Good food, good service, never rushed. Place is clean with awesome sushi bar. Furniture is getting a little dated, but comfortable albeit a little tight. read more

The service was good, the food tasted good they had sushi and the price for it all was reasonable. read more

I've visited my fair share of Chinese buffets over the years, and Jin's stands out as one of the better experiences I've had. The variety was impressive. Plenty of choices across the board, with fresh selections consistently replenished on the steam tables. Everything looked well-maintained and clean, which always sets the tone for a more enjoyable meal. I tried to keep things on the healthier side, focusing mostly on protein-rich dishes and steering clear of the sugary sauces that tend to dominate buffet spreads. The grilled meats and stir-fried vegetables were flavorful without being overly greasy, and I appreciated the effort to offer lighter options. I also sampled a few pieces from the sushi station. It's not exactly high-end sushi, but it was fresh, well-prepared, and satisfying enough to round out the meal. All in all, Jin's delivered a solid buffet experience with quality, cleanliness, and enough variety to make it worth a return visit.

Jin's is a lovely little buffet in the middle of a 3-4 business strip mall across from the Claremont Walmart. The staff were all very sweet and it seems like a small family based restaurant. Everything was fresh and the soups (I got the hot & sour, two bowls) were piping hot! My only caveat, being a vegetarian, is I wish they had a couple of more veggie friendly and/or tofu dishes on the buffet. read more

Love to go to Jin's. Good food and they keep the buffet filled up. Service is good to refill your drink. Asian casual ambiance.

Make this your go to for a Chinese buffet! The choices are similar to other Chinese buffets but these dishes taste so much fresher and more flavor! Daily specials! Take out also. read more

The food is fresh and good service is friendly and it's good for one person or multiple

Food is always good. Service is usually very good too, even though it did take a while to get our drinks and our check the last time we were there read more

To the lady that posted pictures calming it had open holes in the Walls is so funny the bottom is glass that the gray paint has came off no holes. Food is always fresh and hot as soon as a dish is empty a replacement is brought out quickly. read more

To us, as we cooked many years at home in Chinese way, this place appears as Michelin for a treat, in which we visit there from time to time, as to enjoy the classy quisins by the professionally licensed chefs. read more

fresh fresh fresh great price!! best buffet around!!! jin's has been feeding my family for years!!!!

We picked up a huge variation of Chinese food To Go and it was all delicious from appetizers to dinner combination platters. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone! read more

The food is okay at times, but I just got freaked out a lot when I saw holes in the wall allowing pests inside. Looks so nasty. We never sat in this booth before so I never knew about this. Definitely rethinking this place now. The health department should come investigate this! Disgusting! read more

My boyfriend and I had reservation a few weeks ago to a very lovely restaurant but it truly had nothing on Jin's I'm sure we will be "poopying" on ourselves here shortly because we did eat a disgustingly large amount for only $15!! Oh you absolutely read that right! $15 and you sure do get your bang for your buck!! I would rate it a 6/10 for the "romantic date" atmosphere but overall a 10/10!! We love you Jin read more

We have been coming here ever since the restaurant opened, and we love it. The food is always fresh and good. I can only recommend.

the food was bland, the service was okay. the ambience was simple, kinda cramped and the tables weren't the cleanest. the biggest thing i must add is the UNDERCOOKED chicken my sister received and the fact i am pretty certain i have food poisoning from the shrimp sitting out too long. read more

Went here like 5 times in a row!!! This place is amazing and the food is sooo good for good price!!! Definitely coming back!!!

Food is ALWAYS amazing and staff is always polite. We've eaten here over 20 times an have never been disappointed.

Overall taste is great! The chicken wings was deliciously extra crispy even when it's the last thing I ate on my plate and it cold but still crispy! I love the beef and broccoli it's better than hibachi in hickory. It's smaller and not big of an selection as hibachi but the flavors are better. Great ice cream selection, it brings back memories. I don't remember the last time I had a scooter bar... but that was unexpected! When we got here our phones were completely dead and charging in the car. Wasn't able to take pictures of the delicious food but went to get my phone at the end. read more

The food was good. The buffet is clean and has good choices. I don't live close but will definitely go back when I am in the area.

I just went here with a couple friends. 3 buffets and 1 non water for 35 with tax. Incredible value. Their sushi is very fresh. Everything was hot and tasted great. They had a sesame ball that was filled with (maybe) a mild chocolate. Their egg rolls were still hot and crispy. The only downside was the way we seemed to be rushed out when the bill was brought to the table. read more

We love this place! We go at least once a week. My daughter also loves this place and wants to come here everyday!

Eat there quite often and everything is always great food is always delicious staff and waitresses are always great

Food is always good. We travel from the Denver area to Conover. The egg rolls are the best.

Walking in it looks pretty decent... we got here around 5:30 pm and it wasn't that busy so we got our seat right away. When we went up to the buffet everything looked clean and all the food was warm. I got the fried rice and some of their chickens to try and everything was really good. I had also gotten some spring rolls which were stale and hard. My mom had gotten some sushi and she says that the inside of the sushi was awful, she says that it had tasted like it had sat for too long. We later got some donuts which we usually love but they were as well stale and hard... Pricing is decently high but not too bad, it was $30 for 2 of us. The workers were extremely nice and kept checking on our drinks and getting our dirty dishes off the table. read more

Great Chinese buffet. They may not be largest buffet you may ever go to, but they still pack lots of items to choose from on their buffet. The food is to notch. I really enjoyed the coconut shrimp, and their potstickers/dumplings. Everything I tried seemed better prepared than other Chinese buffets in the area. It's worth stopping in. read more

More expensive than some buffets, but you taste the difference. Great assortment. Staff is always friendly.

Only came here because NY Hibachi was closed for the day due to power outage. Only 2 star because there wasn't as much food option. A lot of their food is bland with little taste. Not only that, but the place itself is so tiny and I felt really cramped in it. Will not return. read more

Me and my fat friends love Jin's buffet even we made a song about it during a football game

KICKED OUT of JIN's BUFFET for WRITING my BOOK The only thing I spend money on is eating out, not high on the hog, mind you, but so I don't have to cook and focus on getting this 3rd novel out. I NEVER go anywhere to eat at "Peak Time Rushes," I don't like crowds ... I tip well ... sit off to the side ... and am quiet. The places I go like my business, they invite me to stay as long as I like, and I've listed some of them in "Acknowledgments" of my books. I started going to Jin's Buffet in Conover a year ago in part due to the VA Discount of Free Drink, their coconut chicken, and the beef tips. I've been going pretty much every Wednesday and Saturday, sometimes on Sundays ... regularly. My regular is a plate of fruit ... a few minutes later a plate of meat, vegetables, and rice noodles ... then a couple ice pops or fudge bars. ALWAYS ... I am working hard at my laptop. Today, however, as I came back with my ice pops, a woman without a name tag and wearing an apron came to my table (there were maybe four other tables occupied in the whole restaurant) and said something to the effect of, "Excuse me ... I am manager ... we like you like come here much ... we like you like our food ... we like you spend money to us ... but this is business to eat ... this is not library ... you must go because you here long time ... server want you to go so she can have other person at her table ..." I was stunned and replied, "There is nobody here, the server has this whole section and there has been almost nobody here since I came in, she and the other servers are standing over there doing NOTHING, I send people here all the time, I come here to write my book and had you in the Acknowledgements, I tip well, and the money I save with the VA Free Drink I give back to the server. Just this past Saturday you told me to stay as long as I wanted because you weren't busy, and I've been giving you business a long time." She said, "I sorry ... you must go," and I was still holding my ice pops in my hand. I said, "No problem ... I'm putting these back (the fact she let me put them back is against Health Codes) and I'm leaving ... you get my business no more. I'm putting this one the internet and every Consumer Report I can find." Golden Corral has the best home-made potatoes and roasted turkey, Geppetos cannot be beat for the meat in their spaghetti sauce, Hams on 321 has a Buffalo Burger to fight for, New York Hibachi has a superior selection with the best sushi in the area and a great grill, for Japanese cooking Kobe has a great sesame chicken and they fill your plate with that rice (last time I was there, I ordered a side of carrots, and the order filled half my plate), and for just a sandwich nothing beats Sub Station II ... I am just one person, but Jin's Buffet has NO HONOR!!! You are RUDE, and should be SHUT DOWN!!! I am DONE with you!!! read more

One of the best small buffets! My family and I eat there often, even with the pandemic jinns was adapting there safety precautions and was able to stay open while many other eating establishments ended up closing down read more

Best buffet in Conover, prices are average not expensive. They have these cheese pies that are so good, it's a must try if you like danish.

Nothing special, but quick, clean and decently priced which is all that matters when it comes to these types of places. I'd eat here again when the client asks to. read more

This Restaurant was a decent place to eat at with your family if you in the mood for Chinese and a little bit of American (but not much). The waiter got all of our drinks before we even sat down and kept our drinks refilled up constant. This place was decently clean and the food was decent. Just be careful eating seafood and fruits from a Chinese place. (The cantaloupe was a little sour.. ) But this restaurant than better than Popeyes read more

We love going to jins, always clean, food is usually always fresh, a few times it has been bland but for the most part delicious. Service is good and like others wish they had more to choose from. Price is at a good rate. read more
