This is a great place to stuff your face full of Americanized Chinese food. If you're a working class fat person who needs to eat to get full, rather than for taste or a wonderful experience, then this is the place for you. The prices are cheap and the service is satisfactory. The ambiance is on par with any other generic buffet joint. My only complaint is that they don't rotate in fresh food, often enough...I guess it would eat into profit margins...inverted pun intended.

The last time I came here I was disappointed. The service this time was so much better. It was a Sunday and they were very busy. They asked about the Buffett and we chose not to get it. The service was very quick and the food was good. I will get the wonton soup next time. Susan was very kind and all. She gave us chips for the soup and split up the rice into two bowls for us. The happy family was delicious, and the service was much improved from the last time I came here. I told the owner about how impressed I was with Susan and how I felt like a valued customer again.

C told me about the Too Good To Go app, he saw it on a friend's FB profile. Good to Go is about making sure food doesn't go to waste. When you pick a place, you don't know will be in your surprise bag. We gave it a try with Buffet King Sushi and Mongolian .. for $5 we got enough food for both of us! Vegetable Lo Mein, Sweet and Sour Chicken, fried rice (spicy), (fried?) bananas, egg rolls, fried donuts, and a mystery item. While the fried donuts were bland, everything else tasted really good! Best item for C, spicy fried rice; for me, fried rice and lo mein.

For what it is, a buffet that's not expensive, this place does quite a good job. You can eat a fairly healthy meal from the Mongolian-style grill, reasonably good sushi, and big fruit selection. You can pig out on fried everything, and eat the number of chicken drumettes you'll lie about later. You can be timid about exotic "foreign" food and grab some bad pizza, fries, and wings. Or like me, you can walk a tightrope and do a little of each of these. The selections are usually pretty fresh, or the guy at the grill will cook to order. The sushi guy asked today if I preferred sashimi, though I was too full to accept. Most of the desserts look prepackaged, and taste weird and stale to me, which is not optimal. But by the time I've tasted everything else, I'm okay with sticking with a little fruit and a bit of that soft-serve "ice cream." Don't expect gourmet exquisite quality here, just a good solid buffet with more choices than most.
