Customer reviews regarding China Buffet present mixed opinions. A significant positive aspect mentioned is the quick seating upon arrival. The staff is also consistently praised for being extremely kind and helpful throughout the dining experience.

However, feedback on the buffet itself is less enthusiastic. While the food is noted to be hot and thoroughly cooked, some reviewers found it to lack flavor. One customer expressed an understanding of the need for caution regarding allergies and restrictions but felt the dishes lacked distinctiveness. Another reviewer, while stating the food was good enough for a 4-star rating and enjoying the noodles and chicken dishes, noted the absence of fish, which they considered a standard expectation for a buffet.

One reviewer indicated they would not drive from a neighboring area (Bolingbrook) specifically to eat at China Buffet but would consider it if already in the Carol Stream area. They also mentioned that the soda machine was not working correctly at the time of their visit. The price point relative to the options available was also a consideration for this reviewer.

The provided information does not offer specific details about the restaurant's ambiance or any current promotional offers. The focus of the reviews is primarily on the food quality (flavor and variety) and the service. Potential customers can expect quick seating and kind service but should be aware of the reported lack of strong flavor in some dishes and the potential absence of certain items like fish on the buffet. The functionality of amenities like the soda machine may also vary.

I have mixed feelings about China Buffet. We were able to be seated very quickly which is a big plus for me. The Buffet... I was less than underwhelmed, the food was hot and throughly cooked however it lacked any flavor whatsoever. I understand being careful because of customers allergies or restrictions, but there has to be something distinctive about the dish. Another plus was the staff was extremely kind and helpful during our entire stay.

Would I drive from home (boolingbrook) to come eat here? Honestly nope. Would I come here if I'm in the area? Yes. Not a lot of option for the price soda machine wasn't working correctly. Now the good... food was enough for a 4 Star review id enjoyed the food only down side was there was no fish I thought at a buffet that was a must... Both Noodles and all chickens were good overall nice place

Unfortunately the last time we ate there we saw a small cockroach crawling around on the floor near the seating. Then I looked at reviews and saw other reviews noting cockroaches or bugs. We won’t come back again. We enjoyed coming here. Staff is nice and attentive, food is hot, sometimes the food looks more fresh, sometimes less. Unless they completely overhaul the place for cleanliness, we can’t come back. 😕

Definitely not a fan. Not much of a variety. Hardly any beef . Barely okay. Not saying it's not edible... But I definitely would never go back

The food options are limited, may be cold, and the space makes you wonder what it was like the first day it opened. Despite this, the food options were delicious, soft drinks not watered down, and the cashier/ server/ attendant (multiple hats) made it feel welcoming. It’s also the first buffet I’ve ever been to that feature egg foo young too! If you’re looking to satisfy your Chinese buffet hankering or go to a low-profile buffet, it’s worth the visit.
