When I visited this buffet, I figured that it would be as good as any Chinese buffet. However, this chinese buffet, you get what you pay for. It was probably the worst Chinese buffet I've been too. I realized that it wasn't going to be good when I visited this place, but I didn't realize how bad it could get.
Very unclean!
I would rather save my money and buy food that will be enjoyable. I've been to China and I was more worried about the meat at this restaurant than the mystery meat in China! Many of the dishes were not labeled and so you really didn't know what you were eating.
It's not gourmet. Â It's not outstanding. Â But it's good. And, IMHO, it's the best $5.69 deal in town.
Upside...if you dine during the main lunch and dinner hours, the food is always fresh and changed often.
Upside...for 5.69, you get a pretty incredible variety of food.
Downside...if you eat during the main lunch and dinner hours, it can be VERY crowded.
Downside...if you happen to eat at an "off" time, the food can set for quite a while in the warming trays.
That said, for me, the ups outweigh the downs. Â I wouldn't want to eat here every day...or even every week, for that matter, but when I'm craving Chinese, and don't have a lot of time or money, this is my go to place.
This is a highly qualified review, because there's a mixture of goodness and strangeness. You can get food here that when compared to $5.69 at McDonalds, is a lightyear away in variety and taste and nourishment. There are some items that are good and the not-so-good. Let me explain:
The Good
Reasonable salad bar, always fresh, lots of fruit. It's usually very clean. There are the usual mix of Chinese American dishes, often very fresh and 22 dishes that I counted; about half will work for vegetarians depending on their orthodoxy. There is sushi, but it's not the kind that sushi lovers will crave-- and they're insane to think you can get good sushi at a buffet for $5.69. There is ice cream, and a few desserts.
The Bad
Some items can stay in the pan for a long time before they're changed. Sauces like even soy sauce, must go to your table with you after you mixed them. The seats in the booth area were once plush, but they're now about half with holes in them. Not very enticing. The beverage selection is optional, and there is only one non-high fructose selection beyond water, and that's unsweetened ice tea, which is reasonably good.
I've been going here for a decade, and the family/crew that runs the place hasn't changed in a long time. They're a bit shy, but very nice people and they strive to keep things moving along. It can get very crowded here. The food, however, is reasonable, but if you have more $$, better can be found elsewhere.
$5.69 ($6.20 with tax). Â Same price all day for Chinese buffet. Â Cheapest price for a dinner buffet. Â
Food was delicious. Â Salmon, chicken & mushroom, chicken & broccoli, egg drop soup, rice noodle, orange, ice cream, fried chicken, fortune cookie, etc. Â I will have to go again while around Norgate shopping center.
I am not a big fan of Chinese buffets, and this is the perfect example of why. Â First, the one good thing is the price: Â it's cheap. Â That has to be the only reason for its popularity, because the food is really atrocious. Â Overcooked, underseasoned, sitting in warming trays. Along with the Asian dishes, they offer a random helping of mashed potatoes, some really tired looking pizze . . . Â I think not.
Review Source:My thought process here: I want Chinese food, (seconds later) hey there is the "Super China Buffet". Â I'm rating on a scale of Chinese Buffets and for me I've had better, every other time. Â This was hands down the worst place I've been. Â The food is most definitely not great. Â I'm not sure what I was expecting but average food would probably be ideal. Â This place disappoints.
Review Source:This place is honestly awful, like spend the rest of the night with indigestion and your head in the toilet awful. Â I am a fan of greasy run of the mill chinese buffet food from time to time but this place is just not worth it in my opinion. Â The food here used to be decent a few years ago, but I went recently and it was bland, flavorless, extra greasy, and very fatty. Â Overall a very bad experience and I wont be back anytime soon. Â
Oh, and my favorite part of the place - the soft serve ice cream machine - Â was broken when I went. Â Two thumbs down
OK this place is a typical Chinese buffet, but it does have the best Chicken and Broccoli of all the other buffets I have tried in town. Â And I think that says a lot. Â This place seems very popular so a lot of people seem to have a good opinion of it. Â I have notice that there are many quality items: Â the white rice here is very good--soft and moist, it has excellent steamed dumplings, and the obligatory sushi is assembled with some care. Â A nice atmosphere as well. Â I would rate as above average and worth a visit if you are in the neighborhood. Â PS: The price is very reasonable compared to other places.
Review Source:I've been to a lot of Chinese buffets in town, and in a nutshell, this is  below average.  Almost all other locations of this chain/franchise are noticeably better.  So please don't judge other "Super China Buffets" on the merits of this one.
I think they have new owners since last I was there about two years ago. The quality of the food has gone down. Today, we went during the height of the lunch hour, and there was plenty of just-came-out-of-the-kitchen food on the steam tables. But... I just didn't like the food. (And I tend to be easy to please.)
I treated some guests to lunch, and I chose this place since we were shopping at Wal-mart, and they've never been to a Chinese restaurant before. It wasn't that bad two years ago. But now I'm ashamed to have taken them there.
The chicken in all the chicken dishes was rubbery. The sauces tasted almost all the same. The only green vegetable to be seen in the steam tables was the broccoli. The only other hot vegetables were the starches: rice, noodles, potatoes. Well, the mushrooms in a couple dishes were good. But it was almost all basically meat and starch.
The salad portion was notably "good" compared to the rest. There was iceberg lettuce, Ceasar salad, Kim Chee (maybe the owners are Korean?), and cucumbers and onions in a vinegary sauce.
Plenty of California roll type of sushi (a piece of fake crab, cucumber, maybe an avocado sliver, seaweed wrapper, rolled in rice. But the rice was dried out. No bowl/cup for your soy sauce, but they did at least have some along with Wasabi paste, and old ginger slices. I think it's just there so you can say you had sushi.
Dessert was lacking, though they had a frozen custard type machine that I didn't try. A couple colors of jello and pudding, pineapple chunks from a can, dried out orange sections, one type of cookie, one type of small cake roll. But at least they did have one of my favorites: bananas in red sauce, which were good.
Cleanliness was acceptable.
The air in the restaurant was too hot and too humid. It was stultifying.
Service, as far as clearing away used plates was good.
Price is $5.39 (all day, I think), plus $.99 for a soft-drink (or free water), plus tax, $6.95 total So if you find something there that you like, and fill up on it, it could still be a good deal.
There were a couple of acceptable dishes. Â I could have filled up on the salad bar and the one or two things I liked. Â So it would serve in a pinch as a "fill up cheap" place, if you're in the neighborhood, and have to have an all-you-can-eat place, and don't have time to go anywhere else.
If you appreciate good Chinese (or even Americanized Chinese) food, you'll probably think I'm being overly generous with giving this place 2 stars.
This is your typical buffet. Â You stand in line, pay $5.39 and they ask if you want a drink, give you a cup and send you on your way. Â The clientele are older people and the stereotypical obese crowd.
The food is not real chinese (of course) but the typical buffet fair. Â Most of the dishes looked like they had been sitting out for hours. Â Only the few popular items seemed fresh. Â The two standouts were the General Tso's Chicken and the Hot & Sour Soup. Â While neither were original, both had strong bold flavor. Â While the H&S soup tasted good, they used cheap substitute ingredients like button mushrooms instead of tree-ear and straw mushrooms. Â But it is a buffet, not fine dining.
The scariest item was the "california roll." Â Like everything imported from california, it was all flash and no bang. Â They made them look really pretty but there was no substance. Â The avocado was old and pasty, the imitation crab (another california invention?) was miniscule and flavorless, and the wasabi (on the side) was old and drying out.
I say blech and avoid this place unless you're broke. Â How typical that it's in a strip mall with wal-mart.
