The food is consistently fresh, hot, and flavorful, with an extensive variety that satisfies every craving, especially when arriving early. The service is attentive and friendly, making each visit enjoyable despite busy times. After multiple visits, I can confidently say this is the best Chinese buffet experience in Lenoir, and I will definitely be returning.

Food is great. I want to order takeout from the buffet. If I went in to eat, the price is $8.99 plus beverage. Take out price is $5.25/pound. Why can I eat as many plates as I want for $8.99 but get one plate for the by the pound price?

This take-out meal was the absolute worst Chinese food I have ever had. The chicken was so tough I could barely cut it with a knife. Broccoli and carrots were raw, the rice was gummy. Will never return.
