    I've stopped by Clifton Buffet a handful of times throughout the last few years and they've remained consistent throughout the years. Expect a good range of food (mostly Chinese) at a decent price. For a buffet, I find the food to be pretty good and they seem to be pretty efficient at making sure to re-fill empty dishes quickly. Customers love coming for their crab-legs so that can be hard to get sometimes since they're gone within 2 minutes of being put out. On Sunday, the price is $18 pp (as of January 2020) but lunch during the week is about $11-12 which is a good price. Overall, this remains a pretty good buffet in the area and I'll keep coming back.

    Chinese cuisine has been a staple of American culture for decades. From the days of chop suey to…read morethe rise of contemporary Chinese-American dishes, the Chinese food we know and love today has evolved in fascinating ways. One of the most popular dining experiences is the Chinese buffet. Referred to as the "Chinese smörgåsbord," believe it or not, it first emerged in the 1950s before exploding in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This American tradition offers diners a variety of delicious dishes adapted to suit American tastes and may differ significantly from authentic Chinese cuisine in an all-you-can-eat setting. Located on Market Street, Dynasty Buffet is the closest to our home, and my partner and I paid them a return visit after 3 years tonight. Upon entering inside their high ceilings, with big windows and nice lighting, we were greeted by the host. The cost begins at $33.99 per person for a weekend dinner. We were led to a booth by the window. The establishment continues to have a large selection of a mixed variety of Asian and other ethnic food, plus a salad, a carving station, and a dessert bar. The staff puts out smaller portions and refills frequently so everything tastes fresh. Although American Chinese buffets offer a wide variety of dishes, many of the more authentic and region-specific dishes from China are not typically found on their menus. The food was tasty, the staff would check on us frequently, and the service was amicable. Ultimately, the buffet serves as a delicious reminder of the ways in which cultures can blend and evolve over time while still preserving their unique flavors and techniques.

    This buffet is simply not worth the price…read more I paid $46 for the weekend buffet (over $39 after tax and tip), but the food selection and quality were far below my expectations. There were only 2 hot food stations, plus a salad bar, a fruit station, a sushi section, and a small grill. Compared with other Chinese buffets in North Jersey charging around $24 on weekends, this place offers much fewer choices. The food quality was also disappointing: No snow crab legs The steak was tough and very low quality. Even basic items like salt & pepper shrimp were refilled very slowly, leaving empty trays for long periods. At this price point, I expected a much better experience. For just a little more money, you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ or hot pot with much higher-quality food, table service, and a far better overall experience. Save your money. There are far better buffet options in the area.

This is a typical…read moreself-service buffet type of restaurant which is very common in Brazilian communities in Newark-NJ, Astoria-NY and many other locations. You make your plate, weigh and pay about $10 per pound. My feijoada plate from the attached picture had a little less than a pound so I paid around $9 which is a great deal especially if you compare to other restaurants in the area. The restaurant is somewhat small, simple, but there are enough tables for everyone even during lunch hours. Staff is friendly, they give you privacy to pick your food without anyone bothering you, food is tasty and the variety is ok. I wish they had Brazilian barbecue similar to other restaurants in the area but I can't really complain because the food and price were great. Compared to other Brazilian restaurants in the area this place has a big advantage because the process is very simple. Other restaurants such as Casa Nova, Cantinho Mineiro, Delícia de Minas also offer a buffet option but their process is very complicated. They have a prix fixe option for a set price and then if you add meat it's a different price, if you want to take something to go you need to pick a prix fixe container for a different price. It's just too confusing and I don't really like that, hence my preference for this Brazilian buffet restaurant. Don't expect any luxury or lots of variety. This is a practical restaurant offering food for a fair price. I definitely recommend it. Note that there's just street parking and the Wilson Ave area tends to be busy so keep that in mind.

We had the steak fried rice, the best I had in a while, lobster Mac and cheese, so cheesy and fill with lobster, lamb chops nice tender and very tasty and the spare ribs that were fall off the bone tender and seasoned very well. Dessert, that chocolate cheesecake brownie was delectable. The portion are well worth it, we couldn't eat all our food. A bit pricey but you get a bang for your buck. My babes enjoyed himself and was very pleased. Definitely going back. This is the place you treat yourself too, so save up and enjoy.

I like that there was no charge for a private room, and they rolled out the red carpet to the door of that room when I mentioned we were there for a birthday. Nice touch! The service, food and ambience were top-notch! Everything was delicious, served hot, well seasoned, and presented beautifully. The servers were so attentive, paid attention to every detail, and gave great recommendations. They made us feel as if we were the only people in the restaurant. The decor is immaculate, it was extremely clean, and even the restrooms were impressive. I highly recommend Crab House NYC to anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion with Royal treatment.
