Tried this place because of their review ratings. Selection is extremely small and I don't consider fried potatoes, corn nuggets and fried sweet potatoes as Chinese food which made their selection even smaller. I waited for fresh food as they literally waited until a pan was empty to refresh even if what was available was old and dried out. The couple of things I did eat was tasty but cold. I went at 1pm which is the latest I will eat a lunch buffet due to freshness. I'll pass next time do to very few, maybe 8 actual Chinese options, none of which was a garlic or spicy dish. Not the worst place but would not recommend.

My family and I came to this restaurant despite the reviews just to try it. And the reviews don't lie. The food was bland and overcooked. As you can see in the pictures where we were seated there were dirty dishes on the tables and there wasn't a waitress or busboy who came around and cleared tables till we left. These are just a couple pics I took but overall it was 7 tables that just had dirty dishes just sitting on the table. I don't know who runs/owns the restaurant but their staff is not good with keeping the restaurant clean or the cooks. Don't go here if you want good food.

This is my new favorite Chinese Restaurant. I stopped for a to-go order. They were very helpful when I wanted to know what chicken dishes do not have breaded chicken. They had several options. Everything was delicious. I will definitely come back.

Best keep secret in Foley. Consistently great! I’ve been eating here for 33 years. Discovered it the night before my oldest son was born. They have a very popular buffet but TRY the menu items, they’re amazing! I get take out at least 2x a month. More than you can eat and worth 2 x what you’ll pay, eat for days!! We had: Moo Goo Gai Pan, Fried Boneless Chicken w/ Chinese Vegetables, Shrimp fried Rice, 6 egg rolls $38 w tax. Love this place and their people!! Thanks Yan!! The photos are what’s leftover after 2 people have already eaten. Enjoy!

The Chinese food is pretty standard , but with good variety. The salad bar is good too. Having a fresh shrimp cocktail and breaded shrimp, for all you can eat, is just great! Well worth the $10.99. They even have a nice takeout option where you can fill a takeout container with whatever you want from the buffet. The staff are friendly and hospitable as well. It's a great restaurant for what it's meant to be.
