This place has the best Chinese food in town, the waitress is super friendly and so is the chef. Takeout portions are generous also.

Came here to eat with family during our Canada trip as it seems to be only china buffet I can find near corner Brook. At first I was disappointed with the limited amount of items. It’s less than half of what I normally see at a regular china buffet in Chicago. However, the food was served hot and all tasted great. The desserts pies and cakes well average but the mango, straw berry custards were 10/10, never tasted something so good and rich in flavor. The waitress was warm in welling us and asked as many times if we needed anything and this part was the most important part of experience. Compared to all the china buffet places in Chicago we went to, never have I seen this great of customer service. Would recommended for anyone to check out.

Pretty disappointing… sweet and sour sauce was the consistency of pudding and the food wasn’t great. All of the “wet food” items also had a gluey consistency. Half of the items were gone in minutes and refill was slow so it was difficult to really have a full meal. We went up to the buffet 2 times to try to get chicken balls with no success. The chocolate pie dessert tasted good but was dripping liquid. It was $135 for 5 people which I wouldn’t mind if the food tasted like it was worth $135. (and no fortune cookies) Sadly will not be returning.

Went to the buffet… sad. The wait staff were wonderful (& apologetic), however, the buffet was 98% empty…. Food was extremely slow coming out. My husband and a small serving spoon of chow mein and a couple of chicken balls. I had 3 shrimp and a small serving of lo mein noodles….. we basically scraped the containers to get that (and it was cold). We got tired of waiting for the food choices to come out. After 1/2 hr, got up to leave. Our server only billed me for 1 meal….. which was too much as we both left hungry and the amount on both of our plates wouldn’t have made one full plate. . Apparently….. we weren’t the only ones yesterday with the same experience. The owner should be prepared for a busy Friday evening if there’s a buffet. We won’t be back that’s for sure (due to yesterday and previous take out orders tasting terrible). It’s a shame that this restaurant has gone down hill so badly. It use to be the best at one time.

Love this place! It's not up to Gordon Ramsay standards that's for sure but, the food is good and the price is really good. In a world full of inflation and food prices at an all time high. It's nice to see we still have all you can eat Chinese food! And I am grateful for that. Not many places left where to can dine for under $100. The quality of the food matches the price and that's not a bad thing. I highly recommend checking this place out if haven't already!

We made reservations for 10-15 people for a Birthday supper. We went to take up our buffet and most of the dishes were empty. We waited for about 20 minutes and then the waitress came and said the rice is out if you want some while you are waiting for the rest. A few of the group ordered from the menu and everyone was finished before my Sister finally got her dish that was too salt to eat. It was very poor service considering we made reservations. We paid over $20 each per plate and I don't think the Chicken Balls are even made there. That place used to be so good and nice because of the buffet. Definitely needs improvement!!

This place serves North American Style Chinese food that you can order or eat at its buffet. The buffet is about 12 options (one of them being the most tasteless Wonton soup) and the other being the basic choices. Egg/Spring Roll, Chicken Balls, Fried Rice, Noodles, and General Tso Chicken are all passable, but anything with vegetables was cooked in a thick goop that was so bland and slimy. The rice was actually too salty. Everything else was just bland or too simple to be that bad (i.e. French fries and wings). The service itself wasnt terrible but wasnt great either. There was only one woman working. The drink options were soda and water, maybe there was beer, nothing for kids. The buffet sat empty for a little while but was replenished in fair time. And the decor was what you would expect, but cleanliness was not on their priority list. The place did have other customers, but unless you really want Chinese food (and cant find it elsewhere) or are starving, I would steer clear.

Terrible, Horrible food! Do not waste your time or money! My Wife and I stopped and were going to have the buffet! However, we started with the Wonton Soup and it was so bad we couldnt eat it! We left and i told the Waitress about it! She charged us $6.30 for the soup we couldnt eat wich I paid for but was disgusted! Good place to get food poisoning! Disgusting!

The food was very mediocre and cold. Desserts were definitely not to die for, especially the coconut cream and chocolate pies. Carrot cake was passable and the cheese cake lovely. Quite a disappointing eating experience.

Buffet was old, Singapore noodles were crunchy, only 2 chicken balls left from the week before, beef and broccoli was old and mushy, wouldnt eat the chicken chow mein it had crusted over.. onion rings were chewy..( it was 730pm when I got there) . I ate it because I paid for it, would not go back again. Waitress was nice. Place was clean.

I can t speak to the buffet but I ve tried all of the Chinese restaurants in Corner Brook for takeout. I always get the same thing- egg roll, chicken fried rice, sweet and sour chicken and spareribs. This place had the best takeout of the four restaurants I tried. Will definitely be ordering again.

I would give it zero stars if possible. I have eaten here for years and today is my last. Deluxe wonton soup flavorless, max amount of soysauce added to even be able to taste anything. Ginger beef was terrible honestly i have a super stong stomach and eating that was so bad...could hardly stomach it...along with once again zero flavor. The wife had special #1 her rice was rubbery and flavorless, chicken balls tasted a cross between cleaner and frost bite...and garlic spare ribs once again....flavorless. Chow mein...cold. Waitress didnt once ask how our meal was going or how it was, never asked us a thing didnt check up on us either. Not sure why i paid that $60...first and only time in my life where i literally didnt want to pay for a meal...still paid though.. wont ever be back...so sad. Chinese has to be our most favorite meal to eat and after today i just dont see me eating any chinese for a long long time...that was so disgusting...my stomach is still turned....6 hours later.

It was ok.....food a bit greasy.

December 22, 2022

Here from Toronto. I eat Chinese food at least once every 2 weeks. Last night I tried the buffet not wanting to wait to order food. There were 14 items to pick from. Wings tasted ok but were very greasy. Beef with vegetable was totally tasteless. The noodles were good. Cant go wrong with the honey garlic or sweet & sour as your tasting sauce lol. I thought the food was terrible a restaurant like this wouldnt last long in Toronto . This place must be a hit & miss with what I have read. Ill give the can of coke a 5 star

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The food came quickly, and was hot and tasty. We didnt have the buffet, I looked and there were few options but plenty for lunch. We chose from the menu. I got chicken balls, they were good but I would ask them to be more crispy next time, I found the sauce too sweet for my liking. The menu had plenty of options and I will go back. Wheelchair accessibility: There is stairs at the entrance so no wheelchair access ability

December 22, 2022

Gross, food came way too fast. Heat up left overs from buffet much? 3.00 charge for Mr Noodles...tiny frozen shrimp curled into a ball....tasted like cream of mushroom soup with a tbsp of curry. Chicken balls smaller than golf balls dark brown and obviously double cooked in the fryer - hard as rock...wontons looked like they were ends picked off of egg rolls and deepfried to stick together... No by With 2 beer and tip ..$55.. No by Server deserved $5 cash in pocket so lets go with a $50 life lesson learned. Dont eat there.

Their business practices leaves much to be desired. Update: There has been some changes to how they run things. The buffet is an excellent opportunity to try some of their favorite dishes. Food is often hot and fresh, with their wait staff being very attentive. I recommend the Curried Noodles. They are my favorite.

The staff is nice but the food isnt. It is more like a rip off. Ask for chicken fried rice and there will almost be no chicken in that rice. A friend and I asked for this samosas(I think.. I forgot what they are called) they were supposed to be stuffed with chicken. They were stuffed with chicken but verryyyy little chicken. THATS A RIP OFF!
