I have been here a few times as it is near the hotel I stay at while in Nashville on business. The food is nowhere near mind blowing however it is all tasty and well done. For the $ this is a great spot for a meal. The spicy chicken, the pepper chicken, the mei fun noodles, and the house pork are standouts for me. read more

I came on Saturday and they were closed. what restaurant is closed on Saturdays? most asain restaurants are usually closed on Mondays which are considered "slow" days. I got there around 1120 and the food on the buffet was lukewarm. I like hot food. they don't give military discount. there was over a dozen airmen and soldiers and no military appreciation. my waiter, Jackie Chang, did a good job. I would return because it was walking distance from the hotel. read more

Stopped in for lunch on a Sunday and it was not bad. Not GREAT but not bad. The sushi here was very good, tasted fresh and not fishy. The hot food was alright, the soup (wonton and egg drop) were slightly lacking in flavor. One annoyance was that there were no condiments or napkins on the table. Things like soy sauce and salt and pepper are usually readily available and I noticed on the side of the restaurant we were seated did not have it. I do also wish they had a cold bar selection, things like salad, veggies and even cocktail shrimp. The place seemed clean, restroom included, I just think the building is older. Service here was nice, everyone was friendly and attentive. And the price isn't bad either. I don't think I would return as there are better buffets but this was a nice place to try. read more

The food is terrible, one star at best. It is a buffet so great service was not expected and is not given. The atmosphere is average at best, but again this is a buffet and what you would expect. read more

Let's start with a simple... Do not bother. I have had better frozen Chinese food. General Tso's chicken should be renamed General Tso's Mushy Bread. If there was chicken in it, I could not find it. Wonton soup was wonton mush. Chicken and broccoli was chicken mush. Flavorless nasty food. Dried rice (fried dry). Shoe leather pork. Staff could have cared less. I normally write decent reviews, even when bad. Total waste of $19. Fast food would have been tastier. Folks here must have very low standards for food because the place was surprisingly full. read more

I went for dinner. Food was typical for a buffet. Service...OK, food...OK. they were not serving sushi rolls, which is why I went there. I would choose another place to eat. read more

This buffet was literally right across from my hotel and I was hungry after a long day. I was quickly greeted and sat, and since it was 4pm the place was switching over to dinner menu. The building is located in a strip mall, along with Fox Den Pizza, and is appropriately decorated inside. I tried egg rolls, pepper chicken, beef and broccoli, and the General's Chicken. I don't recommend the latter - the batter was much too thick and the sauce cloyingly sweet. Average buffet, with a moderate selection of food. Best item was the egg rolls! read more

Not the best but it's hit and miss. I go there for the buffet takeout. Sometimes food is better seasoned than other times. I wish they had more variety than the same old stuff. Very basic and the stir fry's have a lot of cooking oil in it. Sauces could be better seasoned as well. I've had better Chinese elsewhere. read more

I visited for the first time for dinner. I'm not a connoisseur of Chinese buffets but this one seems to be a winner in my book. They had a respectable sushi bar with new rolls being made continuously. I liked all of the food I tried. Some of it didn't appeal but that's part of going to a buffet. All the staple dishes and soups seemed to be covered. Dessert was great too with ice cream and cake and cookies. The place was clean and staff were friendly. TVs were present but uniquely placed up high with volume comfortably low. Will be going again! read more

I'm gonna set the stage for this review: I decided I needed to smash a large amount of food after a long day of travel, I didn't have a car, and this place was right across from my hotel. Cue the Chinese buffet! It's got everything you want, and it's similar to every other Chinese buffet in every other city: deep fried goodness in 10 different dishes, solid egg rolls, good soup, and fast refills on drinks. The only downside, and it's the only thing I can say negative: their General Tao's is pretty bad. The breading is off, and it's much too sweet. I took one piece because it just didn't look right, and that was enough for me. Thank goodness their other food was so good. If you're traveling through Nashville and need to post up at one of the airport hotels, this place is worth a stop. read more

The sweet & sour chicken was a marvelous, along with the rice. The ambiance was beautiful and there was perfect lighting. Would go again when I can. read more

I was greated immediately at the door, seated and my drink order taken right away! very fast, very friendly service. The buffet was very tasty and always being refilled. My waitress came by constantly to check on me, clear my dishes and refill by drink. Service was exceptional and the taste of the food and great service makes this a buffet you need to visit. Prices are excellent also! read more

This is a very good buffet, the owners are very nice and remember me and my family. It's very calm inside and beautiful paintings. If you come into the buffet near closing time (about an hour and a half) the food will be kinda cold and they won't make new food after that. Other than that, it is a very good buffet and cheap. read more

I advise going early at lunch before 1pm or later at dinner. The food is fresher during these times.

Very good food today. Great selection of food, just not in the desserts (which I don't need anyway). Came here with my sister Donna who's here for a visit. We wanted a Chinese Buffet and it didn't disappoint. read more

The worst Pad Thai and Sweet & Spicy Chicken I've ever had, with no close second. I love to support locally run businesses that serve the Chinese and Thai food I grew up with, but this place is shameful. read more

Average Chinese buffet, with all the typical food items you'd expect. Service is friendly and the restaurant was clean.

I was in town for a few weeks a few years back on a business trip. My family visited me one week while down there and we stopped in here for lunch as we wanted some Chinese food. Mot was not good at all. We had bad service and the food made us all sick. Was my worst experience with food on the donelson and Nashville area during my 6 week stay. read more

Me and my boyfriend have been coming here for about 3 years now and this place never disappoints! Owner and staff are super friendly too!

We arrived back in Nashville late enough that we didn't want to go home and cook. So, we looked for an Asian restaurant close by and found ourselves at the New Dragon Phoenix. It's a nice clean place and the people who work here are friendly, industrious and, it appears, darned good cooks. We ordered mixed vegetables and bean curd, broccoli and garlic sauce, white steamed rice and fried rice. This was really good Chinese food. Served, as it was, by happy, friendly people in a very pleasant place. It was a good find and we expect to return on a regular basis. read more

12$ for dinner buffet is good. Service is nice. Will come again. Enjoy their shrimp and Sweet corn. read more

So, the food's not great. But the lunch buffet is super affordable (I think it was around $8 for all you can eat), and the service is great. So, no, the food doesn't really impress. But if you're craving a huge Chinese food buffet and want to stuff your plate, this is a good option in the Donelson area. read more

Great place to eat. Food always delicious. Gracious hosts. Try to get there by noon, because they switch to dinner between 3:00pm and 4:00pm and buffet bar gets slim pickings at that time on busy days. read more

Great food! Chicken teriyaki on a stick was super good. Fried fish and the chicken for sweet and sour chicken was on point! Love the steamed dumplings and the sauce. The donuts and the little brownies were a great way to end a meal! read more

I ordered from here several times because they are the only place I found in the Nashville are that delivers sushi. Not sure what the negative reviews are about. The online ordering system is really smooth and easy. The prices are great. The sushi was excellent. I know this is just a buffet but the sushi was just as good as the really expensive places downtown Nashville if not better honestly. I've moved now so I won't be able to order from them anymore. Sad face! The delivery guys were always so nice too. They always gave me my extra sauces. Highly recommend for delivery. read more

I work right beside this restaurant, but rarely eat there. The food is pretty bland, standard fare. My major issue with the shop is that their lunch price DOUBLED overnight, which they didn't happen to share until I went to pay. So the price jumps while the quality slowly goes down. If you're going to eat here, do it now before it becomes altogether indigestible. read more

Better than any other buffet. The food is always delicious and the staff are always nice. Better than Asihi Hibachi and Buffet imo

Really solid Chinese food. In over ten years of patronage it's always a good experience.

Was in a pinch when arriving to Nashville late and decided we wanted something quick and Easy. The gentleman over the phone taking my order was very friendly and informative when asked about the food. I have a shellfish allergy and he made sure to let me know nothing was cooked with oyster sauce. Despite all the reviews, I'm happy to say I'm pleasantly surprised with the food. We ordered an hour before closing, and the food tasted fresh and flavorful. The egg drop soup was delicious as well as the beef and broccoli. I would order from here again. read more

I've been wanting to try them for awhile but for some reason or another I never got around to trying them. Last night I got to craving general tso, so I decided that I'd get some from somewhere I've never been to before. I ordered off there website using the beyond menu app. I got general tso mild spicy, with lo mein instead of rice for an additional cost, and cheese wontons. It is a lot of food for the price. The general tso had really good flavor, although I should have gotten it spicier but got it mild since I haven't been feeling 100 percent the last couple days. The mild is not spicy at all so if you can't stand heat you will be able to tolerate it. The lo mein is well seasoned and a good portion. The cheese wontons are the second best I've ever had, I love that I could actually see the green onion in it, it came with sweet and sour dipping sauce. The dipping sauce is a good sweet and sour. The food was ready promptly, I will definitely eat here again. read more

Called for a take. Great service the meal was ready in the 10min she quoted. Had the Mongolian beef, which was a good size portion for two or two meals. read more

I have been to this place twice and both times were pretty good. The service is awesome. The waitress was running all over the place to make sure that everyone had refills. The sushi is bad. Stay away from it. The tacos are like philly cheesepork and may be the weirdest taste you ever experience. Not bad......Not good........Different. They have some of the best wings in Nashville. This is a great place to visit if you are in the area. read more

The good: delivery driver was fast and courteous, including delivering most of what was missed the first time. The bad: they did not include most of the specifics I asked for on the order on Yelp. Asked for 10 soy sauces, Spoon and Fork, and napkins. Got for soy sauces and napkins. Should I even need to ask for a spoon and fork? Also ask for extra sauce on my dumplings. Did not receive them. Called them, they told me they would send them out right away, which made me feel good. However.... The ugly: about 15 minutes later, now that the food was completely cold, I received spoon fork and more soy sauce. No sauce for the dumplings. I also verified with GrubHub who fulfilled the order via Yelp that the specifics of my requests were on the original order. So cold dinner, with only a little bit of sauce for my dumplings. Prepaid the tip, which was okay since the delivery driver did his job well. But the extra $2 delivery fee was not worth this trouble for cold food. read more

I went to this restaurant for lunch with a friend of mine and had the Chinese lunch buffet. $8.50. The food was average for a buffet but not quite hot enough for my taste. They had a better dessert and ice cream section than most Chinese buffets do. However, 24 hours later I did come down with a stomachache and chills and spend the rest of the next day in bed. I'm not sure if it was from the lunch, but I didn't eat much the next day. The woman who refilled my water several times was very friendly and had a great smile. My friend whom I went with to lunch enjoyed it more than I did and did not get sick the next day. I don't think I'll be going back. read more

Staff has always been super fast and friendly. It's definitely not a huge buffet, but the food is always delicious.

I've eaten here a few times during lunch. As far as buffets go, the selection is what you would expect on your average Chinese buffet. The food is fresh and it stays busy. The quality of the food is above average for the Chinese buffets in the area. Not extraordinary, but not bland and dry either. It's a good lunch place when you have a group of people and you're trying to find a place that everyone would enjoy. Based solely on food, I would give this place 3 stars... a little above average. However, the deciding factor for the 4th star was the service. The staff here is amazing. They are friendly, courteous and go out of their way to be attentive to your needs. Our drinks never get even close to being empty. read more

Guys. Don't come here for dinner. Lunch seems fresher. But tonight at 6pm, 7 of the 8 items on my plate were not even warm. Listen to me. This isn't an exaggeration. Cold. As in. Cold. Not kinda warm. Cold. I've been here for 20 minutes and those items still haven't been replaced. I complained nicely and they said "sorry" and walked away. Cold. Cold. read more

Great food selection. Taste is very expected and familiar. Love the fried rice. Reasonably priced. A little bIt if everything including sushi. Recommended! read more

Although the Buffet was rather sparse, the food was surprisingly good. I guess I can tru that up to the fact that they were closing in an hour. Still, they should've had a lot more food available. I rarely find wonton soup as tasty as it was here. The next time around, I'll try to come here during the day when the food is more plentiful read more
