I have seen both negative and positive reviews. So I have decided to see which is more accurate. In the last seven days I have attended two weekday lunches and one Sunday dinner to gather my own opinion. I have decided to rate five stars and let me explain why; thus far food has been delicious(as far as buffet food goes) and the price is beyond reasonable. Two out of the three times our check arrived in the middle of the first plate serving however I don’t believe they are trying to be rude. I think they do this for your convenience. I’m also giving a high rating because of how spacious and well decorated the inside is. Everything is clean and well lit. I LOVE the koi pond. Its phenomenal. And the servers have been friendly so far. As for the tipping part; if my table is clean, they provide great service, drinks are never empty, plenty of soy/salt/pepper on table, booths/chairs cleaned off why not tip them well? If they work hard for us to eat at a cheap price with a wide variety of food items to choose from, filling drinks and cleaning tables, why not give them something extra? Food service is hard. My check was for $ 16.28, I tipped $ 5.72. There have been other place’s where I have left nothing. I hope you’ll give this place a try.

This buffet has really gone downhill. I ate there today and the food was only semi-warm and a lot of it was over cooked. I got what i thought was a deviled egg. Nope, it was just a hard boiled egg cut in half. The food was just lacking overall. To lower my review even further, they have signs posted all over the place asking you to eat all of the food on your plate. Seriously? It makes the place feel very unwelcoming; like your mother is scolding you. When the waitress brought us out check, we didn’t pay right away because we weren’t done yet. I still wanted to check out the deserts. About 10 seconds after she gave us the check, she came right back and said«you pay here». Then she stood over top of us until we paid. If i could rate this place lower than 1, i would.

Excellent Chinese Buffet. I had several different items and they were all fresh and delicious. The«sushi» looked like fake crab or salmon, so I decided I would forego that particular gastronomic treat(what, you don’t know I am sarcastic?). Any way, the several was quick and friendly, the table and dining area was clean and tidy.

Yet another restaurant that my daughter and I put on the must have lunch at list. I’m glad we did and happy to report that the restaurant is as good if not better than in the past. I always check out all the steam and cold tables before I start loading my plate. I know I’m only good for one to one and a half plates so i’m selective on what to load up on. For this particular lunch I found huge deep fried prawns, General Tso’s chicken, mongolian beef, dry cooked string beans, a couple of crab rangoon, and a spring roll. Plate number two — I just had to go back and get a few more prawns and then I headed to the fruit and dessert tables. So I completed my plate with several wedges of oranges, a slice of watermelon, an almond cookie, yummy square of fluffy white cake, and a cream puff. The total for two of us for lunch, drinks and tip came to $ 15. I’ll be back and at prices like that I don’t feel compelled to overenduldge to get my moneys worth.

I always thought of this place as an okay place to grab a quick bite, but today I had a really bad experience. My friend and I went in for lunch. The waitress filled our water once, then came back with our bill maybe 10 minutes later. We scrambled for our wallets and I felt rushed. When she comes back with the receipts, she stood over us while we signed it, and when I left no tip, she said, «You no tip?» I couldn’t believe it. It was buffet and we didn’t ask for anything else, drink refills or anything, and she had the nerve to ask me about a tip. I was so rushed and annoyed I forgot my credit card. I called and asked to speak to the manager about 2 minutes later to try to get my credit card back, and a young boy answered. We had communication problems and he said he’d ask the waitress about my card, but he never took my phone number down. It’s easy enough to cancel a credit card and get a new one, but I won’t be going back.

I have never had a problem with this restaurant. Their food is always fresh, and the service is prompt and friendly. The Chinese buffet I’ve been to.

This is a decent Chinese Buffet. It is hard to consider a Chinese Buffet as anything high cuisine, but for what it is, it’s pretty good. The food is plentiful, and the service is passable. Like most buffet cuisine the food isn’t exactly gourmet, but they do have passable versions of all the normal Chinese-American dishes that people come for, and some other related Asian dishes(they have cheap sushi, and a «Mongolian» barbecue as well). If you’re in a hurry and passing through town, or on your lunch break it’s a good way to spend about $ 8 and leave quite full.

Three hungry travelers rushed into the New China Buffet on Easter night. After a quick looksie at the buffet and the price(8 dollars a person) they enthusiastically signed on to join forces with wayside Chinese food. And the first plate was a belly-filling glory, piled with lo mein, egg rolls, crab ragoon, and all the other delicious staples we’ve come to love and respect about American Chinese restaurants. And then… well, although we did eat two or three more platefuls, we realized that the food was pretty much devoid of flavor. There was some decent chicken, and the fried dumplings and egg rolls were good, but everything else was kind of greasy and bland. We were so grateful to shove heaving spoonfuls of hot food in our mouths, though, for so little cash, that I was willing to give it three stars and call it a day. 3 things brought down this rating: 1. The fried rice. I was really looking forward to heaping fried rice onto my second plate of food, but when I sat down with this, I discovered that it wasn’t fried rice at all. It can only be described as… Southwest style rice? It just needed some beans thrown in there. And it was dry. 2. The waitress dumped the check on our table halfway through our second plates of food and would not refill our water again after she had done it once. The place was nearly empty but we got the unwelcoming feeling that we were just not wanted. 3. I had a dream about my dinner companions de-veining their shrimp and eating frog legs that was a realistic flashback of Easter dinner.
