Oklahoma might be last in healthcare access, but I can proudly say we are number one in the country when it comes to Chinese buffet access!
With such a vibrant Asian culture that has brought a wide mélange of styles from across the Far East to the Metro, from the fanciest hipster fusion joint to the smallest “to-go” housed in a former Taco Tico, Oklahoma City is also home to some of the most high-quality, high-class Chinese buffets that offer a little bit of everything from every culture, all expertly prepared and served in a manner that, honestly, you don’t see anywhere else in the country. Consider it a melting pot filled with duck sauce, if you will.
But what’s truly beautiful about OKC’s Chinese buffets, that I’ve noticed from my encounters with various owners and managers, is the way many of these establishments treat their food (as well as their customers) as though they were in Michelin-rated restaurants, taking absolute pride in offering mostly-traditionally prepared, delicious all-you-care-to-eat meals at an affordable price without skimping on the chef’s flair for inventive flavors, and, most importantly, adding that little something special to each serving that makes their food stand out from others. I’d actually be willing to put up some of these eats against a more expensive upscale eatery any day, holmes.
Over the past year or two, I’ve had numerous requests for my favorite Chinese buffets, and, after a few months of research, I think I’ve found my definitive five. (For now, at least.) Noting the wide ranges of flavors and tastes to the broad selections of different foods sampled—all cooked up fresh and served with an absolute adherence to pleasing the palate of every customer—here are my picks for the top five Chinese buffets in the Metro, in no particular order. ¡Cómpralo ya!
