Grand International Buffet

A few friends and I chose this place because of the crab legs honestly. We went there about an hour and a half before closing and majority of the food was empty. Through out the whole night we had to repeatedly ask for the food to be replenished. When I spoke with the manager he seemed reluctant to do so. What was even more frustrating was the fact that they began breaking down food stations before we were done eating and before it was closing time. Very rude indeed. The buffet is a very cheap price but you definitely get the service that you pay for.

We went on a Tuesday for lunch. It was busy, which is a good thing. Food was replenished often and there was even someone whiping down the tongs! Good food, food sushi. We didn’t get to sample it, but the beer and wine were cheap. A+buffet

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
I need to mention that I live in UT and the few Chinese eateries we have here are extremely Americanized. Also, I had been hiking in Arches the entire morning so I was very hungry when I got here.
Quick Bits: HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE IF YOU LIKE CHINESE/​SEAFOOD. It’s a Chinese American Buffet. So mostly Chinese food and seafood, but also small options of sushi, salad, fruit, dessert, pasta, wings and pizza.
Price: Definitely worth it!
My husband and I came here on a Saturday night around 8:00pm. It was $ 13.99 a person and they were open till 10:00pm. There were quite a few people here, which is always good and bad (only good in this case). We didn’t really know that it was mainly Chinese food, but it smelled so amazing when we walked in that I instantly decided to stay. We were seated very quickly and our waiter was so nice and prompt. The buffet area was not crowded at all. They offer Pepsi product, tea and a small menu of beer and wine. They have so much seafood it’s just amazing. I am trying very hard to stop myself from listing every single delicious item they have here. I’ll just name a few: Crab legs, oysters, clams, noodles, shumai, sticky rice, soft serve ice cream… I can’t wait to go back.
If you’re in town and can’t decide what to eat, then it’s a great choice.

We were very pleased with our meal at this restaurant. Many of the photos and reviews were from several years ago and we weren’t sure if they were accurate. They are
The food bins were kept fresh and the variety was very good. They have a wokery where you can select your own meats and vegetables with the sauce you want. I’m trying to be careful with salt so I skipped their sauces and just had mine cooked with water. The grill was cleaned after each persons food was prepared.
The wokery was my main meal but I tried a few of the other dishes and they were all good.
I’d definitely return.

Quick and easy Americanized Chinese food, ok pricing and inexpensive beer, which is nice. Mongolian grill was good and we will come back for sure. Sunday’s are busy!

Way above average Chinese buffet with a lot of American options beyond the typical pizza and chicken nuggets. Also, we arrived at 2:00 pm on a Tuesday afternoon and the food was still very fresh.

(Gave 4 stars based on comparing this to Golden Corral or other low priced buffet style place) Stopped here with family while traveling from CA to CO. Place was very busy and had LOTS of Asian food (Chinese, sushi, Mongolian grill etc) to chose from. They keep the buffet tidy and well stocked. My husband said the snow crab legs were pretty decent. They also had fresh oysters that people were eating up. My kids found plenty of choices. There was one area of the buffet with kids fare– Mac n cheese, pizza, chicken strips, fries $ mashed etc. so there’s really something for everyone. Basically this place has a very large selection of mediocre Asian food that’s freshly prepared or fried up. Pretty good salad bar too. The place is reasonably priced, busy but clean, and the staff attentive. Worth a visit.

I don’t eat here often, maybe 3 times a year. But I have eaten here since they did open, so I have a bit of experience in this restaurant. I usually eat at a buffet, this or another, when I just cannot decide what sounds good for a meal
From my experience they have a very good selection from which to choose. Their food has relatively good flavors. For a buffet the quality is above average compared to other similar locations in the area. After my meal here tonight I will return again.
Also, great for seniors, between 2pm and 4pm, the price is $ 7.99 including your drink.
My only reason for not giving a 5 star rating is that, comparing buffet to buffet, I have had better, but at a higher price. Also not in Grand Junction, You cannot compare a buffet to a regular restaurant, they’re different and intended to be. If you don’t understand this basic fact, you are wrong for grading them as being the same.
I have enjoyed my visits here since the start.

Pretty good buffet at a reasonable price. Has all the usual suspects, plus a Mongolian grill, sushi, some dim sum items, plus a better than usual so up section.

Eaten here a few times with a group, not my choice it has gone down hill since it first opened. Their sushi is ok very simple and boring lots of fatty food and the salad bar is a disappointment. Lots of deep fried food.

The sushi was okay that’s why I rated this place two stars instead of one. The buffet food was mostly fried and as other reviewers have stated it is overcooked. Most of the dishes contain too much oil and salt. I came to this buffet at 11:30 AM so I was expecting better fare but it might have been reheated as it tasted old.

This is a Chinese American buffet, with a sizeable assortment of American foods as well. It also has a sushi area and a Mongolian grill.
Food is typical of such buffets, slightly better. The dishes on the warming tables are well maintained, kept full, and rarely contain anything looking stale. The sushi table has a nice variety of vegetable, fish, and surimi-​style items. They have a small assortment of dim sum.
Prices are reasonable, staff is pleasant and responsive, facilities are well maintained.
This is a well above average «Chinese Buffet». We visit every time we are in Grand Junction.

Great place to indulge. Sushi is great, Mongolian Bbq was great, and the crab is always a crowd favorite.
You really cant go wrong with anything that is here.

It was a nice Chinese buffet, with a lot of options. Lots of seating. The Mongolian BBQ was the best part. A warning to anyone with food restrictions. The people in the front do NOT know the basics about the food. I asked 3 people who worked in the front if there was pork or chicken in the egg rolls and none knew or cared to find out. Suffice it to say, I did not eat the egg rolls.

Food is sub par, lacks flavor and is way over priced and over cooked.
Typical buffet joint.

My kids love this place and often pick it for their birthday dinner spot. The variety is great. My fav is the walnut shrimp. Service is always prompt.

The Grand International Buffet brings …
— Joy to my heart.
— Bliss to my taste buds.
— Fatness to my stomach.
Not a shabby Chinese buffet!

Not bad everyone. Not bad at all. Especially compared to the crap buffets available in Denver. Sure some of the dishes could be served a bit warmer, but I’ve definitely been to buffets where the food is downright cold.
Let me also state that this place could rate 4 stars for the chicken-​on-​a-​stick alone. that stuff is fun-f*ckin-tastic. Seriously the best CoaS I’ve had (and I’ve had a lot). The secret isn’t that surprising. They take fattier sections of dark meat and then deep fry it. Amazing.
The rest of the selection was pretty generic material. Nothing awful, but nothing really worthy of praise.
4 stars for the chicken on a stick!
Oh and lunch was $ 8. awesome.

OK, first off, this isn’t fine dining. It’s a buffet, so of course its not going to be authentic, but that’s not really why you go to a buffet.
They have a few pleasant surprises like the steamed red bean buns in the shape of roses, sauteed green beans, roast duck (at night) and their fresh fruits, like longyuan which translates to Dragon’s eyes.

My daughter insisted that we go here last night. She loves the green beans and the chocolate cream pie. Some items were OK, like the peel and eat shrimp, the salad, the chicken wings and beleive it or not the sushi was decent.
Most of the other dishes were pretty average buffet stuff, but the Salt and Pepper Crab, was beyond awful. A revolting, putrefied, disgusting, dried out stinking mass of crab corpse remains a seagull wouldn’t touch. Have I made my point?
The chocolate cream pie was delicious and the service was very good as usual. The green beans were pretty good too. It’s a three star place but how could they put that crab out there? I’m confounded.
