They only have a buffet and we weren't offered a menu if we wanted anything in particular. They had no iced tea but they carry Pepsi beverages. On the other hand we got there early when it opened. They were prompt and cordial. The buffet had a delicious variety of foods and deserts and I did have a plate of different foods that were excellent. read more

Good food , clean facilities, friendly service. Good variety on the selection, especially with the sushi. Could service a few more vegetables. read more

Worst food that I have ever eaten in my entire life. Terrible management Avoid this place not worth the money. Food had been sitting out all day. read more

This food was terrible was not even fried rice not swee and sour. Nothing was good about this restaurant. read more

Before the renovations, I would have given them 5 stars but since the renovations and reopening in April 2026, I'm disappointed in the take out food options. They no longer carry pan fries noodles. It's more like fettuccine type pasta. I wanted pork fried rice & was told it was no longer available. I also ordered chicken fried rice and it looked & tasted like they took regular fried rice, cut up some chicken & mixed it in. Take out items was a thumbs down for me. As for the buffet, it was pretty good. A lot of options to choose from but the spring rolls weren't warm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the new flooring.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] ​ read more

This is place is so much better than Route 66 buffet. All you can eat sushi was amazing! I'll be visiting soon again! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also remodeled the whole place, it's so beautiful![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 10/10 read more

Visited recently(8/29) and was really disappointed! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables were sticky with trash underneath, and I had to grab my own highchair (after i asked for one & was given a booster seat).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food stations looked very unappealing with messy counters and food that seemed like it had just been reheated. Tried to brush it off but after trying the food...tried the sweet & sour chicken, potstickers, and beef & broccoli. The chicken breading was undercooked, the potstickers were rock hard, and the beef & broccoli had a strange fishy taste. For $16, this was not worth it at all. Save your time and money--head to Hong Kong on 1323 U.S. Route 66 instead! read more

A hometown favorite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place has gone downhill since the mid-90s and early 2000s and it's sad the probably thousands of dollars of great woodwork inside this place has not been up kept and is dirty and worn.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm sure it cost a pretty penny and just wasted away in here. As far as Gallup goes, this is one of the better places to go! read more

They need to improve their food, everything was probably days old. The rice was hard while the noodles tastes like it wasn't cooked right. The more I think about it the more I wished I didn't eat there. 39$ for dog food at restaurant is nuts read more

Use to like the food, but the last order was bad. I ordered the Green Pepper Beef meal - there was no flavor, the meat was dry and grainy, and the rice was undercooked. They no longer offer the Chicken Almond meal for dinner. I probably won't eat there any more. read more

Service was quick. Food was good. Sadly, they're usually out of something. This time it was fountain drinks... [[HIGHLIGHT]]enjoyed the time with the family![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Food is good but would be even greater if you brought back the cobbler, the coffee cake, spring rolls, and have Jasmine rice (sticky rice) in addition to the Minute rice read more

As a child the food, the people, and the environment was amazing And even had birthday events there in the past. Im not sure what happened but it was terrible. Only ate a few bites and still wasn't accommodated anything considering I explained that we weren't happy with the food. Only spent 10-15 minutes and left. $40 wasted for food that tasted terrible. Although there were other options, my stomach already began hurting so I left. Personally I won't be coning back. read more

People using old plates going back to the buffet, [[HIGHLIGHT]]And you can bring in your dog and feed it food from the buffet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Made complaint to Assistant manager. read more

We got the buffet, lots of choices. Food was good. I find that I always get the same items. I'd say I come here maybe once or twice a year. read more

Terrible just terrible twenty bucks for this crap come on none of the chinese food at this place was good The only things i enjoyed was the non Chinese offerings they had except for the beef rib which for some reason taste like chocolate pudding to me skip this place entirely and head to other Chinese spots in town but I would ditch california Chinese and dragon express those places are bad too read more

Great place to eat for sure in a town overblown with Mexican restaurants! Also the buffet looks amazing I must try on my next visit!

This is the best place in town me and my kids got full in one plate EAT HERE NOW Thank you read more

Worst Chinese food I've ever tasted. It was actually inedible. We ordered mongolian beef, green beans, and spring rolls. The only thing we ate were the spring rolls. The rest, including the rice, tasted like garbage. When we complained, they did not offer to take the foul food off our bill. We had to eat real Chinese food later in order to erase the foul taste from our mouths. DO NOT EAT HERE! read more

Always ate in the restaurant was pretty good this I ordered to go and the food was nasty ,ordered shrimp fried and pan fried noodles ,let's start off with the rice it was hard and shrimp was rubbery it was a total bust then the noodle had no taste and meat seem to be steamed or something wasn't worth the 45 bucks waste of money so stay away from shrimp rice and beef lo main better off going to Panda Express read more

The food was so much better when the restaurant was at the old location. I came by hoping for something at least passable but I was disappointed. No, more than disappointed, I was actually grossed out. The food is simply nasty. Even Panda Express is better. It's like they simply don't care anymore. I will never come back here. I advise others looking for edible Asian cuisine to look elsewhere too. The founder must be so saddened by the steep dive this place has taken. read more

Best Egg Drop Soup we've ever had! We ordered the dumplings, sesame chicken and orange chicken. The steamed dumping were steamed gyoza and pretty good with the sauce. The sesame chicken and orange chicken were excellent! The orange chicken is very saucy fyi. Portion sizes were large could have been split between 2 people. The only down side was that the rice portion was small and barely enough. Also, someone in our group ordered sweet and sour chicken and it came out with the chicken already tossed in the sauce. Sweet and sour chicken is supposed to have the sauce on the side. Luckily, they were nice enough to swap it out with some with the sauce on the side instead. The staff was great! Several workers came over to say hi to us. I have no idea why this place has such a low rating on Yelp. The only thing I can think of is that the buffet isn't back open yet, but they said it should be within the next couple months. Chinese food is my favorite and this place hit the spot. read more

Good food. I also like the service. Just a good place to eat. My go to is the snow peas with chicken. Also a fan of the noodle soup. Fried dumplings are yum. read more

!!!PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE!!! TRIGGER WARNING Me and some friends are here on 7/31/2021 and we all ordered dishes with chicken in it. We waited about an hour for our food and when we received it we dug in. A couple bites in we noticed that the "chicken" did not taste right and had a very chewy, sour taste. We then took a closer look at the "chicken" and realized the meat was very odd in shape. Some had bumps, others were stringy ( like the intestines from an animal). I have no idea what they used but it was definitely not chicken. For your safety I would not recommend eating here please. There has been news articles that state that king dragon uses snake as a meat in their dishes and this is proved by health inspectors. ‼‼ PLEASE GET THE WORD OUT‼‼ especially if your are a local. read more

Through the pandemic that has impacted all businesses in Gallup, this place has been able to provide food through drive thru service. We recently visited this place and have been aware that their buffet is closed. We ordered from the menu and noticed only 2 servers working and tending to about 15 tables total. These two servers were able to handle a small rush and get everyone situated. Our particular server was kind and super polite through the rush and managed to tend to all her tables. Extraordinary customer service from her with a polite demeanor! Not only that, when we were ready to leave, We asked for a tray for our left over order. One minute later,she came to our table with the small box and a cup for our sons water and told us she took care of our ticket. Super shocked, we asked her why! All we got from her was, "don't worry about it. I took care of it, I got it for you!!" We never got her name but we appreciate the gesture so much and made she she was aware of that! So this place is a place to stop!! read more

Food was cold to begin with. The fried rice with pork, beef and chicken had a strange taste, noodles was spaghetti, shrimp was mystery meat. My hot and spicy soup was cold. Spring rolls were overly fried burnt. The crispy noodles had a piece of white meat in it. Makes me wonder if they put back what was left on customer table. The wait staff was taking ice for the drinks out of a bucket that was on floor. Lesson learned. Do not ever return! Even with the 10-year hiatus, the food is worst than before. Save your stomach and money. I am going to retch again after this review read more

This place is a rip off, do not book this place for a party or a reception!! You will be overcharged!! We booked the place for a graduation reception, we had estimated 45 guests to show, only 27 people had actually showed up for the party, when all was said and done we were still charged for the 45 guests! We had also paid a $300 deposit, and they tried to cheat us out of that as will, DO NOT HAVE YOUR PARTY HERE!! read more

Absolutely amazing buffet. Their seafood selection was very good and fresh tasting. Their selection of items and food is the best I've ever had. read more

The worst place to eat and the sad part this is one of a few Chinese restaurants. We ordered egg drop soup to go we got home which was 25 mins away to sit down and eat our soup. The soup was horrible it was watered down. We went back to the restaurant to get our refund there was no apology, the manager already knew there was a problem to begin with because that person never came out to speak to us. This place needs to have better customer service for goodness sake appreciate your customers read more

Inconsistent quality. Removing it from our Gallup restaurant list. Too much sauce on every single dish on the buffet, way too much vinegar in the hot & sour soup (inedible). It's too bad because it used to be quite good. Must have a new chef who lacks knowledge of the culture and food prep. read more

I had eaten here with my family, and the food wasn't fresh. Their egg soup was creamy and it was the last of it no one came to replenish the food, if you want the FRESH food you have to be there right when it opens. The price to eat here is ridiculous, they charge so much for non-fresh food. The service was neutral, but like i said my family and I didn't stay for long though. The setting is the same as it always is. The food just seems to not be refilled, and not as fresh. read more

I thought this place was awesome. BUT, it's ok. The only thing that's cool is the Buddha when you walk in. They didn't have shrimp. And the food didn't have that "Asian flavor/flair". The food was very bland. I can say that the restaurant is VERY CLEAN. AND THE SERVICE WAS GREAT!!! read more

Not bad for a Chinese buffet in Gallup. Clean, ornate wall designs, wide buffet assortment, and expansive restaurant (enough room for our big group). Starting at $9.50 for adults, the buffet is a pretty good deal. Fried rice, chicken and broccoli, orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken, fried shrimp, mixed vegetables - you get the idea. read more

Well then! Where do I start?! This is not a typical Chinese restaurant as you would know it. Things are a little backwards like, chow mein as we know it is called pan fried noodles here...comes with little crunchiest and a random cherry on top the egg drop soup has different vegetables in it along with chicken... we came here to eat at the buffet but there was LITERALLY nothing out there. Quite disappointing. read more

If you are in the neighborhood, stop and take a photo of the colorful exterior, then drive elsewhere for your meal. I ate here as part of a group, and we had the dinner buffet. The only thing that I could rate as "passable" were the whole mushrooms, green beans and the spicy eggplant. The green beans and the eggplant both ran out, and only the green beans were refilled while we were there. No, I'm not a vegetarian, it's just that most of the meat and seafood dishes were not appealing and those that were didn't taste good. I will say, the individually wrapped almond cookies were excellent. So If you are forced to eat here, as I was, grab a few extra cookies to satisfy your hunger! read more

The food was really good, with huge portions! So if you're going by yourself, be prepared for leftovers. The service was good, our waitress was right on top of getting us drinks and making sure we were taken care of. read more

Food wasn't like it use to be, last time I had king dragon was before they moved it. Half the food wasn't available. Never going back there.

For Gallup it's as good as it gets. Lots to choose from, very good! I really like the wontons and egg drop soup! Also very nice on the inside! read more

We have eaten here several times and each time it got worse. The last time we both got sick, my husband much worse than me......never again!! Spend your money elsewhere in Gallup read more
