We went here on 420... and we are two healthy people who don't typically go out to eat, never mind dabbling in Chinese buffet. But we thought.. "screw it" let's give this place a try. It's been a long week. We saw the reviews so honestly weren't expecting much. We thought maybe there will be one hot bar and a dimly lit room. And I'm happy to say... we WERE WRONG! This place is indeed located in a sketchy strip mall but the interior is fresh, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. A few chandeliers, plenty of seating, and a HUGE buffet! There were dozens of healthy and delicious vegetarian dishes, as well as your nostalgic fried Chinese American choices (chicken on a stick, cheese wontons, chicken fingers). The service is fast, efficient and friendly! The food was so much more fresh than I was expecting. I mean it's a buffet people, you get what you get but as far as I'm concerned this place scores above most restaurants in this area. For the price point all you can eat you really can't go wrong. We will definitely be back.

We've been coming here for years. Before we lost our mom in 2019, this was one of her favorite places to eat out. It's nice to see that the full buffet is open again. They were closed for quite a while during and after the pandemic, only doing to go by weight. They are open for the full buffet again, and they still do to go meals by weight.. the place is very clean, and the people are friendly. They have a good selection. a salad bar, several soup, options, many different Chinese options, seafood, sushi, and a dessert bar with soft serve, pudding, tapioca, Jell-O, fruit, and other choices. You can eat as healthy or as fried as you want. They do have a good amount of vegetarian choices as well. I love the crispy peanut chicken. The sauce is delectable! the baked flounder was delicious, the eggplant and oyster sauce was a tiny bit spicy, but it was also delicious. They have more items on the dinner menu than they do the lunch menu. My favorite item by far, the coconut shrimp, is only served on the dinner menu. Dinner used to be all day on the weekends, but every day is now split up between lunch and dinner Prices are extremely reasonable. My dad said that he felt that his food was just warm. To me, I thought the temperature level of the food was just fine. I guess it's a personal choice. I'm glad they are back, and I will continue to come back. Thank you.

It sounds weird, but the best food I've tried yet in Humboldt. The veggies were fresh, the food tasted great and there was a wide selection of sushi, American/Chinese classics and even some dim sum options. I crushed six plates easy.

I absolutely love the Oriental Buffet. I have been coming here for many years and look forward to it. It is the perfect meal.

The people complaining on this place are crazy Im from socal and this is the second time I've eaten here to have this buffet spot with all the unique flavors and options in your small town lol be grateful and ice cream bar for dessert Clean bathroom / great service / and some tasty options

This wasn't bad at all. It's all hit and miss. But since i like oriental food, i enjoyed the dumplings, sweet and sour chicken and all the other things they offer. As soon as you get in, they let you take a seat and you can start with buffet. Drinks are also refilled by the waiters. Put your used plates at the edge so they can easily get them. Then you can start getting more food at the buffet table. When ready, ask for your bill and you can pay your bill through the waiters. Staff was friendly and overall it was a good experience!

Great place to eat! Perfect for large parties Service is attentive and polite The sushi and seafood is great! We will come back every week :)
