We've also ordered delivery, and if they don't have a driver available, they've used DoorDash drivers instead. The nice thing is that our total cost didn't change, which we really appreciate! Whether we order takeout or dine in, we've never been disappointed. The food has consistently been good, the prices are reasonable, and there's plenty to choose from.

NEVER AGAIN. I went in to make a "to-go" order. The lady (I…read morebelieve she was the owner) who took my order informed me that soup wasn't included in the combination dinner plates - but the price was the same. ??? She was fairly argumentative, but she smiled the whole time. Asked if I could order soup to go (just to see what the reason was for no soup on the combos) and she said I COULD order soup...so my theory of "no soup because they didn't have containers for it" went out the window. I did NOT order soup. Ordered extra beef in the beef and broccoli plate $4 extra. Well I would hate to see what it would have looked like without the extra beef. There is NO way extra beef was added. The general's chicken was mostly breading, as was the sweet and sour pork. The rice was awful. Very mushy and not tasty. All in all, the food was awful. Asked for a glass of Chardonnay while I waited. I was informed I could have white zin or red wine. Most definitely will not be patronizing this establishment again due to poor customer service, unfair pricing, and low-quality food.

Lots of parking in the lot for this buffet. The price has gone up from 6 years ago ... it's around $14 per person now. The selection of food is still just one steam table, but there still plenty to choose from and some unusual dishes I've not seen before. I'm here with my crew and they love buffets, cause these guys can eat all they want and everybody is happy to find something they like to eat. There are no American choices here like some buffets, like pizza and french fries. Some of the dishes I'd not seen before at buffets are these chopped oysters served on foil, or boneless ribs (really just sliced up pork shoulder cooked Chinese way), and steamed clams. The green beans were so fresh and crunchy cooked perfect. I was impressed all the food was cooked so well, compared to come Chinese buffets. The selection is smaller here but the quality is better than most. Everybody left full and happy and this is right near the hotel we're staying, so we might even come back again!

Fast forward over a decade later and my coworkers wouldn't stop raving about this place. Hard pass. Then my friends and I wanted a girls night and they wouldn't stop talking about this place either.

The crab ragoons are the prefect pairing. I haven't tried anything here that didn't delight and fill me in the most innocent way possible. Service is good. I'm ultra sad when they're closed for extended periods of time, but appreciate that they give their staff adequate time off.

Updated as of 08/22/26-…read more Gave this place another try. My experience this go round was disappointing. Came with my hubby and our toddler. We were sat quickly, we ordered shortly after looking over the menu. We were told the sushi would be 20-30 minutes because they had one chef and a big party sat down before us, not a problem we understood and ordered anyway. I got my son an order of plain chow mein .... It was very bland and the noodles were overcooked. Luckily my toddler ate it anyways. My hubby and I both got their sushi dinner special A which was 2 rolls an order of nigiri and came with soup, edamame, or salad so I got the miso soup and a side of edamame and my hubby got miso soup. We got waters to drink. And their water tasted weird like dirty tap water or something so we were gonna order sodas and a juice for our son.... Waited for our server to come to the table so we could order.... He didn't come check on us at all. So I went up to their to go counter and ordered our drinks. They were out of apple juice so we chose orange juice for our little and it was lukewarm. He didn't drink it. We got our appetizers... the edamame tasted like dirt, covered in table salt. The miso soup was actually delicious but the cups were so full they were spilling. My son spilled my husbands soup all over so we cleaned it up, had to go back to the to go counter to ask for more napkins.... Because our server never came back to check on us. We got it cleaned up so crisis averted... Our sushi came out and one of the rolls I ordered was HUGE so much rice! The smaller roll I ate one piece and the crystal shrimp in it tasted like it was cooked awhile ago maybe that morning I'm unsure but it tasted off and wasn't a good thing. I didn't eat anymore of that roll as my instinct told me not to. The other roll was good, the nigiri was good but lacked flavor. I got the upside down shrimp with crab. My hubbys nigiri looked old and smelled off so he didn't eat his yellowtail. The rolls he got were small and again lacked flavor. We waited and waited for our server to come back to the table and it took about 20 minutes for him to come back- bring us 2 boxes and the check. No refills, no taking or any dishes. So we paid and left. We clean up after our kiddo when we go out and do our best to ensure the table is easy to clean for them. But we will not be back. It's a shame because it used to be so delicious and the staff used to be so nice! Unsure what happened but if you are looking to go I would recommend going elsewhere. Not worth the drive or hype these days.

After a long day of work, the crew was pretty tired and didn't feel like going out for dinner, so I…read moresuggested, I'll go get some take out Chinese food over at this Shanghai Express I saw, located between the Anytime Fitness gym and the Mexican burrito joint. I know when you see the word "express" in the restaurant name, I'm not gonna expect some kinda authentic Asian experience. It's gonna be fast food American Chinese kinda food. I'll just get the food and bring it back to the hotel and we'll eat there. Going in, there's actually space to eat there if you want. Not a big dining area but decent enough. The menus are all up on the walls as well as online. Amazing this Chinese restaurant has an actual working website! Most Chinese places have no website, or just basic to place orders. Placing the orders was no prob. I see they have a lot of "bowl" dishes sort of set up for the single diner. I think a lot of workers come here to get food. There's a ton of workers of all types in this area, but no one actually lives out here by the Gigafactory and related places. I ordered, general chicken, house chow mien, a couple of orders of pot stickers, honey walnut shrimp and house fried rice. That should be enough food. I didn't have to wait too long and the food was packed and ready. Good thing the hotel is just a few minutes away and the food stayed nice and hot. We unpacked the food and used some plates from the hotel. I pretty much know what the crew likes, so everybody was happy. The general chicken was a pretty good version. Decent food for a place out here at the industrial park.

The food was fine, but it honestly reminded me of lower quality Chinese food you might find at a gas station. It filled me up, but the flavor was nothing special or memorable.

As for the ambiance, it was very typical and nothing stood out. Simple seating and a basic setup, which matched the no frills feel of the place. Overall, decent service and fast food, but the food quality and atmosphere keep it at a solid three star experience.
