Spring Buffet

Greeted at the door with a smile and a warm welcome. Then ..... tried the food. Then I tried other menu items. Sadly not good at all. Dumplings,dim sum, etc just tasted off. Really not good. Wouldn't recommend it at all.

No too much choices. It’s only 6 o’clock and they don’t refill the food

If I could give a zero star I would. Staff was quick to give us the bill before we even got our first plates to the table, after about 10 minutes the waitress was pushing to get us to pay the bill, at 445 when they close at 9 and there was maybe 2 other tables seated.

When we tried to tell the front counter about it they couldn’t be bothered, and instead of responding to us saying how rude and pushy our waitress was just told us the total.

And now that we are home myself, my daughter and my wife have all been sick.

Just avoid it, clearly they don’t care about their customers

Let’s talk about this restaurant ruining our daughters 9th birthday. When the waitress brings the check before we even receive drinks, let alone sit down with our first plates, then tries to usher us out before we’ve finished said first plate I’d say that’s incredibly disappointing. Especially considering they were hours away from closing and there were only three other families at tables so they weren’t busy. Disrespectful is when the waitress yelled at the toddle at the table for dropping one piece of sushi, was rude through the entire meal, and then screams at our family while leaving about her tip when she was tipped well above 20% value for the entire table. We tried to give the benefit of the doubt when paying because we don’t know the waitresses circumstances but at this point we’d had enough. She effectively ruined our daughters birthday, and then staff refused to contact a manager. We were treated poorly from the get go, and our daughter did not deserve this. It would be understandable if we had been difficult customers but as fellow service workers we will always go above and beyond to be kind to service workers. Try one of the other local buffets or number of other businesses in ithaca if you have a hankering for Chinese food. Not worth the verbal abuse we suffered for below sub par food, and atrocious treatment.

Totally unbiased opinion, most of the food was burnt or sat out so long it was crusty. The dumplings were burnt black and the soup dumplings were so hard from sitting so long. The seafood mixture in the clam shells were also so burnt they were inedible. There was no butter for the Seafood. The hostess literally gave us a dirty look and a hmmph when she asked the kids ages one was still 10 for two more days and she's super tall but jeez why would I lie to save .50. then our waitress told the table next to us, loud enough for us to hear, you gave me better tip than other families here. It was not the cleanest place the salad bar was loaded down with boxes and different things. I would say save your money and eat somewhere else

Absolutely disgusting. All the people who are giving good ratings on THIS food are either weirdos who feel important filling out surveys/reviews or someone who is just plain lying!! This food is ALWAYS old, dried out and it looks it as well. The fact they haven’t been shut down or lost all its business or at least changed what they’re doing is all because of YOU. It’s the only buffet in town and it’s repulsive. I’m gonna let you in on a secret. On Monday they’re closed, but yet when you wait at the door for them to open on Tuesday. the honey chicken from Monday is put out. THINK IM LYING TEST MY STORY. The first batches of food should always be fresh they’re not.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dining at a buffet restaurant that left me utterly disgusted. The low price initially seemed like a steal, but little did I know that it would come at the cost of my taste buds and overall well-being.

As soon as I entered the restaurant, a strong stench of fish hit my nostrils. It was an immediate turn-off, but I decided to give it a chance, hoping that the other dishes would be better. Unfortunately, that was not the case.

The food quality at this buffet was shockingly low. The dishes looked unappetizing, and upon tasting them, I was overwhelmed with a nauseating sensation. The flavors were off, and it felt like the food had been sitting out for far too long. I genuinely feared that I might vomit if I forced myself to eat any more.

To add insult to injury, the overall condition of the restaurant was appalling. The torn chairs did not provide a comfortable seating experience, and it made me question the cleanliness and maintenance of the establishment. It was clear that the management had neglected the basic upkeep of the place.

Given the awful smell, terrible food quality, and the uninviting ambiance, I could not bear to stay in the restaurant any longer. After enduring the unpleasant experience for a mere six minutes, I made a hasty exit, vowing never to return.

I love the food here. You find many options on. I usually go on weekends. My favorites are sushis , chicken wings and fried shrimp
