Food is nasty. Over cooked and seems like it's been sitting out for days. Getting charged before you eat shows they got you to eat their trash so you don't leave. Service is awful. Smells nasty inside. Dirty place. Makes me wonder what the kitchen looks like. Do not recommend read more

The food gave me salmonella poisoning and the utensils that they use for the food is not safe they have it in a bowl of water and there was other food inside the dirty bowl. My plate still had food residue on the bottom and just very dirty and unclean. Do not recommend read more

The staff was wonderful, but the food was awful. Given how poor the food quality was, dashing without dining appeared to be a reasonable choice. This is an all-you-can-eat buffet, but the utensils for picking up food were not clean, items lacked labels, and, by appearance and taste, the food might have been left out all day. This is a place I'd recommend steering clear of if you want a decent meal. Restaurant staff, please pay attention to the food you serve! You can't leave food out in the open for long periods during the day and expect it to maintain quality. Routinely replace items and maintain general cleanliness; your customers will thank you! read more

Food was horrible, limited options, lady at the front desk was rude, and the server cleared our table while we were getting food. Don't recommend. read more

TRASH!!!!! This place Opens for dinner at 3:45pm so I went at 4pm And all the food looked so dry and stale as if it sat there since lunch. Sushi was room temperature but tasted ok. The crawfish were spoiled!!!! When I told them they still left it on the buffet. Salad bar wasn't refilled, I asked the cook three times and he just said "yes yes 5 minutes.... just nasty....everything was gross!!! The only good thing was the friendly waitstaff I give them 10/10 read more

Good for appearance. Good service and ambiance. I would have given a 7 star review if one of the ladies hadn't been rude for no reason. Other read more

Worst restaurant I've ever been to the food was extremely old and most of the trays are empty. do not come here waste of money

1st time here and the food is horrible why does everything look like and taste like it just been sitting out ??? You will see steam coming up from the food but everything was cold I shouldn't have to place my hand up in the air by it to see if each pot, plate or whatever is hot nobody wants cold seafood!!! The fried stuff was over cooked turn the other way don't waste your money needs a lot of improvements with the food read more

Too high. Had to ask for fresh food on the buffett. They open your food when you get take out & charge you for extra soy & mustard after you spent $30 on take out. Never coming back. Going back down the street to the original chinese buffet read more

Pretty good selection and flavor. We like to go to different buffets and this one I would recommend. I would have given a 5 star review if one of the ladies hadn't been rude for no reason. Other than that everyone else was kind. read more

This is not the same food that I have eaten in the past! There was absolutely no flavor in the egg Foo young, the brown sauce tasted like water and the shrimp were tough and rubberize.The sweet and sour shrimp was the worst nightmare of the meal.They were cooked so long that they appeared to be small stones , not at all appealing to anyone in my family. I am upset that I spent over one hundred dollars for food that I could not eat!!!I am posting this review in several places so it can be known to all that the The One.is no longer a suitable restaurant! read more

Is a very good buffet and I believe it was worth going there while I was in town. Price was not to bad either.

Go elsewhere! Went on Sunday at noon - prime lunch time. After being told one amount, the card receipt was for a different amount - there was a 3% surcharge they didn't bother mentioning. Most buffet dishes were warm - not hot and certainly not worth the $18 per person (with waters). On our second trip to the buffet (yeah, it wasn't good but we paid $18 each) we came back to our table that was cleared of our utensils and waters - guess they expected only 1 trip to the buffet. read more

This is not "the one".... We visited expecting a mediocre three star Chinese Buffett- and it did not meet expectations. You pay upon entering the restaurant- approximately $34 lunch for two adults. I'm convinced that you pay up-front because if you ate first, you would refuse to pay. Everything was cold. We visited at 12;15 during rush hour. Rice was cold, noodles cold, all dishes cold. No flavor. The macaroni and cheese visually looked like they forgot to drain it. The food did not look good, nor did it taste good. read more

This place really turned itself around the last rime I was there. Everything was fresh and clean. The staff wore masks and gloves.

I ordered through Grub hub for food here. Food came 30 minutes late, soggy and cold. Contacted Grubhub and got a $7 credit. Haha won't do this again. They blamed it on the restaurant which is usually fresh and amazing. Don't know who to believe? Do know that I will spend 60.00 on a Friday night somewhere else from now on... read more

Delivery to our hotel was fast and the food was hot and delicious! Minimal delivery fee.

We went today because we saw on their website that on Saturdays they have all you can eat crab legs. THEY DO NOT! I was so upset! When I asked the woman about it at the register she told they haven't had them since Covid started. Whoever is in charge of your website seresily needs to update it!! My husband, Mom, and myself were VERY disappointed!!!! read more

If your from out of town this place is not for you. Service horrible, this place is disgusting. Nothing was fresh. 5 couples walked in right after us and these servers do not care about serving you. This food is dead, it smells, and taste horrendous. As I'm looking at the food waiting for something fresh to appear the waiter clearly knows I'm waiting for fresh food and says eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Are you serious? Mocking me as well. Thank God for yelp cause I was about to blow up on them but instead said I'm just post a review. I wish I could've told the couples that just walked inn to leave. Hopefully they read this review. I didn't take photos and should've but you have my word, Do Not Go Here!!!!! read more

I have been here a handful of times and it was good except today. Food was cold, old and dry. I went to get a plate done at the hibachi grill asked for garlic sauce. I took a bite and no flavor no season at all. I told our server my feed back and she let what i assume was the owner know and he was upset and was yelling about my comment saying that i need to let them know if i want salt in my food. Which i have made plates there before and there was no issue until today. I dont think Ill be back With my family again. read more

It's a buffet! That being said you have to know what your getting in to! I don't like the fact that the don't speak good English! Sushi was ok. Mostly fake crab and tuna! Nothing super special.. everything I had was just ok nothing sparked my taste buds! Water was nasty! But family of 5 ate for 36 bucks that's really good read more

I placed a n order through door dash. They didn't send the sauce for fried dumplings. They disregarded special instructions and sent the wrong portion. Also I almost chocked on a bone left in the breaded chicken in my orange chicken read more

The One Buffet - The One Buffet Texarkana Tx - Chinese Near Me - Texarkana, Texas

For a small town restaurant, it's pretty good. Lots of options of cooked and raw. My husband and I were passing by on our way to Arkansas and after seeing all the raving reviews we decided to check it out. Price - surprisingly cheap for what they offer (crab legs, raw oysters, sushi) and the variety Raws - all their rolls is a surplus of imitation crab and rice. Did not look appealing at all. My husband tried the sushi and said it was mediocre. He also braved the raw oysters. There's quite a bit there and looked fresh. Cooked - I tried the general tso's chicken and orange chicken and it's like biting into a rock. Dry, not crunchy at all and they both tasted the same. There is actually quite a bit of veggie options and it all tasted very good. They had a variety of fried food too that was good. Dumplings was quite tasty especially with the soy sauce provided. Their stir-fry noodles was good too. Overall, I'd give a four stars if it wasn't that it made me run for the bathroom almost immediately afterwards. And that's eating strictly cooked food! I'd go again if I pass by as it was quite tasty for a good price and only one bathroom trip (vs multiple). read more

My wife and I travel through Texarkana several times a year and have eaten at many restaurants in the area. We liked for a Chinese restaurant in the past and tried the one that was suggested to us by 3 different people. It was barely so so. We sometimes eat at a buffet but not often as my wife doesn't always like them. I read the one review and drive past the place and it was packed, a very good sign for the late hour at a buffet. I asked and was told The One had been open about 4 months. The interior looked as thought the previous owners had run a steak house out of the place but the new owners did a good job adding to the fixtures and decor turning into an Asian themed restaurant. The wait staff was very nice and attentive. The hot food looked fresh. Not like it had been sitting for hours in the steam tables. They also had Sushi which I generally avoid at a Chinese Buffet. The Sushi was wonderful! The fish was fresh and it all was well prepared. I loved it. My wife and I loved the Crab Rangoons. She said they were the best she had ever had. I gave this place 5 stars as it was clean, the food was fresh and it was good. We will definitely be back! You should give it a try. read more

The One Buffet - I thought this was funny. - Chinese Near Me - Texarkana, Texas

Ok the one buffet is ok the selection is no better than Golden Palace down the street I have eaten here a few times it's just good not great for the prices it's about the same as golden I give it's a 7 out of ten for cleanliness and a 7 out of 10 for food quality read more

The egg rolls and shrimp with broccoli were good. The fried rice was undercooked but the flavor of the sauces were good.

They have you pay as soon as you want in. We sat down then went to the buffet looked like WW3 was having all the food looked old and needed to be tossed. Not a buffet I will ever go back too. On the way it they have a sign saying health inspection is available upon request. I'm sure they got their inspection prior to COVID-19. Their food truly wouldn't pass inspection. If I was a health inspector I would of made them pull all of them hot plates and start over. I wish I would have token a picture of the buffet. Spilled food everywhere the one buffet was just dirty. Three out of the five people I went with was feeling bad the next day. Today. read more

Now they have Cajun seafood 4 favorite Cajun lemon pepper garlic sauce or the whole sha-bangi(mix all three) read more

OH WOW! That's all my friend could say. And I agree. This place has had more ups and downs than a devout Catholic at Mass, but this visit was completely new. There must be a new Chinese sheriff here. Outstanding. read more

Your basic average Chinese buffet - nothing more or less. Would go back. Remodeling some of the booths - a good thing. A little high but friendly service read more

Ordered through Door Dash. The "Dasher" texted me to say they were taking forever. No worries, rainy night. Ordered Kung Pao chicken, potstickers and egg rolls. Egg rolls fine. Potstickers were barely cooked (reheated from frozen) and gelatinous. Tasted ok. Kung Pao had carrots, zucchini (?) and then the normal celery, green peppers, dried peppers. Ordered medium heat, it was pretty hot. Chicken was fried and some tasted like seafood (tastes like chicken!) and some tasted like it could have had whiskers. read more

Best Chinese buffet I enjoy there amazing food and sushi me and my wife travel from Naples to eat here

Definitely one of the best Asian restaurants in Texarkana. Buffet and takeout menu provide plenty of options to satisfy any taste.

This is THE best chinese restaurant I've been to.The service is great,the food is even better and I love the set up inside the place. On the out side its pretty blan but on the inside WOW it is amazing I can not get over how AMAZING it looks. Definitely consider dining here for a all you can eat read more

Best Chinese buffet in town. I come here often and it's always very good. Normally very fresh and tasty food. Price is a tad bit high but what isn't these days. read more

The best again buffet in Texarkana by far..at lunch on a Tuesday for 3 adults and a child it was $36.00. The buffet is massive with salad..all kinds of dessert items..dip your own ice cream..all soup station and 3 long hot bars with everything 7 would want. And then there is sushi. It is prepared right in front of u and very fresh. Also they are constantly changing out the hot bars and not just adding more on top of old food. The only complaint I have is that I don't know sushi and have never tried it and they don't have anyone directing u in the way to go or anything. But we will be back..One other. Complaint. .The servers do not get individual tips. We had the best server but when we tipped him big he had to put it in a community tip jar!!.. read more

FOOD POISONING! Avoid this restaurant. They made my whole family sick within minutes of eating there. If you want severe diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach pain then this place is for you. My neighbor went there on a separate occasion and also got sick. I should have taken his word. read more

Was concerned after reading reviews here but glad we stopped by for a quick dinner. Clams were cleaned well and tasty, crawfish was very fresh with a few exceptions, sushi was made fresh too. I won't relate it to anything authentic you would find in LA NYC or Houston but for the price the food quality and selection absolutely worth every penny spent. read more

Clean You can drink if thats your thing Food selection was awesome. Tasted really good read more
