a big fan. While we ate, more people arrived, and I was glad that all the Asians knew this place was the place for Malatang. Soon, the restaurant was almost full. We wrapped up our meal and left feeling satisfied and happy. I would definitely recommend Mr. D's Malatang for those needing their Malatang fix while in SLC (and of course for locals who love Malatang too) and can't wait to return the next time we visit.

The noodles were kind of flat, not like what I'm used to more rounded egg noodles. The fried rice had ham in it and I don't eat pork. They had a lot of different options. Shrimp was included. Teriyaki beef what they called. And extras were the wonton, sesame balls, veggie eggrolls, etc... I took my main side as noodles,then sides as beef and broccoli, beef teriyaki, and tempura shrimp. They asked at the end if you want Sawsan they add it to your compartment you pay roughly $11 and change. I like the noodles I didn't love them, beef and broccoli was good. Probably would've been better if it was fresh. The shrimp was pretty tasty with the side sauce. Kind of reminded you sweet honey and walnut temporary shrimp that you get from other places. Just without the walnuts and the sauce on the side, which is pretty nice because sometimes you can get too sweet. The fried beef teriyaki, absolutely not. That was by far probably the worst thing I've tasted. The meat did not taste like meat. I ended up taking a bite and throwing it out. Honestly, I think if you can get the food super fresh when they put it out it probably taste a lot better so that's why I gave it three out of five stars. One for the customer service, two for most of the food being decent, and three for the simplicity of putting whatever you want basically self-serve.. Until next time, happy yelping
