DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWS! Whoever keeps giving this place 5 stars needs to have their brain checked out. The place may of had a hayday but that ship has long since sailed. I was ready to leave as soon as I explored the options. Everything is sticky and dirty. You can easily tell some of the food was from yesterday or older. Totally unimpressed, yelp steered me wrong on this one. Take heed and let me save you the trouble. read more

The food was not good at all it was greasy and looked like it hadn't been touched in years, the waitress forgot my boyfriends drink didn't bring us any kind of silverware and never even came back to refill the drinks when needed and when we asked anything she just rolled her eyes or gave an ass statement the restaurant it's self just felt dirty and it wasn't anything good I definitely don't recommend. it use to be so good but now it's just looks like it needs a lot of work to get back to where it is read more

Only good buffet in Wburg and super friendly staff. If you are in Wburg and looking for Chinese food this is your place plus they have statues and things to take pictures. Inside and outside take you to the orient. Oh and Mongolian made right in front of you. read more

All sauces are watered down. Nothing has distinctive flavors. This is definitely not what I read in other reviews. One and done. read more

I ordered this to go and when I got back to my office I was upset that they put green peppers in when I specifically asked to not have any and then I double checked my receipt and saw that they charged me extra for them. I'm the picture you can see an entire mound of celery that I picked out. What little chicken and rice was left was dry and flavorless. I had to add copious amounts of sriracha and soy sauce just to make it edible. I will never go back here again. I didn't dine in so I don't have any insight to the ambience. read more

Let me be clear. This restaurant does not deserve five stars. Yet, I find myself emotionally unprepared to deliver fewer. I'm kinda annoying about going here literally every time I'm in Williamsburg. The journey for me began well over 20 years ago when I encountered the restaurant for the first time as a high school student visiting Williamsburg to check out W&M. Or perhaps it was as a Freshman as my parents came to town and took me out for some fine dining. Who knows. The point is - this is anything but fine dining. You might be alarmed as you pull into the dilapidated shopping center. As you drive past a few boarded up stores, you'll have an uneasy feeling that perhaps getting out of your car around here might be a bad idea. As you emerge from the car you'll notice the stray weeds endemic to abandoned municipalities coming up through the cracks in the cement. Again you wonder: "why did I come to this place?" But confident that my review will not steer you wrong, you trundle towards the large gold lions flanking the front door of this establishment. Walk in and you'll find COLOR! Red and gold are flung about on the tables and walls so you know you're getting Asian food of some sort. On one end of the restaurant as you walk in you'll see the large Mongolian grill - a flat surface on which they'll cook your food. To the left is the Chinese buffet. Beyond that, Vietnamese soup flanking a few Thai options... and then there's the dumpling station, dessert, and ice cream machine. Oh but wait... is that a sushi conveyor? Why yes it is! It's like a food tour of Asia in one restaurant. Wander to your table, grab a seat and a server will be over to take drink orders. Hot tea goes nicely on a cold day, your drink of choice otherwise. Are your arms sticking unpleasantly to the table? Is there nothing you can do with your napkin to get rid of that weird feel? There is a solution! Don't touch the table. Instead, get up and head over to grab some food. The important question: is any of it good, though? Yes! Some of it sure is. Here are a few tips and tricks to help ensure you emerge with joy in your heart and a nap in your near future. When to go: Watch out for weekdays. They're low traffic and your food quality may suffer for it. Mongolian BBQ Hit up the Mongolian table - it's delicious. Your food should be heaping above your bowl if you're doing it right - it cooks down a lot. When you get to the sauces, get as much solid garlic into your spoon as you can and then dump it on your bowl. If you're embarrassed, you're doing it right. Add another ladle full of garlic water. One or two ladles of ginger water. TWO ladles minimum of Mongolian sauce. After that it's up to you, but I'd highly recommend some lemon, a ladle of rice wine, and a full ladle of sesame oil. Personally I enjoy some chili oil ... they don't have that with the sauces but you can ask your server and they'll bring some to your table. As you get back your cooked food, find a set of rice makers behind you ... if you didn't go with a noodle base, you probably want some rice to soak up the delicious sauce. Chinese buffet I mean, it's a Chinese buffet. You know what to do. Take what you enjoy, leave what you don't. I was especially pleased with the bivalves when I went the other day. While you're waling down the trays look behind you: you might want to snag a bowl of hot & sour soup or egg drop soup as an appetizer. And don't forget the crunchy wonton strips too. Thai and Vietnamese options They're there somewhere. I feel like I've tried them a few times. The dumplings are pretty good - but be prepared for perhaps a thicker wrap than you're used to. If you use a spare bowl for your dumpling sauce it pairs well with some of that chili oil you asked your server for. Are the dumplings Thai or Vietnamese? Honestly I have no idea, but who can remember what's in these sections? Ice cream I feel like this has gotten better. It used to be that sort of ice-milk stuff, but more recently was delightfully creamy. I was pleasantly surprised. At the risk of misleading you though please expect ice-milk and then if it's good you too can be pleasantly surprised. Sushi conveyor If it takes you a while to get here and you're too full: good work! You've done the right thing. Choice is limited, fish is sparse, and it's mostly rice. Besides, how long has it been sitting on that conveyor anyway? Strongly recommend you stay clear of this unless you're a big fan of rice with some flavorings. read more

Honestly $10.99 for the lunch buffet isn't bad at all. It's basic cheap Asian food. It's not the greatest but it's not the worst, some of the food is kinda bland ngl. But if you're just trynna eat to get full or eat a ton of food then I'd recommend it. I also like that they have a Mongolian grill option. And the waiters were friendly. Dinner buffet is 15.99 btw read more

My husband and I go to Peking several times a year because we enjoy the variety of dishes offered at this Chinese buffet restaurant. our last visit gave us Molly, our server who was so welcoming and took really good care of us. we were seated at one of the many lacquered tables for two, this is a fairly large place, our drinks were brought promptly and dishes cleared as needed. plus she had a smile n her face and chatted briefly about what was available. There is delicious Mongolian bbq, don't miss that, and the sushi is also. very good. Tucked in between the bbq and the sushi are at least thirty differed hot trays holding different Chinese dishes and they are changed all the time as needed. There is also a soup station and huge containers of rice. Desserts are offered but Chinese restaurants are not known for great desserts and Peking is no exception. The price is right and because we are of a. certain age we get a bit of a discount. A win-win situation all around. read more

Rude staff, sent us away because they closed in 30 minutes. Need to adjust hours. We're not kind about it.

Best buffet around to me. The variety of different foods is unbelievable. I always travel here for my Chinese fix it is always worth it.

Food was typical Chinese buffet, but service was quick and reliable! Good selection and easy to get in and out of.

I agree completely with you the service was terrible food was old and cold they need help!

Very disappointed. Peking has been a family favorite for nearly twenty years, but we're reconsidering that now. The price has gone up, which wouldn't be a deal-breaker if the food and service were both still as good as they used to be, but alas, that is not the case. At our most recent visit, the server became upset and confrontational when I gave her a 12% tip (angrily pointing out the "suggested" 15 or 20%) for bringing water to the table and clearing a few dishes! (Remember, this is a buffet. By comparison, earlier that same day, I tipped a server 20% at a full-service restaurant where she handled every aspect of the meal for a party of 13!) I don't intend to return to Peking if they expect me to pay higher prices for mediocre food and a complimentary hassle from the wait staff on the side. No thanks. We'll just order from Golden China and eat at home. read more

Peking is an old school, inexpensive, simple, place that mostly the locals love and are glad it is what it is. The food is and variety is excellent with lovely sweet people who work there. It is old and worn and could be cleaner, but we love it. read more

Gross. Food was cold. Trays were empty. I don't even know why I thought this was a good idea to begin with

Here's the deal, you have to rate buffets on a different scale than other restaurants. It's a buffet, so you have huge variety and average quality. So, on the buffet scale, Peking gets an easy 4, maybe a 4.5. All of the food is good, but not great. Generally the ingredients are quality, the food is hot, and you can expect to be stuffed when you leave. They even have a sushi bar! The Mongolian grill is the shining star here. The staff is friendly, the lunch deal is decent, and the place is clean. But, don't forget this is a buffet. Expect some duds. The Japanese bar is just ok, the Thai bar at dinner is average. The salad bar is embarrassing, but, why get salad. Don't miss the honey chicken, green beans, and sushi. Pass on the seafood IMHO. Waddle on home after spending about 20$ with taxes and tip. Thank you America. read more

The food selection was great BUT the quantity was GONE or very low by 7:10pm They closed at 8 and didn't reload anything. they just said it is what it is. Take it or leave it. We were starving so we agreed. What we DID get to eat was good. Wish we would had tried more. Another personal observation; by 7:00 the place isn't is destroyed. The dishes on tables and food on the floor etc it was a Tuesday at 7:10 when we stopped in. Looked like s twister came through. I'm From NJ this was crazy to witness. Not sure if that's a normal occurrence. read more

Most Chinese buffets have the same things in common: variety of Asian cuisine, soups, an occasional Mongolian grill and sushi. Peking has one unique aspect that I haven't seen anywhere else in the HRVA - conveyer belt sushi! Watch the options pass right in front of you and take the one that looks tasty - don't wait, it might be gone before it can make another trip around. read more

Peking Restaurant - Conveyer belt sushi! - Buffets Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Would love to rate this place. But they close at 8PM and close their buffet at 7:30 PM. This is a tourist area. What gives? Note to owner: People tend to eat later when they are in summer vacation. read more

I would never go there again, food was cold and watery. I was very scared to get sick there bc the food wasn't heated . It doesn't taste like Chinese food. read more

C and I wanted to go have some Asian food and sushi without the rest of the family so when we got the chance to go without the kids tonight, we we gone faster than you can say "nigiri". The atmosphere is what I would consider typical of an Asian buffet, but maybe a bit more amplified. We were seated promptly and our server was right over to ask what we wanted to drink. I got the Tsingtao Fizz and I thought it was great mostly because I just needed some alcohol. It could have been stronger, but for $7, I wasn't disappointed. I liked the beer and peach combo and would order it again. I may just make it at home. One of the reasons we were intrigued by Peking was the sushi train: a conveyer belt with 1-2 pieces of sushi on a dome-topped plate. I was kind of hoping that the sushi train could deliver sushi directly into my mouth, but I don't think that technology has been cracked, yet. There were descriptions of the sushi next to the pieces so you knew what you were getting. I really enjoyed the offerings, but I do wish there was a little more variety. A girl can dream. I was happy to see so many seafood and vegetarian options on the buffet. I'm so often met with chicken, beef, and pork options and then like, 4 vegetarian things. But Peking stepped its game up. I only wish my stomach was bigger to accommodate everything. The spicy shrimp was my favorite, along with the crab Rangoon. I'm partial to the sweet crab Rangoon, and this was not that. It was fully loaded with crab and I think I have a new favorite. It was like a siren's song. It kept calling me back. C really enjoyed the seafood pancakes, among pretty much everything else he tried. He dipped his in the dumpling sauce and I'm kicking myself for not thinking of that earlier. That's why I married him. The desserts were pretty basic. They had cookies, cakes, and ice cream and I would like to see just a little more creativity here since their food selection was more varied than I'm used to. This was really the only part that disappointed me. Because I have a sweet tooth and I don't often get dessert, I wanted this to be better. They had a Mongolian grill here, as well, but we didn't try that. There was also bubble tea that I had my eye on, but ultimately decided against it because I didn't want to pay for two drinks. Ain't nobody got time for that. Honestly, everything here was solid and I would consider coming here again next time we're in town. TL;DR: Anything here with seafood was great. Try some of the sushi from the train and make sure to get something you haven't tried before. Or don't. I'm not your mom. read more

Friendly, variety of foods, clean, and delicious food Mongolian cooking was a new thing for our family but thoroughly enjoyed by all. Careful consideration with sushi and placing domes over finished food items read more

Came here in June, 2021 and feel like the restaurant has gone down hill. I imagine it's totally due to COVID. In the past, the restaurant was packed. But this visit there weren't many customers. As a result, they had closed lots of buffet stations and my wife felt that the food quality was not very good. I'm sure I'll come again and hopefully they'll be back to their old ways once the pandemic clears up. read more

Went for the Mongolian grill, was disappointed with how little options were available.

Great Chinese food, and service was attentive, my favorite was the sushi so good I recommend.

The server was wonderful, when I told her I'd never been there before she offered to take me around and show me all of the different buffets. The sushi I had was good although they made it a little difficult to get more than a couple of pieces at a time, so they were on little plates with a dome over top so you could only carry one or two. The Chinese food on the buffet was pretty good, the lo mein was delicious. The Mongolian barbecue was not good, They had the same sauces that I am used to, but apparently they taste different even though they have the same names. The cooked food smelled like wet socks, but just tasted like boiled food. However they seemed to have a pretty good variety of foods and the lunch price was very reasonable at $10.99, I would definitely go back. read more

Peking Restaurant - Hot and sour cockroach soup - Buffets Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

No.. don't go.. it's really tasteless food. We went at 5pm on Wednesday. Even the Mongolian grill sauces are flavorless. I'm not sure why people give good reviews to this place. I asked the sushi chef if I could have a serving of what he was freshly rolling and he basically scowled at me and said no. I asked how long the dishes that were on the conveyor had been sitting there for and he pretended not to hear me.. I was literally the only one standing there... It's $15.99.. you are better off ordering a la carte from a better place and you will be guaranteed a fresher and more appetizing meal. read more

This place is amazing. Masks enforced as you serve yourself. As is sanitizer and gloves as you touch serving utensils. Made me feel very safe. Seating is 6 feet apart and of course, mask and gloves come off once you are seated at your table. Delicious sushi, Japanese dishes and chinese dishes. Also an incredible Mongolian grill where you choose the dish and watch the chef prepare it. Can't wait to go again and I feel safe bringing my immunocompromised Mom!!!! read more

The food is no longer what it used to be and the standard is somewhat poor!!! It's unfortunate because we used to really enjoy going there. Either they don't care or management is lacking. I do hope they make some much necessary changes for the better soon. read more

I would say this is an Asian Fusian Buffet. Good selection of Chinese, Thai, Japanese, a couple Korean items & a traditional sushi conveyer belt. Going on a week night, it was busy than expected. Chinese foods were cold to barely luke warm. Japanese & Thai foods were more appropriate temp as they were in covered warmers. If the food was warm, I would have given it a 4 or 5. Please put Chinese donuts on the menu :) read more

MEH AT BEST - This place used to be very good, clean, and we would visit regularly. Over the years it had gone downhill with food quality declining. We decided to give it another shot, hoping for better, but it was even worse. The food was worse than we expected, some of it shockingly bad. Several items we would not even try as they just looked gross. The sushi was terrible, everyone in our group that tried it spit everything out. Many plates went back with a lot of food on them as it was just not edible. They would do so much better if they increased the quality, even at an increased price, as locals would return again. Food was terrible, place was not clean, and our second chance will be their last chance. Don't waste your time, go somewhere else. read more

I was looking for a buffet in the Williamsburg area in Yelp and this came up with good reviews so we decided to check it out. My 9 year old daughter and 5 year old son loved the lo mien noodles which is what they normally eat at a Chinese buffet. Most of the food I got was very good and my wife enjoyed the Mongolian hibachi she put together. She ate all of the Mongolian hibachi which is very unusual. I also liked some of the cooked sushi they had which was a very pleasant surprise. When in the Williamsburg area, we will definitely come back for more, my wife is already thinking of reasons to come back. The price was very reasonable for lunch and there was a soda or lemonade for everyone's taste. read more

I would come here all the time with my parents and grandparents as a kid. Its still so good to this day. I love chinese food

When you eat Asian food three times a week and go on vacation, you will take any port in a storm. I figured a buffet setting would give the rest of the family enough options and this place got a lot of local talking-up. While they have a Stir-Fry station, a sushi train, regular Chinese offerings and a bunch of desserts, there is nothing that is really "stand-out" here - which can be a plus or a minus. I was happy enough, the kids ate rice and noodles (and some pizza) and the husband grumbled about the quality of the meat at the stir-fry station. For the 4 of us, with drinks, it was $35, so that is a win in my book. read more
