Was Tara D at J. A. Buffet a mag?
I always get the steamed dumplings a wonton soup and a pork Lo mein combo. JA Buffet has never disappointed me yet with these dishes. However whatever change they made to their fried rice and Lo mein is disappointing there is nearly no flavor to them you end up dumping in multiple soy sauce packets in just to get some flavor. Because they hold my heart with the dumplings I dont want to be too harsh a critic View all feedback.

What Kenzie S dislikes about J. A. Buffet:
The chicken was tough and dry, so we didn’t eat it at all. The rice was fine, and the egg rolls were fantastic. The Lo 41 Beef Lo Mein was great, as always! We ordered three No. 23 meals, which included Sesame or Orange Chicken, but the chicken was the only disappointing part. View all feedback.

This is a delicious family-owned buffet in the area! I try to stop whenever I am nearby. The family and staff are amazing and the buffet is always stocked. Will continue to return!

My friends and I were craving Asian food when we visited PA. We were all pleasantly surprised when we ate at this Chinese restaurant! Upon arrival we were welcomed and seated immediately. The buffet had top notch quality seafood, meat, and combination plates to choose from. Overall this is hands down one of the best buffets I’ve ever eaten at. You can tell the owners and staff of this restaurant spent a lot of time crafting an eclectically delicious menu!

I usually avoid writing negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience. We occasionally stop by this restaurant, and our last visit was quite disappointing. The bill came to over $90 for two adults and three kids. While the staff was very friendly, we encountered a huge issue: there was a cockroach in the sushi! I informed a staff member and showed her the problem, but they just killed the roach and left the sushi there. I understand that food can attract pests, but this was very unsettling and off-putting. Sadly, I don’t think we’ll be returning. The food quality has also declined since our last visit. I'm truly disappointed.

This was a pretty rough place. Multiple dishes tasted like they had been sitting out a long while (it's a weekend so that shouldn't be). There was a lack of variety, and of the 20-30 things we did try all but maybe 5 of them were unpleasant in oneway or another. Finished out the meal with some regular chocolate ice cream, which at the end had something pretty crunchy init. I was eating out of a BOWL. I put the thing on a napkin and it was clearly not ice cream, but something else, maybe fried?Either way, don't plan to go back again.
