Reviews for Cafe East 8 Chinese Buffet (Mission Bend) in Houston, TX

Everything was great except for one thing. I don't like to pull the heads off of boiled shrimp. Good thing my son was with me... and April the heads off for me lol. So I give it a 5 star Read more

I bought some soup and had to change the soup because there was a big black fly, I told the staff if she could change the soup... so I could get a new one, she said “there was no chef”. at the end I was going to pay for my soup and apparently I can’thave no food in my soup like what??? Even though the soup has LITERALLY onions and vegetables. Anyways, I will NEVER ever becoming back again!! Y’all should definitely check out hibachi grill, it’s mad clean and really good staff.

I actually went here only once,but this lovely waitress(she said her name is Sherry) left an impression on me,she was so kind... and attentive that I wish I lived closer,I would for sure come back for that service and food! Read more

Was a little hesitant based on prior reviews, but glad I came! This no-frills chinese buffet has hit-or-miss specialty... items/seafood, but the "chinese takeout" fare is solid and provides a lot of value! Celery chicken is good, the General Tso'smeat-to-batter ratio is very fair, and the string beans are decent. It is unfair to compare this place to a high-class buffet,but it is equally unfair to say it is one of those "health hazard" places too. If your goal is to fill up on chinese takeout,this is your place! Read more

Very good food selection and food is fresh. Nice staff.

Food was great.. Terrible restroom, they can do better. I would love to eat here all the time and give them 5stars but the... restroom messed everything up. They can change the water closets Read more

I didn't have great expectations come here other than that previous reviews are read, the only items that I like that we're... fresh where the real beef, I believe it was onions bell peppers and beef tasted okay the fruit was fresh and so it was okay Ihave some hot tea and hot water along with it, the broccoli was fresh, I didn't really care for the wonton soup except for thebroth and that was it, the noodles did not taste fresh to me, the rice might have been okay,??? Rice does not stay fresh inLexington side of cooker for it's covered with plastic but I was turned off by some of the food that was not fresh? I tried apizza or slice of pizza that look like it just had melted shredded cheese on it and one piece of pepperoni on it was not cookedenough all the way through to begin with, the egg drop soup was probably okay, any of the dishes with meat and vegetables suchas bell peppers and onions is going to be okay, My guest liked noodles, There's only sugar and pink artificial sweetener, foryou diabetics you may want to bring your own, I don't care for the NutraSweet to begin with, give me the yellow blue or thegreen package stuff any day with some hot tea and some lemons. but there's no honey here, Read more

Food is fresh, most of the chicken is incredibly tender. The ribs were tender but not very sticky with sweet glaze. Kung pao... chicken was great, ditto Gerneal Tzou's chicken, loved the sauteed mushrooms, hot and sour soup and the chocolate icream wasmore flaverful than most soft serve. Service was friendly, place very clean as were the restrooms. Read more
