    Good food
    Mancogokartrider ..

    Pretty clean and decent food and drinks. Service on the other hand needs major improvement. Don't bother trying to use a coupon that Yelp says it's able to be redeemed here. At check out, the Chinese people play like they don't understand and won't take your coupon. Then they will not let you have a drink to go without charging, even though they tell you, the drink is included with the buffet price. We won't be back.

    Cockroach under the table, disgusting

    We loved this place, absolutely became our go to. Went to celebrate our son's 10th birthday only to set our plates on the table and have a cockroach run between them. Absolutely disgusting. That is a sign of an unsanitary place. Told a lady, who told another lady who came to our table with our bill in her hand, mind you we had only eaten a few bites. She asked what it was and I shower her this picture from under the table of the roach. She said they have a pest control company, and that I still had to pay from our drinks. I said fine just to get the hell out of there. All in all, that was horrible. Manager was called who said I didn't need to pay for anything, after I already had, and then said he would give me a gift certificate I said no thank you, put that money toward a better pest control company or cleaning supplies to not ruin another family's evening. I doubt we will ever be back, that is seriously disgusting.

    Overall: I would say this place is about 3.5 stars, but Yelp doesn't give that option! This is a smaller town and this buffet is pretty large. I've been to bigger towns/cities with less choices. They have the standard options with extras!! They have white rice and fried rice. They also have the fried chicken wings/drum sticks to chicken on a stick! They have the fruit bar to the dessert bar. Oooooh! Ice cream, too. The BONUS part is the sushi bar. There's someone making it to keep it stocked. They also have soup!! Basically, this is a buffet with decent food. Not fantastic gourmet food but good. It's not terrible. I see bad reviews on here. This is a really cheap place to have ALL YOU CAN EAT!! You cannot go eat anywhere else this cheap and be bottomless!! This place is probably going to have an off day here and there. No one is perfect. Oooooh! They also have hot pepper oil mix if you need to add that SPICE to your meal!! Minus one star for not wanting to seat us towards the front! Plenty of room in front. We had our elderly parents with us and mom is a heart patient and a cancer survivor!! We would have appreciated better seating. We were put in the farthest back corner. Quite the hike for the elderly.

    Receipt

    The food was not fresh, I did the buffet it was at 350 the charged me for a dinner it was 16.99 for just a dinner buffet and a water. I asked why the price was high and why I was charged a dinner and they said dinner started at 350 and I came in at 352. They don't post prices or what time they consider lunch or dinner. Expect to pay whatever they want to charge. Also I advice taking cash. Have had twice were they overcharged me and added extra to the bill after I left. Don't expect to get fresh hot food.

    Found in food, spit out blood from almost swallowing the metal piece.

    Last night I ordered a combination of pepper steak to go. When I got home, I took a bite and proceeded to choke on something; it was extremely painful. When I pulled it out I realized it was a piece of a foreign metal. I proceeded to eat another piece and quickly realized there was a thin piece of wood (a splinter of sorts?). Pictured below are the foreign particles I found in my food. Since it was too late to call as the establishment was closed, I waited til' the morning to go in person and show them, being that those foreign particles would have been extremely dangerous if swallowed. I spoke to the assistant manager who put me on the phone with the owner. After explaining my situation he proceeded to say that "maybe it came from the place where I was eating the food". I am only posting because the food is unsafe to eat and someone may not be as careful as I was while eating this, which could end up causing more harm. Be careful eating here.

    This place is delicious but I get so full easily off of it. I think it's one of the best in the area. I think it's very welcoming place.

    So so. Food need to be warm. The lady at the front is so rude on Saturday. The waitress is always asked for a tip.

    I really enjoyed this restaurant!…read more I saw that a friend had eaten there and have been looking for good Chinese food in Lee's Summit. This is good Chinese food. I dined in and enjoyed the very hot Crab Rangoon and amazing sweet n sour sauce. It was thick! Loved that it wasn't runny. I ordered the Mongolian Pork, extra spicy with pork fried rice. Both were super hot and delicious. Very impressive! Loved the sauce and fresh veggies. The restaurant is clean and well run. I would totally return.

    I tried China King in Lee's Summit after seeing it voted as one of the best Chinese spots in the…read morearea, but I honestly don't agree with the hype. Ordering was a bit frustrating--you have to do it through DoorDash even for pickup, and it doesn't let you customize much. I tried to add shrimp to my fried rice by leaving a note, but I had no way of knowing if they saw it. Turns out they did add it (with a $4.50 upcharge), but I didn't find that out until I got home and opened the container. It would've been nice to be notified or asked to confirm the change as it says it will and asked your preferred way to be contacted. As for the food--it was just okay. The fried rice was super yellow and didn't have much flavor. The sweet and sour chicken was fine; the breading was a little doughy for my taste, but nothing a few minutes in the air fryer couldn't fix. It's hard to mess up sweet and sour chicken, but nothing about it stood out. They estimated a 25-30 minute wait, but my food was ready 15 minutes early and they sent a text when it was done, which I appreciated. Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. If you're craving good Chinese food, I'd look elsewhere.
