    I ate here around 7pm on Saturday. Being in a smaller town, I was concerned about the…read morequality/selection (since buffets are dependent on high 'foot traffic'). In this sense, I didn't need to worry. Many of the traditional Chinese buffet items were available (soups, noodles, rice, shirimp, etc.) and some other touches that cater to those who enjoy kimchi, seaweed salad, small octopus, rice roll ("sushi"), and lychees. The quality of the food rivaled the quality in buffets I've visited that were two or three times the size. The foods were generally soy sauce/fish sauce based. I appreciated that approach (over some buffets that I have seen who use a lot of butter/mayonnaise to try to cater to perceived local preferences). Temperature was neither hot nor cold, though it is more difficult to regulate temperature in buffet food than individually prepared meals. As pleasantly surprised as I was with my ability to be satisfied with the food options and quality, I was equally disappointed with the customer service. It lacked the formal service of a larger restaurant and the friendly service of a small town restaurant. There is more to serving (even in a buffet) than placing customers in seats and clearing plates. I was not welcomed, rather asked "how many" and given a negative reaction when I said I that I was the only one in my party. The same reaction was given to the gentleman who arrived after I arrived (also a party of one). Each of us was "seated" by having a silverware roll thrown on the table (not placed pleasantly on the table or any question to see if the seat "suits the needs of the customer"). The drink order was accurate (I received a large/oversized glass of iced tea), but the service lacked the hospitality taught to servers in larger establishments (or tends to happen naturally in smaller town eateries). There was a little congestion at the buffet that I didn't expect as the staff slowly collected called-in 'To Go' orders from the buffet. It probably helps turn-over the buffet foods, but did make popular items difficult to access for a while. Plates were collected efficiently. The bill was brought at an appropriate time. Environmentally, the room was a bit dark and warm (reflecting the hot, humid day), but not unpleasant. The review (3 stars) was an average of the 4 (I rarely give 5s) I give the food and the 2 I give the service. Hospitality, however, can be a day-to-day experience. On the day I visited, the person who appeared to be the main server, seemed to be very involved with whatever she was listening to in her headphones. We customers seemed to be an unwelcome disruption to whatever she was doing on her headphones. Perhaps, it was a bad day to visit. Since I am local and can cook many of these dishes, in the future I will generally opt to cook these dishes at home. However, I do appreciate the restaurant's contribution to the diversity of the food scene in the area. I was impressed to see kimchi and other less common buffet dishes (even uncommon in larger buffets), giving the place a uniqueness that I appreciate. I just hope to see improvements in the hospitality. The food was good enough for me to have hope and the hospitality I received was tolerable in a pinch.

    Rude service and food was like rubber They were gloves…read morecover in food from other people plates when getting drinks for other customers
