We ordered from the Lunch Special menu, which was from 11AM to 3PM everyday. The entrees came with Soup of the Day, Egg Roll, and either Steamed Rice, Pork Fried Rice, or Chicken Chow Mein. We ordered the Chicken with Snow Peas with Steamed Rice for $11.75, Vegetable Bean Curd with Steamed Rice for $11.55, and Beef with Oyster Sauce with Chicken Chow Mein for $12.55. The Soup of the Day was Hot & Sour Soup. The soup was really good, delicious, and not spicy at all. The Egg Rolls were crispy and too oily. The dipping sauce for the egg rolls was good. All the dishes were descent, but way too salty. We were told you can request the dishes to be light on the salt. We wouldn't mind returning next time as the flavors were good, but we would request the dishes be less salty.

The restaurant closes 9 PM and we were lucky enough to reach before that as we entered. The ambience was amazing. The hotel was quite big enough and the sitting area was also very pretty. Me and my daughter and my husband selected up place. We ordered a dinner plate unknowing of the fact both the quantity of the food and as we were hungry enough so we ordered one plate of kung pao chicken, which comes with egg drop soup and one egg roll along with a plate of half chicken needles, half pork fried rice or boiled rice, optional along with the compound chicken and we ordered another plate of sweet-and-sour chicken along with the same combination of fried rice or white rice and half chicken noodles along with a soup and one roll and my daughter ordered a plate of chicken noodle noodles. The food was served within five minutes and seeing the quantity we got scared because it was huge. I would recommend you if you are with a kid or if you are three people please go for two plates as it's really huge amount of quantity we couldn't finish it at all. We had to box it and when we really ordered three box Ambience was really quiet. And I really like the service as they were gentle and friendly.

There are plenty of parking in this shopping center. The restaurant is very clean and airy, quite a huge place. The price is very reasonable for all the foods that they have. There is everything for any taste, it's like the Newark Buffet near our home. We got the senior discount automatically which was nice, enough for 2 drinks. The soup bar is excellent, seafood soup, hot and sour, wonton soup they're all good. The sushi bar has all the pre-made sushi which are ok. Every buffet, I would try every dish a little to see what I like, I did like the chicken wings, the scallops, salt and pepper shrimps, actually, all the fried dishes are great, hot and tasty. The hot foods come out very quickly as soon as the trays look low on food. I tried all the soups and they're quite delicious. The service is very attentive and quick for a buffet restaurant, everyone is quite pleasant. The dessert and salad bar are plentiful with fresh produce, jello and I love the almond cookies and coffee cakes. It was a hearty meal for us after a long day hiking in the Burney Falls loop. We'll stop by here next time we're in this area, definitely.

To pay him back I asked him where he wanted to go for lunch, he said that Chinese buffet. OK, I know what place he's talkin about, the Grand Buffet, On Hilltop Drive just off the 5 off of East Cypress exit. East to find and lots of parking. Looks like it's been over 2 years since I was here. The price for lunch now is $17 bucks plus tax and some tip. We get there and the place looks about the same as the last time I was here. They have these big Koi fish that seem to be an attraction near the front. We get seated and drink orders taken. We got here close to opening at 11 am. so all the food was nice and fresh and hot. Don't get here half hour before closing and expect there to be all hot fresh food, it ain't gonna happen. Some of the things I love here are those ribs! Yeah, Chinese can make so damn good ribs! Not Texas style though. Chicken wings are another of my fave here. My friend went wild and ate a ton of food, all kinds of noodles, ribs and wings. I pretty much skipped the carbs and filled up with shrimp, wings and ribs. They even have french fries if you want! Service is the usual just clear the plates and fill the drinks with minimal conversation. I gotta remember this place is here!

Restaurant serving Chinese and Thai food [Weaverville CA]…read more The restaurant is located across the street from the Joss House State Historical Park in Weaverville. We decided to have a late lunch here. The hostess/server said that we could sit anywhere. There was actually three different seating areas in which one was reserved for a large group. After browsing through the menu I decided to have the Mongolian Beef combo. It came with fried rice, chow mein, and an egg roll. I didn't like how the beef was cooked... not the same as I've had it elsewhere. It was still good, just not the seared crispy coating on the steak. My meal came with a choice of Hot & Sour soup or Egg Flower. I chose the latter. Hubby had the Pad Se Ew w/ tofu. He liked it a lot. Customer service was great. The interior had some of its original aesthetics like the red brick walls. Outside I noticed a plaque stating that it was a historic building originally the Pacific Brewery, one of four gold rush breweries in Weaverville. The building was built in 1855, it has been used and renovated/converted into different businesses over time and finally remodeled into a restaurant in the early 1970's. wow that's cool!
