For a Chinese buffet it was ok. Its not authentic, so it's like the Mandarin. I miss my authentic Chinese food. Mashed potatoes and pizza at a Chinese restaurant...c'mon, really?! I guess it's to please the kiddies. When you walk in its very welcoming. You walk over a bridge with a pond underneath with koi fish and turtles. Chinese decorations throughout, which is a nice touch. Place is huge because it used to be a home outfitters etc. Lots of seating so it's good for big groups. There are different stations set up, one of which is the drink station. Yes that's right, you have to get your own drink. Nobody at my table liked this. It would be a pain if your sitting in the back of restaurant and if you have children with you, you have to balance drinks and full plates or make a trip up another time just for drinks. So much easier if they just brought it to your table. We had arrived at 230pm on a sat not knowing they close at 3 to get ready to reopen at 5. So we had to stock up our plates with whatever was left. What we were unhappy with was that a whole complete station was already cleared away when we went up to buffet well before 3pm and they were starting to clear some more of the trays before they were even empty! At least wait til 3, the time that you tell people! The waitresses were friendly though and always smiling.
