    We go here for the seafoods and sushi. Been here a couple of times now. Service is alright and people are generally just doing their job as you would expect in an All-You-Can-Eat place. The kids enjoy the ice cream.

    You should stay away from this restaurant for a number of reasons. The first reason is that the food is not authentic. The restaurant is managed by Asians but all the food is cooked by Mexicans. During lunch time, loud Tejano music was blasting in the restaurant from a cheap radio at the sushi counter. Sorry but the ambiance sucks. The food is horrible. Observation...when a Chinese restaurant doesn't have Asian customers, that's usually a red flag. No matter what time I've visited in the past, the meat for many of the chicken dishes came from bad parts (gristles, etc.), is old, and covered with heavy sauce to mask the problems. I've also noticed that the cashiers will cheat you if they suspect you're not paying attention. I was upset that I was charged for a tip the last time I was there. Especially since I had take out and on the copy I signed for, I made sure that I didn't offer one. I saw the problem once I got home. Although I wasn't happy, I figured I'd give the restaurant one last time a few months later. The results? The food was even worst and a different cashier charged me with dinner prices even though it was early lunch time. After being cheated twice, I'm guessing this isn't an accident and I don't have the patients to argue over a few dollars. I highly suggest you avoid this place.

    I was craving Asian buffet for a long while, and they cravings were definitely satisfied at China Buffet. It was super busy, and a little chaotic, hinting at this place's popularity among the locals. We had a lot from salad, to fried chicken, wanton, fish, sushi, and more. Most, if not all, of the foods were at the right temperature (warm or cold). The savoury dishes were great, but the deserts were surprisingly pretty good too. We really enjoyed the whole meal.

    Come hungry, China buffet does not joke around when it comes to buffets. The variety of dishes was impressive, with a mix of classic favorites like sesame Chicken, Mongolian Beef, chicken and broccoli, alongside seafood options like flounder, clams and crawfish just to name a few. The dessert selections were mediocre. The flavors were typical of buffets like this, as not everything was a winner and some dishes were not seasoned well and some dishes were only luke warm. The staff replenished the food quickly when they were running low. One of the highlights was the made-to-order stir-fry and soup noodle station, where you can customize your own dish with a wide range of vegetables and proteins. There was also a limited sushi selection which was surprisingly good for a buffet. The service was great and they cleared used plates quickly, and drinks were refilled without needing to ask. Now for the price you pay either for lunch or dinner, the value is unbeatable.

    The restaurant is very clean, and the servers are extremely attentive. For me, the options were not as fresh or tasty as I would expect, and as I've experienced that other Asian buffets in the area. The sushi options, even considering the fact that it is a Chinese buffet rather than a Japanese buffet, were still extremely limited. Every single option was imitation crab, with no options for fresh real seafood. The General Tso's chicken was just OK as were the egg rolls - just tough overcooked or over fried pieces. I wasn't terribly impressed with the chicken wings, but they weren't bad. Overall, I felt that it was a bit overpriced for what I got.

    I love going here if I'm craving for seafood and real crabs. I also love their sesame balls and ice cream. Wide selection of food items. You'll get your money's worth if you know what to splurge on eating in a buffet restaurant. Aside from the usual Chinese food, they have sushi, hibachi, fruit and salad bar, soup, etc. Service is good. Staff by the sushi bar are super friendly. Plenty of tables and can accommodate a big group. You can also order takeout food which you pay by the pound. Come hungry!

    I came here recently with my wife to get lunch and upon entering greeted by a friendly and professional staff member immediately brought us to our table. The entire restaurant was very clean tables and chairs. The food was all fresh and a great variety of items available. Hot food, cold salad bar and dessert. My favorites were the sesame, chicken, Korean chicken, yellow vegetable fried rice . Everything tasted great and was not bland. They also have a variety of sushi which was obviously made fresh and tasted very good. The guy making the sushi was very friendly upon entering that area and asked if we had any questions about anything. Exiting the restaurant we had a thank you from the hostess on our way out. China buffet is a hidden gem tucked away on big tree way. I would highly recommend!

    We were staying at the nearby Fairfield Inn when we noticed all the cars at China Buffet and decided to try it out. The intricately carved cork artwork in China Buffet could easily be overlooked if you were really hungry and focused on the food. I liked that there was a nice mix of people and noticeably 3-4 tables of Asian customers. The food was a nice mix of Chinese-American options, Sushi, and Mongolian BBQ style grill. I was pleasantly surprised by some very Chinese dishes that I didn't expect to see at a Chinese buffet. I liked that there was a buffet attendant that monitored the food that was out. My hubby was impressed by the big white rice cooker that he had to take a picture of it.

    I had been craving multiple types of Chinese food, so I decided to pick up a friend and go to a chinese buffet. I felt overwhelmed by the number of people once we walked in and should have left right then. We stayed, though, and were seated quickly. It is lovely decor, but that was all the ambiance I could enjoy. Trying to get food felt like it was an Olympic sport, dodging kids and trying to get the good seafood before it was gone. It was an impossible task. People piled multiple plates at once with crab legs, leaving the rest of us with sad, salty, little leftover pieces. Everything was dirty and in disarray. I felt bad for the staff. It felt like they had given up trying to keep things clean or replace food, dishes, and silverware, and i don't blame them. Most of the food looked steaming hot, but by the time you doged and weaved your way back to the table, it was ice cold and soggy. The only good things were the hibachi rice and the butter shrimp. However, I will say I did not make a plate of raw food to be cooked like some others did, and I should have because everything else was just disappointing. This is why I have left three stars instead of one. Because they do have a fresh food option, but I felt too overwhelmed to make it and wait for my food to be cooked in the midst of the hustle and bustle. I just wanted to get out of there. I have not been to a buffet in at least 3 years, and now I remember why. I won't be back. I'd rather have more limited food options and pay a bit more for some peace and quiet and fresh food.

    My husband and I have a quarterly date night at this place- he LOVES the squid salad. I am not one for seafood, but I enjoy the hibachi bar. It's a great way to balance out the Chinese food! I don't know about you, but Chinese food can feel a little heavy. The hibachi bar is a great way to add some fresh veggies to the meal and balance it out. But of course, I had to finish dinner with a small plate of desert. The service is quick and the prices are reasonable for having a buffet, sushi bar, and hibachi bar. I only wish the buffet was a little bigger.

    About to grab some Chinese food with my lovely better half!

    Been looking for a good Japanese cuisine restaurant in the Winston-Salem area after moving back…read morefrom Hawaii and we found a great one. Located in the same shopping center as Walmart on E. Hanes Mill Rd, this gem is housed in the same spot where the Hwy 55 burger joint was (I sure miss them). Parking is shared with other area merchants, and since it's quite a distance from Walmart's entrance, finding a space is not a problem. The restaurant is well-lit, comfortable and clean. We were promptly greeted and shown to a table. The menu had a great selection of ramen, bento, and sushi. While I was leaning towards sushi, I opted for the chicken katsu bento. The food came out quickly and I was pleasantly surprised at the portion size. Definitely a good value in my opinion. The only disappointment was their take on fried rice, which seemed more like a dirty rice you would get at Popeye's. Honestly, I think white rice would have been a better pairing for this dish. Great service throughout our visit and we're keeping this one on the short list.

We've been talking about it again and again, but just never seem to find the time. This past week, while both my wife and I were off work for vacation, we took advantage and went for a lunch date, and it was just as tasty as we had remember it to be! We arrived at around 12:30 on a Thursday, and were seated promptly. As a starter we got the Tempura Veggie plate, which didn't take long, and was delicious. We both got our own lunch special ($11.95), I got it with the LA Roll, basically a deep fried California roll with some cream cheese in it as well. I got mine with the "Cooked sushi set", which came with (1) shrimp, (1) crab, (1) tamago, (1) tofu, and (1) avocado. It also came with soup AND salad. Talk about a deal! This is probably the best lunch deal in the Triad! Everything was absolutely delicious, and the portions were amazingly generous. We left there beyond stuffed, but very happy with our meal and experience! Staff were very friendly, and checked on us throughout, bringing us refills before our drinks got empty. Service was quick, we were fed and on our way in no time. I'd absolutely recommend this spot to anyone coming to the Greensboro area, I don't have one bad thing to say. Go check them out and enjoy a delicious meal!

To top it off, the place has a great atmosphere. I can see this becoming a "spot" for sure. The miso soup, gyoza, and cheese rangoons are fantastic starters. The gyoza was pan-seared for that perfect crunch and made with plenty of filling. The crab Rangoons were crispy, golden, and packed with creamy flavor. The sushi? Solid. The tuna nigiri was fantastic and practically melted in my mouth. I'd say the shrimp nigiri was good too. Both had great rice with the perfect texture. Also the hibachi fried rice is excellent, though I preferred beef over chicken with it. The highlights of the night were the specialty rolls. The Snow White sushi roll is satisfying with a lot of flavor in one bite. The Tiger roll was also stacked and made beautifully.
