Love the delivery!

We regularly order delivery from here- the food is great, the portions are good sized, the prices are resonable and it's delivered in less than 45 mintes every time!

good food
Reviewer: mai

I had their fried rice carried out. Food was plenty for 2 persons, the food also tasted pretty good. Since i ordered fired rice, i got my food in less than 5 minutes. The lady who took my order was also very nice.

Good Stuff
Reviewer: Bill

Good food. Chef Joe is great cook. Ching Yu is nice and friendly and Margarito the server is awesome. Have had the buffet there several times. Pretty good when you get it early. Nicely remodeled place with bright atmosphere.

cannot get your order right!!
Reviewer: Natalie
from Santa Barbara, CA
The food was good, but the service was just terrible!! I ordered delivery through restaurant connection, and first off, they charged me for the entire order but only delivered a fraction of it. Thankfully I caught it before their delivery guy left! THEN, when they came back to give me the rest of my food (a good half an hour later), they gave me THE WRONG STUFF! They didn't offer any kind of compensation either!

Long time customer
Reviewer: Ted
from Santa Barbara, CA
The hot and sour soup is delicious and can be prepared to order. Margarito the waiter is indeed fantastic, and the management is very friendly. The entrees are good but not great, and the kids really enjoy the buffet. The recent remodel was a definite upgrade.

Dark, dreary and dingy... Bland, boring food and I'm bloated
Reviewer: Mike
from Santa Barbara, CA
Not a good experience for us. The food just wasn't good. Chewy, grisly and poorly prepared. It was bland with too much salt trying to compensate for that fact. Sparse use of ingredients that were not fresh. Not a lot of warmth coming from the servers and not a lot of love coming from this kitchen. It is a sad sack of a restaurant. The place is really in need of some sprucing up.

Rushed Out!
Reviewer: Mary
from Santa Barbara, CA
We eat here regularly but lately we haven't been - Margarito the waiter who has been there since the last owners is awesome. Whenever we go i always feel like we are being rushed. Once you order drinks they bring you the check and sometimes it's just 3 of us and they apply the gratuity on the check - a little odd - This offends me as i feel like they think we are not going to tip. I believe it's prices have gone up but customer service is still crapy (waiters are always on it - but management sucks).

Not Great but Decent, Buffet looked good
Reviewer: Glenn
from Buellton
My takeout experience was not good with the food I had. The Buffet though looked like a great deal and with the price of one dinner entree you could basically get a dinner buffet. They had lots of shrimp along with fried chicken so it looked like it was worth it. Also with the lunch buffet it looks like they let you box up your last plate. Food wait was kind of long.

Good food, good service for take-out
Reviewer: Andrea
from Santa Barbara, CA
I've never dined-in but have gotten take-out many times. The food is always delicious and a good deal... plus, the salt and pepper wings are the best wings I've ever eaten. The order is usually ready in 10-15mins and pick-up is quick and pleasant.

Hit and Miss
Reviewer: Dennis
from Santa Barbara, CA
I have eaten here often and the only problem with the buffet is that it is a hit and miss. Sometimes it is great and other times...
The last time I was there with 4 friends they added in the 18% tip. I would have tipped more but I was offended that they would add the tip in and then I almost tipped on top of it.
I'm not sure what to tip at a buffet where I serve myself. I have been here in the past and gave the waiter a $20.00 tip when it was just me eating. There have been times that I left $3.00 on the table since I sat down, told the waiter that I wanted the buffet and he brought me water and my check before I could even open up my napkin and I never saw him again.
Will I go back? Yes. On the good nights you can't beat it.

Curry Won Tons!
Reviewer: Daryl
from Santa Barbara, CA
The curry won ton appetizers alone are worth going back for. Their kung pao chicken is better than most, too. I'll definitely keep going back.
