Honestly it wasn't the best, it was hot inside. The food was not that good and we only got checked on once. I gave it a chance but the reviews speak for themselves - signed a pregnant food monster Edit to add, my fortune cookie was 3 months late?! haha read more

Food is fine it's not Gorden Ramsey shit but it's okay the servers are nice it's clean as far as I can tell but there is one thing that really turns my head. The bathrooms. The toilet paper is paper thin yet you have to throw it away?! What the actual fuck? read more

My son and I ate at King's Buffet last night. We were impressed by all of the remodeling they have done. The food was delicious and very fresh. The restaurant was super clean, and the staff was friendly as always. I like the real plates and silverware. We will be back again soon. read more

My daughter selected Kings Buffet after her softball game. The Buffett was well stocked and had a variety of options. Most everything was good. I did not like their hot and sour soup had a funny taste. Everything else was good. I did have to flag the waitress down to get our waters refilled. Otherwise everything was ok. Overall it was good. My daughter sure loved it. read more

Sushi had fruit flys all over it. Tables and chairs were covered in food and flys. The food you can tell was very old and hard absolutely would not recommend coming to this place to eat read more

I really hesitated eating here at King buffet. The business only uses styrofoam plates and plastic forks and plastic spoons. I was very pleased with the authenticity of the food. It was amazing and authentic. I forgot to take pictures but I did take a picture of their homemade dumplings. They were the bomb. I don't Normally eat sushi but the sushi they had on the buffet, one of the rolls was deep fat fried and they were amazing. Reasonably priced read more

King's Buffet - Dumpling - Buffets Near Me - Kearney, Nebraska

Thursday , February 1 and it's winter outside. A couple of minutes inside Kings Buffet and I realize that's it's extremely hot and humid inside. Like New Orleans in the summer time. Widows fogged up in the inside. This restaurant has a couple of firsts that I have never seen at an oriental restaurant. Hot tea with genuine Lipton tea bags, Hot Dogs Wrapped in bacon and deep fried. And chicken nuggets for sweet and sour chicken. The building is worn and in need of serious attention. Carpet seams split all over. vinyl seat covers torn and patched with tape. I should have turned around and left in retrospect. The food was mediocre to poor in many respects. Beef that appears to have been simmered for hours to make it slimy tender. Chicken that was rubbery and pork that was similar. The Hot sour soup was basically egg drop soup without egg but added tofu and cabbage shreds. I did try one of the shrimp dishes and after a couple of chews, was relegated to the nearest napkin. Guess it's vegetarian tonight. There were a couple pure vegetable dishes. Others the vegetables had to be picked out. The staff was extraordinarily quiet. Basically limited to How many? More Drink? and Done with Plate? A poor experience at best for a Thursday night price of $14. read more

I don't normally do reviews, but I felt this place deserved one - and a good one. I grew up on Hawaii so Chinese food is in my DNA. the problem is, finding a good place is tough. I also travel for work and the same issue exists... finding a good Chinese place. For a buffet, this place isn't half bad. The food was good and they have some things I haven't seen since living in Hawaii. Their dim sum was delicious, the chicken wasn't bad and the service was very prompt. I will certainly be back! read more

Pro: very clean, nicely decorated. Con: the food is average and kind of greasy. We came at 8pm on a Thursday night, but several of the foods had been on the steam table way too long, Low or out of several others. Just don't get your hopes up. Like hundreds of other Chinese buffets... nothing special, and heavy in your digestion later. I always think, "maybe this one will be different." Nope. read more

I'd give less than a star. There was not one thing that tasted good. The egg rolls tasted rotten meat, the crab rangoon tasted sour,the honey chicken seriously was over cooked, the chicken on a stick was super chewy, the lomain was just wrong. The brownies well I think they were very old even the sprinkles didn't do it justice. I don't recommend eating there. I will never again. read more

Really good Chinese food and lots of options to choose from at a good price! I wasn't a huge fan of the sushi but everything else was very good and they were all very kind. read more

Not to bad for a buffet. Good selection. Most food was pretty fresh and it was almost 2. Generally I like to go early as possible for lunch so as get get it freshly made. Crab Rangoons were old and that was disappointing considering they are generally the best in town. Unlike Hunans Buffet, Kings actually marinates and seasons their food and the taste shows. I do wish they would include chicken Chow Mein and. more sauce options. Over All extremely pleased. AT $7.50 you can't beat a better lunch. read more

We've all been to Chinese buffet restaurants. Some splurge on atmosphere. This place doesn't. But the food works. It's always good and flavorful. It's not gourmet by any standards, but as a Chinese food buffet, it works great. The best thing it has going is the carry-out specials. You can load up a 1-trip buffet box, have it weighed, and then skip back to work, and it's very reasonably priced. (It's also available for dinner take-out. It's more expensive, but still, it's like $5/pound for dinner or $3.50/lb for lunch. Where else can you get that kind of deal?) It also helps with portion control. Some rice, some General's Chicken, pepper chicken, egg roll-- it's all good. They also put out spring rolls as well, and actually have buffet dumplings. That's bad, by the way. Buffet dumplings. I could sit and eat them all day. Seriously. But anyway...The egg drop soup here is really good. They also have a cold bar as well where you can get salad, jello, etc. Just a warning-- it can be kind of salty. Ice Cream machine for the kids. read more

We had not been in for several months because last time lunch here, foods seemed to have off taste, like a dirty rag. We both had stomach issues and decided not here again for while. Today, a test run and all seemed back to normal good foods and no off kinds of taste. So..we like again! read more

WOW! I was never so happy to not eat steak. Actual Asian food in Nebraska!! The buffet had giant crab legs, dim sum, sushi type rolls, won ton soup, sweet and sour...all the Chinese food standards that I had come to take for granted living in LA. It's not stellar food, but it hits the spot when you are craving variety in your diet. read more

This food here is really not very good by any standard and would probably get one star but it gets an automatic two extra stars for the simple fact that this is the only place you can get sushi (albeit terrible sushi) within a 100 mile radius, as well as about 4/5 of the rest of the things on this buffet (which are slightly better). read more

Good was terrible and made me sick. It's not necessary to leave a tip at a buffet since you get your own food and refills but they added one on my credit card slip which is illegal. Don't go unless you want to get sick and have your money stolen. read more

I like the Japan chicken, everything else is interesting....place seems to be clean, the staff is nice.

We stopped at this place on our long drive back home. The quality and selection of the items are better than I expected in this small town, especially for the low price. Friendly staff. You can even do carry out by weight of the box. Kids under 10 half price. read more

The restaurant is a bit dated, but it is clean and comfortable. No loud music or games, and no tv's are a plus especially when dining with other people. They had a nice variety of foods. I don't eat pork and they had at least 8 different check dishes and 3 or 4 beef dishes. The food tasted good and was hot and didn't appear to have been sitting around for a long time. I will return next time I am in Kearney. read more

Terrible service. The lady who showed me to my seat was so rude. I couldnt eat here after such poor service. I use to eat here 7 years ago when I lived in town. Was one of my favorite places to eat, but now I'll never return. read more

Food is meh, drink is meh. I'm always worried the employees aren't going to understand me. If you're looking for a carb up place, look no further. However if you want flavor I'm sure there are better choices. read more

OMG. These people stopped making food because it was close to closing, but didn't bother to tell anyone as they were coming in. We got there at 8:30pm, walked through and noticed about 1/4 of the buffet was empty. Assuming they would continue to stock as people were still coming in, we decided to eat. What a mistake! We ate a couple plates of what was available, but they didn't stock anything while we were there. Just before we left, a group of kids and an adult came in. They cleaned off what was left. We decided to complain about the situation and refused to pay full price and were told that since it was past closing they hadn't cooked anything else, but now they would, we would just have to wait until they cooked more. Sorry, already been there an hour waiting for them and we weren't going to sit there anymore. The lady argued with us until a couple guys walked in, heard my wife discussing this situation, looked over the lack of food and walked out. 2 ladies walked in to get to go, were handed their boxes and they walked around the buffet, walked back to the register, dropped their boxes and left. This restaurant will never see us again. The food we got to try was OK, but nothing special. Definitely not worth wasting time to stop at. Gave them 1 star, cause you can't give them negative numbers. read more

This food is unsafe. Nothing we tried was at legal safe temperatures. In fact, much of our food was cold. When we asked the manager for a thermometer he laughed at us. It's one thing to have cheap buffet good, buy another all together when it's unsafe. This place needs shut down. We ended up paying for our watered down ice tea and walking out. Do not go here. read more

Many items looked... well, really sad. I ruled out maybe half the buffet on that criterion alone. But, the things I did get were good. I didn't eat in, so I can't comment on the service, but I can say that the buffet-to-go is a great value at only $4/lb. A pound of food is more than you think! read more

Decently clean. That's the only reason the place deserves a one star. The food is atrocious! Go to a fast food joint, dump a bottle of soy sauce on your food or pay way to much at this restaurant and get the same experience. Awful! read more

For an affordable Chinese dinner, this is good! It was easy to get to from our motel and the variety was great!

That may have been the worst food I have ever had. They don't even care that their food tastes disgusting, the sauces are watery, the wontons were thick hard and rubbery, etc... The alleged ice cream was not even close to ice cream. It wasn't even frozen milk, who knows what's in it. Not one thing I tasted was good enough for a second bight. Ugh. read more

I have had the chance to dine at both King's and Hunan in the past weeks. King's is by far the better choice. Way better selection and the food has better flavor. Hunan was bland and everything tasted the same, but King's had variety in items and flavor. Hands down better food. Yes the decor was not good, but it was not unsanitary as other reviews would have you believe. I eat a lot of Chinese food and this was some of the better stuff I've had. Don't be swayed by the negative reviews. read more
