  The food had always been very good. The service is attentive without hovering and being annoying. I always had hot water for my tea. Plates were removed promptly while having the buffet.
  
  Speaking of the buffet, all you can eat for $8.99. There is nowhere in Winnipeg that you can get that. Tell them you are diabetic and they will give you complimentary diabetic tea. Three of us had supper for $33.97.
  
  Overall my experience at Cathay House has always been excellent.

  We had dinner there this evening. Food was delicious, hot, and we left full, with enough food for lunch tomorrow. Service is friendly, and the food is wonderful, not bland or overspiced. We ordered one of the specialty dishes, with pork, peppers and mangoes, and it was amazing. We will definitely be going back.

  Massive Chinese restaurant that has seemingly fallen out of favour in Winnipeg from its glory days. This place used to be packed all the time. My parents tell me if it's glory days back in the '80s.
  
  So it's a pretty standard Chinese menu for the lunch buffet, which was a great value at $7.99. I mean, you can barely get a meal from a fast food joint for that price.
  
  My only issue was one of my chicken balls was a little stale, but it's a cheap buffet, not a big deal.
  
  Now these guys had been shut down once for a health code violation. I saw that in the news before. When me and a coworker were at our table, the owner had come up to us and explained that there was an equipment malfunction that he didn't know about which was dripping oil. Meh, not a big health concern for me. If it was a rat infestation, that would be a bit of a different story.
  
  Service was great, prompt and polite.
  
  So to summarize, food was solid, service was great and price can't be beat.

  Awful.....food was not fresh, dried out and greasy.
  Saw their add for a $8.99 buffet.
  If they want to keep a customer they have to do a whole lot better.
  Cleanliness not acceptable.
  We will never return.
  On a positive note our waitress was friendly and efficient .

  Used to be a great place. It's gone downhill to the point it's not even on the hill anymore. Beware the debit card scam. The girls punch in the amount of your bill wrong and after you pay tell you they entered the wrong amount. Then fix it and make you pay the balance. This way they can charge you the debit fee twice. Better off going to Royal Fork behind them.
