After visiting a family friend we decided to grab…read moresome lunch) As I walked into the establishment I first noticed the small yet unique assortment of canned drinks ranging anywhere from herbal tea to canned soy milk and sodas. Secondly it was a very quiet place with barely anyone talking other than staff who were quick to take our drink orders and to give refills. Food however was absolutely loaded with MSG to the point of which I only could finish one plate of food, taste, texture and warmth of the food where also less than satisfactory. All the food was bland, was oddly textured and worst of all cold! I left bloated, unsatisfied and saddened that I couldn't just hop in a time machine and eat somewhere different instead.

If I could give it zero stars I would. Food was not kept at hot enough temperatures on the buffet…read moresteam tables. Some items were only room temperature. Very minimal food selections and not the best tasting Chinese food I've had. It was overpriced for what you got. The place seemed a little rundown and dingy. We won't go back.

This place is so new that it doesn't even exist on Google yet! It's in the old Ponderosa building,…read moreonly now it's exclusively a buffet. We stopped in for lunch to give it a try. It's about $15 per person, and that doesn't include a drink (I think drinks were like $3). Lunch does not appear to be any cheaper than dinner. I would have given 4 stars if it weren't for the price; I think that was quite steep for what we got. I think just including drinks would go a long way to make this price point a little better. The salad bar was pretty extensive, including toppings like radishes and cottage cheese with assorted fruits. There was a build-your-own pasta station that I didn't get a chance to try, and then lots of your standard American foods- pork chops, (tiny!) ribs, mac and cheese (which was actually amazing), two types of green beans, etc. Everything was decent but not great except the mac n cheese. Then the dessert table was pretty great- I loved the bread pudding! There were lots of choices, including staples like cheesecake and brownies, but also more interesting choices like orange Fanta pudding. All in all, I would absolutely return if the price lowered just a bit, but otherwise I'll stick to the casino when looking for a buffet- it's more expensive, but definitely higher quality.

I expected a lot more from this place I can definitely see they are trying to make fresher food…read morethen the old ponderosa the salad bar looked like everything was real fresh so that was good the desert bar was the same old same ole with the exception of the root beer float (bonus) but the hot buffet was almost exactly the same as the old ponderosa except they had way I mean way way better wings they were real and real good to so if they keep that up I will be going back for sure . And oh yea it wasn't too expensive with tip two of us ate for $40 we tipped pretty good tho.

I'd say this is a pretty good bang for your buck for some Chinese food compared to getting takeout which is super expensive and not always the best bet up here in Traverse City.

Called in order for Mongolian Beef, Shrimp and pea pods entrees, egg roll, and sizzling rice soup. The entrees were good as expected. The sizzling rice soup was disappointing, no crispy rice at all, just a big glop of soggy rice in broth with hardly any shrimp or veggies.

There was an option for crab legs ($20 extra) and you could tell some cooks to make a bowl of pasta. What made this bad was quality and quantity. If there had been more options or better quality, it would've been nice. Cakes were hard on the outside, pie was just canned pie filling with a premade crust cracker, Mexican foods were dry and rank below store bought premade. Service was good- for the single waitress working at dinner time. She was stressed and struggling. Ambiance was fine. It was clean and looked like it was a better quality place than it was. Overall, it's probably a fine place to eat if you're drunk and having fun, but don't go out of your way to eat here.

Saturday's buffet menu is advertised as American BBQ. Friday's menu features crab legs and prime rib and costs $49.99. We went on a Thursday, and the menu was advertised as "international cuisine from Asia, Italy, and South America ". The actual food selection was general tso's chicken, orange chicken, egg rolls, crab Rangoon, Korean tofu and vegetables, chicken tikka Marsala, beef tamales, build your own tacos and nachos, a salad bar, a made to order pasta station, and desserts. The food ranged from mediocre to terrible, with the best choices being the pasta station, the salad bar, and the banana pudding. Our server did a good job of taking away dishes and keeping drinks filled. I honestly couldn't recommend the Thursday buffet. Maybe Friday and Saturday nights are better?
