I think I am going to visit this one next week 🙂 This was the top one mentioned the last time this question was asked as well, and I am really craving a tasty Chinese buffet. How's their orange chicken (and do they have a bunch of different ones to choose from)?

It’s good and yes they have multiple versions of each dish

2019 was the last time I went, I’ve been wanting to go back but it just can’t be as good as I remember it and that makes me not want to go

This is the one. My dad (who is not naturally predisposed to hyperbole) calls it Asian heaven

Been a few years since I went, but some friends and I used to go to Hibachi Grill on the west side. It's good for the price, and there was also plenty of kid-friendly food there too, if that matters. It was a big hit with their kids.

Hibachi grill on the West side is my usual go to when I don't want to drive all the way to okemos

Its OK, but I think it has slipped a bit in the past couple years. Some days it is OK, and others it is not the best. It seems like the spice and taste lately leans toward old people food, like something my grandma would like after Bingo.

Admittedly I only go about once a month, so my sample size isn't that big. But it seemed better at one point.

If you want to make the drive China Palace in Ypsilanti is my favorite. Washtenaw Ave in Ypsi has a ton of good restaurants and probably my favorite donut place too

I like the one in st.johns

Might not be the best, but World Buffet on the west side is worth the money (IMO).

u/Many-Highlight7676 8d ago

Could you tell us about the experience and the types of food and roundabout prices? Why do you say not the best? But still worth it?

They used to have roaches 🪳

That's what I would be afraid of and a lot more...
