    There is no more buffet. You can do dine in or takeout, but I would say it is more of a takeout place. The food is really good and is made to order.

    As some one who has lived in Missouri their entire life, been to every local restaurant more times than I can remember then seeing all these "critics" giving a one star review because they compare it to some "5 star restaurant" in their state. Not even going to the state they are criticizing the restaurant in, makes me SICK! I went to Texas, Tried a replica restaurant that was fancier, bigger, and was a "go up and grab it yourself" kind of buffet. The food there wasn't even good. Most of the options were just breaded chicken, sugary sweets, or half done rice. They focused to much on implementing the culture of the people who the restaurant is based around and did a terrible joke actually making the food. This China buffet isn't focused to make the fancy as possible, it's a takeout and we always ordered take out and it never ruined the experience. The food is 10 times better than what I've had of "Chinese" styled food in forever. If you never went to a Chinese styled place or at least this place, I would recommend the dumplings and the crab Rangoon as a first pick.

    Best chicken fried rice ever. So much extra veggies, it's like an entire meal in a tiny package. So so on the indoor dining, but I'm there for the food, not to talk to people. People suck, shut up and eat.
