China Cup Buffet in Prince George

Good place to feed Hungary teens who want a buffet for their birthday.

Ive always found a good selection of foods but the furniture and seating really needs some updates.

Didnt try food yet,did deliveries. People seemed happy

Stopped here for the buffet. I have to say it wasnt the best. I was surprised they had only soya, and plum sauce packages. There was no shrimp or sweet and sour sauces. Food

Bathrooms need to be updated and not smelling like mold. Ever since me and my kids used the bathrooms there we got sick. it was hard to breathe in those bathrooms cause all you can smell was mold

Food is not that good it was good then maybe a new cook I dont know

Ewww yuck. Food was terrible and not worth the 30 per person

Dont go here for lunch ew this was terrible and super expensive Cold everything over cooked everything just bad Food

Love to eat here when we are in PG

Excellent food

I paid for 3A and didnt receive my full order and the dry garlic ribs tasted old so annoying never again disappointed...

Ice cream very good and very good potatoes Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of people with wheelchairs so seems friendly enough Food : 3/5 |

Update: Well they finally changed their selection but still a lot of very similar items and nothing exciting. Service here is well at best poor. The booths definitely need reupholstered. And youll probably need a tetanus shot after using the washings as they are absolutely disgusting. I have seen roadside rest stops that are less disgusting than their washrooms. How they have not been shut down for this I dont know!?

Good place to eat if you re getting tired of burgers and pizza. Buffet features a wide variety of Chinese dishes as well as sushi and baked desserts.

All good

Great food and restaurant

Food was good but there should be signs at some foods that are spicy, other then the food it was a great experience.

If youre craving Chinese cuisine with plenty of options, look no further! This buffet has everything, and the friendly service makes dining here a delight.

The food is good, and a great selection. The prices are exorbitant. Im sure thats just the way things are now but its a lot.

We went for the Sunday lunch buffet, food was Awesome ! Great selection of Chinese, Japanese, and North American foods. We will surely be coming here again.

If I could rate it 0 I would have, there was stuff on the smorgasbord that I wish I had not put in my mouth. Awful, and Ill never go back

They used canned chicken now in their chow mein. Its terrible. Novody is ever in there either so you will likely get old food from the buffet. Ill never go back.

We ordered takeout. Sweet and sour pork: The best dish we ordered. Larger meaty pieces with not too much breading. Dark red sauce. Not too sweet. Ginger beef: The quality of the beef pieces was good but the flavor was not. The China Cup buffet ginger beef has the same sauce as the beef and broccoli but just with some pieces of ginger. No what I consider ginger beef. Beef and broccoli: Good quality beef and fresher than normal broccoli but the flavor was nothing special. Summary. Not a bad choice if you work near by but not worth crossing neighborhoods for. I probably wont order from China Cup again just because there are better options closer to me.

Food was awful, cold and some burnt items. The sushi was the only good thing and the ice cream machine was broken ... for my 12yr old and I was $55... I wont be going back anytime soon...

The food is cold and tastes cheap.

Took my Son and two of my Grandsons for lunch on Boxing Day. Everyone ate what they liked, no disappointments that day!! Vegetarian options: You have to look for them, but they are there!

Good place to fill up

Reviews were true I still gave it a shot. Food was really really gross cold, restaurant was freezing as well. Everything deep fried was stale. Cant get your money back because they make you pay at the door before seating you.

Good place for all the food u like

Theres alot of Chinese food here

Parking: Lots. Wheelchair accessibility: Front door Food : 4/5 |

Went in for supper. Waitress was great .. Alot of the food was over cooked , plus took longer to get fresh food out. Not worth the price we paid.. Never going back.............. One star is one to many....... ..... Thought we would try it one more time with their on March 17th for supper adults was $24.95 each an eleven-year-old child was $2 per year she should have just been charged for a full adult Prince George has a lot better Chinese restaurants in it the China cup I would advise people to stay away the food sucks the prices are overpriced for what you actually get food for thought and the place is also a dive take a look at the bathrooms

This was my first time here. The food was pretty good. Their button mushrooms were great. Their dining area was large and well designed.

Friendlier people serving the area. The food is consistent. A lot of variety. I miss the cottage cheese. I used to always love that choice with the fruit. I love the big roasts, ribs and potatoes and gravy option along with the Chinese food and wonton. A little more salad would e great as well that I missed from before. I appreciate the hard work that I clearly can see thats been put into this food. Thank you to their staff.

The coconut pie and ice cream were good. Other then that truly disappointed. Was not worth the money what so ever. The spring rolls were cold and unflavourful. The wonton soup was by far the worst I have ever had (and I love wonton soup). I found a hair on my sweet and sour pork (which I let staff know so hopefully no one else got any). The fries (regular and sweet potato) for our kids were soggy. Plates were dirty with stuck on food (2 of them I had to put to the side). Kids ice cream bowl also had food stuck on it from the dishwasher. There is obviously no quality checking of the food. $100 for 4 of us (2 adults, a 12 year old and a 8 year old) and it was terrible. We love Chinese food but all of us were very disappointed. I suggest you save your money and go try a different restaurant.

Why does the paper towel dispenser scream and why is this place so scary??? What the ducky doo da is hot a sour soup???

We have been here a couple of times, overall the food tastes are good and options to choose are wide enough as it is a buffet. However, sometimes I feel the sweet taste of food is too much, or even so many of them are sweet which is not good at all. Staffs are friendly and food is almost always fresh. Parking: As the resturant is located at parkwood place, there are a lot of parking spots available around.

Dry food, carrott cake stale. Been out too long definitely not worth 44.00 for two people

Could update the seating. They do allow menu orders even when buffet is on.

Got food poisoning

Fast food at the buffet to feed a hungry son. Clean and fast table service for cleaning off plates from the table. Not high quality food but its good food.

They have one of the best buffet selections in town, and have buffets everyday for lunch and dinner. The food is decent, but over priced. Also, their dessert selection has decreased as they no longer have cake, rice pudding or bread pudding as part of their dessert selection .

The food here is always great. We eat here every time we visit Prince George

This restaurant could be so great if only the filled their food items little bit at a time. They make too much food and then dont throw it out when nobody eats it resulting in awful over cooked food Their hot and sour soup is AWFUL I cant even call it hot and sour soup. It tastes days old and reheated. Its not hot or sour, its just gross I dont trust how old the food is here, I have one gotten food poisoning. Its a shame because it really could be an excellent buffet The owner/ chef must have never eaten Chinese food outside of TV dinners. Even then I have had TV microwave dinner that is way better quality

Brought some reaper sauce had a good time Parking: Its on the outsude of the mall Food : 5/5 |

Lots of selection from Chinese food to western cuisine and ice cream and pop machines. Kid-friendliness: Great place for kids. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair stall right in front.

The food has gone completely downhill. Never going back. Everything was dry and distasteful!!! No cutlery. No staff. Ice cream machine wasn t working. The building temperature was not regulated at all. Super hot. I m not one to leave reviews but I used to love this place. Not anymore. Probably the new management.

The food is delicious, and cheaper.

Nice old-school Chinese buffet. Good food but the decor is a little outdated.

The food here has gone downhill, and so has the service. Every time Ive eaten here, its given me a hard-core stomach ache for days. I believe its mild food poisoning. The employees are hit or miss. Sometimes you get friendly service, and sometimes you get rude service. They lack on taking your plates away while youre dining as well. They used to have better service, at least, but now your plates just sit on your table and pile up when youre out to eat with family.

Keep on keeping on! I enjoyed meeting with family and friends to share a delicious meal with My Mom and older brother for her birthday! 06/29/23

Huge buffet, many choices. Chinese, Japanese, American foods. Good desserts too

Ahhh its a bufay its mid

Best buffet in pg hands down

Good food. Lots to choose from.

Wasnt to bad ! Shrimp was a little dry. Over all was good

Sushi was good, other than that no comment.

Was really good

Delicious.

Gross slop

Food was great. Kids love it.

Charge before you see the food. Food stale. Selection is mediocre.

This was a deeply traumatic experience for me, the regulars are on their last legs spreading their dying breathe across the serving utensils. The restroom was horrifying, appearing as if someone had unloaded across 3/5ths of the floor and neither stall could provide the necessary privacy for one to conduct any manner of business. Of course the taps look like they have been religiously shunned by the aforementioned husks of people who frequent this joint. In short to even place bare skin upon any serving spoon or tong will shave a year off your life each time guaranteed. Wheelchair accessibility: I m surprised the regulars can still walk but they wouldn t have any trouble getting here if they couldn t.

Second best all-you-can-eat in PG. A bit expensive ($27pp at time of writing), but so is the other place. There is lots of selection, and the quality is 4/5 most nights. Sometimes (like if you go a little later, around 8ish) the food can be a little on the 3/5 side, but still good. Theres also a salad bar, ice cream machine, and pop machine for unlimited use. Max stay is 2 hours. Vegetarian options: There are good vegetarian options in the buffet. Even more on the menu. Parking: Tons of parking as it is in a mall. Kid-friendliness: Lots of kid friendly and western options (chicken strips, onion rings, fries, etc) Wheelchair accessibility: 1st floor, no stairs. Wheelchair accessible parking, seating, and entrance.

I ate too much lol, but it was good

Buffet - Lots of funny tasting food. As is not fresh, freezer burnt tasting, dry. VERY expensive! Food : 2/5

Oh boy. Started out bad. Got seated and asked for a pop. She must have forgot cause about 15 minutes later I flagged down another girl to get a drink and finally place my order. The buffet didn t look the best so I thought I d try something fresh. #7 for one Chicken chow mein Almond chicken Dry garlic pork $15.99 And a spring roll $2.50 Well I was not prepared for what was to come lol. Noodles had a weird taste not even what I d call flavor. The chicken was some sort of boiled mush But holy two firsts for me. Garlic powder sprinkles on the dry garlic pork And Full almonds on the barely cooked almond chicken??? This was by far the worst Chinese food I have ever had.

We went here and I was happy to see and eat with my grandma only to be let down with the food and service, during the entire time we were there every 1-2 minutes they would come and ask when we are gonna pay the bill, not to mention the food was mediocre, would not recommend and I got sick afterwards, try somewhere else! Golden plate or edo are pretty good

Food was a disappointment this time.

A large variety of all you can eat

The food tasted very stale like it had been out for an hour. The chowmein was hard and stuck together. We had eaten at 5:30 just before the dinner rush, so it would have been my guess the food would have been fresh, but it was not. The kids enjoyed themselves, and the atmosphere was good. But I was so disappointed with the food that I almost asked for my money back. Took my family out, and it was over $100.

Go to China Taste instead; that is in the plaza on Ospika Blvd. & Massey Drive. This place has horrible service and food that everyone touches. The establishment is dirty and the manager overcharges people, like myself. It was 64.99 for two children and myself. The board for pricing is misleading where states children are 3-12. When I went to tell them that they overcharged me, the management argued with me in front of other customers and didnt even give back the correct refund. It is important to know they mix old food with new food so you need to show up when just opened or else you will get sick.

Amazing as per usual

First time eating here. They had a good selection in the buffet. We were at the end of lunch buffet so Im looking forward to going back for the actual dinner one. I hear its even better.

Food was ok

It was good and fresh food and service was good also

Clean,friendly,great selection.. a definate go to!!

The food was great as always.

Disappointing

Excellent ! Great service and food !!!

The family likes to come here the buffet.

This place is a hit or miss. If you show up for buffet as soon as they bring out the fresh stuff great! But anytime after that the foo quality jumps through the floor. The service here has never been good unfortunately. I suggest China Taste instead.

It was Fabulous the service is Exceptional plus the Buffet is Extraordinary

Didnt expect the food quality that good. I loved the roasted beef ribs, fried prawns and squids, watermelon, fried vegetables and beef dishes, even wonton soup. Was surprised to see canned yellow peach in such a town. Totally loved it. Its a must go if you are passing by and wanna try some Chinese food.

The food was fantastic.

Food was OK nothing special ,disappointed in the childrens cost per meal under 12 not honored

Great food and beverage

I do not recommend this place at all, they make you pay up front before youre even seated and the food was atrocious. I ate 1.5 plates and then threw up in the parking lot and was sick several times over the next 24 hours.

Really good buffet. Good mix of Chinese and Western.

Great variety of food and it was all nice and fresh and tasty. Parking: Lots of parking Wheelchair accessibility: On ground level

The delivery guy is always trying to get money out of me and thats not right I was think of not ordering there anymore if I have to see him

DO NOT EAT HERE. First red flag is paying up front. The food was awful. The veggies were slimy and had a smell. My friends also got sick and I threw up. Waste of $27.

Absolutely terrible service. Very rude on the phone. Order was forgotten and didnt show up. I would never order here again. I suggest you dont either. I would never ever recommend this place.

Large selection of items. Typical buffet food.

Serving girls were busy gossiping with each other and rest of the time they were busy over the phone.we had buffet and when we got new plates the previous plates were never removed from the table and then I handed over the plates to the server myself two times. To be honest we gave tip in advance before we had the food coz they charge for the food before you eat.

Best Chinese buffet in town, but also the only one Light on sea food, heavy on chicken. Enough selection to make it interesting, although this buffet falls falls short of the best ones, it is still a good deal

Always a nice stop after long day of driving..excellent smorgasbord.and lots of seating for one or more.

Good variety of food.

Nice selection of food. And theyre always bringing out new food when things get low. 2022 went for lunch with my granddaughter today. Nice selection of food desserts fruits and sushi

The food was good The place was clean

Delicious meal all together mmmm yum

I always find the bathroom yucky....but lately the food has been real good

Nice place in town for big family diner or lunch . I love it . Went there for Thanksgiving and its was awesome

All hot meals should be maintained at or above 140F. I doubt they follow any sort of guidelines! Everytime Ive tried to go back the food is always cold! The garlic pork and sweet and sour pork tastes like its coated in stale old cooking oil. They use way too many bean sprouts in their food, for my liking anyway. With their increased prices you would think you could get a decent meal. Its such a shame, they used to be decent.

Some Food was cold, Some was died out. Not a good experience. Parking: Ample room Food : 1/5 |

This place way to over priced! $26 for children 12 and up and $13 for Toddlers ages from 3-12 years old I paid $100 for us to eat there and the food was disgusting my children didn t even eat nothing worth $26 and they didn t give us a clean table after we asked for them to clean our table they just kept walking around doing nothing! This place was the worse for customer service! All together with all our family who showed up we paid close to $400 to be treated not so nice! This was by far the worse customer service I ve ever had and mind you we havnt been there since before the pandemic! Dietary restrictions: I had explained to them I am liver transplant patient and couldn t eat bean sprouts and asked nicely if they could make a bit without it and they ignored me the ribs had nothing but fat!

Food was terrible We won t be eating there again we both got sick. Not worth 60$ for 2 people.

Good selection to choose from

Sweet & sour pork and chicken were mostly doggie dough

Well Buffet Was Better Then B4 And Staff Are Friendly And Happy We Got To Serve Our Selfs

Amazing food like always. Great to see them.open and following covid rules

Well not too bizzy, now you can get you own food again.But some was very dry (ie)sat out under warmer too long and that was the way last time!....so good China Cup you were awesome in the early years but its time for us too part!....thats my last time!....:(...you were a 5 but now a 3 so sad!...

Very nice place to dine

Yummy food

After reading reviews this afternoon my wife and I figured we would try the buffet. We saw a lot of 5 star reviews so we figured it should be decent. I ignored a few of the bad reviews thinking some people are just picky and like to pick things apart. Upon first glance everything g seemed to look good. We soon realized the saucy meats were hard most likely from sitting to long and had more batter then meat. The stir fry noodles were bland but we found one noodle dish that was average. The battered prawns had a ton of batter but were good. I could list off every item but I ll just say we sent back half a plate the 2 times we went up. The good, the sushi was really good which would bring me to a 2.5 if I could pick it and the pop was good. I personally wouldn t go back ever again. I normally don t write reviews but I went based off the reviews I read so there needed to be some truth in the reviews. If you like fast food Chinese food, this is your place.

Very unsatisfied. We came at 6pm (dinner time) and the food selection was next to none, cold, old, tasteless. All the sauces had a skin floating on top. Even the desserts were half frozen. 2 Adults, 2 kids $70 dollars. We all couldnt finnish our first plate as it tasted gross and ate the fruits and salads so we could leave with some food in our stomachs. We will never be back.

Food dry overcooked was not impressed If it was not for dessert bar be a waste of money

Full of MSG

Have been going here for years but last few the quality has gone down but yesterday was the worst I have ever seen it there wasnt much to pick from and what was there had been there for awhile all in all it was a bad experience I wont be back

Best Sushi & Veggies in the entire north! Updated, clean bathrooms & buffet service. Huge variety still even in these dreadful times.

Not gonna lie wasnt the greatest but thank you to my roommates for bringing me along and buying me dinner so that was the best part of going to this place In any event

HORRIBLE...

Foods cold..washrooms are disgusting that was 3 yrs ago..i think they got worse..one would think to bring in business during this time they would b on the ball..

Nice place to eat. Many different kinds of food. I wish it was cheaper

Their food is great, the buffet is awesome, and their combo prices cant be beat! Tonight, I had the most amazing Beef Chop Suey with my combo!

China cup is almost back to normal. You dont have to have a mask but they have these plastic globes they want you to use. Annoying to say the least.

The food was good

Some food was overcooked, dry. Good variety. Not as many items as last time I was there.

Good food.

Cheep food that later makes you regret being born, very nice. I think they intentionally made the ice cream machine slow to discourage people like me, but overall great experience

The food was good this time

Very good food and kinda good service . I havent tried the dessert but I heard its good

When ever me and my partner go here, we have a pretty good experience, staff are always fairly friendly and polite. The food isnt super fresh when we go but it is still acceptable and a fairly large selection. Over all a good place that we quite enjoy.

Its okay, we went in a bit late. Im sure its better when its fresh. But it seems like they changed some of the items to a different brand. But I guess thats the nature of business.

Always good food to eat . Excellent staff to help

Awesome food.

What can I say, a buffet with variety and you get a good meal by choosing what you put in your plate. I like this place for Chinese food. A little pricy but it is a buffett.

Amazing food

Awesome food!!

Very good food and excellent varieties.

Good ambience and good service and nice food.

China cup is such an awesome place to eat in prince George the service was so awsome and the helped us wit r vaccine pass ports that waitress was the best

30 Plus years going to this business and now refused over Trudeaus Illegal vax pass. I will NEVER return. The untested unapproved vax is causing the 4th wave.

Loved the large selection of food. Friendly staff and very clean overall. Definitely recommend.

No flavor and chow mein had no veggie or bean sprouts

Great food still awesome time

Finally, a decent Chinese restaurant! Ive only been in PG about 3 months, and Ive tried two other places with food that was inedible and ended up in the trash. I was apprehensive about trying another place because I dont like to waste money. China Cup is definitely a solid 4 stars. Food was fresh and delicious, I especially liked the batter used for the prawns. The sweet & sour pork was a tiny bit dry, but still enjoyable. The chow mien wasnt really chow mien. It was more of a noodle dish. Good value and huge portions, I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow. Reasonably fast delivery (by DoorDash) too. Looks like youre my new local Chinese place.

Verry good

Horrible
