What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ Great Chow is one of those places I ended up at almost by accident, and I’m glad I did. The moment I walked in, it had that old-school neighborhood Chinese takeout vibe—nothing fancy, just real, honest food. I ordered the General Tso’s chicken and it came out hot, crispy, and packed with flavor. The portions were bigger than I expected, which always feels like a win. Sitting there with that simple but satisfying meal, I realized this is the kind of spot locals probably keep coming back to for years. ”
“ Great Chow buffet is a good bargain place for variety dishes. It’s no frills and no sushi (go figure. Better to dine in as I have many times. Takeout is not worth it— way too many add-on prices. These two plates cost $26. We just popped in for some quick takeout noodles. But, the buffet noodle tray was empty so we got noodles at the Hibachi station instead with shrimp. The noodles were good! However the value to price is not so great; thus the 3 stars. ”
“ I had a decent experience at this establishment. The staff is friendly, and they have lots of options, but the price is a lot for someone who can’t eat a lot in one sitting. The staff does seemingly ‘watch’ their guests like hawks while we’re eating our meals, which is weird. The food is definitely one of the better buffets that I’ve went too, but $40 for two people is excessive. It’s better for someone who has a larger appetite. ”
“ This was my first visit, and I was pleasantly surprised. The place is huge on the inside. The buffet bars had a variety of foods from fried chicken to pasta selections along with Chinese food options. I really liked the hibachi bar. You are able to select your protein and vegetables and then move to the grill where your food is cooked for you. There is also a dessert bar and fruit bar. The service was great, and the waitress was efficient ”
