I've been to alot of Chinese food places, buffet, Take out, dine in. There is always 1 or 2 dishes that might not agree with you. That is not the case here. From the sushi, ribs, hot and sour soup, not a dish that wasn't absolutely delicious. Add that to the price, if you're into China buffet, treat yourself and pay this place a visit, you won't be disappointed. Enjoy

Ordered takeout, the portions were huge, these were their smalls! The food was very hot, fresh and tasted soo good. There's not to many Chinese restaurants around here that can even touch the quality of Yummy buffet!! They even threw in free food with our order, this time we received pork kabobs, the time prior to this we got free donuts.

Food was delicious! We got there late, and hour before closing. Most other buffets we have been to at that time, the food would be cold and empty. Everything was still available. They even came over to out table and asked if they could make us anything else that may have emptied before they closed. We will definitely be going back!

I have eaten here a couple times when working or passing through the area. Each time, the food has been good, the facilities clean, and the staff friendly. It’s a nice little diversion hidden out in coal country.

Staff was friendly. Service was quick for buffet to go (due to COVID you choose which items and they get it for you). Food tasted great!

Was in the mood for Chinese food and since this place is right up the road, decided to dine in this time instead of getting take out. The staff is pleasant and it has a pretty decent selection to choose from. There are also various choice's in the dessert department as well. We'll certainly be going back, most likely for take out, like we usually do, because it's close by, fairly inexpensive, and most importantly, the food is pretty good!!

The staff here were very friendly and my waitress kept up with filling my glass and taking away dishes perfectly. Everything in the buffet was fresh except for some of the fried shrimp I tried, but it was late at night so I suppose you cant expect everything to be fresh and hot, but everything else was good. The food is honestly some of the best in the area, especially for a buffet. If theres anything you want them to refill, just ask and they bring it right out from the kitchen in a couple minutes

I am a Chinese buffet enthusiast. I’ve been to every Chinese buffet from Selinsgrove to Hazleton up to bloomsburg ect. In my opinion, this is the best Chinese buffet you will find around this area for about an hour drive or more in all directions. Not sure if all of the buffets around here have bad reviews, but I don’t know why this one would. My favorite is the takeout option which I stop in for frequently by myself (sometimes with my boyfriend.) I even stop in sometimes just to say hi and use the bathroom if I have to go because Walmart is gross lol... The young lady who usually operates the register, who I assume to be the owner, is very kind and always says greets me and does friendly banter, while keeping professionalism as well. Never had a bad experience here when the owner is there, and I love all of the buffet food. The food is never cold (If you’re getting takeout or buffet, never got table service), and the price for the buffet is about 30 dollars or so for 2 people including drinks. Takeout goes by the weight of your takeout box, and if you STUFF your to go box, it’s like 20 MAX and will last you 2 whole days. I can even reheat my leftovers and enjoy it. Overall the atmosphere isn’t bad at all. The people are friendly. And the food is great. Again, best buffet around here as of October 2023. I will be spending my money here again in a couple days, have been for like 2 years now, and will never get sick of it. Can’t find a better buffet. If you don’t like Chinese food then I can’t help you, but give it a shot. I love it here. :) if I had to find one bad thing to say about this place I guess I would say that the road to the buffet has many holes. That’s it!! Can’t think of anything else I would change. Maybe more sushi haha idk. Thanks for reading.
