For the price and sooo many options- absolutely not bad at all. Just choose what you like and no one is forcing you to try everything. The hibachi where the guy stir fries your fresh food - cannot beat that!!!!! Please tip them! The service is good and cannot complain. Kids loved the desserts with an ice cream fridge. A lot happy customers celebrating bdays too. Excellent spot! read more

Always good always fresh! We really never go wrong with going here for lunch. Very good service people. We appreciate you. You have no idea or then again maybe you do. read more

I have been here twice for dinner in the past 45 days. Both times I experienced friendly staff, decent variety of food on the buffet ( not everything was served at the proper temperatures) and extremely reasonable prices. read more

I give this place 3.6. Nothing beats NY chinese food, Philly NJ comes close. for the allentown area this is probably the best buffet they have. I go there for the stir fry station. place is expensive for an entire family, but that's just the economy we live in. I will be going back just for the stir fry which my kids also like. If they could do a better job w/ the food quality on the buffet as everything tastes frozen & not fresh i would give this place. but this is still the best place in the allentown area. read more

Atmosphere is clean and cozy. Without a doubt an upgrade from the Flaming Grill Chinese buffet on grape street in Whitehall, PA. That place is awful. This buffet has a good variety with above average tasting chinese food. I found the prices a bit high especially without including a drink. Is it worth the money? Probably not. Better tasting chinese food from a menu elsewhere but perhaps fun on occasion. read more

SKIP IT. It used to be ok. I've been here a couple of times through the years. But now, ewww... NOTHING tastes good. I mean NOTHING. They must have a different chef now who does not care at all. Sorry, but I pass. read more

Horrible, waitress was okay. Got the clams and as soon as I ate it my stomach started to hurt. Gourmet? more like poor made I think they get the clams from the Lehigh river also gave me a fortune cookie with no fortune do not recommend read more

The worst service I've ever experienced. Made a reservation 2 weeks prior. Reservation was set for 4:30pm. Long story short, we ended up leaving at 7pm without being served. They took our drink orders which took 30 minutes to get. Finally took our food orders, brought out appetizers and we sat there till 6:45 waiting for our food to come out. After speaking to the manager, who was quite rude, and explaining to her we had been waiting over 2 hrs, her solution was telling us they can box the food if we wanted to leave. We had people from out of town with us for my daughter's graduation. It was truly embarrassing. Needless to say, we declined the boxed food insult and decided to leave. But not before they made sure we paid for our drinks and appetizers. They surrounded us as if we were planning to dine and dash. I'm disgusted we were treated this way and I will NEVER go back there again. read more

My family has been going here for years. We like the fact that they are open on holidays when other places are closed. We feel that it is usually better than others in the Lehigh Valley. I will admit we went here for dinner and a few times it seemed that the food wasn't as good as usual but still 95% of the time it was great. I tell everyone who likes Chinese Buffets to try it and let me know how they liked it. read more

I have been going here a few years. The service is always great, the waiters are great, the hot ooblong tea is the best, I love the sushi selection is awesome. Its always clean when we go, and bathrooms are kept clean as well. Food is kept up with too, always on top of refilling them when half full or almost empty. read more

Incredibly rude. We were a party of 8, sat less than an hour and tipped over $50 and the waitress and other staff were still rude as hell, she literally snatched my 2 year old plate of food out from in front of her which made her cry.... One guest from our party paid for the meal and another was to tip and did tip in cash, that waitress took the $20 off of the table and told us to leave and took my daughters dessert bowl from in front of her while she was still eating as well. We got up to leave and she said "bye get out" I told her she was rude. She started to yell about the tip and I told them they were tipped $20 at the table and an additional $30 cash at the register after harassing another member of our group so for $50 what is the problem. She then brought me the receipt with no tip which was correct because they tipped cash which the waitress didn't realize we knew, then she tried to give me back the $20 from the table and then the $30 from the tip left in cash at the register. I refused the money and told her it's not about money it's about basic respect and that all she needed to do was apologize to my child for taking food away from her, which of course she refused and told me to take the money which I didn't. I'm sure they were waiting for me to be disrespected of ignorant like them but no luck for them. I guess they like to create diversions and scam large parties out of their money, weirdo behavior. So if you like your children having food snatched from them mid bite and a lesson on how grown adults can't take accountability go here. read more

Absolutely delicious, ypu should try the stringbeans, and the rice. They have great chicken, and many allergy friendly options. (coming from someone with celiac disease) I only wish the best upon this business. And the drinks come out really fast! read more

There were 9 of us there to eat at the Gourmet Buffet on Hamilton Blvd and were treated horribly by 3 of the workers over a few shrimp that supposedly was on the dinner menu that NO one told us about. They told us there were papers stating dinner only which there was not. We told them we were sorry and they continued to treat us badly. We will not go back again read more

I thought the food was very good and fresh. I was there for lunch and had a variety of dishes. Will definitely go back.

I'd give this a zero if I could, butter and some food was rancid, when the manager was told, he didn't do anything about it, when I told him I wasn't going to pay (as I only ate a few bites and lost my appetite, )he said it was just me,that no one else complained and told me to leave and never come back!unbelievable! Years ago it was a good place with quality food, sad to say, not anymore, stay away ! read more

This is one of the better quality Chinese Buffets in Lehigh Valley. They have decent selection of protein & vegetable dishes, vegetables, fried & steamed rice, noodles, fish and other proteins, salad bar, sushi, hibachi, fresh fruit, appetizers, soups, desserts. read more

ehhh....its alright. I've definitely had better. The food can be better. Theres actually Chinese restaraunts with better food. But its all you can eat so what more can you ask for? read more

Buffet, seltzer, tip = $20. Very few places where you can get that much sushi at that level for that cheap. Nothing I had was the best of this or the best of that. However everything was pretty good. The rib tips were way over cooked but I kinda liked it that way. I assume it's because it was sitting under heat lamps for a long time. The Sushi is really good. The wasabi that goes with it not so much. It very liquified. Almost like water was added. The egg rolls and the sweet and sour chicken were my favorite take aways. It's hard not to over eat at a place like this. It's also hard for me to not feel queazy from eating too many different types. If you're into buffet this place will hit the spot. read more

Everything you would expect from a Chinese American buffet can be found here. Nothing bad but nothing exceptional. On the plus side, they offer a design your own plate that will be cooked hibachi style so you'll get exactly what you choose. Reasonable choice of protein, vegetables and noodles. There is a good choice of prepared entrees; a Sushi bar and dessert bar. Service was very good. The dining area was clean and well appointed. A decent offering for the price. read more

Some dishes don't have any flavor, like the fried calamari, butter shrimp etc. The sweet and sour sauce was perfect for the chicken. The oysters and mussels taste like the ocean. Cocktail shrimps had the vein. Salad bar was ok! Sushi was stale. I wouldn't get those. The one I like best is the hibachi! It was great! Service and ambiance was ok. read more

I liked this place, a lot of interesting and delicious foods. Just didn't like sushi. They weren't fresh I believe. read more

Gourmet Buffet & Grill - All eaten - Buffets Near Me - Allentown, Pennsylvania

The food was over cooked. The help kept coming out and stirred the food to make it look fresh. The food was probably days old. Even the iced tea taste lousy. I felt sick after eating at this location wouldn't suggest it to anybody. read more

As a professional competitive eater and YouTuber who reviews mainly buffets I was thoroughly impressed with my lunch here. I ate there on a Sunday right when they opened and you could tell all of the food was freshly made. All the items filled the serving dishes. Sometimes you will see some dishes half empty when a buffet opens as that is the food leftover from the day before, but not here. My friend and I enjoyed over 29 lbs of food, yes you read that correctly. Even with all of that we still did not touch at least 2/3 of the buffet and none of the hibachi. Their selection is so big that it will take at least 3 - 4 more visits for me to try everything. There is something for everyone, you will not be disappointed. As far as buffets in a 60 mile radius, this is right there at the top. If you want to see what the buffet looks like, you can see the video here. https://youtu.be/J-3mQJ6BmDA read more

I wish I d have to put a star to post a review because they don't even deserve the one star. My niece wound up with a candy wrapper in her sushi. we only had about 3 pieces of sushi and a half of a crab. they still charged us full price. I will never eat here again. they were rude and condescending when handing the situation. read more

A wee bit hard to find, especially if you come in from Cedar Crest: It is nearest to Hamilton Blvd Eastbound, there is a section of the shopping center that wraps around behind the main section. If you come in from Hamilton Blvd Eastbound make the FIRST LEFT before the buildings. Coming in from any other entrance go toward the Hampton Blvd Eastbound exit and turn RIGHT at what appears to be the end of the building... you'll find the extra row of storefronts. Food was at least average, fresh, and there was a vast selection even at lunch during the week. read more

For what you pay, this is an amazing value! Food was good- average, but can't complain since it's all you can eat. Service was friendly. The tables and buffet are clean and well maintained. This is a new favorite spot of mine. Again, very good value. Per person I think it was between $14-18, I can't remember exactly what it was. read more

Nihao to all Pennsylvania visitors and residents alike. Come one come all to the best buffet off exit 66. The spot has everything you could dream of for your buffet experience. Highlights include mini strawberry mousse cubes, hibachi style meals cooked right in front of your eyes, smiley faced toilets (men's room only. Sorry ladies.) and koi fish. A true delight for all. Service was wonderful, prices were excellent and cups and plates unbreakable. read more

Food is always very good and fresh. Best buffet in the Lehigh Valley. They keep the place clean to

I got sick from eating here. 1 hours later I was throwing up crazy and Will not return back to this place.

Just been there from a trip, nice buffet, nice And yammy food, clean restaurant and restroom, nice and kind staff

There was an almost constant line for the Mongolian BBQ/grill so that tells you it is good! We will try that next time, but stuck to the buffet this trip. read more

Wish they had crab legs like at other buffets but overall good selection available and food is kept refilled and warm. The hibachi grill is nice for noodles. Servers are also friendly. read more

Kind of a bizarre experience. We walked in and waited to be taken to a table. At the time someone started to take us back and another waitress ran up screaming and crying and our girl left us standing there in between where we started and our table while three of them stood there screaming at each other. Finally the girl came back to us and apologized and seated us. Ok, so weird start. The food was not bad. Nothing to write home about. Everything was lukewarm or almost cold in temperature. At one point we needed a drink refill and it wasn't until the very end that we were able to get that. No one checks up on you. Overall my comment would be ...needs improvement. Very busy place that needs more attentive workers. I feel that may be the solution. If you don't care it shows. read more

I was there this evening 4/24/21. I walked in and was handed a pair of gloves, no explanation so I asked if we must wear them at the buffet. I should have been told what they were for. Waitress was terrible. If you can't speak to me, I consider that rude. Everything on the buffet was cold and dried out Fried shrimp was dry, gravy had a skin over it and burnt. Mashed potatoes were old and dried out. Half the pans were near empty. They evidently had the buffet items out since they opened today. This was the WORST meal I have had in my lifetime. The staff doesn't speak to you and when I spoke to the cashier about this all he could say was sorry. So I paid $16.00 to eat 6 cooked shrimp, unbelievable. I will never do business with this place again. read more

on Father's Day the waitress said there's a special going on. Would not accept a coupon I had, ended up paying a lot more than my expectation. Food was of mediocre quality, not impressed ! read more

Me and my boyfriend came here for dinner on a friday night. I have not been to a buffet in awhile and I will say they got a variety of food. I was surprised by their sushi. Usually buffet's sushi is plain and boring, but they actually had deep fried sushi rolls. Even though they don't taste as good as the restaurant quality sushi, I was still pretty content with their sushi selection. The only disappointment I have is I was hoping to see crab legs and more fresh fruit, but they don't have any. Anyway, overall I like this place and will probably come back again. read more

I've been to many buffets lately and this one was the cleanest by far. The bathrooms were even clean! They had a large variety of food even for lunch. Would definitely recommend!! read more

If you go to eat at this buffet & grill they won't accept American Express card and they are very rude.

For years I loved going here and always loved the hibachi. But the last two times I've come here the younger guy on the grill has screwed it up. Last time before today I asked for teriyaki sauce and he put garlic all over it and ruined it. The. Today same thing asked for teriyaki and this time he didn't put anything on.... And it wasn't even busy today I was the only one in line. I probably will not return here because this dude can't follow instructions. read more
