FAMILY BUFFET — Restaurant in Burlington

My husband and I spent a weekend in Burlington and this is where we decided to eat. We were so satisfied we ate here both Saturday and Sunday. I know people like to pooh-pooh buffets, but.. This place rivals any Chinese buffet we have ever been to in Iowa. I’m aware that there is better Chinese food out there, and usually order-in, but we are big protein and veggie eaters so aren’t super picky anyway as long as there’s plenty of variety of meat. I would say we are not alone because the place was fairly busy both days around 5-7pm. Their sweet shrimp tastes similar to Panda E’s honey shrimp but 100x better. Good lo mein, chicken and broc, a few American options, and there was pork and beef as well. Servers were friendly and polite. Food tasted fresh. The price was reasonable.

After coming to so many Chinese buffets, you just kinda know what to expect. I can tell you that the food was excellent based on my experience.

Trust me, that's a great thing considering I've been to some buffets where you'd lose the lunch you just ate by going to the bathroom. Well, that's not here! The stall doors are even lower to the ground for...

Food wasn't the best Chinese I've ever had, but there were plenty of options. Service was just OK. Little disappointed that there weren't napkin dispensers on the table as most Chinese buffets I've been to. The floors are dangerous in spots and can use some work. And the ice cream dispenser is within the service station which is confusing if you're suppose to be back there using it. The only choice is vanilla and the only topping is chocolate syrup. Again, unlike most other Chinese buffets I've been to. Prices in my opinion were expensive. I'm use to paying around 6 bucks for a lunch buffet and maybe 9 for dinner at any other Chinese restaurants. 12 seemed a bit steep. To pay 60 bucks for a family of four at a Chinese buffet is kind...
