Asian Buffet

Good food and nice place.

I have been going to this eatery for 5 yrs now. It was really good at first when it was called The Bamboo then it was sold and it was just not the same. Now, it was sold again when it became Five Star Chinese Buffet. Now, it is better, pretty much like it was a few yrs ago plus they have the extra food items at the back on week nights that they only use to have on the weekends. It's a good place to eat. If you ate there in the past and liked it I think you will like it again.

Excellent

Great Service Delicious Food Fair Pricing

We were greeted when we walked in and they wanted to seat us right smack in the middle of the restaurant. The place was not full, so we asked to sit on a different table that was available. The table just needed to be wiped clean, which I didn't think was a big deal. But apparently it was and the lady seating us asked what was wrong with the table in the corner which was clean. I said that we preferred this table, and didn't think it should be a problem. She made it clear she was not happy with that. We ordered 2 glasses of wine, had to wait forever for that. The food was good, no complains about that part. I started out with crab legs. Eating them is messy, since you use your fingers, asked for extra napkins, had hoped since they saw me working with them, they would themselves give me more napkins than the one supplied. Everything was an effort for this woman serving us. Asked for a second glass of wine, again waited forever for it. At the end she came with the bill, without giving us a hot serviette, which is normally supplied. When asked, with God's grace she gave them to us, but cold from the fridge??? I am sorry to say that I didn't leave one cent tip, which is very unusual for us to do. But a good tip comes by getting good service. Sorry Bamboo, Woodstock, you need to work on your manners and kindness to your customers.

Besides being greeted promptly and seated, this...

Besides being greeted promptly and seated, this whole dining experience was horrible and my husband and I will never be back. We both chose items from the bffet but i quickly noticed that the food had been sitting out for a long time. The mashed potatoes were crusty, all fried items were rock-hard, all of the shrimp were not deveined or cleaned, and there was hair on the garlic bread. we tried to choose other items but between the revolting food and the televisions featuring a program about insects and spiders, we ost our appetites. The server removed our full plates from the table and shortly after they brought a 45 dollar bill for two buffets and one pop. I explained the situation and that we were unsatisfied and had not eaten more than one plate each. We offered to pay for one buffet but definately not two. She said that no one else had complained that day and it wasn't her fault that hair was in the food, and that shrimp are supposed to come with the vein in them. so she wasn't going to do anything. We ended up paying for it because they wouldn't compromise in any way.

This is a pretty good Chinese buffet restaurant...

This is a pretty good Chinese buffet restaurant. It is a busy place, so service can be somewhat inconsistent, but there is a good variety of food, and quality is very good.
