Asian Buffet

My cousin and I decided to have a late lunch here, and the food selection was very diverse. The place accommodates a good number of people, and the staff were quick and efficient. The dishes truly tasted Asian and were great overall. I just wish the fruits were better.

I find this is a decent spot. The food is alright, but it somewhat reminds me of mall chinese food. The decor is nice but dated and the service us decent. The nice surprise was they have bubble tea, but they didnt have the Boba, they only had the lychee jelly.

Went here with my buddy last night after not going for years cause I dont drive, I grew up with this place, my mother took me when I was a child and it was called treasures of China, im 38 now, I have gone a few times in my adult life and it has been good and busy but it's gone downhill a lot and after last night it will be my final visit. Went on a Friday when you think it would be busy shortly after 6pm, it was a ghost town maybe 6 tables seated, lights off in half the restaurant as we entered the lobby area was being used for storage with tons of boxes and another bar area closed off with the lights off, went to the washroom first more chairs and junk piled in the hallway to the washroom the washroom was maybe a 3/10 for cleanliness as they obviously dont deep clean and focus on speed, a toilet was backed up. At this point I already saw the red flags saying to myself this might not be good. On to the food, I dont eat much seafood that might have saved me judging by reviews on here what I did have salt and pepper squid was hard and very rubbery shrimp still had all the poop in them I only ate 1 luckily other food just seemed old soggy and slimey, now my favorite part has always been the Mongolian grill where a guy cooks raw food and meats for you. It was okay but they were definitely using cheaper meat now that wasn't to good. So yeah im sure there is other things but these stood out the most. Unfortunately after a couple plates not full yet i just got sharp pains in my stomach instantly and had to go very slow and eventually just give up and stop because of the pain. My buddy reached out to me saying he has been sick all day. The only redeeming thing about this place was they were quick to clear plates away but i guess with so few guests its easier. It also felt like they were trying to save money where they could. I wish this place could go back in time to the treasures of China days yes it was more dark and gloomy but then again when you turn off half the lights here and treasures of China was always packed with lineups always, needed reservations I also loved the fishtanks with the giant fish around the restaurant, bring that back. Most of all get your food quality and cleanliness up,dont turn off the lights as it feels unwelcoming and clean up all the junk everywhere that's not appealing at all the place needs to feel welcoming and clean from the moment you walk in and not like your just surviving and hanging on by a thread. This place currently feels like it may only have a couple years left and also with competition like A+ down the road who is always busy maybe you can get some pointers and ideas from them. Good luck and I wish you the best in the future but I for one will have to close out this childhood memory of mine.

I went there two weeks ago for my friend graduation for the first time around 7pm and we closed the restaurant. The food was very good. I went 3 times to the table because it was so good. I do recommend it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Asian buffet in Calgary hands down! The variety is insane! With the fresh sushi rolls, crispy spring rolls, juicy black pepper beef, hot wonton soup that hits the spot, and the gyoza is bangin’! Desserts are on point too (those little mango puddings!). Always clean, staff are super friendly and quick to refill, and the price is unbeatable for all-you-can-eat. We come here every month and never leave disappointed. 10/10! 🥢🍱

Great Asian buffet! Huge variety of food — sushi, noodles, seafood, and many hot dishes. Everything tasted fresh and delicious, and the trays were constantly refilled. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was very nice. Perfect place to come with family or friends and try many different dishes. Definitely coming back again! 😊

First time here last night—everything was amazing. Shrimp crispy, beef tender, fresh flavors, quick service even at six. Gave it five stars… but today, March fourth, around eight PM, total letdown. Food came out cold—shrimp, beef, all of it. Dessert section half-empty, still charging full price. Beef way too salty, mushrooms dripping oil. One star now. Last visit—won’t be back. But if u want to come , come between 6 to 7 pm .. otherwise bad experience will happen like me ..

We love coming back to this restaurant, five star for the kind staff and service too!

We went on a Sunday it was not to busy. The food was whack not fresh not recommended to expensive better options.

What happened to the Asian Buffet? Did it get a new owner or new cooks? I used to stop here everytime I came through Calgary, but last night it was terrible. The food was bad and the bathrooms were disgusting. I ordered my usual avocado fruit milkshake with tapioca pearls, and even it tasted funny. Half of the dishes had no signs on them, and for someone with allergies, having to guess what things are is not fun. A lot of the pans were empty, with no signage as to what was supposed to be there, so I skipped over them, then saw other people had food I like, but I didn't get any, because there wasn't any when I went through. However, the food was so bad, I probably didn't miss it anyway. There were plates at only one of the buffet aisles, so you had to go searching for a plate, yet there were a ton of waiters/waitresses walking around. And it was the night of the seafood buffet, so I paid twice as much as I normally do for almost inedible seafood. The waiters/waitresses wouldn't leave me alone, which is better than no attention, but they kept trying to take my plate before I was done with it. The sushi bar has improved greatly, so that was a plus, but everything else was definitely not worth $50. There was no hand sanitizer in either dispenser at the buffet and only one soap dispenser and one paper towel dispenser worked in the bathroom so there was a line up to get soap and paper towels. The bathroom looked like it hadn't been seen by a staff member all day, even though it wasn't busy. The toilet paper was great, though, best I've ever seen in a restaurant, too bad a great majority of it was scattered all over the floor. The restaurant used to be full, but it wasn't last night and I can see why. I don't think I'll be going back there again.

Well I was surprised at the amount of selection in the Buffet for lunch. Salad bar, soup bar, sea food bar, sushi bar, desert and Ice cream bar. I found the interior just okay a little rundown, piles of boxes in the sight of some diners. Looked very clean around the buffet bars. Your typical Asian buffet from fried rice, noodles, ginger beef, chicken, egg rolls, Oysters in a half shell, veggies. There was also dim sum item, bbq pork buns, pork wrap, chicken feet etc... The food flavour was okay chicken feet, Oysters were yummy, to finished off I had a sesame seed ball with bean paste inside. Service was okay made sure our water was filled and plates taken away. Nothing really stood out for me there was no wow factor everything was your typical buffet. Great parking, but can see the lot filling up fast for the evening buffet. They do take reservations for the evening. I'll come back if I'm in the neighbourhood, I won't be going out of my way to come here.

Food is great, service is too. Steam tables could be set a touch hotter. It's a trade off though, the hotter the table the quicker it dries out the food. Great job, worth every penny! I'll be back soon!

The food is second rate, the service was appalling and we will never go back! $29.99 for a senior plate? Ridiculous!! The server asked our 4 year old granddaughter how old she was, but they tried to sneak a charge for the 9-11 age range into the bill. When my husband pointed it out, the snippy little thing argued and said "she looks 9 to me!"" One of the worst, most expensive lessons we've learned in a very long time!

Not good service Asked a 13 year old for pho to id, it smells bad and the bathroom are gross please do not go here for birthdays unless you carry photo id. Dirt and holes in walls, and it is a old building in general. Please don't come here with kids unless you want to have a bad time

Gave me food poisoning last night. It was filthy in there. So many staff walking around bored. Maybe they should clean.

Truly gone downhill Our post covid visit was truly a disappointment! At a Wed lunch time 12:15PM, the restaurant food was all quite cold including the Wanton soup., buffet slots were empty, and service was extremely poor. We were "pushed" out of the buffet line by staff, and hit by their carts....both without apology. We walked out, and will not return.

As you step inside the establishment the place looks very different than the typical "asian-style" buffet restaurant. The servers were young and friendly, and quickly to get us to our tables. Many people wrote reviews about the food being too salty or gave food poisoning, all the negatives, etc. In my experience the food was great, sure like all restaurants there was a few that were not up to my expectations but majority was good. Sushi bar was surprsingly tasty and the boba was also well made, the taste was good just the pearls stuck all together I am guessing from too much time in the pot, in summary my experience there went as is: place was clean, food and service was good, price was good, experience was good. Definitely would come back again.

Everything was very salty. Not much of a selection. Was responsibly priced but I would have driven a few blocks down to the other buffet and pay more rather than coming here again.

We went there as a group of about 27 today for lunch. Service was good. Large tables for groups. A full Buffet with lots to choose from, including some Dim Sum items. The evening menu apparently is a little different. Anyhow, I did not hear anyone complain about the food - everyone seemed pretty satisfied. Price was around $20/each. I am now organizing for a different group to go and give it as try. So yes, I recommend it.

FINGER NAIL IN MY FOOD! Now I know it's been a couple months since I've written a review but what can I say I've had a great summer and been super busy with work and enjoying life. Anyway, on to the review.. Been to Asian Buffet a bunch of times before and actually thought it was one of the better Chinese buffets you'll find in Calgary. Not anymore after my experience a couple weeks ago. We went there on the weekend with my entire family (about 100 of us) for my cousin's birthday party at lunch on a Saturday. Service there was the same as any other Chinese restaurant but at least they definitely keep the food coming. They refill often and that's nice so you can get a fresh batch of whatever during your meal, as long as you go during a typically busy time. Food was decent. I went for my second plate, after a few pieces of sushi and dim sum, and got the Mongolian grill. Felt a funny texture in my mouth and spat the whole thing out onto my napkin only to find a FINGER NAIL. I was instantly disgusted and totally felt sick to my stomach. I told the two managers, they were in the least understanding and even mentioned they wanted to do something for us because of our experience. I was asking them to do something for our group, But they were reluctant to offer even 5% off the bill as they said it was too big of a party to be compensating one person's experience. So instead, I received in the mail a $30 gift card to Starbucks for the poor experience we had. I could have easily spoiled the appetites of many that afternoon but respected the manager's wishes to not say anything. However, as a yelp elite, I felt obligated to share my experience with others so they hopefully don't experience what I did. I guess at least they didn't give us a gift card to go eat there again?! I am grateful they did try to do something about it though. I understand that this may be a rare occurrence but be fore-warned.. it HAS happened here..and to me, unfortunately. Ps - Sorry for the graphic photo but I'm not making this up!

This buffet, is your standard Asian food buffet. They had a very good spread of everything you'd expect to find at an Asian buffet, along side some more unique options. We were there for the lunch, so the spread wasn't as large as the dinner buffet, but other people have said it's pretty good.

Decent price Good service Food is ok They got few dimsum served which is good They got this steamed fish...its so good. Not impressed with sushi though. You can also order stir fry and put whatever toppings you want. Large variety of meal but quality is sub par

Me and my girlfriend went here today, I used to go when I was younger and remember it being so good so my gf was pretty hyped. It was so disappointing. The meat was all basically jelly, the noodles and rice tasted like nothing, the only good part was the mussels and shrimp but the shrimp wasn't cleaned out. My girlfriend was literally grossed out by the food, and honestly so was I and I am really not hard to please especially for a buffet. Before we left I asked to speak to someone, told the manager working that we really didn't enjoy anything. He offered to not charge us which was a relief, i apologized and he said maybe next time but we won't be going back. The staff is super nice, but the food sucks.

Pleasantly surprised with Asian Buffet. I came here out of desperation as I had dropped off my car in the area and needed both to eat and to burn two hours. I tried to hit up bluefin AYCE for what I knew was going to be a disappointing meal, but as it turns out they are closed for renos, so off I went trekking to Asian Buffet, which involved hiking across the entirety of McLeod. With this being an Asian buffet, the service is supposed to be crappy. Surprisingly I found the waitstaff to be relatively attentive at clearing plates and refilling water - nice. The Buffet selection was also pretty good. I found the sushi to be surprisingly good - good ratio of fish to rice and not at all dry. It was being restocked fairly regularly and was reasonably fresh. (Great selection of sushi too!) They also had some dim sum stuff, which was actually really good. The Shrimp Dumplings were particularly good, as they were actually filled with shrimp and didn't fall apart when you tried to pick them up. Other than that they had some pretty generic "chinese buffet" fare which was not too bad either. They also have a "mongolian grill", which I didn't try. Overall, for $18, it was really not bad and definitely exceeded my albeit low expectations. I would definitely come here again if the mood strikes.

Worse tasting Chinese food in town. The waitress was nice but the food was awful. Now I realize this is a buffet so I don't expect super high quality but as far as buffets go the quality was at the bottom of the barrel. Will never go back.

What a disappointment. Used to be quite good. Ate there yesterday for the first time since pre pandemic. Couldn't have been worse.

My husband and I used to live just down the street from here and stopped by a few times. Last night we came back for the first time in a couple of years. The staff were friendly and attentive, the buffet was well stocked. I didn't love the sushi (it was very dry) but I didn't expect it to be amazing. I was very disappointed to see no chicken balls since they are my favourite, and the steamed bbq pork buns were one thing that was not replenished while we were there. Overall the restaurant is decent for the price. There is a large variety of dishes (including lots of dessert) but I feel like it's all mediocre food... Nothing was done AMAZINGLY. I would come back but it would not be my first choice.

It's remarkable because of the wide variety of asian food found here. Not all of it was good but they did have some things that were OK. I would recommend the dim sum here and the mongolian grill at the back. The haw gow was decent and unlimited. They also had an OK ice cream selection. The rest was hit or miss. But they do have a wide variety of food to try for an inexpensive price. I wouldn't recommend this place for good asian food but if you want to be able to sample a variety of asian cuisine in one sitting this place is probably the place to do it in Calgary.

It had been a long time since I ate here, back in the Treasures of China days. As a previous reviewer stated, even then it was passable as okay and would offer one dish that was edible. Not only will it be a long time until I eat here again, it will never happen again!!! The food was Luke warm at best, the wonton soup (which is a no brainer - should be a no brainer) was off, the butter for the crab legs was burnt and was not changed even though I mentioned it to staff. As mentioned by previous review,, shrimp still had their poop chutes intact. Okay, so the chicken wings were edible, but the pocket of hot grease I got sprayed with when biting into it hindered me eating more. My wife and daughter, whose birthday it was, didn't get one bite of anything that they didn't regret, if not immediately, within 20 minutes of reaching home. I cannot in any way shape or form, suggest this restaurant for any reason. Food - sub sub par Service - our waiter was okay, forgot water glass to replace dirty one. Cashier had an excuse for every dish I mentioned as being sub par.

Buffets that serve quasi-Asian food, mixed with a sprinkle of deep fried Western favourites are not hard to find. Finding a quality buffet at a decent price, however, isn't always an easy task. Apparently I found a gem when my friend brought me to Asian Buffet-- It wasn't even listed on Yelp Everyone else's loss is my gain as I see it because this place is definitely worth the money. It is a buffet, so don't expect five star dining, but you can go in expecting some decent food. On top of the normal foods you would find at an Asian buffet (chicken balls, sweet + sour pork, fried rice etc.) they also have an entire section of the buffet dedicated to more traditional Asian fare. The price of the buffet is $12.99, which is good for a normal buffet let alone one that offers everything Asian Buffet does. The buffet is extensive, the pop is bottomless, alcoholic drinks are a good price and they also have nonalcoholic cocktails for those looking to be adventurous but stay away from the booze. It is a big place and finding a seat doesn't seem like it would be an issue. There is only one TV in the dining room, which is fine, but when I was there they only had bowling on which I still find slightly odd. This place was also open on Christmas Day, so for those who aren't big on the holiday season, this is an option for you.

No... Just No.. i must have been there when there was an off day because myself and a few others could not finish what we had. Im not into the sea food part, maybe that was good but for the western Chinese food like ginger beef ( soggy, bland clumpy) the fried rice ( not cooked well and still had hard bits) the S&S pork ( just no) the won ton soup ( no flavor, just water) the dumplings ( sort of OK when the fresh ones came out) The grill was OK but not worth it in total , I tried and wont try again..

If you are into disorganized pre-meal experiences, don't miss out your chance at Asian Buffet. The hostess station was sheer chaos. Crazy busy on a Friday night. We waited the 30 minutes. If it wasn't for the great swrvice of our waitress, this would have been a solid 1 by 5, but .... Our waitress was there to clear plates and top off non-stop Coke prontissimo. For her efforts I would average the service out at a 3 by 5. The buffet was a madhouse. Food was not being replenished very quickly and at one point 3 of 4 plate stations were completely empty. For the most part, however, the food was not bad. I really enjoyed the crab legs, but so did everyone else since there wasn't any left most of the time. Overall I would rate the food a 3 by 5. However, I am taking a solid 2 points off for cleanliness and food service standards: 1) I actually saw the guy who was filling up the dessert dishes SNEEZE on his hand then directly place 50+ plates on the dispenser without washing his hands or using the hand sani dispenser 3 feet away. 2) I later saw this same staff member sweeping in the mens room and NOT washing his hands when he left. Back to plate dodo, I mean duty. 3) Every one of the bins and racks for carrying dishes and glasses were FILTHY dirty. I could have sworn that one of the plate bins had a label that was grey with mold (but could have just been the lighting ). Anyhow. You have been warned.

Stopped in here for the lunch buffet. They offer both Chinese and Dim Sum in the buffet. Upon first glance the selection is massive, however the quality of the food was far below any chinese food standard. The chicken balls were all dough, the pork did NOT taste like a typical pork dish from any other chinese place, and the beef was also questionable. The vegetables, rice, and noodles were tasty, and they had a massive selection of sweets. I would not go back to this buffet place, as the food made me feel sick afterwards.

We went there for dinner lately with my family and friends. The hostess said we will be charged 10% for having a large group because of the additional service (moving the chairs and tables maybe?) and stuff. But she added she can rip that 10% off if we were seated apart...... Duh? Where's the logic in that? Seated at the same table or apart doesn't make any difference! Anyway, we were already there, starving, so wth and we thought we'd be seated close to each other, because we went there as a group.. But to our dismay, our tables were all around the place! With tables close to each other empty! Our family was seated at the far end where the chairs were piled up and we felt uncomfortable so we asked the hostess if we could be transferred to a different table. Guess what? The hostess was hesitant and said they have to bring back the 10%!!! We asked for the manager but she even didn't talk to us (i wonder if she even speaks english) and was talking in chinese! Spell rude! Anyway, we still insisted on being transferred and the hostess eventually agreed. They were also running out of food that time that the table next to us had to tell one of the servers to pls refill it because we paid for it! So disappointed that our fun night had to end that way! Never will we ever go back to this restaurant again! Ever!!

On the decline.... I used to come here on occasion when it was still called "Treasures of China." It was never fantastic but it was decent and a good place to go when dining with others who all like different things. My most recent experience here will not have me returning. The food was really pretty awful. They had peel and eat shrimp but none of the shrimp were de-veined and had thick, gritty veins (ie- digestive tracts!) running along the back of them. And believe it or not, the shrimp were pretty much the most edible thing they had. The sushi was worse than grocery store sushi -- dry and lukewarm. All the stir fried dishes were barely hot and the utensils used to serve them were sticky and unclean. Many items were mislabeled, if they had a label at all. I also tried a piece of fried white fish and it was awful. I don't even know what kind of fish it was, but it tasted funky and not good at all. I'm generally not a picky eater and can usually find *something* at a restaurant that is palatable. But this place really did not have anything that I would consider paying for again. Save your money and your time. You're better off Bonzai or Empress Buffet which are just a few blocks south, right on MacLeod Tr.

I'm sure the people who own this store are trying to keep customer's pleased, but our experience with there food was very unpleasant. Food wasn't fresh and tasted bad..Not to mention they forgot the chicken fried rice with our order. Judging by the horrible Google and Yelp reviews.. the owner has some serious restructuring to do if they want to keep customers business in Calgary..I and my family won't be repeat customers that's for sure but maybe through some serious quality control they can turn things around!

Asian Buffet, the title sums it all up perfectly. Mediocre food, served semi-warm awaits everyone. I do have to congratulate them on the wide variety of food, but at times like this I wonder, is the quantity worth the sacrifice of quality? Amazing company made it the most enjoyable for me, if you're looking for a traditional Asian buffet experience you will find that here. If you wish for quality, order a'la carte elsewhere.

This was a decent restaurant at one time, however it is no longer. We went here with a party of 6 as it was my Mother's birthday party. We arrived at 8:30pm and the restaurant closed at 10:00. At 8:30 we went to the buffet and it was immediate apparent that even though we paid full price 28.00 per plate they had definitely stopped adding to the Buffet long before then. We made do for the "first round" and found food to eat however a half hour later it was clear that they were not even trying. Rice was no longer out, Crab legs were no longer there, peel and eat shrimp no longer stocked. They had served French fries however the little that was left in the bin looked like the fries you find in the Mcdonald's bag the next day. Suffice it to say that there was nowhere near the quality or quantity or choice that one would expect for almost $30. I complained to the manager which was a trick and he started asking me which of the missing or old items I wanted refreshed, to the six of us. I told him we weren't going around to pick the food we might want eat, but instead I negotiated a 10.00 discount per plate, which he agreed to and he apologized for the situation. At the end of the meal they presented the bill, they had only given a $10 discount, I took it up to the cashier who told me that was a ridiculous request and the manager I had spoken to had left the restaurant. I told her to phone him. He said that it was a misunderstanding. I left the amount for 18.00 per plate as agreed and I will never go back. I work hard for my money and the restaurant has no problem taking the max amount, but at the same time refused to offer decent fair.

I went here because it was my friend's birthday and he really likes it. The good thing is they tell you which dishes have MSG and which ones don't. It's a pretty standard Chinese buffet. It's nothing special but it sure is filling. It would've gotten 3 stars however they stiffed us when paying. The gratuity was already included but they charged us extra anyways. Also, when we were paying our bills they overcharged one of our guests. Greed makes the world go round... or this Asian Buffet go round.

I have been going to Asian Buffet (formally known as Treasures of China) for years. The quality of food has always been a little bit all over the place. It's never been horrible, but some days are better than others. Their food trays are usually stacked nice and high and they have quite the excellent assortment of foods which means you will probably find something that you like. I'm particularly fond of their large dessert selection, yum sweets! The location is pretty ok, but their building is huge so it works for them and pretty much guarantees you'll get a seat. Because they focus on being a buffet the service is also pretty good in regards to having plates cleared away without building up. Water is also topped off frequently which is perfect because I always get thirsty at these places (MSG perhaps? Or just regular dehydration? Who knows!). It's not the greatest, but if you're hungry enough to eat three servings, and have a craving for some ok Asian food, it's worth checking out.

Was here yesterday and the place was not very busy but that is to be expected coming out of the pandemic. The buffet wasn't completely full and the dishes were getting stale because of the lack of customers. Once the food was refreshed it was better. The poor shrimp which I usually love were sitting on ice but were drying out on top. Not very appetizing at all. The usual Asian fair was just ok. Most was over breaded and hard to find the protein that was inside. No dry ribs and the chicken wings are heavily breaded and deep fried as well. Some of the steamed dumplings were good. The beef and broccoli was tasty. The chicken dish was weird tasting. The grill wasn't open but when I asked about it at the end of my meal she said yes it was open but you had to tell them what you wanted and they would have cooked it in the kitchen. Too bad I wasn't told that coming into the restaurant. Hopefully with more customers coming into the restaurant the food will get better and with more variety. Reminds me of the low quality, American/Asian Chinese food I used to eat when I was a kid. This meal could have been so much better.

Your typical Asian buffet restaurant! The service is very good! The food is mediocre but I went near the end of the lunch buffet so things probably weren't that fresh! But definitely worth the price especially for lunch!

We go there for the grill , bbq ribs/skewers and salmon Sashimi, sushi had many variety but sometimes do not look fresh.

A bland, greasy, homogeneous mess. Couldn't stomach more than a few bites before pushing my plate aside. Never again, Asian Buffet. NEVER AGAIN!

I LOVE buffets and this one was amazing! they have a nice selection of Asian and Canadian food but their Mongolian selection is the best to me. you can have everything grill without MSG. Lots of dessert and maple walnut ice cream yum! . I will give 5 star to them because the service was very nice too.

Food was cold and old. Waitress said they serve the same food from lunch buffet in the supper buffet. Not worth the money or time

If you want to go to an Buffet, this is the place in Calgary. The food is fairly good and judging from the line up on Friday and Saturday nights it is a popular place. Try this place on a weekday as usually you can get seated right away. Not the healthiest eating here, but what they do, they do well. For those that see a buffet as a challenge, not fine dining. You won't be disappointed.

My husband and I came here the other day. The service was good but a lot was missing in the buffet. I found that a lot of the good was just okay. There was only one dish i found was really yummy and it was a spicy one. I cant remember everything in it but it was good mixed with rice. I think they have a lot of potential but need to either hire new cooks or have them trained better. You get a lot for what you pay, not expensive.

Oh my! Asian Buffet (formerly known as treasures of china) used to be a place after my heart. A virtual dream for those that love to eat, but don't let the endless bounty fool you. The last time I went hear I learned my lesson for the last time. Quantity over quality does not a good meal make! Not much to say other than A LOT of the food here (the last time I went) was borderline edible all kinds of stuff from pizza to crab legs to jello to self serve ice cream, peking duck and a whole lot more. I should mention that some of the items are pretty decent (considering the amount of dishes produced) but some are just plain nasty! I remember back in the day I kind of forced one of my buddies to come with the gang. He was hesitant to say the least but I assured him that a lot of the items were pretty decent (ginger beef, peking duck, beef with broccoli ect) So we all went and pigged out. During the meal he seemed fine and was like "oh yeah! This place is pretty good!" a couple of weeks later though I found out through another friend he had a stomach ache for days and was tossing and turning all night because of it. He didnt tell me because he didn't want to hurt my feelings! hahaha.He said it was the ceasar salad. I said "what the heck is he doing getting a ceasar salad at a place called Treasures of china???"" Poor guy! My bad taste had claimed a victim! I couldnt help but feel partially responsible. The last time I came I also dragged my cousin, all I remember is him staring down at his plate full of partially eaten items and looking very disappointed. He barley even ate anything.I felt so bad for getting him to come. It was then I knew this was the last time I would ever come here! Another victim claimed! So thats my story of Asian buffet. To finish my review I have to say that it was kind of a hit and miss, sometimes SOME of the food was actually prepared well but other times it was different or seemed recycled from previous nights food! what was I thinking back then?? Who knows what its like now! Maybe they are doing things better? Maybe worse?. I just know that one too many stomach aches and seeing my friends suffer told me it was time to say goodbye! Adios TC! You defeated my stomach one to many times...

I have been to this restaurant many times over the last 15 years or so and I just went back yesterday with my daughter and I felt really disappointed because for me this used to be the best Chinese buffet in Calgary, but I guess things change... Still lots of options compared to other smaller joints, but some of the food didn't look so fresh... veggies, salads, sushi, etc. Dim sum items looked ok though, and it was nice to see that they're adding some more items here. I was sad to see prices are getting expensive while the quality of the food is decreasing. I still like it and I know they try, but I guess they should try harder. Not sure I want to go back there...

Wow, can't believe the negative reviews here! It's a very large buffet and has something for everyone. I've been to many of these as everyone has but their food quality is consistent and they change it often, not like others who pick out the old bits, give it a stir and dump the new "crap" on top. They've never been shut down due to health issues as many Calgary establishments have so if you want bang for the buck, give it a try. I can't speak for the "battered food" but the rest is excellent...give it a go!

Has been very hit and miss over the years, with a few steady staples like hot and sour soup and mongoli grill always there. Went there right before it closed last week - good God, the way they clean is DISGUSTING. We saw a woman pull up a food tray and set it aside to reach into the steam water that keeps all the food hot in order to dip her cloth to wipe down the ice cream coolers and the counter around the desserts. How often does that water get changed?? Slightly later a crew came around and started using some pretty grimy water to wipe down the insides if the buffet tops - with the open food still in baskets underneath, with their cleaning swill water dripping on the open baskets of food. Ew. I don't think anything which they 'cleaned' did anything other than spread around bacteria.

I don't see why there are so many negative reviews,the dinner is great, the prices are incredible! Don't go for lunch, they won't have as many options. The waiting time is usually under 15 mins, the longest I've been to was slightly over 30 mins, and that was around Chinese New Year. Mongolian Grill is nice, baby corn and steaks are must try, and grilled pineapple can be rather delicious. They have canadian snow crab, and that's an incredibly delicious option. You can eat as much as you want and you'll enjoy the whole meal. They have a variety of desert and an ice cream bar too. Chicken wings are nice, stir fry is good. You simply have to go there.

Like many have said before, this is a standard Chinese Buffet. The food is entirely adequate. The atmosphere is hectic. Still, this is a place where I can have sushi and my wife can have roast beef. It does the job.

It's a buffet. There's a decent selection of food and a good variety so even the pickiest of palates will find something that will fill them up. There are items such as crab and shrimp but you know it will be from pre-frozen stuff so don't expect much in terms of freshness & flavour. They listed roast beef as a special but it was basically enormous chunks of beef sitting in gravy so my guess is that it was leftover something and then dumped into the leftover gravy and put out on the buffet table. Service was good and the waiter was very polite and when asked about the seniors discount as there was one of us over 60 and another not quite 60 corrected our bill right away and even gave us the 2nd seniors discount even though the discount only applies to those 60 & up. Asian Buffet is tucked away in the corner of the mall so cannot be seen off Macleod Trail. There is ample parking and no wait at all for a table.

This is by far the most disgusting place you could ever eat at. my husband and I took our 3 children to eat there not only the food being at room temperature but we watched them bring out hot food my husband went up and grab a hot plate of food only to find a very long corse hair in the food... They laughed at us and told my husband not to say anything and that we shouldn't complain we are getting a free meal.... But came to my table with the bill.... Like hell I would ever eat here again environmental health will sure to be called on Tuesday This happened sept 7,2015 labour day Just so you all know

ZERO customer service skills .. they will try to cheat you out of a few extra dollars if they can! Be careful! .. they decided they wanted to raise the price of the buffet up a couple of dollars temporarily during the "Christmas season" .. what a crock of sh*t! My dad used to be a regular here but he will never return because of the way they treat their loyal customers! They should not over charge him.. especially since he is a senior citizen! Too bad.. they are only hurting themselves as a business :)
