City King Buffet

This is the typical Chinese buffet with many of the same choices as any other. They do have Hibachi and it was stocked with many choices. The cook fixed mine exactly as I asked and it was very good. Everything that I tried from the buffet was flavorful and seemed fresh, there was nothing that really wowed me it was just the typical fare from a Chinese buffet. The service was pretty good, our server kept our used dishes cleared but never asked if we needed a refill on our drinks. I ate here traveling through and would again if I were there. All in all it was a solid 7 out of 10.

My nephew chose this restaurant for his graduation dinner lastnight. Myself along with ten of my family members were directed to the "party section" without being told ahead of time that their would be an extra charge for sitting there. The food was old, hard, & just overall GROSS! They didn't refill our drinks when needed & we were constantly being rushed the whole time we were there. When the bill came, they had added an additional $30 "tip" without our knowledge. When I confronted them, the lady behind the pay counter was rude while explaining why this "tip" had been added. She explained that the reason they added the extra charge was because of the amount of people we had with us & because we sat in the party section (that we never asked for). She stated that all "high end" restaurants do this (they do not). Apparently they consider themselves a high end restaurant when City King Buffet isn't high end! I paid the bill & told them that we wouldn't be back. Adding unknown charges to someone's bill & hoping the don't notice, should be a crime! Watch out for extra charges if you choose to eat at City King Buffet in Mount Sterling, KY!

The people who work up front are extremely rude for no reason. I'm not sure how they expect to make it in a small town like Mount Sterling with their attitude. Good luck. Also, the food was terrible.

Disgusting !! The lady behind the payment desk went on a sneezing spree out in the front of the restaurant- did NOT cover her mouth / nose at all! Then she went behind the counter in full view and hacked up two loogies and spit them into the trash can . She then sneezed again , spat again , NEVER WASHED HER HANDS OR USED SANITIZER , and began to touch the handles of some of the food. The most disgusting thing I've ever witnessed . Gross , dirty - DISEASE PIT.

Walked in to Discover old food that appeared to have been sitting out for hours, needless to say I left to eat elsewhere.

Great food clean buffet nice staff fair prices. Food is hot and fresh and well attended.

Went in today with 11yr old granddaughter and because this weekend is the big October Court days in Mt. Sterling I was charged double. They charged fir her as adult. Price gagging is crazy. $40 well it wasn't worth it. Food was cold and hard. Lady at payout was rude.

We give City King Buffet 5 stars because of many reasons. They always have a wide variety of DELICIOUS and FRESH food choices. As well as hibachi which is always amazing. The owners and the staff are very friendly and make you feel at home. The servers are welcoming and quick to clear finished plates and provide refills. The restaurant is clean (as are the restrooms). We usually eat here once a week and our experience is always wonderful. We leave full & happy Check them out you will be glad you did

The food was hard and nasty. Went to pay for 2 adults and 8 yr old cost was 55.83 when looked at receipt charged an unknown tip on it. Went back in an confronted cashier he was rude and hostle because we demanded the money back. When giving the money he tried to wrongfully take he said for us not to return. No problem had no intention of going back. Food was nasty and unbeatable.

Bourbon chicken was cold , noodles were cold , sweet and sour chicken was over cooked and had a odd taste of shrimp . I got one plate and asked for the check , I was still hungry but I couldn't play myself to get a second .
