Excellent selection of food. All you can eat buffet. Seafood galore!! From the salad bar to the desert bar & all the others available, the selection is really good!! The price is definitely reasonable for all you can eat & the selection available. The restaurant was clean, service was friendly. Priced under 20 a person. We will be back!!

Food is great and the service is very friendly. They have a good variety of sushi that the kids love. Would definitely come again!

Today, I find myself in Hoover, Alabama, stopping by a restaurant known as Chow Town—an establishment that, by name alone, promises abundance, comfort, and perhaps a certain rustic charm. With that in mind, let us proceed. Upon receiving the food, the presentation was adequate, though not without its imperfections. The dishes arrived somewhat sloppy in arrangement, suggesting a kitchen more focused on generosity than precision. That said, the food itself was decent—satisfying, filling, and agreeable to the palate. While it did not reach a level of refinement one might associate with meticulous craftsmanship, it nonetheless delivered on flavor in a way that was honest and serviceable. The service, however, was a curious experience. There was a sense of confusion in the process—uncertainty

there is a wide variety of food. the shrimp was huge. i don't eat shrimp so i don't know if it was good. evrry thing was clean and well kept. the servers were prompt to remove plates. every thing i ate was good and i would go back.

Seriously amazing food! Prices are great for an all you can eat buffet and the staff is super helpful and friendly. The sushi is fresh and My favorite is the hibachi grill. You choose your choice of meats, seafood or vegetables w/ rice or noodles and give it to the chef there. They will prepare it right in front of you. This is my go to place now. Amazing choices, great ambient. Clean and friendly service again and again! We went there yesterday and surprisingly to see these type of lunch items ~ Pork chops, (Prawn size) Salt pepper shrimps, huge fresh strawberries on the buffet bars. What a great prices for lunch! It’s only $11.49 per person. We will be back soon. Thanks Chow Town!
