The food is sub-par: Excessive use of MSG and some are not fresh.
I came to eat there with my cousin who lives quite nearby and I was
shocked to see that some of the food are from the night before.
You can taste the difference and see that the vegetables have
that distinct look, more wrinkly than the fresh ones. Basically
they only reheat them and serve them again to customers. The staff
are average for a buffet restaurant, slow in refilling ice tea
and taking away the dirty plates. Perhaps because they're too
busy eating themselves, I happened to see two of them eating and
chatting in their waiter station while I was grabbing the food
from the buffet table. This is one of the worst chinese restaurants
I've ever been to. I'd suggest everyone to avoid this place and
find a better place to eat.

Quality of the food is inconsistent. If everything is good, it's
good. But sometimes they really mess things up. I've been there
a couple of times with my family and we used to order almost the
same food, until we stop going there due to this inconsistency
problem. One time, one of the dishes is way too salty. I complained
this to the waiter who can barely speak english (From where did
they hire these guys anyway?) and it took them another 30 minutes
to replace it. By which time we have already lost our appetite.
Another time, the tofu in the dishes has already expired. Regardless
to say, 2 bad experiences are enough to make us never again go there.

A bit expensive, but where can we find a cheap good quality Japanese
restaurant?? In any case, it's money well spent. Their selection
of sushi is quite enormous and the food quality and freshness
are first class. They have one of the best unagi I've ever had.
The staff are a delight to deal with. As the reviewer before me
has already told you, it has no sign, which I find a bit strange.
No big deal, it's the food that matters.

This is to comment on the quality of the food in the menu. I happened
to see buffet tables when I went there so I assume they also serve
buffet but I can't comment since I didn't have it. Everything
was good and the waitress was quite helpful and responsive to
our needs. Their fried duck with special sauce is superb. One
of the place to eat affordably.

One of the 'more' expensive restaurants that I've ever been to.
Nice atmosphere, and the restaurant itself on upper level Arboretum
blvd. But the food doesn't reflect all the good things I've said
before. They should do better than that and improve the efficiency
and courtesy of the staff. For the amount of money this place charges,
I'd rather eat somewhere else.

Very nice atmosphere, not to mention its strategic location
in the downtown. I wholeheartedly agree with the previous reviewer.
While this restaurant is pricey, the food is excellent and the
staff are very courteous. So I have nothing to complain about.
One of the best Chinese restaurant in Austin.

Unusual, but welcomed, approach of a relatively new (2 year?)Chinese
fast food establishment. Many can be improved here and there,
but it looks quite efficient. Food is quite good considering
it's basically a fast food.
