I'm giving them 5 stars because the staff is so sweet! I've been coming here for a long time. Keep those Sea Beans coming! Janet

The food was alright. Service was there, but so quick to make us leave, pretty racist. We speak English too but spoke to us in Spanish( they tried) even though we spoke to them in English, so their communication needs a little bit of help. The vibe of the place is weird, pretty silent, and a lot of stares from the workers. Only thing I didn't appreciate was how much of tip she wanted. We payed $115.04 for 6, 2 kids and 4 adults. After we payed she wanted more money as a tip, we didn't want to so we didn't. She got mad and tried pushing the kids out the way. I will say honestly, never coming back. read more

I had a family lunch with my sisters and spouses at The Pavilion on Saturday. The food was good and the restaurant was nice but our waitress was rude, abrupt, and tried to hurry us out at all times. There was plenty of seating there and there was no need to rush us out the door. Eating out should be a leisurely activity that you don't hurry through. They have a lot to learn. read more

It's a nice restaurant but I never been to a restaurant that charged me 31.63 and it's lunch and lots of buffet charge you 20.00 dollars and the food was warm the only thing that was hot was the wonton soup it's a very nice buffet I come again but I like to have my food hot not burning hot read more

Terrible food also terrible service they just brought drinks I paid $83 for 3 people and then when I didn't give a tip she begged for it and got mad I didn't do 15 dollars read more

Rude people. No communication skills. No English. Most important for the them is to pay. They need to learn how to run a business. don't recommend. read more

Came here as a last minute dinner option and was delighted with what it was. I haven't been to a Chinese buffet in a while and this one didn't really disappoint. It had all of my favorites and then some. I believe there's really something for everyone. A few things were a bit bland and soggy, but most of the food was hot and fresh. The workers were nice and service was as good as expected for a buffet. This place was and felt clean and taken care of. It was also priced as expected. (About $15 for adults and about $13 for children) All in all, I'll most likely be back because I really did enjoy it. read more

The food was not that good and it was warm at best. They charged my debit card 3 times and then tried to tell me that they needed to wait to see what their merchant services showed. The manager finally agreed that they did charge the card 3 times and offered to give us a refund on two of the charges. NEVER AGAIN! read more

I was unsure about this place but my kids wanted a Chinese buffet so we gave it a try. It is much larger than I thought it would be. Good selection and everything was stocked and hot around 7pm. Only issue was the sushi was picked over and looked old. Ice cream station was pretty sad, no cones or toppings. The place looks older and needs some updates but had lots of seating and a nice staff. Prices were average. Not the nicest Chinese buffet we have been to but not the worst either. May visit again if we were in the area. read more

Pavilion Buffet - It has ice cream with mango Jello - Buffets Near Me - Fayetteville, Arkansas

Super mediocre. I mean check it out. It's not horrible, but idk if I'd go back. Way better than Golden Dragon, not near as good as Hunan Manor. If you want middle of the road Chinese food, It's up your alley. They weren't overly nice. But the service want bad either. It's not decorated badly but it definitely encapsulates the look of mediocre Chinese buffet. read more

Came here for the first time today for lunch. I was hopeful for a good Chinese buffet, since the others in the area are horrible at best. First impression when I walked in was the huge selection. Thought this going to be great. Everything I put on my plate was COLD. Not lukewarm or room temperature. It was all COLD. I was about to ask for a microwave, but decided to get my check and go. I told one of the servers the food was cold and she acted surprised. Give me a break, I arrived 10 minutes after they opened and everything was already cold read more

The customer service was horrible we had just gotten seated like 5 minutes and they brought the check and the waitress kept coming to look if we had already paid making us uncomfortable and we were still eating and made us annoyed then when we went to pay at front she was staring mad at us then came back to the table and we left the tip under the tray of the check and she didn't see the tip so she demanded tip and we said nothing to her so she said fuck you, so snatch that shit back. never coming back again wish you could put a zero star read more

I've been here several times, not a good place the food is cold, they yelled at me because I didn't want to tip bc all they do is bring you drinks, so I said to my partner if she's going to yell at me I'm never coming back here, like I get it if they bring you your food and stuff but just drinks no thanks and he laughed about it, will not be coming back here!! read more

Large restaurant with huge variety of food for a low price. Lots of options for vegetarians. Several desserts. A lot of wastage by some customers who took more food than they can consume - restaurant should consider weighing uneaten food and charging these customers. read more

You're eating for what you're paying. There's no much variety but it's alright. Fried shrimps 10/10! read more

Pavilion Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Fayetteville, Arkansas

I'm not a buffet fan so let's start there. To me this is just mediocre Chinese food. Not special nothing terrible. Typical fare from fake sushi to soft serve ice cream. It will fill you up and sustain you for a bit. Service is pretty good though. read more

Today I arrived at 11 when they opened and I'd have to say most of it was abysmal. Nothing (except the soup) was hot. One of the things even tasted bad. And on top of that they forgot to get me my drink. The food made my tummy queasy but there were no lasting effects. read more

This was the worst buffet I ever had 1/20/24. Every food I tried was cold or not warm. The best food was the fruit . I brought my family here and held my tung and asked the opinion of each person and they all thought the same thing but didn't say anything . The seafood tasted like chlorine and the food was not hot . Despite that the service was great . But the food being that bad for the cost is not acceptable . read more

I don't understand the bad reviews. We went there yesterday for mother day and the place was packed. I fully expected a less than stellar experience (it is after all a buffet) but I was fortunately wrong, They consistently brought out fresh food, everything I had was pipping hot and they had much variety of food. Everything was clean and our waitress was super sweet and attentive. I wish I didn't live so far from it. read more

Come here! Great buffet with sushi, Pepper Shrimp, and stuff for kids too. They even have an ice cream machine self serve. Highly recommend this place read more

In NW Arkansas we only have a few choices for Chinese food. This place hardly disappoints. After being greeted and brought to your table, they take your drink order and then the fun begins. Granted, once in awhile I have encountered a couple of dishes on the lukewarm side, but it is a buffet afterall. The options are all of the usual items, but it is always nice to check out the sushi selection. (If you like it, of course) They are constantly making it fresh with different items. I definitely recommend this location conveniently located next to Lowes. Have a Yelptastic Evening! read more

Pavilion Buffet - My family having fun - Buffets Near Me - Fayetteville, Arkansas

$28 dollars for one to go box today I found out it is $8 a pounds it used to be $15 to take out not going back

The food was good, but the waitress demanded a tip from everyone and she was pointing out if someone didn't tip enough. Probably will not come back due to that. She was also very rude about that. read more

Food was decent, some of it was stale, rice was hard in some spots, chicken was fresh though, for $13 for lunch it was worth the price.

The food was warm and some of it tasted cold like it was just microwaved then put in the fridge for 5 minutes before being pulled and served to people.The waitress also begged me for a tip which was extremely rude since I didnt have much I could give since I needed gas I will never go back after this experience since begging for a tip is so extremely rude read more

Pretty dang good. Everything on the buffet was fresh and they had frog legs too that were great. Couldn't beat the price.

I absolutely love this place! Price is great and there are so many seafood. I love the salt and pepper shrimp and the crab. The sushi isn't bad either! And the staff is very friendly! read more

Pavilion Buffet - Seafood - Buffets Near Me - Fayetteville, Arkansas

i think the food was good even thought it bothered my stomach a bit. The Service was amazing, the woman stood there and made sure if anyone needed anything she was there. The Ambiance of the place wasn't 10/10 but it was up there, very big and the chandeliers were a nice touch, making the place look cleaner and a bit fancier, read more

Pues no se puedo exigir mucho pero la mesera o la que cobra son muy hostigadoras están sobre de uno para que dejes la propina que ellos exigen read more

Service was terrible. They rang us up for multiple more people than we're even at the table. I ended up having to pay for myself and I didn't have a single bite to eat. They were very rude about it. read more

It's all about timing here. If you come in closer to closing time food is over cooked been sitting there for a while, or they are out of things and not going to replace them. However if you come early afternoon the food is fresh hot and pretty good. read more

Great! Great selection! Fresh food! Customer service was great!! This place is the place you want to go for your buffet fix! Very nice people- and fresh food! read more

Y'all leaving poor reviews need to tell me where you're getting better Chinese-American buffet than here. A trip to Pavilion is like going to the candy store as an adult. For the cheap price of entry, I don't expect great service or even excellent food, but I often find both. I can eat plates of just the stir-fry mushrooms...or the kimchi, if I could handle the heat. read more

Skip this place. Showed up 2 hours before closing. Not a hot dish on the buffet. Very little food to choose from. Many empty containers. I thought it would get better with 3 large parties being seated after us, but only 2 trays of fresh food were brought out. Sushi was pulled an hour prior to closing and they began pulling food half an hour before close. Too many other options in this town to waste time here. read more

This the worst buffet experience I've ever had. All of the food was old and under temperature. Most of the food didn't taste good. The fortune cookie was even a little stale. The service was fair but definitely nothing special. All of the "used" plates were piled in a cleaning station for everyone to see as they enter to be seated and walk to get more food. Again, ALL of the food was very old and some of it was over cooked leaving the food inedible. This was a Saturday evening! I will not be returning to this business. This business is a shame to the culture and community. read more

Eaten here enough to say the food has always been great. The buffet has a tremendous assortment. Food has always been fresh and hot. Service is about what you come to find at most buffets. But they have always been courteous and pleasant. read more

Seriously the worst Chinese Buffett I have ever been to. Food was cold, old and tasted bad. Manager offered only half price even though we did not eat any of it. Will never go back. read more

It's a decent Chinese based restaurant. It's not horrible nor is it great. If you are on the south side of Fayetteville then it's not a bad place to go. I think the food is decent and the service is fine to me. They leave you alone to let you eat but will keep your drink full and they pick up the plates off the table at a pretty good time span. I see a lot of bad reviews but I think they are a little harsh. I haven't had a bad experience here yet. Like I said not great but not bad either. Just one mans opinion. read more

I have dined here numerous times & thought I would give it one more try. The rest rooms are filthy, which is a good indication what to expect from the dining experience! The Sushi Bar always has flies on the meat and vegetables! The hot food trays have old food sticking on the bottom as new food is put on top. Waitress are not very friendly until the bill is brought to your table... They will strike up a superficial conversation in hope of a tip... This will be my last visit to Pavillion as there are others in the same price range that are better overall. read more
