Customer Reviews
We drove from Jefferson City to experience this restaurant, and it exceeded our expectations. Unfortunately, Jefferson City's Chinese food scene has regressed, with many establishments serving subpar dishes. In contrast, this restaurant's offerings were remarkable, with fresh ingredients and flavors reminiscent of traditional Chinese cuisine. The chef(s) deserve praise for their dedication to quality and efficient service. The waitresses were outstanding, displaying warmth, enthusiasm, and attentiveness. Their joy was palpable, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. We look forward to returning and appreciate the exceptional service.
Thank you Panda Restaurant for serving my wife and I tonight. Really great food!! Pretty great waitresses who were very attentive.
The best Chinese buffet in the state! Food is fresh, quality is consistently great. Terrific value. I've never had better fried chicken wings anywhere else. Don't be worried about empty pans on the buffet; they are dedicated to providing FRESH food and don't load up the pans during slow periods. They will make things for you and you can enjoy the other items during the short wait. I have been here many times and have NEVER been disappointed!
Small business. Usually nice atmosphere. Sometimes the ceiling fans cause a strobe effect under the lights. The staff is friendly without being intrusive. This is very much a peak time buffet. If not peak lunch and dinner times, buffet it limited. Their carry out is fantastic. Buffet to go choices however, is limited to peak meal times. Overall, a pleasant place to enjoy a Chinese American buffet meal. You gotta try the fried crab bites and the peppered chicken.
It's okay. I know it's in a small town so it won't have lots of frills, but it is a bit small and gets cramped when half a dozen people are waiting at the counter while others are trying to get buffet food. I placed a to go order which was to be ready in 15-20 min, but I don't think they even started it until after I arrived 20 minutes later. Food taste is average.
