    I am going to give this place 3.5 stars. This is my first time eating here and I did the takeout buffet which for lunch is only $4.99 per pound. I loaded up my plate and everything tastes decent. The only thing I really did not like was the chicken wings.  The green beans and spinach are awesome, I had the general tsp chicken, chow mei fun, vegetable lo mien and need and beef and broccoli. All very good. All the food was served hot, I literally was grabbing the food as it was coming out from the back on the trays. The service was good and you can smell the actual Chinese food ... not the smell of dirty socks like everyone says

    Idk about this place. I'm not a picky eater so I'm fond of buffets.  I go to one almost weekly. Usually even if the decor is lacking, if the food is good I usually go back and recommend the food.
    However, Century buffet in bristol is that one buffet I would not recommend. It's like they're not even trying any more. The hot and sour soup was off, the items at the buffet were laughably bad.. They  even messed up warming up the frozen chicken nuggets.  It's a shame because this is the only chinese buffet in bristol.

    This place in one word....eh. The food there for 5:00 dinner time was old and not fresh at all. Most of the items were literally the last remains of the pans. The chicken and broccoli was picked through so it only had broccoli left. The Chinese donuts were rock hard. The coconut shrimp was sitting in a thick, shiny pool of syrup. The old food matches the very out dated decor. The staff is friendly and they seem to like to come by and entertain little kids. My kids at least liked that part.

    This place is gross. Avoid this restaurant at all cost. I don't try to ruin anybody's business but after you and the people your with get food poisoning I feel it's my obligation to warn people so you don't end up as sick as we were.

    Worst buffet I've ever stepped into. Smelled like dirty socks as soon as we walked through the door. Century old food. Century old decor. Not much to choose from and the staff didn't restock the food as they should. We stuck it out and ate there anyway at 65 bucks for 4. I just hope we don't end up with food poisoning! Please don't eat here.
