Customer Reviews

"Drove in from Arkansas to Chicago and were very hungry. We're familiar with China Buffets and thought we would try this because I had a taste for several of their regulars. Egg drop soup would have been better with green onion but that's okay. Mongolian beef was good. Sushi is lacking big! It wasn't bad. But it wasn't worth writing home about."

- Bill&Barb

"As a buffet, there's quite a variety of choices. Four soups, more than a dozen hot dishes, salads, desserts, coffee, tea and beverages. There is a chef stir-frying a dish for the customers, too. All at a price of $8 for us, senior citizens, all inclusive. What more can you ask for?"

- Francis L.

"$14.45 for lunch at 11:11 am. The food was about what you'd expect. I was hoping to find cooked vegetables but there was only cold corn and some salad toppings. The fruit selection was decent and tasted about right. Mostly old people in attendance on a Wednesday at 11:30 am."

- David P.

"For the price, I think they have tasty selection of various dishes with something for everyone. You cannot beat the value. Sushi is good as is Mongolian BBQ, where a chef will cook fresh ingredients you choose. I will definitely go back."

- Greg W.

"We tried the 12.99 dinner buffet. They have good variety of appetizers, meat and veg items, soft drinks, sushi area, desserts and live counter for preparing fresh dishes( based on the ingredients we select) I have had better China buffets before, but for the price this is pretty good deal. Place is well maintained and clean. They also have carry out boxes available in which we can pack the buffet items( the price is decided after weighing the carry out box). Looks like this place is family owned and lot of effort is put by them. There are notes written in multiple places inside restaurant to not waste food ( and if wasted they would charge for the same after weighing)- this shows how serious they are about wastage of food and I highly appreciate it."
