    Many Chinese classics with some western entrees and sides (think garlic bread, fries, and cheese pithrown in for good measure.  Pretty good food when you consider the "wow" factor that is their competitive pricing.  Leave full with plenty of money to spare.  Extensive collection of Norman Rockwell posters on the walls add to the charm and provide a fun contrast to the energetic feeding frenzy atmosphere.  Nice place.

    For a buffet that's 12 bucks this is awesome. Clean well cooked food. Skip the sushi. It's just rice.

    I am not a significant buffet fan. It all just is too much for me. But from time to time someone wants to go and I tag right along. United had pretty typical food items. They had a pretty big range, probably more stations than others but I dont remember seeing an ice cream maker. The food, hot and cold, was good. The service was attentive and the price was decent. I work in the area and if someone invited me again I would be down.

    Excellent selection. Sushi was really good. Really enjoyed it. Everything else was very good. A great value. Everything was hot and they kept up on keeping everything filled.  Will definitely go again.

    Food was good, nothing to write home about. All the different chicken dishes they had were good. The ribs were horrible. The waiters pick up your empty plates right away. They don't ask to fill your drinks though. The ice cream was real good. I would go back again.

    2nd visit was horrible. Food was cold and stale. My daughter had a upset stomach afterward. They didn't take plates away never asked if you want drink refills. To top it off when the bill came I tipped them 3 dollars which wasn't to the waitress's liking. She told me the price of the bill and pointed to the tip. I had no clue what she was trying to say and she said something Chinese to the other waitress and walked away in a fit. On the way out she came up to me and gave me a evil eye. If I wasn't the Christian man I would of told her off. But needless to say I won't be returning here any longer. Would give them a 0 star if possible. I tip very well to the service I receive believe me.
