Ok Buffet - Edit
Decent food options, and if you come really hungry the $250 price is right. It’s a little hard to know what’s egg/dairy though.
Read moreMask policy at buffet is super annoying, especially when seating is so haphazard and tight.
Pros: Coffee, teas and Boba included in buffet!

Buffet with good range of food - Edit
This was quite a simple buffet to negotiate. We paid our 250 dollars per person at the front desk in the shop area then grabbed a plate and started loading up.
Read moreIt's an unlimited buffet which was a bit different to the pay-by-weight buffets we'd been to so far in Taiwan. It was fairly expensive, probably because of this, but it still felt like decent value for money. There was a good range of food including several tofu dishes and some dumplings. I also enjoyed the bubble tea ice lolly for dessert.
Pros: Good range of food, Bubble tea ice lolly

Oily generic food, rude staff - Edit
The female staff members on duty when I walked in clearly had zero desire to deal with another customer, which made me feel most welcome (there was a man who approached me later on who was nicer, but the damage was done). Buffet is good value in theory but the food is cold/lukewarm, swimming in oil, and mostly flavourless. Also they force you to wear a disposable mask when getting your food, which makes zero environmental sense. Avoid.

Great value and yummy food - Edit
For NT$250 you can help yourself to the buffet of veggie food, drinks & desserts! Seating downstairs and upstairs. I enjoyed two platefuls followed by ice cream for dessert! You must wear your mask when not at your table and this is enforced. A great place to try lots of different foods!

One of the best buffet in Taiwan - Edit
You can eat inside the restaurant but only if you pay 220$ and you can eat as much as you want. We're on a budget so we couldn't afford this. So you can take food away and pay by weight. It was rather cheap. We paid 170$ for 2 (you can see the amount on pictures)
Read morePros: Many dishes, Affordable if take away
Cons: Have to take all-you-can-eat buffet to eat here

Delicious Tasty Cheap Buffet - Edit
I had a huge lunch here that was very delicious with lots of vegan options. They had a great variety of salad, soups, hot dishes, sides and desserts. The price was very reasonable and it is located close to the main train station.
Read moreThey had a sweet taro paste topped with chickpeas that was incredible, a few of there dishes were so amazing actually.
Be warned there could be some egg in some dishes and all the ice cream contain milk.
I would definitely come back here to fill my boots with tasty Taiwanese vegan food.
Pros: Cheap and tasty., Huge variety of options.
Cons: Can get busy at peak times, Egg and dairy in some options

Great value buffet - Edit
This place was full of locals, always a good sign! The buffet was varied and tasty. Several soups, rice, noodles, lots of vegetables, dumplings, fried tofu, sushi, fruit and mochi. Several hot and cold teas. There are no English labels so depends how willing you are to take your chances. Everything is vegetarian and I easily avoided anything with egg in it. Some reviews say staff are rude. They were very helpful, they are just there to do their job, which is to keep the buffet topped up, they are not there to serve you!

Wide variety of food. - Edit
This buffet was somewhat busy and very noisy when I visited. There were many different dishes to choose from, although quite a few were rather oily. It seems to be a place that the locals enjoy visiting. There were also many organic and health-food products for sale inside.
Read moreOverall it's worth a visit to enjoy a basic Asian buffet, but don't expect anything awesome.

Disappointed - Not as good as the reviews had made out - Edit
Staying in Hualien for three nights we chose to come here based on the rave reviews on happy cow. I was disappointed, the price was good and there were plenty of options but the food wasn’t very tasty, it was rather bland and greasy. Still it was a good price and there were lot of options, it just wasn’t for me.

Amazing - Edit
Would have eaten here every night if we could have, you pay 200 for a plate and eat what you want or pay by weight for take out. Go early- theres lots of seating but was about half full not long gone opening, plus the food is hot and fresh then, however they do constantly replenish. there is a huge variety and everything we had was great, free hot drinks, couldnt recommend it more. Local place but they speak enough english at the till to get by.

best dumplings ever - be prepared to overeat - Edit
This all you can eat buffet was so good I still dream of it. You pay 200 twd and you can eat as much as possible.
Read moreThe dumplings were absolutely awesome and the other dishes were great too. We didn’t eat the ice cream because it didn’t look cruelty free. But there was no egg or milk in the other dishes so save for us. If you are in Hualien you have to go there.
A lot of people go there to eat so be prepared and arrive early (from 5-6)
Pros: delicious , all you can eat , dumplings
Cons: non vegan ice (I guess)

rescued us from starving - Edit
Arrived in Hualien in the afternoon and was starving because I did not have the time to fill up my belly yet.
Read moreThe place was closed but after showing our puppy eyes to the owner she opened up the buffet and let us eat.
Great variety of food and everything was very tasty (a bit cold, but then again, we ate the lunch leftovers)
The dishes weren't too oily or too salty and there was enough variety of vegetable dishes and carbs (sushi, sandwiches, rice, noodles etc.)
Highly recommend this place.
Came back the next day for a proper dinner.
Pros: variety , cheap (payed by weight), excellent staff

Tasty and cheap buffet - Edit
Great place to try a variety of Taiwanese food. The only thing I saw that wasn't vegan was some ice cream bars in the freezer (they also had vegan popsicles). It is Buddhist vegetarian which means no meat, fish, eggs, dairy, onions, or garlic, so I'm not sure about these reviews saying it is not vegan ... Anyway, it's really cheap with some very tasty food. I came here several times during my two weeks in Hualien so I also know that they have good variety day to day.
Read morePros: All you can eat, Dirt cheap, Huge variety
Cons: May not be 100% vegan but who knows???, Pretty crowded, you may be seated with strangers
