I decided to give M Kitchen Buffet a try after reading the Yelp reviews, and I'm glad I did. There…read morearen't a lot of great Chinese buffet options in the area, so I came in with reasonable expectations, and this place exceeded them. Before I get into the review, I think it's only fair to mention that I rate buffets differently than traditional restaurants. My expectations are based on other buffets, where freshness, consistency, food rotation, and value matter just as much as presentation. This feels more like a small, family-owned neighborhood buffet than a large commercial chain, and I actually think that's part of its charm. The buffet isn't huge, but I'd rather have a smaller selection that's done well than a massive buffet where half the food has been sitting under heat lamps for hours. I sampled most of the buffet, and overall I was impressed. My favorite dishes were the beef chow fun noodles, chow mein, honey pork, fried rice, teriyaki chicken, and the spicy chicken wings. The wings were especially good, they were nice and meaty with a great flavor and weren't loaded with fat like buffet wings sometimes are. Other solid choices were the sweet and sour pork, broccoli beef, and fried green beans. The only items that didn't really stand out to me were the vegetable egg rolls and crab rangoons. They weren't bad by any means, just average compared to the rest of the buffet. One thing that really stood out was how well the buffet was maintained. A staff member was constantly cleaning, rotating trays, and refilling food, so everything stayed warm and fresh throughout my visit. I never came across anything that was cold or looked like it had been sitting for a long time. The soda station was clean, drinks were self-serve, and the staff was friendly whenever I interacted with them. Most of the customers seemed to be ordering takeout rather than dining in, and after seeing the portions, I completely understand why. The takeout containers were packed so full they were almost difficult to close. For the price, the value here is outstanding. The only reason I'm not giving this place five stars comes down to presentation. The dining room itself is clean, but it's very simple. From the drink station you can see directly into part of the kitchen, and the plumbing underneath the soda and ice machine is exposed, which makes the restaurant feel less polished. I didn't see anything that made me question the cleanliness or food safety; it was more of an aesthetic issue than a sanitation concern, but it does affect the overall atmosphere. That said, when I judge this place as a buffet rather than comparing it to a full-service restaurant, the food quality, freshness, service, and value easily outweigh those cosmetic issues. Would I come back? Absolutely. If you're looking for an affordable Chinese buffet with consistently fresh food, friendly staff, generous portions, and flavors that honestly surprised me, M Kitchen Buffet is definitely worth checking out.

We read the reviews and thought we would try this place out. We will not be coming back. The price…read moreis good, but the buffet options are all super greasy and just kind of meh. You can literally see the grease on the walls. Not the kind of place I would go out of my way for.

I've been here four times and this time was the best…read more They had steamed fish and baked fish, as well as other seafood. Service was friendly. There were not as many people in the restaurant this time. The food tasted better, and I got more fish. Gyoza and spring rolls were available and good. I didn't have soup or bao buns, which is unusual, but I felt happier after eating here. Restroom was sufficient. I'm not sure they are concerned about the appearance of the restaurant beyond what the food touches. I'll likely return because the people around me like this place.

I am wondering why yelp has this restaurant as Sushi House, when the outside and price list shows…read moreSushi Villa. AYCE sushi, handrolls and some Chinese dishes. They have a bar, which is the best place to get a seat so you can be in front of the sushi conveyor. Husband ordered the tuna handroll, seems like it is not placed in the conveyor. You do not pay extra for it but you can tip. Sushi rolls tasted good, but the protein on top is really thin. I felt I was eating mostly rice with sauce or imitation crab. Protein on nigiri was thin as well. I'm unsure if getting a couple of nigiri and combining the protein while ignoring the other portion of rice would be a good resolution to this as the rice will be wasted. Aside from the fried shrimp and fried chicken wings, I did not enjoy the cooked selection. They have ice cream. You basically go to the freezer and grab your own with a scooper. It was unappetizing because the scooper is dipped in water which did not appear clean. This is understandable though, as you were supposed to dip the scooper in the water to rinse it off so the flavor does not get mixed with the other. Unclear water is just not a good sight to see in a restaurant.

Wild Chinese Buffet did NOT disappoint! The service is…read moreamazing, and the couple running the place are always so nice when we come in! I loaded my container up with spicy Szechuan chicken, garlic chicken, Mongolian beef, and white rice. Everything was fresh, hot, and seriously flavorful. You can tell the food isn't just sitting there, it actually tastes like it was just made. It helps when you actually see the cooks changing out the food regularly! And let's talk about portions... they PACK those containers to the point they barely close definitely got my money's worth and then some. For the price, if you're anywhere near this spot, this is the move. Big Back verified I'll definitely be coming back again!

For a small buffet, it's a great deal. Heavy on chicken dishes and fried offerings. The one soup…read morewas egg drop, and it wasn't too salty. People in my family also liked the stir-fried beef with wide rice noodles, kung pao chicken, and whole pieces of fried chicken. The one desert was sesame balls. There were also tempura-style veggies and fries. No fresh vegetables or fruit, but they had stir-fried broccoli. There were also egg rolls and crab rangoon. Simple tables and chairs, 2 bathrooms (with disposable seat covers available), and disposable plates, forks, cups, etc. Floor was just a little sticky. You just walk right in, grab a plate, and start loading up. Once you sit down, someone will bring drinks. While there, many people came in for the to-go options. When we went to pay our bill, they also offered a $4.95 kids price. What? Not sure how they survive! Would definitely come back if I were a local.

Ended up at K-Town KBBQ & Hot Pot after making a trip to pick up the SO from a car show in…read moreStockton, ironic I know. The car show happened to take place in the same parking lot as K-Town, so we just decided to have dinner here instead of sitting in the drive-thru line at In-N-Out. The inside is modernly lit with lots of wood motif and black. Oversized lightbulbs filled with faux flower petals hang from the ceiling. A random cartoon plays on the wall TV. For a weekday dinner bbq, we paid about $37 per person with no additional hot pot add-on. We got a good spread of drinks (they have boba!), but they are also an additional cost. The AYCE includes access to the buffet area, which has sushi (sashimi!), buffalo wings, seafood boil, a bunch of fried/breaded offerings, and all the sauces/accoutrements for both hotpot and kbbq. I was impressed by the short rib marinade here. The beef was meaty with a good texture. Some of the cubed meats were a little tough but could be due to the way we cooked it. The pork belly was sliced too thin for my liking (too bacony). We got the cheese sticks from the buffet and reheated them over the grill and made our own version of a Chili's Triple Dipper. Service was fine. We placed our orders with a guy and he would come around occasionally for a grill change and taking away plates. Between the two KBBQ AYCE I've been to in Stockton recently, I think K-Town wins. Overall, I came out stuffed and would definitely return.

Finally getting to write a review on one of our Korean BBQ faves…read more Hubby picked to go here for his birthday this last Tuesday. We got there at 530pm and it hadn't gotten too busy at that point. Greeted and seated immediately. We usually don't do the hot pot side (we will try it some day) but the variety of meats were exactly what we normally order. We usually only do beef, but they have seafood, chicken and pork too. The salad and hot bar had quite a few options, and again I always defer to my favorites. Kim Chi, Pickled Daikon, etc etc. you'll have to check it out. Pretty big restaurant, feels spacious, and you're not right on top of your neighbor. We love that we can stay local and not have to travel to Elk Grove/Stockton Our server was friendly and attentive. Be back again soon

Everything was well taken care of. This is exactly why we keep coming back to this location - the hardworking employees, the friendly service, and the consistently good experience. We will definitely be back again!

The review is for this specific location only. I don't know how the other location operate but from…read morethe experience here, we sure as hell wont be checking the other one. So we came in last night around 7pm bc we were in the area and my son was craving sashimi. Sat down and ordered a bunch of rolls with some sashimi. The food was decent with the price. We've been at many sushi places from the bay to central valley and gotta be honest, the price and portion size here is unbeatable especially the sashimi pieces. They were sliced twice as thick as other places. Now everything was going well until we paid the bill and walked to our car. As we got in our car about to leave, a kitchen staff with apron came in the restroom and walked out without washing his hand. Then another one came in to the other stall, walked out, light a cigaret and smoke for a bit before got called in the kitchen again, of course wasn't washing his hand. Im not sure which station those two were working in the kitchen but Im sure as hell not coming back to eat my raw fish being handle by those hands.

(We have eaten a few times at dinner but I was curious as to how different would the lunch be but it didn't appear any different, but then it could have been the Memorial Day special is the same as dinner offerings). I used to be able to eat a ton at buffets but I'm much older now and usually one full plate is enough. I tried a little of each of my favorite foods, ribs, dim sum, fried shrimp, walnut shrimp, bok Choy, green beans, salmon, egg rolls, Mongolian beef, stuffed shrimp, sushi and dessert watermelon and a creamy strawberry dessert! Wow, it was all very good, I would have liked to go for seconds to try more different foods but I was full. Gohan is a really great deal considering that Vegas buffets cost you $80 plus for a feast like this. If you love Asian food and especially seafood, this is the place to try! They have plenty of seating and the table staff are on top of clearing off dishes from your table.

Heads up with the snails since they braised it with a star anise flavor, never had it like that before. I came in for lunch and will have to come back for dinner one night to see the other offerings. Not bad at all.
