When you first opened you offered a really good size container to get lot’s of food. Now all you care about is making the containers smaller and charging us more. The other day I was in and now the noodles are plain and have nothing on them, chow mein taste awful and looks it too. Lastly, chicken balls were always big size and now are smaller just a little bigger than a golf ball. Buffet to go used to be really good and now I don’t want to go back. Very disappointed.
Super fun concept. All you can fit! Food quality is what you'd expect for a buffet priced between $10-$15.
I love the food & price. It's my go-to Chinese food place nowadays. Also: the newer gentleman you have working the cash is fantastic! The guy that used to work there looked & acted like he hated his job. This new guy is amazing. He's very friendly & takes care of you. Keep up the great work!
The first time I got food from here in late 2023 the food was great, hands down some of the best Chinese cuisine I'd eaten. I got food from here recently, August 2024 and the rice was set out in the buffet was spoilt. I hadn't realised because they were also cleaning some of the cooking equipment and I was also distracted so I assumed the odd smell was from that and didn't think much else of it, but it was in fact the rice that was set out for people to eat. So, it's definitely a hit or miss. Thankfully, my stomach isn't super sensitive and we realised before really eating much of the rice, but just be mindful it could go either way at this place. The meats were still decent, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour pork, fried shrimp and mushrooms were good; the general TSO was okay. Chicken wings were great
Disgusting food, I got sick right after eating. Total bland no taste only sugar added. TSO chicken is just breading and tiny piece of chicken inside. Their cook is so rude, if you complain he would abuse you in his own language. Not recommended at all. Wish I could give negative stars. No customer service No flavours!! Waste of money.
What a disappointment. The rice and noodles were about the blandest I've ever tasted. Zero flavour and considering Chinese cuisine is about flavour they failed on every level. The chicken wings were dry as hell, everything else was just sweetened to the max. The only good thing was the chicken balls. I would avoid at all costs. If you're searching for budget value this isn't it.
Reasonably priced Canadian-Chinese food, quick service, nice dinning room, and good hours. I will be back again! This is the large size:
I'm not a big fan of Chinese food but this one is great. I prefer by far the Manchu Wok at regent mall. Soup and fried rice was fade. Noodles, veggies, general tao, shrimps and fried wonton was awesome. Service is amazing. Price are OK.
I went there fri night and got very sick a hour or so later was up all night doing both they wouldnt do a refund or ask if I was ok never again will I go back
Good
Good Chinese food
so the food is good but when your eating it you will feel the urge to throw up for like a 1minute but over all it is so good so sweet you should defenetly go there
I have had some good food here, but after uncooked chicken, clumps of unmixed seasoning in the noodles and a friend getting food poisoning from here, I won t be returning.
Everything was great. Centrally located near Bishop Dr.
Definitely a must try, and continuing to eat there.
Too expensive
Ordered party platter of sweet and sour pork and chicken Chow mein. Sweet and sour was good but the chicken Chow Mein is not Chow mein noodles but rather bean sprouts, and no chicken, just chicken flavored sprouts.
Good quality, delicious Chinese food. Buffet allows you to choose whatever you like
First off this is not all you can eat. You buy a small medium or large plastic container and you need to be able to close the lid (no mountains) even though the three people in front of me had 3 large containers filled as a mountain. I asked to add 1 more egg roll and I was denied. Apparently some people are allowed to not be able to close the container and some aren t. End of rant. The food was actually good, everything except the rice and noodles, they were bland and had no chicken in it. So I would give 4.5 stars on the good food and 2 stars for the rice and noodles. Price is a bit expensive considering the size of the plastic containers. Cost me 20$ plus tax. Menu items are very limited.
They have a great buffet setup with plenty of options. We were in and out in minutes. The general Tao chicken did not have the heat I expected but was delicious. The food all tasted fresh tasty
They have gotten incredibly stingy at this location since covid, do yourself a favor and go to the oromocto or Northside one
Love their noodles and Tao chicken
Biggest rip off in town . Ill go to burger King before I go back here
Its great because you can serve yourself again at the North Side location!! Love it! But either way, Buffet to Go, is one of my favorite places to eat! Its always sooo good! Addicted to the tempura shrimp. Hehe!
Bland food. I have had better tasting supermarket frozen Chinese food
Great value. Try it. The food is good.
I like to get my own food. They dont put enough in them to make it worth it. Will stick to the northside location. At least they let you serve yourself.
Greasy, but filling and delicious. Nice people, patient customers, limited seating but most prefer takeout anyway. Divide your containers between wet and dry. Vegetarian options: Plenty of rice, noodles, veggies, rolls, and wontons. Parking: It shares parking with Dollarama and Candy Shoppe, but plenty of space. Wheelchair accessibility: Sloped sidewalk at the end from what I can remember.
You out as much food as u want in a container . Went 30 min before close and food still good and fresh , tasty
One of the best restaurants in Fredericton!
Love it !!
Best Chinese food :)
They charge for the food container but stuff in as much as you can fit. I served my own food. Food tasted freshly made and good! I ll be back again Parking: Lots of parking space in the front of the store
The food from the buffet was cool to cold for almost all dishes. All three of us stopped eating less than halfway through our meals because we felt unwell. Most of our food went in the garbage. The food was literally sickening, and I strongly recommend not eating here. I will certainly never go back.
Good place
Great, delicious and affordable food! Very friendly staff! Will definitely be back!
Got it for takeout tonight, the beef and broccoli had no beef in it, and the veg was raw/cold
Great Food!!
Best spot in Fredericton
Cant say enough about this place. Food is fresh, servi gs very generous and reasonably priced.
Delicious, cheap and best food besides cooperative staff
Good portions,
Its so good i would greatly recommend it and the staff are so nice and the food is so delicious and the price is good and portion are huge
So gross. You may as well go to the food court in the mall. Just gross. Expensive and less selection than a food court.
Highly recommend to go.
our go to place when too busy to cook.
Pretty good place for a big dish of food. Some people give more than others
The food here is good, and filling. The staff are also very friendly. Plus, you get lots of food.
Their food is amazing!
we just witnesses a woman leave the store when her bag broke open as we were heading inside the store for dinner. A minute later we watched her come back into the store proceed to ask them to replace the meal that fell onto the ground. After some back and forth we watched the older gentleman start to yell at her and tell her it was her fault. I am sorry but no customer that just actually brought you business should be treated like that. we watched them scoop the food back into the containers and we left right away. No thanks. We have eaten her many times before but that is just bad practice and bad way to treat people. I think they need a visit from the health inspector.
this place is horrible! Do NOT EAT HERE. After spending $40 on two large plates for our family night out we proceeded to walk out the door, well the bag ripped causing both large plates to fall on the ground right outside the door. 1 pate was ok but the other was all over the concrete. After proceeding to scoop all the food back into the container i went right back into the store to explain what had happened. After trying to explain what happened due to no real fault of ours they said i would have to buy a whole new plate at full price. i then proceeded to explain how they packaged the meals and all i did was walk with 2 kids to my car when their bag ripped. What kind of place makes a customer pay full price after a accident that was no fault of mine. They then proceeded to yell at me to watch my kids better and it was my fault. I left the food on the counter and watched them then start to empty my food back into the food bins they serve other people out of. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. Horrible treatment of people in general and not to mention replacing food that was on the ground in a parking lot back into the bins they serve the next customers out of. Way to go Buffet To Go!!!!!
Visited yesterday for dinner. Everything was hot and delicious!! Fresh chicken wings were ready just as the other batch was finished (and even that old batch was hot and yummy). The woman who put together my bowl was so warm, friendly and generous with the portions. This will become a regular spot for my family. Good price, nice people, and great food! Thank you from 4 VERY happy, new customers.
Hot and fresh food.
They have changed the size of there containers recently. Instead of a small and large, they now have a small, medium, and large, however the large is now a narrow and long container which seems smaller than the old large and the medium seems smaller than the previous small. The attendant was not overly accommodating either. I dont go here often anymore, the atmosphere has become uncomfortable and somewhat hostile I find. I find Manchu Wok to be better quality but it is less convenient to go to the mall for sudo-chinese food.
Love it
I love buffet to go, recently their prices went up, which Is understandable. Today was my last visit, the portion sizes are now smaller with the price staying at $14 and there was no flavour. The food is not worth the money anymore and i will be looking for a new place for my cravings
Wow for a place that has the 4 star rating your food was Blan and over cooked I will not be recommending or eating at That restaurant again
Chinese food at affordable price
Do not go to this buffet. Go to the one in Ormocoto. They let you pick your food and you can fill up the take out bowl as much as you want. The good is much fresher and tastier there. The one in Fredricton is dry and the workers aren t friendly. You also don t get what you pay for by far ! Take my word. Ormocto everyone. You get your moneys worth.
Great place and great food especially if youre in a hurry and dont have time to wait.
Love love love this place good price great staff
Huge amount! Fast,cheap,tasty! My little boys are also like that, especially Broccoli, healthy and tasty
Buffet to go had tasty food.
Delicious delicacies with competitive prices.
This place is the best, my favorite place to eat in all of Fredericton.
Pre-covid this place was exceptionally great! During Covid, the staff serve you and some were excellent but for the past 4 months it appears all staff are family and the quantities have intentionally diminished drastically. In fact, if you pay attention you can see how crafty staff has become in maximizing air space.
First time today. Fresh food and great service. Will definitely be back!
Great service, good food, looking forward to eating here again
Highly recommended! Friendly staff, delicious and fresh food, great value!
I do not recommend. Taste is average, atmosphere is uncomfortable.
Good food nice place , friendly staff . You gotta show proof of vaccine for dine in.
A good place to visit, we take out their food regularly. The only thing that stops me from giving them 5 stars is that the amount of beef in their beef and broccoli dish is declining with every visit
would give 0 stars if possible. very rude. i called before i came in and was told i could get half off even though my birthday was a day before and staff was very rude when confronted.
Great place
Nice place to go for a fast eat ! Always fresh
Food is delicious, clean and tidy.
No thanks
Cheap price and good food
Weve been working in town for over a month and this place has been a staple for our survival. We learned how to stuff to go containers like food Tetris with great fresh food! These guys know food and how to treat customers. Plus they like my sic dance moves! Cheers guys and thanks! Anyone reading this, EAT HERE!!!
Excellent food!!!
Quick. Easy. Not the greatest food but for the amount of food vs price and speed super worth it for a quick meal.
Its very deceptive. I personally associate a buffet as an all you can eat sort of thing, but this is NOT like that. If youve got 10 bucks and want chinese, its ok. But honestly compared to something like the Jubilee has the same stuff and more, and that you can just order out there or come in for their full all you can eat buffet for like 4-5$ more, im surprised the stores still up even rn. What a shame
Good price and freshly.
It was great service and a huge amount of food for the 13.75 it cost the windows in the lobby need some kind of sun blocker tho it was hot as hell in there because of the sun but other the that no complaints at all
Fast, cheap, tasty. Measures up to any of the other takeout places Ive gone to around town, including buffet express, mandarin palace, and jubilee. This is even cheaper and you literally just pick whatever you want and they cram it in a big bowl. I usually get 2 meals out of one $13 container.
The food is ok and good price.
Great concept. Good food made from scratch.
Our go to place if we want something quick but still with veggies and some color. Never too busy, even during lunch!
Delicious food for a great price...friendly service
Love it
Super yummy food! Awesome prices.
Missing a couple of items and was generally okay. Wish there was more items that werent crazy sweet. BBQ vegetables, sweat and sour chicken, general Tao chicken and the only vegetables that didnt have a sweet sauce on them was chow mein and brocolli beef. Dont out BBQ sauce on the BBQ vegetables and have all the items full and it would have been a 5. Its a great price and fast for lunch
Choose your own take out Chinese food. What better way for Chinese take out is there
Always fresh and definitely the only place in Fredericton where I get my fix from... Great bang for the buck, and always enough in my container to have as lunch the next day.
Fresh is always the first thing you will notice if you are a returning customer. Wonderful flavour and colours! You will always have enough for another meal leftover.
Fair price and good food
Great spot for a quick meal
Quick place to get limited menu Chinese food
Great deal but at the same time, you could go to buffet express and get all you can eat buffet for the same price.
Nice food,,fair price
It fills the void.
Fast service, good price and friendly people.
Very good food, great price and the staff was wonderful. Highly recommend.
