About Chinatown Buffet
Chinatown Buffet is a chinese buffet in Champaign, Illinois. It is listed at 713 W Marketview Dr, Champaign, IL 61822, which places it among the local businesses of Champaign that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Champaign; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Illinois are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 11 am–9 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Chinatown Buffet at (217) 398-9888; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions.
Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 1,963 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

The place was pretty dated; the food was mid. The tags above the food did not match. And there were no tags in the sushi area to tell what was what. The best thing there was probably the soft serve ice cream. Hadn't been there in like over 10 years. Myself and my friend with her three children one 9-year-old, a 5 and 6 year old went. It cost us $80 and some change for the buffet. I was quite surprised. But we will not be going again. Kids barely eat anything. Nothing like how it used to be.

Chinatown buffet exceeded my expectations. This was my first time visiting, and I was pleasantly surprised with the food, the service, and the atmosphere. The server was very prompt for refills and empty plate removal. I'm usually a very picky eater, and my plates were empty every time. With great taste and hot food, this is a no-brainer to come back and eat. Definitely give this place a try.

It’s nice to have a large Chinese buffet option in Champaign. The food is good and there is a large selection. My little boy loves to come here and try different things. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. The building is older and could use some updates, but it is always clean when we have visited.

A nice place to get Chinese buffet in town. They have a variety of food you can have. It's decent quality. Their sweet bar is quite alright as well. The service here is very nice. They fill your glass and pick up all dishes very fast. The atmosphere is okay.
