China Village Restaurant — Restaurant in Greenwood

I recently fell in love with this restaurant. Started bringing my friends and family here. We Travel for over an hour just to come enjoy this restaurant. That changed today as I went in with my friend. I ordered off the menu for myself, and ordered a takeout order as well. My friend got buffet. As I’m eating, my friend is up at the buffet. One of the owners was standing by the cash, kept looking in my direction. I did not think anything of this. A few moments later, the waitress comes over to me and says the owner saw me eating a chicken ball off of my friends plate and that if I eat off her plate from the buffet, I’ll need to pay extra. I’m appalled as I don’t find it’s right to accuse me of eating off of my friends plate when I did not. I ordered my own plate, and I ordered a take out order . I did give MY egg roll to my friend. When I told the waitress I certainly did not eat off of my friends plate, she seemed to really not believe me. I didn’t appreciate this at all. Being watched like a criminal from across the room and then accused of something I didn’t do.

Exactly what I expect from China village. Enjoyed it as usual. The buffet was good. It is middle of the road canadianized chinese food. The price increase has made the buffet a little bit less worthwhile unless you really stuff yourself, versus getting a big plate or a combo with extra sides. Either way still enjoy it in spite of the increase.

Good staff. I enjoy the variety of the buffet. The previous time I got the Imperial Chicken and it was simply amazing and very filling. The buffet is really only worth it if you're going to eat two heaping playes or more.

Photos are of the buffet food i ate for 24+tax and a tip for the attentive server. Very pleasant staff.

My only criticism is the spring rolls are probably the worst I've tasted at any restaurant. I've given them a few shots and for some reason they always tastes bad but I don't recall them tasting bad a few years ago. I enjoy everything else there besides the spring rolls. Don't let this criticism dissuade you. It's...

Absolutely disappointed though not surprised. One meal in 5 years was remarkably fresh and tasty (buffet) but last visit was appalling. Chicken balls too hard to cut with a knife, s&s ribs dry and tough. Generally the opposite of fresh and tasty. Why I bother giving them "one more try" since they usually aren't better than mediocre at best. Edit- I didn't think it possible this place could offer worse food for more money...but they have surpassed my worst expectations. The chicken in sweet and sour balls and chow mein seem similar to poor quality, prepacked stuff. Same dry touch consistency. Mostly batter but for the tough hard bit in the middle. Would it kill them to use fresh sprouts Instead of what feel like soggy canned ones? It's purely because there's...
