Me and a friend decided to do some take out Chinese cause it's way too freakin hot to do any real cooking at her house. She lives near this Panda South Chinese Restaurant, so this is where we went. Service was fast and efficient in placing our order, we actually went inside instead of a phone order, just so there won't be any miscommunications with what we wanted. We got some pot stickers, beef chow fun, and cause Yelper Howie S. mentioned they had Tomato Beef Hong Kong noodles, we got that. They packed the crispy noodles separate, so they didn't get soggy with the toppings. All the food was still very hot when we got to her house and unpacked it all. The pot stickers lost some temp, but no biggie. The noodles of the chow fun were tender and not chewy and there was plenty of beef. The tomato beef over crispy noodles was very good with the sauce having the proper amount of vinegar for that little zing and not too sweet. I'd get food from here again.

Wish I could give no stars. Yesterday, I ordered hot and sour soup along with other entrées for pickup. I ate most of the food last night and saved the hot and sour soup for lunch today. Unfortunately, when I opened the soup, I discovered an unwelcome "extra protein"--a roach. Understandably, I was horrified. I immediately contacted the restaurant to inform them. While they offered a refund/ replacement, I declined. I explained the severity of the issue and urged them to address their food safety and cleanliness standards urgently. This experience was deeply unsettling, and I now regret eating the rest of the food. Taking laxatives for peace of mind shouldn't have to be part of dining out. I hope the restaurant takes this as a wake-up call to prioritize their customers' health and well-being.

I just dropped my work rental SUV back at the rental place and a friend of mine was gonna give me a…read moreride back to my car. To pay him back I asked him where he wanted to go for lunch, he said that Chinese buffet. OK, I know what place he's talkin about, the Grand Buffet, On Hilltop Drive just off the 5 off of East Cypress exit. East to find and lots of parking. Looks like it's been over 2 years since I was here. The price for lunch now is $17 bucks plus tax and some tip. We get there and the place looks about the same as the last time I was here. They have these big Koi fish that seem to be an attraction near the front. We get seated and drink orders taken. We got here close to opening at 11 am. so all the food was nice and fresh and hot. Don't get here half hour before closing and expect there to be all hot fresh food, it ain't gonna happen. Some of the things I love here are those ribs! Yeah, Chinese can make so damn good ribs! Not Texas style though. Chicken wings are another of my fave here. My friend went wild and ate a ton of food, all kinds of noodles, ribs and wings. I pretty much skipped the carbs and filled up with shrimp, wings and ribs. They even have french fries if you want! Service is the usual just clear the plates and fill the drinks with minimal conversation. I gotta remember this place is here!

An Absolute Gem!…read more This Buffet Shattered All My Expectations! Let me be perfectly honest: I walked into this place armed with a healthy dose of skepticism. Having browsed some of the less-than-stellar reviews, my expectations were cautiously low. But from the moment I stepped up to the first steaming tray, it was immediately clear that this wasn't your average, run-of-the-mill buffet. By the way, it was lunch and was 11:30 AM. Any preconceived notions I had were completely obliterated by the sheer quality and care evident in every single dish. The first thing you notice is the freshness--every ingredient tasted vibrant and recently prepared, with nothing sitting under a heat lamp for hours. The food wasn't just warm; it was gloriously, satisfyingly hot. The highlights? There were almost too many to count. · The Chicken Wings: Forget any soggy, buffet-wing trauma you may have. These were a masterclass in texture--impossibly crispy on the outside, while remaining supremely juicy and tender within. · The Baked Salmon: This was a showstopper. Each flaky, moist fillet was infused with a rich, buttery essence and a deep umami flavor that melted on the tongue. It was a dish worthy of a dedicated seafood restaurant. · The Fried Egg Rolls: A perfect crunch gave way to a savory, well-seasoned filling. No greasy aftertaste, just pure, crispy delight. · The Egg Drop Soup: So often an afterthought, here it was a star. A beautifully balanced broth that was both comforting and sophisticated. · The Sautéed Mushrooms: Absolutely divine. They were garlicky, savory, and cooked to a tender perfection that had me going back for a second (and third!) helping. In a world where buffets can be a gamble, this establishment is a sure bet. They have clearly made a commitment to quality, flavor, and freshness that is frankly exceptional. Do not let the mixed reviews deter you. My experience was nothing short of phenomenal, and I will undoubtedly be returning soon. This place isn't just a hit; it's a destination. The real test will be when I return to see if consistency holds true. Update: I went back a few days later because I was hungry and I was curious. Again, it did not disappoint. Food was just as good as it was a few days earlier my review stays the same. Great job grand buffet!
