Ramona from the buffet: Egg drop soup, egg roll, shrimp, chicken, rice, fruit, pastry, iced tea

Jim from the buffet: Won ton soup, egg roll, sushi, chicken, shrimp, fruit, iced tea

Since Summer Palace I (down near Baylor on I-35) closed, the name of this venue changed from Summer Palace II to plain old Summer Palace. We presume Summer palace III (in Hewitt) is now Summer Palace II.

At one time, Summer Palace was the best buffet in Waco, it fell off, and we switched to taste of China, but when that closed we went back to second best. We still do not think it is up to its once lofty place as the best buffet in Waco, but it is adequate. We will most likely stick to the three best sit down chinese restaurants in Waco -- Cathay House and Magic China (tied for first), and Happy Wok, which is an excellent venue for lunch.
