This is the worst service and food I've ever had at a Chinese buffet. I'm not a picky eater but everything I had there was horrible. The food was cold. They started emptying the food 45 minutes before they closed. We asked for a discount because of the food being cold, closing early and poor service. They gave us $3 off of our bill. I will never eat here again. On top of all that we got sick off of the food. read more

I'm writing to save you so money. My husband and I went to for dinner over an hour before closing time and were extremely disappointed. Over half the items were empty and the ones that were there had a spoonful left. Not one item we ate was warm/ hot. I could forgive all that if they had the basics, but they didn't. The food we were actually able to eat was not good at all. I had a salad, something you would think is hard to screw up, not here. The lettuce was completely drowned in water. They did have a Mongolian BBQ station for you however, it was already cleaned and this was not an option for us. Maybe it would be better earlier but I can't imagine by much. read more

I have been coming here for YEARS! I loved this place- until a few months ago. The prices have gone up, the service and food have gone down. I had a coworker mention that she and her entire family got violently ill after eating here. I figured it must have been some weird thing they all ate that I normally don't. I had already almost quit going because of the rude snowbirds who frequent the place during the winter and the quality of food going downhill, but because my husband loves it we went back. Most expensive Chinese food I have ever had- cost me a $300 copay for an ER visit. I didn't even make it home before I was curled in the fetal position with severe stomach cramps. Three hours later I was in the emergency room dehydrated and sicker than I have ever been in my life. I thought it wasn't possible a toxin could act that fast but the ER doc assured me that the very toxins flowing through my bloodstream can act in a matter of minutes within consuming the food. I didn't eat anything raw (no sushi, no salad bar, not even the dessert area). I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary for me either. All I do know is that more than 72 hours later I am still sick and will never return again. read more

very typical Asian buffet. Standard selection and food taste is fine. Nothing really to write home about but ok food.

The worst food in town their food was disgusting the ice cram tasted like cold paste with vanilla and they add a 20% charge if you waste food. At $13.50 per person I thought the food would at least be good and fresh. Never eating there again read more

Dined here with a party of 7 on 2/6/16. I was served a soda with a raffle ticket floating in it. The cup had obviously not been cleaned. The waitress got me another cup, but acted like it wasn't a big deal. Several of the food trays were empty and not filled fast enough for the very busy restaurant. We asked them to divide our check into 3 groups. One couple used a 15% off coupon. The waitress was extremely rude and followed us up to the checkout to make sure no other discounts were applied, including denying the 2nd couple from even getting the advertised 10% senior discount. Overall, dirty restaurant, mediocre food, and rude wait staff. read more

It really is a shame because I've been going to this restaurant since it opened many many years ago and I have always received pretty fair customer service. Today was the worst customer service I have ever received in my entire life. I'm not the kind of person that goes on line to post reviews and stuff like that but this was so insulting that I felt the need to do so. My wife and kids were looking for a good day out and we decided to visit the Chinese restaurant that we used to visit so often in the past since we moved further away we rarely go there anymore. The first issue was when my family and I walked in there is a sign that says "please wait to be seated" so we waited and waited and waited for almost 10 minutes all the while our soon to be server and the manager we're having a lighthearted conversation about who knows what nearly 15 feet away, she looked in our direction four or five times and chose not to acknowledge us. I finally got to the point where I realized we were not to get any service so I decided to seat myself and my family we sat in the nearest booth and it took another five minutes for the server to come over and ask what we would like to drink, no apologies for the wait was offered. I got a water because they do not have Diet Coke here and proceeded to get my food we have three kids under the age of five with us and already unloaded them from the car and decided that the service couldn't get worse and decided to stay. After I had finished a small plate of food my water had run empty I told my wife that the server has already passed by four times without acknowledgement and when she passes again stop her and ask her to refill my glass. I went and got my food and when I returned still no water so I went to the manager to air my grievance. The manager then turned and yelled at the server who then took my glass and instead of going to fill it she then had a conversation with her manager by the cash register. When she put my cup down and forgot about it that's when I lost it. I told the manager that my family and I were leaving and we would never be returning and proceeded to walk out the door the server then tried to give me my check and I said I am not paying you people as I am now forced to take my family to McDonald's so that they can have a decent meal. on another note the food was mostly burnt or tasted burnt and old. I have never been treated so poorly in my entire life and I will never be returning to the restaurant. Diner beware!! read more

Horrible food, no flavor, got stomach sick after don't go here this location is already known for people going to the ER after eating here not a good place To bring your kids or family, friends. read more

I ate at this place for the first time and OMG! I seriously cannot see how anyone can give this place a good review. I walked in and no one acknowledged our existence. 3 women were standing there and did not even look up or say hello. We ate there anyways after finally getting a seat. The buffet food was horrible! All of the meat dishes were gross regardless of what it was. It didn't even look like meat. The chicken, the BBQ, the roast beef (very rubbery), and even the fish was gross. After the first sample plate I decided to eat only the vegetables and that too did not have flavor. The spring rolls were bad and the ice cream was even bad. How can you mess up on serving decent ice cream? Ok... There is also a sign that they have up that says " 20% fee for anyone that wastes food". I don't waste food but I guess you have to do what you have to do. All of the employees there seemed pissed off and no one smiled at all. It was just not a place that has any respect and I felt that could care less if we came back. So with that being said- I do not recommend anyone eating here. I really hate writing bad reviews but I am only stating the facts here. read more

The servers are so unfriendly (seriously) here and the soda is always flat, tea is instant and cloudy. If you want sushi you have to find someone that will make it and they are not in a hurry. The owners wife hangs out talking with the waitresses and lets her kids run around. My son loved this place for some reason so I have been more times than I care. Now we have found a better place down the street off Signal Butte :) read more

Save your money! Dirty... Food was gross. Nothing was fresh! First time here. The cook was sitting behind us on his phone playing games. They were out of the basics like white rice, lo mein noodles, spring rolls, beef and broccoli and a few other things. The orange chicken and sesame chicken tasted the same. Also... my son had their sweet and sour chicken and he said the red sauce had no taste. It was 7:30 when we got there so I expected the food would be reasonably good, they are open until 10 p.m. It was $45 for the three of us. I would not even consider giving this place a second try. I have read a few of the other reviews and it is hard to believe we are speaking of the same place. read more

Sushi was sub par wasn't the best didn't taste super fresh rice was very moist and didn't even move. The food on the other hand was great a lot of choices and interesting foods. read more

My family and I have gone to the restaurant for many years--Ever since it opened. The food has always been good, the service is always great, and it is always clean. However, this past week I went for lunch (around noon). I noticed most of my items, which contained orange chicken, sesame chicken, and coconut shrimp, we're all cold. I didn't say anything cause I figured that it was maybe just a few pieces...until my girlfriend asked me if my food was cold as well. I have never had this problem here at China City. My food is always warm and delicious. Maybe just a bad day, or bad timing in the day with not enough people?? Review would've been 5 stars as normal if the food wasn't so cold :/ Sushi was good as always though! read more

I started with the coconut shrimp...delicious and it all went down hill from there. I tried the Orange Chicken and it was really dry, then the BBQ beef and it was one step from being rotten. Then I tried the egg roll and it had been cooked in rancid oil. It totally ruined my appetite and I did not eat anything else. My son continued to eat but tonight it is throwing up and has diarrhea. I told the cashier about the food and she told me she would take 50% off my bill and handed it to another employee when then charged me full price and when I did not add a tip to it scolded me for not leaving a tip to a server who only too one plate away. I will never return to China City. I gave it two stars because the coconut shrimp was very good. read more

I have visidted this resturant 2x this week!! Both lunch service and dinner service were marvelouis. Of course lunch is cheaper m-th. Great service too. Fresh food!!! read more

This place is fantastic for someone like me and my boyfriend. We are suuuuper hungry, not trying to spend a fortune on apps and entrees and dessert, and we wanna be in and out on our time. The staff is quick and friendly and the food is honestly outstanding for a Chinese buffet. We truly enjoy coming here, definitely a hole in the wall type feel since Power and Baseline isn't a very visually pleasing area, pretty dang boring. Lastly, they have great hours of operation! read more

First let me say, I've been to many many buffets in my life. For the price they charge I wasn't expecting too much, but I was very wrong. Had almost all my favorites, I didn't have to camp out by the crab area! At most places you have those certain people (you know who you are) that take ALL crab as soon as it comes out. This place kept it well stocked. I'm almost finished with my rant. Just come and try, I think you'll leave very pleased. read more

Went on a Sun night for crab legs about 7:30 pm when there were any they were so waterlogged and flavorless it was not worth waiting for! For me most of the food was just BAD everything was lukewarm at best if not cold. Anything that was hot-ish was only from sitting on the bottom of the steam pan way to long getting so over cooked it could not be chewed. Now I should say that I'm in the food biz and own a vending & catering company so I might be a little more picky then others? Also my wife is from China and will eat most anything (like squid) "yuck" but wile eating the squid she actually spit it out on the table. Also said the the Sushi was near frozen. She called a waitress over and after BA,BA,BA, in Chinese she told me (in english) she was told that's how sushi is served there. The only thing worse then the food was the smell in the filthy bathroom!!! read more

Great buffet with a great selection and prices. I have been to several buffets around the valley and this one holds it's water. It's hit or miss with restaurant reviews solely because these whiny beaches think they are someone, and if they go into a place and have a bad experience they have to post it. Beaches. read more

Went here for the first time and had a good experience. They were very busy on a Wednesday night, which is always a good sign. The restaurant was very clean and the servers were johnny-on-the-spot and friendly. Lots of good, basic oriental food, clearly labeled and very plentiful in gleaming steam tables. Fresh sushi, a mongolian BBQ-type area, salad bar and wide variety of desserts. I got hot green tea for my beverage and was very pleased that it was strong, authentic and organic (I'm kind of a tea aficionado so I can tell.) The only sort of negative thing I can say was that some of the hot food was very hot but some of it was not so much. However, it was turning over so fast that it wasn't sitting around for very long, so I wasn't too worried about it. They charge just $10.99 for adults at dinner and I probably ate $20 worth of sushi alone, so I'd say it was a pretty good value. I will be going back. read more

Place is still awesome. I just got back here from Las Vegas and had perfectly cooked Chinese food this place is just as good with A whole lot more food! read more

I have visited this place four years during Christmas. The food was good the first two years, and has been getting worse. The menu price states prices for the week $11.99, Friday & Saturday $ 12.99, and Sun & Holiday $12.99. This year 2016 they had a sign inside for $13.99. They cannot even follow their own menu on prices stated in the place and on the website. This is not right. The food has gone downhill, and they are charging more than the listed price. Just say no at the door. I found something better this year. read more

Awesome food at great prices. Go to this place all the time. The staff is very nice as well. Best buffet in the state and best Chinese buffet ever!!!! read more

Today was my first time at this buffet. I had been looking for a good Chinese buffet for awhile. Since I am not from the area I didnt know where to look. A friend recommended China City and it was well worth the trip. My visit was on a Friday about 1:00. The food was all fresh and they were constantly filling up the pans. There is a very large variety of food choices and it was all very well flavored. It even has a sushi bar although I am not a fan of sushi. I would definately come back here again. During the week the price was 8.95 and I noticed that weekends it goes up to 12.95, but with the large amount of choices it is not overpriced. I was pleased with my eating experience here. read more

The food was absolutely terrible our waitress took money from us me and my sister went back down they refused to give us the money back I highly suggest not coming here the WORST FOOD EVER!!! My sister had the sushi she said it was awful I also had multiple different various of food which was awful and then afterwords I got sick!! read more

I went today for first time. Sat quickly, waited 15 minutes for water and sodas. Most of the food was barely warm, apple pie dough not cooked enough, shushi was ok, fried chicken good, crispy and hot. Noodles cold, deserts inimpressive, waitress never came by to ask if we needed anything, to busy chatting with each other. Didn't see any noodle-vegetable-meat combos. Broccoli by itself, chicken by itself, pork by itself, cold noodles by their self, etc. Could've used some Mongolian Beef or Chicken, Moo Goo Gai Pan, Pepper Steak, etc. They did have Snow Crab but they aren't worth the work. The Spring rolls were great. Sunday (today) was $12.50 a person, drink extra. Probably will not return. read more

Today I visited your great restaurant and may I say wow!! From the moment I drove by I was hooked, the letters on your building cannot be missed. After walking in, I was addicted, the restaurant is very grand, and clean what mainly caught my eye was the breathtaking chandelier hanging over me. I served myself orange chicken and none of it was cold and having the perfect amount of sauce and crisp, the chicken was tender and crunchy. Although, everything was great I would recommend hiring waiters, cooks, and waitresses who could speak english a little better so they could understand me and I can understand them. Overall however, the hospitality was great, the food was perfect, and the cleanliness was spot-on. I was very impressed with this restaurant and I would gladly recommend it to a friend and also attend this restaurant again sometime. read more

Great deal for the $12 ! The only problem is with the crab legs, They will only refill the tray after 30 mins. Most times they are so waterlogged all the taste is gone. If you dont care about cran you will like it read more

This used to be my favorite restaurant. I brought my kids here constantly because they loved the crableggs. I always paid with my card and at the receptionists desk. This time my waitress said I could pay at the table. I pulled out a $5 and a $20 and she turned to leave. Then she came back and showed me $6 saying I only paid her six. I told her I was positive I gave you $25 but she insisted $6. Being trusting I looked opened my wallet and pulled out another $20. I could not shake the feeling I was being hustled so in my car I counted my money. I was short $20. I went back in and tried to explain to the hostess. She yelled at the girl who uelled back and tjen they started yelling at me. Soon three people were saying that I gave her $6. I was horrified. I am an honest person. This really bothered me. I tried to explain that I knew I gave her a 20 first time but no one would believe me. I left furious. The food was good as always, and I have loved it here in the past, but I will never return! If you eat here, make sure you pay with a card! read more

The food is pretty good.... but the service is RUDE AS HELL!! I've been here several times now, and the servers will stand right next to your table when you finish eating and legit stare at you until you leave!! It's the craziest thing... one time, they even pushed my 78 year old grandpa out of the way when we got up from our table just so they could hurry and clean it- highly uncalled for. If we ask them a simple question, they will stare into your face unblinking and just say "NO". Today, they even told us to pick up our change from the table and keep it.... it's like, you can't make us take leftover change with us if we don't want to.....?? You can definitely tell they just want your money from you and then for you to get the hell out as fast as possible! It's so bizarre and rude and makes me not want to go there again and put my family through that again. 2 big thumbs down for the rudest service ever encountered in my life!!! read more

We went there last nite, 3/7/13, the time was approx 630 and there were lots of cars so thought we would try it. We were seated promptly but that is where the service stopped. As we entered, there was a young lady talking on her phone while sweeping the floor. I thought this unusual. We were instructed to help ourselves. I went a checked out the selection and all of the food appeared to be stale and old. I asked the fry cook if he could make beef and pea pods with beef sauce and he didn't understand a word I said. So I followed the instruction and informed him teriaki sauce and when he was done it was just beef, pea pods and no sauce of any kind. I tried the sweet and sour shrimp and the shrimp was tough and chewey. I then tried the fried rice and it was cold. Meanwhile the girl was still on the phone and was just walking around. My friend had a variety of dishes and had the same experience. Not once did a server come by and ask how it was or needing a refill on drinks. But the bill came and to my surprise it was astronomical for the quality of the food and service, the amount was $27.77. I could have steak and potatoes for that price. When I asked about the girl on the phone, which was approx 45 minutes after we entered, the hostess said it was the owners daughter . . makes sense. read more

Worst dining experience I have ever had. Food was okay, a little over-greasy. Service was terrible! The waitress gave us our check after we had only been there for about ten minutes which made us feel rushed and took away my drink, not to return it afterwards. We watched another waitress spray Windex on a window right over someone eating, and saw one of the chefs empty a grease trap over their stir fry stove and just pour and dig grease out, it was a terrible site to see while eating. We were there three hours before closing and the staff was cleaning like it was past closing hours, we even watched a waitress climb on top of the ice cream machine to start dusting/cleaning it. Worst part of the night is a waitress grabbed my six month old daughter and run off with her to show the other waitresses without even asking my permission to touch her! Very dissatisfied. Felt queasy after dinner as well. Will never return or recommend to any of my friends/family. read more

Normally this place is my choice buffet place to go for chinese food. Although i went there last night 4 hours before close and first of all when i walked in there was no one at the stand to greet me and one person behind the register that acted as if i never walked in. Whe i finally got my food everything was rather dry and lacking flavor i only came across one item that was fresh like it just got refilled. Everything else that i saw on there food line seemed to have been sitting under the heat lamps for a while and they wernt even that busy. There were 4 familys max in there at the time and when i asked them if they could cook some fresh chicken they acted like i was insulting them. Disqusted by my experiance i left after barley finishing one plate. When i got to the register to pay i informed them of my dislike in the visit and explained that this wad my favorite place to come usually they aplologized and offered a 10 percent discount wich anyone can get offline on a daily bases. So needless to say i was offended especially after i found out they were originally over chargeing me anyways so the discount would have put me back at original price. Then when i went to leave they gave me a coupon for next time and acted like it was a special one when you can get the same one out of any newspaper. Overall there customer service skills are crap and therefood was disgusting also they had many random kids of someone who worked there running all over the place being loud and obnoxious i was not impressed will not go back and wouldnt recommend it read more
