Ordered from here to give the new ownership a try and the things I've heard on social media platforms with the improvements. That was not the case. Did delivery. Got 2 orders wrong. When I called they said they were the right dishes, they just make their Chow Mein & Kong Pao Chicken differently. I asked if they could either deliver the right dish & we'd be happy to give the wrong ones back, make the right dishes & I'll drive up & exchange them and refund me the dedlivery fee, or refund those 2 orders and forget about it. Trying to cone up with a solution and them telling me they make their dishes differently was such a frustrating ordeal. I'll stick to ordering from the WOK. read more

Jumbo Buffet - a plate of food on a table - Chinese Near Me - La Grange, Kentucky

See all

It's not good. We have been several times in a year and the prices keep going up. Only thing I like to get is the fresh hibachi, because it is fresh. Everything else is very bland and sits under the warmer. Desert options are mid. Ice cream is freezer burnt. read more

Ate there first time since the prices went up & after remodeling & COVID pandemic. Waitress did not speak English. No menu -- only one price for buffet. Buffet was not kept up with fresh food. Needs great improvement to get the crowds back. read more

I can't think of a single good thing to write about Jumbo. The food dishes run from terrible to mediocre, at best. It sits in warmers for hours and is only refreshed when the pan is empty. Th last time my wife and I ate at Jumbo, we were both nauseous all night. Now, other patrons have posted pictures of cockroaches in the food. I can't go there again nor recommend it. read more

My son and I went here for lunch. I have to say, the food was hot and fresh, the wait staff made sure drinks stayed filled. Everything we tried was great-egg rolls, hot and sour soup, crab ragoon, lo mein, everything we ate was delicious! The price was very reasonable-we will definitely be back and tell everyone we know! read more

The food was very good. they accepted us to come in late and we still ate till we were full. they made extra food for us. the customer service is great! read more

My dining experience was at 7pm on a Saturday night. I only saw one server, whom was friendly. There were only two other tables dining besides myself, a few more people-customers showed before I left, but not many. The young lady at the cash register was not very friendly, talkative or attentive, she acted like I was disturbing her from playing on her cell phone. When I approached the counter to pay my bill, she glanced up at me then looked back her phone. I said that I need to pay my bill, and without speaking, she put out her hand to accept my bill; and payment and after accepting my payment, she just handed me my card back and receipt to sign (no thank you, have a good evening, nothing). I would not even give her a one star rating. There were very low levels of food on the buffet, understandably due to not very many customers to eat it. Even though all of the hot foods were in the buffet steamer pans, most selections were lukewarm to cold. The taste of the food was standard, nothing that was exceptional. I agree with another reviewer about the crab rangoon. It was crab-less, just cream cheese. There was no signage on any of the food items. If you are familiar with any Chinese buffet, you would know what the items were. But, if you are unfamiliar with the items, you would not know what any of the items or sauces were. I dined with my mother and she came back to the table with a ramekin of what she hoped to be sweet and sour sauce and not hot sauce. They only gave us one napkin, that our silverware was wrapped in and none extra at the table. We asked for more, along with just about everyone else around us. Our waitress brought us a small stack of napkins (the size of the napkins were smaller than the ones you would get at White Castle). When eating peel and eat shrimp and various other hand foods, they should have larger napkins, or have extra napkins already at the table. This would save the waitress an extra trip to every table to disperse napkins. As with several other reviewers over past years, they still have not changed their carpet. It is still dingy, stained and peeling back. Just nasty to look at and a sign of how sanitized and clean they keep their establishment. The salt shaker cap was rusty and if someone did want to use it, they couldn't, because it had was clogged with old dried salt. The straw that they give you for your drink is too short for their cups. You have to use your fingers to pull the straw up to drink out of every time you want a drink. I very seldom rate a restaurant with only one star, but this one definitely deserves it. The one star is for the friendly waitress and the decent price of $25 for 2 people to eat on a Saturday evening. I have added a few photos including: the salt shaker, stained carpet, short straw, crab-less rangoon and a sample of their food selection. read more

Do not get carry out from this place. I was given a small styrofoam container that restaurants usually use for a order of fries. I questioned the young girl at the cash register and she said that was it. Almost $12? If you eat in it's unlimited. Nothing to put sauces in, so just didn't get any. No soup bowl. Terrible value. If they worry people get all chicken and fill their takeout then weigh it like most Chinese restaurants. What little food fit in the container was ok. Will only use the other local Chinese places from now on. read more

Love this place, amazing food never fails to surprise me even though I get the same thing every time lol, service is amazing the employees are very nice and caring, 100% would recommend read more

the food and service is great. I really enjoyed eating here. the food is very fresh. I would highly recommend eating here.

The new management is amazing. she has done so much with the place and has really cleaned up everything! Always offers to bring out new hot food for us! Highly recommend giving them another chance if you haven't been in awhile. read more

Just got back from what was supposed to be a decent birthday dinner for my son. I remember this place being so much better a few years back. Tonight, I felt like I was in an episode of kitchen nightmares and Gordon Ramsey was going to yell, "shut it down!". It was utterly disgusting. I was really disappointed and then absolutely disgusted after biting into a rancid egg roll. In all, we ate half a plate of food and drank a few sips of our drinks and walked out. The bill, $65 for a family of four. I'm still kicking myself. I could have ordered take out from Chen Garden and had WAY better food, paid $30 less, and had friendlier service. I hate having to write a review like this because my family used to go here often. I'm not sure what happened to this place over the years, but I promise...I will NEVER go back! read more

Very poor food. Staff were all teenagers that were more focused on their phones. Customer service was pitiful....good kids but looked like no owners on site. read more

We have been coming here about since they opened, they make sure the food is always hot and fresh, the sushi is usually ALWAYS out of stock, that's the only flaw. The food is amazing and the service is great and fast. Nice environment. read more

We came here as part of a family get together with my girlfriends family. It was my first time visiting this particular Chinese buffet and I am actually fairly impressed. First off the staff actually cares about the place, they were running around grabbing drink orders, grabbings plates off of tables, etc. The selection isn't huge but they do have a sushi bar, but once again without the big selection. They had roughly around 5 different sushi types to choose from and they all tasted good with the exception of one that was subpar. The tables were clean, the staff friendly, and the food actually tasted above average for a Chinese buffet. That could be due to the fact that I was starving, but hey, we all come here to exhaust that. Overall I enjoyed the buffet and the entire experience. Will definitely be returning when I'm in the area. read more

food was amazing, me and my buddy's come here all the time and the service is always great, the workers here are always nice to us and keep us coming back, we love jumbo buffet very much read more

We had decided to go away for Christmas 2018. And needed to head back home to Ohio. We had gone to mass and then googled places to eat on Christmas and we know people need and deserve to spend time with their families and were really fortunate to see this Chinese buffet open for business. The reviews were confusing as this is not our first Chinese buffet so not sure what the issue was. The parking lot was pretty full and many families were seated at tables. A buffet table with many salad options. A table of sushi and 2 with Asian dishes. Dont forget if you are really hungry that there are several dessert options and icecream Son found hibachi which is included in the price and they cooked what he requested. The staff was friendly and the food was good and the place friendly. We left a nice tip.. as these people want to celebrate with their families as well. So we disagree with the negative reviews and we have several Chinese buffets in Ohio. It's important that food is fresh and hot and the place is clean. read more

Jumbo Buffet - Many choices hot and fresh - Chinese Near Me - La Grange, Kentucky

I'm not sure why people are giving this place such poor reviews. They changed the price to $4.99 all you can eat all day. The other places in town charge that much for one item. There is still a huge selection of items and they were fresh, hot and tasty when I went today. I don't eat sushi but, I did see a large selection of items on the bar. The shrimp and seafood are my favorite and I thought they were all very good. And the real ice cream is delicious. If you have not been here yet, give them a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

If I could give no stars I would. Utterly discuting. I wanted Chinese for lunch but didn't want to drive to Louisville so I have it a second chance, everyone deserves a second chance right? WRONG. This place needs to be shut down. I was there at 12:10pm, I think that's a fairly popular lunch time, half the buffet was empty, I posted pics of this. The food was atrocious, and I was scared to try the "Mongolian grill" portion of the buffet, the chicken looked a little green to me. I'm done, won't be back. read more

I would definitely give Jumbo Buffet a no star if possible. The first few times I ate at Jumbo the food was adequate, however the service was a different story. As I went more and more I could really tell the food was losing value, and the more I went the more I told myself I wouldn't go back. What really set it off was the ice cream bar, half of the machines were broken and there was only one soft serve machine working, I got some in my cup and was about to begin eating it, right before I could get it to my mouth I smelt the stench of the sour and warm ice cream, I thought i wouldn't go back. Today, and my last time going to Jumbo, I went with my family and my grandmother found a bug in her food, the server came over, offered a discount, which was rather rude, why would I want to pay for a buffet when I only had one plate. read more

Jumbo Buffet - Chinese Near Me - La Grange, Kentucky

Not that good. It was but it has changed. It used to be one of my favorite places. The quality of food wasn't so great. Steamed dumplings were so doughy and had no taste and not thin dough like it's suppose to be, more like bread. Food looked old and over cooked and tasted like it. read more

FOOD POISONING Don't eat here..I've been a customer for years, but today is my last day. Ate here, two hours later I'm vomiting. I called for a refund, was denied and told to go see a doctor. Disgusting and disappointed. read more

food tasted like dried deer knuckles it might have taken me about 20 minutes to finish one plat. girl at the front was really rude too.

This is everything you want from a buffet under $10. Sushi and salad bar are fresh. Hot items are tasty. And there's a grill if you want them to make you a customized dish. Great value. Good for families. read more

Hands Down The Absolute Worst Chinese Buffet In All Of Kentucky. Items Are Always Old And Have Been Sitting Out For Far Too Long. They Use ALOT of MSG In Their Dishes & The Ownership is Very Suspect as They've Had Multiple Run-Ins With The Law. Everything On The Menu Is Just Gross In My Honest Opinion. Go Elsewhere in Town For Your Oriental Cravings. Places Such As Chen Garden and The Wok. Save Yourself The Time, Money & Effort and Go To One Of These Establishments Instead. read more

I really want to love this place. I mean, it's a Chinese buffet, after all, and I LOVE all things buffet.... Perhaps it was just an "off" night, but it was eerily empty (and quiet) for a "kids eat free" night. After trying the cocktail shrimp and chicken on a stick, which tasted pretty...wrong, I lost my appetite. The fried rice and lo mein noodles were bland. Overall, the only item I really enjoyed were the Chinese doughnuts. I'm giving two stars for the sweet, friendly staff and great service. Unfortunately, we won't likely be back. read more

This is the best food I've ever tasted. From classic to full on traditional. It's my go to when I'm hungry. My top 3 favorite meals are Sweet and Sour chicken, lo mein, and General Taos Chicken. But those are just my favorites. All of them are awesome- Jumbo buffet lover read more

Not the worst Chinese you will eat. Found a roach at the buffet once but they gave us a 10% discount so I was willing to overlook the added crunch. If you go at the right time you might have less roaches, as they tend to come out more at night. Also I don't recommend eating the mussels there. My friend has the stomach of a vulture and they still gave her massive diarrhea. read more

Jumbo Buffet - Their sushi looks as if various Muppets masturbated on it, but it tastes good! - Chinese Near Me - La Grange, Kentucky

Jumbo Buffet was surprisingly great! I say surprisingly because we went in about an hour before closing time. Usually when that happens the food is below average quality, but we were pleasantly surprised! My brother eats seafood & he said it was good also. If there was one thing that could've been better it would be the rice, it was probably the least fresh of everything I ate. But we were overall very pleased! read more

They have great prices and large selection of food. It's your typical Chinese buffet and I wish it was more exciting to visit. The food was average in taste and freshness. They stress tips at the hibachi when your picking up your food. It was uncomfortable at the time. I would rather pay extra for my meal to get the hibachi and not be asked for tips while I am getting my meal. read more

The bad reviews are unwarranted. The selection is great, the sushi is pretty good for a Buffett, and the price was incredible. Only 4.99 for a Sunday lunch... My family of 5 all enjoyed our meals and the service was friendly and polite. I posted several pictures of the Buffett line today so you can see how good it all looks. And real ice cream too! I highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

WOW!! This is the first time tho I can't stop commitments it's just amazing I would seriously come here more than once now

Messed up my To-Go order 3 times, By the time they got it right the rest of the food was cold. Maybe they wouldn't have as many issues if they had more adults than minors as employees. read more

Fairly impressed- not much more to say! The food was adequate, it was reasonably priced, and the service was impeccable. Very much recommend! read more

I was there in the middle of the afternoon on March 2, 2017. The food seemed fresh and well-maintained. I wish more rolls were out and that they were less dried out. You can't beat the ample amounts of good food for $4.99 and I do like to stop there when I am in LaGrange, but this time I didn't enjoy the loud music, which seemed to be for the entertainment of the staff rather than the customers. Much too loud, Black-oriented music. Not the quiet oriental music you might expect from a Chinese Restaurant. That was unpleasant. I was seated in a booth and warm air was being blown directly onto, and that was also a bit unpleasant. February 2018 edit: I've been there several times since and the unpleasant music has not been repeated. The Buffet price has increased to $5.50. Still a bargain (if you don't get a beverage). read more

I would rate the food, but after standing there for 10 min waiting to be seated while workers either tended to there kids or watching them talk to one another and ignore me I left. Not worth the time in my opinion. If service is that bad how awful is the food? read more

The food is bland, but the service is horrendous. I recently placed a delivery order which was lost in the shuffle that is their everyday chaos. I thought I would try again, placed the order online and was called to let me know they are not accepting delivery orders because they are too far behind. I have quite literally never dealt with more awful, unprofessional service. If you're willing to go into the restaurant, which frankly resembled an out of date casino, then you will be sorely disappointed by the food. If you are wanting good Chinese in La Grange go to Chen Garden. The only advantage of Jumbo Buffet is that they deliver, which they fail on consistently, read more

Great service . 5 stars. Love all you can eat. Decent priced buffet with a good range of food. From noodles to desserts. Will eat again
