Buffet King

We had been going to their competitor at Hamilton place for several years, but the quality there massively declined. My son really wanted Chinese buffet and when looking up what was available locally, buffet King popped up in Hixson. It's a little bit further drive than normal for us but we decided to give it a go since we did not want to go back to FS again. Boy am I glad we did! The atmosphere is definitely not posh like the other restaurant, but when I'm going to get Chinese food at a buffet that's not what I'm looking for. The food was fantastic, the selection great, and the wait staff really made our visit wonderful. I would describe the atmosphere as a hometown restaurant where everybody knows each other. I really enjoyed that. They have the absolute coldest soft serve I have ever gotten. The stuff did not melt in the cone the entire time any of us were eating it. And of course it becomes instant brain freeze if you eat too much at a time! The prices were reasonable given the quantity and quality of food that you get. We will definitely make this be our norm Chinese buffet in the future. Have a look at my picture of the menu board, as it has current pricing as of this review.

Everything about this location is absolutely amazing! I had my Birthday lunch here with my wife yesterday! We eat at several different places like this pretty often, I have a special diet so finding food out and about at a decent price can be a challenge to say the least. Everything about this location is great though, every employee that you connect eye contact with smiles right back and treats you my great respect! The FOOD is 200% better than any Buffet in Tennessee, hands down!!! Hope this helps someone!

We have been eating at Buffet King ever since they opened. It was great until recently. Fried Chicken cold, vegetables cold, reheated rice, Sushi was awful. Food prices went way up…Food quality went way down. We will be looking for another Oriental Restaurant.

The food is really good, as are the prices. The first time we came was on a Saturday afternoon and the food and atmosphere was wonderful. The last time we came was on a Tuesday afternoon and the food could have been hotter, the hostess/cashier was very rude and I felt like I was in a hospital cafeteria, as all of the patrons were coughing, sniffling, using walkers, canes and wheelchairs. The only exception to that was the drug addict family beside us who had on their pajamas. We will eat here again, but hope for better dining partners.

I have eaten here since the day they opened in the late 90's, and the food is always good and the variety excellent. Consistently the best food in town
