China Buffet

Food quality was average, but not to the extent that it’s gourmet. Been here once for an evening out on a weekend.

Not too cheap $ 19.60 for two buffets and water, an okay selection and most things tasted good. Would not eat the sushi… Nothing to write home about but not gross! It was clean and service was prompt.

Upon entering, I was immediately greeted by a man who didn’t say a single word and just started walking off with some menus. I followed him. He asked what to drink and when I asked him what products they had, he handed the pad of paper to a lady and walked away, again without a word.
The food selection was nice. Some of it was good, some of it was okay. Nothing too spectacular.
No one ever came to take our dirty plates or give refills and when the bill came, they realized there was a mistake and came back with an even more expensive bill. I still have no idea what the heck I paid for, it was rather expensive for mediocre chinese buffet.
The Britney Spears playing over the speakers was unexpected, I was expecting the same three vaguely oriental songs playing over and over again like in most other chinese buffets.

I ordered take out from this buffet a few months ago and when I was eating my sesame chicken I noticed something wasn’t right when I was chewing it. Come to find out there was a staple in my chicken! Then when I called to complain they didn’t refund my money for the chicken or even apologize! Havent gotten food from them since, HORRIBLE service and who knows what else could be hiding in their chicken!

The buffet is fine. Decent food if you are in the mood

Not good food. Worst chinese buffet I have been to. Would not recommend it to anyone. Plenty of better chinese buffets in Grand Rapids. Hibachi Grill and Empire Buffet on Alpine, Ming Ten on East Beltine, East Garden Buffet on Kalamazoo.

Good service, average buffet spread, mediocre sushi… if you’re looking for a favorite buffet spot this is not it. My hunt continues…

Best buffet for lunch I’ve been to clean plenty of seating and lots of choice and a large piece of all you cal eat prime rib (you carve your own) veery impressed with that will dwf be going back!!!

When hungover, the decision regarding where to eat brunch is amplified 10-​fold. When there is a group of friends involved, the destination is usually highly-​debated.
Coney? Jimmy Johns? Back to the bar for mimosas? The possibilities are limitless. Last weekend, the decision however, was made easier by a large red sign with white lettering that read «CHINA BUFFET.»
Everyone knows what they are getting into when they enter a Chinese Buffet. A smörgåsbord of mediocre Chinese food and downright poor American food for the low price of $ 7.99 to $ 9.25.
The cast of characters are always the same as General Tsao and Kung Pao are always in attendance along side those warm sweet rolls, chicken on a stick and more poor American food.
You know exactly what I am referring to: onion rings, thrice-​baked cheese pizza with three different kinds and ages of cheese, french fries, overcooked chicken wings and of course, soft serve ice cream served up in those tiny silver bowls that are only available at Chinese Buffets.
Did I mention the salad? What is it about these places that are always the same? Is every American Buffet in China exactly the same don’t to the dishes and the shape of the lettuce? I swear at this Buffet and every other I’ve been to — we’re talking at least five — the lettuce is served in huge chunks. No, not chunks, more like slices. These aren’t iceberg chunks, it is like someone peeled the entire lettuce head. There’s always like only two other toppings, like cucumbers and ranch, and the salad shares a common area with the fruit, and the pudding. The other deserts are the same, square cake chunks and pastry puffs.
Everything is alike. Are these places chains? I literally have no idea. But I am determined to find out.
The only thing different about this place was it had sushi. I don’t know maybe every China Buffet has sushi now just like every McDonald’s has ice cold Sweat Tea (you have to say ice cold, BTW). The sushi wasn’t good, and it was just the generic kind. You know, your chicken tempura, and California roll. No spicy sauce involved. No shrimp, no good stuff.
The service was standard and the seating was ample. They meal came with some fortune cookies, of course.
The highlight of the meal came when I excused myself to take a BM.
Well, I went to take BM and there was this little chubby Mexican kid, must not have been older than eight. Homeboy was just dancing and shaking in the bathroom. It was funny. It was distracting. I couldn’t go. My friends refused to wait for me to wait for the kid so I could make my bowels move.
We left, and I held it in for the two and a half hour ride home. I got home and promptly clogged the toilet.
And that my friends, is why China Buffet gets two stars instead of four or five. The food was so decent, it clogged the toilet.
