China Buffet
Columbus, OH
Good triangle goons and buttery garlic toast, but not-good fried rice, a 'chewed up seafood' mystery, a brown-tasting cake and rubbery food. About 2.2 stars, no pizza.

What he said
“Does the China Buffet deserve 2.5 stars? I'm gonna say probably not. It probably deserves a lower score. I give it about 2.2 stars.”
“The triangle crab rangoons is where it's at, dog. That's what I'm talking about. There's like some kind of science behind it where the triangle ones are always better.”
“Good goons. There's some good goons in there. And no fucking pizza.”
“Did someone take a meatball and just shove a shrimp in there?”
“That tastes like nothing I've ever tasted before in my life. Like spicy, chewed up seafood.”
“It's actually really good garlic toast. They buttered the shit out Of that.”
