At least during the weekday. There is a reason that they only offer coupons on weeknights. If you do not go on a weekend night (Fri - Sun), you can almost be guaranteed a dismal dining experience. If you happen by on a Monday or Tuesday, be prepared to find barely refilled trays of entrees that are overheated, overcooked, and... More

This buffet has a lot of variety. Like all buffets, there's really only a set amount of things they can put on the table because they have to keep ALL of those dishes fresh, and there's only so many tray spaces. They made good choices in what they have though, I think. Service is fine. The waitresses are a bit... More

This buffet has it all and that includes taste. If you care to have fresh food cooked they do that as well. I have never seen any bad items in the buffet and you can count on all the trays being filled with hot and fresh food. The staff is great as well and take care of you as you... More

Stopped for lunch. They had crab legs, shrimp, pizza, all kinds of Chinese food. Sushi both cooked like Mali rolls as well as raw. Very worth it. Service was great too, dishes were gone as soon as you got up for something else. Great variety.

My review takes cost into consideration; I weigh a $60/person meal on a different set of expectations than a $15.00/person place. This place, at like $11.00/person for dinner is awesome to me. The outside looks about like every other Chinese restaurant, but this place is awesome and the waitresses are very respectful and nice. I don't come during lunch so... More

I love this place. The buffet is always plentiful, with many different options, including the very excellent crab rangoon (one of my faves) and the salt and pepper shrimp, as well as the crab stuffed shrimp and crab cakes. The sushi by far is the best I've had in Aiken, and is included in the price of the buffet, as... More

I had not been to this restaurant in over a year and the buffet items are still the same. The food is good, but would like a change some times. Love the spinach casserole!
