Variety Buffet
3.5 / 5 (2164 reviews)

Description

The local buffet offers a mixed experience, reflecting both highs and lows in its offerings. While it boasts a variety of Chinese-American dishes and is one of the few buffets in the area, many patrons note a decline in food quality coupled with rising prices, making the experience feel overpriced. Some dishes, like peanut chicken and honey chicken, garner praise, yet others, such as sushi and pizza, face criticism for poor execution. The service is generally positive, and a decent atmosphere accompanies the dining experience. However, consistency in food freshness and flavor remains a concern among customers.

The best time to visit is when the restaurant first opens, as that is when the food is the freshest and most delicious.

Too expensive

The restaurant has a stunning interior that clearly shows a lot of effort was put into its design. While the food was good, nothing particularly stood out as exceptional. However, overall it was a pleasant dining experience.

The food was terrible, but the customer service was decent. However, I will never go back again. It cost $18 per person, so around $40 for two people, which is ridiculous. I would have been better off going to McDonald's and getting 20 Double Cheeseburgers for the same price.

So We always stop here for lunch at least once when we are in the area. I've only ever been there around lunch time so I can't speak for any other time of day but everything is always great. The seating areas are always very clean and maintained, the buffet area is always spotless. The food is always HOT. Employees are always bringing out more food, so your always getting it fresh, not like it's been sitting under a heat lamp all day. Everyone loves it and even the little ones enjoyed the all they could eat chicken nuggets and fries while the adults in the party love the more traditional Chinese food options. This place has my favorite honey chicken out of any food place or buffet anywhere! It's soo good and not overly battered like it normally is a lot of places! (You always get a giant ball of batter with barely any chicken in it- not here!!! The kids also loved the little Hershey's ice cream cups! They had chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry so everyone got their flavor! Place is definitely the best buffet in the area! So if you enjoy Chinese food definitely stop by at least once. I've been traveling up to the Lock Haven area all my life, and we've stopped here for lunch at least once a trip for the past few years and it's been great everytime we've ate here. Like I said- we always go for lunch so I don't know how the food differs at dinner time. I've seen a lot of reviews of people complaining about the food served at dinner time not being hot. At lunchtime everytime I've been there it's all been steaming hot, Kid-friendliness: Chicken nuggets- french fries- and ICE CREAM! pretty much the under 8 staples lol Wheelchair accessibility: Big doors with a clear way in. Had no issues finding handicapped parking either!
