    So glad I didn't listen to the reviews. I avoided trying out this place for a year because of it. I don't find $20 expensive, I didn't see any duct tape, and no one stared at me (maybe because I don't hoard food on my plate). Service was excellent (plates cleared quickly and soda was always replenished). The food was good and fresh (I came at 4pm). Crab was decent. Would definitely come back. For the folks complaining that the food was greasy - c'mon, it's Chinese food!

    I am SOOOO happy I disregarded these reviews and went inside to enjoy this place! If you are so used to poor quality, greasy, soggy, super salty, no good Chinese buffet food that will give you food poisoning for just $8-12 per person, then please don't come here. Yes, this place charges you about $20 per person. At first, I was super skeptical, but from the pictures it looked like they offered much more seafood than most Chinese buffets, so I wanted to try it out anyway. The staff were quiet and friendly. They cleaned and were attentive. There were tons of seafood options. To my surprise (and also my husband's), none of the dishes we ate were salty, greasy or too sweet. We were shocked!!!!!!! The dishes were very well prepared. Much higher quality. We had the steamed clams (nice and juicy but I did wish they didn't add butter to the water to steam it), crab legs (amazingly good and not salty at all), and the best tasting soft shell crabs (lightly battered and fried with the perfect amount of salt and pepper). The sauteed spinach were unique to the Chinese buffet, and it was perfectly made. Crawfish were okay (some pieces were salty but most of them were decent). The fried calamari was FAB!!!!!! Normally, I would stay away from these in any Chinese place because they are normally super small, too chewy, overfried and wayyyyyy too salty that it would give me an immediate headache! This place makes the best Chinese fried calamari! Holy cow! The pieces were massive so you can actually taste the meat. It's lightly battered and lightly salted. Amazingly good! My husband and I left extremely happy and couldn't believe the negatively people had of this place. We assume it's because most people walked in expecting to pay $10pp and were surprised it's $20pp so they got angry lol. Next time, call and ask for the price first, people!!!!!Relax. You get what you pay for! Oh, and neither one of us got food poisoning!!!!! Yayyyyy!!!!! My husband and I havent eaten at a Chinese buffet in years because of the food poisoning everywhere we go. Definitely will go back to this place again and again. Worth the $20 for sure.

    The food was really decent. I would come back and eat here again. I would rate it 3.5 but my mom loves this place so I'm giving it a 5

    For the price at an all you can eat this place is better than descent. Very polite people in this joint. Jalapeno poppers and icecream were my favorite. Beef and broc, chicken and broc was on point. Yes its greasy bits its suppose to be greasy. Fruits and salad were fresh. It's a bargain for the price. Payed $29 for two at lunch.

    Everything was fairly average l. But this Chinese buffet is the worst one I have been too, there always starring at you. The bathrooms were poor joy maintained and  when we called for Dinner prices they lied to us!!
