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.

Typical Chinese buffet. The soup and appetizer selection is one of the best I've seen. If you are a sushi person this is your place; they have a large selection. Nothing extraordinary but not bad either. You have to ask your server for ice cream f you wan t it for dessert.

This place is dirty food is fair at best. you get what you pay for. I wish I had read the reviews first. The heath department needs to shut this dump down.

In terms of sushi buffets, this is probably near the bottom of the list. That being said, I LOVE sushi and eating it buffet style is sometimes the only financially viable way to do it. And there was nothing wrong with this sushi per se, just wasn't amazing and I've been to a lot of great sushi buffets. It was really cheap for dinner and the food was all fine (and again i stress, all I can eat.) Most of their rolls had some sort of cream cheese in it though, so watch out if you're not into that. Could have done with some miso or udon! They let you add on all you can eat crab legs for an additional 15 or 20 dollars I think. I probably wouldn't come back here considering how many good restaurants (especially seafood restaurants) there are in Hilton Head.

While visiting Hiltonhead we decided to try this place. We arrived around 3pm. The young lady informed us that dinner started at 430, but we could look to see if we wanted to eat at that time. She also told us that the things that where on the bar were not going to be replenished due to the change over for dinner. So we decided to come back at 430 when the fresh food would be available. After returning we decided on 2 all you can eat crab legs @ $29.95 buffet included and 2 buffets with crabs 1 serving. @ $19.95. Now here's why I gave them 2 stars. The sign reads....ALL YOU CAN EAT CRABLEGS.... 1st the crab legs are not on the bar. They bring them to you. 1st plates brought to us had 2 clusters for the all you can eat and 1 cluster for the single serve. 2nd -5th plates only had one cluster. My husband decided to quit because the more you asked for they brought less and less to you and also took there time to bring you the crabs. My son asked for a 6th plate after the waitress brought out this plate she brought us the check. My son wasn't done but it appeared that they where done giving him crabs. All you can eat means exactly what it says. The sign doesn't say all we will let you eat. Overall the food on the bar wasn't bad but wasn't the best I've had. I definitely will not ever order crab legs here ever again.

Worst sushi ever. Sushi fell apart and sub par at best. Pad Thai is the worst I have ever had. Manager tried to say that everyone makes Pad Thai different and it all depends on how you like it... Ummm no. Noodles and chicken that taste like their boiled with no sauce, veggies or taste in general is not a version of Pad Thai. It's just bad. Service was awful. So disappointed... Typically, I wouldn't say avoid a place, but AVOID this establishment. Update: the little bit that I did eat made me sick:( up all night. Such a bad choice for dinner:(

Absolutely worst restaurant I've eaten in a long time. Weird location, horrible service. Did not eat buffet, ordered from the kitchen and found hair in two of three dishes and they tried to tell us to pay for our meals. God awful.
(1)Anthony B.
Very good. Ease of ordering online and quick delivery. This Chinese is a good place to order. We had chicken broccoli, general tso, crispy honey chicken all were good and they separated items so crispy chicken and sauce stayed crispy during delivery. Will order again from this place.
(3)Jay M.
Oh gosh. The chicken was so bad I could not eat it. Grayish in color. The worst fried rice. I didn't think it was possible to mess up fried rice but now I know it is. The rice had a gel-like appearance. MSG'd all over it? I encourage you to avoid this place. So many great places on HHI. This is not one of them. I hope they can turn it around and succeed by serving good Asian food.
(1)Amy B.
Very average food. Sushi bar is adequate but lacking in flavor. Nothing spectacular but ok for the price $12 adult, $8 children's dinner buffet. Server was very friendly.
(3)Thomasina S.
The steamed dumplings are divine!

PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE EVER!!!! We had a cockroach join us for dinner on our table. We were mortified. My husband and I were physically ill the whole night last night. We're on the island for vacation and were looking for someplace close to our hotel to grab a bite and stumbled into this place. The waitress didn't even get upset or show very much emotion about the roach crawling across the table either. We fled as fast as we could. Please Don't Eat here!!!
(1)Nancy M.
Lots to choose from the buffet. However, their food was just ok, at best! No seasonings on the food I had, just blah tasting! I love coconut shrimp... Not here! Plus floor around the buffet was slippery!l

We were visiting Hilton Head Island, we went on a Monday night around 7:00 pm for dinner, it was Memorial Day, not busy which should have been our first clue not to eat here. The sushi was very sparse and just ok, not great. Almost of the food was below average - not great. Would not eat here again. Service was very good, and attentive.
(1)Nebuchadnezzar Z.
On a scale of 1-10 I would give this place a 2. I will grant the place that we ate on a Sunday around 1, after most of the lunch buffet was over and old. And it sure tasted like it. EVERY serving was basically a few scraps of leftovers. We asked if they were going to bring more fresh food out and we were told yes, but the only thing they updated in the hour or so we were there was the lo mein. I sure did not trust eating from the raw seafood bar, not on a Sunday and after seeing the rest of the buffet. Do yourself a huge favor....keep driving..
(1)Nick R.
I'm not a sushi kind of guy, but when I hear about a good Chinese buffet I'm right there! So when I found Vari Asian on Yelp during our visit to Hilton Head Island I was looking forward to trying it. We arrived a few minutes after 5 on a Friday afternoon and there were only two other customers, never a good sign. But we decided to give it a try anyway and were very glad we did. The hot & sour soup was very tasty, the friend rice was excellent, and everything else on the buffet table was very good. Service was fast and friendly. We'll only be here a week, but we're going to try to get back again before we leave.
(5)Peyton C.
Crab meat wontons are really good. I ordered chicken fried rice and thought it was disgusting, the chicken did not taste like any type of meat! But prices are reasonable and I will go back...(only for the wontons)
(3)Stu-Kate M.
We don't have a lot options for Asian buffets on the island, but don't consider this one. The food isn't at all fresh, the sushi is awful (yes, it's a buffet, but even so it's nauseating), the environment is dirty and noisy. There are great places to get good Japanese, Thai, and sushi very close by, don't waste your time.
(1)Cullen P.
I love this place. Inexpensive. Great bar. $8.95 for all you can eat sushi bar lunch! If you want good sushi and service and not in the mood to spend a lot for food on hhi, this is the place.
(5)Daniel W.
Amazing experience! Went here with my boyfriend while on vacation. We were staying at Red Roof Inn next door and took a chance. Could not believe what we got for a 12.99 buffet! The food was delicious and the selection was great. Was pleasantly surprised to find salmon and fresh fruit in addition to the usual things like seafood, sushi, dim sum, and Chinese foods. The waitress was absolutely wonderful - pleasant, smiling, courteous - a natural who made us feel very comfortable. Everyone we spoke to was extremely friendly, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our requests. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

I rarely post a review but had to tonight. After I saw a cockroach run across the sushi buffet bar I looked more closely at the carpet and floor areas. A number of areas were filthy especially the carpet meeting the tiled area by the food. I hate to think of what the kitchen looks like. Outside the building I saw a large rodent trap.
(1)Kerri S.
We were really wanting some good sushi but this did not deliver. Sushi had been sitting for awhile, and the sauces had been out so long it was hard and discolored on top. Only thing for my picky kids was weird colored peaches and jello. We payed way too much to eat a whole lot of nothing. Our waitress was nice.
(2)Judy YuWah L.
Went on a sunday night. There were barely any people. Buffet was not good. The buffet food were dry. The egg rolls were extra oily. Had the hot and sour soup. It taste good but there was meat in it. They had dim sum. Majority of the sushi rolls had cream cheese and the sushi wasn't fresh. The drinks were very watered down and they took a long time to make them. The waitress was nice. She offered to serve ice cream. The one thing that irritated me was the manager. He kept asking me what kind of asian am I and if I'm really asian!! Plus I overheard him told one of his co workers that I speak cantonese, even though he was on the other side of the room. I highly don't recommend this place since the buffet food wasn't so great!! Also they need new management!!
(2)Ryan E.
Great restaurant! The server was very nice and considerate. The food was cooked well and the sushi was much better than any buffet-sushi we've had before. Also, the food temperature seemed to be well maintained which is important for a buffet.
(4)Lisa M.
This is a hidden jewel on Hilton Head Island. My family voted this the best Asian buffet we have ever visited. Beautiful decor, exceptionally clean, and amazing food. You can tell everything is made fresh. The sushi bar is nothing short of incredible. The wait staff was excellent. We will definitely be back.
(5)Dreama B.
I thought the food was great. Good variety, hot and fresh. What was a really nice surprise was our waitress, who was super friendly and perfectly attentive and genuinely happy to be at work.
(5)Arnold C.
We went on a Friday night around 6pm. Wasn't very crowded and the food was good. We ate the buffet and it's a pretty good spread. $12.95 for regular dinner buffet (no crab legs). There are several sections of food: Sushi and sashimi (pretty fresh) Assorted Chinese food (decent) fried foods (not so good) fruits and vegetables (pretty good) desserts (good). Service was outstanding. Our server immediately came to get our drink order when we were seated and had our drinks on our table before we returned from the bufffet. She constantly came by to take our dirty dishes and even went to get the kids ice cream for dessert.
(4)Robin F.
We ordered delivery and were so disappointed. The ribs were mushy and very greasy (could not eat). The egg rolls had stringy vegetables and the entrée we ordered had some sliced beef the was so tough that it could not be chewed. Complete waste of money. Should have ordered pizza!!!
(1)Sean W.
Delicious food, great sushi selection, my favorite is the cream cheese wontons would recommend This place has great prices to!
(4)Kevin R.
I was looking for somewhere that had some decent oysters and sushi at a good price and found this place by accident while driving around looking for somewhere to eat. I went in and checked out the buffet and it had just what I was looking for so I decided to give it a try and I am so happy I did. My wife and son were with me and they said they enjoyed it too. The oysters and sushi were fresh even though the place was not crowded, and the service was great. I definitely plan to go back again whenever I'm in Hilton Head.

Good value for the food on Hilton Head Island. Not a huge Asian buffet, but looks nice and clean. We went there for lunch, $8.5 for adult, $7.9 for 2 chilldren. Very reasonable price for the food you can get. There was a sushi bar with about 20 different kinds of sushi and rolls for lunch and several Japanese salads such as seaweed salad. Sushi is not bad for buffet sushi, enough special rolls to eat. There was a whole buffet table of Chinese food, nothing especially good, typical Chinese buffet food. The hot and sour soup was really good compare with the ones I had before in buffets. There was Miso soup too. Different kinds of Dim Sum, not bad. Overall, this place is pretty good for lunch and dinner for the price you pay on the island. Very inexpensive and valuable. I will go there again next time when I visit here.
(3)Barry G.
Probably the best value on the Island. We only had the dinner buffet, which for the most part was very good and very reasonable ($12.95), There is a chinese section and a sushi/sashimi section. The Hot and Sour Soup was among the best I have ever had at a buffet. There is a large assortment of dim sum, but most are mediocre. The pot stickers were very good. We had lots of sushi and sashimi and all was fresh and very good. The chinese entrees on the buffet were also very good but be aware that the spicey dishes are actually spicey. Overall, we were very satisified.
(4)Anna W.
Chinese food, meh. Sushi, amazing! The fish tastes so fresh!
(4)Abby R.
Went on a Sunday evening around 7pm and had the buffet. Most of the sushi roll platters were empty - those remaining were mostly crab stick with cream cheese - not what I came for. A lot of the Chinese dishes were questionable, not sure what the chicken really was. The potstickers were excellent, although pretty dried out. The spring roll was very tasty, but more than slightly greasy. The service was outstanding. For a buffet, not bad, but I wouldn't go back.
(2)He M.
Oh my god yes! High quality, very diverse selection, and super inexpensive buffet! Save room for the awesome dessert selection too: ice-cream, cakes, fruits...
(5)Cassy T.
Good, fresh food, nice people!
(4)Ryan W.
Good Asian food. We ordered the Mongolian Beef, the Chin's Spicy Chicken and the Crispy Honey Walnut Shrimp. We also had an order of Hot and Sour Soup. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The Mongolian Beef was by far my favorite, followed by the Shrimp. While we ordered carry-out, the buffet looked wonderful and well-stocked. Would definitely recommend this place.

We had a wonderful dinner at the nearby Fujiama while vacationing, but rather than make a return visit we settled for Vari Asian instead. What a mistake. We went on a Sunday afternoon @ 1:00 as it was less than a mile from our hotel. The buffet looked like something you'd expect to see 20 minutes before closing on a weekday. Most of the sushi plates were completely empty- one even had a singular roll w/ a singular human hair laying out on display next to it. Fast forward to the bill, we noticed a larger charge than the 8.95 lunch price advertised on a cheap dry erase board at the entrance. The waitress told us that Sunday was dinner all day. What? I asked to talk to the manager about the poor advertising on their part. Out comes a very young "manager". He says the same thing and I tell him maybe he should change his board to show the one price for the day. He said he couldn't because it was permanent marker. Wow. I tell him that as a manager he might want to make that more clear for future customers as one doesn't assume a dinner price. Then he says he's not concerned because no one else has complained before and it was on the board (which was true, I admit, but easy to miss) . This is where it hit a nerve. No sorry, offer for a discount, nothing. I told him we would never return. His response was, "Well, we're closing anyway, so don't worry." What does that mean?!? Anyway, I am assuming others must know it sucks as well and he was informing this place is closing down permanently. Or, at least, one can only hope.

Awesome Asian buffet...shrimp, sushi, mussels, oysters, dim sum, plus a wide assortment of entres, salad. Dessert choices were minimal, but after all of the rest, who cares? Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
