Panda Buffet

Older building and wasn't sure they were open but they were. Fairly nice inside. You can tell it is a family owned restaurant. Small buffet but the food was excellent. Service was excellent and staff was very friendly. And where can you go get an all you can eat buffet for $15.58 with a pop and tax? So if you are driving through Chariton Iowa on Highway 34 it's right next to the BP gas station. Definitely stop if you are hungry.

The food at Pand Buffet is absolutely amazing — everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The prices are even better! You truly get fantastic value for the quality and variety they offer. What impressed me most, though, was the phenomenal customer service. I made the mistake of thinking they closed at 9 PM, but their actual closing time is 8 PM. I arrived just five minutes before closing, yet not a single employee complained or rushed me. They kept the food out, warm, and welcoming the entire time, even as I unknowingly stayed about 25 minutes past closing. The four employees I interacted with were so kind-hearted and gracious — genuine people who clearly care about their customers. I can’t apologize enough for staying late, but I left with such a positive impression. Pand
