New Buffet

Chinese Restaurant $ 3.8 (253)


The New Buffet offers a mix of Chinese cuisine that many find enjoyable, with reasonably good prices for the portion sizes. Some customers feel that the authenticity of the food is mixed, as it leans more towards Americanized versions, yet certain dishes receive praise for their flavor. While the service is typically friendly, it can sometimes be slow, especially during off-peak hours.

" I think this buffet is a budget-friendly option for families. I wasn't wowed by authenticity, but to be honest, my kids liked it and found plenty to eat. Staff was friendly, yet busy. So if you're looking to feed a group without breaking the bank, this could be a good choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has some real potential. The variety in the buffet is commendable, but I noticed some items were cool rather than hot. Even so, the flavors are decent if you go during busy hours. Service was okay, but the restaurant was quiet and I think that may have contributed to the slower filling of the buffet. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I cannot say this is the best buffet I've ever had, it was decent for the price paid. The variety in food could be better and freshness was lacking at times. The place was clean and staff were polite, but I likely won’t come back unless my family insists. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was pleasantly surprised by my visit to New Buffet. The food was consistently good and fresh during lunchtime. They have a great selection of dishes, and I particularly enjoyed their sweet and sour chicken. The dessert section had some appealing options, too. Definitely worth the trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit and it was alright. I found the food a bit bland, not much kick to any of the dishes. Service was average, but they did check in regularly. If you're looking for spice and heat in Asian cuisine, you might want to try somewhere else, otherwise, it’s a decent buffet for the price. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently visited the New Buffet and I found it quite appealing. After a few visits, I can say their fried rice and orange chicken are strong options. The staff does work adequately even during peak hours. However, it's the variety of the buffet that keeps bringing me back, and I'll certainly recommend it to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a regular at New Buffet, and there's a reason for that! Food quality is often great, and their crab legs on special nights are a real treat. It’s a family-run place that feels warm and welcoming. Just remember to visit during busy hours for the freshest food and greatest selection. I love both their takeout and dining-in options. Highly recommend the spicy hot chicken! " (*Curated Review*)
