China Buffet

The food here is average. My kids love this place and that’s generally why we go here. They live the dessert selection. The service is very good. The quality of the meats could improve vastly. It just seems the ingredients are average to below average.

Was driving by and decided to stop. It was relatively clean, food was pretty good, and service was friendly. Had better, but ive also had worse! Not spectacular, but no real complaints either.

One of my favorite Chinese buffets. Good food, good variety. About the same as you’d expect from any other Americanized Chinese restaurant, but the food is a lot fresher than that of what I’ve seen at other Chinese restaurants. However, be sure you tip– they give you lots of dirty looks if you don’t!

Good Chinese buffet food. Nothing special but everything you expect from a good olé american Chinese buffet.

The other day, I was desperate and felt adventurous, so I wandered into China Buffet– a place I’d been to a couple of times years ago. I got a good reminder of why I don’t patronize this place.
There is nothing on the menu even remotely close to actual Chinese food, and the American versions of Chinese are done poorly.
The food is flavorless, seriously lacking in seasoning. Vegetables are nearly non-​existent. Several dishes on the menu specify Chinese vegetables but there are none of those actually offered, as was confirmed by the workers I spoke to. Everything is very saucy. There is no such thing as spicy.
I also suspect that cleanliness is lacking. For one thing I am extremely disgusted by the fact that take out orders seem to come from the buffet. I ordered spring rolls and it looked like they just pulled them off the buffet, where who knows what has touched them. Gross!
In the past, I have ordered vegetarian dishes only to find pieces of animal in them. It appears that the workers simply scooped the food off the buffet and picked out the meat chunks– it is unlikely they made it fresh to order.
All in all, this is a place to avoid. I will NOT be returning to China Buffet unless they are the only place that survives the Zombie Apocalypse.
