A Baton Rouge landmark since 1979, Hunan’s annual Chinese New Year banquets and long-running community ties make it culturally essential. Profiled by 225 Magazine, it’s where many locals first explored classic banquet dishes.

I thoroughly enjoyed the food! Everything was cooked to perfection and I have to say the customer service is amazing! I opted to bring the buffet home instead of dining in. They have a wide selection and I just couldn't decide on what to choose. I had many questions about the menu. Over the phone, the staff member took my order and was very patient and answered all of my questions while helping me make a great selection. I was very satisfied and full afterwards. Thank you so much Hunan's Buffet. I will certainly be coming back! 🥰

I throughly enjoyed my entire experience. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful 😋 The buffet is set up to accommodate small or big groups! I ordered the seafood combination and it was large portioned and delicious 😋 Come over here for some delicious food!

Solid choice. Think about how everywhere else wants at least $10 for a combo.. I came here mostly because of their dinner buffet, since it has crawfish. For $15.99, you really can’t beat that. If you want a quiet experience, come here. They just renovated & the food is good. Buffet is small but has a good bit of choices. PS the sauces are alongside the salad bar. Food always comes out hot as a result. There was always an employee stirring the food to make sure it stayed hot.. wiping it down. I love their attention to detail. Manager is very kind & has great recommendations.

Used to really love this place as a kid, was really sad as an adult to see it declined so much before, but SO happy that the new owners brought it back and the quality has returned. Overall, I was super happy with my lunch here. Everything is done in a tad smaller batches than most places to reduce waste but also keep things fresh & not get dried out. The salt and pepper shrimp were perfect! All the veggies were great and not too oily. I do wish they had just a basic crunchy roll on the sushi portion, but I'm just not big on salmon, which was most of the options. All the fruit was super fresh and delicious. I ended up eating like a whole plate of pineapple. All in all, I definitely recommend coming by and trying the new Hunan out!

Came in for the buffet after reading the good reviews on yelp. Buffet was smaller than a lot of places, but the choices were excellent and the items were seasoned well and tasted great. They do have a menus that you can order from instead of the buffet and their take out order business seems to be doing well since I saw many coming in/going out during my visit. Service was fast and there are several nice oriental carvings and glass dividers which were lovely. Definitely worth a try if you are in the area!

Tried ordering off the menu today. Spicy shrimp w/veggies, fried rice, egg roll and soda. Everything was great.

The buffet was cold. None of the food was warm. And the food is average. Replying to the business owners comment about me that I haven't visited the restaurant and given them a 2 star review-How do you know I haven't been to your restaurant? By looking at my profile picture you didn't recognize me eating at your place or looking at my name you didn't recognize me in your billing/payment. A business owner should have the attitude to take any review and try to improve!!!

Everything was made in small batches on a Monday night and everything I tried was tasty. The young man that greeted me was super friendly and even recommended different dishes. Nice, small, and clean place.

The first time I ate here was about 4 years ago. Still very much during peak COVID, so my standards were already lower. My boyfriend and I decided to do the buffet, and by the time we got food on our plates it was too late to back out. It was all inedible. The interior was pretty dingy too, but I never judge a restaurant based only on that-if the place is old, that may mean the food stood the test of time (Looking at you Pinetta's, RIP). But that was not the case here. We asked for the check after barely eating and the waitress looked so sad. We tipped well and went to the car. Before we could pull out, an older man ran to our window and begged us to let him cook something fresh for us free of charge. I felt so bad, but being put on the spot we politely declined, even though he kept insisting. I feel so guilty about that now that I've read other reviews and learned that was the owner, Mr. Cheng. Apparently he was aging and in bad health, and I can understand why that may have affected the quality/freshness. There definitely wasn't a lot of in-person diners given that we all were trying to stay in quarantine, so I presume the buffet was just being neglected. BUT, I was looking to order delivery the other day, and I happened to see some very encouraging new reviews. Mr. Cheng sadly passed away, and everyone was raving about the changes the new owner made. Both with the food and the interior of the restaurant itself. So I decided to try again...and I'm happy to say that it was fantastic! I live about 15-20 min from the restaurant and everything was still piping hot when I got it. The flavor of their fried rice was incredible, not exaggerating when I say it's some of the best I've ever had. Their eggroll was literally the width of my palm (I'm 5'8", my hands aren't super tiny) and the filling was perfection. No weird gray meat like you may see with other eggrolls. Not saying that always indicates a bad flavor, but this was just nicer to look at lol. Egg drop soup was great. My ONLY complaint, which isn't a huge one, is that the general tso's chicken had much more breading than meat and had no spice to it, just very sweet. So that could have been better. But I also know that's the standard for american-chinese cuisine and most people probably prefer it that way. Overall it just really warms my heart to see an older business have new life breathed into it. Especially here in BR where most restaurants hardly last over a few years. If you haven't been to Hunan in a while, I encourage you to go give it another try!

So this Review is in part for the Too Good to Go process and my order I received from Hunan. When I arrived I noticed the buffet was pretty small, which I actually don't mind. I think it makes the quality better. It smelled really good in there and clean. The guy who I checked in with was kind and straight to the point. When I received my food I was excited to see I had a good variety of items for a very low price. On the app, my order was 6.99 and it included two plates of items selected by the Hunan staff. . I received the following: Box 1: crab Rangoon, a piece of fish, a spring roll, 2 fried Donuts, 3 plantains, and a piece of chocolate cake. Box 2: A house special lo mein or some sort of stir fry with noodles that had chicken, beef, and, broccoli, as well as shrimp etoufee. I was hesitant at first bc I don't typically eat any of those things except spring rolls and crab Rangoon but it smelled so good that I tasted everything! I enjoyed it all except the fish bc I don't like Swai/Basa, the plantains bc they were a little too hard, and the chocolate cake bc I don't care for pudding type icing. Everything else was really tasty!!! My son ate it all for the most part and he's pretty picky. He said the etoufee tasted like Louisiana etoufee, so I think that's a good thing! Overall, it made me want to order off their menu and check other items out. I'll definitely be back!

My wife ordered this online and this food tastes really good. It's cooked just the way I like it. It was prepared in a fast manner. I've ate there before and it was very clean and the service was excellent a great family atmosphere I would highly recommend this establishment.

I had written Hunan's off after our beloved Mr. Cheng passed away in 2020. It was my understanding that the establishment continued to decline in terms of food quality and management. The reviews on Yelp were terrible, and the restaurant even closed down for about a year. Last night I was scrolling through Yelp to help me pick a date night spot for my husband, and l. I was surprised when I came across Hunan's. I noticed the buffet area had been completely remodeled-no more wrestling the stairwell to get to access part of the buffet. It looked very nice. I called to get more information, and the new owner answered. He was polite and happy to answer my questions, expressing his eagerness for our visit. So, after Church, we decided to give them another try, and we are so glad we did! The beautiful ornate wood carvings and exquisite etched glass divider are still there. They have removed all the framed photos, brightened the place up with a fresh coat of paint, and completely remodeled the buffet area, making it so much easier to navigate and providing more dishes to choose from. The food was fresh and delicious. We will definitely become regulars. I met the owner today and he appears to be a hard-working young man who clearly takes pride in his restaurant, cares about his customers, has a welcoming staff, and consistently wears a smile. He is no relation to Mr. Cheng but I believe he would be very proud of how his legacy is being preserved. They reopened on January 1st so many don't know that Hunan's is back better than ever. Go check em out.

I got an order from Too Good to Go and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I have a favorite Chinese buffet back home and I rarely find any food that rivals it but Hunan may be that place. The process to pick up with the staff was easy and the place was clean. My fiancé enjoyed the food as well. We had fried rice, sesame chicken, spring roll, crab Rangoon, fish, and more. Knowing the food was that good as "leftovers" has me eager to return. I plan to go eat in tomorrow!

This is a one of those places that makes you feel like your family. My boy Jason just opened and needs everyone support. Every who loves to get good food at an affordable price, this is the spot. Here you won't have to break the bank to take someone out to dinner. When you go once you will be back again, I know I will.

The ONLY place I will eat a Chinese buffet. Super clean, food was very fresh reminded me of the old Golden palace buffet. Owner stopped by at least 3 times to check on us. Will be back very soon

Think the place went down a bit after grandfather passed. Decided to try again and ordered takeout. Chicken with cashews was astoundingly delicious! Enough for reheating which was even better second day. Delivered hot and by a very nice man! Will have repeat with maybe different entree. Won't be long. Great rediscovery!

Wasn't aware Hunan was under new ownership. If you liked Hunan before, you won't be disappointed now. Friendly staff, very clean dinning room and buffet. Great prices and delicious!
