About This Place

Located in the heart of Yuba City, Tasty Buffet offers an exceptional all-you-can-eat dining experience that masterfully blends American and Chinese cuisines. This unassuming gem at 840 Gray Ave might catch you off guard from the outside, but stepping inside reveals a clean, welcoming environment where fresh and vibrant flavors come alive, making it a true haven for food lovers.

The buffet boasts an impressive array of dishes designed to excite every palate. From tender, flavorful BBQ ribs and a crisp, refreshing salad bar to seafood delights like Salt and Pepper Shrimp, succulent Crawfish, and perfectly fried Baby French Bread, the variety here is vast and satisfying. Not to be missed are their impeccable Chinese staples — think crispy Orange Chicken, savory Chow Mein, and delicate Pot Stickers. Sushi aficionados will delight in the assortment offered at the sushi buffet, including fresh Mini Sushi Rolls and Assorted Sushi options.

The sensory experience extends beyond the main courses: the Seafood Delight Tostada bursts with flavor, while the Sour and Spicy Soup offers a warm, comforting kick. For dessert, indulge your sweet tooth with classics like Apple Pie and unique treats such as tapioca pudding, complemented perfectly by the self-serve ice cream bar where you can top your cone or bowl with a variety of fun toppings.

Guests frequently praise the staff for their attentiveness and warm hospitality, enhancing the overall peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Amy Clawson expressed surprise at the quality and freshness of the food, highlighting that she enjoyed trying new dishes she had never sampled before, ranging from sushi to Mongolian BBQ. George Dunn captured the essence of this buffet perfectly, describing it as "the all you can eat restaurant of your greatest dreams and imagination," filled with mouthwatering seafood and authentic Chinese flavors.

Though tucked away in a modest strip mall where a Kmart once stood, regular visitors like Tracy Byrd remind us not to judge the restaurant by its exterior. The carefully maintained interior, coupled with attentive owners who personally welcome diners, creates a food haven that continually draws locals back. Luis Vazquez also appreciated the constant replenishment of dishes and the convenience of a quality buffet without the lengthy drive out of town.

Whether you're craving crispy fried shrimp, zesty General Tso’s chicken, or freshly prepared sushi, Tasty Buffet covers a remarkable culinary spectrum with dedication and flavor. It’s more than a meal—it’s a warm, inviting experience that captures the best of both American and Chinese buffet traditions in Yuba City.

    This restaurant is the "all you can eat restaurant" of your greatest dreams and imagination, with seafood specialties like oysters on the half shell and crab cake, fish, crab salad, and all the yummy Chinese food specialties to boot. And if that isn't enough, there's desserts like tapioca and other puddings, and to top it all off, "Self Serve ice cream" with a cone or a bowl and the toppings of your choice! WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DREAM COME TRUE. The atmosphere is perfect for a cordial family "sit down" and visit with all the yummy tummy foods that you can imagine! Thank you so much to the owners and the staff for this beautiful place.

    Its not very often we are 99% impressed and happy with a restaurant these days. This one doesnt look great from the outside, but inside is nice, clean and quiet. Staff was amazing. And the food was all hot, fresh, and tasted good. I even tried alot of things I never had before and there wasn't much I didnt like. From sushi to seafood, Mongolian BBQ and desserts. It was all tasty. Its in yuba city, but you gotta try it. And, its a reasonably priced buffet. 2 people, 2 drinks and all you can eat, was only $40. I almost never have a good experience when we try new places. But this one left nothing to complain about.
