Golden Palace

Great all-around Chinese buffet and they just renovated the place so it looks a lot nicer and less depressing/dingy as it did before... Unfortunately, they are not doing the buffet on the weekend anymore I think as a result of covid supply chain problems and possibly Less business than before but, still a good lunch option in the Oakland area... $14 (incl. refill-able sodas.)

Good food and nice people! Will come back

This buffet was AMAZING. High quality dishes for $13.99 that includes unlimited fountain drink. They had amazing chow fun, hunan beef, and rice noodles. My friend couldn’t get enough of the fried donuts. They also had dimsum you can order a la carte. Each basket was $6.50. Other reviews raved about the dimsum but I didn’t think it was very good. We ordered shumai, har gao, pork buns, and egg tart. They were all just meh. 3/5. It wasn’t fresh and it tasted off. But the buffet is great. I would definitely come back just for that.

Haven't been there on a weekday for the buffet, but not worth going on weekends. Buffet is closed on weekends, and the dishes you can order are extremely expensive for the very small portions. Also the waitresses seemed to be rushing to get me out of the door, even though there was no one else in the restaurant. They even took my plate away as soon as I picked up the last bite. Atmosphere was very stuffy, plus the music they had on had advertisements in the middle, they didn't pay for a youtube premium subscription.

Delicious food and good vibes! I love the decorations in the restaurant. Food was here at the blink of an eye. Employees were nice.
