    I tried China Lee tonight with a friend because we drove down to Ocala thinking the new Ocala location of Seafood Seller was open but alas, it has not yet. So, we drove further out Highway 40 and went to China Lee. I like Chinese buffets when of decent quality and things are done cleanly and safely. The main trick in this regard for any buffet is getting there around peak dinner hours and if busy and if well-managed, you'll have quick turnover of food and nothing will just sit around. That certainly seemed the case here, the restaurant was packed and food was constantly being brought out from the kitchen to replenish. I asked our waiter how old the restaurant is (a sign on the wall read "China Lee: Since 2005" but that seems to pertain to the chain). He said it opened last year and it looks that new: the interior is bright, clean, pale wood and accented with red lighting and signage. It seems Chinese and East Asian without being coy about it and also seems modern and well, just clean. You get the impression it's well-run and kept tidy just from this appearance--the light colors and openness of the design help and the buffet itself is laid out logically. Our waiter was good--not much he had to do but bring drinks and clear plates but he was always around. The food overall was good, too. They have Chinese stir-fries, some American-inspired dishes which I skipped over, a lot of deep fried Chinese-American goods (egg rolls, spring rolls, pot stickers, chicken wings, and more), quite a bit of fruit which is nice, a sushi bar with chefs setting out roll after roll after roll of sushi, and a hibachi. I skipped the sushi bar: sushi to me is something I demand the utmost quality in and most even "good" sushi bars in the US don't meet my standards so I am not getting sushi at a Chinese all-you-can-eat buffet. But the Chinese dishes, fried foods, and fruit all left little room for complaints. Indeed, the deep fried items were the best: the gyoza-like dumplings were plump, fresh, and tasty. They likely came frozen in a bag and not made in house, but still were good. So were the spring rolls. Also, all fried items seemed perfectly done and nothing burnt or tasting of old oil. Nothing was cold or "off" at all either and everything all about the quality you'd expect from a typical Chinese-American take-away place. For $19 plus tip you can't really go wrong here if you're hungry.
