This is probably the worst experience I’ve ever had. I went here with my girlfriend, and things started off as normal with buffets, pay before you eat etc, we even tipped prior.
Got seated, then ordered drinks, and make our way to the food selection, everything looked okay for the most part.
HOWEVER don’t be fooled. The sushi rice, hard as a rock, the avocado was black.
Her salmon that was “baked” was bad, sour and she couldn’t even eat any of it, same for the shrimp.
I had went what I figured would be the safe route and got sweet and sour chicken, with sauce, lo mien, pork fried rice, grilled potatoes, and cheese wontons.
The S&S chicken was stale and hard, lo mien tasted like it had been out and was starting to turn bad, the pork fried rice was hard, potatoes where fine, and the wontons we’re harder than normal but okay.
I couldn’t stomach my one half plate, neither could she, when we explained to the manager I’m guessing? That the food tasted odd, and sour etc, that it could be spoiled/about to be, we where told no, the fish is fine, it’s because it’s in “mayo” and it’s “salt” that’s what makes it sour. When we explained the same for the noodles, and the shrimp we got it is deep fried, and the noodles had no excuse but didn’t give a reason why, grabbed a piece of fish from the bar, ate it, said it was fine and walked away, without even trying to dissolve the situation or help, we where in and out within 20 mins because we couldn’t stomach the sour and off food, refused a refund because it was just “mayo and salt” that made half the food taste like it’s well past its serving date/time.
Worst experience, I’m usually the kind to just shut up and let it slide, but this was uncalled for, and unprofessional. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Just horrible!!!!! The owners should be ashamed of themselves. Have to pay before eating. Walk back to realize that you have the option of shrimp with legs still attached, fish carcass floating in water, mashed potatoes with crust. There’s pizza there because everyone wants to go to Chinese restaurant for pizza… yeah bad idea!!!! Just disgusting board of health should shut the place down!!!

Edit: went back yesterday and it was TERRIBLE, I’ll never go back. I guarantee you every piece of food on the buffet had been there since lunch time and it was 6:00 p.m. Please don’t eat here without checking the food.
Three stars, because I’ve come here and the food has been pretty decent (today at lunch it was solid). But I’ve come here and the food has been absolutely trash, without a doubt the worst buffet I had ever eaten at. I would recommend going in and taking a look at the food before paying and sitting down.

Great option for a good dining experience. We love the variety of food offered from sushi, to classic Chinese dishes, to standard American foods like pizza and and chicken nuggets! Staff is always friendly and keeps on top of any needs you may have. Clean dining area and restrooms.

We have been going here since our kids were tiny. It’s like a second family, they always seat us at our favorite spot and make my sons rice just the way he likes! Delicious

This place doesn’t deserve even one star. I went to eat here one Sunday with my family, and it was the worst experience of my entire life at a Chinese buffet. The food was disgusting. I approached the manager and told her the food wasn’t fresh, that it was bad, that it looked and tasted bad, that it tasted like it had been there for days. I said, “Excuse me,” in a low voice, trying to keep it confidential so the other customers wouldn’t hear. She told me to follow her and took me to where the food was. She said, “Look, the estimators are on, they’re smoking! How can you say the food isn’t fresh?” She said, “Okay?” and left. Then she went around asking the other customers if the food was good because the man in the red hoodie said it wasn’t fresh, speaking to me in a very unprofessional way. The worst thing about this place is that they charge you before you eat to prevent what happened to me—people leaving without paying because of the disgusting food. I paid $76 for four dishes for my wife, my two daughters, and they only ate ice cream because the food made them sick as soon as they finished their first course. I feel so sorry for the waitress because I didn’t leave her a single cent as a tip due to the terrible food and poor service. People, please, if you want to avoid spending a lot of money on bad food, don’t go here. It’s disgusting. I ended up vomiting at home because of how bad it was. The cold shrimp reeked of rottenness, and the sushi had brown fish and avocado—ewwwww, so nasty! PLEASE DON’T GO IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE POISONED BY THE DISGUSTING FOOD THEY HAVE THERE.

Absolutely disgusting…. I would never recommend this place to anybody I paid almost $100 for my kids and myself to go there for dinner and the food was absolutely disgusting. You’ll see attached is a crawfish that was so rancid with the smell but looked like it’s been sitting in nasty swamp water for who knows how long. I honestly wish I wasn’t so disgusted with the food and needing to get my kids out of there so quick due to my one child becoming sick I should have fought for a refund. Thank goodness for dollar tree next door had to purchase little trash cans for our ride home due to the vomiting from my 2 youngest after eating here. SOMEONE SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN

Very bad from the time we went in the door. When you go in you have to pay. The first thing they ask you is if you want to pay the tip. I tip based on the service and food so I did not pay tip then. The food was cold, dried out and horrible. The grease was running out of the egg roll as I bit into it. The fish was very strong tasting and I feel was borderline bad. I paid for eating the few bites I did later… . We were getting ready to leave and the waitress was their for their tip before we had our coats on. Very pushy and rude. I will not ever step foot in this place.

I would give 0 stars to this place. Food is absolutely disgusting, not fresh at all. I came right when they switched from lunch to dinner and food still looked like it set there since two days before. If you respect yourself and you time and money don’t waste it. Customer service is very unprofessional.

I went there – what a mistake!!! Lady/owner asks to pay before you’re actually able to see what food is there. Mean Lady also asked how much I want to leave as a tip/gratuity. Told her that I’ll leave a tip on a table depending on a service and food. Mean Lady said – “you cheap”. Cool you get insulted and stripped from money before you even get to eat. Luck of decorum is this place domain. Rice on a sushi was dry/dehydrated/ hard/discolored like it been there for a couple of days. All of the stuff that I tried was horrible, not fresh. Spinach didn’t taste like spinach, mashed potatoes didn’t taste like mashed potatoes, each end every single item tasted was not what it supposed to taste like. Only thing that I can recommend were a jello( I guess it cannot be screwed up that easy). Not a place I would recommend to anybody. To sum it up:
-food old, dry, not tasty
-service: mean lady/owner insulting potential customers
– price:paying up front and asked for tip before you’re seated. Probably had a runaway customers in the past (I wouldnt blame customers )(IT IS A TRAP!!!!)-expensive
-cleanliness: toilet was dirty as a main dining area. I can just imagine what is kitchen like.
– furniture: a lot of damage to a tables, seats my sit was taped up with black duct tape and uncomfortable, squeaky. That tape got stuck to my clothing.
Is there Health Department to see what is going on there?
Would not recommend it to my enemy. Will not come back.
