Customer reviews paint a concerning picture of China Buffet King. Multiple reviewers describe the food as subpar, bland, dry, and overcooked. Specific dishes like the General Tso's chicken, wonton soup, and egg rolls are mentioned as being flavorless or poorly prepared. Trays on the buffet are noted as being often bare. There are also significant concerns raised about the cleanliness of the establishment, with multiple reports of disgustingly sticky tables. One reviewer overheard a waiter attributing the stickiness to the tables being 25 years old.

Further negative feedback includes observations of a dirty-looking kitchen and a lack of adequate heating, with electric heaters reportedly used in the bathroom. One reviewer mentioned the absence of listed prices for the buffet and having to request basic items like straws and napkins. Service is also a point of criticism, with one customer describing the waitress as very rude and the service as poor. This reviewer recounted an unpleasant interaction regarding a tip and incorrect change. While one reviewer noted that the silverware and dishes were clean and that the pot stickers and dessert/fruit selection were good, the overwhelming sentiment from recent reviews suggests a significant decline in quality and a generally negative dining experience at China Buffet King.

I ate there yesterday, but held off making this review to see if I got sick last night. The food is subpar for a Chinese restaurant. The General Tso was not spicy and tasted like they added ketchup. Most entrees on the buffet were bland and lacked vegetables. There were two glaring issues from someone who eats Chinese at least once a week. The wonton soup and egg rolls were flavorless. Second, all the tables were disgustingly sticky. I overheard the waiter tell a husband and wife who came to eat, after they refused to sit at two dirty tables, the reason the tables are sticky is that they are 25 years old. Seriously!!! All that being said, the silverware and dishes were all clean. They had some amazing pot stickers, nice after eating ice cream selection, a large desert/fruit area, and my waiter was very nice. Haven't eaten here in over a year and I can tell you the place has gone downhill. Shame because it used to be good.

The food was terrible dry, over cooked, hard to bit into. Trays were pretty bare minimum. This place is gross and dirty. Kitchen looked dirty and place did not seem to have heat they had electric heaters in the bathroom.No prices listed for the buffet we never got straws or napkins I had to ask for them. The waitress was very rude acting the service sucked. We finished our food because we don't like wasting food. I found two good things to eat there out of 8 things I had. After we were done we decided not to go for seconds we went to checkout and pay and my friend paid for us. He asked for his change oh your not leaving a tip and he said no we are not she was very rude about everything and she did not even give him the right change back like she was gonna pocket it. Please what ever you do don't waste your time in this slum hole it's like walking into hell and wanting to leave as soon as possible.

Honestly exactly what I’d hope for with a Chinese buffet. New booths, floor and walls in the seating area. Definitely recently improvements. Fairly busy, vibrant space. Football game on small tv at the front of the restaurant. All food service area was full of food.

Food was great, service was slow (it was packed in there so I understand), and the people were “interesting” to say the least. The food was worth it though!
