If you're looking for an affordable buffet with friendly amazing staff, look no further! It was clean and had a variety of options for a big family. My kids love it here and can't wait to come back! read more

The food is basic at best and most of it had no flavor and had obviously been sitting for a while. The Sushi consists of basically California rolls .. definitely not real sushi that they have pictures of outside the building. Overall lackluster. They are cheap for a buffet but not worth getting food poisoning. Definitely won't be returning. read more

The food was good, for the location they had lots of options. The staff was extremely nice even with us coming in late and leaving a few minutes after closing. I would definitely recommend it and will go again read more

Not the greatest looking place when you arrive, but the food is always great and fresh. Service is good as well. A hidden gem in Brighton and they have some limited sushi and a little Mongolian grill. read more

My wife and I were in Brighton area and craving for Chinese food for lunch. We decided to check out Buffet City for the first time. Arrived at 11am. As soon as we walked in, I noticed right away their huge dining area. The ambiance is pretty nice. Place was clean. I thought the food selection was pretty good. The staff was very friendly and professional. She cleared out the empty plates off our table each time she walks by. The lunch price was excellent. I thought the taste of the foods I tried (see picture) was very good. For $12.00 per person, I can't complain. We would definitely come back to this place again. read more

1 star for selection. I think they have a good selection of Chinese food and salad bar and sushi and some American food. 1 star for taste. I think they have good tasting food. 1 star for dessert. They have ice cream and puddings and other tasty treats to end your meal. 1 star for Covid Setup. Happy they still offered the buffet even during time where many restaurants are under restrictions. They serve you what you want in a safe environment. 0.5 star for the price, but I can't give a half star. We paid $12 for each adult and I think it was more of a $10 per adult price but still reasonable. read more

We have been Brighton for just over 17 months now and are still trying new places. I've always been curious about this place a d the word 'buffet" has always caught my eye, lol. But for some reason I've always thought it catered more towards the sushi side but I was wrong. I was talking to a person that has been in and around Brighton for 30 plus years a d frequents various restaurants around town and she mentioned this one so the next evening we went here. And honestly I was really glad I did. We went on a Saturday evening where there was no wait and plenty of seating available. Dont get me wrong there was a good amount of ppl ut no necessary to wait for a table or booth. Large parties does seem like a possibility. There is your typical Asian favorites from fried rice to crawfish, peel and eat shrimp, and sushi. They also offer Mongolian BBQ but unfortunately the items to choose from aren't labeled but they are pretty self explanatory. Deserts are pretty basic but who's really there for the desert bar anyway. Prices are reasonable 10.99 for an adult buffet less drinks. The only downfall abou this place is the parking , things are a little tight and limited. But as far as pricing and variety of food it's worth it. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

This is the best buffet in Brighton the woman who runs it is so nice and their food is one of the best Chinese food in Brighton recommend highly read more

Service was good but $3 for 2 drinks is kind of a rip off. The shrimp wasn't clean and ice cream was frost bitten to high hell.

The food is ok, mainly chicken and meat options, I expected more variety, not many side dishes. But not bad for $14 dinner. Waitress was very polite and quick to refill drinks and take plates away. Will return again. read more

Lunch was first thing to do and then shopping. Looked for a place with good food and price. BING, got'em read more

Buffet City - ladies choice... buffet it was. Everyone wanted seconds and thirds did happen for a few. Will tell others to come by :) - Buffets Near Me - Brighton, Colorado

I honestly try to look at the bright side of every experience and the closest I came to saying something positive is that thank goodness my husband and I didn't get food poisoning from this place. Everything about this place is mediocre, from the food to the decor to the staff. The food is mediocre at best. I wouldn't say it was "disgusting" or inedible, but it was not great. We tried as many dishes as we could to see which ones were their "specialty" but couldn't distinguish which ones since they were all so "meh." The decor is depressing. We went around 6pm, sunset and all the windows were closed. I wish there were more light in the restaurant. It was just so dark and depressing, like there is no care or love put into the place, or that care and love has been drained. The staff is friendly, but they also look depressed. The staff did not look like they want to be there and only doing it for the job and/or to pass the time. If the staff don't look like they want to be there, why should the customers? Maybe the time of day we went was late and they were tired, but the overall experience we had was just so depressing. I would not recommend this place or would come back. read more

Yeah, it's OK. Really, I can't say anything bad so I'm giving 3 stars because the food was just as good as any other buffet out there. Choices consisted of the usual. Chicken dishes, beef dishes, and American dishes for the kids who don't like the Asian selections. I will say that the day we went there the sushi was pretty good. And they have a bottle of a light colored spicy sauce which was really tasty on the sushi. If you're in the Brighton area and have a hankerin' fer a Chinese buffet, check it out. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Just don't expect to be impressed either. read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside but we all enjoyed the food and since it's a buffet we tried it all, lol. Service was excellent. Server was friendly, checked on refills and kept plates cleared. Atmosphere was conducive to group talking and relaxing. Prices were reasonable. We'll definitely be back. read more

Service was quick. Clean spot as well and clean bathrooms. Buffet was stocked properly and food options excellent. My only critique would be to add cheese for a salad topping. Other than that a good experience here. read more

Buffet City - Buffet salad and toppins - Buffets Near Me - Brighton, Colorado

It's been said before but you totally get what you pay for. Being a local to brighton I frequently get burnt out on Mexican food... and this is a good swap for a week or 2. The sushi is great all the fish is extra fresh and the Mongolian BBQ is where it's at. I personally do not like a lot of salt on my food so I head straight to the BBQ section and simply wait (maybe 15 seconds) at the counter and the same person come out. As soon as he sees me he always smiles and asks "just steam right?" Then quickly begins the cooking process. If your still reading I'm sure you can tell I have been here more then a few times and I personally have never been sick nor have any of my coworkers. I would estimate 100-200 total meals and not one person I know had any issue. Now the not so good. The bathrooms-aren't the best but at least they have soap! There are 2 Mexican restaurants in Brighton who do not have soap in the restroom.... enough said about that. The not so hot hot dishes-Occasionally if you come at an odd-ball time some of the hot dishes do look as though they have ben sitting but that's any buffet that is not super busy. The wait staff-is super hit or miss you can have 4 good ones in a row then 15 bad ones haha but I mean it's a buffet wait staff isn't super crucial. The desert-selection is meek however they make their own coconut macaroons that are mind blowing. Seriously I eat at least 5 every time I go (2 plain 3 with ice cream) Other then that it's hard to find a good sushi place and Mongolian BBQ all you can eat anything for $20 for 2 people with a tip!! Bottom line Is there better out there? Of corse! Is it cheaper? heck no! Will you be stuffed to the gills and request a wheelbarrow to return to your car? Definitely not! So just go try it... if you hate it oh well it's $20.. :) read more

Went today for be lunch buffet. Overall, hit and miss but ok for a Chinese buffet. The place was very clean and most of the food trays were hot and replenished when needed. The sushi was mediocre and I didn't like the hot and sour soup at all. The hot pepper chicken, fried rice and lo mein noodles were my favorites. Sesame chicken and honey chicken were ok. The fried shrimp were good. There were a lot of items to choose from and they ranged from pretty good to mediocre. Service was good and my iced tea was refilled timely. read more

As y'all know, I'm a fiend for Chinese buffets, for some weird reason, probably genetic. And I was thrilled when this place opened RIGHT IN MY TOWN! Alas, my enthusiasm was quickly tempered by the unpleasant reality that this place, despite not falling to the Brighton service curse, was going to succumb to the Brighton shitty/indifferently-made-food curse. The main good thing about this place is that it's not another Mexican restaurant. Large, inviting dining room. The buffet area is spacious and laid out well, you can get your food without being run over by other patrons. HOWEVER, the selection of Chinese entrees is limited, mostly a lot of MEXICAN/American items like pizza, hot wings, and taco makings. The Chinese food is standard stuff like beef w/ broccoli, chicken this and chicken that, with very little to offer in the way of seafood. As others have noted, the food sits around until it's dried out and lukewarm. We ate here a couple of weeks ago because we both got off work late, wanted something quick. After getting the bill for over $21 for decidedly lackluster food, we decided Pho TJ would have been a better choice. read more

I see people complaining about this place, but I honestly can't see why. I was also skeptical. The building used to be a Salvation Army thrift store and was disgusting. But finally one day we checked it out with the kids. They remodeled the entire building all the way down to the studs. The tables and chairs are all spotless. The food is all at perfect temperature and always seems to be fresh. The selection of food is about as good as any sit down Chinese food menu. The price was MORE THAN FAIR. I just don't understand the complaints. The only other Chinese options are Asia Inn (Awesome food but just too expensive now) and the other chinese buffet place on Bridge street (china wall???). Now that this new Buffet City is open I won't be going to either of their competitors anymore. As long as the quality stays as it is now I'll be a long term customer. The kids loved eating there and were excited that they also had pizza, mac and cheese and ice cream. The sushi was even decent. I highly recommend this place. You're not trying to eat at PF Changs, so get over yourselves if you want to be too critical. BUT I would rather eat here than P.F. Changs 4 out of 5 times. The food is good. It's that simple. read more

I would highly reccomend this place if you're feeling particularly masochistic. Hey, I don't judge. (except on Yelp) If you've never eaten here, consider yourself very lucky. I tried this place (foolishly) twice because it's within walking distance of my office and both times I was not only extremely dissapointed, but I was angry that I had paid for this food, TWICE! Shame on me! From their flavorless sushi to their over cooked sea food there was a wide array of disgusting excuse for something edible. This food is the worst version of whatever dishes you so bravely decide to put on your plate. It didn't even smell good. It's as if they bought their ingredients as they were about to expire, cooked the food and then bring it back out day after day. I came in once for a lunch buffet, once for the dinner buffet and both times, I hated myself for it, which is saying a whole lot, since I love the ish out of me! I can't even say I enjoyed the fortune cookies that smell/taste like dried out play doe. (Don't act like you've never tried dried out playdoe, I would almost prefer if, after having eaten there) Twice I filled up a to-go box, and twice I threw away 95% of it. The lady at the front desk seems a bit scatter-brained, which I found almost equally as distasteful as their "food". To their credit, they have a huge dining room area, spacious seating, and this one time I went in there was this cute tatted up white boy (with his ugly gf, womp, womp womp). Anyway, NEVER AGAIN. read more

I don't know what to say. Let's start off with food. The food is good. I don't know about you but my favorite is the meatballs on a stick and the rainbow ice cream. Yum. The rest goes downhill, the bathrooms. Their gross. Especially the men's. My husband saves his bathroom break until we go home. The women's I guess is alright but it's definitely not the best. Our experience is horrible everytime we go. The employees are always staring at my husband because he eats the same thing over, and over. 'All you can eat' my butt. They stare you down until you finish eating. Maybe we'll go to Pinocchio's next time... read more

The food is very bland. There's no flavor to it and no labels on any of the food so you don't know what to our getting.The service is terrible. We didn't know if was seat your self or wait to be seated. We asked to ask one the workers who ignored us when walking in. I wouldn't come back. I do not recommend this place. read more

I like the sushi here but it's like pulling teeth to get anyone to make it. And when you do finally get someone to, they make it seem like a huge inconvenience like your taking them away from something more important. The rest of the food is ok not a big selection tho. But the reason why they are getting 2 stars is because of the cashier lady. I have a service dog and she sat and argued with me in front of the whole restaurant that I couldn't bring him in. She definitely doesn't know her ADA laws. Finally another waitress came and said "it was ok" but they sat me in the very back away from the whole restaurant. This is embarrassing and pretty sad when people don't understand their laws. ‍ read more

I think they are great! The food is usually great, once in a while some food is just ok like any other place but they keep the place clean for so much traffic. Staff is friendly always. Very welcome establishment! read more

Ambiance was a bit lacking due to staff screaming at each other in their native language the entire time we were there. They were obviously arguing and unhappy which flowed over to how we were being treated. It made for a pretty uncomfortable dinner. On the flip side, there was a wide variety of food to choose from. The sushi was limited but what they had tasted fresh. read more

My fiance and I have just eaten lunch buffet here, and it was laughable. Disgustingly laughable. We bet which site would have the funniest awful reviews on it. Here's ours: The sushi is super bland, and they brought a plate of COLD (refrigerated cold) fried sushi out.. just no. How do you even. I'm a fiend for the fried goods, so having had my heart broken at the sushi counter, I moved on to try the spring rolls, crab Rangoon, fried gyoza, and egg rolls. I like sweet & sour sauce to dip and got some of that. Upon sampling, the sweet & sour is watered down!!! :(.... the egg roll tasted a little off, but with a good sweet and sour I would've chowed down. The crab Rangoon was sour and I'm scared I'm going to get sick because the cream cheese was definitely bad.. everything else was one bite and I set it aside. The sesame chicken was the worst I ever had. They have quite a selection of pasta salads. Warning: NOT mayo, some gross plain Greek yogurt or some such... Rice very dry, and the low mein was so dry I had pieces that were on the verge of crunchy... they didn't bend when I scooped them up with my fork :/ The GOOD FOOD: on the far right buffet, there was a small portion of this fried shrimp covered in sweet mayonnaise sauce. That shit was the shit. Oh, and they only have 4 sad flavors of ice cream. Spoiler alert: no cookies and cream. read more

Partner and I went to this place for dinner. This place is a buffet so we tried 2 chicken dishes, pot stickers, egg rolls, crab cheese won tons,. The only prob. Everything was either COLD OR LUKE WARM. The only thing that was good was the scoop of spumoni ice cream. I'm not that picky of an eater, but my goodness, that was just plain garbage. Dept of health should pay this place a visit. i wish I had taken some pics of the dishes. The crab chees won ton were white and so were the egg rolls. They looked old, and they were all clumped together in a pile on the buffet line. Maybe they were sitting there all day? So essentially I paid $25 bucks for a glass of Mt Dew and Siera Mist and one small scoop of ice cream. Just bad. read more

I ate here back closer to when it first opened, but the food was horrendous then. I tried a little bit of most of the offerings they had and nothing was better than mediocre, with a large amount of the dishes being outright terrible. For decent Chinese food in Brighton, Great Wall remains the only viable option for now.. read more

This place is disgusting. I have been 2 times and each time the food is cold and old. The soup has a film on top like it hadn't been stirred, the chicken is stale and cold, the egg rolls and pot stickers are hard, And most importantly the sushi is too fishy and the see weed is impossible to chew through most likely because it's old! We actually found a piece of long black hair in the rice we brought it to the managers attention and the said it was ours, BTW we are all blonde. They have very few items to choose from. read more

You get what you pay for so this will never be top notch food but I think the try hard to make this as good as they can. They now have a raw food section that they cook fresh for you and it is very good. read more

Every single time I eat here (which has been about three times) I get a horrible stomachache. It's nice and affordable, but I would not recommend it unless you like eating old, hard food. I recall a time when I was there for dinner and a little kid was pooping in the corner and no one was around (including his parents). This place is just completely unsanitary. read more

Loved this buffet!! Everything was very good and the service was great. I was pleased at how often they rotated the food so it wouldn't get cold and how often they would go around and check on the temperatures! My son is also a picky eater and they had such a big variety that my family of 3 were all able to eat a big plate of something we all loved!! read more

Exactly what you would expect for buffet options. Service was friendly. Food was good. Affordable place to eat.

Well - much of the food on the buffet was lukewarm and stale - fried shrimp had been out too long and were nasty. Crab Rangoon lukewarm as were many other items. On the rare occasion they refreshed an item it was not too bad,. The kicker - they had signs on the main street side window that showed Saturday lunch was indeed lunch prices. When the bill came it was for dinner prices. Double checking the signs on the front door showed Saturday lunch was posted at the much higher dinner prices. Then checked the signs on the main street side and they showed Saturday lunch at lunch prices. Went in and informed the lady at the cashier area and she did not offer to make it right nor did she take the main street signs off the window. Will likely file a complaint with Visa for what would seem to be fraudulent use of their Credit Card merchant account. Very poor experience all around. read more

A chinese "all-you-can-eat" buffet (with a couple of non-chinese dishes like Mac&Cheese and other such fare). A standard buffet type restaurant where you take a plate and fill it from various trays in steam or cold tables. It also suffers from the standard problems of such an approach. If there isn't a large crowd then the food isn't turned often and you get food that grows either cold or over cooked in the trays. The food isn't bad, it just isn't like a cooked to order meal would be. Sometimes, a buffet style approach is ok, if the food is something that can you can keep in steam table trays for up to 30 minutes at a time and the staff is watching to refill the trays, but not keep they so full that the food cools. It is a tricky process, and it appears that Buffet City is still working on perfecting it, especially on Wednesday night at 6pm when there wasn't a lot of people in there so turn on the food wasn't that great. Yes, I liked their lo mein and honeyed chicken, but I'm not sure I'd try their salmon or other seafood. I hope that at some future time I can update this review and increase the stars, but tonight wasn't very good. read more

I was very surprised when my daughter and I stumbled upon this restaurant. Not bad for Brighton could use a few more selections but for the price and the selection I was pleasantly surprised. I would eat here again, staff not so personable however the hot pepper chicken was delicious and the fried donuts to die for. read more

Good food for the price very filling big place I would eat here again! BBQ, sushi, and a mixture of other foods!

BUFFET SH-TTY- NOT RECOMMENDED For CHILDREN! First of all, I had a bad experience. The bathrooms were filthy! The staff took a poo, then after leaving , I noticed that was not a hair net worn nor were hands washed. The toilet was left clogged with a huge broken up nugget in it. I brought it up with the staff and they blew me off! My son is 4 years of age, as a 4 year old he a picky eater and all he eats are fries and nuggets. Not too appetizing to see a dark nugget and then eat in a place that serves nuggets. He was willing to try rice. I asked if they could just charge for a quarter cup of white rice. That was all he ate. They changed me full price for a kids meal which was $5.25, this place is a pigs dream, it is filthy and if you're heavy eater, pig out to your hearts desire! I am a Brighton resident and I was ashamed to dine here. The food was not very tasty, the chicken was dry and the beef crusty. There was no one manning the Mongolian barbecue, so no one could order food from there. It seems that the food was sitting out for awhile. Let's just face the facts there are better Asian places to eat. If you want to eat in a real Chinese restaurant and not a filthy pig pen then you should try the Asian Inn or Chopsticks. I even recommend Panda Express over this place. Let's face it this place is just gross! read more
