Super King Buffet

Small place but have good foods on the weekends. Many seafood options. Their seafood like shrimps or crabs are fresh, I guess it's common for the Northwest. However, sushi isn't good at all, worse than other places, but you can't complaint since it's a buffet. They might need to renovate a little bit here because the establishment is old and too dark. Plenty of parking spaces.

Super King Delivers the Goods! As someone who’s spent serious time in China long enough to know my mapo from my ma po. I’ve learned not to get my hopes up when someone says, “You’ve gotta try this Chinese buffet.” Nine times out of ten, it's orange chicken purgatory served with a side of cultural amnesia. But Super King Buffet? This place actually gets some things right. You’ve got legit dishes that would make a homesick Laowai smile: proper ma po tofu with a bit of heat and funk, stir-fried chin choi that still has some crunch, and gou la rou that isn’t drowning in neon sugar sludge. They even roll out a solid dim sum selection not exactly street-level Guangzhou, but a respectable nod to it. Then there’s the full-on Guy Fieri flip; pizza! Also sushi, Jell-O, fruit, fried and steamed everything, and yes, soft-serve at the end like a sweet American flag waving in victory. The buffet is massive, the staff is genuinely friendly, and you won't be fighting for elbow room. This isn’t a five-star temple of gastronomy it’s a people’s palace where both expats and small-town food warriors can find something to love. The only real challenge? Pacing yourself before that final soft-serve cone calls your name.

“Well worth the drive and the cost. A good buffet. M-Th dinner $21.99. Weekend $23.99.See photos and read below.” (long review warning) I wanted to find a Chinese buffet in the area like ones we found in Arizona before Covid. We have tried a couple in Salem, and they are decent. But the local establishments created a desire to expect more. Because of the other reviews of Super King Buffet, I wanted to find out for myself if the negative /positive reviews aligned with my taste preferences and expectations. The appearance of the building outside is unremarkable. Inside, the place is extremely clean. Our server provided a table and our drinks quickly. Looking around, the empty tables were clean along with the floor of the establishment. A diverse culture of people was in attendance enjoying their meals, piled high with shrimp, open face clams, or crab. Others took a moderate approach, with a medium amount of food on their plate, but returned to the buffet line multiple times. I would suggest that before rushing off to the buffet selections, grabbing a plate and maxing out the square footage the plate can handle, just walk slowly up and down the many food stations and soak in the large variety of food options. There were 6 main stations. An additional two or three stations had fish on ice, and sushi. Dessert options I do not remember other that my wife getting the soft served ice cream. They offer coffee, tea, and Pepsi products. The restaurant was busy, but the food options were always replenished, and the serving areas were kept extremely clean. I was amazed at the selection options. Other buffet restaurants may have a decent seafood selection but miss enough variety if one does not want seafood or other items not offered. But the selection also needs to taste according to one’s expectation. I was pleased with all that I consumed. The hot food items were hot. The cold items were cold. The noodles and rice options met expectations of good Chinese buffets. Spring rolls were hot inside and crunchy outside and tasty. All the deep-fried foods I tried such as the butterfly shrimp, sweet/sour chicken, and crab wontons did not have any old oil after taste. This was a pleasant surprise. However, there were some disappointments in our food selections that night. For my taste (personal preferences), I disliked the coating on the chicken legs compared to other Chinese buffet restaurants. It seemed like they used the same coating they used on the fried fish. Then the salmon was dry. This is a problem at more than one restaurant, we have visited beyond a Chinese buffet environment. Good news is that all the shrimp selections are well cooked, not over cooked. Refills for our drinks and removing our used plates were faster than expected. My wife and I could not sample every item with just one visit, but we ate our usual favorites and except for the few discrepancies, we were incredibly pleased with this establishment. Is this an elegant restaurant environment with a salad bar option? No. But for a Chinese buffet, it delivers.

9/13/25 Sat 12 noon (update): overall food still delicious! Although some food were too salty . Good customer service! Would still go back again! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2024: All you can eat! Lots of varieties of food to choose from! Bring your family and friends! Nom nom

The food was pretty decent. They have a nice variety and the pricing isn't to bad. The atmosphere could use some updating and a bit more lighting wouldn't hurt. It's one of those places that just looks kinda dingy. I believe that was the biggest turn-off for me. Customer service was okay, but you have to remember it is a buffet. Therefore, other than drinks and cleaning of tables much service isn't needed.

Have a nice variety of seafood options and some sushi choices as well. Pretty decent.
