For a buffet / eat all you can place, the taste is good; could be better... but it is subjective for each person. Service was great as staff keeps checking your table for plates to get and drinks for refill. Lighting could be better and cleanliness is good but could have some improvement too. Overall, nice place if you are looking for a variety of food to eat and if you are planning to eat a lot.

I'm vegetarian and I really liked the buffet made to order wok. I picked out my vegetables and tofu and noodles and the chef made a fresh stir fry chow mein. Was good and priced reasonably. The rest of the buffet doesn't have vegetarian options except for maybe one item -- I can't remember fest it was -- maybe broccoli.

I'm so happy to have found this place! All the food is kept extremely moist and easy to chew. I love steamed food making crispy coatings nice and mushy. Everything here is soft. All the meat here is smooth like peanut butter. So easy to spread. I love the large quantities of small portions! I think it helps keep the food fresh for hours. I will say the service is a little slow. As I was reapplying my lipstick, I accidentally dropped it in with the boiled shrimp. I tried fishing it out but the tray was so hot the juices were burning my hand. After a few minutes it just looked more like a cioppino so I left it alone. Nobody came to help me get my lipstick back (which wasn't cheap)
