For dinner tonight we felt like Chinese food and thought to try Sino Buffet in Nampa for the first time. It's located on 623 Caldwell Blvd.
We decided to do take out and eat in the comfort of our own home instead of dining in at the restaurant. I called ahead of time and the kind lady who answered the phone explained that we could either order by individual entree or we could choose from the buffet and the charge for that was $4.99/lb. I told my husband to go and check it out and pick up whatever he thought was best... and of course, he ate with his eyes first and opted for the latter. Here's the feast he brought home for us:
Egg rolls, pot stickers, and peppered chicken.
Lo mein, fried rice, Honey Crisp and General Tso Chicken
Sweet and Sour Chicken
And voila... our very own buffet at home!
Since we didn't actually eat there I can't comment on the customer service, but my husband said the restaurant was clean and in good shape. He also said they had a salad bar, which I would have enjoyed. As far as the food goes, out of 5 stars, our family gave it 3.5 stars. Not the best that we've tried in Chinese food, but certainly not the worst; and for what we brought home, I think the pricing was very fair. The total bill came out to $24. Not bad for a family of 4 and leftovers for tomorrow's lunch. Will we go back? Probably so and maybe next time we'll dine in. My personal favorite was the Honey Crisp Chicken and the lo mein.... and also the fact that I didn't have to cook any of it. My children liked the Sweet and Sour chicken and my man liked the General Tso chicken best.
