The first piece of chicken I had from the buffet had a long bone in it , becareful eating the chicken! The food was cold and it wasn't great for a Chinese buffet joint. Definitely way better tasting in Jersey. The only thing I actively liked was the Idaho cooked potatoes. read more

Li's Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

See all

Good buffet. Typical Chinese fare. Good prices. Food temps were pretty good. All food I tasted was what I expected. We came on a Sunday and it wasn't very crowded; our party of 5 was seated in a couple minutes. Will definitely be coming back. read more

We arrived to find a mostly empty dining room about 730 pm. They were open til 9 pm. The food was good, but I could tell it was little dried out from sitting. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The dining room very clean and soft music was playing so it was a very relaxing dinner out. I bet lunch time would be more fresh and lively. Overall a good experience, but I would come earlier next time. read more

Food was really cold. $40 for 2 kids and 2 adults with only 2 drinks and not counting tip. Won't be back.

Went there Thursday afternoon. The food had good flavor, but was old and cold. The buffet looked better than the quality.

We were welcomed in late on the Fourth of July and allowed to eat! We had been searching for an open restaurant for an hour and we were hungry and tired. Thank you so much for your kindness! On top of all of this, the food is delicious! read more

The service was very polite! It is fair priced and well worth it! The sushi is amazing.

Great buffet!!! My family and friends have been going to their restaurant now for about 15 years + or -. Best restaurant in town. Very clean!!!  This is where the locals and the out of towners go and everyone knows your name. The food is great with all fresh vegetables, no msg, American and Chinese food. Great prices and awesome friendly people too.  Kid's love it here too. Large parking lot which is free and that's great for in town. What more could you ask for. They also have carry out and delivery. They are handicap accessible and considerate enough to help people. They have coffee, tea, sodas and Hershey's ice cream for all the ice cream lovers out there. They've got awesome chicken wings too. If you let them know of any special needs you have, they'll accommodate. Try it, you'll be glad you did!!! :) read more

That guy who wrote about friendly service? He was right. You are always greeted like a long lost friend. I take out from them often. Food is always hot, and good, and reasonably priced. When I want Chinese in Gettysburg, I go to Li's. read more

Very good buffet with fresh green beans. Great general tso's chicken and mocha cake.

This is the second time I came here, the last time was last year, and the food wasn't as good as it was last year. The chicken and beef was dry and the sushi didn't look appetizing. I wont be coming back next year. read more

Li's Buffet - Looks delicious, right? WRONG. All of it was dry or tough. - Chinese Near Me - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

The food was decent, and the wait staff was very accommodating and kind with our children (which we really appreciate!). Kids also ate free, which made it more affordable! read more

There was a wide array of delicious Chinese food, sushi, salad, and especially dessert. Our son loved the General Chicken, and our daughter enjoyed the sweet and sour chicken. The restaurant was bright and clean on a main street of Gettysburg, a pleasant location to dine. The biggest highlight was the kind owner, who took the time to speak with us and showed us a fun trick with a dollar bill. Highly recommended! read more

Menu has changed and food looks and tastes horrible. It's absurd how every other Chinese buffet has crawfish and actually decent food for $12 + drink a person. STOP don't waste your money or time on this horrible place and hopefully the owners will go back to China and learn how to create a better selection of food and learn how to actually cook said food. read more

Everything here was delicious and filling. I know what people say about MSG but when you're strung out sometimes the best cure is Lo Mien. The waiters here are always on their phones but I understand, sometimes you just got to hustle, boo. I wasn't sure if this place was BYOB or not but it was by the time I stumbled out. My only gripe is that even though they say you can't get a doggie bag, they never mentioned anything about securing certain food items in your purse. I feel like if that's a policy then it should be mentioned before I waste my time bringing my Ziploc freezer bags. I'm also happy to say that my fortune cookie came true, with the addition of the words "In Bed" My fortune was "Sunshine will enter when you least expect it". Only his name was Greg. All in All, five stars. read more

I don't go to a buffet for the ambiance, unless I'm in Vegas, and I don't expect Maine lobster to be included in a $12.99 special when you're in Gettysburg. If you keep in mind that Li's is a buffet and not a gourmet $35 per plate venue, I believe you will agree with me that you will find Li's to offer the best value around. The food is far above average, both in quality and selection. The decor is certainly outdated, but I find that to be part of the subtle charm of the place. I especially enjoy the coconut shrimp, the variety of sushi choices, and the cream cheese wontons. I stumbled across Li's by accident about a year ago and have yet to be disappointed in my ten or so visits since. Go there for the good food, not the decor, and you will not be disappointed. read more

I try to give bad places more then one shot, giving them the benefit of the doubt. I have been here 4 times now, and NEVER again will I waste my money or my stomach lining on this place. The selection isn't very big, but its not a big place. However, what they do have is just awful. If its not cold, its dried out and hard as a rock. Anything with seafood in it smelled quite strong, too. Never a good sign. They have someone on site to make sushi, if you can call it that. There might be one or two sad looking pieces sitting out, I would not recommend trying them. Just awful. The things that are supposedly tempura fried are tasteless little chunks of batter with a variety of sticky sweet and nasty sauces. In conclusion I am very sad that this is the best Chinese Buffet that Gettysburg has to offer. There are other Chinese places in town, from now I will just order a variety of dishes from a place that knows what they are doing, instead of trying to make do with this garbage. read more

Their coconut shrimp is my favorite! Also the new sushi chef(s) are great! The food is hot & delicious during the lunch or dinner prime time hours. A fair price for an all you can eat Chinese buffet. Friendly staff too. read more

Disgusting. We all almost immediately were running to the bathroom. Slimy mystery meat, wilted veggies. Just greasy and gross. read more

Li's Buffet - Chinese Near Me - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Decided to give it a try after a long day of walking around,was tired and hangry. Your typical America Chinese buffet. The manger/owner( I guess) was very polite and very attentive to us which goes a long was in my eyes! The food was good and a good selection of it. I would recommend it for a fast meal that will fill u up. The food was hot and didn't seem as though it had sit out there all day and just been stirred up. Definitely would return!! read more

A nice selection of food, and everything we tried was very tasty. The staff was pleasant, and we had a good experience.

This used to be my favorite restaurant to go to, now its one I stay away and avoid like a disease. The food used to be awesome and the service impeccable, now it feels like everyone here stopped caring about the customers and quality of food. Gave it a last chance the other day and everyone was on their cellphones and the food was awfully cold. Never again!! read more

Decided to go in with my husband for dinner around 5. Not too fancy but I'm no snob, good food is where you least expect it but this isn't one of those places. The selections not very good to begin with but on top of that half the food I tried was cold. The waitresses were sitting around on their phones so there were no drink refills. After we tried a few things and didn't find one thing we enjoyed we waited 5 minutes for a waitress to come by then went up to get our bill. We told the man at the register how half of what we tried was cold, he then told us "it must be a difference of opinions because other customers have said it was the best they've ever had" and rung us up for 27 dollars. 27 dollars for 2 plates of cold food. Save your money and skip this place! read more

Great Food!!! For the money you cannot beat it!! The entire Staff treated me like I was Family! I will definitely be back.

October 2017. Food was mediocre to awful. Sushi not labeled. Lo mein was greasy. Fried rice salty. No fresh fruit, canned. Spring rolls small and not much in them. Just did not taste right for either of us. Left after hardly eating. Polite staff but would not go back again. - from Greater Boston area. read more

It's been awhile because there closed write now but went often and The Who family alway enjoyed

I'm not sure why this place has a better rating than 2 stars; that's all it deserves. We are visiting the area & thought we would try it out. While not nasty, the food was mediocre at best. I definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for decent Chinese food. read more

Food was not fresh. 'Special' Alaskan crab legs were disappointing, probably from frozen cold storage. We asked for fresh dumplings, because the ones on the buffet were gray and dead. When we asked for new ones, it seemed to cause an issue in the kitchen. But they did, and their best effort was sad. I love dumplings, but these made me think of dog meat mixed with some scallions. Alas, they never refilled the dipping sauce on the buffet, so I got to experience the full array of taste blandness. Place was dirty. Servers were loudly declaiming things in Chinese across the room. read more

It USED to be alright, the food like the egg rolls,shrimp, or anything fried is always really burned. The food is not fresh and looks and taste like its been there for a while. Food is most of the time cold. read more

We came to Gettysburg for a short tour and didn't realize there is an amazing buffet here in the town. My son's likes the amazing food here and the quality and ambient is the key. The owner's Li is very welcoming and he greets all customers. Two thumbs up for sure read more

Li's is a very nice buffet. It's not a huge buffet or a 5 star Chinese restaurant but it is a good family buffet. It is best to visit during peak times as with any buffet so the product turnover is better. Reasonably priced for a buffet. Frequent diners can also take advantage of the buy 9 get one free card. The staff are very attentive and nice. We have been visiting Mr. Li and his family for years and will continue to do so. read more

It has been forever since I had experienced amazing customer service. Our waitress Joyce was extremely pleasant and helpful. My son's shoe fell off while trying to escape the high chair. She stopped what she was doing and came to help. Jay was an outstanding host. He made jokes as he showed us to our table. The owner saw my son was getting loud and brought him over something to play with so my husband and I could eat. I will defiantly come back. It's worth the forty-five minute drive! read more

Had a wonderful Birthday meal at Li's Buffet with family and friends and they made a crab out of a cucumber for the birthday lady! The food was fresh, hot and tasty! The price was Great $10.99 for all that! They took a birthday picture to put on their wall with all the rest. Thanks Li for a wonderful night we will be back soon. read more

Myself husband & teen daughter went for dinner as we have visited a few other times all other times were tolerable n basically bcus its local n convenient! Tonight was HORRIBLE!!! ALL FOOD was cold old dry & hard ,had not been refreshed nor stirred n a while smh i tld our waitress Linda she tld a gentleman who then bought out 2 fresh items smh basically i ate Chinese donuts for dinner smh i was tld by a employee that i needed to stir the food n get it from the bottom im like "r u kidding me?" If my hub wasnt there i would have walked out! Im sooo DISAPPOINTED & STILL HUNGRY!! DO NOT GO THERE read more

Clean, well lit, nice seating. Most of the food was edible. Some of the meats were cold I.e the chicken skewers.

I like the fact that there was not an overwhelming selection. There were fresh clams without any sauce, which was okay by me, since there was plenty of hot sauce and soy sauce to season it up. The white rice was pristine, meaning that the Americans, or locals, don't touch that stuff, only the fried foods, I guess. The only stir fry dish that I tried was chicken with onions, there was plenty of char from the wok that made it taste good, but unfortunately there was a little too much sweet brown sauce for the stir fry to stand on it's own. The fried dumplings were right on target, and the sesame bean balls were petite and very delicious, ate four of them, which was a mistake, but a pleasant one. This is a nice place, which doesn't try to overwhelm you with variety, but keeps it simple, fresh, and clean. The only suggestion I might recommend to the management is to have a few more vegetable selections, meaning some stir-fried Chinese vegetables. read more
