Customer Reviews
Large dining area, great service, food is 7/10 fresh and rarely looks like it's been sitting for hours. Very attentive staff who are always coming out and checking the food. Sometimes they switch up some ingredients. For instance I love the baked spinach and cheese dish. More than a few times it seems their spinach was dark and brownish, long and very stringy. Other times it's very green and bright and tastes like it was fresh spinach. I always leave full off one plate and some soup.
I have been to Empire Buffet many times. I am a return Customer because I totally enjoy the variety of foods that are prepared that are always steaming hot and very tasty. The staff seems very friendly and the prices seem to be reasonable for Buffet prices that are out in the market now. One of the highlights of this Buffet is there dessert bar. They have a great variety of great selection of fruits and cookies and pastries puddings pies lots of really great dessert offerings
Haven't been here in a couple years. Looks like they did a renovation which turned out very nice! The food wasn't bad, however my family of 4 (two adults and two toddlers) all went to bed that night and ended up feeling extremely sick! Especially me and my son. Spent $70 just to throw up and be in the bathroom all night long (5x) (3x for my son). Sadly won't be back :(
Good food, and amazing staff. The hostess seated us very quickly, and the waitress was so attentive! She quickly re-filled our drinks and took our plates. They were both so sweet. The food was great! It was very flavorful, and everything that was supposed to be warm was warm, and everything that was supposed to be cold was cold. I loved that they had ice cream. You don't see that at many buffets anymore! It was also very clean. The tables, seats, silverware, and cups were spotless. The plates were still warm from coming out of the dishwasher when I went up to get my food. Overall, it's a great buffet! They also sell beautiful earrings, claw clips, and watches at the front register.
Peanut. Butter. Chicken Allow me to repeat PEANUT. BUTTER. CHICKEN! Also, the seafood bake is fire. Personally, I like the lunch spread over the dinner spread but both are good. Dinner does cost a little more. If you want to judge for yourself go during the changeover time. You will get the best of both worlds. Me prepared for bad 90s soap-opra music as they really love the loud saxophone music.
