REVIEWS OF Young Young Chinese Buffet IN Connecticut

Steve Benson

Great chinese at a great price! The food is always freshly prepared.We highly recommend Young Young Chinese Buffet.

Vera Pinkard

I think this place was great. It was nice, CLEAN, cozy, and not too overwhelming... The food was fresh and tasty and the staff was super nice. We went for the lunch buffet, which was only 8.99. I was so surprised that there was spicy mango salad as a choice. I'm not ashamed to say that I've been to a lot of buffets and I've never seen spicy mango salad as a selection.

Jerry Albert

A steady stream of customers was observed as we sat enjoying our supper. Our initial foray to the buffet tables revealed food that was less than hot. Subsequent trips were more enjoyable as the food had been replenished and therefore arrived hot. Various meat dishes and shrimp were the primary proteins and a dish marked baked crab tasted suspiciously like imitation. I found little in the vegetable category with the exception of green beans. Pudding and various fruits completed our meal. Service was minimal, but empty plates were promptly removed between refills. Pricing was very good for essentially an all you can eat restaurant.

Steven Cordon

The staff is always rude and yelling at each other in an Asian language. I would not recommened this place. Their food is hardly ever fresh also.

Linda Southworth

If you're thinking about going here, my advice... don't. It's super small, VERY limited selection. The food is hot and edible, but nothing to brag about. The staff is friendly, but really pushy, trying to take plates away while you're still eating. We had to ask for water 3 times before we got it. The place is fairly inexpensive so there is that.

Izabella Solivan Mangual

I was really craving some Chinese food but I wasn't feeling like ordering in and thought my family and I would check this pleace out. We was sladley disappointed. The place was not inviting, and petty dingy. There was only two rows of food and one of them was a dessert row, the other lacked in variety. The food was ok....... it just did not meet my family's low expectations along with not satisfying my Saturday night Chinese food craving. Bright side, pretty good pricing at $8.95 a head.

Monica Cusano

LOVE THIS PLACE! The best Chinese food.

David Barrett

I love going here to eat. I go pretty often and am never disappointed. Don't be deceived by the stores appearance, the food is great! Good cost for a buffet meal as well!

Jessica Demayo

Benjamin Stern

Food was alright, but there weren't a lot of options available. It'll do in a pinch.

Best place on earth. Jesus came back to tell me to teach of this place.

Very good

It was very loud owners and workers speaking in other language loud back in forth the whole time we were there it freaked us out like they might have been fighting or something

Norm S.

Been coming here for years. Classic cheap Chinese food. Enjoy!

Gilberto Alicea

Adequate place with 2 islands of food with some good choices. Need too update Google maps cause they don't show times for lunch hours.

Ken Lewis

Great selection and all fresh!

Matthew Sylvester

John Jakobski

Went here for the first time since it's right next door...Never again. This place is dirty, dim lighting (probably so you can't see all the actual filth). Staff was rude, they make you pay up front, and even charge for a 2 year old (everywhere else, it's 3+). Food looks like it's been sitting under the heat lamps for days and there is only i tiny selection.

Ian Foster

Cold food, small selection, with a so so taste. If ur going during the week make sure you get there for 530-6pm. That's when warm trays are brought out.

Heather Ray

Best chinese I've found around here and most affordable. Its smaller but the food is pretty good. Some of the beans were a little cold but I think that has more to do with their lighting at the buffet instead of the freshness because it was all delicious!

Jared Dunn

Okay

Joy Campbell

Very good food very good service and clean bathrooms. If your a truck driver when you want to bobtail here you can park the trailer at the TA truck stop or there is an empty dirt lot across the street for your truck and trailer

Leif Kehrein

Good place to go for lunch. Less than 20 for 2 people. Good selection of food no complaints.

Hector Santaniello

Good food, good price and good service

JULIE Sweet Cakes

Poor sevice and food choice they literally have only few things on each tray i haded to be getting up to get them to bring me refills and pick up the plates didnt get the attention u get in other buffets and the rice was horrible

Gabe Rzadkiewicz

Good food, cheap prices

Ant Fitness

I went to this place yesterday at 7pm. The place was quite and clean. The waitress was okay but defiantly walked with an attitude. The host behind the register was good though. We got seated and I ordered a lemonade. One of the worst lemonade I've ever had you're better off with just water as I don't drink soda. Got up to get a plate of food. Very small variety. The rice was bland with no flavor, overcooked, and just clumps of rice in a ball. Not the best idea to have made it in a crockpot. The General Tso was soggy and cold. Teriyaki and steak was also cold. The best thing I had off my plate was broccoli but even that was cold too. I then told the host about the experience and showed her where I was seated and why there was a plate full. I explained to her that their heating system wasn't working properly if everything was cold. Then, cared to explain to her that some of that food was definitely not fresh such as the General Tso which was cold and soggy. She agreed with me on all the complaints acknowledging this isn't the first time that they've received these same complaints. I got my check cut in half and they gave me a fortune cookie. I took a bite of it in the car, and I kid you not that was the slatelest cookie I've ever had. I spit it out on the side of the road. I don't recommend this place for my worst enemy. I won't be going back.

Israel Martinez

Small selection of food.

pat loungo

very good. food is always fresh.

Sandra Bryant

Great for the price especially. They just need to put music on. It is too quiet.

Nicole Dell'Agnese

Very disappointed. Very small only had two tables with food, their "chicken wings" were sad looking chicken nuggets, pork fried rice was very bland same with other items. Pudding and chicken w/broccoli was only good thing.

Richard Gates

A small Chinese buffet restaurant with a cosy atmosphere, and very helpful and pleasant staff. The food choices are less than a larger place but very nice, including all the main items you would expect. Parking is easy a few feet from the door and the prices are very reasonable. I recommend this place.

Barry V

Good food, but limited selection. Staff is friendly.

Doctor Medina

I was not impressed at all. Never again will i eat there. The food left a lot to be desired. Deserts were stale and tasted awful.

Young young chinesse Buffet is the best i like

Angela Bovino

My husband want young young so we came . I told ladies sitting us that i wanted to order off menu "said ok great, she replies ". Well now my husband is done with his first buffet plate and 15 minutes and lady never came back . but did decide to go talk to other waitress instead of taking order. Just came to fill husbands soda though and ignored the fact I was telling her I wanted to order. Yep I won't be back

Tina Van Gorder

Good buffet food...the waitress was not very good had to keep waiting for drinks and napkins

Trajan Spillane

They aren't bad, but they were nothing special. The biggest thing I remember about them is that they were the first Chinese buffet I've ever been to that didnt have fried rice.

Vivian Tentoni

Great family run restaurant

Mikaela Blake

I work around the corner from this restaurant and I think it has awesome food. It's great if you're on lunch break because you can take the buffet to go and you can choose your items. I was a bit disappointed to find that they are closed, but they are remodeling so I'm waiting to see the new restaurant. I'll still keep coming back. Prices are excellent and you can stuff the to-go container full of food and it's one set price.

Eddie

Minimal selection

Davesprite Strider

Good all you can eat Chinese food, great service.

Mark Toro

Awesome food! Best buffet I been in a while.

81liljaybo

This place is good. Not a lot to choose from but it's always warm and fresh. You really can't beat the price either.

Kerry Medovich

A family favorite! Good food, friendly service.

Carmen Figueroa

Cindy Russell

I was very disappointed with their buffet. My family loves going to Chinese buffets and I finally agreed to go with them. The food didn't look appetizing and it had no flavor. Even though we were seated far from the front door, we froze each time the door was open. My family can go back without me.

Kasie Lester

Not enough variety

Rob Ericson

Always friendly, always good food!

Fury 2015

They don't have a very big selection.

robert bennett

Poor service. Waited forever for a drink refill food selection is poor took forever for them to refill the bar . I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone

Dawn Slonski

I have to give Young Young’s a great review for many reasons! First, the food is FANTASTIC! Additionally, the owner is great to deal with and VERY accommodating. Today is a great example of this! During a snowstorm when many restaurants are closed - I called Young Young’s and they were able to accommodate a very large luncheon within a half an hour! Thank you Young Young’s, we will definitely do business with you again soon!

Kyle Olsen

Best chinese buffet in the history of Chinese buffets for 10 bucks and a tip you get so much banging stuff to choose from ...had one bad experience but they made up for it and they also sold me some classic RC COLA cups brand new ...wish I could give it 10 stars

Thomas Chewsutren

Best Mexican food in the state

elaine sisson

Good food, family friendly, friendly service

Randall Nadeau

Today I went to Young Young Chinese Buffet. It was a very disappointing experience for me and my daughter. We were there to celebrate Mother's Day. The food was Cold , it did not taste fresh. The veg rolls were not fried well and the the dough inside was uncooked. When I pointed out to all this the manager or the owner just kept saying sorry. We tried to eat the food taken in the plate but just couldn't eat it . We left the table without eating.. The ended up paying $19.05 for nothing. I do not recommend anyone going there. The seats are torn which are taped. Very less variety of food. Which is cold. I would not even give one star to this buffet. It was a bad experience.

Stephanie O'Loughlin

Phyllis Martino

Good food, clean place, great price

Jo Perkins

Wasn't bad. For as all as it is it had a decent variety . Food was cool, could have been hotter. I may try it again.

MeMa C

NEW OWNERS!!! During my recent visit the ladies here are very attentive, courteous and professional. The food is actually much BETTER now! Same low price. The dishes on the buffet are the same type(ie. General Tso's chicken, lo mein)but taste much better. They make a Honey chicken/shrimp that's FANTASTIC!! Price for an adult is $8.95. Child is $5.00. Drinks are not included(unless you want water) Keep up the great work!!

j u l i a

I asked my dad how many stars and he said "a million" soo. Anyway, the food was really good. The lo mein, chicken, egg roll, and fried dumpling was delicious, I've been craving Chinese food for a while now and this fulfilled my cravings. Their ice cream is on another level it made me wanna cry about how good it is but it was really good thank you

Master Lord Guru

Very well priced for a smaller buffet but its what i want. If your looking for crab legs or a huge dessert bar. This is not the place. However.. For under 10 dollars, best value for good chinese

Kent Gerber

Many other reviewers appear to go into Young Young's expecting resturaunt style food and service in a buffet. If you go to Young Young's don't be fooled by the dark area and Styrofoam plates because they have the best Chinese food I've ever eaten. The wonton soup, pork, and chicken and broccoli are favorites that I get every time I go. The staff is also very nice and even take away your empty plates for you so you don't have to look at partially eaten food.

Meaghan Hitchcock

Food was so, so. Not what I expected for a Chinese buffet. Not much choice on food. Very disappointing

François Desaulniers

Good and cheap

Jan Benevento

You will be sick dirty and nasty

Lindsey Lyon

Really good food, but the only reason I chose 4 stars and not 5 is because they really need to label their dishes available. There weren't many signage so you sort of have to take a wild guess of what your putting on your plate, other than that, everything that my fiance and I grabbed was delicious.

Jocelyn Henderson

Food was excellent. The thing I didn't like was they said 5 min for what I ordered and it was 12 min . But , tasted great

Heather Vonhagen

Noon food should have been fresh and hot and was not..the soup wonton was brought out and was the only item steaming..icream worked and was creamy...i guess if you need a clean womans restroom stop in...

Autumn Burke

The good is good, the service is verry good but the fact that to food sits out for a long time

Cynthia Jimenez

Excellent customer service I went in with my family they treated us so nice it's a small place but great people!!!

Chris Lineberry

New Owners very rude

Laura Benson

Food taste was not good

George Dutil

Great buffet. Not large but nice selection, always fresh with full trays.

Heather

For the price this is a great option for lunch.

Ed Hughes

good food good people , great staff

Michael Lefay

Small buffet, selections do not change much so if you like what they have it is what you go back for. Family run with friendly staff, go to for a quick meal.

Marina Reyes

The food was cold not many potions and bad service.

pew pew

By the way, the original owner sold his restaurant just so you guys know. That's why, some people think the food tastes bad.

susan ostuno

Don't go very often but it was okay yesterday.

J& M tv

Good food but need more barieties

Sean Kafka

Good value , good food , sometimes slow service but it's our favorite Chinese food around

Anastasia Perez

Affordable, clean, and great customer service.

Thomas Feeney

We went for a late lunch just as they were refilling the buffet for dinner. Fresh general tso was nice and crispy.

John Guida

Good food and clean tables. Self service and lots of choices

Raymond Morin

Basil Lestale

Great place for a quick bite. Small, local sort of feel to it. Nothing fancy but nothing sort of authenticity. Helpful and friendly staff. 10/10 would recommend. Come with friends.

Samuel Raj

Joe Picone

Quick service. Great price. Decent buffet style Chinese food.

David Beal

Horrible .....

Kevin Shufford

I'd never had nor heard of Mango salad... It was good!

Aneudy Martinez

Laura Robertson

Sarah DelBene

I had a desperate craving for Chinese food, we decided to try this place. First, we received somebody else's order. Then when we finally received the proper order an hour later, it was missing items. The fried rice was bland, the sesame chicken was chewy, and a few bites into my lo mein I found a hair then lost my appetite and threw my food out. My boyfriend decided to try to eat some of his leftovers the following day and also found a hair. Super gross. Will not eat here again.

Jared Julia

Clayon Lumsden

The food was good but needed more variety

Elizabeth Benson

Bad selection. Over cooked. Dissapointing

David Terricciano

Better then mainland China. Even the water is authentic.

Brittany Marques

Went around 12pm and the food was cold. Not even warm, cold. Very bland, and chicken was suspect. Fiancé and I both agreed on the food, not good at all.

Cliff P

Food is good owners rock great service for a buffet

Yo Cuevas

Best chinese food EVER

I love kelli maple

Ate all that I could. The food was just.... magnificent

Adrian Durlester

I was new to the area, and the reviews I had seen here and elsewhere had given me pause-but I went to try it and I am glad I did. Much of what you will read in the reviews is out of date. There are no paper or Styrofoam plates (except the to go boxes.) The buffet was well stocked. The place was quite busy. Everything I ate (and I tried many items) was hot and fully cooked. The food was tasty, and there was a decent variety. I stayed a long time, and saw the buffet constantly being restocked. It is an extremely reasonable value for the price. One of the least expensive buffets I have ever seen. If you're looking for a gourmet Chinese meal, what are you doing at a buffet? If you are looking for a good deal and satisfying food, I'd highly recommend you give this place a try. I continue to eat here on a regular basis, and I continue to be satisfied with the food. It remains the best bargain in the area by far.

Harvey Russell

The place got cold every time the door opened for people even if the had take out.

Rogue Ranger

Came Sunday at NOON, to find The Atmosphere COLD Like The FOOD. Very Limited Variety; if You want to call it that.. Very Disappointed, Not Likely To Return.

Johanna Castro

Good food.

Donna Ferraro

Pleasant environment, the buffet was delicious!

R Ml

Not bad,small but good food

dbzgal04

Delicious food, friendly staff, reasonable prices, Young-Young Chinese Buffet is by far one of the greatest Chinese restaurants I've ever been to!

Sergio Grajeda

Great service the food was delicious.

Enudio Colon

Food was fresh and tasty. Not a ton of choices but what was available was great. Definitely gonna return.

Kevin Murray

Classic China Buffet dishes are all worth trying. Do not expect to see sushi rolls or a mongolian grill. This is a small place that does their stars justice. Go there to try the classic favorites their Crab Rangoon, General Tsao, Sweet and Sour Chicken. Soups too. Go there and see for yourself : )

Matthew Volpe

Great food, low price, been going here for years!

Sandy Dube

Not much to choose from. From what I had it was delicious.

Jose Perez

Good food

Richard Ryan

Can't even get a drink order right

Filomena Echevarria

Not too much

tonia ogb

Not trying to be petty but this my honest review. If you've been to other chinese buffets, you'll be surprised with this restaurant. Here are my observations.. Pros- *Quiet *Friendly staffs *Cute place Cons- *Not enough variety to choose from *Not enough desert/vegetables variety *Chinese chicken are usually crispy but this was soggy. *Ice cream tasted like frozen milk *No Chinese fried rice *Pork fried rice was bland. Again I'm sorry if I offend anyone but this is just an honest review.

Kelly Pryor

It was better when they didn't wait on you...

Michael Michaud

Ordered drinks no straws, food sucks, card was charged more than bill
