BIG BUDDHA RESTAURANT REVIEWS

We absolutely love Big Buddha! Their Orange Peel Chicken is hands-down the best we've ever tasted—perfectly crispy, flavorful, and delicious every single time. While you might think it's comparable to other local restaurants, it's genuinely not. Big Buddha is truly in a league of its own, consistently surpassing our expectations with every order. Yesterday, I mistakenly ordered the lunch special without realizing it differed from our usual dinner portion. The staff was exceptionally understanding and helpful, resolving my error graciously. This outstanding service, coupled with phenomenal food quality, keeps us coming back regularly for take-out. Thank you, Big Buddha—you have customers for life! Highly recommend to anyone craving top-notch Chinese cuisine! (which is almost impossible in Arizona.

Very good food with large portions! The only disappointment was the House Chicken - General Tsos Chicken. General Tsos is a tough dish because every restaurant does it very differently, but this one was just too peppery and in a bland brown sauce. That said, the spring roll, soups, crab wontons, and the sweet and sour chicken were delicious. We would definitely return for those! Out waiter was also quick and welcoming. We had a great experience.

This place is amazing. My husband and I come about twice a week, always trying something different. Food is amazing.

CHINA BUFFET REVIEWS

What a wide variety of tasty treats, including a sushi bar, but also good sweet and sour soup, best egg foo young I've had in ages, chicken wings, plenty of vegetable dishes like string beans and broccoli (both cooked perfectly so still a nice bright green) CA rolls, shrimp, egg rolls, octopus, seaweed salad, and way too much other stuff and none of it disappointed me, although I wish all of it could have been warmer. Vegetarians could have plenty to satisfy them and I saw kids at one of the tables happily enjoying pizza. Something for everyone here and the reasonable lunch prices make it affordable too. Attentive server kept my water filled and took my emptied dishes away. Although there isn't much of an atmosphere, it's fine for an economical buffet and it was clean with staff regularly stirring up the buffet items, bringing fresh food out, and wiping the drips. I'll be back!.

Outstanding choices dishes to choose from. Took Mom to this China buffet and she actually said she liked it and would go there again!That's a KUDOS for China Buffet!.

The food was delicious. Every chicken and shrimp dish was amazing. If you like shrimp, well, this is definitely the place to satisfy your craving. Beef dishes were good, too. We are definitely coming back! However, Atmosphere could use an upgrade.
