Vietnamese Buffet

While not a buffet in the traditional sense, Hong Kong Bakery's expansive steam table setup functions as one for practical purposes. You'll find a rotating selection of Vietnamese and Chinese items — banh mi fillings, roasted meats, stir-fried noodles, and stewed dishes like braised beef and sour soup. The point-and-pick format lets you cover the breadth of Vietnamese comfort food in one sitting.

Quynh Anh operates more as a deli and bakery, but their glass-case setup offers a Vietnamese feast-by-selection. Choose from pre-made items like spring rolls, tapioca cakes, braised meat, and various Vietnamese savory snacks. For anyone wanting to sample a wide range of Vietnamese items without a full sit-down meal, this is the closest Atlanta gets to a Vietnamese buffet experience.

Huong Viet offers one of the broadest Vietnamese menus on Buford Highway, and their family-style portions make it easy to order a spread that covers the whole menu. Ordering 5-6 dishes here gives you a buffet-like sampling experience — pho, Hue beef noodle soup, broken rice, and banh xeo all on one table. The best way to taste your way through Vietnamese cuisine in one sitting.
