Very clean and served right away. The food bar was stocked well and there were many choices.....all were delicious!! Cleared used dishes quickly. Will definitely go again!!

The staff and management are friendly. The amount of food options in the buffet are in abundance. There is also sushi, an ice cream machine, and cakes and cookies. The price is great and the food is amazing!!! Always fresh!! Check this place out for sure. Whether you like Chinese food or not, there's something you will love.

As usual, the service was spectacular. From the greater, to our waitress, to the cashier--all super friendly and welcoming. The food was good as usual. I always enjoy the food here-- especially the Mongolian grill and the green beans.

The food here is absolutely amazing! My first China buffet. Everything I had on my plate was very fresh and tasty! Date night was a success. Will definitely be coming back here every Friday. ☺️

Me and my husband try and go eat here once a week usually a Saturday or Sunday!! We drive from Oklahoma to eat here we absolutely love this food such good prices fresh food clean restaurant and the most friendly staff ever!! We have our favorite waitresses we recommend this place to anyone that loves chineae food!!! 🙏❤

Food was great i always get takeout so I can't speak for the buffet

Great selection! Everything was fresh and they keep replacing cooler dishes with hot ones all the time. Super friendly staff. Very affordable. Did not expect the quality to be so great. 100% recommend. Will return.

1.00 extra to take a nearly 3.00 drink i couldn't finish, a root beer. 😠 😡 😤

My favorite Chinese restaurant! Great food!

Love eating here when the food is fresh

I was there this week first as take out and then to dine in. The take out (egg drop and hot and sour soups) was handled with great professionalism and courtesy! The dine in experience was outstanding as well. The food options were well presented, hot and a good price. Thoroughly enjoyed the soft serve ice cream. Going back today

First time eating here, the food was fresh and of course delicious, my waiter was a soft spoken young lady very polite and courteous! This restaurant was super clean and tables were spaced not bunched together like most places! Will definitely be back 😊

I read about this place through the Wonton Post and I just had to check it out. I drive from Tyler Tx to eat here and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Best Chinese cuisine I have had thus far. 10 Stars ⭐️

My kids love this place. Not a big selection on sushi, but it's always fresh and plenty of it.

Have been going here for years with my family. Love the place, always very clean and the staff is so sweet and friendly. Food is always fresh and hot and tastes great ! Made friends who recognize me and my family when we walk in. I recommend this place to everyone who wants a great place to eat and a nice place to be and visit. I will always go back for more 😄 VERY INEXPENSIVE !

Very good food. I had the Walnut Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken with hot and sour soup. It was all tasty and the service was great. Never had to flag someone down our waiter was very attentive to our needs. Can't wait to go back and try more of the many awesome foods that have.

My Dad and I use to go here for dinner and to just sit and chat. I don't go out to eat often, but with 2 hungry teenagers and being a single mom, this is always a good deal. Kids get a nice varity and at least at dinner time (around 5), the food is always fresh. The staff are also really sweet!

Great food. Great staff, my sweet never got below half full before a staff was checking if you would like a refill. Wonderful assortment of buffet food. 😄

Carla Wade

Love the food. The buffet is huge. There is something for everyone. I always leave happy!

Jullie Bratcher

Been going here for years before moving away went in on Christmas day for the first time being back. It was just as amazing as we remember the food is always good and consistent. The staff is always nice. We watched the customer ahead of us grumble something about a review and throw money at the owner. The owner thanked him as he stormed out not really understanding what his concerns were. She remained as professional and kind as they always are. Plates were cleared and drinks refilled quickly.

Geoffrey Lin

Food quality here was surprisingly better than I expected for the price. Everything tasted hot and fresh. I especially enjoyed the hot and sour soup, the chicken ball and the green beans. The noodles, egg rolls and other vegetables were pretty standard but still good enough. My only gripe was that the onions in the fried rice were a little too raw. Other than that everything else was good including the friendly service.

Cassandra Davis

1st time trying a Chinese buffet sticky rice was good with Tso Chicken I liked the jalapeno chicken Sweet biscuit pork teriyaki on stick try the egg foo young with sirachi pretty good they even hav a dessert bar with light dessert items had a self service ice cream machine would recommend I didnt even get a plate of veggies from bar so much to choose from.

Savage Outdoors

Really good food. The stickybrice and teriyaki chicken was great. Sushi bar was not real big but everything there was good. The price was awesome. $21.60 for two with water, great price the the food you get!!!

They always have a good selection and is fresh, clean and friendly. The booth seat I sat in was taped. I understand it's hard to keep everything in top shape, with a busy establishment. Just don't forget to put that profit back into the business.

If you’re looking for okish buffet food. Look no further. It’s as ok as it can get!! But they refill your drinks in a timely manner, they know there regulars, and they are happy to assist you in anyway possible! Come on in and look at the fancy chandeliers and have some free ice cream after your plate of food in the fancy dishes!!

Food was not awesome but good and fresh from the buffet. This is the only place I know of that allows take-out from a buffet however when we checked our the lady at the register was really rude and seemed irritated that we had gotten to go from the buffet. If it's irritating then don't allow it...I mean it costs 12$ so what are they losing..

It's a local classic, but isn't perfect. As it's in a smaller city, it's understandable that they don't go above and beyond with their variety, but sometimes I'd wish they had a better variation and assortment of foods. But hey, all of it's very edible and very fulfilling. I've gone to much bigger and more presentable chinese buffets that made me almost vomit because they some how screwed everything up. But here they seem to have mastered the art of consistently good food.

Had lunch here on Christmas day while travelling across the country. They were one of the few places open. So glad we did! It was spacious, and had a great variety of options. Staff was curtious and cheerful. Also at $9.50 it's a great deal!

it was good and nice assortment of food wasn’t to bad all kinda had the same flavor to me the jello was very good tho the grill wasn’t open either we went around 12-1 it was pretty busy. i don’t know if i would go back but if you like this type of food it’s for you just not me.

We enjoyed our visit. We showed up a half hour before closing and there was still a great deal of food. The waiter was ALWAYS on top of our needs, he even showed up with napkins right after our daughter spilled her water, helped clean it up and brought fresh water, without being asked to help.

Pretty good buffet. Management was reasonable with covid requirements. Good to see a fair number of patrons in and out. The staff was very attentive to our needs and wants. Great place to eat in Paris Texas!

Had everything I like. Food was hot. The crab ragoons were big and full of the stuffing

Love the food. Appreciate the attentive service. Get you in and out quickly. I enjoy the Buffet. It is resplendent, especially the 3 or more styles of shrimp. They make sumptuous take out, usually in 10 minutes or less from my call. The "house fried rice" is the best! It has beef, pork, chicken & 🍤shrimp. 1 order makes 2 meals for me, a great value! 🚫05/2018 discovered they confidently won't accept takeout orders after 8:30, tho close at 10:00 p.m. 🐍Seems they're cleaning the kitchen & prefer to sell from the buffet leavings. Minus a ✰.

Very good food and reasonably priced.

Fair buffet selection food taste excellent salad bar desert buffet is ok.

Dyetanya Williams

It's not much to look at, but the good was pretty good. The hot and sour soup is exactly like I expect it to taste. The crab salad was good as well. The wasbi was too loose and had a bit of a floral taste, so I didn't like it at all. The women's bathroom was not okay. I walked in, and walked right back out. It's a good thing, I keep handiwipes in my purse.

Pretty decent food. Not spectacular, but you're not going to a buffet for cheese lobster, Singapore noodle or other delicacies. 3.5 stars for the food and the staff bumped it to 4 stars. Filling food leaning heavy towards chicken and pork. The beef egg rolls were good. The Chinese mustard was excellent.

The service is good. This place is huge. Their food is okay. Maybe don't eat their sushi? I tried some and it was crunchy. That said, this is the only place with Chinese food and it's like? 10 bucks a plate? Go off Golden China. I may end up here again solely because of cravings.

I can here with 2 adults 1 11yr old and they charge my 4yr old for a buffet? Was almost $50 for 2 adults and a 11yr old and they charged us for a 4yr old who eats like a bird. I asked if he was free when we walked in and the guy never responded and led us to a table. 4yr old should be free they don't even eat anything

Not into Chinese food. Thought shrimp might be a good change. Only had one dish with shrimp in a white sauce. Was good just not what I wanted

Normally!! $10 buffee is a catch, but it doesn't work like that here. This place does not have much variety to offer. You don't have enough fruits or much of a variety when it comes to choosing . Best thing is the grill; where you can make your own. Place is friendly and clean. :)

We went during the lunch rush and food was still old. Beef and broccoli was soaked in oil. Noodles had a weird taste. Sad this is the best Paris can do for Chinese food.

Perhaps it was an off day, the food was heavily salted and not cooked well. The chicken for sweet and sour chicken had breading so thick that didn't cook through so it was gummy, the peppers and onions in the steak and peppers were still pretty much raw while the steak was chewy... someday I'll try again, but it'll be a whilemb

I typically get the buffet to go. I'm always happy with it because well, it's a buffet. Not the best Chinese type food around but it does the job. Menu seems to never change. That's a good or bad depending how you see it. I'd like to see a Crab 🦀 day.

Golden China Buffet – Where Dreams and Egg Rolls Both Get Soggy If you’re in the mood for lukewarm lo mein and a game of “Is That Chicken or Mystery Meat?”, Golden China Buffet is ready to test your taste buds. The buffet selection is wide, and while some dishes teeter on the edge of nostalgia, there’s a quirky charm in every bite. The General Tso’s chicken? More like General Tso’s surprise—crispy on the outside with a tender inside that sometimes delivers a pleasant shock. And even the crab rangoons, while a bit light on filling, still bring that unmistakable hint of creamy delight. Final verdict? 3 out of 5 dumplings. It’s an affordable all-you-can-eat experience that might not win gourmet awards, but if you’re in the mood for a casual, no-frills Chinese feast, it’s worth the trip.

Place is just ok. Quick bite but that's it. ALSO DONT DIRECTLY DRINK FROM THE CUPS USE THE STRAWS I was heading to the Walmart after and went here first before hand and when I left I was short of breath feeling hot flashes not sure if I was going to be able to get hole safely so instead of going to Walmart I went to the er and lone and behold Covid They don't really clean the cups or silverware

Food tastes amazing but not a real good variety and for a buffet there's not a lot in the trays to sustain a rush of people at once may go through 3 to 5 people and a pan is empty service was slow but steady atmosphere was good and clean

Lynette Smith-Maxie

This was a spontaneous decision. I decided to stop in since it wasn’t that many people in the restaurant. The food was pretty good, they kept running out of food. I didn’t see the Beef & Broccoli they had chicken & Broccoli. The chicken balls were delicious as well as the fried rice. The restaurant had a distinctive smell. Waitress could have been a little better. Overall I would recommend.

Not a fan of this place. Just being honest. Food is often left out on the self serve bar for lengthy periods and results in an upset stomach for me. But if you are a big eater and quality is not high on your list then you will like the unlimited trips to serve yourself. I wish I could report better news but it works for many folks, just not for me.

Very limited variety, less choices. Some dishes were over salty and looked like it sat in the hot pan for a very long time. I would not recommend this spot.

It’s a hit or miss…. For a buffet it’s not bad but I will say this what was good one day maybe not be good the next visit. Sometimes the food is hot and most the time it’s eh warm.. if you are starving you’ll find something good.

Great choice of food. Great atmosphere. Really good eating. UPDATE! Went at opening time over the holiday weekend. 5/25/19 Service was good, food was not like it had been the last 3 times I visited. Removing TWO stars. The food AT OPENING time was NOT HOT. The choices, because the staff eats from the buffet, were SLIM. You would think that the buffet would be best at opening time. NOT HERE.

You get what you pay for - 2 buffets and 1 drink was less than $25. For a buffet that's great price but... the food was dry, the service was sparce, and the stomach aches and pains that started about an hour and half after leaving for both of us, made us not want to ever go back. The tastiest part of the meal was the fortune cookies.

Went for lunch buffet, never saw a waitress. Someone left a lemonade on my table, but never got a drink. At checkout was ask if I had a drink I said no, and explained. I was still charged for a drink. Grill was good, left a tip at grill.

Usually this place is my pick to go to, but today October 18, 2024, was not even close. The food was mediocre, the service ok, but it was the atmosphere. No one smiled at me, greeted me, or even how I was. Now my gripe is usually if you see a pepper shaker, there's also a salt shaker as well. Not here! They've removed it and placed packets in the bowl with the sugar. When I ask where the salt was he said on the table and in a very loud gruff voice he yelled at me and said in here and held the sugar bowl up. I would have never guessed he would speak to a customer in that way as much as I would have never imagined they would place salt packets in the sugar bowl. Don't think I'll be coming back since I live in another town and came here specifically for the atmosphere in this restaurant.

Horrible!!!! The front end employees obviously do not want to be at work. The employees bringing out fresh food are very nice. The food was yucky, not many choices, not hot. We had to ask for a tea refill, even though he passed our table several times. The guy taking our money is just as gloomy as the hired front end help. Obviously we will not return.

Catfish was dry, and then the noodles tasted like cardboard and I found over four prices of hair in my noodles. over all was just bad and the fact two ppl to eat in is the same as two tiny to go boxes place is basically a scam

The food was not fresh. It was peek lunch time. But the food was old. They are just reheating frozen food not cooking fresh. Better off going to frozen food isle at Wal-Mart. When the sever walked by with a wet rag to wipe table the smell of bleach was so strong there no way it was safe.

Oof, idk what happened here. They were one of the best Chinese restaurants in the surrounding area. But the buffets food quality has really went downhill. We went on a Sunday. There was a full house inside. So the food should have been fresh. The sushi was dry, and tasted horribly fishy and old. Even the ole tried and trues were greasy and tasteless. And to top it off. Both me and my son got a lovely dessert of a stomach ache. Come one you guys, you can do better.

We’re very easy to please and we chose this place from the good reviews here but omg I’ve never been to a Chinese buffet and had 0 success no matter what I tried. All the chicken tasted old, the seasonings were bland, nothing tasted “right”. Even the egg rolls weren’t good. I’m sad because we had high hopes. The workers are lovely and it’s a clean place so that helps. For reference we tried a little of fried rice, sesame chicken, lomein, meat skewers, egg rolls, sweet and sour chicken. All thumbs down. The waitress chased me out when I forgot my jacket tho so that was nice lol!

I called to ask if they did take out. They said yes. Then I asked if they did plates. They said yes, with fried rice and egg roll. I asked if I could get cream cheese wantons, they said yes. Then when I asked for the price. They said it was was buffet to go. I said I didn't want a buffet just the plate. They said they couldn't do that. Because I wanted to much. I asked if I could just do the plate, and then they said something about they won't do that because of the kitchen. I'm so confused. I would love some clarification. Thanks. I hope the food is good for those who have tried it!

We stopped here on Christmas Day since it was the only place open. We should have just saved our money and had our travel snacks. The food was freezer burnt. All the meats were too chewy to eat. The only good thing was the fried sugar donuts. Meh.

J PTexas

Second time we visited here. Very disappointed this time. Food was cold and tasted old. The only hot thing was the soup. Will have to pass on eating here.

Mister Carlos

I told the person at the front counter, presumably a manager, that the chicken was cold. She tried to tell me that the food would be cold because the hot food is at the bottom and the air condition makes everything cold at the top. She said she would let someone know. I'd bet that if I had a thermometer, most of the food is in the danger zone temperatures per local guidelines of the local health department. This place is better at the beginning of lunch and dinner. Otherwise, the food's quality is not consistent. I came in two days later, and the problem was still there: cold chicken and cold fried shrimp. Since this is such a concern, I will not be back for a while! This restaurant needs to be audited by the Helath Department. Maybe some fines from the Health Department would make the owners aware of a legitimate problem?!

Kimmie Robinson

We went during regular lunch hours but the food was not fresh. The egg rolls were chewy and so was the meat in the broccoli/beef. Sushi was old and sticky like it had been sitting a while. It was definitely not the best Chinese buffet I have been too. It was $40 for 2 adults and one child, so kind of pricey considering we didn’t eat much. It was clean. It was conveniently located off the interstate and close to Walmart. Plenty of parking. Staff was so-so. But the food was not that great, and for that reason, I won’t go back. I’m going to look for other options in the area.

Tony Combs

Oh my! I really don't know where to start. My wife and I love to check out Chinese buffets when on road trips, and this one is not on the return list. Much of the food was not hot even though they were putting out "fresh" on the buffet. They had a Mongolian grill, but the only protein was sliced beef and very limited on vegetables and only rice noodles. Very disappointing grill. The server was non attentive and never refilled out 8oz cups while we were there. This place is very overpriced for the offerings and service. I did like the decor and dining area as it was spaced out and looked like a Chinese restaurant as it should. Parking wasn't horrible either.

The food was ill you could tell that the food was fried in old oil the service was okay they weren’t really doing anything and just standing around when someone needed help the atmosphere was gross it stunk peoples attitudes were terrible and the food was so bad I threw up

Came in at 3:15 for the lunch buffet. Food was cold. Left at 4 and was charged supper price because of the seafood that they put out at 4pm after we were done eating. Place is dirty and wouldn't eat here for free.

I I could leave 0 ⭐ I would place is disgusting better off saving your money and going to panda Express rice was old and black meat had 0 flavor, general cho chicken still had 🦴 or something in it let's just say I'm not eating for next few days that's how bad this place is will never be back and the 4.2 rating is a joke no way they are better than Panda Express not in Freshness, Cleanliness, or Quality there is not good real Chinese out here save your money or be discussed.

If i could put negative stars i would The checkout desk clerk kept staring at me and the food was horrible it was cold and seasoned very poorly! The chicken taste like it was refrigerated and left open for 2-3 days veryyy rubbery, the price was not good for the food that is served! I have ate at Chinese places before and the same foods were 1000 times better litterly anywhere else!!

The shrimp tasted like it was cooked in old grease. The chicken was very dry. All meat dishes that were cooked with vegetables were mostly vegetables. Very little meat, and what I got was tough, the waitress was rude. We won't be going back! I see why you have a one star rating.

This was my second time eating here and I only went back because the other buffet wasn't open yet. I ate 6 bites out of two plates. The shrimp was definitely close to being spoiled, the Walnut chicken tasted like nothing but mayonnaise, even my soda was watered down. There was literally nothing to like about this food and the manager only took $3 off the tab because" he had to cover food costs". Well as soon as we got home my son started throwing up and my daughter and sister ran to the restrooms. Stay away from this place!!!

Terrible experience. Most of the food is cold and tasteless. Don't waste your $. Hopefully we don't get sick.

I had a super long hair in my food. As I was gagging, because it went in my mouth, the manager said it wasn't theirs, and I'm responsible to pay. She kept going on and on, I told her to take the payment and let me leave before I threw up. I was disgusted and will NOT be eating there again.

Horrible experience. Food was over cooked and most was cold. Tried to voice problems to manager and she barely acknowledged the problem and best advice she could give was not to come back. Wouldn't even let me speak with someone else. Definitely won't be going back

Disappointing. The food looks fresh, but tastes like it's been left out and reheated. I left most of the food on my plate, so it definitely was not worth the price.

Rate a (-5). Very BAD. We got there at 8p. Only 1 item on my plate was remotely warm. The other two adults said all their food wasn't warm at all. When I complained, the manager said, "you should've gotten your food off the bottom, not the top. You can microwave it if you like." Didn't bring me the lemon I asked for, for my tea. No waitress service for us. Couldn't find one, except the one that was eating. Wouldn't let me take my half a glass of tea home, even after the bad experience. It was probably $2.50 for that half glass. WAS $45.00 for 3 buffets with tea. Too much. I will NEVER, EVER go back. EVER! 😡

Used to be good no longer really worth it!! The need a serious remodel and revamp to the menu!!! The egg drop soup is good 👍

We came two days in a row thinking the first day, maybe they were just having a bad day. Second day the food was cold, dry and nasty. We told them their food was cold and dry. She never mentions a discount only to say I’m sorry the air conditioner. No ma’am this is not my first time there. The food has never been cold before. Actuality this was one of my favorite places to eat until today. It will be a long time before I come back. Paris need places that don’t just throw food together to make money. What a waste.

Food was cold except the egg flower soup. It just wasn’t good like it used to be. Will be my last time eating there.

A old lady fell on the nasty floor and the employees laughed at her. The food was cold and nasty! The chicken was hard and the rice was nasty! We will never come back!!!

Food was horrible this time around. I’m not sure if there’s a new cook or what.

Found roaches crawling n the rice on the bar, got a workers attention all he did was remove it from the pan left the rice to still be eaten. I didn't even want to look at the other food after that. I've been eating here for years but I promise Golden China will never have my business again.

We ate there Nope we went got our food started eating and I decided I wanted a little something else so I got a plate went to get something and the guy working had a fly swat killed a fly the fly fell in some sauce he dipped the fly out and went about his way . That was last year never been back never plan on going back. If he done that with me watching then what might the kitchen be like. Never again

DonnaJo Cabe

They should make it a Mexican Buffet this place is just AWFUL ANYMORE PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOME WHERE ELSE

Mary Collier

The food was lukewarm to cold coming off the steamtable. Shrimp was over-cooked & some raw. We will never go back again!

Connie Perry

We ate there today for lunch, I used my mothers day gift certificate, I was so disappointed! The food was overcooked." The beef in the beef and broccoli was so tough (my husband and I couldn't even chew it), it might as well have been boot leather! I still have money on my gift card but I am not sure I am going to use it. It was that bad! They had corn nuggets under the "shrimp" label, and man, that was a gross surprise. The corn in the nuggets also tasted a week or 2 old. You could tell most the food had been there since they opened, and we were there around 1pm, it was nasty.

Anna Grant

I can’t tell you how disappointed I was. I went to eat with my husband and son about 5pm. The food was cold and tasted like it was HOURS old! The teriyaki chicken was cold, the other chicken was as hard as a rock and it was all disgusting to say the least. I’ve NEVER had an experience this bad at this location.

Tabitha Garrison

Sitting here for about 20 min I've tried almost everything on the buffet and I'm sorry i can't eat this. I won't return. The only reason locals think it's good is because they don't know real good Chinese food. No flavor, over cooked, not sure what season they use to take all the flavor out of everything. $12 per person ×4+for a glass of water and air conditioning.
