Update: Thursday, October 26, 2023 PMThe good:they were quite busy tonight. I went at dinner time and because they were busy, most of the food was fairly fresh.The not good:diet Pepsi was miserable. Like brown water. Other issue…any battered food had a heavy heavy coating of batter. Lots of batter and little meat inside! Cheap food. You get what you pay for!______________Wow, there are five Sherman’s Chinese Buffet restaurants in Stockton. Well actually four. The one on Country Club is takeout only. No dine in, which I found out the hard way. I had planned on dining there tonight… I walked in and there were no tables. Strictly takeout. I hadn’t been there since before Covid!I asked one of the employees which restaurants had tables for dine in. I believe she said all the rest except the Country Club location.So, I chose to try the one on Pershing Avenue.I think it was a good choice. I went during the dinner hour… 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM. It is IMPORTANT that you go during peak hours to get fresh and hot food ‼️There were several parties dining in and a constant stream of takeout orders. So they were constantly refilling the steam table.The food is like I remember it from the other location. Same garlic chicken thighs, same fried rice, everything else very similar. Only problem is everything had way TOO MUCH BATTER on it. I tried to peel most of the batter off. I wound up with a whole plate full of batter.(see the photo)‼️All in all it was a good dinner. Less than 10 bucks for all you can eat! Cheaper than eating at McDonald’s.Sherman’s used to be part of my regular rotation but my rotation got screwed up since Covid. I plan on fixing that by coming back to this location frequently.But…only during the PEAK DINNER hour. (Probably lunch hour too)Nothing worse soggy, battered Chinese food!NOTE: they are appropriately located in the old Dave Wong’s restaurant! :)

Everyone is always so nice and helpful when we go in! I’m not sure about the review about the portion sizing, because every time we’ve gone they fill our plates completely. Can never finish everything at one sitting. Portion sizing is more than adequate. Food is tasty also! We love coming here.

Sherman’s Buffet #5 (where the old Dave Wong’s Deli use to be, corner of Pershing & Robinhood). Super friendly service, tasty food, huge portions at a very modest price!We usually stop by after golf on Fridays to get our fill of delicious Chinese food at Sherman’s. They fill up our 4 item plates to the brim and have to keep it closed with rubber bands (love it!) There’s so much food it usually takes us 2 days to finish it. Hint: if you love the Chow fun (fat noodles) you got to come before 3pm!) My favorites are the chow mein, boneless garlic chicken, broccoli & beef, deep fried veggies (like tempura) and bbq pork. Not a big selection but the food they have is delicious at a really great price!We also ordered food for a birthday party a month ago for 16 adults and 8 kids for $329 and it turned out to be enough to feed double the amount of people. The small trays were packed with food and everyone loved the food. Can’t say enough good things about this Sherman’s, try it out you won’t be disappointed.

Love the food, but this location unfortunately gives like… 1/3rd less on take out vs the other locations. Still good food but portions are lacking compared to the others in my opinion. Like at the others they actively seem like they want to add more food in before closing it but this place the lady will actually take food out of the plate which seems like such a small thing to nitpick but it’s kinda the big thing about this place imo. If they fix that part it’s a 5/5

They are always polite here. Great service. Great food. The servings are enormous. Literally 2-3 people can share one rice plate.

I like Sherms buffet. So I did a search to see where the nearest one was. I was very surprised to find out that they had a new location right around the corner. I was even more surprised the food was even better than some of the others.
