Great Wall has the best buffet, by far. The Chinese Inn on Airline once had the best individual dishes, but has declined.
Is that place down Nicholson called "The Chinese Restaurant" still around? It gets the vote for most original name. :hihi:
Best buffet regardless of price King's Buffet on Bluebonnet across from the mall Best Cheap Chinese China City on Bennington Best Overall Restaraunt Great Wall
Bamboo Garden on Essen has the most consistent Chinese food in town. While the wife enjoys the limited buffet items, I always endulge off the menu. Very, very good. But you gotta order off the menu to get the high quality stuff. As far as buffet-style goes, the Great Wall is very good. Only problem for me is that they load up (at least they used to) on the MSG and that triggers a migraine headache every time. Had to quit eating there, but the food was always good. I had heard this was good, but haven't been yet.
If there is anyone here who honestly thinks that the Great Wall is the best chinese in BR they haven't eaten at Hunan's. TGW is OK at best. It doesn't even hold a candle to Hunan's either at the buffet or for dinner.
Not a fan of Hunan's. Hunan's menu items are significantly better than the buffet, which I do not care for in the least. Its also a difference in the regional style of cooking. I prefer traditional Cantonese, where Hunan tends to be a bit more spicy. To each his own, but I definitely vote Bamboo Garden over both TGW and Hunan's.
