New Century Buffet - El Cajon

Typical Chinese buffet experience. Service was excellent, food was tasty except for the gritty brocolli... Not sure if it was just my scoop or what. Facility was clean.

I've been seeing this restaurant for the last few years but never stopped in. I've been looking for a decent buffet since the Hometown Buffet left. The Golden Corral just doesn't fit our likes, but that's another story.Today, my wife and I stopped off at the New Century Buffet and were greeted by Aida. We went to pay to get in but she said we eat first and pay later. This took us back a little. Who does that anymore?The food was Asian and it was great. We will definitely be going back.One caveat though. Don't waste your food there. They charge $8 and something for wasted food. Great idea!!! I've seen too much waste at the Golden Corral.Our special thanks to Aida. Parking: We didn't count the spaces but ample.

Like the restaurant but compared to another Buffett we go to this places food is relatively bland and not great. But for 20$ for dinner it’s understandable

Food was awesome, staff removed all used plated in timely matter.

The meal was very good and fresh and was kept fresh on the plates. Everything was restocked regularly. If you are a senior citizen you must tell them when you come in because they can't tell from your grey hair. The charge for hot tea is exorbitant.And not included with your dinner price. The variety that was available was very good. The weight staff was very responsive and cleared used plates quickly. The facility is spacious and adequately handles a large number of people.
