Tasteless they were good now horrible who ever runs the place needs to tast the food wast of money no chinese eating in the place

Better than most of the Chinese buffets here in Rhode Island. A large variety of buffet items and they also have a sushi chef onsite. They always have several different rolls to choose from. Staff is very friendly and are always nearby to clear the plates from the table or top off your drinks! read more

Hong Kong Buffet - Yummy - Chinese Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

It took me almost 5 months to discover this little gem. I visited on a Friday night and the restaurant was completely packed. Consequently, food were fresh with empty trays being replaced frequently but drinks were not refilled unless asked. If I have to shell out 13.50 for dinner then I will put as many crabs/mussels/clams on my plates as possible. I will not fill my stomach with cheap items such as fried rice or wonton soup. Therefore, these 5 stars are strictly for the aforementioned items. I will definitely be back. read more

By far the best Buffett in the area I come all the way from Fall River to eat here the food is always hot fresh and well stocked And the wait staff is perfect I don't waste my time going to any other Buffett and you shouldn't either read more

Thanks to a Southwest over hour delay in my departure I had time to find a place for lunch. Followed Yelps rating and comments and found this close to the airport. Maybe one of the best Chinese Buffets ever and I have been to a lot. Not 500 things but a good assortment with far above average. quality and flavor. They prepare smaller quantities and refill often. Food is so much better. Price is fair for what you get. Actually not all chicken! Very good pork fried rice. Help was excellent and acted like they were glad to be there! Would go back in a heart beat but I live 1000 mi away. If ever in Providence again I will return read more

Best Asian buffet in Rhode Island. Owners manage with an iron fist and the consistent quality is proof.

This place was somewhere my dad and his best friend visited frequently, back in the day. It is so clean and has so many FRESH choices, everything from peel and eat shrimp to egg foo yung. Unfortunately( for my waistline)I will be visiting this establishment on a regular basis. read more

So, of all the Chinese buffets I have been to, I have to say that while the food is good here, there is not as much of a selection as I have seen in other places and yet they are priced much higher then other places. The waitstaff is not very personable whatsoever. The restaurant is very clean from what I can tell. Anytime I have been there, the selection is always the same. I would recommend that they try changing up what is being served every now and then. Also, keep up on the sushi a little more. That area always seems to fall short with what is available. If you are in the area and hungry, then by all means go here to eat. But, if you have time, look for another Buffett with better ratings. read more

Mango pudding. Ok, perhaps I can not verify this, but there was a time when their buffet offered both soft serve ice cream and mango pudding. Ample parking allows those feeling a bit glutinous to easily swing in and then disgracefully waddle out, full of shame and mango pudding. read more

I rarely go to buffets, but I went here a few times with my father. The woman who serves could be a little more, what's the word I'm looking for -- enthusiastic, perhaps? She always looks uninterested when taking orders and seems very uptight. Not a good sign. The food was mediocre. Good chicken though, however the boiled rice tasted like crap. I had to fuciously drown it in brown gravy to avoid tasting it. The steamer pot, if it deserves to be called a pot more like a "kiddie cup", should be a little bigger if you plan on serving buffet style rice. Not to mention it's not even near the food, but rather all the way towards the back where the soup is. Good, keep that nasty rice isolated please. The "desserts" they have on display are a joke. Little Debbie puts out better cakes than these fools, and for cheaper! Not much of a variety either. I've had way better Chinese food than this place that's for sure. read more

Sigh, I don't know why my folks like this place so much...it perplexes me to no end, but allow me to shed some light for veteran buffet goers to sway you either "yay" or "nay." First of all, this buffet is the most Americanized Chinese buffet that I've ever been to. To some, that may be highly sought after, with almost every imaginable dish served on the "pu-pu platter" available in the buffet line. However, apart from all of the greasy fried foods, there was nothing remotely authentically Chinese in the buffet. However, there were positives as well. They did have some dishes that were a bit of a surprise: the filet mignon, grilled salmon, decent sushi and sauteed crab. Also, I was really impressed by the use of microphones by the managers to constantly alert the cooks in the back to refill the food. Finally, the smelts and the seaweed salad were a decent surprise, but unfortunately, were all that I really ate. Food: 2 stars Price: 1 star Service: 1.5 stars - my water was filled...maybe once or twice and we frequently had empty dishes lying around the table for the majority of the dinner Ambiance: 2 stars read more

One of the worst buffets that we had! We have been tasting different buffet in California, Boston, Ohio, Florida, and Texas. You can tell that their meats are not fresh and made them either dark or coloring with various dressing (I was told be a Chinese buffet chef, saying that's the typical way to "cover" the unfreshness). We were not impressed with the services either. First time and will be the last time because we gave it a try for vacation. We should read those reviews beforehand. I will NOT pay anything for their food. read more

I was in the mood for mass amounts of Chinese and Japanese food and I found that right here! The sushi was really good. Cheap too! Not high end but I definitely hit the spot =) read more

This location and buffet style Chinese Restaurant has come a long way over the years. Right now I think they are very good at providing a high quality buffet for a reasonable price. They also serve a full menu and have opened a self serve frozen yogurt not far from this location. The buffet offers plenty of sweets and self serve ice cream for you. Fresh fruit, cookies and puddings. I always see people eating the fruit, cookies and ice cream all the time. You can also stop by on a busy night on your way home and get the Buffet to go by the pound, I think it's $7.99. This is a great feature for someone in a rush or on the go. You can fill your box with all your goodies and be in and out in 5 minutes. I am a huge Peking Ravioli or Fried Dumplings fan. When they originally opened they served a premade heavy doughed version, it was OK and filling but nothing great. Now who ever the Chef is or who ever decided homemade was the way to go made the right call. They now use a homemade dough with a homemade pork and Chinese cabbage filling. You don't even know the cabbage is there, it is used like parley. They are delicious. At the buffet they are always waiting for you and always hot, juicy and tender with just enough crust. If you are a big a fan of Peking Raviolis like me you can get an order from the menu and ask them to fry them well on one side, or get some steamed they are both full of flavor and nice and juicy. They also offer sushi at the buffet and my friend is a sushi junky and eats plates of it along with chilled peel your own shrimp. The friend rice has been economized and only onions and pork are used. No egg and beans sprouts. I find it very good and use it instead of white rice now. Beef and Chicken teriyaki are very good. The Mandarin Chicken is also flavorful dark meat. The Generals Chicken can be super awesome when fresh and with large chunks. When the pieces get small or too much sauce and not enough chicken I wait for a new order. The peppery shrimp and General Tao's Shrimp are both very good. You have to watch out if you try the peppery shrimp, one segment of shell and the tail are left on those shrimp. Generals are all peeled and deveined and shell-less. Many patrons where getting the boneless chicken fried with sweet and sour or brown gravy. When I was nearby 3 guests came back just for brown gravy. I stirred it well and it was hot and tasty, a little bland for salt or dipped food, but it worked well. Crab Rangoon where decent, sweet but not greasy. They also had boneless teriyaki salmon and some other boneless fish. Along with egg foo young, lo mien, soups, white rice. Even fries, chicken nuggets and pizza for the little ones. They where a few other beef, chicken and vegetable stir frys and everyone was eating them and getting refills. They do one unique thing here, hostess and line chief go from stations to stations and if refills are needed they use a wireless mic and give refill orders to kitchen right away. Bottom line as far as Buffets and Chinese restaurants go this is well worth trying for the value alone, not to mention good, hot, tasty food. If your are in the Knightsville section of Cranston, or just looking for some reasonable good Chinese food give Hong Kong Buffet a shot. If you are not happy let them know and I believe they will do their best to make you so. Also free refills on soft drinks. Maybe hot beverages too. Buffet take out $4.99 a pound excluding fish. read more

Went for lunch. Lots of different dishes to choose from at the buffet. They had the favorites like General Tso chicken, dumplings, lo mein, etc...as well as things I've never tried before...all the food was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. However, can you believe there are still grown adults on this planet who bring their dirty plate back to the buffet to refill?!?!?! C'mon society, get it together. I only noticed this cuz I'm a nosy people watcher. read more

They have a nice variety of food options all of which I found tasty. I had a serving of nearly every item and I particularly enjoyed their Singapore Noodles and Sesame Chicken. As far a ambience, it looks like your average $13 buffet with ample parking. Update: When I go again I'll be sure to avoid the shrimp. Two of my friends who had the shrimp had upset stomachs and item they had in common was the cocktail shrimp. read more

Food was ok, I go to buffets quite often and like trying new places since I travel so much. Disappointed in the lack of options, felt like not much to choose from. I will look for a different place next time. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Went to Hong Kong last night, six people, there was supposed to be eight of us but two read reviews of this establishment, that were pretty sketchy so they bowed out, needless to say they missed one of the best buffets I have ever been to, and my wife, who is the fussiest eaters I know, thoroughly enjoyed every thing she tried, All six of my group enjoyed everything ... more than once Highly recommend. will be returning! read more

Needless to say, I was very disappointed. First of all, the waitresses were not attentive at all. My family of 5 & I had to ask for refills a couple different times and I must say, the small cups aren't helping them either. They might want to up their cup size. There's a reason why I haven't been here in years and now I know why. The food was horrible. You can tell it had been sitting out for awhile and the lady calling the orders refused to call for a new batch. She kept stirring it over as if she was trying to hide the dried up noodles which stuck out like a sore thumb. My whole family and I was not at impressed with the food selections. IT WAS DOWNRIGHT LOUSY. Never coming back. This buffet is pretty much CLOSED FOR BUSINESS for me. read more

My friend and I discovered this restaurant today after our first choice was closed for some reason. I am so glad we discovered HK buffet. The servers were very attentive and always refilled out water right away. The buffet was filled with typical Chinese American dishes but also included some Vietnamese Spring Rolls and a sushi bar with excellent sushi. The sushi bar itself far surpassed any typical sushi bar where the rolls sit out for too long. There was a sushi chef making rolls for you if you wanted something different. Some of the more unique items on the menu were the stir fried crab, some clam dishes and doughboys. I suspect these items are for the RI palate as I have never seen these at a Chinese Buffet before. Regardless they were delicious!! Whether you stumble in by mistake as my friend and I did or you intend to come here you will not be disappointed! read more

Sesame shrimp got me hooked! The differences of items between lunch and dinner make it worth doing the dinner option.

It was a great week at the gym, so I figured I'd go grab some Chinese buffet as a reward for myself. I found my buddy who usually joins me for this venture, and we headed north for our usual spot, talking up how pumped up we were to be going the entire way. We pulled into the parking lot and, oh no, it can't be...our usual spot was closed down! Thank goodness for technology because we were not going to be denied. Grab the cell, get on Yelp! and find the closest Chinese buffet. It was a bit farther out than we were headed, but not too far - so off to Hong Kong Buffet we went. The buffet was very clean and continuously refilled. The service was friendly and super efficient. Our empty plates were cleared before we could even get back up to the table. It was a nice touch to have free refills on our sodas since that isn't always the case at these buffets. The prices are more than reasonable. My intention was high protein; any meat, especially meat on sticks - a huge weakness of mine. The chicken and beef teriyaki were both delicious and above average. I sampled some wings, pork chops, boneless ribs and a few others. They were all better than most buffets I've frequented. There was a sushi station that I did not visit - but the pieces coming out of that area did look good if that's your thing. It was a huge surprise to see the carving station with prime rib and filet mignon. I had the filet - moist, delicious and melt in your mouth goodness. I didn't have any rice or noodle dishes or deep fried meat stir fry plates - but they did all look pretty tasty and judging by what I did have, I would imagine they are. I'm glad we found this spot and I will be back. It's delicious, Americanized Chinese/Asian fare that anyone who enjoys that kind of thing, coupled with excessive overeating is sure to enjoy. It was well worth the extra miles to get there, and I cannot think of a single reason when this wouldn't be my destination of choice for such things from now on. read more

This place gets 3 stars only because of the fact that they offer mediocre sushi and it's the only Chinese buffet in the state that's worth spending money on. If you're looking for quality, great tasting Chinese food. This is not your place. But if you want to eat some low grade "filet mignon", okay sushi, and tough chicken until your stomach bursts then this is the place to go to. You could do much worse. Unfortunately, with RI Chinese buffets, you can't do much better either. read more

I've seen places with more selections but with less choices you get fresher pans all the time. I've never left hungry. read more

The grossest, most disgusting food ever! Over saturated, greasy, over cooked, and tasteless. Don't eat here unless you want a plate of greasy food that will most definitely raise your cholesterol levels. I was astounded by the heaping plates I saw people bringing back to their tables. They must really enjoy garbage food. There are plenty of good Chinese restaurants in the area, why anyone would eat here is beyond me. I paid $20 for stomach indigestion and a night in the bathroom. There were maybe 2 or 3 meatless options, each grosser than the other. read more

I found out about this place because my brother always finds some good spots on yelp. The food is really good, great quality, great sushi and very clean. The wait staff is always checking our tables to clear but honestly it's really annoying when they literally check every 5 min I feel like I am rushed and can't enjoy my dinner. That's the only bad thing I'd say about the place read more

Place is really good with great service and decent selection if sushi and chinese. The Asia Buffet in Warwick has larger selection and is a bit cheaper. read more

This is my absolute favorite Chinese food place... Let me start by highlighting their General Tsao's Chicken, and their Fried Rice... Both are just amazing, and together, it like Chinese food heaven!! Their sushi is just ok, but I don't fault them for that.. If you want sushi, it's always best to get it from a sushi restaurant. Nim Chow is yummy too! Service is pretty on point. The waitstaff is always very courteous. Even when we go in a large group, they kindly accommodate us. From my own experience, the restaurant is always clean and I like that I constantly see the staff changing over the food pans. Over all, a rock in' 5 stars! read more

Food was alright. Not a huge selection. Place was clean & wait staff was very nice. We did go during lunch. Wonder if the dinner is better? We all got a soda and paid $15 each which left the waitress with a nice tip. For the price it was good. read more

I like this place so much better than the royal buffet. Less items than royal but the quality I think is much better. My favorite was the general Tao chicken, it was nice and crispy and not soggy, will definitely switch over to this buffet. Goodbye royal! Ha read more

Love this place--found it nearly 20 years ago--it has never disappointed. Cleanest Chinese Restaurant/Buffet around. Great wonton soup. Love the nime chow and sauce. read more

The food is good depending on what time you go. They don't seem to happy when you bring baby's or younger children in. The food is warm but not Hot no difference in dinner or lunch food wise unless it's Sunday 1499 is crazy for the choices they have. Mint muse is amazing. Don't recommend eating the dumplings they were really hard and old. Beef teriyaki was amazing salad bar is great not many dressings to chose from but it is a Chinese restaurant. Hot tea was really good and white rice was kind of burnt but from what I was told ppl like it like that so just a be wear thing. ‍ a lot of fish options and nachos are to die for. My husband loves the chow main but said it doesn't have celery. Always have pizza ,chicken nuggets , Mac and cheese, and ice cream for the kids which I actually think is great if you have picky eaters. I would highly recommend going for lunch and stay away for dinner to expensive. Btw they have cameras all over the place at almost every table. Love the fact the bathrooms are always clean and well stacked with toiletries and the best part is the kids changing station. read more

Just like the other reviews I agree it's the best in the state for a Chinese buffet. It's literally a five minute walk from me and I have been countless times. The food has always been good. I always go for lunch or a quick take out (which is mega cheap by the way if you get the right items). Overall really good food, the soft serve isn't icy like other places and the food is overall good. This is also the only buffet I've eaten sushi at and didn't get sick after, so that speaks volumes to me. read more

beware: i witnessed a waitress take leftovers off a table , put the mom chow on a tray, then proceed to put them back on the buffet. when i confronted the owner he denied it happened, did not even ask who dis this. seemed like he was giding a regular practice. serious health issue here. read more

the food isn't that great, tasteless, the sushi was not good at all. I had lo mein and it was very dry...and the wings were dry too. The staff were very friendly. I don't think I'll go back there again. read more

I really didn't want to give this place 2 stars, but that was my honest experience. My last visit there was about 5 years ago and it was overall good. I went back to the location last month and the place has really worn down. The food is very limited, so there isn't a lot to choose from. The nime chow is tasteless, mostly filled with rice noodles than anything else, and honestly the worst I've tried in a long while. The sushi was okay, but tasteless. They give you weird looks if you have left overs on your plate. A lot of the options are more like fried dough with a tiny piece of food in it than actual food. The two stars could make up to the fact that some of the waitresses are nice. I could go on and on, but in simple terms, I'm not going back. read more

My 2 teens and I love it there. Food is fresh and tasty with a great selection. Service is good too.

Good Chinese buffet. Clean. Vegetarian-friendly, including vegetarian sushi. They replenish the buffet items, including sushi, promptly. One staff member, who is always holding a wireless microphone, continually monitors the buffet. When a buffet item gets low, she informs the kitchen using the wireless microphone. Her report is not heard in the dining room, but rather only in the kitchen. Friendly staff, who have a neat and pleasant appearance. read more

Very good buffet. I'm not usually a fan of Chinese Buffet but my husband wanted to give it a try. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The food was very good, hot, fresh and a great variety. Our boys love the fresh sushi. Great prices and great wait staff too. We have been back a few times and will continue to come back. Great experience. read more

Not as promising as the Website claims it to be. A lot of the food here was a bit on the bland side, and the Nime Chow was so dry I could have sworn it was actual paper, and not rice paper. The Sushi Bar was the biggest disappointment, everything was covered in tempura and I found the open space in front of it where everyone could practically breath and cough on it to be somewhat disturbing as well as the really short tongs. I can't say I'll go back. read more
