Just dropped by to eat with my family, and the food here was awesome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was nice and quiet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was not bothering us, which I personally liked, but she still came over whenever we needed something. read more

Another visit on a Sunday at 11:30 am. Got busier as the day went on, but not so busy you can't get to the bars. Staff keep everything fresh & clean, remove dirty plates as you finish & check the buffet frequently. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have updated the interior with a new front counter, fresh paint & cleaned the interior well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Friendly staff & really good food for an inexpensive buffet. I do recommend- a lot of options & on Sunday's they have small, but tasty crawfish & muscles. read more

Affordable prices, friendly staff, and consistently hot food that just keeps coming. The service was quick, and the trays stayed stocked, which is exactly what you want from an all-you-can-eat spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Yes, the place is a bit dated and could use a refresh, and the buffet layout felt a little cramped and awkward -- but honestly, none of that took away from the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came for quick, cheap, and satisfying food, and they absolutely delivered. No complaints here. read more

You have go during the rush time during lunch and dinner because the food is hot and fresh and there is a quick turnover for all of it. If you go during when business is slow, the food is going to sit. I recently went to another Asian buffet in Tucker and there was no comparison! China Buffet seasons their food well and they don't skimp on ingredients. Although they only have four small buffet bars, the food is way better than a lot of larger places that have more options. The staff is friendly and they take care of you. Going back today for lunch because I was so disappointed by the Sweet Cherry Buffet in Tucker. You can find my review for them in my profile. read more

very reasonable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]clean atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] food constantly replenished. variety of entrees to choose. water is nasty to me. not sure how anyone drinks it. read more

Don't sleep on this neighborhood spot! We tried it just because we saw it as we were driving by and it was the right choice! Everything absolutely delicious and fresh. The service was great and they kept the buffet refilled with hot food! 100% will come back! read more

There is not an extensive selection on the buffet but the food is okay. The servers do collect plates and refill drinks in a decent manner. Also, if you're in doubt if a fresh rotation of food is coming out, you can also ask the staff and they will inform the cooks. The price point for the buffet is not that bad. There isn't a big difference as far as what is on the menu for lunch and what is on the menu for dinner (I believe catfish and crawfish is the only new additions) with that being said, if you are able to, dine for lunch. Better bang for your buck. But the crawfish are delish if you want to pay the extra $3-$4 and dine during dinner hours. read more

I really like this place. The food is good and the service is friendly. My Chinese wife likes it too. My favorite is the peanut chicken which might be an American/Chinese dish but is still good comfort food. The taro cake was also really good. read more

Visiting the area for few days. Found this buffet close to the hotel. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cozy little buffet![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not a huge collection of food! Very similar to other Chinese buffet. Friendly Staff! But I should say, one of the best Crawfish boiled dishes I have tried in a while. Great southern seasoning! read more

I didn't mind the buffet. My boyfriend didn't like it at all. I found some items we're dry and hard to chew. I would go back. It's a typical Chinese buffet. If you want good Chinese food fast and hot. It works. read more

We ate there a week ago food not warm didn't change the food we both got sick had bad diarrhea afterwards

This might look like your regular Chinese restaurant but their buffet is A star. The food is always served hot and fresh. The staff is friendly and attentive. The price is reasonable, for the variety of items in the buffet. Their Hot and sour food is like a warm hug in a cup. They have ample of indoor seating both booths and tables. They offer reusable tableware and forks or chopsticks. They also offer to go or dine in. It is a well lit and casual restaurant. There ample of free parking in the plaza and this place is good for groups or simply dining alone. I highly recommend them! read more

Your usual Chinese food. Be careful as the per pound price can escalate quickly. But overall the food is as expected read more

Very good. Simple and inexpensive. Not allot of options but this place is good to stop in and have a decent meal. People working there are nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The building is alittle out dated but that is okay![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Food was good to me a few days ago when I ate there. I'm critical when it comes to Buffet Style Chinese. The only meat I eat is seafood so I was pleasantly surprised to see multiple options available. Everything was kool.... read more

when I was a kid my grandfather would drag the Chan Clan (my aunts, uncles, cousins) to various Chinese buffets and then because of our sheer number we could quickly sample all the foods and then mercilessly critique all of them. we would all be judged on how much we "got our money's worth" which meant number of empty crustacean or bivalve shells. how does this story relate? well Grandpa would love China Buffet and that's impressive. there would be plenty of shrimp shells (3 kinds) and mussels in actual black bean sauce for the discards. the aunties would approve of the crispness of the veggies and freshness of the meats. the uncles would be thrilled at the array of desserts and appetizers. little kid me and my cousins would be stoked about the help-yourself ice cream treats freezer. and Grandpa? he'd be nodding happily, saying "yes good food nice service, very worthwhile" while secretly stuffing his blazer pockets with the sesame taro cakes. tl;dr: this place is straight legit. my Chinese mom takes her newly-immigrated Chinese friends here and they love it. top value. super fresh everything. service is outstanding. easy free parking. only caveat: it's an AYCE buffet so if you do takeout don't complain about portion size/freshness; they're doing the best they can with that takeout box but that's not what they're cooking for! leave your house and come get it fresh if you can! read more

They have been around 20 years and not much has changed. Their buffet is more quality than quantity. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I always feel relaxed and welcome there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The booths are very comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Nice people too. read more

The food was really good for how much it was. The service was amazing and they gave me everything I asked for before asking. read more

Ok, I'm updating my previous 1 star review. This is my favorite Chinese buffet east of Atlanta and I really like most of their food so I returned. Basic food, but good and affordable. The employees aren't the friendliest but no one comes here for the atmosphere. read more

Terrible overall and we will definitely not be back. Bad food. Not one thing we tasted from the buffet was good. Also.. Rude staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cafeteria ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Issa no from me. read more

My take-out order on 6/17/23 was mostly good. The crab rangoon and the pork fried rice were both very good. The sweet and sour chicken was a big portion and fine; unfortunately, there were only a few slices of peppers and onions. We tried the boneless honey ribs for the first time, and it was a big disappointment. It was so tough and chewy that we only ate two "strips." The order was ready exactly when they promised, so that was nice. We will return, but we will stick to the dishes that we know are good. read more

Ok, I gave a 4-star review six months ago after just a couple of visits. I have been back a number of times now and need to update my initial take: To me, China Buffet is two different restaurants - one at lunch and another at dinner. The difference is in the selections offered. Both lunch and dinner feature the same soups and appetizers, and both feature green beans as a standalone veggie and broccoli in some stir-fry or other. The hot and sour soup is very good. The potstickers are good if they're freshly placed on the steam table; otherwise they can be dry and charred on the bottom. The veggies are very good. PLEASE NOTE that dinner is $4 more than lunch. Lunch - 5 stars!!! Awesome American Chinese food. Some of my favorite selections include: Tofu with veggies, delicious!! Mongolian pork - AWESOME Peanut chicken - AWESOME Hunan chicken - super!!! Every time I have been for lunch the food has been hot and fresh. Dinner - 2 1/2 stars I suppose the big deal about dinner, and what makes it cost an extra 4$, is that it features seafood. But hey, it's just very ordinary, average seafood, and just about EVERYTHING on the dinner menu is batter-fried. You know - the usual crunchy fried uninteresting stuff. Fried shrimp, fried fish, several different kinds of fried chicken chunks in some sauce or not, etc. It's not bad but just not very good. They do have some black bean mussels that are pretty darn good but I can't make a meal off two plates full of mussels. I tried some teriyaki chicken - not fried but tough, dry, basically inedible, I mean BAD. There is NOTHING except maybe the mussels that I feel ok about recommending. Again, most of it is ok, just really really unexciting. And you are paying $4 more than you would pay for the really good lunch. I suppose it's a matter of taste; if you LOVE fried food - the sweet/sour chicken, the General Tso (I can't spell that) chicken, the whatever-fried chicken and lots of fried seafood, then you'll probably like the dinner at China Buffet. I can't often get to CB at lunchtime; I wish I could. And I probably won't go again for dinner because a few times is enough, way enough. Go for lunch if you can!!! read more

This is my favorite place for basic Chinese lunch and has been for many years. The service is very fast and attentive. Reasonable price. The people who work there, many for years, are like family almost. The variety suits me. read more

Good quality of food not many option but the meat is worth it. Cheapest buffet in Atlanta area. $14 per person no matter what day. Service is amazing. They treat me like royalty.

I recommend you come here if you're in the mood for a Chinese buffet read more

Never disappoints. Great food and happy with the pricing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My only complaint is that it can be busy at lunch and spacing may be limited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We entered on a weekend around 2:30 PM and we were shocked to see the restaurant about 2/3 full. We considered this a good sign and we were right. I think this buffet is the best one we've been to in Atlanta. All of the items tasted very fresh and the service was good. It wasn't the biggest selection but in comparison to a large buffet where about 1/3 of the items are good literally about 95% were good. The items actually had flavor. Our faves were the vegetarian dish with bok choy and the salt and pepper shrimp.- - the lo mein was good too. Anyway, I would recommend this place definitely. A Chinese buffet with freshness and flavor. Tough to beat. read more

Food was alright. Service was not too bad. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the atmosphere was pretty good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Price was a little too much. But otherwise was ok. read more

China Buffet - or as my friends and I call it "The College Student Savior". This place has been here for years and for good reason at that. It's a $6.90 lunch buffet and like $9ish for dinner. How that alone didn't get you to stop reading and already in there I don't know... This isn't Vegas. Nor is it a $30 buffet. So it's not fancy. But what it is is mostly clean, the food is fresh and changed out the moment it looks bad. The service is active - you won't be long without a drink or anything else you need. The selection is nice, the food is cheap. And it's the only Chinese buffet in Decatur. What do you have to lose? read more

There are some really great tasting items here, and the atmosphere is quiet. Will be returning

This is actually my third visit to this buffet, primarily because my grandparents like going. They don't have a lot of selection on the buffet but it is a nice selection including sushi. They also have ice cream cups and I think popsicles that are included in your buffet price. And the ladies who work the restaurant move pretty quickly in clearing your used dishes from the tables. they walk around continually and clean them pretty quickly. The cracked pepper shrimp is especially good. read more

Charged me for the dinner buffet when I did not have one thing off the dinner buffet, lost a 17-year customer. Will never go back.

Been going here since 05, especially in my college days. Food is consistently good. Not a large buffet but what they have are good food choices. I especially like the garlic buttery fried shrimp! Price is right, about 12 bucks for all you can eat and drink. Plenty of parking., service is ok. Try it out. Still good food after all these years! read more

China Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Looking at some of the other reviews...I dont think you can come a place like this expecting 5 star food and service. With $6.90 lunch buffet, options and qualities are not too bad. Favorites include their soups, egg foo young, pot stickers, crab rangoons, and lo mein noodles. It's pretty similar for dinner. Service is better than most Chinese buffets. I would not come back on a weekday at 12pm due to the crowds. Since I was by myself, I ended up at a shared table sitting pretty close to other customers. Lunch hour is just too chaotic, but I'll be back another time! read more

China Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

This business decided to charge more per pound for to-go food because I had dumplings In my container. I was a regular customer, basically buying the same food several times a week. I have no idea if they tried to rip me off other times, but clearly we're charging me more and, after I confronted the cashier, told me it was because I purchased dumplings. There's no sign stating that they are more expensive. read more

The food here was terrible nothing tasted good and for the buffet to be $14 tax $17 it should be better. This was my first and last time going here would not recommend, even our drinks had stuff in it as if the cups weren't cleaned well enough ... read more
