What started off as an attempt to try a new burger joint (another attempt will be made soon), ended up landing us across the street from the Highland Theatre, at the Cleveland Wok.
While my fiance has been here before, and has been pestering, uh....., I mean, requesting, that we go here, I had yet to try it out. The interior is nothing to speak of, and the buffet is a relatively small affair along one end of the dining area. However, anything that says "all you can eat" has a way of drawing me in, and at $8.25 a person, I was pleasantly surprised with the food. We tried a bit of everything, and it was well worth the stop.
I especially liked the potstickers, and got them with each plateful of food. The hot and spicy chicken with fried rice and the mushrooms in oyster sauce added on top was a very flavorful dish. We also had the green beans in the garlic or black bean sauce nearly every time.
The food isn't necessarily the freshest you'll find, or of the widest selection, but it was quite good, and we really appreciated how each dish was distinctly different than the others. At several of the chinese buffets we have been to, many of the meat dishes end up tasting just like the meat dish next to it. Not so here, with each of the meat-based dishes having different flavors that were specific to that dish.

Overall, we both left feeling full and satisfied, and it was a nice change of pace to go to an area that we don't always get around to.
