I remember coming here as a child and it would always be full. I came by today because I was starving and a buffet is always good when your ready to eat a horse. The décor is like most Chinese buffets colorful and flowery. They were slow only like 2 – 3 people there which we did not mind. They don’t have a whole big wide range of food but they have just enough. So don’t expect it to be like the hibachi grill down the street. I had so many things! They had salmon, spicy chicken with a sauce and green peppers(yum!) the fried chicken on sticks, fries, beef, noodles, macaroni and cheese, friend banana!(Yumm again) and lots more sea food. Their fountain drink was a little watery. I got a Sprite but they were probably running low on the syrup in the back. Me and my boyfriend left full and satisfied. I still had enough room for dessert so I got bananas with this strawberry sauce I loved it so much! They also had fresh fruit but that banana dessert caught my eye. I am glad this location has not moved after so many years. It’s a nice location with a good variety to eat. Customer service was also very good. Finally I know Hanover park is a majority of Hispanic population and I loved how they had Salsa Valentina at every table lol!

I went there today and I have to say that I was very upset. The food was not that great but the bus boy was nice. Probably won’t go there again.

I really wish I can give this place 0 stars. It is awful. Might as well save yourself from getting sick and just go to hibbachi.

Came here last Friday for my mother in law’s birthday. It was her pick so we all really had no choice but to go. All she really wanted was the shrimp. Which I thought was just ok. I’ve been to hood spots and this one was definitely up there. The quality of the food was pretty bad. The selection was limited and not appealing at all. If it wasn’t for my MIL I would not have even sat down here. Sticky tables, bathrooms were bad too, it was just bad. From what I’ve heard was that the food and service use to be good until a new owner took over. Save yourself and go down the strip mall to the hibiach buffet that’s across the way from Walmart.

never coming back to this place, food was not good, some food looks old and over cooked. besides at the end of trying a salad that was my only good choice here I saw cockroaches walking on the salad counter!!! if that was in the front I don’t want to know how their kitchen looks. I let the manager know and the only thing she said was ok. what a customer service!!!

Do not waste your money. Anything is better than this. Very disappointed. Food greasy and little taste. Place somewhat dirty. They charge you before you eat… probably because too many people would leave without paying.

Cold food, a good cleaning really needed and a husband who has spent the evening in the bathroom means NEVER again!

Let me tell you how terrible this place is. The owner who was also the cashier, was the worst ever. This is the place you never want to come back again. we were told to pay including tip before sit down. I mean nobody pays tips before eating but I still paid the tips even we wanted to pay tips after we finished. However, the owner was really rude and said F words to all of us. Obviously no one would eat here anymore at that moment. I requested a refund. She actually did but she still wanted to steal my tips which I wrote on the receipt because the refund amount was the bill only. I said I need to cross out the tips on the original receipt. She realized that I knew her dirty idea and suddenly behaved out of control and kept saying F words toward us. We left after I finished the receipt. Be careful if you decide to eat here because she can ruin your whole day.

This is not Chinese food, not even American style Chinese food. It was watery Mexican food. Gross, gross, gross, spare yourself a stomach ache and don’t go there.

This is a mediocre Chinese buffet located in a strip mall. On the upside, there is plenty of parking. You pay before you sit down. Everything is self serve. This is no table service of any kind. At first glance there is a seemingly good selection of food. Upon closer inspection it becomes clear that there is not really anything very interesting. Most of the items are edible, but I have seen a lot better at other buffets. The dessert selection is pretty sad, but I guess Chinese are not known for their desserts. Overall, I have been to this place a few times and I never walk away hungry, but it is never a place I really seek out.

Well, the coke from the soda fountain was pretty good, and the oranges didn’t suck… but everything else did.

Well, this is my first ever Unilocal review, and I had to come on here to encourage you all NOT to try this place. I believe it was the worst meal I have ever eaten. The egg rolls and the sweet and sour sauce were both good, but beyond that, nothing was. There were only about 4 Chinese meals on the buffet, and only beef with broccoli had any veggies in it, the rest, like General Tao’s Chicken, were very heavily laden with sauce, very soggy, and just generally unappetizing. They had a myriad of other selections on the menu, but most looked like they were simply purchased at Sam’s club and fried(french fries), sliced(cake desserts), scooped(pudding), or just set out(cookies). There was no ice in the soda machine, no syrup in the Mr. Pibb, 3 of the 4 ice cream dispensers were out of order, and the entire dining room was a very dirty mess. The people working the buffet would walk back to a window into the kitchen and yell in for what they needed more of, which was very annoying. I urge you all to find somewhere else to eat Chinese.

Overall it’s about what you’d expect from a strip mall Chinese buffet. There was a decent selection of food, mostly Chinese in origin but with some American stuff thrown in here or there(chicken strips, fries, etc.) for those not all that interested in Asian cuisine who are still dragged there. I am hesitant to say this place is a deal — for dinner, we spent $ 21 for two of us, and a lot of the food appeared to have been sitting out long enough to have been thoroughly picked over. The place had several signs that warned against wasting food — a reasonable sentiment, but I was somewhat hesitant to leave anything on my plate as a result, even if something ended up being less than appealing. Overall, it was alright. We went at 7pm on a Tuesday, so I may be willing to head back there at a more peak time to see if the food is more appealing.

Just went tonight. The place is filthy and the bathrooms disgusting. I gotta admit the food wasn’t too bad — fresh oranges and the sweet and sour chicken, pepper chicken, orange chicken, Beijing chicken and pork egg rolls were pretty good. Desserts were all bad including lumpy ice cream. I won’t be back. Did I mention having to pass by the garbage cans heaped with garbage to get to the food? gross.
