    I ran a delivery route in Fernandina about 20 years ago and ate here about once a week. I remember it being pretty good and I was a fan of anything AYCE back then. During Covid they went to take out only and stayed that way until a couple of months ago. There was a big write up in the local news that they were finally opening to the public again and would resume the buffet. My buddy and I were on the island so I mentioned we should check it out. The food on the bar was all fresh, this was a little surprising as it was 2:30 in the afternoon. There were more people than I expected also, maybe 10 or 12 people. What I have begun to notice is that chinese buffets are not the big deal to me that they once were. I would rather have one dish that is really good as opposed to as much as I wanted that was just OK. They did have egg fu yung, not every buffet will take the chance to do this as it gets cold quickly. They limited how much was on the buffet and this kept it fresh. Pecan chicken was probably the best item. It looked like coconut shrimp but I saw it was not and tried it anyway. It was very good. Our drinks were not refilled regularly and we waited far to long for a bill, only to be told that they don't do that, just go to the counter and pay. They do have a full menu and the buffet is only open for lunch. This is a bit misleading and they might consider changing the name.

    We have had "take out" from here for several years and I liked it; the last two times though I had to question the meat. My chicken was like soft, spongy strips of something?!? The veggies and the sauce were tasty but thick. My guess would be the meat was coated in cornstarch. I asked on the way out and he said yes, meat seasoned then coated in cornstarch before frying. This then makes the sauce thick and clumpy, the meat soft and spongy. They were closed for Covid and then opened for take out only. About a month ago they started a lunch buffet and though they advertised "eat in", you get your order as a take out and they bring you a plate and silverware...and I was ok with that but not the coated meat. The staff was running around like crazy and friendly but the way they cook their meat changed.

    Super doughy wonton.

    See all

    Food was delicious and had a variety to choose from. Very clean restaurant. Dining alone was relaxing and was a quick stay. Quiet atmosphere
