I have been here quite a few times and its always okay but I always feel kind of grossed out when when I eat here like I’m making a mistake. The last time I went here it was awful and I could barely eat any of it because it tasted so bad. Its a great deal for the amount of food you can eat though and its close to my house so I will probably go back but if you want good chinese food I would recommend going elsewhere.

We just moved to the area and were told this place was pretty good, so we went the other day and tried for ourselves. Lots of selection, large room for seating and only $ 14+tip for two lunch buffets & drinks. The egg drop was fresh and delicious, the chicken fried rice was food. Many items are naturally GF, just ask about soy sauce if your worried what kind they use. Lots of colorful and fresh items, we will definitely be back.

A nice selection at the buffet. Several non breaded dishes are available. It is typical American versions of Chinese dishes. Cantonese is spoken in the kitchen. The price was reasonable for lunch. It’s very close to the highway for easy off and on access. It’s tucked into a shopping center.

Like many other people have commented the price is right at just about $ 7.00. Definitely one of the lowest cost buffets in the area. The selection is not overly huge. The food is ok. I thought the best thing was the pepper chicken.

Tucked away in the middle of this plaza is a fast food Chinese restaurant with a buffet option. Now, while eating here, we saw a good amount of customers come in to pick up to-go orders, so their menu options must be pretty good. We opted to try their buffet, mainly because I always enjoy buffets and really the price is fantastic. The buffet food items are pretty limited, they offer the standard buffet items, no seafood obviously. Almost all of the food were old and have been sitting out for a while, we could tell from the looks and taste of it. They did bring out a few fresh items during our visit and those items tasted good. The wontons, crab rangoons, and egg drop soup were very good; these items stood out to me. I feel like we went during a bad time, but the poor food quality on most of the items could not be ignored. Now, again, it wasn’t all bad, and I’m sure during their busy times the food is usually fresh. You pay first at the counter when you enter and the staff member there is friendly.

You cannot beat the price of this buffet — I think lunch is under $ 6 and dinner is under $ 8 — they are mainly limited to chicken items with some beef/pork. The food isn’t anything super amazing, but if you are in the mood for cheap Chinese buffet and saucy chicken dishes, this is your place. No frills, inexpensive, hit the spot Chinese food.

Okay, so up front disclosure — this is a great place to go for a cheap, delicious lunch. If you’re looking for more than that from this restaurant, you’re gonna have a bad time. But that said, I really am a fan — my husband and I can both eat here at lunch for approximately $ 14+tip, which includes drinks. The service is adequate(you usually don’t see much of them after you pay for your lunch but I’m not someone who needs to be checked in with so this is more than fine.) The décor is extremely meh. The food is very good — cooked well(as long as you come during peak hours when the food is fresh) and lots of things to choose from. You really can’t beat Hong Kong for a reasonably priced Chinese buffet lunch!

As indicated in my tip, the lunch buffet is $ 6.95; drink and tax included. There’s a nice assortment of about 50 items, including plenty of entrees and appetizers. The food itself is rather oily, however; scooping some food onto my plate revealed this. Value wise, the price is pretty fair for the quality of the food but it is not gourmet or five star worthy. You get your own drinks here and I’ve never had them clear dirty plates. No problem… no service… no tip!

Went in for lunch buffet. $ 6.50 was very reasonable. Some food was good. General Tso chicken was acceptable. The fried rice tasted soapy and mushy. Pop machines did not work well across the board.

It is what it is, a strip mall Chinese food place. The food was cheap and ready quickly. I got carry out and got a large serving for the price.

I came here to pick up a quick dinner last night after a visit to Campbell’s across the parking lot. No complaints at all — this is your regular ol’ neighborhood Chinese take-out place. I saw that they had a buffet area as well, and was pretty busy inside. I stood around for a few minutes as the guys in the back were preparing my dinner fresh. I was impressed by this. Food was piping hot and freshly made to order. Would gladly return again!

Ummm… seriously, this place was not five stars worthy. I dont know what the other reviewer was eating but I definitely did not have good chinese food here. Good chinese food is what I compare to Hong Kong or San Francisco. I’ve even had some good Chinese food in Chicago. But this was not good chinese food. First off, they didnt have flat rice noodles, otherwise known as «fun». How do you not have«chow fun» and call yourself a chinese restaurant? Apparently they have a lunch buffet here because thats what everyone was eating when we came to pick up our food. I ordered the beef egg noodles. The beef was sliced skinny and was dry. The noodles were okay. It didnt give me a stomach ache after eating so thats why it gets two starts instead of one. I wont be back here again!

Review stars based on what this place is, a neighborhood Chinese place. This is one of my favorite inexpensive Chinese places. They have food representing several provences, but predoninently it is Cantonese. That syle is a bit more subtle that most of the others. The flavors are not real spicy hot, but certainly are there. It is an exceptional value, in my opinion. The food is made to order on a wok that you can see if you look behind the cashier. There is no wait staff, you either order at the counter or get the buffet. The quantities are surprisingly large. They will gladly do any special requests, if they have the ingredients, since it is all made to order. The diner buffet is just a tiny bit more expensive than the lunch. It is another exceptional value in just about anyone’s opinion. One thing that I like is that they usually have a limited supply of each item on the buffet. When it runs out, they make more. That way things are fresher than they are in some places. I like that. Nice people, great prices, good selection, no atmosphere. Go for the food, not the decorations.
