    Great Chinese food, hot fresh and ready within 10 minutes! I had the general towel combination and a bowl of hot and sour soup.

    It's hot or miss. Sometimes it is very good and sometimes it tastes like leftovers reheated. The fried rice is more like Spanish rice.

    Great service and delicious food! Large portions and always hot and fresh. Ark City is lucky to have Golden Bamboo.

    PROS: I live 45 minutes to the east, in Pawhuska so when I'm running errands in Ponca City, I…read morealways dine here. I've never been met with an unpleasant staff member. The servers are always smiling, happy and do their best to get you seated if there is a line. Why they never include a spoon with the cutlery is a bit of a mystery but I'm not going to ding them for that. They're also on top of refilling my beverage which is always a plus so 5 stars for the current wait staff. CONS: The buffet is never HOT. It's not necessarily cold either, just a little warm. The Chinese food isn't nearly as good as the Chinese buffets in Tulsa but it's still decent enough, especially the Sesame Chicken and egg rolls. I do get a kick in seeing the okra on the buffet. You would only see that at an Oklahoma Chinese restaurant. The dessert cookies are REALLY, REALLY good. Another thing: a lot of the menu items are cooked really, really bland, not enough spice & kick in them. That might also be due to them not being as warm as they should be so for overall quality of food, I'm only going to give them 3 stars out of 5. It's a shame Ponca doesn't have another Chinese buffet opening up soon if only to light a fire under Hunan's butt and inspire them to do better. It's a nice little restaurant and like I said, "decent enough" food, they just need to take things to the next level and instead of being "good," be "excellent." Maybe some day.

    I took my team here for lunch - their choice. But seriously can you go wrong with a Chinese…read moreBuffet?! I found the buffet worthy!! There were several of my favorites that I had to put on my plate; General Tso Chicken, Sesame Chicken, dumplings, & Beef & Broccoli! I did two plates just so I could fulfill all of my favorites. To end the meal had to have the ice cream & almond cookies. Not that I'll be passing through Ponca City anytime soon but this would be worth a stop in for lunch or dinner!
