A total disappointment! This is NOT a buffet, but a hole in the wall Chinese takeout restaurant. We drove 3 hours from Philadelphia, just to eat at their buffet; before eventually reaching western Pennsylvania. And, to make matters worse, there was no one to greet us. What a disaster! read more

This place is great! I can't speak for before they switched to just doing pickup (which is when a lot of the more negative reviews are from), but in my experience this restaurant never disappoints. They serve all the classics of Chinese-American cuisine and the dishes are consistently good and never taste old/like they've been sitting around a while; they're fresh and always hot on pickup. The pickup times are also very quick, and I can't say enough good things about the man who works up front. He always greets me and is kind, warm, and overall just a really friendly dude who will always make sure you have everything you need. Maybe it's not a culinary revelation, but as far as small-town Chinese food goes, this is absolutely the best in the area. Highly recommend! read more

They're open for take out!!! Been craving some chinese food and I'm so glad they're open during covid-19. Really like the food there, it was fresh, reasonable price and the portion was good. Tasted some of my husband's general tso chicken and the sauce was good and not crazy thick like other places so I will definitely order that next time. The front person was friendly and speaks good english - it was easy to get my order through. And for safety reasons they put a table at the door to maintain that 6 feet distance. It also makes me feel better that they're wearing mask. read more

I don't write reviews in the area often but I find this one worthy. There's some internet lore about the best Chinese food being 3/5 stars. I've never eaten here in person but I love their takeout. Their flavors are more balanced than the other options around the area. They are quick, have online ordering, and are courteous. I've eaten everything here from "Americanized" Chinese food to the more authentic flavors and they get my vote! Combo deals here are the best deals! read more

Still open for takeout during the virus outbreak so that's a plus! Server took my order with a smile and said 10 to 15 mins. I ordered the lunch special sweet and sour chicken and the lunch special shrimp in lobster sauce with an order of pork fried dumplings. It was ready in 12 minutes! Smells delicious! Tastes delicious! 9/10 would recommend to everyone! The dipping sauce for the dumplings was a bit spicy for me but I still loved it read more

I had the unpleasant experience of eating at this buffet yesterday. Wow, the food at the buffet was cold and tasted terrible. The labels describing the food were wrong and upon double checking that the won tons were cheese (as they were labeled crab and I am allergic) they were very rude. Then the one dish said it was beef but it was actually pork. For 2 adults and 2 kids I spent $40 and we all left hungry as we couldn't stomach the food. We went around 5:30 on Sunday. You would think the food would have been fresh, but it was definitely not. All I can say is terrible food and terrible service. I'd opt for Hoss's just down the road if I were you. read more

China Buffet - the outside of a chinese restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Lewistown, Pennsylvania

Best Chinese restaurant in and around Lewistown. Kind, great food and great prices! 10/10 would recommend

I always get take-out. This is my favorite ' Chinese food ' place because they have the best rice. Properly prepared rice is important to my satisfaction. The rest is top notch. An excellent meal and friendly staff keeps me returning. read more

Don't go at 3 on a Monday afternoon ... the selections were sparse and dried out. The napkin wrapped around my silverware had a piece of rice stuck to it. Egg rolls tasted stale and freezerburnt. But, a few families followed us in, and the staff did start making fresh selections. Most of the newly made items tasted good but could have been hotter. Update: The manager (?) Came over after I submitted my review and chatted with us. It was nice to hear that the restaurant is interested in diners' opinions. read more

Food was good and fresh. Waitress was hardworking and kept my glass of tea full. They severed Nestea fountain tea instead of brewed tea and they don't stock splenda sweetener. The men's room was as clean as it gets noticed that it was just moped. Was really put off by other the other review but that was back in 2013 and they are still in business so decided to give them a try. read more

I brought my father here for his birthday . The service was terrible, the buffet was bare at 7pm . I ordered coffe for my drink and they were not willing to make a pot of coffee. They would not refill anything on the buffet. What little was on the buffet was dried up. The general Tso chicken as the name tag said was in fact sweet and sour pork. Will definitely be the last time go there. read more

Good selection for a comparably decent size buffet restaurant. Good music. Clean. Good service.
