A Golden Standard

Crestview, known as the “Hub City” of Northwest Florida, is also home to Golden Buffet. The only Asian buffet restaurant in the area, Golden Buffet has become a star in the local dining scene. Stunning foodies with its mouthwatering selection, the restaurant’s offerings range from Chinese and Japanese cuisine to Thai cuisine. A spacious party room, capable of seating over 100 people, is perfect for meetings and celebrations.

The two stone lions at the sides of the entrance of Golden Buffet fit in well with the traditional theme, and also function to welcome guests as they walk up to the restaurant. Stepping into Golden Buffet, a rockery waterfall comes into sight, styled after the famous Wuyi Mountain in China’s Fujian province. However, this is just the beginning as the staff dress in traditional Chinese clothing and a sea of red lanterns hang inside the restaurant. 
  
Naturally, the restaurant also features great selections on its seafood bar. One of the most popular is Seafood Delight, a delightful mix of shrimp, crab meat, scallop, snow peas, white broccoli, and celery.

The other dishes also do quite well. The exquisite Barbeque Roll, Spring Roll, and the elaborate Coconut Shrimp/Chicken are just some of the most popular dishes. Another must-try item is the Baked Crab Meat & Cheese, which is one of the chef’s signature dishes. The quality crab meat, mingled with sliced celery and onion, is first baked for ten minutes. Then, the combo is sprinkled with cheese, and then baked for another five minutes before being presented to the customers.

Keeping in line with the owner’s emphasis on healthy dining, dishes are prepared with no MSG and little salt and oil. As a fusion restaurant that deals with Thai cuisine, Golden Buffet’s sophisticated chefs are also adept at preparing Thai dishes. Some customer favorites include Pad Thai, Spicy Relish, and Spicy Cabbage.

Rounding out the offerings is a hibachi bar. Customers first order their favorite ingredients then the chef will make the dishes upon orders with their superior culinary skills. Another bar that attracts many diners is the sushi bar, where diners can watch the chefs make the appealing and appetizing sushi items, such as Crunchy Shrimp, as well as Spicy Tuna, Smoke Salmon. Besides, the vegans are glad to find that there are also some kinds of delicious vegetable rolls.

At Golden Buffet, the patrons keep on coming back partly due to the friendly staff. Chong Chen, the owner, is also good friends with many patrons, often inviting them to the restaurant to hold parties together. There is a comment card on every table at Golden Buffet, for customers to write down their valuable feedback.

Every weekend, kids under 9 years old can have free meals when dining with paying adults. Golden Buffet is a kids’ friendly restaurant, where the kids are encouraged to order something healthy, Sweet & Sour Chicken, Barbecued Chicken, and fruit salads, for example. For the old, Steamed Vegetables and Fried Salmons are their favorite options, while for youngsters, sushi and hibachi bars attract them the most. Besides, Soldiers receive a 20% discount each Thursday.
