Empire Buffet has made some key improvements as of late. That calls for a star bump up…read more The drinkware has been replaced! There are some new cool lights near the buffet and checkout area.

If you're craving legit flavor and spice in West Texas, Szechuan House is a must-try!…read more First off, the Crab Rangoon deliciousness, Crispy, golden, and filled with real crab, not that fake stuff. You can actually taste the seafood, and the creamy filling hits that perfect savory-sweet balance. Just need a little more and it'd be perfect for an appetizer! Next up, the Crispy Szechuan Chicken -- super crunchy, flavorful, and brings spiciness . It's delicious but definitely on the spicy and salty side, so if you're not big on spice, consider sharing or trying something milder for an appetizer. And the Braised Beef Noodle Soup? Comfort in a bowl. Rich, aromatic broth, tender beef that falls apart, and noodles with some bok choy!

Surprisingly good Szechuan-based Chinese. Seats at most, a dozen and does a carryout business. We…read morehad carry out, found the food to be great, and it wasn't expensive. We expected less and got more. Good parking, friendly staff, a good variety of food, some vegetarian, some meat/chicken/fish. It's not fancy, with counter-only service. We found their phone off the hook, but when we showed up, service was reasonably fast and we liked the food. They have a variety of fridge-based cold drinks. It's better than average with a Szechuan heat-based twist, if you want. You can order chilis on the side if you like. Good value, good taste.

A ridiculously small portion of Mongolian Beef in a take out container. It was no where near fresh and bland in taste. The crispy spring rolls were the smallest I've ever had at a Chinese restaurant. For over $30 it was a complete ripoff for the amount of food you get and the quality. Absolutely will not be back.

A second trailer just like is on the Lovington Highway near Green Meadows Park. I always go for the #15 shrimp fried rice ($14). Their fried rice is the best in town. The amount of shrimp is fairly decent. I came kind of an off hour at close to 3 PM, so the food probably wasn't the freshest, but it was still really tasty. The shrimp is a bit overcooked. Takeout boxes come with an egg roll, fork, napkins, and condiments. Service is always fantastic. The guy who was at this trailer is often at the Pandita Express #2 trailer. He speaks both Spanish and English. So here's how it works here: Order. Pay. You'll be assigned a buzzer. Food usually is prepared very quickly. Perfect for my hangry butt.
