They have a large variety of food on their buffet. I would say it’s a little better than the standard as far as flavor and freshness of the food on the buffet goes. Good spacing available between food bars and tables. My grandfather was able to ride his scooter through the restaurant without trouble. The place was clean and staff were friendly. Did not feel rushed at any point (but was also an off hour for eating)

I have been going to this restaurant for many years. The food is great, the people & staff always remember our drink orders since we're regulars, the atmosphere is a classic chinese diner and while other reviews whine and complain, I find this place amazing for their buffet prices. Never had a bad visit in all the years me & my husband have been going here. Great for families, couples or a quick bite.

This is our "go-to" place for Chinese in Cedar Rapids/Marion. The food is ALWAYS great and served hot & fresh. We usually get here about the time they open for lunch cuz it does get pretty busy. The restaurant could use a little updating and a face-lift. The food is too good here to have an out of date/worn decor. They do offer a discount to military, Veterans, and first responders. Definitely stop here if you're looking for great Chinese food.
