China Ming Buffet

Arriving at 1pm on a weekday, the buffet was still well stocked and had a nice variety of proteins. Beef and broccoli, chicken and broccoli, chicken for sweet & sour, General Tsao's chicken, chow mein and mei fun and other noodles, egg rolls and more.I had no problem finding items that were not deep fried and not loaded in sauce to make a filling lunch. And for dessert, an ice cream sandwich from the cooler was a delight.It's not a huge variety with only two steam tables but they do a good job and I'd eat here again.[Review 2175 of 2024 - 3832 in North Carolina - 23194 overall]

Dang, I was hoping we would find a new go to. Not going to happen. We stopped for lunch. The place wasn't very busy. Service was good.Food tasted like the frozen Chinese food from the grocery store. Absolutely nothing special. Will not be back.

Today was my first and last time trying this place. I ordered takeout. The food was extremely dry and almost flavorless. My dad got the shrimp lo mein and said it was not good and really dry. My general Tao's chicken was more like dried jerky with almost no sauce. Lo mein noodles were also very dry even after adding soy sauce. The "egg rolls" only had one single strand of cabbage in each one. Even my dog (80lb German Shepherd) refused to eat the egg roll. She ate some chicken but then started hacking immediately afterwards. Guess it was too dry for her too. Wish I would've read some reviews before I decided to go here. I've lived here (Lexington NC) my whole (39yrs) life and never knew this restaurant even existed. I guess maybe there was a reason for that. Panda Panda is wayyy better!!

China Ming Buffet has seen better days. I ate here with my family, not expecting awesome food, but at least tasty, which is usually what it is. I usually spend $50-$60 here for two adults and 5 children, which is not worth that, but it still gets the job done. I came here a few nights ago, and did not expect to pay $90!Why isn't China Ming Buffet worth it? There are tons of different varieties of chicken, even baked chicken! What you would usually expect from a buffet is variety, and there really isn't here.There are desserts, such as jello, pudding, and cake (which is dry). There are fixings for a salad. If you're looking to enjoy sushi, don't count on it at this restaurant. If you're a chicken hawk, this is your one-stop shop. From Teriyaki, sweet and sour, baked, honey, general Tso's, and even chicken nuggets! You got it.

We've been several times. It's usually our go to when we want a Chinese buffet. The food is typical Chinese buffet food, nothing special. The selection is small but the staff is friendly. As long as you don't have high expectations you'll like it.

This Chinese food is not the best. Mediocre at best. Tasteless and one can barely tell the difference in the taste of the entrees for example general Tso chicken tastes like sesame chicken. So if your really craving Chinese this place might do, but I think it will leave you wanting. The food is like a spare tire it will get you where ur going, but it's not the real thing.

@ryantrahan #ryantrahan In the spirit of Ryan, at the request of our granddaughter who follows Ryan Trahan, we are going to give a 5 star review to an average reviewed restaurant. The jello was on point. Didn't see Oliver Tree or anyone famous but the server was friendly and attentive. A typical Chinese buffet with several tasty dishes. They kept the buffet filled and hot. Seems very popular for takeout.

I had a piece of foil breaded into a wing. I threw what had away and called to inform them so I could get my money back. Do you know once I arrived to show her she stated she was not giving me my money back due to I didn't bring the rest of the wings and that she could place a new order. I'm sorry I don't know who would eat there again or especially right after that happen. I WILL NOT BE BACK EVER!!!!!!

Not the worst but far from the best. White rice smelled weird, some of the meats were dry.

If I could have given less than one star I would have . $60 for food that had no taste .chicken was wierd texture spit it out . Never ordering from here again . Only thing worth eating were the cheese Rangoon .
