This was an incredible restaurant. Especially for a buffet. It seemed that it was run but only a few people and some of the areas were shut down in the restaurant as if they may not be used much. But The buffet was very good and I tried a great many of the dishes. Several of my normal favorites for buffet were definitely spot on. The lady that welcomed us and set us and got our drinks and refilled orders and cashed us out was amazing! She was there at the right times even though she also served several other customers. Really impressed. Also the inside of the restaurant was very decorated. Hope to be able to return on another visit to Galveston.
I've lived in Galveston for 6 years and this is my husband and I's favorite Chinese restaurant on the island. The buffet is incredible, with a delicious variety of all your favorite foods. Their bottomless crawfish is amazing! They also offer American food items on the buffet, as well as a delicious array of desserts. Also, their service is impeccable!!!
Anyone who complains have never actually had a bad buffet. Peking is 5 star. I've tried many buffets in many different states, Arkansas being the worst, and Peking being the best. The people who leave negative reviews are clueless when it comes to what buffets are about. Don't listen to the negative reviews, they are ridiculous. Absolutely clean, hot, fresh, delicious, and the server is absolutely kind. This is hands down the best Chinese food in all of Galveston. Everything was On-Point. They had many, many options. And lots of seafood too, they also offer an excellent sushi. Crab, clams, shrimp, general chicken, and the best egg rolls in town.
I decided to give Peking Buffet a chance despite some negative reviews, and I'm happy I did. The place was clean, the food was good, and the staff was friendly and always smiling. Although it seemed a bit empty for its capacity, it meant I could enjoy my meal without any hassle. It's a traditional buffet experience that I enjoyed. Taking the chance was worth it, and I left feeling satisfied and happy.
Food is ok, you can find different kinds of dishes. Enough parking lots.
It's a great place to have a meal. The food is very good. The special milk tea is very much to my liking!
The on-site dining environment is clean and comfortable. The restaurant replenishes dishes in a timely manner. The service staff are warm and considerate. The overall dining atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant. Whether it's a family dinner or a get-together with friends, it's a highly cost-effective choice and is worth recommending.
The food is very good! Especially fried bananas! It smells so good!
