Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

I am not ashamed to admit I am a sucker for gorging myself in greasy Asian buffet... and this one is my favorite. They aren't shy on the garlic and brown sauce so everything's extra savory. They have your standard fare; beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken, lo mein, but they also have what the others don't offer... dim sum and stuffed shrimp my two favorite poo poo platter treats. Their Rangoon is not heavy on crab fishy kind, but more the sweet cream cheese kind. I'm not ashamed to say I like both kinds equally and for different reasons. The desert and sushi is a bit blah and I usually skip over it, but they do the main dishes so well I wouldn't save room for it anyway.

*NOTE: The primary reason this place gets an actual 5 star rating is for their fried catfish... IT IS TO DIE FOR!!!! It seriously might be the best fried catfish I've ever had... Ever. Not kidding! :D So, I reluctantly tried this buffet the other day... Sure it would suck... And to my surprise the food is actually good for the price ($7 lunch buffet!) and the options actually contained real seafood (one entrée called Seafood Delight containing squid, shrimp, and imitation crab meat... Also baked buffer fish & the aforementioned catfish... Mmmmm). The service is quick and attentive. The interior is a little drab but I couldn't really stop gorging myself long enough to take long/hard look at it, lol. Other items that were great on the buffet line were: Their springrolls... Yum. Their pizza (is better than most I've had at other Chinese all you can eat joints)... Their green beans... Perfection. I'm so glad this place is so close to my new home :D Another cool note is their dinner price for buffet is the same as most places prices for LUNCH! Try 'em out, you'll like 'em. Nuff said.

Bad... used to be our favorite spot. We used to come here when it was new and was my grandma's favorite place. It had an amazing buffet back in the day great selection. It's a cheap place but chances of food poisoning is pretty up there. They do not want you to waste ANYTHING! And you realize this when you get a stale piece of meat that could count as stone by the time you get it. I felt like a kid again with a plate of food I didn't want but was forced to eat it. Food is for looking not eating haha but seriously they will wait until something is completely eaten it doesn't matter on age before they trade it out for something new. If you want the buffet to be fresh you have to go when the place is full and the nasty stuff is eaten blegh

Buffet for $7,45, very cheap, good food and good location. I really recommend it. Excellent place for who is looking for price and quality.

Really let down by the ratings here yelpers....don't get me wrong, I agree that it's a good value for $8..... but seriously guys, the inside looks like it's falling apart and the only background music was the sound of glum looking people shoveling food into their mouths. The food isn't terrible, but it's mostly just designed to fill you up...Spaghetti noodles, rice, deep-fried bits of meat, no veggies to speak of... average tasting would be generous.......5 stars? Give me a break.

5 stars on a buffet scale of course. But still. Everything was hot, fresh, the right texture, and by golly, they had oysters on the half shell (yes, super fresh!) We went expecting it to be terrible, but it was really very good. Best egg drop soup around. Not much for salad, but who goes to the buffet for salad? We went on sunday afternoon, a good time to go apparently. Anyways good and cheap and fresh. Have at it ween bags.

It's a very basic buffet. No grill service here. The owners are nice and the food is fine, so if you just need a quick, cheap bite, it's fine.

I have tried most of the Chinese buffets in ABQ and I always return to Main Chinese. While it is not a high-end restaurant catering to the pretentious,the food is consistently very good and at proper temperature and the service is friendly. The decor could use a makeover but I don't go there for the ambiance. Main Chinese is my go to place for Chinese.

Selection was limited, but everything was excellent! Good atmosphere, friendly service, among the best Chinese I have ever had.

Main Chinese Buffet... It can't be that bad because the parking lot is always full, right? Using that logic I decide to go for it. Walking past the windows decorated with festive scribbles of white paint (compliments of local gangs) I push open the heavy door... It's the middle of the day but inside the restaurant it's rather dark, which I decide is probably a good idea. A pleasant waitress seats me at a booth where I have a nice view of a huge 2009 calendar hanging at an odd angle behind the cash register. After she takes my drink order I head for the buffet, which consists of about 3 tables of food. Vicious steam pours from each pan when the lids are lifted, making sure you don't hold onto the serving utensils any longer than necessary. Reading the helpful handwritten labels (Broccoli Chicken, Broccoli Beef, Chicken) I take some vegetable lo mein & a few steamed dumplings that look as if they've been waiting a long, long time for someone to choose them. Taking my plate back to the booth I try the lo mein noodles which have been cooked so long that I am not required to actually chew them. The broccoli has been reduced to a sad faded green and rests limply next to the leathery dumplings. I wonder if the dumplings just need to rest a bit in soy sauce...or maybe not, since I am now trying to bite into one and it seems to be some sort of dumpling-jerky. And what the hell...is that Jimmy Dean sausage I taste in the filling? An old man shuffles past my booth using an unusually large walking stick to keep his balance. He heads toward the restroom...I hope to shower and shave because he obviously hasn't done so in several days. I get up and head to the dessert table, which offers a sad collection of jello cubes, orange slices, canned chocolate pudding, and chunks of banana swimming in a watery red sauce. Then I spot the tapioca pudding! Yay! I take the enormous spoon for the tapioca and dip into the gluey mass of lumpiness. I have a hard time pulling the spoon out...it reminds me of the many cartoons I watched as a kid where someone becomes more and more entangled in glue. The tapioca stretches with frightening strength as I draw the spoon toward my plate. I glump a token amount on my plate, then surround it with 2 cubes of red jello (oh please let it be cherry, because I hate strawberry) and a very chewy macaroon which has to be pried from the parchment paper it's glued to. I carry this fine dessert plate to my booth and try the jello. It's strawberry. The unshaven man has left but is now coming back into the restaurant and again making his way to the restroom. I decide this is not a good sign, especially since he just ate there, right? I get up and head for the cash register to pay. The cashier is able to hold the phone against her shoulder and continue the heated argument she's having with someone...I assume her boyfriend...while taking my money. Not wanting to act like I'm listening, I study the 2009 calendar with its border of faded Chinese New Year animals, resisting the extremely strong urge to reach over and straighten it. She smiles, gives me my change and goes back to her argument. I never did see that man come out of the restroom.

Don't recommend this place. We called ahead to check on closing and food availability. They lied and barely had any food. We asked if they where putting more out and they have as an attitude because they where closing at 820pm when they supposedly closed at10pm. They ripped us off and asked for a discount and still charged us $18 for 2 when we had one plate of mad Chinese crunchy rice and nasty chicken.. Don't go here!
