It was a Sunday afternoon Memorial Day weekend 2026 around 2:30pm and the restaurant was not too crowded and no wait, but comfortably visited by hungry patrons. The food was good, freshly stocked and overall a great buffet experience for our family. The crab legs were fresh and there was a bit of a wait sometimes before refilling the tray, but that was because people grabbed them up pretty quickly. I don't eat sushi and not a big fan of Mongolian even if they had it at this time, so the lack of both did not bother me at all. For an asian buffet experience this was perfect for our family as we were staying in Vacaville for the day. The place felt like the Milpitas buffet in Milpitas which is a local place we visit from time to time. If we lived in Vacaville we would probably visit Kings Buffet regularly. read more

I've been going to Kings Buffet since I moved to Vacaville in 2004. The food isn't gourmet but tasty Asian and freshly made. The decor is dated and worn, but I'm here to eat a hearty meal, not worry about ambience. I love bringing people here because there is such a wide variety ---including American--- that everyone will find plenty that they like to eat. One friend liked that there isn't loud music so we could have a nice conversation while we eat. Everyone I've introduced to Kings Buffet like it so much they come back with their friends. It's really affordable, too. And I don't have to drive to Sacramento or the Bay Area to get a good Asian meal. read more

Good selection of foods, ribs were chewy and no lack taste , chow mein was basic., Watered down ice cream milk just costing outlets ; may not be back. read more

The food here is ok, not too bad! Service is great, and honestly a lot cleaner than most places, tables and floors are cleaned and free of falling or extra food. The place is a little outdated, but hey for what it is, it's a decent buffet. Would I come back? Yes I would read more

By far the worse buffet I've been too. First off- I'm not a buffet person, my daughter is, and for that reason she was excited and we went. Her excitement changed fast, because the food was bland and just down right horrible. On top of that- my review, my opinion, the server we had rushed us. Within 25 minutes he had given me our bill. He kept looking over like we were going to run out the door. He never once circled back to provide a refill on our waters or the sofas that were ordered. He stalked my our damn table for that check for 15 minutes and to the point that we were so uncomfortable we LEFT! Yes, I paid for the bland, NASTY and overpriced buffet. read more

Food is decent for the low priced buffet. Surprisingly the waiter gave us the bill shortly after getting our first round of food. The seafood was hit or miss but we got to try everything and just kept going back for the things we liked which honestly wasn't that much. Won't be back unfortunately. read more

Worse buffet ever! Don't waste your money guys! The foods are not fresh at all! Service is good but the foods is terrible! What a waste of money! read more

Had lunch with my parents here the other day. We've been here before a while ago and it was okay, but nowadays it's just not it. Some of the food I got on my plate was cold by the time I got to my table and started eating it. They also don't have as much options really. I recommend going to Hibachi in Fairfield instead. read more

Plenty of food. Service good. Went there soonest it opened that day expecting fresh fresh fresh! Disappointing to find some of the food wasn't even reheated from before and some of the deserts old-er-ish. But there was an enormous array of choices. Next time I'll know what to pick to eat if we go again. read more

Clean & Quiet place. Very satisfied Food and good customer service from reception Lady to service guy. Thank you read more

Not good. Not that bad. I primarily ate the oysters. They didn't like that! Certainly not stellar, but noticed there were no Asians there... except the owners. read more

So I went here for a reception after a funeral. You know the thing to do and easy to organize at these types of buffets. Good location and easy to find. Parking spaces are tiny even for my Honda accord. You can see this place from the freeway. Good size restaurant and there is a private room for about 50 people to rent and one server attending. They were not friendly and I meant smiling. Always all business. They were very attentive when needed though. The tables and booths were very old. They definitely need an upgrade. They had utensils and napkins all on display instead of hidden. As for the food, there was a big selection but not much meet for a Saturday. I was surprised. I saw chicken wings which was good. Pork chops looked like old steak pieces but ok tasting. I saw Mongolian beef which was all mainly broccoli. They did replenish many times during the lunch we were there. There was a good size salad bar, seafood bar, dessert bar, fried food but just nothing special. ...Sorry to say. I do like their soft serve ice cream. ;). Hehe All in all, my friends paid a decent price but there should be more meat. No beef steaks or anything. Nothing special. I guess I am not really into these types of buffets unless it's in Vegas! Hehe. [1 R, 2023] read more

King's Buffet - a parking lot with cars parked in front of it - Chinese Near Me - Vacaville, California

Been there several times and each time the food quality was good. Always stocked and never out of items. Quickly restocked when items were low. Food quality has always been consistent. Very wide variety of foods. Weekend menue has more items offered. Great value and friendly atmosphere. read more

I've been coming here since I was little. Good food. Fast service. Fair price. Came for lunch with my mom today and we paid about $30 for 2 buffet and she got a soda. I really like their general tso chicken and their fried plantains :) Mine and my mom's favorite thing is to look at their little bracelets and trinkets at the pay counter. read more

Love how fresh everything is the food is so good. The service here is amazing would recommend.

Fresh dood for early bird. I like the seafood and vegetables. Clean place and ambience

Tables and chairs are outdated and some of the food tasted like it was from the day before. The best food options were the oysters, pork chop, chow mein and ice cream. Service was good though. read more

There was no Mongolian BBQ or sushi (the sign said until further notice), and a lot of the food was poor quality. The broccoli beef looked and tasted like it was left over from the night before and the "teriyaki chicken" was dry and had no flavor. The wonton soup and appetizers were edible, but not much else. The service was also very bad. The server was too busy staring at his phone to notice I needed a refill on my iced tea. This used to be one of my favorite buffet years ago when I lived in Fairfield, but the quality and service have gone downhill substantially since! I'm sure there are other better Chinese buffet restaurants in the area. read more

Just left paid 90$ waste of money NO SUSHI NO MONGOLIAN FOOD all food was old overly salty absolutely disgusting. This place is a joke

I am giving this place 4 stars. Here what I found unique about King's Buffet is that there is a buffet not far from the factory outlet. The selection of food was OK. I gone here during dinner and it wasn't packed. I wasn't happy on how my food tasted. Inside the place is relaxing. Plenty of clean tables. I would give this place a lower review but since I only been there once I thought I would be nice. read more

We ate here a long time ago, when they were new and it was ok at least the place was nicer. Fast forward to today... the place is run down. Food is not consistent. Sometimes it's good most of the time it's not. They got rid of their sushi and Mongolian bbq. Not the best place to eat at, not unless you're desperate. read more

This Chinese buffet is definitely sub par. The selection of hot food can't compare with what you will find in Sacramento. They appear to pad their offerings with cheap cold stuff like Jello. You would be better served by going to a sit down Chinese restaurant if you are staying in Vacaville. If you see this place from I-80 keep going to find better Chinese buffets. read more

The food was great!! Some of the kalimari was hard but the rest of the food was absolutely to DIE for!! My favorite was most-likely the General T'so Chicken, it was the mix between slightly spicy and sweet! 1000/10 would definitely recommend this for those who love anything that tastes like orange chicken!! The Service was amazing! The girl who gave us our table and the guy who gave us our waters we're so sweet. They guy often checked up on us to make sure we we're having a good time, and it made me and my mother feel very VERY welcomed and valued. The guy who waited us was named Jose (I don't know how to spell it, my apologies.) But he was a very kindhearted person and from the minute we sat down, he was all just smiles and kindness, he definitely deserves a raise! But don't get me started on the Ambiance of the whole place. Everyone felt like they knew eachother and we felt like a family (or at least I did ). The whole staff team was very welcoming and the pink Chandeliers above the buffet was a very nice and soft touch to the entire aesthetic of the place. The entire buffet inside and out just screamed great food; but the main point is the ambiance of the whole place is just warm. It gives off a very warm and comforting vibe. Overall; I would DEFINITELY recommend this to my friends & family. Seems like a very nice place to hangout and gossip about people at our jobs anyways, the food, service and ambiance is a 1000000/10. Kings buffet 4 life !!! read more

I've been a few times. Food is good and they have a good selection of food for me since I don't eat meat or seafood. The people are nice too. Price is good too. read more

We came here because it used to be a favorite of mine so I was so excited to show my SO. The prices are reasonable and the selection was ok there just was some sections that lacked like the salad bar. The food was ok some of it was really cold despite being in a warmer, some of the fried items or finger foods were either cold or stale so they change or refill when it gets low not when it has been sitting out too long. The restaurant was semi clean, we were not greeted for upon entering we waited 5 mins and were just asked "can I help you?" The server was very courteous and smiley though. A little disappointed in how the food went down hill though. SHUT IT DOWN. We told them that they should Check the warmers cause a lot of the food was cold and they didn't ! read more

I had my Birthday here and I loved the food, very tasty I would recommend anyone who loves good food read more

Nasty food, only good thing was the Mexican guy cooking the noodles. Mid deserts too. Mid mid mid

Good food at a very reasonable price. The coconut shrimp didn't look appetizing, but we're devious. I'll be back. read more

The food is alright for couple of choices of Asian cuisine around the area. It'll be much more better for more Asian cuisine choices as well and price is good for number of servings in each containers slot. In addition, staff seem friendly from time to time. Overall, it's an okay to visit here driving by around the city. read more

Clean the place up. I used to love this place. It was cleaner and the food was better. Food didn't taste as fresh like it did in the past. It seems like the food is out on the warmers longer. Some of the food was cold as if some of the warmers were not working. I feel the place needs improvements and upgrades and possibly shut down, if nothing changes. it's only a matter of time. I went there twice before I posted this review. Thank goodness Hibachi Grill in Fairfield where Hometown Buffet used to be opened up. That place is the spot to be at. read more

I don't expect outstanding food from Chinese food buffets in general, as I am not a picky eater so I usually find enough to get my fill and then some. This place was no different: dingy carpet, torn booth benches, outdated chairs/tables, straight-faced servers...the yoozh. Food had a decent selection. Taste was average. Nothing stood out except the fact that this one had egg tarts (the chinese buffets in my area don't). We ate with a large group, so there was a portion of the dining area sectioned off for us. My specific table was 7 people and the servers were having a bit of trouble keeping the drink orders straight, but we got through it. I didn't pay for my meal, so I would definitely return here if someone paid for it...otherwise, it wouldn't be my first choice for a meal. read more

For its price it can't be beat, super clean and with the pandemic going on I'm glad they are still open, staff is super friendly and responds quickly, all you can eat seafood at dinner? You have to not like seafood to come here, if not you get your money's worth and you will not be disappointed read more

King's Buffet - Dinner time: Cheesy mussels, coconut shrimp, shumai!!! - Chinese Near Me - Vacaville, California

The food of the buffet is excellent, the service is great and I give five of stars of five stars .

It was a good spread , just like what you would expect from a Chinese food buffet , good salad bar and fruit bar ..

Wide variety of seafood; plenty of seating. Get there early as food sometimes doesn't get replenished at times. The oysters were great if they don't run out. A little ways to drive from Roseville, but if you're going to the Vacaville, premium outlets is only 1/2 mile from there. read more

Our waiter was great and the food was good. It's worth what you pay for. Highly recommend.

I'll never go back Found this mold on the way past the kitchen area. Disgusting. You can tell this has been here awhile. read more

Food not fresh. Used to have great sushi and seafood variety. But now I don't trust their quality so I haven't gone in over a year.
