    amazing food and service!! especially loved the crab rangoon and hawaii roll!! however... this man sat down at my table halfway through the meal and was really strange... he ended up eating all of the rice that fell off my plate and taking my straw wrappers and used napkins and stuffed them in his pocket. besides that, great experience! will eat again!

    Sushi rolls.

    Yummy Chen's is a wonderful place to eat. The food is very good, especially the sushi! I have tried almost all of the sushi rolls on the menu and each one is mouth watering. The presentation of the food is beautiful also! Such polite wait staff who are fast and efficient! Also during these social distancing times, I felt very safe. Masks are to be worn in and I was seated away from others. It was a very enjoyable dining experience.

    Ate here for lunch. They have a variety of lunch specials for $8 or $9. They also have a 2 roll sushi special for lunch for $8, 3 rolls for $12. I had the lunch special Kung Pao chicken, which comes with 2 crab Rangoon and choice of hot and sour soup or egg drop soup. I had the hot and sour soup, which was quite flavorful. The Kung Pao chicken was also delicious! Lunch specials are available on Mondays and Wednesdays-Saturdays. Not open on Tuesdays.

    The crispy salmon skin roll included strips of deep fried salmon skin--or seafood "bacon."

    I searched Yelp! for Macomb buffets and this place came up. However, Yummy Chen's has no buffet service and that turned to be wonderful because the lunch was so much better than what a buffet would have provided. What it has is a large menu of Far East entrees, reasonably priced, with a variety of lunch specials. Egg Drop soup delightfully surprised with crunchy water chestnut pieces in an egg broth. However, the meal standout was the crispy skin salmon roll. It wowed in presentation and taste. The accompanying strips of crispy fried salmon were like eating seafood bacon. It all was indescribably delicious. My main entree, the Yummy Combination, was steak, shrimp, chicken, crab and veggies in a brown sauce. While it was tasty it couldn't compete with the unique crispy salmon skin. I also enjoyed excellent service in a cozy, comfortable spot that could do duty for dates, business meetings, solo, or group meals.

    Two types of sushi with an egg roll to-go.

    Good place. My mom would definitely reuse the tupperware. If it can be microwaved, it's dishwasher safe.

    I love their food. It's always cooked just right and the prices are about as average as other Chinese take out.

    Love this place! My daughter broke her arm and we were at the hospital all day. When we left we…read morewere all so hungry. It was 8 pm and my daughter found Happy Sushi on line and said let's try it. We were worried about getting there so close to close 8:30, but hoped for the best. They welcomed us in! It was very clean and organized. Not a lot of seating. We got several sushi rolls, noodles and some ramen. It was excellent. The owned stopped by the table to talk to my daughter with the busted arm and made her feel better. We will definitely be making stops here in the future. Thanks so much Happy sushi!!!!!

    I really can't overstate how bad this sushi was. I am certainly hoping we make it through the next…read more24 hours without getting sick. There was definitely some "bad" fish (tasted old) in the rolls, which fell completely apart the moment you attempted to pick them up. Ambiance? The large bowl of rice sitting outside the bathroom was a bad look. The server was nice enough, but the best service in the world could not offset the poor quality of the food. I have had better sushi from the grocery store and from Sam's Club. The saddest part? I had been wanting to try "the best sushi in Springfield" for the last two years! For your reference- we had 4 rolls- spicy tuna, Alaska roll (salmon), French kiss (shrimp tempura, crab, salmon), and Caribbean orgazam (soft shell crab, salmon). There was not a good roll in the bunch. Seriously, this is not the place to go for sushi.

    My husband and I visited Crazy Buffet (aka Panda Buffet) in Galesburg, Illinois on a Sunday night,…read morearound 7 pm, in late Sept, 2024. The restaurant was scheduled to close at 9 pm; the rest of the neighborhood was already quite sleepy. All of the food that both my husband and I ate was quite tasty, including Asian buffet favorites such as Pepper Chicken; Mongolian beef; crab Rangoon; California sushi; and far more. They also offered some unique and tasty items, such as fried zucchini slices. They also had tubs of creamy and yummy ice cream for dessert. We rate the quality of the food that we ate as 4.5/5.0. However, by 7 pm, the restaurant was already winding down and many of the food trays were already near empty and weren't being replenished so there were many food offerings that we didn't get the chance to try. Our rating for variety is thus only 2/5. Service was okay (3/5). The waitress brought us our requested waters, and checked in once to see if everything was okay. The overall ambiance was of a typical Chinese buffet restaurant, and was maintained well. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. However, staff started to wind down the day at 8 pm, including mopping the floors of the main buffet area, the check-out counter, and restrooms while we were still eating and needing to walk in those areas! It was an hour to closing time! Finally, the restaurant was a good value for all-you-can-eat for $12.99/person at dinner, before tax and tip. We would return but probably earlier in the day to have full access to the variety of food choices and to ensure that we didn't interfere with the cleaning at closing.

    I've been to this buffet a few times over the years, I live over an hour away but my family and I…read moremake the travel once in a while. We decided to come by today after we traveled to Galesburg, but unfortunately a disability I have kicked in upon arrival and I got sick. I didn't eat a single bite of food at the restaurant, I got a soda while the rest of my family got full meals. Well, my dad called the waitress over near the end of everyone else eating to say that I hadn't eaten a single bite; the waitress replied very rudely telling us we were at fault for not telling them I wasn't going to eat before we checked in to the restaurant. Legitimately, I got to the table with my family, didn't sit down, and immediately went to the bathroom and got sick. When she told us we would get charged for my non-meal, my dad responded by saying we'd pay it and we didn't want to argue. She continued multiple times telling us to basically kick rocks. After around ten minutes of my family finishing their meals and deciding the food wasn't worth the treatment, another waitress comes by and takes my "meal" off the ticket, saying something along the lines of "We didn't want to, but management said to not charge you" I didn't have any food, but besides this experience with the staff my family members said the food wasn't nearly as good as it has been years prior. My dad and my partner are usually ones to get multiple plates, but they both only got one and didn't even finish what they got. My dad said there's no way he'd drive as long as we did to have this again, when in the past we would make the trip SPECIFICALLY for this buffet. Nothing else, just for this place. This was a really disappointing experience, and it very much gave "money hungry" vibes. I'd get charging me if I'd eaten ANYTHING. I didn't have a single bite. I hope this was a one-off experience and the staff doesn't act this way with other, worse off customers.
