China Bear

We used to enjoy going to China Bear, mostly for the crab legs on the buffet. Not only do they no longer serve them there, the quality of food has gone down hill. The green beans still had the strings, the cream cheese in the sushi was bad and my husband wouldn't go in the men's room again after seeing the condition, 2 urinals not functioning and greasy slippery floors. We both were ill after eating there. No longer worth the drive or money.

Great buffet, beautiful & clean atmosphere have bought family & friends, A favorite place to go!

I absolutely love China Bear. It is an inexpensive buffet that really is your money's worth. The exterior of the place is fascinating. There's beautiful koi fish everywhere. Who ever bred them did an absolute wonderful job because there are over hundreds and they're all beautiful. Now onto the gift shop... They sell little knick knacks from jewelry to beautiful wooden structures. Granted it's not the best quality gift shop, but what do you expect. They're always interested finds like little crystals, chinese robs, and nice paintings. And lastly they're bamboo plants and bonsai plants are one of the best quality ones I can find in all of Houston. They're inexpensive and yet nicely grown and groomed. Every time I go I'm urged to buy another one lol. This restaurant is huge and so if their buffet options. They have lots of foods, from sushi, stir fry, crawfish, and now oysters. I went the other day and they're oysters were literally the biggest oysters I have ever seen. The food I personally think is delicious. It's not fancy, creative, and gourmet, but it's good, homey food. They have delicious mac n' cheese, green beans, fish, and more. People just need to understand that this isn't meant to be a five star restaurant. it's meant to be a family styled buffet that offers a bang for your buck. For less than twenty dollars per person, everyone is full and happy. There's even ice cream and desserts. China Bear is worth it and delicious, and I will stand by it forever because not only are my children and husband happy, my wallet is. Now the only cons I would say is the service. Most are Asian and cannot speak English very well, but all they do is give you your drink and occasionally fill it up. The food is all self- served, so I personally don't think their service is anything to cry about.

It cost $40 for two people to eat. It is a large buffet but the selection is slim. The food is old and the service is slow.

There is a wide range of food that tastes great. There is plenty of seafood to satisfy you.
