The first moment you walk in the smell of the food is amazing. The atmosphere here feels old, small, and family like. It might not look high in but it's definitely cozy. The staff is extremely nice and were super nice to my baby. I think my favorite dish was their pork on a stick which was tastier than most places I've been to and just melts in the mouth.

Hidden Gem! Great food with exceptional service. This place is tucked into a small strip mall off the main road. I've passed by it many times, finally stopped in today. IT WAS DELICIOUS!! The lunch buffet had a wide selection of dishes, something for everyone. A couple of soups, large selection of appetizers and main dishes that varied from traditional Chinese to chicken legs. I tasted a lot of the dishes, everything was excellent. Especially the black pepper chicken. It was superb, I'll definitely be going back for more of that one. The staff were very friendly. While trying to decide what I wanted to eat, one waiter asked if there was something I needed, he told me he could have the chef make me something, if needed. 10/10 would recommend.

Today's (7/12/22) was so different from the last time. Today it was 1 pm when we arrived. Isn't that lunch time? Several of the trays were empty. The cashier brought our drinks right away and then disappeared into the kitchen. They began filling the hot bar with food. The rice they brought it was not even warm. The crab Rangoons were hot and amazing.

About the time we were done eating, the cashier came out of the kitchen and began collecting soiled plates from all of the tables. She had to take them to the back because all bus tubs were overflowing.
So as far as drink refills, it was fend for yourself.
We still left a gratuity because that's what you are supposed to do, besides, it looked like they were short staffed.

Update: August 10, 2023...thought we would try again. That was the BEST Chinese food I have in quite a while. It's not even like the same place. It was VERY CLEAN, HOT DELICIOUS FOOD,
It totally made a 100% turn around. I tried a little of just about everything and was stuffed. Changing my rating back to 5 stars. The one person cleaning tables and taking orders at the door never slowed down. She was very polite and keep her eyes on the drinks. The room was about 75% full of people enjoying their food.
I was amazed at the difference!!!

Update: March 29, 2024
Amazing again. This place is now somewhere I like going monthly. We both really like it. I don't know what happened from the first time but I give it a 10+!!!

It's always great! Good food, service, and atmosphere. I tease my bf with the teriyaki chicken on a stick and a quote from O Brother, Where Art Thou?

"Gopher, Everett?" 😆

Good food. They got busy after I arrived, but they were quick at replenishing the food on the buffet.

My family usually visits this restaurant every few Sundays and it's always been good. The owners are friendly and the food is tasty it's a buffet. They are typically good about making sure nothing sits out too long. For the price it's a good place to visit. The rumors about the cat traps and animal abuse are false. The fact that the place is owned and operated by Asians played into the rumors.

Best Spring Rolls in Bloomington!
EDIT:
Had dinner there last week and it was still good! Carryout is awesome at this place as compared to Mr. Hibachi - which I found to be a nightmare for sure. You have all of my business, Great Taste! Thanks for great food!

Still the best tasting Chinese buffet in town. They don't have a huge selection, but what they make is always the best. Drink is included, and even weekend dinner is less than $10 a person.

My husband and I have been going here for several years.We know what the best time of day is to go.
Sundays between 11 & 1 are very good.
Being disabled,both of us,we always are treated with great hospitality,and courteous respect.The lady always makes sure we have our drinks by the time we get to our special table, if available.We know her and have become friends,as much as one can, in such an establishment.
Service means a lot to me,and when one lady is working the whole room,and can remember what her regulars drink,is a plus to me.
If something isn't available at a busy time I always face to steam table so I can see when they bring it out.
Having worked I the trade many years ago,I've learned a few things.
I'd rather have my food warm than burn my mouth because the steam table is turned up too high.

I honestly love this place!! When they were filling the to go containers for you they definitely made it worth your while! It's always great food and nice people. They found my son's jacket and returned it to me when most restaurants wouldn't if bothered!

Excellent buffet for the price. Fabulous staff, super friendly. A little smaller than other buffets but high quality and plenty of tasty choices. Lots of fruit and desserts, but the deep fried pork chops are AMAZING and worth the drive all by themselves. For the record, the horrible slander and abuse they are receiving is completely unwarranted. These are good people and a lovely restaurant.

This is my favorite Chinese place. The egg drop soup is awesome, and you can't beat their sauteed green beans and honey chicken. They have the best crab Rangoon of any other place I've tried. They are cheap and tasty which is a huge plus for me. My daughter loves the Mei fun so give it a try!

My family loves great taste! Great prices and great food! What more can you ask for? Also the staff are very kind and they even talk to you. It's a very clean and peaceful place to eat. Great for kids of all ages as well.

The food is great and always cooked right. The fried stuff is crispy, and is nice and dry. The rice Krispies were a little *moist*, but that was not the main part of the meal. The waiter for our table refilled drinks quickly and kindly. I also seem to hear people complain about animal abuse, which is not true. The cat was in a harness, and it had just bitten the owner. Animal Control took it to test if it was positive for rabies, and fortunately, it was not. I walk behind here all the time, and what people say are "cat traps" are actually wooden cartons that the green beans come in. The restaurant is great, and so are the people there.

You shouldn't spread rumors about stuff you don't know about.
