    hot plate, cold plate
    Saba

    I mean it's a chinese buffet. Went out of conscience with a bunch of family, but was pretty mid as expected. There was a hibachi station where you could choose meats like thin beef, chicken, and pork, along with veggies, spices, and sauces. It was nice since i wanted to get my protein up without all the oil lol. Now I don't know if the meats are very fresh, but the station was cold so that's good. The hot foods I had were also pretty good and warm for buffet. My favorite was the pan fried dumplings, but again not the best obviously. In regards to the sushi, I didn't even wanna touch the raw nigiri for my own safety; salmon had no visible fat lines, and tuna didn't look appetizing at all, almost grey. I got some pieces of the rolls, unagi, and inari and those were actually better than i expected. The rolls are pretty close to tokyo one in plano, or osaka in addison. The inari was nice and sweet, but the unagi was kind of just getting carried by the sauce lol. Service wasn't the best, got one refill the entire time, and was fasting that day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is decently clean and nothing to really complain about there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall for a big easy family outing, not bad, but would not eat here again myself

    the food was alright. the wonton soup was not very good. the purple cake was yummy. service fast.

    Couldn't decide which soup to get so why not both.

    I come here to eat all the seafood I can eat. Clams, shrimp, soft shell crab, crawfish and some baby octopus looking things. It all tasted good to me. My favorites are the shrimp and clams. Very flavorful. I also enjoy their egg drop soup. Friendly service except for The guy working at the Mongolian station. He doesn't talk or smile. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Parking lot can get pretty full but there are still a lot of seatings in the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I believe Saturday night is probably one of their most busiest time of the week so be prepare to wait for a table.

    A plate of dry mess.

    We will never eat here again. Food was so dry we couldn't even choke it down. The lady checking us out peeked in our box of to go food. Apparently we had 7 shrimp in the box which is now considered a mix plate for an up charge, so they weighed the plate at a higher cost due to the shrimp, which is located within all the dishes. They won't get my money again.

    The hot and sour soup is usually very good. The chocolate fountain is entertaining. The crab Rangoons are good.

    I found Hot Spots Eat Fresh after looking around for spots nearby that searched for General Tso's…read morechicken. This is one of my favorite dishes. This restaurant had high reviews, the food pics look good, so I said why not give it a try? I placed a pick up order online from their website and parked and went inside to get my food. I did notice they do have a drive through and curbside pick up. Inside was pretty spacious and it had a few people eating around lunch time on a weekday. My food was ready when I went to get it, which was awesome. General Tso's chicken was very delicious. The piece of chicken meat was fresh and tasty and good pieces, but the tough and chewy parts of the chicken. The flavor was good, not too sweet or spicy. However I wish they had broccoli included. The rice was steamed food and tastes as you would expect white rice from a Chinese restaurant to taste like, bland to mild flavor (It's white rice). I definitely would recommend this spot and you should try them out too. I know I'll be back!

    I've ordered through uber eats frozen Hot Spots Eat Fresh. Honestly one of the main reasons I tried…read morethis spot was because of the reviews on Yelp. I got the wonton soup, chicken wing, combo fried rice, lo mein, and chicken egg rolls. The wonton soup and combo fried rice were the stars of the show.

    I wasn't planning to write a review, but this place left such a bad taste in my mouth (pun…read moreintended) that I still get angry thinking about it. In March 2019, my dad and I both became extremely ill after eating here. I woke up at 3 a.m. with a very high fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. I was sick for hours and continued dealing with nausea for nearly five days. We both ended up in the ER, and I required IV fluids and monitoring. It was, without question, the sickest I have ever been. I reported this restaurant to city code, and the health department was there within an hour of my complaint. Below is the report from the health department: "Anonymous, Our inspection of the New China King Buffet did not go well, and the restaurant has been closed until it can come up to basic health standards. In short, the kitchen needs a thorough cleaning, temperature rules were not being obeyed, and practices within the kitchen were not up to modern standards. Again, I am sorry that you and your family became ill, but I do appreciate you taking the time to inform us of the problem. Please let me know if there is anything more that I can provide you. Respectfully, Kevin Cummings | Chief Health Inspector Department of Development Services | Consumer Health Division" What concerns me even more is that the restaurant appeared to reopen almost immediately. I'm not sure how that process works, but it was surprising given the severity of the violations. When I later filed a BBB complaint, the restaurant responded with claims that I showed up the next day to argue with them. That is completely false. I didn't leave my house for a week for being so ill. They also suggested only my dad was affected, which is also untrue--we were both seriously ill. This makes me question whether there were other incidents they may be confusing this with. They even threatened legal action over my review, which I find unreasonable. Customers have every right to share their honest experiences. Based on what happened to us and the pattern of reviews since, I would strongly urge others to be cautious when eating here.
