    The buffet isn't what's impressive about this place, but the fresh made-to-order stir fry Mongolian grill. You can load up your plate with veggies and they'll cook it then and there.
    I have rarely liked Chinese buffet places, but this one impressed me, and it's completely possible to have a nutritious meal here.
    The dessert is usually ok, nothing impressive, but they always have ice cream.
    Service is typically fast and attentive as well.

    Though this place has a rough exterior, the interior is very clean. This place is very affordable for a buffet and when something ran low they would fill it instantly, very attentive service. Very friendly service. Though a smaller buffet the options they do have are amazing and I would 10/10 recommend!

    Food was pretty good but I love how sociable the owners and employees are. Place was nice and clean and everything was fresh. Second place today that charges a flat rate $8 tax included. One day I will find a burger joint run by an Asian family and it'll be the best burger I ever had. Before I left the owner checked to see if I lived here and I told I was just visiting through the week. So she pressed that I would be back tomorrow. That a great business owner who loves her business and believes in what she is doing

    I'm always looking for a buffet when I'm on the road after a long day of work.  I've seen some sketchy places,  this one maybe more sketchy than any others.  I almost didn't go in. Inside was very basic,  but clean.  The food wasn't real fresh but the flavors were good and they had some twists on some of my favorites. Not the greatest,  but not the worst. I'f you're just wanting some Chinese give it a try.

    It's very homie and welcoming, it's definitely a place you shouldn't judge by its cover, the food is super great and the staff makes you feel like you're part of their family. Would gladly go any day of the week with my family. I only gave four start because of the water stains in the ceiling but that doesn't necessarily effect the food!
