I like 'The Mandarin.' It is a great Chinese Buffet place. Man, they
got everything. AND great desserts. Very polite servers, and the
girls and guys keeping up with filling the buffet are great. They are
mostly Chinese people working there. They've also got a nice brook
deal at the front where there are many different kinds of fish
swimming.
I also like 'The Swiss Chalet.' Pretty reasonable in price. The
chicken is pretty good, but their dipping sauce is outstanding.
Now these two restaurants are not exactly 3 Michelin stars, but they
are local and decent. You get what you pay for.
