One customer found "The food here is great" and the price "dirt cheap," mentioning a ticket price of $14, which goes up to roughly $18 with a drink. They appreciated the good taste and strong flavor of the food, with their only complaint being that "they make some of the options a little too spicy." They also praised the "great service" and "friendly" waiters, recounting an instance where a waiter replaced a cookie they had dropped. They noted an improvement in the cookies, which were previously too hard and crumbly but are now "soft just enough" for their enjoyment. This reviewer found the "atmosphere is decent."
Another reviewer stated that "The Royal Buffet is heavily underrated" and suggested that "If you like (American) Chinese food, you will like it here." This indicates a positive overall impression for those who enjoy this style of cuisine.
However, a contrasting review described the experience as "Awful. So awful." This customer expressed hesitation even upon entering, concerned about how long the food had been sitting out and the potential for contamination. While they found that "Some of the items tasted OK," their overall assessment was that "the food was not good." They reported feeling "very gross afterwards" despite not eating much, and both they and their husband experienced stomach aches.

The food here is great, and the ticket is dirt cheap. 14 dollars for the ticket by itself and then the drink does however make it roughly 18, but price wise, it really ain't that bad. The food tastes good, and the flavour is strong, my only complaint is they make some of the options a little too spicy, either that or I ate too much. Service is great, the waiters are friendly. One of them got me a new cookie because I dropped the other one on the floor accidentally. I also would have complained about the cookies being a little too hard and crumbly, they fixed that a while ago, the cookies are soft just enough to where I enjoy them. The atmosphere is decent. The Royal Buffet is heavily underrated. If you like (American) Chinese food, you will like it here.
Awful. So awful. I was hesitant even coming in but all I could think about is how long has the food been out. How many people have touched or coughed on the food. Some of the items tasted OK but overall the food was not good. I felt very gross afterwards and I didn’t even eat much. My husband and I both got stomach aches.
The food is always good here and they have hot and sour soup. It’s the bomb along with this egg drop and a complete buffet that’s always well stocked recommend early visits for lunch and that’s when I usually go because they have a senior discount.
Thought we were going to enjoy our food but the grill looked and smelled like old red meat. The crawfish tastes like mop water: the cooks and servers we not nice at all. The place gave me the creeps. Good luck.
Been going to Gourmet China for over 30 years. Their Cashew Nut Chicken is my favorite meal on the planet. And Charlie always makes me feel like family!
