An old school Chinese buffet, family run, retains the vibe of before the mega chains took over in the 1990s. Him's is pretty average quality. David Kwan's on 43rd and Dunlap was the best old school Chinese buffet. But they have been out of business since about 2006.
Him's orange chicken and sweet and sour pork are good when fresh, otherwise they get dried out. The hunan chicken is good. The fried rice is not bad. The lo mein lacks flavor. The ribs are very good but they only have them for dinner. It's a limited selection on the salad bar. Despite being a buffet, this is not a place to go for variety. It's very small. When I do eat here, I usually get the same 4-5 things over and over again. Basically a local hole in the wall.
The old woman owner is a bit daft. I've been coming here for years and she will still insist on asking for my ID when paying with a VISA. That's annoying. Overall the food is not "good" but it's usually "ok", and it's cheap and I'll eat here when I'm in the mood.
If you want a better menu based but still inexpensive Chinese restaurant, I recommend Ming and Gee on the south side of Glendale one block west of 43rd Ave.
