Cafe Ko Restaurant

My favorite east-​side buffet. Great egg drop soup, lo mein, steak with mushrooms… Love that I can get unadulterated cheese puffs here, no added (and unlabeled) shellfish in these puffs!

My favorite Chinese buffet in the area. People are always friendly and food is terrific. Love the chicken with sweet and sour sauce and the lo mein, egg rolls, fried rice and general tso’s chicken. Salad bar is fresh and well stocked also. Tea is always fresh. I go at least once a month. Probably going back this week for a business lunch with a couple of coworkers. Great place.

I will be coming here when I visit Houston from now on. Could be a «chore» of sorts getting a big rig with a trailer in here so I recommend dropping your trailer first if you can. The seafood soup was just about as good as I have ever had. It had just as much meat as it did broth and while it seemed a little spicy at first it was delicious to the last spoonful. Some places say, «wonton soup» and there’ll be one wonton with a bucket of broth. Not this place-​spot on. Now for some of the main dishes. The chicken shrimp medley was made perfectly withe the shrimp & chicken seared and then added to the mixture of veggies an sauce that seems to be a lost art for most places. It adds a certain flavor that most places miss in preparation. If I could change one thing it would be that they try using a little less salt. Let me add that if I need to. The service was just as good as I would want and Alice was great, my server. Very nice and even got me a «to go» soda.

It’s ok it has a variety. I live in Dana Point California and can’t get buffets close by. So when I went to visit a week ago I had to have it. It would be good if the food was warmer. But other than that it was ok.

Decent buffet with fair pricing. Smaller than some others around here with just the key essentials you expect from a buffet. Friendly staff and good lunch crowd

I received no wait staff to assist me, or refill my tea. Customer service was awful! Plus the food was less then warm. I am not going back. Waitress was rude and assuming. Food was not hot. Waste of time.

I ventured into this Chinese buffet place in the afternoon while conducting business on the east side of town. There’s nothing that stands out. It’s all pretty ordinary. I tried several items from the buffet. Everything was either average or below average, except that the egg rolls tasted different from any I’ve ever tried. The price as about ten bucks, which is typical for this kind of eatery. It was all very forgettable. I left unimpressed.

Its a childhood favorite. They usually have fresh food. Its best when its busy, fresh food gets replenished quicker. I like that boiled shrimp is a part of the selection. Never had any problems.
