About Chen's Mongolian Buffet

Chen's Mongolian Buffet is a chinese restaurant in State College, Pennsylvania. It is listed at 1880 S Atherton St, State College, PA 16801, which places it among the local businesses of State College 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 State College; 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 Pennsylvania 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.

One of the best places in State College! Amazing food. Very underrated, I wish I knew this long before.

My son asked to go here for his birthday meal. He’s a regular but it was my first time here in years. I won’t take so long to come back!! The buffet allows for many different combinations of veggies and meat in each dish. I particularly enjoyed the fried rice and shrimp that I made my second time through the line. Added some bean sprouts and broccoli as well as some sweet teriyaki sauce. Really good stuff. My first dish included pork but they also have beef and chicken available. They also have some sushi and desserts on the buffet. The price for the buffet is very reasonable. Only $13.25. It’s a great bargain for a good buffet.

This was my first visit to Chen’s. The food was really good and the service was good. The building seems a little run down and that would be my only negative. There are lots of options and it’s an all you can eat buffet for a reasonable price (less than $15 per person). I will visit again.

It’s the first time we ate at this Mongolian Buffet. It was very good. The vegetables and meats were fresh and filled with regularity ; variety of seasonings and sauces ; clean and organized. Once you fill your plate, The food is cooked and delivered by the waitress. This is more like 4.5 stars. The price is excellent for the quality and quantity. Finally- they dont serve alcohol but they have no problem With BYOB .

From the outside this place looks sketchy, Then you walk through the doors to a pleasant surprise. I guess it’s true when they say you cannot judge a book by it’s cover. The selection of food is quite extensive and the flavors are great. You choose everything from the noodles to the vegetables, meat and sauce(s). You get to experiment and create your own flavor. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful if you need some assistance to get things started. All in all it is a great place to get a good meal in a safe and friendly environment.
