" Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from a buffet, but China Buffet impressed me! Their crab legs were surprisingly good, and the variety of seafood was a big plus. Service was friendly and they made an effort to engage with customers, which is a nice touch. The decor is festive and fun, making it a pleasant dining experience. I would recommend dropping by if you want an affordable meal with plenty of options! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have tried many buffets, but China Buffet stands out primarily for its variety. There were so many types of meats, seafood, and vegetarian options that you could spend an entire meal just experimenting! My favorites were the shrimp and their stir-fried vegetables. The staff was quick to bring water and take requests, which I appreciated. There were a few items that didn’t appeal to my taste, but that’s the risk with any large buffet. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience and I'd return for that selection! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited China Buffet with some coworkers last week for lunch. The prices were reasonable and the vast selection caught my eye! However, I must criticize the freshness of some items. The general’s chicken was great, but the moo goo gai pan seemed a little off. The service was noticeably friendly though, which helped alleviate my dissatisfaction with some of the dishes. Overall, I think it’s a great spot for a cheap lunch if you keep your expectations in check. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited China Buffet last weekend and was pleasantly surprised by the variety they offered. Although I was looking for something more authentic, the food indeed tasted pretty good. The ambiance was cheerful and welcoming, making it a nice place for family gatherings. There were some standout dishes among the typical buffet fare, especially the egg rolls and the sweet and sour chicken. I didn't enjoy the fried rice much as it was a bit greasy for my taste, but overall a satisfying experience. Will I be back? Absolutely! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had an incredible dinner at China Buffet! The portions are generous and the variety is endless. From sushi to shrimp, the selection was amazing. I loved that I could try a little of everything. The environment felt lively, perfect for a casual outing with friends! The service was fast and attentive. While I wish some dishes were a bit more authentic, I still left satisfied and pleasantly full. Would definitely recommend it to fellow buffet lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a frequent visitor to buffets, I would rate my experience at China Buffet as quite enjoyable. The extensive selection was refreshing, with a mix of traditional Chinese and American dishes. However, I did notice some items could be fresher, but overall, it is a solid choice. The staff was welcoming, and the restaurant had a casual vibe perfect for families. I will consider returning with friends for another fun meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my first experience at China Buffet last week. When I walked in, I was taken aback by the extensive buffet setup. I loved that they offered a selection of both Chinese and some American dishes. The food was plentiful, though I can't say the flavor wowed me. Everything was quite average, yet the prices were affordable. The staff was inviting and attentive. I would consider coming back, but would manage my expectations about the food quality next time.
