If this was in Indy, it would be 3 stars: typical Chinese buffet. But it's not in Indy...it's in Seymour. Seymour is a desert, barren of all non-chain restaurants. Essentially, you can eat at Applebee's, or Applebee's with a western theme, or Applebee's with a southwest theme, or Cracker Barrel. Or fast food. On a recommendation from a resident (who is similarly disappointed in the restaurant offerings of his city), we came here. The buffet was large with lots of choices. There is a big fish tank inside the front door with comets, koi, an arowana (what?) and what appeared to be big orange cichlids. But midas cichlids coexisting peacefully with goldfish? They must be something else. There were Oreos! And gummi fruit slices (like big gum drops)! Even some little California rolls over by the salad and pudding. I essentially tried one piece of about half the items. They were all good. There's a raw area where you can create a stir-fry to be cooked on the Mongolian grill (I made a tiny one with beef and lo mein noodles). I especially liked the thin-sliced pork that was red colored and kind of sweet flavored and the chicken with broccoli. The crab rangoon had lots of crab in it, and was quite tasty. I went up for a second piece of that. The total with tax was $9.26. All 4 of us enjoyed our meal, and agreed that for less than $10 we couldn't have done any better anywhere else in town. The decor is cute too. The servers wear little Chinese silk tops and there are teapots and other "Chinese things" on display throughout. From the road, look for the Tumbleweed and Little Cesar's...it's behind those. read more

Buffet China - Loved the fried bananas! - Chinese Near Me - Seymour, Indiana

I cannot believe this place has such bad reviews. I worked in Seymour from 2006 - 2012 and it was great back then. Not sure what transpired since then but reviews are terrible up until a year ago. My wife and I ate there today (first time for me in 11 years) Just happened to be in Seymour so I suggested we try it since my wife had never eaten there. It was very good, service was very good and they had a broad selection of entrees, soups, and deserts. Roughly 16 bucks per person including drink - not so bad in todays inflationary environment!! Definitely the best Chinese buffet in 50 mile radius from Columbus. Highly recommend! read more

Was accused of skipping out on the bill because half of what we paid was taken. Asked them to go through the security footage, and they would not do so, saying that they trust their staff. I never said a staff member took it, only that someone nicked it. read more

Excellent service and the food is fantastic, lack of a salad bar and different sauces is a bummer but the food alone gets 5 stars from me! Keep up the great work! read more

I loved the service, people were great and nice, and if anything ran out on the buffet, the staff were there immediately to replace the food. The food is excellent, the people were amazing, I go here every time it's my birthday. There's even a discount for birthdays too. What can I say, it's an "eat 'til you can't eat no more" Chinese buffet. Good owners, friendly staff, great tasting food! read more

This place wasn't very good to begin with but it was the only buffet in town and since the pandemic they have started charging by weight and bc people keep going and paying their ridiculous prices they will never go back to being a buffet. The prices are way too high for low quality Chinese. You're not P.F. Changes. Will not go back until they no longer charge by weight and I don't see that happening as suckers keep paying them. Stop going to this place so they have no choice but to go back to a buffet or close down. Getting by on small town people and it's criminal. Smh read more

Perfect when I ordered take out they judged by weight once I dropped my chopsticks a nice lady came up and took mine and gave me a new pair the fortune cookies were free I love this place read more

Stopped in on way thru town. Use to have mongolian grill and sushi. Not any more. Selection was minimal and quality was fair. $18.00 for below average Chinese food was way overpriced. We will never return. read more

Desde que empezó la pandemia Está cerrado. Ya Creo no lo abrían como que les gusto así para No estar nomas limpiando. pero Bueno , era mi único buffet cerca. Así que ya no parece buffet. Te dan nomas para llevar y te echan bien poquito. read more

One of the best buffets for Chinese around.. very fresh and the staff go out of the way to help you

I almost didn't go here whhile travelled because the reviews were mediocre and no pictures of food were displayed. BOY WAS I WRONG!!!! This buffet is a hidden gem and has a lot of fresh hot choices of meats, seafood, and traditional Chinese buffet items. Talk about don't judge a book by its cover. Good job!!! read more

We went came here and the waiter asked for our drinks. My younger brith ordered a dr pepp and his friend ordered a lemonade and she asked for their age. She said to my younger brother "Your older but he is taller" and that made my brother uncomfortable. Bad waiter but the food was okay. read more

Impressive Chinese buffet! Usually pretty busy, so that there is a lot of turnover of food. With fresh food being replenished. Very friendly staff. It is good to see this buffet back in full swing following COVID. I will definitely be back. read more

This is supposed to be a buffet and it is currently all being sold by weight even though you can dine in. I am incredibly offended. This was one place left I could get what I wanted without worrying. The food has already mediocre but at least it was an operating buffet. Don't waste your time. read more

They are still making customers pay by weight, blaming it on Covid-19. Nothing special and over priced

crazy place..... buy by the pound ......say what?!? very expensive. $12 for normal $7 meal. keep driving, there are better choices. read more

Food was good, price ok... But... We was given used napkins, there was writing on one of them. GROSS! 0 STARS! read more

Buffet China - Chinese Near Me - Seymour, Indiana

my first time here i was impressed the food was good and fresh service was very good but the drinks were priced high but all in all a good clean place to dine i will go back again would have given a 5 star if not for drink prices read more

Have always enjoyed buffet China and had good service, till this past Sunday February 18th 2018, worst service ever started with wrong drinks left at table, when finally got correct drinks no straws left waited longer to be ignored to get straws, since kids cups had kids, then not one time did anyone visit table to ask how things where or if needed anything else. Nothing till check left on table. Sorry service like this gets no tip. At checkout counter not even ask how things where, just pay and leave we don't appreciate your business! read more

Buffet China - tables and chairs in a restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Seymour, Indiana

Given all the current events, they do a good job with a large menu in a very small market. I ordered the hot and sour soup. Not hot enough and not sour enough. To be fair, I did takeout. The Mushu pork is passable but the po ping are folded and hard to get ready to eat without tearing them. The shrimp fried rice is a bit bland but enough sauce hides many weaknesses. I'll go back! read more

Worst chinese food I've ever eaten. I've been eating chinese for 65 years, never had any this bad. Totally tasteless. Shame on this place.

Not bad but not really special. Price was around $12 and I think they charge extra for drinks (I usually drink water). Plenty of variety but my biggest complaint would be the lack of flavor. The stir fry shrimp seems to be popular, they also have butterfly shrimp, the cold "peel yourself" kind, crawfish and a bit of sushi. There was a type of fresh bar where they grill for you but I didn't try it. Most of the rest is standard Chinese restaurant fare and for some reason pizza. I did enjoy the cakes for dessert (cream puffs were delicious). If you're from the Midwest (is Indiana the Midwest?) and don't know any better, you'll probably enjoy it. And I'm sure I'll return if ever stuck at the TA again. read more

Bruh the food slaps. Would be my last meal on death row. It's better than love itself. I'm pretty basic tbh. I like the bomb noodles from the hibachi grill. Put some broccoli and "chicken" with it and you got yourself a slapped dinner. The peeps are pretty nice. The only thing that is clapped is the weird dumplings. But other than that food absolutely slaps. read more

Haven't had this place since COVID and it is still delicious! Called in an order and it was ready in 20 minutes. Super hot, fresh, and the price wasn't bad at all. read more

So far this is my favorite Chinese buffet here in Seymour, IN. Lots of selections for every type of eater in your family. Food quality was good. Price was family affordable. Staff was friendly and helpful. read more

Really love the food always fresh always good nice friendly service would eat there everyday if I could

My favorite place for Chinese food. It is by far the BEST place. The selections are fresh and they always keep things full on the buffet. Everything is always fresh. They also have a few American food items too. Lots of different types of shrimp as well. Good price for all you get. Over all it's very good. read more

We come to Buffet China at least once a month, sometimes more. Today must have been a bad day for the cook. I say that because I saw a few dishes that were burned. The noodles I usually get were not good, a little scorched and oily looking. The green beans were shriveled. The shrimp dish had tons of pepper on it, so unnecessary. Most of the dishes were not even hot. The cook who does the personal cooking on the special grill would not even talk when you talked to him. This is not typical. Something was amiss. We will go back and hope things improve. The waitstaff were their usual sweet selves. read more

Best chinese buffet I've ever been too. I wish they had one in San Diego... I truly miss this place. Get the General Tso's chicken I swear it's the best you will ever have. Also they do crab rangoon better than anyone. Order pepsi. you'll see why. :) read more

When my friends and family want to eat Chinese food, we automatically go to Buffet China. The food is always delicious, and on the weekends they have a Pepper Shrimp that is to die for. The buffet itself is top notch; everything I've tried is excellent and they keep it full. The service is generally very good as well, drinks are almost always filled quickly. If you like sushi, this isn't the greatest, but it's good for what you pay. Sometimes they just don't make enough of it however. Lots of desserts too, but I never have room for those! read more

Slighty below average at best. I've driven well over a million miles and tried many Chinese buffets and this one is pretty mundane. I generally stick to chicken and basic fare like crab rangoon, egg rolls, etc. if you just want to get full for your money I guess it will do. But if you desire quality food and clean smelling restrooms, I'd look elsewhere, read more

They got rid of the mongolian BBQ. Wtf.. It was the main reason I always wanted to go there!

Ok k for the buffet but the grill is really good. They check on you plenty. Drinks are kept filled and the wait staff is friendly.

Very good fresh food great selection hard ice cream for dessert which was really good. the service was really wonderful to and you can't beat the price. So glad that we stopped at this place passing through to Nashville. I would highly recommend it if you like Chinese food and if you're like me and are kind of picky about the buffets you go to. read more

Eating at the restaurant itself is peaceful and amazing but being able to walk in and get food today is 10times better! The food is rarely disappointing! I love love love buffet China! read more

I give this 4 stars, as there was food that actually had spice and flavor. Bloomington has maybe a dozen chinese buffets, none of them are as good as this place. I have been here before, Yesterday we had a party of 17. Everyone satisfied. Mongolian Chicken had a kick as did spicy chicken. 11 bucks a person is good price for above average buffet in my opinion... read more
