“ Their food is terrific! However, one Sunday after service we went to eat and there was a cockroach on the wall over the buffet range where the chicken on the stick is served. The hostess ran with a napkin to remove the roach and I wondered if she even caught it. It makes me think if there are roaches coming out to the dining area, how are they throughout the rest of the restaurant? Everything aside, the food is delicious! ”
“ They have a great buffet that is so delicious and tasty! The waitresses are top notch and the smaller quaint atmosphere gives this place it's local charm! ”
“ Recently oriental pearl on Sherwood has been consistently better than Hunan, which is across the street. The best time is always after the first wave of diners have devoured the first batch of food, and the food is then replenished. I don't know if they are called vermicelli noodles, but the white noodles were excellent. The sesame chicken was very good. The chicken on a stick was very good. The dim sum or pot stickers were good and had a pineapple soy dipping sauce to accompany it. The hot and sour soup was good. The garlic shrimp were excellent. The beef as well as chicken dishes were good. The salt and pepper shrimp were good. The fried rice was a C. It could have used a little something. The presentation and freshness was there but it was missing that aromatic vibe that classic fried rice usually has. I don't like mayo sauce on my sushi, so I did not try any. I consistently go to this location. The service is always great. The owner is always friendly, and the whole crew works hard. I will go back. Check them out when you are in the area. ”
“ Very good food…. Some say the buffet is small and it is on the smaller size but it does have the most popular food selections. I would definitely come back ”
