It's a Chinese buffet. It's nothing special but it's fine. The service was good, but it's a buffet so the server is you. The atmosphere was what you would expect. It's nothing great, but it's not bad. If you want a cheap buffet with slightly cold food, this is your place. read more

Diamond Head Restaurant - a woman sitting at a table - Chinese Near Me - West Plains, Missouri

The food is usually old and me and my daughter got food poison and went to the ER and was diagnosed with food poisoning. Called and told the owner and she said if we don't like the food just don't come back!!! read more

This is my favorite place to eat in west plains! Great service, great food! I will admit there has been a time or two where 1 dish might have been on the buffet for a while, but to be expected every now and then for a buffet. read more

Me and my 2 other friends decided to get lunch here we ordered a side of fried rice, beef and broccoli lunch, and cashew chicken lunch. Everything was fine till mid way of us sitting and eating,my friend who got the beef and broccoli noticed a piece of hair in her food from farther examination, we found several pieces of hair within her meal. There's literally like 3 hairs holding up a piece of broccoli wtf diamond head, we called up there and the lady on the phone kept questioning us. And was rude we told her we don't have a way back up there and she said she could do anything about it. read more

Diamond Head Restaurant - 3 pieces of hair holding up the broccoli - Chinese Near Me - West Plains, Missouri

So, I moved to Kansas City in the last days of 2011 and was aghast to find that Springfield Cashew Chicken in its original sense doesn't exist there! What they call "cashew chicken" is tragically bad. That being said, anytime I come back to West Plains, I literally cannot wait to get Cashew Chicken at Diamond Head. And not only is the food good enough to pine over more than 500 miles away, but when visiting tonight, Shauna, who has served me more times than I can even attempt to recall, remembered us, our drink choices, and to bring chop sticks without being asked even though we haven't eaten there for over 2 years. I love this place! read more

Diamond Head Restaurant - a plate of chinese food - Chinese Near Me - West Plains, Missouri

Amazing service food was fresh and amazing, the window girl was so sweet and kind, I loved it. We orders cashew Chicken,Crab Rangoon,Honey Chicken, etc and everything was great no complaints read more

This place was horrible !! As a vegan the options were so few I left starving. The spring rolls had meat , the sushi had chopped chicken ( I thought it was tofu) !!! We just had iced water but it tasted horrible !! So bad we could not drink it !! Will never go again read more

I've gotten food from here two times recently. Service was alright. The first time I got food there was less chicken and not spicy for General Tso's Chicken. However the second time the next day, they added only a couple more pieces of chicken when I came back through and added more sauce. That's one thing they improved on is understanding a customer's needs and tastebuds. read more

Terrible service shorted my order refused to make right and over charge my card and told me that it just accidentally happens sometimes call my bank to fix it that they would not fix it read more

Its ok for buffet style Chinese food. Big variety for lunch about 15-20 different toppings, two styles of rice, two types of soups, big desert spread with ice cream. read more

Diamond Head Restaurant - a plate of food with rice and broccoli - Chinese Near Me - West Plains, Missouri

See all

A bit disappointing, even in the context of a typical midwestern Americanized Chinese buffet. 4 rows of buffet stations, 1 of those just for dessert. Not a lot of variety in "traditional" buffet dishes like Bourbon chicken and steak, honey chicken, and general tso's chicken. Lots of southern dishes like fried okra, fish, and chicken, roast beef, garlic bread, frog legs. Sushi for some reason? All the food was very sweet, as if lots of sugar used in the sauces. Rice was dry and a bit flavorless. I was looking forward to some good American Chinese but I won't be back. read more

So I give this place 3 stars ...The only reason I do not go any higher is that it's really your typical chinese buffet. So our experience here was very pleasant. The food was fresh and tasty. The servers where very friendly and on top of our drinks. The place was clean and the prices for a family of three where very reasonable. We ate for 20 dollars. I would def go here again when money is tight and we still want to eat out. read more

Nothing I can eat here, unless it's leaves of iceberg lettuce. I'm not a rabbit. I am allergic to wheat and most Chinese buffets have some reasonable options. This one doesn't. It's not very good for vegetarians either. It's a bit smaller than most. Looks like lots of nice grease though read more

So I normally order the same thing and it's always good. Today I switched it up, got shrimp with lobster sauce for lunch. Horrible. It's runny, watery, pretty much inedible. I guess I'll go hungry today. I won't make this mistake again read more

1. Music is terrible, absolutely terrible. When I walk into a "Chinese restaurant" the last thing I'm expecting to hear is the crap they played while we ate. The only saving grace during our time here was that the music stopped (likely because it was the end of the CD track). 2. Food selection can only be described as paltry, at best. The other Chinese restaurants here honestly have a better selection. 3. My very first plate from the buffet line I managed to grab, not one, but two, rock-hard food items that caused me to wonder if I had broken one of my back molars as I bit into it. 4. The "pepsi" fridge placed at the entryway that's used for the storage of milk and other kitchen items. 5. With this being a buffet that doesn't provide knives to the diners, the cooks in the back seem to have no idea that buffet food should be cut into bite sized seeing that some items are near impossible to cut into smaller pieces. I've honestly never been into a Chinese buffet that's left me this disappointed for having failed in so many simple yet key areas. Conclusion: Would NOT come again even if you paid me. I'm amazed that this place is still open given how disappointing our visit was. read more

Once upon a time we ate here a lot, then the former owners sold out. Whenever I came into town after that I'd go to either of the other two Chinese places in town, but this visit I thought I'd try Diamond Head again. We ordered take out once and it was fine. Tonight, however, the customer service (or lack thereof) really put a dimmer on the experience. My Mother ordered for four, my sister went out to pick it up. When she got home we discovered that there was no steamed rice with my entree (the Dragon & Phoenix). I called out there and was told that it was essentially our fault, since we had ordered during a rush. I asked, nicely, if I could possibly get an upgrade to a larger steamed rice (it comes with a small) since we had to make two trips due to their mistake. The young woman informed me that I would -not- be given "free food" just because they had left something out of my order. I said that I was pretty upset by that, and without any attempt at customer service she told me (hatefully) that she was very sorry, and she could only do what her bosses let her do. I said fine and I'd be out to get my small rice. The phone rang again almost immediately with someone (possibly the manager?) being hostile to my mother on the phone. I took the phone and was informed that I had "cussed out" the waitress. I did no such thing (and had two witnesses), but the woman on the phone said yes, I had, because the waitress would "never lie about being cussed out". I informed them that I would not be out for my rice, nor would I be back, to which the woman yelled "FINE" and slammed down the phone. The food was decent, but not fabulous, so I have absolutely no trouble taking my business to Chen's Garden or King Garden Buffet. read more

My family and I have eaten here more than I would like to admit, but never again. We got lunch through the drive through today. As I was eating my eggroll, I noticed the pork inside of it was raw! I called the restaurant and the lady who answered the phone was really rude with me. I asked to speak to the manager. She said there wasn't a manager there. I asked who was in charge. She said the owner was and asked why I was calling. I told her the situation, and I was keeping my cool and being kind. When she hands the phone off to the owner, she says, "There's a b**ch on the line whining about an eggroll." The owner was very polite, trying to offer me something in return for my terrible experience. I politely declined because we will no longer give this business our money. The only reason I called was so they could be sure to check the other eggrolls. read more

I LOVE Diamond Head . Everything is Fresh and Good！And the service was so good and the remodel is so pretty especially the chandeliers！My waiteress is so nice her name is Annie！I will come back！ read more

Moved here from Colorado, not impressed at all with Springfield's Chinese restaurants, so this was a very welcome relief. Not saying it's the best ever, but it's the best I've had in the year of living in the Ozarks and frankly, stacked up nicely with Colorado's best. read more

I ate here for lunch. I was happy with the food and service. The buffet was extremely big with all the different varieties of Chinese food, along with a big salad bar. The service was friendly and quick on drink refills. The price was very reasonable. The one knock I had was some of the foods temperature was not as hot as I would have liked! I would defeat here again! read more

I was staying at the hotel next to the restaurant and I called over to place my order and they asked me when I wanted it to be ready. I said in about 10 minutes. I walked over about 10 minutes later and it was ready. I ordered the Kung Po Chicken with Crab Rangoon. The portion was more than enough. My only complaint was that I ordered it extra spicy and it came out rather mild. read more

Good place good food fast drinks they have coasters and desserts. Would recommend to anyone except picky eaters or fast food fanatics.

I grew up near China Town in San Francisco. I have been to China several times. I have eaten REAL AUTHENTIC CHINESE FOOD MY WHOLE LIFE. I recently ordered Moo Shu Pork from this restaurant. when I got home I noticed that the MOST important part wasn't included, the Plum/Hoisen Sauce. I called... "There's no sauce that comes with it!" Um, Yeah, it does! Then I got "Oh, we cooked it in the sauce. " No you didn't! That sauce has a very distinct taste and there was none. I had ordered it there before and had recieved the sauce both other times I had ordered it... this time I got attitude! read more
