Overall, reviews indicate Buffet Chinois Ming Wah serves a wide and fresh buffet with many hot dishes, a variety of cold selections including sushi, and a clean, well maintained dining room. Guests praise fast refills, friendly and professional staff, and a lively atmosphere, with many calling it the best or among the top Chinese buffets in the area. Some experiences note value concerns and higher prices, especially for children, and occasional negatives include lukewarm soup, overly fried items, dishes running out and requiring a wait, plus crowded spaces and parking difficulties. Reservations are often advised, and despite the occasional hiccup, most reviewers say they would return and would recommend it for celebrations or casual meals with family and friends.
Went as a group of four, we were kept at the entrance for 40 min, in a very small place, while people kept coming in. At some point they were directed to wait outside, for lack of space. Inside it's nice, enough space, place is getting a little old & could use a fresh coat of paint. The food seemed a bit old, but in this kind of place, you can't expect something different. They refill often enough so you don't have to wait too much, but desserts are weak.
Not returning soon, but it's worth a visit.
Late post.
We were looking for a restaurant & this restaurant caught our attention.
First the parking is packed with cars. That only tells me food must be good.
Second, line up. Because we're only 3 people they gave us table right away. However if you're in a group there's a waiting line (15 mins)
Lastly & mostly importantly food content, they're well refill. Mind you they're fresh veggies, grilled shrimps etc…
It is worth your money. We were very satisfied when we finished our meals.
Also, our server is great. She answered all our questions with great professionalism.
We will be back.

I love this buffet. It has variety, good flavor, & fresh food. It is a little bit expensive compared with other buffets in the Saint-Jerome zone, but it is worth it.
My friend & I came here for the first time, on a Sunday for supper. There was a good choice of foods, & a nice choice of desserts, including a choice of fresh cut-up fruits to make your own fruit salad. Usually I come away from a Chinese buffet feeling "sick/bloated" full. Not this time. Maybe they use very little, or no, msg? The food was definitely not too salty (& therefore healthier). Usually I'm drinking tons of water both at the Chinese buffet restaurant, & then again all night when I get home, because of the salty food. Not this time. All the food tasted great. The fried foods were not too thick with batter, & were light & crispy, not oily-tasting. As soon as a food "bin" was empty, it was replenished. My friend said that it was the best won-ton soup she had ever tasted. Considering it was a Sunday night (not usually a popular restaurant night), & the place was full, a lot of people obviously know that this is a terrific restaurant. Our waiter was very pleasant. Obviously the cooks are also great. Whoever is running this restaurant now knows what they're doing. This is now, definitely, our new go-to Chinese restaurant. While there could be a few more food choices than there were (but the amount they had was still worth the money), a lot of restaurants did not come out well after the Pandemic, & one of the well-known chains of Chinese restaurants that did manage to re-open a restaurant or two for the "all-you-can-eat" only offered one kiosque of food bins on a Saturday night. & the restaurant prices have gone up dramatically everywhere, so I think that this restaurant, which offers 3 kiosques of food bins plus quite a few choices of soups, sushi, salad bar, desserts & ice cream, offers a very good deal for the price they charge. I really couldn't complain about anything. So this is the reason I gave 5 stars.
I usually stay away from buffet style restaurant but I must admit that I like this one very much. It is such a busy restaurant that you don't have to question the freshness of the food. Service is quick. Always a line at the door, but goes pretty fast.
I went twice & will go back for sure!
