Are they really gone? Yayyyyyy!
by mrsmolly at Citysearch
Horrible food, horrible staff. If they're really gone then good riddance. Customers wont come back when the food is bad and the service worse.
- Pros: as if! lol
- Cons: bad food, bad staff
Absolutely Wretched
by saliasbrown at Citysearch
Food was awful. Tasted like rubber socks. Cold. Out of date.
Read the positive reviews and see if you dont think theyre all wirtten by the same person. Probably someone that works there.
- Cons: I should have been paid to eat here.
Bad Experience - We Wont Be Back
by joefriendly at Citysearch
Friday June 15th, about 6pm: I dont know if we caught them on a bad day, but the buffet food was cold had had the look of having been left under the lights since the lunch hour. The seafood was especially 'unfresh'. My wife and I left after just a few bites--and paying 'halfa price' of course.
I did some research and found that th latest available inspection score was 56 (out of 100, with 70 the pass/fail line) I just filed a complaint with the department of TX that inspects food establishments (the name is not allowed in these reviews.)
- Pros: Close to Adobe
- Cons: Food was awful - unhealthy in my opinion
I Felt Robbed
by mnq at Citysearch
This place was so lousy that I had to write a review. Unidentifiable meat, cold soup and flavorless greasy sauces. I really felt like we were robbed to pay for that food, if you could call it that. We will not be going back.
Too greasy!
by utsarah02 at Citysearch
They left a menu on my apartment door, so I decided to try them out. I ordered take out and was not impressed. The food was dripping in grease to the point that it made me feel queasy. I won't be going back.
- Pros: Staff seemed friendly
- Cons: dripping in grease
I don't think that was chicken.

My husband and I tried this place and have honestly never been more disappointed with any other eatery. The staff was friendly, but the food was horrible, I'm afraid. The hot and sour soup was cold and tasted nothing like it should, they forgot our appetizer but the worst part was our entrees. We ordered two dishes with chicken in them and both of them were inedible. It tasted nothing like chicken so I'm assuming THE POULTRY HAD SPOILED. We never send things back, but we would have were we not afraid we would get something else that had turned bad. We just paid and left. I felt too sick to then go eat elsewhere. What a disappointment!
- Cons: food was spoiled
Cold food, rude management
by sjashnan27 at Citysearch
This place is bad. Even though there are a lot of varities, the buffet was absolutely cold. When I complained to the manager, she uttered something in Chinese which sounded derogatory. I just walked off at that time.
- Pros: Got no pros
- Cons: bad food, no parking (alamo), cold food
