The food was hot & fresh, arriving right at the scheduled time. It tasted delicious too. We've had an issue finding the kind of Crab Rangoon we like since moving the area 3 years ago, so here's more details on theirs: it is generously filled, slightly sweet, we didn't notice any green onion in it and maybe a hint of crab flavor/pieces but not much. It's fried nicely and not overly crispy. The only downside of the restaurant was paying the additional fee for Lo Mein but the Sesame Chicken lunch had Fried Rice instead. Taste was great, just not what we ordered.

How did I let someone talk me into this place?…read more First problem... The wait. No real organization coming in the door; so often waiting just to be seated, even if there are lots of open tables. Shouldn't matter that much for a buffet. Second - Signs are up all over the place telling workers how to perform their work. Including cleaning items. All of these SHOULD be just standard work that anyone working in a buffet can/would do. Just because you wrote it in a foreign language doesn't mean it is decor... it proves that your staff doesn't clean unless you repeatedly tell them. Third - Place was NOT clean. Bathrooms hadn't been touched. The table we sat at was sticky. Food was on the floor (I don't blame staff for this... this is a clientele issue!) But still had to clean things off the bottom of my shoe before getting back in the car. Four - It all tasted the same. Didn't matter if it was pork, chicken, shrimp, etc... just wasn't good food. Five - This is way too expensive for what you receive/tolerate here. It is apparent from the other reviews that people get wowed by the size of the place and the size of the buffet. It is a neat setup. But as consumers, we need to demand better food, because THAT is why you are there. Sushi was as cheaply made as it could be, and no one was manning the M-BBQ counter, so that wasn't an option on the day we were there.

I really enjoy this restaurant on numerous levels…read more We have been there many times and the food, price, cleanliness, white tablecloths, and excellent service never disappoint. On top of all of that, the noise level of this restaurant is relaxing and pleasant! Lately I have been ordering the Paw Woon Sen noodle dish with pork, cabbage, bamboo shoots and bell pepper. It is so delicious! Indeed, it has to be my all time favorite Thai dish! The price last night for this fabulous dish was $17.00 and it is a very large portion. One word of warning, Thai food can be spicy. I like a moderate amount of spice. When ordering my food at the Thai Kitchen I ask for the "mild" level of spice and has been about right for my tastes. Folks more sensitive to spice may want to discuss the level of spice with the waitress. Go try this small, cozy, hidden gem in Independence! There are many reasons for their wonderful ratings.
