Buffett and restaurant
C R.

We went on a Thursday afternoon for lunch and won't be back. The buffet offers limited choices and at least half of those were dried out. The potstickers were so dry that they felt and sounded like hockey pucks. It was difficult to bite into them and they were very chewy. This is just one example of many things that just weren't palatable. Choose another place if looking for a Chinese buffet.

Coworker showed me this place during lunch and I loved it, there was plenty to choose from! Their peanut chicken and crab ragu were my favorite choices. The staff was wonderful, clean spot as well! I'll definitely be back

View from our table. There are 6 buffet counters to choose from.

If you've ever been to any Chinese Buffet you know you're rolling the dice in regards to a good experience. Sometimes every single thing about your trip meets or exceeds your expectations, while other times things fall flat. Today I had a bit of a middle road experience, but noticed some new things that help add to the experience. First impressions/ service: when you first enter you're greeted by an employee at the front desk - if you meet the young lady who seems to be there all the time, you're in luck. I'm afraid I don't know her name, but she is exceptionally friendly and is great at remembering customers (once I left a pair of gloves behind and she brought them to my table when I came back months later. Very impressive). The dining area is also relaxing for a casual environment, with Chinese style decorations hanging from the walls and high ceilings. The front wall of the restaurant is almost entirely windows, so there is a lot of natural light coming in to make everything look bright and appealing. The staff keeps the tables clean and takes notice of when your plates or cups are empty. They also wipe down the counters near the food trays pretty frequently. The men's bathroom wasn't really spectacular - single occupancy and not all that clean. The Food: it's hard to judge the food at a buffet if you ask me. On one hand, if you know what you're getting into and craving specifically that, then everything works out. On the other, of you expect to find more than one or two items to write home about then you'll likely be out of luck. For me, I enjoy the food. Across the 6 Buffet tables here you'll find 4 that have main lunch/dinner dishes, one with desserts and some salad ingredients, and one with sushi and some other cold options. Some staples like fried rice, lo mein and sweet and sour chicken are easy to pass on here, but some of the more unique dishes are worth trying (i'm looking at you Salt and Pepper chicken). They recently started preparing hot crab legs (in the past they'd be chilled in ice) and moved some of their pastries from the dessert counter to a shelf above their ice cream bin. One dish I specifically like is the Crab Rangoon that is served in little bite sized pastry pockets instead of the standard triangle shape. The bottom line is, this restaurant will help cure any cravings you might have so long as you know what you like from here. If you know you like 5 things and eat those you'll have a great time. If you're trying a little bit of everything then you likely won't be blown away. However you approach it, I think it's worth a try either way. You might just be surprised with what you find.

Food was good, some of the hot food was cold, ham salad on potato skin ? Well maybe ? Hot and sour soup was hot and tasty. Sushi was average, heavy on the rice in the rolls. Crab Rangoon was nice. Mac and cheese ? Watery. General chu chicken was sweet and mild ( need spice ) overall place was clean and had a nice lunch. Chinese food ? Well maybe.

Six heated stations full of food!

Ok, this is the typical American Chinese buffet you'd find in most urban and suburban, as well as touristy cities such as Glendale, Orlando or Falls Church. So, having said this, I am basing my rating and review as compared to similar American-Chinese buffet joints. As such, I thought this place was very nice--clean, bright, friendly wait staff, and as expected--American-Chinese food (not real Chinese, mind you!). For what you pay, I thought the selection was quite generous, tasty and palatable, and expected for a place like this. SO.... if you are expecting a Peking Gourmet or a PF Chang's, this is not the place for you (I thought the other reviews were a little too ridiculous in their expectations!). BUT... if you're expecting the typical cheap, American-Chinese buffet place that serves the food that you;d expect (Gen Tso's, chicken coconut, salmon slathered in mayo, mushroom buttons with stuffing, chicken skewers, beef with broccoli, etc. y'know, the usual!), then this is the place for you! For what it is, I thought it was a great value. (ps Come early and you know the food is fresh!).

Nice decor, clean tables and attentive staff. Great variety, food could be rotated a bit more to ensure heat in dishes that needed to be kept hot. Our drinks were not filled with any type of frequency. So, four stars. Good food. Crab Rangoons were off the hook. Finished up with a beautifully cooked sugar donut. Oh and they should add more variety for the sushi. If you can afford to serve crab legs you can get some fish for sushi too, not just the crab sticks.

Sadly the breakfast buffet we hoped to go to was done serving breakfast, even though we called & were told otherwise. Ended up here instead.

Listen... I'm pregnant and I've been craving Chinese food and I finally tried this place.. CHANGED…read moreMY LIFE!!! When they rang me up I thought it was pricey for some "average" Chinese takeout , but now this is my NEW and ONLY spot I'm going to go to! We fed our family of 5 with the sesame chicken, veggie lo mein, egg rolls and spring rolls, PLEASE try this placewhoever was cooking last night must've been upset about something cause they put their WHOLE FOOT in this food but on a serious note I'm impressed and I NEVER leave reviews but if someone asks about Chinese food recommendations-I'll show em y'all's way

Ordered takeout. I don't like to rate restaurants on takeout, because it's never as good as…read moresit-down, but here I am anyway. The cashier was a little gruff, but the woman running back and forth between the kitchen and the front had a better business sense about keeping customers happy. She didn't want me to wait long, so I think she rushed the kitchen a little bit, which I appreciated, but also may have led to some of the demerits on the food I mention below. I was happy to see one dish I ordered, the pig intestine with fish, on their picture board above the cash registers. That gave me confidence that they knew what they were doing and it was the best dish by far out of the three I ordered. The intestine was fresh and flavorful, the spice level was high, but also not too salty. It was a lot of food. Only drawback here was the fish (tilapia?) seemed to be heavy on the breading. The other two dishes were disappointing. Penang curry with pork had good vegetables, but the sauce had too little flavor since they went too heavy on the coconut milk. The pork seemed like chicken, not pork. Way too soft and flavorless. The Singapore Chow Mei Fun had good noodles and veggies. But the curry powder was not blended in. Eating it, I could still feel it in powder form. It was also far too oily. Overall, I think they had a lot of options but next time I'd steer more towards classic Chinese, since that seems to be what they do well. I hope next time the flavors will be stronger and blended better (i.e. powders actually stirred in). I'm willing to give them another chance, since they do have a lot of dishes I like. Last note: the online ordering service does not indicate that dishes come with rice. I thought they would have rice by default, but then when I added the penang curry to my cart, it asked whether I wanted rice or noodles or something else. So that made me think I had to order rice separately, which meant I had twice as much rice as I needed. It also said "quart of white rice" was sold out, but "pint of white rice" was not, yet the rice that came with my meal came in a quart container.

I saw other tables received steamer baskets full of dumplings: Bao, shiu mai, and xiao long bao, which was a very attractive presentation. There are no condiments on the table, but the waitress will bring whatever you ask for. I ordered the spiciest thing on the menu: Dan Dan noodles. I'm on a quest for something to make me feel the burn. This wasn't it either. If I had to guess the ingredients, I'd say a cup of fried ground pork over a quart of mushy noodles, water for broth, and a sprinkling of chopped cilantro floating in a quarter teaspoon chili oil. At the very bottom of the bowl there was a slight taste of mala chili peppers. At $14 it was filling, nourishing, but I'd probably try the soup dumplings next time.

I was seated and immediately served complimentary tea, and fried wontons with sweet and sour sauce. I ordered the Kung Pao lunch special which comes with a choice of egg roll or soup, and white or vegetable friend rice. I chose the wonton soup and fried rice, and I ordered an egg roll as well. The egg roll came out quickly, and the lunch special was served right when I finished that. The food was good and the dish was spicy (Kung Pao is supposed to be spicy but it never is-- not for me) and the service was polite. When the check came it was accompanied by a plate with two slices of orange and a fortune cookie. The only thing I didn't like about the visit was that there was an advertisement for a big commercial law firm on the back of the fortune slip and the "lucky number" was the phone number. I thought that was tacky. I walked out at 1:15pm. Great, quick lunch.

Nice people, good food, pleasant atmosphere: because I can never decide which is more important,…read morethey are equally important factors when rating a restaurant. Golden Hill has all three. And a lunch menu. Wow! I just gave my receipt another look and the people are nicer than I thought. I thought they were pleasant, friendly, happy we were there, concerned that we would enjoy our visit. The lunch menu offerings were each $10.95 and included eggroll OR soup, and white or vegetable fried rice. Daughter ordered the Eggplant in Garlic Sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus an appetizer order of steamed dumplings. I ordered Eggplant with Pork in Garlic sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus a small bowl of Hot and Sour Soup. The soup on the appetizer menu was $3.95. My receipt shows the server put the soup as my lunch choice and charged $2.95 for the eggroll. She never said a word, didn't point out that I could save a dollar by switching the sides around. So the people are all I thought plus kind and conscientious. Marvelous. I was delighted with everything I ate. The entree was enough for two, so supper came home with me. The eggroll was fresh and crisp and non-greasy, seemed homemade. Excellent. The eggplant was perfectly prepared and cooked, as was the pork. Delicious. The hot and sour soup was easily one of the best I've had, and I'm always looking for a great hot and sour soup. Coming from downtown Buffalo, we'd been in Williamsville because I had an appointment on Essjay Rd. Afterward, we looked for a place to have lunch before shopping. Finding Golden Hill at 4001 Sheridan Dr. in Amherst was pure serendipity. You can bet, though, that I will visit again after next appointment.
