    This place had everything. Got lost lookin for pa Grand Canyon stumbled upon this place. Looked bad from outside but when we got in it was surprisingly nice and the food. Tons of it all different kinds and it was all good. Priced good at $12 a person. Even had ice cream and lots of other desserts. If you ever find yourself in town stop in.

    Absolutely HORRIBLE food. Everything Chinese was gross, tasteless, and some chicken was even COLD. My husband tried a bite of everything on his plate before telling me that he wasn't eating anymore. The only edible thing in this place was the boxed garlic bread that probably came from WalMart. It was not at all worth 22 bucks. I wouldn't have eaten here for free after the experience we just had. The one good thing about this place, is the staff was friendly, although they were beyond slow at getting us our bill. Do not go here. Ever.

    Every time we've visited Lock Haven we've been here for the lunch buffet. This place is really close to 220 and the highway. it has easy on off and there is plenty of parking. The staff is pretty friendly and the foods always full. Like the name says they have Japanese, Chinese and American foods. its okay i guess, kinda greasy, and their sushi has lots and lots of rice and a tiny amount of crab or eel or whatever. Pizza, garlic bread, salad, sushi, sesame chicken, pepper steak, peking ribs, bourbon chicken, etc. but for 5.50 you cant go wrong. Soups include clam chowder, hot & sour and wonton.

    The variety Buffet also serves foods such as crab legs, lobster, squid. They have recently moved down the street from their old place of business to make way for the new lowes that has gone in it's now located at the entrance to Camelot Estates in the old Health South Building. It has grown quite busy and the parking area is smaller than the one they had in the old Ames Plaza.

    As my girlfriend and I drove from New Haven to Chicago, we decided to make a dinner stop in Lock Haven/Mill Hall PA. After searching Yelp and Google for a decent looking restaurant, we decided to try Variety Buffett in Mill Hall PA. Our experience started by walking into the buffet and waiting 10 minutes to be seated. Throughout the 10 minute wait, three waitresses walked throughout the buffet, making eye contact with us up front yet ignoring us and even getting personal plates of food. Keep in mind, there were only two tables seated at the time, leaving 95% of the restaurant dead. After a minute of waiting, I suggested to my girlfriend that we leave and find a place that actually wanted us as guests. However, she insisted that we eat Chinese food, so we continued to wait. Finally, after 10 minutes of waiting at the front of the restaurant, a young oriental man walked up to us and asked to seat us. We followed him into the restaurant and sat in an entirely vacant section. While we were being seated, the three oriental waitresses began snickering and laughing behind our backs. I couldn't understand what we had done to deserve the treatment we received. I put my things down and went to get my first plate of food. I picked from a variety of fried dishes (nearly everything was fried). I also poured myself a cup of hot and sour soup. When I got back to the table and began to eat, I knew something was not right. The meat was nearly inedible and overcooked. It tasted as if it had been sitting under heat lamps for an entire day. It was hard to chew, tasteless, and loaded with sweetener. Dish after dish, I came to the same conclusion. The food was abhorrent, and when I took a sip of the hot and sour soup, I had nothing better to say. This is the first and only buffet I have not filled a second plate at. I simply could not eat the food. Additionally, the "hot sauce" they claimed to have was vinegar based Louisiana Hot Sauce, a far stretch for a Chinese restaurant. Our experience got even better towards the end of the meal. The man who originally served us came to our table with the bill. It was around $22 for the two of us. My girlfriend offered to pay as she pushed to eat Chinese food and I gladly obliged. As my girlfriend went to the restroom before leaving, one of the waitresses came back to the table with her credit card and bill (the one you fill out with tip and total). We had both decided to tip nothing due to the terrible service and horrible food. I filled out the receipt with a line through the tip section and signed the name. I then flipped the bill upside down and waited for my girlfriend to return from the restroom. As my girlfriend was walking back to our table, one of the waitresses walked towards our table and put her hand on the plastic tray holding the bill I had just filled out. I pulled it back towards me, and said "not yet", however she yanked it from under my hand, flipped over my bill and gave me a dirty look. I was in absolute shock from what just happened. We promptly left the restaurant and started back on our way to Chicago. This restaurant is disgusting, and their service is absolutely unprofessional and rude. I would not recommend this restaurant if it were the last place to eat on Earth. Beware of this establishment and stay away!

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
