Customer Reviews
Came here after church today and was treated very disrespectful. The lady was Very rude taking our drink order from the beginning. I tried to tell her how many of us there were and the drinks and she rudely off. She doesn’t get half the drink order and what she did make were wrong. Service was terrible we had no refills or offered any. No clean as you go after you finish with a plate and it doesn’t take long when 11 people are eating. The food was cold and I am currently having stomach issues from this place. After all that we go to pay and it is a scene in front of this restaurant full of people. She is arguing saying we had two more adults with us and trying to over charge us. We had to argue with this lady for 10 min. She literally could have just counted heads there. After the said fact when we split our bill up like we told her to begin with they tried to charge over $30 for a tip. We didn’t get service! No drinks or table cleaned nothing and they want $30. I said absolutely not I will tip accordingly and told her I will never be back to her unprofessional business again. My advice eat else where. I’m really regretting it right now.
You know it's not a good thing when you walk in and the lady who seats you is wearing a thick, warm coat. The food was ok but it was not hot and it was barely warm. It was so cold in there they probably couldn't keep the food hot. I had on my warmest, thickest coat, and I was still uncomfortably cold, so was the person with me. No one ever came to the table to offer more drink or take used plates. The person who took the money was not friendly. Disappointing. $29.08 for 2 buffets, a water and a sprite. Totally not worth it. It might have been if the food was hot and it was warm enough in the building.
This was my first time trying this restaurant. I was a little disappointed. This buffet was small. More less for a quick bite. Not really for a sit down meal. They gave my daughter an adult drink and she's only 4, when we asked for a cup to take it with us, the lady there said they charge for taking out. I paid for it once I'm not paying for it again. Charged twice? That's ridiculous. We had to ask for refills on our drinks. Nobody came to check on us. Had to slide used plates to the corner of the table till they came to pick them up. Not crazy about this one. There used to be a bigger Chinese restaurant in Elijah we always went to. It was much better. Sad they changed it to a Mexican restaurant.
Decent asian inspired food. Did not expect 5 star food or service, and was not disappointed. The food was decent for a buffet. The trixk is to get it fresh, right after they refill items.
Food was great as usual. I added a few dollars at checkout for tip. Tip wasn't automatically put into total or a percentage option like with some. Always very satisfied and full by the time I leave.
