Oriental Kitchen

As a truck driver I sample quite a few different places. This was definitely one of the best Chinese buffets I've been to in the northern Midwest. The kitchen seems to be very experienced as buffet items didn't run out for more than a few minutes yet were never overfilled with food that wasn't going anywhere. It was pretty much the standard Chinese buffet items; sweet and sour chicken, egg rolls, fried rice, pot stickers, chicken on a stick among other items. However, the Chinese mustard is the travel style packets of what must be the weakest strength/flavor. The beverage service seemed a bit lax also. Overall I'd recommend this location. The few negatives are far outdone by the positives.

Oriental Kitchen sign by the road says : "Open Seven Days A Week." So we turned around and lettering on the door says: Closed Mondays. Thanks for nothing. After purchasing fuel at the neighboring Truck Stop, I asked about the Oriental Kitchen and the cashier said not to bother eating there. She told me the Friday & Saturday evening buffet at the nearby Ho-Chunk Casino is to die for. On my return trip at the end of the week I will go to Ho-Chunk Casino for their Friday buffet. Hey Oriental Kitchen Owner.......CHANGE YOUR SIGN by the road saying it's closed on Mondays ! Duh.

Just love the authenticity of some of the dishes. Their lomein is off the charts!! And absolutely one of the dishes I always get. Their jalapeño chicken is my main entrée that makes me love this place and reminds me to come back everytime. Typical Chinese atmosphere but with the taste you're craving.

Yum! The outside of this restaurant is deceiving, it might not look great on the outside but inside it is much better. The food was hot and fresh, they kept everything well stocked, the service was prompt, and the restaurant itself was very clean. A couple dishes I didn’t care for but that is just personal taste. And I have a kid who is a picky eater and there wasn’t a lot that she was willing to eat there. Overall it was a good experience.

So, if you never had Chinese food from California, then you probably wouldn't notice the difference. For me, it is not what I prefer. Yellow fried rice is used in Hispanic dishes, in my opinion. Usually, pork fried rice is white rice fried. So I wouldn't eat here again. Other than that, it was hot, and portions were good. The dish pictured is the lunch special General Tso chicken and pork fried rice.
