OK, so, about once every year the wife and I get duped by a spread of wondrous photography in the clipper coupon magazines and joyfully venture out to some random buffet restaurant with visions of finding the most amazing hidden gem ever. This always ends badly, and this trip was no exception. Either we (a) aren't that bright and can't remember one year to the next, (b) are way too forgiving and optimistic, or (c) this is our way of making certain we are current on our hepatitis shots. We are current. The surrounding area and the exterior aesthetics of the restaurant had us feeling like this was finally going to be the one, the one buffet we would rave about and tell our friends only to hear, "how did you find this place it's amazing!?" And then we walked inside. "Welp, let's give it go." Were my famous last words as I ushered my wife to our seat. The plates in the buffet lines are all wet, and my wife swears that her plate was greasy... she had to get two plates before she found one that was "good enough." The options in the buffet are pretty normal, and there are some random items like frog legs, barbecue squid, etc. I grew up hunting and fishing. We ate rabbit and squirrel, so odd food items don't bother me, but they better be delicious (you would beg my Dad for more of his white wine gravy squirrel and rice). These were all awful. The barbecue squid had a pungent sea water smell and taste which indicates it was old and possibly bad (I love squid, so this wasn't just an "I don't like 'fishy' seafood thing"). The sushi was actually one of the better items there, but that is not saying a lot. The jalapeño chicken actually wasn't bad at all. I basically ate this the whole time. The waitress kept looking at our table, because we had a trash plate that was full of all the stuff we didn't like--it was stacked about 3 inches high. She didn't know if we were eating it or what. After we tried some more of the seafood options, we realized how bad of an idea it was. My wife loves crab rangoons, and she described these rangoons as "frothy" which sounds like the most unappetizing way to describe a rangoon-- her face said it all. I would add that the mussels were chewy and undercooked. Our stomachs pleaded for us to leave, but I was determined to find something good here. Then I found it, the Hibachi line, fresh veggies and meat! Nope. The meat was about as tender as marinated Michelins. We left with our bellies full of wasted calories and decided to find a local bar and order two strong drinks in hopes of killing whatever was alive in our stomachs. Our new house rule is to burn the Clipper Coupon magazines and salt the ashes. read more

Light on Selection, Low Sanitation Score, Overpriced.... I do not understand all of the high reviews this restaurant receives. This was the first time in my life that I have been to a Chinese buffet that does not have General Tsao Chicken. That, in itself, makes this buffet rather odd. The variety of choices is poor, and the food is only mediocre. I tried the egg rolls, they were edible, but far from being the best I have ever had. The Sesame Chicken (the only chicken dish on the entire buffet) was barely warm, and had a most unusual color. Since it was a Saturday afternoon when I visited, I was charged $14 (including the drink). That is extremely high given the light selection and 'ho-hum" taste. On the way out the door, I noticed that the sanitation rating was 93.5 - which is the lowest I have ever seen. There were also many children in the restaurant screaming their heads off, and one of them actually ran into me when I was standing at the buffet serving my plate. If you are expecting a full buffet with good food and lots of choices, you will be most unimpressed. read more

MOLDY DESSERT!!! Even worse, the manager doesn't seem to care. Generally the buffet food is OK comparing to some other nearby Chinese buffet restaurant. Waitress is quick picking up used dishes and refilling drinks. But when I had my first bite on the cream puff, I felt some weird smell. Giving a second look, there is very apparent mold in side. Let the waitress know right away and the manager came. He explained this was ordered from their supplier, not made in their restaurant, and it is hard for them to control the quality, then he took it away. I wasn't expecting a free meal, but an offer of some discount would have shown the restaurant cares about their customer. Well apparently it doesn't. If you can't control your food's quality, at least make your attitude right. This would be my first and last time going there. I won't recommend my friend going there, either. read more

Hibachi Buffet is just your typical Chinese buffet. Hibachi has dim sum, a small sushi bar, a person who can cook Mongolian Grill and someone who can make fresh soup for you. And those little areas are the strong points of this restaurant. Everything tastes great at the dim sum and sushi areas and it is cool to watch the people cook in front of you at the Mongolian Grill and soup areas. The buffet food is kinda greasy, but I have no idea why I keep going back for seconds. There's even American-like food like steak and like some sort of fish bake. Don't expect a full authentic Chinese meal. Hibachi is a good choice because it will fill you up! read more

Location: 4 out of 5 Whereas I associated most all you can eat Asian buffets to be nestled in some type of strip mall, Hibachi is an anomaly in that it shares the same location with a string of actual office buildings. The offices are right across from the Shoppes at Kildaire, so at least it retains the strip mall mentality, of sorts. I've mostly gone in the evenings with my family, after the rest of the offices close for the evening, and parking is optically ample. However, based on the layouts of the spots, you may have to walk down the hill just a little bit. You know - to work out before you stuff yourself. Décor: 2 out of 5 Eh - it looks like any other Chinese restaurant on the inside. Neon lights here and there, wooden tables with the wooden lacquered chairs with a pink or rose colored tablecloth, and the pleather booths that are oh so common. Not that you'd really be there to really revel in the ambiance. Selection of Food: 4 out of 5 You know - I really have to give it to Hibachi for providing a vast array of foods to eat. Yes, you have your obligatory fried rice and noodle dishes, in addition to the syrupy meats (chicken, beef, pork), but they also have seafood at night including shrimp, crawfish, small clams, crabs, and fish. It was also interesting to see frog legs on the buffet line, which I do enjoy from time to time. They have an adequate selection of steamed goods like the bbq pork buns, sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves, the little spareribs with black bean sauce, and yes, even "phoenix talons." Though these talons must be from a big chicken because they are huge. Walk along the same aisle and you have your soups and fried foods: crab rangoons, egg rolls, fried chicken wings, fried pot stickers, egg drop soup, hot and sour, wonton soup, etc. The sushi counter offers what you'd probably find at your local grocery store counter: pieces of salmon, tuna, and mackerel nigiri, and a few pedestrian rolls. I think you can ask that they make you a roll with fish and avocado on top like a dragon roll, but that does take some time since the guy is overworked. The made to order soup and noodle place is probably one of my standbys in case everything else is a mess. The beef noodle soup is consistently above average, and to boot - they have the Asian style congee that old Asian people (and some young ones too, I suppose) like, replete with the preserved black eggs. Their fruit and salad selection is admirable too for an Asian buffet, and I think they had about 8 types of ice cream/sorbet to choose from on my most recent visit. Quality of Food: 3.5 out of 5 Decidedly pleasant each time I've gone. My habit, I do stay away from the syrupy looking foods (think anything that starts with "general", "sweet and sour") and anything that looks to be thickened with too much corn starch. The rest of the hot bar food is passable, and the seafood has been pretty good each time I've gone. I do love me some crawfish from time to time! The sushi , although pedestrian - is fresh enough since they go through so much fish, and I've not ever had an instance when I've though, "Oh, the fish smells funny" or "Oh, the rice is starting to turn." Like I alluded to earlier, the noodle soups are consistently solid, and the steamed dim sum items...well, they're probably store bought, but who's keeping track at a buffet? Price: 4 out of 5 Pretty cheap, even at dinner. I think the adult buffet price is 10.99, and for one reason or another - my family always manages to find coupons where you get 15 or 20 percent off. The most recent time I went, there were 5 adults and 2 children, and the total bill (not including gratuity) was only 60 bucks or so. Not really anything to complain about. Overall: 4 out of 5 A strong 3.5 star experience, which rounds up to a 4. Given the choice, I wouldn't say, "Hey, I want to have my bday party at Hibachi," but out of convenience and the fact that this restaurant has become some type of family tradition when I visit, I don't oppose going. Other Notes: This does not have an effect on my rating, because it's not the restaurant's fault. However, there are certain groups of people out there (ethnic minorities of any culture in particular) that don't exert what I would call "social responsibility" when going to the buffet bar. Yes, you're at an all you can eat buffet, but this doesn't necessarily mean that you can go up there and take all of the crawfish, crabs, or clams so that no one else can have any. When other people take a small scoop or just a few of each item to sample, it's really quite rude to take half of the chafing dish, you know? Eh well, it's not a knock against the restaurant - just something to be advised of if you go there. Certain items go quicker than others, and it's usually due to just one or two people. Jerks. read more

Hibachi China Buffet - A small assortment of what you may find: sushi, frog legs, clams, meat. - Chinese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

From a spur of the moment, my bf and I decided on Chinese buffet tonight. We didn't expect much, but the food was really mediocre, and the service was lacking. I probably only saw my server three times throughout our 45 mins dinning experience there. First time was to hand us our drinks, second time was to clear our plates, and third/last time was to hand us our check. The crab and shrimp seemed to be frozen. And the taste of the soup was just average. I had couple pieces of the tako sushi from the sushi bar, and I can tell that the tako has probably been frozen for months. It was nice to have a huge selection to the chinese and hibachi food, but I probably would not return in a while. read more

I love chinese buffets. I do. But it's usually hit or miss. You get places with crusty stuff that's just been sitting out for hours, or you get tasty, fresh, happy food that has clearly just been set down. Here, you get the happy food, and there's an insane variety. There is definitely something for everyone, and you won't leave disappointed. You'll probably leave feeling like you ate the world, though. the food is delicious and the staff is fast and friendly. I highly recommend it! Haven't tried the hibatchi yet, but it certainly smells amazing. The best part is the price: It's not nearly as expensive as I thought it would be, considering the variety of foods! Check it out. You're welcome. read more

I have been to this place about 10 times since they opened. It seems to be really going down hill. The last 2 times the sushi has been really low quality, with crappy looking rolls and very little nigiri. Sure if you tip the sushi guy he will make you a "real" sushi roll, but why should that be necessary? I went on Monday (Aug 20th) and the sanitation rating was 93.5 which is getting near my "no way" threshold. The buffet items were OK at best. The men's rooms was really gross. The floors were disgusting with urine everywhere. "NEXT!!!" read more

Quite slim pickings for vegetarians. The vegetarian Lo Mein noodles had very few vegetables. There were no veggie only (strictly no meat or fish) entrees other than string beans. In the past, we have seen mushroom and broccoli-carrot medleys stir fried with no meat/fish. This time both the mushroom and the broccoli-carrot offerings all had chicken or shrimp. At least provide more salad dishes! Its not worth the $13 Fri-Sun. buffet if not a meat/fish-eater. read more

This is one of those chinese buffets that seems to have something for everyone. It's clean and busy every time I go in there. The thing I enjoy most is the soup. They heat up the noodles and ladle the soup in a bowl. Tasty! On the weekend, they also offer congee. Yum! The sushi rolls are okay. I generally assume that all you can eat sushi is not going to be top quality. I wouldn't suggest going to Hibachi just for the sushi. At the hibachi grill, you choose the meat, veggies, and sauce you want and they cook it up right there. The buffet itself has quite a selection with traditional chinese dishes, some seafood (shrimp, mussels, and crawfish oh my!), salad, dim sum, and desserts. Another plus- they serve alcohol! The sake is pretty cheap and hits the spot. Overall, good lunch spot or weekend lunch spot. read more

I went to this restaurant last Thursday (2/4/21) around 3:15pm. I picked the perfect time to come since most people were still at work. A nice slow stream of customers came in to eat, but I got take out for my family. As usual, they had plenty of food to choose from and it looked fresh. A young lady kindly asked if I wanted a certain item that was very low, but I was fine. I was quite happy with what I got for dinner and I almost sat down and ate there for one reason only............NO MORE KENNY G!!!! This restaurant was playing the same Kenny G music for as long as they've been open! Nothing else but Kenny G!!! This may seem trivial to some, but you don't know how much I detest his music. I'm sure he's a nice person though. Lol. Anyway, as I walk in to get some food. I am pleasantly serenaded by a female singer, singing in Mandarin. Beautiful voice I must say. And the next couple of songs were in Mandarin, so I figured they have a new format which was awesome in my book. For this very reason, I will be coming more often now to sit and relax and have a nice meal without my ears being tormented. The staff is nice, the bar and restaurant in general is clean. Much better than the one off Millbrook Rd. read more

Have been casually looking for a new go-to Chinese buffet since moving to the area, and this place might just win me over. What REALLY did it was the noodle soup station. My first time seeing one like it, but was easy enough to order. Decided to try it before anything else. Got a simple curry soup with udon noodles. So good. It had shrimp in it (which to be picky could have been better cleaned of the "black stripe" if you know what I mean), half a hard boiled egg, cilantro, chives, thinly sliced chicken... And a few other things I don't recall. SOOO good!! There was a great variety for all taste buds and dining desires. All the typical stuff plus a few things I don't typically see. Plus they had SESAME BALLS!!!! They were small and not stuffed with red bean paste or any filling, but they were fresh and crispy on the outside and the glutinous sticky dough yumminess on the inside. I'll go back just for the soup and more sesame balls!! read more

We arrived after graduation at 8pm, right on time. With balloons in hand and my father in law beside me, the women responds "we close at 9:30pm and your coming in at 8pm". She stopped me as though she did not want to let us eat bc we would be there close to closing. I responded with "ok, we will be out by 9:30" and began walking to the table. The women rolls her eyes at me and speaks to her colleague in Chinese. They interrupted the dinner 5 times to remind us they closed at 9:30pm. The food had been sitting a long time on the buffet. Some of the food was cold and we had to ask for water. It was clear they were mad we showed up an hour and half before they closed. One of the ladies told two of my kids to tell their mommy they closed at 9:30pm. THIS WAS AT 8:45pm!! I have NEVER been to a place of business where the staff clearly did not want you to eat there. Told you they wanted you out before closing time and refused to give your party refills on their waters. They were very RUDE and made us feel like we were not wanted in there restaurant. As we were packing up our balloons at 9pm (30 min till closing) the women comes in to get the plates and says "there's the tip tray. You need to tip us before you leave it's empty" she said this when we were still eating and ALL of my family was at the table. I moved the table to untie the balloon and a roach comes running out from under the table where our feet had been the whole time. I could have died with embarrassment. Not only did I have the staff telling me from the moment I walked in that they did not want to serve us, the women rudely said "you better tip us" and there were roaches under the table for my family (who's from out of town) to see run when the table moved. I will NEVER step foot in this place again. Staff was beyond rude and restaurant was nasty. Food was old and sitting for hours. I hope none of us get sick. read more

The experience was better than expected and better than other individuals' feedback that I read. The service was on point and the food was very good. I had a little bit of everything including the crab legs and salmon, however it was really all good with the exception of possibly the honey chicken. read more

This was one of those "My girlfriend wanted to go here because she had a coupon, so I went along with it" outings. It was OK. The company was better than the food. They have a nice diversity of food, which is a good sign. I've been to a few buffets in my time that actually had a crappy selection, so this was a good sign. Generally, I like having to make multiple trips up there just to see everything. Unfortunately, I only found one dish that I actively liked. And I love me some Chinese food. There was a jalapeno chicken dish that was damn near amazing. But everything else was just meh. I'd happily order that one dish off menu. Service in a buffet is always wonky, but the waitresses kept up with the water glasses. Can't complain about that. read more

Went here today with some coworkers for lunch. We got there about 11:45--good thing, too, since the place was packed by the time we were done with our meal. There is a huge variety of food on the lunch buffet. Even for a vegetarian like me, there was plenty to choose from. I was able to fill two plates full of veggies--eggplant in garlic sauce, bok choy, sauteed veggies--and rice and leave perfectly satisfied. I didn't care for the vegetable lo mein, though. My coworkers enjoyed a variety of chicken dishes, although I noticed beef dishes and seafood dishes on the buffet as well. Plus several varieties of rice and a table just for sweets. I did notice there was some decidedly non-Asian food there, however--two of my coworkers came back with cheese sticks and onion rings! Another of my coworkers took advantage of the sushi bar. Next time I go there, I might ask for something special from the hibachi grill. I would go back if I was in the area and jonesing for some Chinese food. It was fresh, it tasted good, and the price was reasonable--$8 for lunch buffet. Hard to go wrong. read more

Hibachi China Buffet in Cary is not the best Chinese buffet I have been to, but it's not the worst either. It falls more or less in the middle. They do have a pretty good selection, and some items I liked while others not so much. The items I did like were the fried scallops, fried shrimp, fried chicken wings (everything is fried here). I also liked their egg rolls and egg drop soup. If you are in need of a your Chinese buffet fix, this place should fit the bill for you. They have sushi, but I didn't try it. Service is par per a Chinese buffet. read more

I eat here all the time. For $8, you can't beat it. I mainly just eat the sushi. Many folks do not realize it but you can special order hand-made sushi and sashimi... for $8??? Amazing! Most of their sushi chef's are very accommodating and talented, There is one (a little guy who doesn't seem to know how to smile) who isn't as attentive and accommodating but all the others are great, especially if you drop a dollar in the tip jar. Well worth it. The rest of the buffet is fairly standard buffet fare with a tremendous variety, including chilled pick-n-peel shrimp. They also often have steamed crab legs. For $8! This place is an amazing value. Can you find "better" quality food elsewhere? Of course. But that can be said for any restaurant. Can you find really good food for a lower price, in a clean, well-lit environment with highly attentive servers elsewhere? Not that I'm aware of. read more

The food was mediocre at best (most of it not even able to be chewed). There was a long line when we came in the door and we were hoping we came to a great place. Instead the food was flavorless, been on the bar to long, and the staff was rude. While we were eating a staff member saw a bug crawling on the floor and came and smashed right above a child's head and plate with no regard for the customers. Thankfully I had eaten what I could stand already. The only reason I'm giving it a two star is because the hibachi was good. read more

I have been meaning to review this place since it opened. It's pretty much AMAZE-BALLS, as a friend of mine would say. Be careful, though...it's easy to stuff your little face full of deliciousness and not realize you're 3 plates deep until it's too late and you still haven't even gotten dessert. I usually partake in sampling from the different buffet stations, but only after I've gotten a giant embarrassingly large portion of sushi for my first round. If you go during a busy time, you're sure to get fresh sushi that's constantly being made right in front of you to keep up with demand. My other favorite feature is the hibachi bar, where you pick your items and they cook it for you on the grill with a choice of 3 sauces. Sure, it's still a Chinese buffet, but if you're going buffet, go big or go home and go Hibachi China Buffet! P.S. - Doc B's comment about centering your chi - totally necessary sometimes =) read more

My husband loves this place and sometimes he hustles me into coming along. The quality of food here sucks. There's just no other way to put it. Yes, there's lots of food and yes it's cheap but 80% of it is hardly palatable and the rest looks like it's hiding a mysterious food borne illness (sauces make me suspicious). Nothing I've had here is "good". The sushi was warm and looked yucky, the wasabi was some off brand with a weird texture. The fried food was either too greasy or too stale and all the flavors were just half-assed. I'm throwing in an extra star for customer service. The staff here is pretty quick and old plates are always cleared away before you've come back with a new one (this is key at a buffet). read more

I ate here for lunch on a Friday. Surprisingly, the place was packed. The strong part of the buffet is the variety. There really is quite a selection. Given that this is Chinese-American and not authentic Chinese food, and it is a buffet, the quality was actually pretty good. Out of the several dishes I tried, only one was not fresh. There definitely is something for everyone, I'll probably take my family of picky eaters there, and I'll bet they'll be happy. There was a sushi bar where you could get rolls. I wasn't that impressed. (Frankly, I have been impressed with the locally-made sushi at Kroger on US64 in Apex.) There were a couple other stations I didn't see until I was full, appeared to be a grill and a soup bar. For an $8 lunch, I thought it was a pretty good deal. I just need to keep reminding myself that "all you can eat" is a statement, not a challenge - stop a bit earlier. If you want authentic Chinese, go to Gourmet Kingdom in Carborro. But you want value, decent food, and a big selection, Hibachi China Buffet can be your spot. read more

Managing staff offered a measly $3 discount on my plate for finding a cockroach on my fish. The rest in my party still have to pay full amount. I will not be back again. The managing staff should have done a better job at crisis management. read more

Expensive. The sushi rolls were small but they will make whatever you want. The hibachi thing was small but a nice touch. The food was a little cold. It was okay. I would have enjoyed it more if it was cheaper...but at least they didn't charge my 1 year old. So yeah it was just ok. Not great but good enough for 14 hungry people that didn't want to wait. read more

It's been 2 years and what a different experience from what I said in my first review. Last time I said sushi was small and cute but not to my liking taste wise. This time- sushi feast. The rolls are still tiny and cute, but so much variety- way more than before. Also this time my fried rolls were warm and not cold! And the nigiri- this was the star of the night and the reason it's going up a star. So fresh and although small, the proportion of rice to fish was perfect. The only thing that I would have liked is for the wasabi as "glue" between fish and rice, but when you have to mass produce, I get it. Plus you can take as much wasabi as you want and adjust. So fresh- tuna, salmon, and yellowtail. I ate 3(maybe 4?) Plates of nigiri. Noodle bar is still yum, quick, and friendly. I didn't enjoy the buffet food (traditional buffet style chinese food) as much but the ice cream was delicious! Had a surprisingly better dinner than what I was expecting! Leaving full and happy :) Note* dinner buffet price is now $12.99(weekends) but worth every penny! read more

My wife and I go here a lot and it is our favorite Chinese buffet. What we really like about it is the sushi bar. Obviously the sushi doesn't compare to the more expensive Japanese restaurants like Maru but for the price it is great and amazingly fresh. I always get soup too because they have a soup bar. I almost never get soup at buffets but I always get soup here because it's that good. I usually get the red curry. The Chinese food here is ok but I just pick at it. Usually I get full after eating sushi and the soup. They also have a hibachi grille which is also included with the buffet, it's good as well and get it about 50% of the time. If you live close by, this place is definitely worth a visit read more

Went there because my wife is a vegetarian and she loves the tempura fried vegetables.Today we went and they said no more come back tomorrow.Sorry won't be back tomorrow or any other day.This place used to be ok....now it's just mediocre and tired. read more

Came here Saturday because my boyfriend and I had a coupon. We love this buffet! It has a generous variety of main courses, sushi, hibachi, sides, as well as desserts. Furthermore, what makes this buffet especially unique is their Saturday/Sunday dinner selections of dumplings and noodle soups! Do note that dumplings and certain soups are only served on weekends. So weekends are definitely the time to visit this buffet for that reason, since I had previously visited this location on a weekday and was not as impressed with the food save for the noodle station. A good sign is that this restaurant was absolutely PACKED towards the end of our dinner. I have shared their curry, fish ball, and duck noodle soups with my boyfriend and we have enjoyed them all! I highly recommend them. You receive a generous portion of your choice of noodle, along with fresh greens, and a delicious broth with whatever toppings the soup entails. The soups are so filling that I would actually recommend eating them towards the end so you'll be able to taste the other dishes before getting too full. Their other foods were quite tasty: coconut dumplings (I enjoy the texture and mild taste), fried shrimp (seasoned and fried to perfection), barbecue pork buns (store bought but still decent), and phoenix claws (texture does it for me, but they're not for everyone!). The sushi is average and completely what you'd expect of a chinese buffet. Although I have noticed that the sushi station has a reasonable selection of inari, fried maki, nigiri, and roe to try compared to most buffets. The service is attentive and they were on point with refilling our water and clearing our dirtied plates. Everything seemed reasonably clean and I have nothing negative to say. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and we'll be back for more! read more

An alive roach is in the dish!!! I felt sick... The worst part: I cannot imagine the restaurant manager asked my friend to pay her bill because the roach is only in my plate but not hers. Unbelievable. Never again. And I really should have taken a photo of that disgusting roach. read more

No one (employees ) smiles at this place. Food is ok. Your typical chinese buffet. The service is why i gave it one star. i walked in and their first question is: "how many?" Not hello or greeting. Ok I let that pass. But the kicker was at check out. No words were spoken...I literally paused after the credit card slip to see if the person would say thank you, your total is, or any sort of acknowledgment that a human being was standing there. All I got was a "thats it" not with a smile from the girl after I signed the receipt. I work in customer service related business and at the bare minimum one should say hello and a thank you after a customer took the time to come/spend money at an establishment. Also it wasnt like she was someone who didnt speak English. Plenty of other Chinese places in the area. In case the management wants to find out who was working, I was there on Saturday Jan 31st around 2 pm. Update. The staff have been changed and a little better than the first visit read more

I am always looking for a good buffet and since their is not a lot of them around here I thought I'd give this one a try. A friend and I decided to go to lunch here. Was pretty busy. The people in the front were very nice. But here's why I gave it one star: -After filling my plate up with Orange Beef, Broccoli and Beef, Chicken in a garlic sauce, Noodles and a crab ragoon I sat down and started to eat. The chicken wasn't cooked all the way, was very fatty, dry and tasted like it's been sitting for awhile. The beef was okay. However, when taking a bite of the Orange beef my mouth was on fire! I took it out into a napkin to observe and there was a huge red chili. It wasn't labeled spicy. It also tasted oddly like metal...the crab ragoon was very dry and gross. I had one plate. Before I went for a second the server shoved a ticket in front of my face and said Thank you have a nice day and started clearing our table. It was the rudest thing I have ever experienced. Definitely will not be coming back. read more

Went with my daughter Sunday evening. Took 10 minutes waiting in line after giving hostess or names for the waiting list. Have been there before and again we were very satisfied. Plenty to choose from. $25 for adult and child. ..... I think it is worth it. Left happy and felt good the rest of the evening. Had no upset stomach which is not what happens at some buffets I have eaten at before. Will eat there again ! read more

Clean, friendly staff. The food was not so good. I had 3 different types of chicken and they all taste exactly the same. No seasoning. The rice had a burned taste. Not much of a selection. I ended up eating 2 yeast rolls. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Terrible!!! A death fly in my soup Never again!!!!! They offered $6 discount for the problem read more

This place does not deserve 4 stars. Compared to China queen, it does not have lovely vegetable dishes or not-so-greasy sushi. Vegetable is bad. Having said that, the shrimp is competent compared to other buffet. I am very disappointed by the noodle soup section. The broth is like dirty water. The protein (roast duck or fish ball) is of low quality. read more

Came here for my daughter's request for her 17th birthday. This is my first and last time here. Food was gross. Couldn't even choke down the lo-mein; literally almost spit it out. (How does a Chinese rest mess up lo-mein?). Nearly all of the meat was over cooked to the point that it was dry and crispy. Sushi was disgusting... I could go on. Watched roaches walk on the wall in the back dining section. Other guests noticed upon walking in and started killing them with napkins... Wait staff wouldn't listen. Say don't take this plate, and they take the plate (my son). Ask for Pepsi Zero (daughter's friend) get regular Pepsi. Seriously not one good thing to say except I'll never be back. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. Found plastic that had been fried into my chicken, and the manager seemed to think it was a normal occurrence. Poor service and rude staff. read more

Hibachi China Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Fantastic! If you like crappy "Chinese" food. First off, this place has the most stand-offish staff you'll ever see. I had to ask for a drink refill 3 times, and none of them seem to speak, even as you're trying to be nice or polite to them. No greeting coming in, and not a single word as I left. The food. Holy mother of...the food is awful. Greasy, over-fried fare that might have once been meat or vegetables. Who knows? I literally traveled twice around the buffet, and found nothing appealing, so I settled on some stuff I hoped would be ok...it wasn't. At all. Not even gonna continue this review. It is what it is, and the reviewers before me have pretty much summed it up perfectly: Go somewhere else. read more

Took the kids here on Saturday night for dinner. Sort of a daddy/daughter night out. My first visit, but since we hadn't had Chinese Buffet in a while we decided to give it a try. Overall we were happy with the experience. We arrived around 6pm and were seated immediately. I noticed that this place has a lot of items that I don't see at many other Chinese Buffets (chicken feet on the dim sum table, frog legs, etc). The part I liked best was the noodle soup bar. Haven't seen that anywhere else and the curry noodle soup was really tasty! My kids liked the selection, including the large desert selection, so overall the trip was successful. When we left around 7pm, there was a line of people waiting to be seated so the place seems popular. I'll probably try it again, although after reading Pooky G.'s review, I need to check out the bathrooms next time because maybe this is a problem area. Then again, I've seen worse in other places. Lastly, I thought that the pricing for adults was a little high ($12) but for kids it seemed reasonable. Meal for the three of us (adult + 7yo + 11yo) was about $25. Not bad. read more
