Easy

it was okay for a chinese buffet. the sweet & sour chicken was good, as well as some of the sushi… however, i don’t think it was worth the ‘weekend’ price :/

The food is good when fresh, barely subpar when not fresh. Basic Chinese buffet with a sushi selection,
Good sushi, but I feel like I’m playing Russian Roulette when it’s been sitting out a while.

I went for the sushi and was pleasantly happy with what I got. The price is good and so is the sushi !

First time here and the kids enjoyed it and I was happy tip see a sushi selection offered on the buffet… BONUS! Great food, good times. Happy family tonight!

Basic Chinese buffet. I probably won’t repeat this one.

This place is subpar. I’m new to the area and came here based off location and other Unilocal reviews. They have a large buffet but it was old and awful. All the food had a strange taste to it. The sushi tasted well over a day old. Service wasn’t great either. Don’t waste your time or money coming to this location, especially if you are hungry. I will continue looking for new Chinese places in the area but I will not return to this one.

Chinese buffet. Not much more to say…

We went for dinner on the 4^th of July. They jacked up the price $ 4 to $ 14.99! On top of that, they added nothing they don’t always have every other time and the food was cold. This was the 4^th time I’ve been dragged to this lousy joint and it’s sucked all 4 times. This time, my party finally saw the light on what I’ve been saying about it all along so thank God I’ll never have to go back! The Bamboo Valley buffet about a mile away is head and shoulders above this place.

Went in around 2 pm and you could definitely tell the food has been sitting out for hours. This is the third time my family and I have gone and each time we gave been less than impressed. After yesterday’s visit my wife refuses to go back.

Easy is a good standby for dinner. The food is decent an service is pretty good. I’ve been coming here quite a few times and have really never had a bad experience. The food turns over enough that it doesn’t dry out like is the case with some other buffets. I go here if I’m in the mood for crab legs since only Easy and Ginger have crab legs on their weekly buffet. Head to head for Chinese buffets has to go to Hokaido, but if I’m in the mood for crab, I’m going to Easy.

Well, it’s a Chinese buffet. That pretty much sums up Easy.
If I HAVE to eat at a Chinese buffet, I would much rather go to Hokkaido in Fairview Heights… but the husband just adores this place. We came on a Sunday in the late afternoon and paid about $ 11 per person. The selection is decent at best and I think the sushi from the commissary on base tastes better than the stuff here. They offer Mongolian BBQ, but I’ve never tried it.
Overall, this place is just mediocre. I would never choose to come here of my own accord.

My boyfriend and I haven’t had a bad experience here yet.
I highly suggest the crablegs (even tho there’s no butter sauce for them… that would be AWESOME).
The sushi there is pretty good too for the price of the buffet…

This is an average Chinese buffet. They have a stir fry station where you build your own. I like this, good selection of items to add to the stir fry.
Service is good. It’s cheaper to go during the week.

When your a college student looking for a place to eat lunch this is a great place to go. The food is very good and the service is also very good.

So-​so. Not a buffet fan, but we went there once for a function and it was alright. I like that you could have your own food cooked if you wanted, but that’s not my thing. Give it a shot on a weekday lunch so you don’t have to pay as much.

I am writing in regards to the sushi, as that is all I really had.
Easy has one of the best sushi sections, especially for a buffet. I quite enjoyed what they had available. My only complaint will be to the rice for the tuna and salmon, it was dried out.
I think they could also restock more often. But, maybe it just goes that quickly, so that is not a complaint so much as a note.
I completely enjoyed this buffet and look forward to another visit.

This is not the best buffet place in the area. I do have to say if you want fresh food get there as soon as it opens around 1100. A nice perk is that kids are judged by there height as far as having to be paid for. Mine is 2 and sits in a high chair and they never charge her, so that is why i frequent here more than i plan to. They do have a great selection of food it is just mediocre.
There is a mongolian grill with limited selection of toppings. There mongolian beef and sesame/​honey chicken is actually pretty good. They have a small sushi area of your basic cucumber roll type pieces of sushi. They do however have shrimp sushi which actually tastes not bottom of the line. There chicken skewers are yummy.
The price is great for lunch and take-​out not so great for dinner.

The people that work here are exceptionally nice. I cam in late on a Sunday usual good food at reasonable prices. It was late and they were still putting out fresh food.
On a humorous note I heard a patron bragging about his new green pepper diet. This was a WTH moment for my boys. It was funny said at a Chinese buffett, but funnier so when the speaker has a full plate of food… and… well how do I say it… there was no green peppers on their plate. But ironically there was BS accumulating at their ankles?

IN SHORT: A large and mediocre Chinese buffet in a restaurant where space has been maximized to pack people in like cattle.
DETAILS: I have to admit that I don’t understand the positive reviews for Easy, a Chinese buffet just outside a Wal-​Mart in Belleville. My wife and I went there on the basis of these reviews, and we were fairly disappointed. I would recommend Ginger in Fairview Heights over Easy for a buffet, and I would recommend China King over Easy for takeout.
Easy is particularly interesting in that it seems to be designed with the herd mentality in mind. I have never seen such an efficiently-​designed seating area — it seems like whoever came up with the design used a grid and tried to figure out how they could maximize the table space. Sadly, this means a minimal level of comfort, because the place can get so crowded that getting up to go to the buffet can be an ordeal as you wait for others to waddle on by.
The buffet itself is large, but not designed with the same sort of efficiency in mind. It’s sort of a square sawtooth design, which means that the indented spots get very crowded as people stop and grab food. There is a Mongolian BBQ grill in the middle (and it’s probably the best option for vegetarians like myself, since there are few vegetarian entrees on the buffet), but everything else is pretty normal fare for a Chinese buffet, right down to the gross dessert trays that must come pre-​made from the distributors.
Will Easy allow you to easily eat your weight in Americanized Chinese food? Sure. Does it attract a certain clientele from the Wal-​Mart around the corner, making it a great place to people-​watch? Absolutely. Will you marvel at how many people this restaurant can cram into a single buffet? I know I did.
Would I recommend it as a destination for Chinese food? …
On that last point, not so much. The Metro East is certainly lacking good options for Chinese food, and most of the buffets seem to serve pretty much the same stuff. Still, I’d rather grave at Ginger’s spacious and easy-​to-​navigate buffet than run with the herd at Easy.

As far as St. Louis is concerned I am still on a quest to find AMAZING chinese food. This place beats out all the places that I have tried in the Metro area. It’s a buffet type place with the Mongolian grill and small sushi bar. Every time we have had fresh food. I love it even more that I can go in, grab a to-​go box and pay by the pound since I don’t eat that much anyways. This really worked out when I couldn’t eat out for months at a time (due to my bed rest). I’m definitely a fan.
