Orange chicken was good on the outside of the chicken on the inside is very dry. Sesame chicken the same way. Anything chicken is very dry and the shrimp no matter if it's in sauce, it's still dry. Noodles are terrible. Service is absolutely terrible. they're sitting down eating their own lunch and they won't get up to fill up your tea. They're definitely urgently wanting to grab plates off the table though. This place just terribly sucks. do not come here be warned. The ambience is your typical Chinese restaurant. read more

Flaming Buffet - Nasty place - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The food was terrible all around! Would not recommend, the shrimp that was cooked disseminated in my mouth absolutely disgusting. The crab legs that they had out smelt so old and disgusting the smell is still lingering on my fingers dispute me washing my hands. The fried rice was hard as well as the bread the noodles had zero taste just oily. Only edible thing there's was the dumplings that where in fact still COLD. Don't waist your money here. read more

This is a pretty good Chinese buffet with sushi, American food, and Mongolian grill. But there was bit too much breading on the deep fried food in my opinion. Just saying. read more

12/06/25 - Our second time to eat here. Great service and freshly cooked, delicious variety of foods - soup, sushi, seafood, fried chicken, fish, egg rolls, desserts and there's an area where you can request to cook for your preference. We love this place so much. You can really feel the Holiday spirit in here. read more

I've struggled with doing this review for a few weeks now and I came to conclusion that it has to be said. I'm not a huge fan of buffets however since the birthday girl chose this place I went along with it. Upon arriving we were greeted and told to pick a seat. The place is rather outdated nothing at all to brag about. Being greeted by the man at the entrance was the absolute best part of the service from here on out. We placed our drink orders which were way overpriced but anywho we then proceeded to see what was available on the buffet. I was shocked by the fact there was no orange chicken, or sesame or garlic chicken because this is a Chinese buffet correct? I settled for egg drop soup, crab Rangoons, fried rice and sweet sour chicken. The rice, rangoons and soup were the best things that were offered on the buffet. The chicken was dry and tough and honestly nothing on the buffet seemed fresh. My grandson got pizza, smoked sausage and lomein off the buffet and the only edible thing on his plate was the lomein. The available items on the buffet were not what I would have imagined and everything looked leftover and poorly prepared. Still celebrating we then thought Oh let's try fruit and dessert which was no better. Unripened grapes with seeds, oranges hard and not sweet, jello tough and hard no jiggle at all (in my grandsons voice) and the banana pudding was more like slop and cookies. Overall this was a complete waste of $86 and the birthday girl who turned 73 by the way was so disappointed that she chose this place when there were so many other options. We had enough so we asked for our check. We received it placed the money on the clip she brought the change back and proceeded to stand there. We're allowing the birthday girl to open her cards and gift. The woman then asks "no tip?" Mind you no matter how bad the food is we always leave a tip and we had intended to leave a minimal tip considering we served ourselves and the only thing this woman had done was brought out 5 drinks which she didn't even have to refill and it's rude to ask for a tip while people are still talking or drinking etc. I asked for a to go cup and the woman pouted, walked off and never came back. Hopefully she was gathering cleaning supplies to clean up the women's bathroom as it was a disgusting mess. Needless to say I made the executive decision to remove the tip as there was absolutely nothing tip worthy about the food or service. read more

The bathrooms are always dirty. I've been coming here for a few years now and I haven't seen a clean bathroom once. The servers are always watching you and ask for more tip every time. read more

Flaming buffet is a great value for the price. They have your trash frozen chicken nuggets and wontons like every place, but they also have plenty of vegetables and other options. During my last visit I saw a lady snapping the fresh green beans. There is even a bar where you can make a stir fry bowl and a guy will sear it up for you. My only two complaints are the weird programming they have on tv and the overall cleanliness and experience. They chose tv channels like CNN and charity infomercials that seems to be a subliminal signal to leave. Also the place could be just more clean, buckets of food less sloppy, better forks, better quality vegetables, etc. read more

I visited Dallas with my family. We came to this restaurant. All was great until...... I am paying for the food with a card (with intentions of leaving a cash tip, as I ALWAYS do), a lady (who isn't even our server) races to the table and leans over the table and asks what the tip line says . I tell her , it says $0. She and several employees begin laughing.. as if they assumed and had been talking about how my family (a black family ) would not tip. This isn't the first time we have been stereotyped at the hands of Asians. I thought maybe service in Dallas would be different... I didn't even bother to mention my cash tip ( at LEAST $5 per head for a family of 9).... even though the server did nothing , we didn't even have sufficient silverware... Beware. read more

I got food poisoning! Bathrooms were not clean. Way to greasy. Ice cream did not taste great. read more

The food was mediocre and service was not well at all. My family and I couldn't finish our food without the waiter picking up our plates without asking. The ambiance was not it. After receiving our check that's when the waiter wanted to be nice. No tip was left for the waiter after not being serviced well. And the waiter had the audacity to demand a tip, which again he did not receive. The waiter continued to demand a tio and even started throwing stuff when waking back to their station. I have never felt so uncomfortable at an establishment before. My family and I will never be going back to this place ever again. read more

Service was almost non-existent. All the food had clearly been out for an extended period, dumplings and salmon were both very dry and had clearly been in the warming trays too long. The food was of overall poor quality and not very appetizing. We don't live far away, but we will not be back. One of us left with an upset stomach after eating at this restaurant. Overall, completely unimpressed, especially for over $16 per person read more

Im surprised at how low rating this location has but im happy we secided to try it out . As soon as you walk inn the place was super packed and we had to wait, to my surprise it wasnt long at all . They had alot of different variety of food and it all was delicious. The server was very attentive and kept our drinks refilled best fried shrimp ive had full of flavor the ambiance was nice but it was full so a bit loud ,something i dont mind at all will be going again read more

I have to say, very good buffet. I really recommend it. Flaming Buffet, maybe one of the best buffets they just need to be more clean

Our first time there. Traditional Chinese buffet that one would expect. The food was hot and freshly made. The place was clean and the attendant did a great job keeping our table cleared. The reason I didn't give it a 5 star is because I've been to buffets that were bigger and had more selections along with nicer atmosphere and decor. read more

I love coming with my family here but don't bother coming if you're not gonna tip because they will chase you to the parking lot I've seen it multiple times and the food is just okay. read more

My only complaint and concern really is the bathrooms and cleanliness. The atmosphere is very nice with pretty decor but the wallpaper is peeling and the buffet tables aren't the cleanest. The bathrooms however are filthy and the latches in the woman's room are broken leading to people being walked in on. The food over all was very good, well seasoned and hot. I wouldn't mind returning if the bathroom stalls were fixed and the place was over all cleaned up. The staff was very nice and helpful, coming by often to collect plates and refill drinks. read more

I am only doing a one star review because 0 is not in the option. I dined in for lunch . served 1 st plate I found a very long HAIR in my Chow mein. Decided to stay and give it a second try with something totally differen (because it happens) but on my second plate a Black Medium long hair in my fried Banana. I do not recommend this place. Manager was very rude and still charged me almost full price. Do not recommen! read more

To be fair..u get what u pay for. Not seasoned very well. Crab legs were old..fried food beyond dry..dessert was plain..service was very slow..vibe was dull read more

The decadent side of me really digs this place! This place has a great selection of food items to choose from and honestly is sure to please almost any palate. I like to start at their Mongolian grill station and choose my items that will be going into my stir fry. While it is cooking I usually go make myself a plate of chilled shrimp & cocktail sauce, a few crab Rangoon, and an egg roll. Then I go back to the grill station and pick up my creation. That is round 1. Round 2 typically is more shrimp, some sweet and sour chicken, and a gyoza or two. Then comes round 3, yes, the decadence continues... Round 3 is typically a fruit and or dessert round. I love their almond cookies, and add to that a selection of pineapple and watermelon and I am pretty much ready to mail it in. read more

Flaming Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I'm being nice giving it 2 stars. The service was good - attentive in picking up the empty plates and watchful for when I was ready to tab out. But as far as the food goes ... there were several items I tried that I couldn't finish. And the sushi was just gross. Their hibachi grill is definitely their best option. I liked their chicken wings, chicken skewers, fried shrimp prongs, and dumplings. The cantelope was fresh. Egg drop soup was meh at best. New New Buffet is a 100X better. read more

Been dining here since 2020, above average Asian American cusine Buffet.

First time eating at flaming buffet and it was the first time I bit into molded dessert as well. Everything was yummy until I tasted the sour, bitter, disgusting mold on the top of my palette. I can't even tell you that the oysters and other foods were alright because the aftereffects of eating the mold. We paid 11.99/ person for all that, molded dessert and a stomach ache. Eat at your own risk. read more

I've been to my fair share of Asian buffets and this was the worst, to say the least. The food options were limited and of not great quality, let's just put it at that. I came in with better expectations for an Asian buffet but for 10$ I guess this is what you get. I wouldn't come back here again. read more

Flaming Buffet - Meh. - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This is one of those once you've been into one Chinese buffet you've been to them all and you know what foods exactly I am speaking of. One thing to mention that this buffet seemed to have more fresh than other buffets that I have been to are the raw oysters. When you first walk in you will notice that it is a spacious restaurant with a cleanly type atmosphere at least, not stuff thrown on the floor here and there. I do not understand why the bad reviews, it is not that bad compared to any other buffets and I have been through some very bad buffets that will give you the running squirts even as you are walking out the door. $11.30 is not too bad for this Buffet, it has the grill where you put your raw ingredients on a plate ne and a guy behind the counter Cooks your food. Service was very good here on my visit. This Buffet is worth trying again and if you are in in the area maybe give it a trip as well. read more

I usually don't post negative reviews about restaurants unless it's about the sanitary standard, which all merchants should uphold and take seriously. I think any unethical businesses should be disclosed. Here are the pics attached. for those who go to buffet to eat oysters and, this is not the place bc you don't want to end up eating bugs along with your raw seafood. This is a food borne illness nightmare since raw food like oysters are not processed with heat at all. Also oysters are usually are flashed freezed, packaged and delivered to the restaurant. The only explanation is that the restaurant kitchen maintains an unsanitary condition and the bug crawled to the raw food in the process of thawing. This really make me question the sanitary practice of this restaurant and I wouldn't ever want to eat anything else from such restaurant. read more

Flaming Buffet - Hair - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Horrible owners, they are so unwelcoming. Worst restaurant in all of dfw. The food is extra greasy & seems to be loaded in MSG. I don't think they any traditional cooks there. Stay away & spend your $$$ somewhere that is tasty . Came back same mean owners & I came at the beginning of service. Everything seemed not fresh. The salmon was the most white fish I ever seen. crawfish looks like a soup of vomit. Calamari, egg rolls & catfish was double fried or triple fried. Watch out for this business with bad practices. read more

Decent Chinese buffet. I'm not a fan of Chinese food, so it's hard to write a review. With these small Chinese buffet all over the DFW, it's hard to compare them, they all taste very similar. when you're interested in paying a small amount for a AYCE, this is one of the place I don't like the small sushi options I like the hibachi option cause I enjoy putting together some stuff and having them grill it for me They had a little bit of everything. Just like other Chinese buffet. I didn't think this place stand out Two stars cause it's super cheap and AYCE read more

I wish 0 stars was an option.. PLEASE READ This place is absolutely DISGUSTING!! my family and I went for dinner tonight (A Friday Night) and from the reviews and pictures posted withing the last 6 months we were excited to try this place. We get there around 8pm to our surprise it was minimal people there, we're thinking they don't close until 10:30 people may have already come for the night or maybe coming a little later. We were still excited to try, we entered the restaurant and was given gloves to wear while making our plates. We go to the buffet and begin to make our plates, food looked mediocre but we tried to remain enthusiastic about it. We walk down the buffet isles only to find out EVERYTHING on the pictures posted with the reviews posted within the last 6 months were all a LIE! None of the food was fresh, multiple food items that was said they have.. they didn't have 75% of it, no ribs, no catfish, no hibachi, no sushi, few crab legs looked to be dirty and sitting in dirt water and no icecream. Rice was dry, chicken wings, honey chicken amongst other food looked to had been sitting out for hours. Food was cold, even the soup was cold, no steam coming from food, multiple food pans only had crumbs while workers sit and stand around not even worried enough to refill empty food at buffet. None of the workers had gloves on.. What took the cake was when I was going back to my seat from complaining, I witnessed women cleaning the buffet with Windex, spraying the Windex on to the outside glass over the food and using the same rag to wipe the glass on the inside right over the food. We left and had to pay normal price of 14.99 a piece minus a 10% discount because I complained about what I observed. My mom is in the bathroom vomiting right now due to the quality of the food and she literally took about 3 to 4 bites of food off of her plate.. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME HERE AT THIS BUFFET. I WILL ALSO BE CALIING THE HEALTH INSPECTOR. P.S We didn't even get to take pictures or videos of the experience because while making our plates we were being watched and followed around like we were terrorist. read more

I had high hopes for this buffet but like majority of Chinese buffets it was disappointing. They had shrimp and crawfish but the shrimp was small and the crawfish was small annnnd overcooked and under seasoned. There really isn't anything else there that's impressive. The only thing I liked was the chow mein, but you cant really screw that up. The ice cream is super watery too. read more

There was this waiter who was getting mad at me for not leaving a tip, like girl I leave tips to servants who do their job and keep out tables clean, me and my kids had to wait over 10 minutes to get our plates from our tables removed.

Tips should not be enforced. read more

Food sucks it taste like it's been there all day without being changed and it's just gross and tasteless .I feel like I was eating slime nothing had texture or taste to it.And it smelled weird like they don't ever clean the bathrooms either there's always the floor dirty and papers everywhere in the stalls. read more

This place is f-ing disgusting. They have the teas in a bucket and used a cup to fill up your cups. The waitress put her gloved hand that she was cleaning tables with in the bucket of tea and filled up my husband's and wife's cup of tea. My wife is pregnant that is just so disgusting. Then when my husband asked for a new glass after seeing that then she took her gloves off and put her bare hands in the bucket of tea. The fact that the drinks are in buckets like ice buckets and then serving that to people. They should be ashamed of themselves. read more

Don't judge a place by the way it looks.. I was surprised. Inside is big and the staff is a little slow.. So I had to take a star off for that.. As for the food.. Poor sushi guy was having a hard time to keep up with the demand but he did his best. Chinese food not oily like other buffets. And there was a good selection of dishes.. The hibachi was fresh and looked good. The night we were there there was a line to. Get a table.. read more
