The host was very beautiful and nice. The food is good and I loved the ice cream. Good pricing too. Four of us went in for lunch and the total was 40.40; we will be coming back for sure.

A very favorite spot for me, I have been going for over 15 years now. Under 20.00 for favorite items, general tso etc. I bring friends. TV often has political news on, this very cultural setting, Spanish and Asian seem interested in the news. I have always felt comfortable there, even alone. Alot of working men attend, always enough food for a hungry person.

I have dined at China Buffet on Charlotte Pike in West Nashville since they opened over 15 years ago. Tommy, the restauranteur, and his progeny have become friends of in the years that have gone by. I did not dine today, although the buffet looked beautiful as always. I am still buffet wary due to the pandemic. Stopped by just to see the China Buffet family, and was treated to a very pleasant surprise by the Master Chef.

I enjoy there food. I have never gotten sick. Staff is always very friendly. Ac could be colder and the bathroom could be spritzed up a little. I will still give 5 stars.

It's one of the best hidden gems I've found thus far. If you enjoy Chinese food and all you can eat, I would highly recommend giving them a try. Wonderful food and wonderful service.

The ice cream was really hard to scoop especially since I had to use a regular spoon that got severely bent. Would go again.

I really liked the food and the service that I received here everything was very good All the traditional buffet items were great and the prices were not high at all . Yes the place is a little dated I am sure they are struggling a bit I suggest giving them a shot 14.75 out the door without a drink It can cost you that much at Wendy’s
