We have been there many times - female host is rude !! So is the hibachi cook ! Food is decent - much of buffet is lukewarm warm! Servers are wonderful but the hostess is not friendly - she should be in the back of the house!

Not the best Buffet Chinese Place. They have your typical food choices from Crab ragoons to teriyaki chicken. They do a few sushi rolls but nothing elaborate. This is a place that is about quantity not quality. I was not impressed with any of the entrees. There has to be better Chinese food than this place.
Think twice before eating here.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Gregory E.Cave Creek, AZ01210Mar 5, 2023
Here we go again. Location shows a picture of shrimp toast as their specialty on their website. I couldn't find it on their menus so stopped by and asked about it. They had no idea what shrimp toast was until I showed them their website. Oops, I
Guess we'll have to remove the picture.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Bill Y.Independence, MO821Jul 15, 2023
Very nice staff and great food. Very clean for a buffet. I can't recommend this place enough if you're wanting good Asin food in Lenoir City.

Never quite feel comfortable eating there. Food is tasty, not real friendly service. They need to close for a few days and do a thorough cleaning. From ceiling fans, air units, windows, floors tables and chairs. They get alot of construction workers and their usually dirty ( just nature of the job)! Thats why restaurant needs to be vigilant about cleanliness. A little friendly smile from staff would help too.

We got there thinking they were going to close soon, but the hours on the door said 9:30 so we went it. The buffet was filled with so many yummy dishes from traditional Chinese stir fry and fried items to really delicious sushi and lots in between, including some very tasty desserts. We will definitely be back and bring family with us as well!

If you like Chinese fast food from steam tables, this is your kind of place! Six large steam tables full of just about everything you can bulk cook. If you are looking for sushi, you gotta look hard, and don't get your expectations up. Very limited selection of sushi (four types of fish), and half-a-dozen kinds of assorted rolls (mostly variations on California rolls). I've had better buffet just down the street.

I feel this place is underrated for what it is. I've never had a bad experience here whether I order to go or sat down and had the buffet. I feel like Chinese can be particular sometimes, so find the things you like and stick with them. Also, the fact that there's a sushi option as well as ready-made hibachi all as part of the buffet really sets this place apart from just you standard buffet.

Came in for the buffet. They had a lot to choose from. The egg drop soup is very good. Had the crab Rangoons, egg roll and the chicken broccoli. The staff here is really good at keeping the dirty dishes off the table- very busy establishment. Would highly recommend.
