" Chow King is truly a mixed bag. Some dishes are fantastic—especially their orange chicken that is bursting with flavor and the fresh sushi offered. However, I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the tables and flooring during my visit. It felt as if they were scrambling to cover both food replenishment and cleaning. The service was pleasant, but the staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours. I would recommend it but hope for better dedication to cleanliness on my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Chow King Buffet thinking it would be another typical buffet experience, but I was pleasantly surprised! The quality of food was noteworthy, particularly their orange chicken. I was impressed by the selection of fresh vegetables and nice sushi preparations. The only drawback was that some of the items felt a bit overcooked and less appealing. The service staff was respectful and friendly; they did check on us frequently but did not hover, which I appreciated. I would definitely come back for another meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chow King Buffet was a pleasant surprise for me! I loved the laid-back atmosphere and the warm welcome we received from the staff. The food was fresh, and the sushi selection was impressive; every piece I tried was delightful. My only complaint would be that the desserts could use a little more variety, as I found the options quite limited. That aside, I had a fantastic time and would recommend it to anyone looking for a buffet that takes pride in its food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chow King Buffet gave me a pleasant experience. I loved the environment—it wasn't too noisy—and the staff was friendly. Breakfast was excellent, with a good variety of options, especially the pancakes and the dim sum. However, at lunchtime, I noticed several items were not very warm, and I found the dessert selections lacking. Overall, I enjoyed my time but think there's room for improvement in keeping the food at an optimal temperature. " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who appreciates Asian cuisine, I was excited to try Chow King Buffet. While the first impressions were favorable, with a bright, welcoming atmosphere, it didn't live up to expectations. Many items tasted like they were sitting out for too long, including the fried rice, which was mushy. There was a decent selection, but the waitstaff tended to shift our plates away prematurely. Overall, I was underwhelmed and noticed some unclean areas that made me uncomfortable. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience at Chow King! Initially, I was excited about the diverse options, but the execution fell short. The fried rice tasted stale, and I noticed that several dishes, especially in the seafood section, were not regularly replenished. On top of that, the atmosphere felt rushed, as waitstaff hovered around constantly checking for tips. I felt uncomfortable and pressured throughout my visit. This place has potential with its variety, but they need to work on food freshness and service etiquette to create a pleasant dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! I had the opportunity to visit Chow King Buffet & Grill last week, and I was blown away. The variety of food was incredible! From sushi to traditional Chinese dishes, everything was remarkably fresh. I especially enjoyed the garlic green beans which reminded me of authentic Chinese cuisine. The atmosphere was lively, and even though it was busy, I felt it added to the dining experience. I will definitely return when I'm back in the area! Highly recommend if you're looking for a buffet that doesn't skimp on quality. " (*Curated Review*)
