Great food always busy that is why we get take-out. We think the food is awesome! we always get take-out as they are so busy and once in awhile one of the dishes will be a bit cold and we phone them up and the next time we order we always get that dish or any other for nothing because our food was cold. yes they are busy and the service can be slow so rather then wait we like to have it at home so we don't have to drink and drive! great food!
Best Chinese food hands down!. Such a great and large buffet. Good service, and the tastiest Chinese food, worth the drive if you don't live close.
Very good weekday lunch from the menu. Wor wonton and beef taipan-
Recommend. My husband is extremely sensitive to msg- no issue here. Good service too .
Fantastic, fresh and tasty! Combo for 2 lots of fresh veggies, beef cooked amazingly tender. sweet and our pork amazing, chicken chow was also good.
Take out order, ready within 25 mins. This meal fed a family of 2 adults and 4 kids. 29 with tax. I'll be back!
Good food. Had the buffet. It just started and was fresh and really busy. A little pricey. Very expensive for little kids. not the usual $1 per year
ACES: so glad we came onto urban spoon to check out a place to stop on our travels ... Wow seriously was great.. Food was fresh staff was on top on drinks and taking my multiple plates.. I wish I could have eaten more and hella prawns
Good food, decent service. Brought in 2 group of 12 people over 2 days, one was a family dinner other was my bachelors party, food was good, the tables were low or empty when we arrived at 5:30pm they started filling them up but the buffet alerady had 3-4 Family and then our group so whatever was out was snatched up quick leaving us waiting for the kitchen to get more out, which they did every plate I had (4) the table would be refilled 1 tub at a time.
I love the food here, It has always been good value for my dollar, the seafood is fresh and I have never been sick and I have eaten all the shrimp/shellfish everytime Ive been.
I will continue to bring friends and family here, for large groups its great, 12 full grown men ate as much as we could for just over 200$ +tip everyone was happy and full!
Good food & service. Have eaten there often over many years. Consistantly good food and service. Buffet is good with a large selection. Be prepared to wait for a table. It is worth it.

Best Chinese Buffet in Vancouver Island. Funny but the name "Driftwood" doesn't even sound like a typical Chinese restaurant. Yeah! They serve Chinese food and it's darn good! If you are a big eater and love seafood this is the best bang for your buck. They cook the prawns and shrimps in so many different ways and it's always fresh as they replenish the serving trays frequently in small portions. My favorite is the mussels, singapore noodles and beef black bean sauce and hot & sour soup. I recommend a reservation as this place gets packed as early as 5 p.m.
Best chinese food in the area no question but if you want to go here reservations for dinner are a must and still expect to wait 30 mins for a table friendly staff just hope they dont seat you at the front so when you make your trips to well stocked buffet you have to wade through a crowded entrance way filled with hungry people who have been waiting far too long for a table only problem with this place is its 25min drive from town center and its far to busy if you want to avoid the drive and the crowds i suggest ginger beef house only other full time buffet in town and its a bit cheaper but not quite as well stocked buffet
I was super skeptical at first, but this place sure did surprise me! The food is delicious and the service is great! If anyone is driving by here, be sure to come check it out! I will definitely be back.
UPDATE: I’m back just a couple days later... lol thoroughly enjoying it. Don’t hesitate, just come stop by!
My Mom really likes to go for their buffet. There's a good mix of different dishes and several with seafood. Friendly and attentive staff.
Excellent food, big servings. Fast service. We each ordered a combo for one. You have a choice of chow mein or rice. We added 1 extra item each. The servings were enough for both of us plus we have enough left overs for tomorrow nite. Prices are very reasonable. And the taste is very good. Two combos for one with an extra item plus 2 cokes came to under $40...

Recommendation:
Reservation is the best way to go!
It does get busy, especially with the Pandemic they've set up boundaries and which way to walk like most shopping stores! But before you go to the Buffet! Please, I repeat "Please"; wash your hands & use the sanitizer provided! They've got lots of different choices to eat from! Garlic Shrimp, Wonton Soup, even Chicken Balls; just to name a few! They've got regular to spicy food! Wait staff are fine, but could be a little more courtious! And ask customer how their meal is or fill water glass more without having to wait for customer to ask for it
Excellent Chinese food buffet is served at this restaurant. A la carte dishes are also available for the picky eaters. The restaurant is very popular and is always crowded for dinner even on weekdays. Free parking is available in the compound. Service is quick and friendly and the prices are very reasonable considering the variety of seafood they serve up in the buffet. It is located about 2 km from the Salmon Point RV Campground and Marina.
A friend and I went there for the lunch buffet. We walked inside and waited to be seated for 15 minutes with tables available the whole time
We waited. Then we were told to just seat ourselves. We did and waited another 20 minutes before we got up a nod left. Truely a very poor dining experience.
