Pretty good lunch buffet for a reasonable price. (a lot cheaper than Roanoke Chinese buffets!). Lots off variety, including American dishes such as corn pudding, fried potatoes, stuffed green peppers and motzerella cheese sticks in addition to Americanized Chinese dishes, salad bar, and desserts. Service was good and all were friendly! Has an awesome aquarium with baby starfish, but they're not in the menu! A good place for when you want to get alot to eat that's a little different.

My boyfriend took me here for a little brunch date the other day on his break from work. & to my surprise it was the BEST dining/food date I think I've EVER been on. The food = FABULOUS. SCRUMPTIOUS. THE BEST. The staff = friendly. The atmosphere = quiet but not silent, decor was so chic & made it feel fun to be there. They have exotic fish aquarium. I could go on and on but, YALL, GO TO THIS PLACE! You WON'T regret it!

I was surprised with this buffet! I had visited before and ordered a la carte and menu items. They were very good. So I tried the Buffet. Very good for the price! Steamed shrimp and mussels with available red sauce, and real HOT mustard mixed, is just awesome. They have what ever you want on the buffet including desserts. Every thing I tried was delicious. For the value here, I must give 5 stars. Try it, when you have some time to relax and enjoy. I added photos instead of listing the many choices, and there are more choices than my photos :-)

It is one of the better Chinese buffets around the Roanoke area. Never had any issues here, and the food has always been good

Food is fresh and good if you go when busy. I have noticed if it isn't too busy the food doesn't get turned over as much and isn't the best. The waitresses can be hit and miss with friendliness. The atmosphere and some of the people who go there are no so friendly. God forbid you take children to public places.

I've been coming to China Wall since I was a kid. Chinese food is a guilty pleasure! The food has always been amazing, and if I ever want more of something, it's brought out promptly. Cheap but yummy takeout and a killer buffet! I'm giving four stars because the staff isn't very friendly. They never have been! But I only go to eat, and I'll be friendly anyways!

At first glance it kinda seems small, however all the best items from a China buffet are present. Crazy good lunch special, dinner isn't too much more. Definitely worth checking out.

A friend of mine invited me to have dinner at the China Wall Buffet. Located in Lake Drive Plaza at 989 Hardy Rd in Vinton, Virginia, This buffet Chinese food restaurant is one of the most popular Chinese restaurants in the area. It is well known for its all you can eat, large selection of Chinese food, in a relaxed environment, at affordable prices. When we arrived the building housing this restaurant looked very clean and modern both on the outside front as well as in the interior of the restaurant. As we entered, the first thing we saw was a giant size fish tank with small fishes swimming around. Then there was a take out station where customers had the option of grabbing a to go container, fill it up, pay for it, and take it home, to enjoy eating there. Then there was the cashier counter behind which an older Chinese lady was seated, concentrated on looking at a computer screen, and ignoring everything around her, including the customers who had just walked in the restaurant. No welcome, no greeting, no eye contact, no smile. I'm not sure if she was the owner, or what role did she play in the restaurant. As we waited there for someone to take us to our table, a Hispanic young lady server came out, greeted us with a smile, asked us what we wanted to drink, and took us to our table. The dining area and the area where the buffet was placed was very clean, and most of the great variety of the items there looked fresh and were warm and ready to enjoy. We both got a plate and filled them up with the items we wanted from the buffet. It was nice that every item was labeled as to what it was. We sat down and comfortably enjoyed our meal. Everything tasted delicious. Our server came by with refills of our drinks which were iced Dr. Pepper drinks. We then went to the Dessert station and had some desserts and I made sure to also take a fortune cookie. We then tipped our server and my friend went to pay the bill at the counter. As we were leaving, I made sure to day Thank you in Chinese to the lady behind the counter and got her to smile.

Not a bad place, the closest Chinese restaurant near where I live. I like it better than my husband, who usually only gets the General Tso's and complained that the sauce was too sweet and overpowering and the chunks of chicken too big. I do have to agree with him that they are very saucy, but just tell them "light sauce" and they do comply. I usually go there for lunch and order off the menu. Yes, you can get the buffet by the pound to go but that would cost a lot, I would think, and ordering off the menu is fresher, pretty fast and made to order. The prices are good, $5 total will get you a big plate of wonderfulness. The Roast Pork in Garlic sauce is good, if a bit too saucy (again, need to remember to ask them to lighten that up next time) and loaded with vegetables. A plus for them on their roast pork -- it's sliced right off the tenderloin in chunks and not thin strips like most Chinese restaurants. Their buffet seems very popular but again, they are the closest thing around. Asian Buffet (see my other review) has closed -- again. Don't know what is up with those people. Ordering from the menu for takeout is better, cheaper, made-to-order, but this is how I always order, I've eaten the buffet once and I'm not a fan of them, so you'd have to try it yourself. Lunch Buffet is $5.49, Dinner $8.49 as of this writing. To go is $3.50/lb for lunch, $4.50/lb for dinner.
