2 /5 Ericka Santos: I was surprised I could not get a change of drink in the entire time I was there. I was drinking ice water for the last 20 minutes because my female server never came to switch me out with a new one, and when I’d hope she’d notice, I’d turn around to find her, and she was in a small area on the left back hiding. My date did leave a tip for her, so that was not warranted for how she treated me. He did get a switch out of his drink because the only time she did come to switch out drinks, he needed one, and I guess she didn’t switch mine at this time. Had she kept coming with this goal in mind, she would have noticed me needing one then. This was the worse part of our visit, considering I ate soy sauce and spicy food and needed a drink because my ice melted and had nothing left. I left with my throat very dry. The food choice is limited. They did not have my favorite, which is cold shrimp. Cold shrimp is my reason to visit buffet style restaurants, and the gulf is so near this restaurant that shrimp access is available! I also visit Chinese buffet style restaurants for the oven garlic shrimp, or maybe they’re friend in oil, but they’re different than the fried breaded option they did have, and all Chinese buffet style restaurants have them. They also didn’t have crab legs, which I always get in these style of buffet restaurants. So three of my choice options were not available. This was not a good option for what I like, so my review is just about these disappointments not necessarily the taste of the food that was available to me. The options are very limited, but the available food did not disappoint. The food available tasted good, but then again, all Chinese buffet restaurants, generally, have good tasting food. If you don’t mind the lack of many options, this Chinese restaurant will work for you. It just has two small aisles and the salad bar. I, literally, took a picture of everything available. I had a good time because of my company, and the atmosphere is quiet. It’s a small restaurant that just probably needs a little more food, and they truly have the space available to make up for the things they don’t have on the left side of the restaurant. They just like to keep it limited. Now, since I didn’t pay, I’m not sure about pricing. I presume the pricing would be less than at these other Chinese full buffet restaurants because if it’s the same, I’d be extra concerned.
