    Stopped by for lunch today. Been multiple times before. Consistent for a buffet. About $21 for lunch. Always plenty of parking and seating. Good selection of appetizers, fruit, rolls and entrees. Pretty friendly staff.

    I have been coming here for almost 15 years! I still refer to it as Lucky Buffet. In fact, I used to go to the owner's old buffet location across the street. I have vivid memories going there with family and he'd have big TVs on raffle. Food hasn't changed much since then from what I remember. For what it's worth, I do like it and it's good for what it is locally. Especially their honey mayo shrimp and broccoli beef. The beef is always so tender and the broccoli is super green, fresh and has a nice crisp! I have also ordered catering a few times in the past year and their portions are HUGE! You definitely get what you pay for, which is also really reasonable. (See attached catering menu) Their location also has big rooms for parties, too. I am not sure of cost to rent though. Prior to a year ago, I haven't been here in a few years and I was glad to see they updated their facility. It is much cleaner. Their service is also good. They are always coming around to clear your plates to try to keep the area tidy. Parking is also really easy as they have a big lot.

    Dinner menu-only items - Salmon, mayo mussels, crawfish, cod, shrimp, and crab (not in photo; right of shrimp)

    Came in for monday dinner. Total cost was a bit over 27 dollars. This buffet is just okay. The food is warm, the sushi got an upgrade compared to 10 years ago, but I still miss the old version of stuffed crab, stuffed mushrooms, the dinner menu was missing the green beans you would see at most buffets, crab casserole, french chicken, and cheesy spinach. The selection is acceptable. The quality of the food overall is about average and is not anything to write home about. It is what it is, a buffet monopoly in Everett. The only other buffet is many miles away and not nearly as good.

    Excited to discover an affordable buffet North of Seattle with plenty of food! I'm thrilled to reunite with friends after almost a year. Looking forward to good chat and diverse cuisine, especially seafood. The people working are nice and easy to talk to! Can't wait to introduce some friends to a variety of delicious dishes!

Our dining experience began with cold appetizers, including a mixed black fungus dish with a satisfying crunch and tangy vinegar flavor, alongside pickled lotus root vegetables with a garlicky and subtly spicy taste. For our main courses, we opted for the Deep Fried Fish Szechuan Style, which was filled with cod fish, had a lighter batter coating, and a pleasing crunch, but beware of its savory and fiery flavor, which intensifies after several bites. We also selected the Szechuan Hometown Tofu, which offered our taste buds a savory flavor, enhanced by chili sauce, a crunchy exterior, and a soft, silky interior. On the side, we ordered a bowl of steamed purple rice and white rice. This exceptional culinary experience combines the perfect balance of crunchiness, chili spice, garlicky freshness, and sweetness, rich flavors of Szechuan cuisine. I highly recommend this restaurant for an authentic Szechuan-style dining experience.

It is a huge portion but it is completely devoid of any flavor whatsoever. Usually onions add something but that did not help. I don't know how you can mess up noodles but no one in my family would eat them and there is one person in my family that will manage to eat almost anything and they refused. The sweet and sour chicken was drowning in sauce even though we asked more than once for the sauce to be on the side. We liked the bell peppers and onions in the sauce. The chicken pieces were of decent size. I did not care for the sauce. The white rice was well made and fluffy. The rice was probably the best part of the dish. About an hour later, we ended up throwing up the food. A complete waste of $31 dollars (which is pricey for what was supposed to be a lunch special). Also, vegetable chow mein and chicken chow mein is the same price which we found out after we had paid. Lunch is pictured and mention to include soup BUT you only get soup if you dine in. The place looked clean the the people seemed friendly. We may give them one more chance bc of the friendly service.

Unfortunately, after my experience this past Tuesday, I'm not sure I want to continue giving them my business. I always tip--usually above the suggested percentage or by selecting the preset option. This time, however, I had cash on me and planned to give the driver a cash tip. There has never been a time where I did not tip. When I placed my order, the confirmation stated that delivery would take about 45 minutes. Instead, the order arrived 40 minutes earlier than quoted--well before I was home. I would have been there within the promised timeframe, but because it was so early, my daughter accepted the order. I also always select "contactless--leave at door." The delivery driver, who has brought food to us before, knocked very hard on the door and then asked my daughter if we planned to tip. That was completely uncalled for. My daughter had no idea that I had ordered food, let alone that I intended to tip in cash. When she told the driver I wasn't home, the driver actually responded, "Oh, because you didn't tip," and then left. I was shocked. Had the order arrived at the quoted time, I would have been home to give the tip as planned. Instead, the driver ignored delivery instructions and embarrassed my daughter by demanding a tip. If management is reading this, I strongly urge you to remind your staff to follow delivery instructions and not pressure or question customers about tips--especially when the order is set to be contactless. A cash tip was ready, had it not been delivered well before the delivery time. For anyone planning to order and tip in cash: beware.

My sister and I viewed the menu online and called in an order on a Friday night, hoping that it would not be a long wait on such a popular night.

I honestly cannot rember eating such fabulous Chinese food! EVERYTHING was SO good from pot stickers and pork slices w/ musyard to garlic fried chicken, almond chicken, sweet n sour prawns, the best vegetable platter I've ever had ( snow peas, mushrooms, water chestnuts, and baby corns, if im remembering correctly.

    I can't believe it has been two years since my one and only visit to T Dumplings House…read more Tonight, I was feeling a little sluggish, and a little under the weather so I was in the mood for some comfort food, but nothing heavy. I ordered the cabbage and pork potstickers, the Dandan noodles, a beef pancake roll, the veggie, egg and shrimp potstickers, and finally the lamb with onion potstickers and one coca-cola (yes, all of this was for me, don't judge). First, the beef pancake roll was AMAZING!!! It's a super simple item, the pancake was crispy and soft, wrapped around some lettuce and flavourful beef. This is a must order. The potstickers were all fantastic. Warm, pillowy pockets full of veggies and protein. The cabbage and pork were my favourites. Finally, the Dandan noodles. These noodles were covered with beef and sauce that had just a whisper of peanut butter. So simple but yummy! This place serves up some delicious food!

It is their specialty and they do it well, from the skin to the fillings. In my opinion, they are much better than dough zone. However, their pot stickers, steamed, and boiled ones, are all the same type, so be aware not to order too many dumplings, mix in some noodle or pancakes dishes to avoid one note. My only complaint to the menu is they don't offer much wide veggie dishes. The only thing is the cucumber salad, which is only a ok dish.
