The quality and selection of food has declined of late. They have definitely fallen victim to inflation. There are no more snow crab legs! I know they are expensive, and people just cover their plates with them, but I wish rather than taking them away entirely, they had made it so each dinner comes with a voucher which can be redeemed for 5 or 6. The rest of the food is still Chinese take-out type fare. You can read my previous review for an itemized list, but none of it is quite as good as it used to be. I used to think this place was pretty good. Now, it's just another buffet. read more

I was happy to come here, really was. I don't know what my niece was talking about, or my nephew, rather, because this place missed on so many levels. The mashed p , plantains, nuggets was fine. I'm more into American food, less into Chinese and even less into sushi. The dessert was terrible! Brownies tasted like mint! I tried 2 more desserts and it was the same, sugarless crap. The taco meat was spicy as my son said. Overall-I would recommend it because the amount of food available, seating, ability to pay and not being rushed, but the quality of the food lacked. read more

I won't waste time writing all the negatives. But i am never coming here again. P.S. The greeters are rude. read more

NO STARS! I was in the middle of eating some shrimp when I noticed there was a dead bug hiding in between my shrimp. read more

Clifton Buffet - NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN. After we showed the waitress she proceeded to give us a new fork to continue eating there. - Buffets Near Me - Clifton, New Jersey

This is one of the best places to go and enjoy some lunch or dinner with friends or family or your self! The employees are friendly and helpful! The buffet has a lot of banging variety of options and it's always fresh! I highly recommend this place! read more

Why is this place still open. First, I went to get a sushi roll and the rolls looked like they where there for a while (one of the rolls raw fish was even dried up and curling up), so I requested a fresh one and they guy said that they didn't do fresh ones... that what was there was what they had. I passed. So, my second attempt was to get something from the hibachi section. Well no one was there and I waited. So I looked at the meat while waiting and I touched the pans to see if they were cold since they have chicken/steak sitting there and no one is working it. I touched the pans... they were not even cold. Room temperature. Not even covered and they had lights illuminating the area making the section warmer. I left and no one even asked. That's how much they care for their business. read more

Great buffet. Clean fresh food. Staff is professional. Will definitely be back there again.

This place has really good good food and not expensive but I got really worst experience with this restaurant because they cheated on customers. I went there a couple days ago.I paid for the food for me and my bf IT was only 23$ and give them tips with cash but I looked up on my bank account they changed me 26$ and I didn't write for tip for them. That means They wrote it by themselves which is not good for the customer and I want all the customer to be careful with this restaurant because they might do it again read more

Horrible food Service ok ....first time and last time better off another buffet there a lot of buffet

Decent buffet options, food was room temperature, staff is attentive, restaurant is clean. Honestly, the other customers were the turn off. Kids running around unattended, couples making out at their tables, and women walking around half dressed. read more

THIS PLACE ROCKS! Just becareful, I paid here with debit card once and I had fraud the next day, lol I don't know, thank God my bank closed my debit card. The food is great for lunch, I love all the selections they have. Favorite family buffet in North jersey. read more

In all honesty this place deserves two and a half Stars. Nothing was stale nor did the waitresses have an attitude. What gets to me is the high price for the dinner and also there's small selection of seafood. Their Seafood selection was extremely limited and they had no type of sushi. There was also no one Manning The Hibachi station. I came here despite the reviews but I believe that this is not a bad location but I am a pescatarian and I like to have a big selection of seafood and various types of noodles. The bathroom was clean and the location was not too bad. I will not be returning but I wanted to make sure that everyone knows it's not a bad place read more

The food here was horrible and the staff was very non attentive I will never go back . They offer a variety but the food does not take good and it is deceiving read more

I used to love this place and the food & low prices. As of late as many more buffets have opened in the area, this buffet starts cutting back their selection of sea food and starts raising their prices instead of trying to be better than the rest. Also as business has decreased the owner at the front counter has developed a very hostile attitude when she takes your money. She seems mad that you don't come to her buffet as much, and maybe going to her competition instead. Keep raising the prices and giving attitude and you'll never see me again! read more

Came here on a Sunday around 1-2pm. It was just starting to fill up and became really busy by 3-4pm. The food was nothing but your typical Chinese buffet delicacies. Although, I was intrigued by their sushi selection--- it was really good! I mostly gravitated towards that, the calamari, and string beans--- my usually selections. I was disappointed, however, that they didn't have my favorite, coconut/walnut shrimp. Not as big a selection as other buffets I've been to, but it was still good nonetheless. My mom enjoyed the crab; she barely used the shell cracker our waitress gave her. On that note, the staff was very nice. Instead of having to be tracked down so we can get service, they picked up our used plates quickly and asked to refill our drinks. The waitress gave my mom the shell cracker without even having to be asked. I was very impressed. I especially pay attention to little gestures like that. The place was clean and pleasant. Overall, I enjoyed my first experience and would definitely come here again. read more

Typical Chinese buffet. Crab legs at dinner time were just satisfactory to satisfy cravings without breaking the bank. Service was great. Waitress kindly notified us when the donuts were fresh. read more

This one was a bit tricky to give a star rating to. Both the selection and quality of the food are above average compared to other buffets. The prices could be a bit better but aren't outrageous. There are some days though I noticed though where the buffet isn't having a good day and the soup will be too cold and dishes might be under cooked. Sometimes the hibachi chef is slow to get to the station and people have to wait. At dinner they are very slow to refill the crab legs so when they finally do people run up to the buffet and ransack the platter for them. So overall it's a place usually worth eating at but with a few simple improvements it can be upgraded to a good restaurant. read more

Before 3 very cheap and worth the money if your eating for lunch. Clean and very friendly. The wings could use some upping on the freshness only thing that gives it a four star. read more

if you come here i recommend you don't eat. The sushi was dried out and there is not a big selection. I would say the best things were the ice cream, peaches, and my coke. The pizza was terrible, the fries were cold, the fruit looked bad, and the seafood was very fishy. Therefore this is the first and last time i will be here. My fork was also all bent. read more

The sushi, crabs, and crawfish all smelt fishy and had an odd taste. The sushi was all dry. If you want good sea food you should not come here. The best thing here was probably my seltzer. And they forgot my lemon. read more

Food is alright. Waitresses are disrespectful and greedy when it comes to tip. I had paid with my credit card and as I'm signing the receipt and writing down the tip the waitress is reading along. I attempt to show my friend the receipt and the waitress snatches it out of my hand and walks away. read more

Great food and affordable price. Fresh and well prepared. Friendly staff. The number one buffet place for my family pick.

No good you get food poison from dinning here. Please note my self and my whole family did back last month and the restaurant is trying to hide it. I'm not the only one who this has happen to. This place will soon be shut down. I wish I read some other views of this place before going out to eat there. Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this place. read more

The food was standard take out fare. The seafood dishes I used to like there were almost non-existent.No snow crab legs, no manila clams in black bean sauce either, no one was at the grill area for the first 40 minutes I was there. The sushi was good, they had good tuna, eel, avocado rolls and some innovative stuff with capelin roe. The fried breaded shrimp were raw inside. I came with a large party and the owner tried to add on more people and added 1 drink per person even though I had brought wine (and the disdain was evident by my server who brought coffee mugs) and only half the group ordered drinks. There are friendlier competitors who don't mind NJ's BYOB policy. read more

I enjoy this buffet once in awhile because they serve tacos as well as Chinese cuisine. I do not like being watched when I eat. The staff stand around and watch the customers eat. It is as if there is one waiter or waitress assigned to observe each table. I feel like I am an alien on display. It also makes me feel the buffet staff is worried about not getting paid enough, paid anything, or tipped. The buffet staff should be taught an American etiquette course in "Thou Shall Not Watch Customers Eat". It is very rude to watch people eating. I also think it looks desperate that last time I went here around February 2015 that the buffet staff was selling fortune cookies on the side of my table as well as making repeated trips by my group members tables who I came with offering fortune cookies for more money. Several times the food has tasted stale and recycled. I stopped coming here awhile because of the stale food and no tacos on one visit. It is best to come when the place is not empty because the food is fresher. read more

Food is your typical cheap buffet fried food. Very disappointed in the customer service went there with my friend and her son and the waitress yelled at her three year old son for getting an ice cream cone because she didn't pay for her child's plate that didn't eat anything but that one ice cream cone. The waitress was incredibly rude definitely won't be going back. read more

The food is mediocre , and the service is a little pushy , and stalkerish... Idk I'm only here because I was outnumbered , I didn't eat , last time the food wasn't good . Didn't want to try it again . Not worth it in my opinion . read more

Typical food like most buffets. The price is very reasonable. What I usually enjoy is their steamed flounder which has a small hint of butter....what can I say? It's healthy and very very good. I eat a lot of flounder here, Im sure if I would go to a restaurant it would cost me triple for all the fish that I eat. But the rest, typical. read more

Worst buffet ever! We were charged full price for dinner and as soon as we sat down they took the steaks and crab legs away. I was under the impression that dinner prices are higher because of those two items. We paid close to $70 for four people for normal shitty Chinese food I could have ordered for no more than $30 from the Chinese restaurant by my house. First and last time ever! The manager is super rude too, no reason to support his business being an asshole. read more

I would give it a negative star if I could. The manager was very mean, I asked him a simple question and didn't even bother to answer, he looked at me and said no moving his head. The flood was very poor quality, never going back again. read more

Mediocre at best but the service is nice. Having a POS would make the payment run smoother but the food itself isn't great quality. Seafood should be steamed not kept in hot water and the meats should have better seasoning instead of breading. I'll have to take time to rethink of returning. read more

The food is good , prices is good , but not that much seafood options and no oysters or clams or good quality seafood ...Just the crab legs is what makes this place popular . The waiters are super rude and speed you up to finish. You want a good seafood buffet head to the buffet in east Hanover Nj route 10 in the same complex as Marshals clothing store ! read more

This place sucks!! First off the table was dirty. My elbow sticky!! The crab legs were watery. The food was disgusting. The pepsi was flat. On a good note the service was good but u cant eat the service. read more

Based on one trip with a party of (14) on a Sunday I could also give a 4.5 if it were possible. All went well and everyone liked it. No issues with parking, our reservation was honored at the scheduled time, the food all tasted good and the waitress was very nice. The service was good. The price is fine. The food was all stocked well for the exception of the crab legs. That was the main reason for not giving a 5-star rating. The restocking of the lone pan of crab legs were few and far in between and one would have to assume that was the intention. When it is filled it forces people to wait around thus it disappears almost instantly. I was not able to get any but I wasn't willing to wait like a hawk which is probably the only way to be successful. The sushi was good and could use a couple of more choices along with a couple of more dishes altogether. Overall it's very good and solid place to have a meal. I will certainly be going back. read more

Great buffet. Many good choices to choose from. Also food is constantly coming out so you know you're getting fresh food.

I came once...had a bad experience. Decided to try again...bad experience. My third go was this past friday. Went with a party of four, we all had one plate each, and all of a sudden the server comes in with the bill and stands their waiting until we pay. She literally folds her arms, takes one step back, and WAITS. For a party of 4 people, we paid $65. NOT including tip. Very overpriced, and horrible experience. Third time was the charm, am not coming back. read more

Took my family of four last night for dinner. Food and service was good. It is typical buffet food. They did have king crab legs. Would recommend. read more

If I was inspector I would close this buffet forever. Never mind cockroaches on the floor, but they just steal from their clients. At 2:45 they start charging for dinner while dinner plates are empty for another 45 minutes. This buffet deserves to be closed for good sake of community and restaurant business in general. read more

The food is good for the price you pay is not cheap. You better go early because they will charge you more if its late. The service is really bad , the waitress are always in a hurry for take out your plate from the table even you don't finish it. But the worse thing is the cashier so rude , no manners. I went to talk to her because the bill was split between my daughter and me and they said her card was decline so I paid the entire bill. At the same time my daughter was checking her bank account and she show me that she had enough balance. This cashier don't want to listen any reason, like you are no talking to her. In a bad mood she said You don't have to show me your account and com back on Tuesday if your money don't appear in your account. She also stated I will be here Saturday and Sunday" so I paid the entire check plus they charge my daughter also 19 dollars more. Don't go there if you are hungry to somewhere else read more
