This is the best place in Red Deer for fresh Chinese food! The staff are always making sure that the buffet is full and hot, and are always walking around making sure our drinks are full and table is clean. The people running this place definitely know what they're doing! They offer a vast selection of food - including mouth watering dim sum! We always come here for Chinese food. Definitely recommend!
**dim sum was quite good but the rest of the buffet was lacking still a great little mom n pop shop*dim sum wasn't as stellar as other days. Sui mai was too fatty. Ham sui gok had the wrong exterior. ...no ice cream in the buckets... dim sum is still super good. Even their tray buns are made in house... with shiny crisp exteriors.. just like the bakeries...a great value and service was fast and efficient....Now we know why the seniors come here...***always a bonus when you can have dim sum included in a buffet. Surprisingly I'd have say to it was really good. The rest of the buffet was ok... although we did get there at almost the end of lunch. Other plus the bathroom was clean and wasn't like a freezer. It's family friendly. Both bonus points. The price for kids up to 9 isn't an arm and leg. But 10 + are considered same as adult. Probably a sliding scale would work better for kids. It's a buck off for seniors. I'd try it again at the beginning of the lunch buffet
Great food every time. Huge portion sizes. At the end of the day with no meal in sight for my family this where I go or lately they come to us. Happy customer here.
Good selection!
We are there every second Sunday! See you Cindy!

Good food and fair size selection. Food is good tasting and they offer Dim Sum. Good selection of variety of choices and like all Chinese buffets, the salad selection lacks. Service is good also.
Good For A Buffet. They have a large selection, and refill the food area quite often. This place gets quite busy and there's a good reason for that.
For a buffet, this place is good.
Excellent quality food, chicken balls and chow mein great, huge selection and waitresses and owner very polite and keep water glasses on the table filled. love this restaurant.
Comfortable atmosphere, great staff and service, and the quality and quantity of food is to die for, deffinatly a five star for our family and will most certainly go back again =D
It's a Buffet, what did you expect?. It's as good as a buffet gets. Lots of selections, and some different concepts for a buffet, like the dim sum stations. Perfect fast food, if you're starving and can't wait. There's are some areas that get's messed pretty bad, like the pudding and ice cream station. Also, I'm not to sure about the mayonaise base sauces that sitting by the steamwells. I just dont eat those sauces and enjoy all the other good stuff. PS, don't overstuff yourself!! You won't feel too good afterward lol.
Love the Phoenix. We go to the Phoenix pretty frequently. It gets very busy even during the week. Servers are always friendly but rushed. The food is always hot but sometimes we find they aren't quick to replace items in the buffet that run out. There is a good variety of food, it is not a massive buffet which we appreciate. My partner loves the dim sum.
Fantastic! We were there for lunch on a sunday. A good selection on the buffet at a very reasonable price. They told me lunch during Monday to Friday was even a lower price.
Salads, pizza, fries, onion rings, fried chicken as well as the typical Chinese food. The ginger beef was amazing, just a bit of a "zing". Broccoli was cooked to perfection. Didn't try the dim sum. Hubby said won ton soup was good as well as the pepper beef and beef and broccoli. I enjoyed the salad bar. Coleslaw was yummy. The chicken balls had too much batter and the spring rolls weren't deep fried long enough for my taste. Vermicelli and the thick noodles were good.
Amazing choices of desserts, all kept in a cooler. Why don't other places do this?? Ice cream choices were cherry, something with sprinkles, rainbow and several others. I liked it wasn't typical chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. I enjoyed the desserts I tried. The tarts had great insides but too much pastry, Nanaimo bars were typical, the coffee tasting one was real good as was the one with caramel.
There's not an over abundance of items, which is good. Too many choices can be a bad thing as they tend to sit too long. Items here were all fresh and replaced often. Didn't get that "sat under the heat lamp forever" taste.
There is something for almost everyone here. Decor is pleasant. Establishment and washrooms were clean, staff very friendly and helpful. One of the few restaurants where I witnessed them getting along and working as a team. Nice for a change. Keep that up!
I highly recommend this restaurant and will be back!! As a side note they do offer take out for buffet prices.
Very nice place to eat all you can Chinese resto, all food is fresh, hot & delicious, but one thing that need to pay attention - the chairs, need to be change.
Food fresh good and tasty for all you can consume buffet! Service girl awesome but way too many choices to pick from! ie the buffet. Need a prodigious appetite or better yet come back again. Big spacious venue but quiet when we were there. 20.50$ per person more than reasonable. Would go again.
Good Chinese buffet, and we got new dimsum when we arrived. Not a lot of fruit selection, but loved the egg tarts for dessert!
One of the best buffet places in Red Deer! We and our friends/family always order Chinese food takeout here as the servings are always huge, the ingredients fresh and the dishes have that distinct Chinese spicy, smoky aroma that we so love!!! Feels like we are in a Hong Kong street lined with Chinese eateries.
We love to dine here as well before the covid19 pandemic happened early 2020, now we just regularly order takeout for special occasions. Our regular orders are shrimp, fried calamaris, steamed shrimp dumplings, beef broccoli, fried chicken and fried rice. Try as well their noodles, it's so good!!!
We can't wait for the pandemic to end so we can eat here again.
Great selection of food. Trays refilled quickly and very polite efficient staff. Good value. I will certainly return.
Our family loves this place. Cozy atmosphere, delicious food, good service. This is the best buffet in Red Deer, and even better than some in Calgary
