  • As other Yelpers have mentioned, the best deal for this place is on Tuesday nights where it's BOGO with the purchase of a drink. I don't think there's a ton of other Chinese buffets left in the Toronto area with the exception of Mandarin which is completely overpriced in my opinion. The restaurant doesn't look like it's been renovated since the 90s but aside from the outdated decor, the restaurant, buffet area and washrooms were clean which is what really matters. You don't expect much service at a buffet but my waiter was great. I was pretty impressed with the food. This buffet doesn't feature the large hotel pans of food. Instead the trays are large plates which is reminiscent of what you'd see at a more upscale buffet honestly. The smaller "tray" size was a lot better because they were making and refilling plates as they were emptied, rather than keeping old food warm under heat lamps. We were eating towards the end of the dinner service (we left at about 9:30pm) and I was surprised the were still bringing out new food. Some of the more impressive hot food dishes included sauteed king oyster mushrooms and salmon rice. They have a few different stations including a sushi bar, grill, and dessert bar plus ice cream area. The sushi bar had real fish offerings (very unlike other buffets that only stick to vegetable or cooked rolls) and sashimi! The fish I had was cold and tasted fresh. The grill area had roast beef, whole grilled fish and accompanying sides like corn and mashed potatoes to name a few items. The dessert bar had whole cakes on display and fresh waffle cones being prepared for ice cream. One thing that I really enjoyed was the chicken ginseng soup. Not really what you go for at a buffet but was kind of nice to clear my palette after throwing everything and the kitchen sink into my stomach.
