Stop. I'd you think this is the only place in Gainesville to get Chinese food, it isn't! Don't settle. Chopsticks is SO much better! (& Joaquim Phoenix's fave Chinese restaurant in Gville-for good reason!) I used to eat here often. But the last year one of the lady's that worked there would walk behind me while I was standing in line at the buffet & say rude stuff about me in Chinese (or Korean). & it's because I was getting the tofu. But I'm a vegetarian & I need protein. Then the next time I came in they stopped having tofu. You have to order it separately. I like the green beans & bok Choy. & the cheese wontons. But have not been back since the lady said the rude stuff every time I came. I have to order the tofu separately if I want it. & for $10-12 it's not worth it. I've been going to Chop Sticks instead & getting their tofu. Which is MUCH better for the same price, & they aren't rude. & they add vegetables along with the tofu. Plus, this place charged us a buffet for my 8-y-o a few years ago, even tho she literally only took 3-4 bites, if that! If these people want to have return customers, then they need to start treating people better & with more respect. & they need to quit over-charging for semi-palatable food that I'm sure is coated in MSG.

Buffet was good but looking around the air ducts needed cleaning

It is a nice little place conveniently situated on 13th Street with plenty of parking. The lunch buffet is very good with a good array of choices, the food is very good. The people are very friendly. I would recommend this restaurant

I have been here a couple times. The first the food was great everything was hot the Bars were full and there was several people there to enjoy. The next time I came you could tell it was a slow day only two other people in the restaurant the bar was half and half some stuff was old and cold and some stuff was hot and fresh and good. So what I guess I'm trying to say is it's hit or miss when busy the food is great.

I thought the place was closed when I pulled in it's quiet and dark inside it has a buffet not impressed with it but the sushi look good I'm just allergic so I can't tell you if it was good or not as for the rest of it it looks like it's been sitting there for a while and their dishes are definitely disposable the green beans were good and so was the mushrooms other than that it wasn't too appealing... I was there at lunch time and it wasn't very fresh so I probably won't be back

Really made an account just to leave a review. I'm new in town so I checked out this place on a whim when the mood struck for chinese. I picked up my delivery, which took no time at all, and the staff was very courteous. The food is to die for, the bourbon chicken is so good it has to be my favorite out of any other place I've been to. There's also a dine in option, buffet style, something I think is definitely worth checking out in the future. Highly recommend, absolutely worth it!

Food was old and tastes horrible! The tea is the only thing worth something.

David Sanders

Limited food and desert selection. Inside is clean but outside is terrible. Building needs attention. Everything is overgrown. Windows need to be washed. You almost would not know it is there.

We went and had an early dinner. Sushi bar was not cold. Only had 3 pieces of hot sushi. Almost all the food on buffet had been sitting there all day. Not worth the time.

Lorraine Pride

Visited this establishment for the lunch buffet. Only $10.00, food was delicious.

Dean Reed

Food was still excellent after not going in over a year

Michael Chan-Pong

Food is like a typically small-town Chinese restaurant. Not necessarily bad, but quite uninspired.

Grace Bartholomew

Older place but very good food. Buffet style, good price. I would go back there again!
