Located in a plaza with a big parking lot. Dinner was $30 with a forced 12% service charge (not tip). There was a wide selection of sushi and sashimi. There was also a variety of really sweet bubble tea with popping boba and ice cream. Dinner included 2 types of crab, crab legs, and cooked oysters. However the oysters were left out so long that the meat was shriveled and hard and wasn't edible anymore. I liked how they had frog legs and really soft spare ribs. The meat on the pork belly was too hard to bite though. When I went, the fish was left out for a while so the meat was hard, but then later when it ran out, they brought out a new cooked fish which had soft meat. You can also ask them for a tool to help you crack the crab legs. There is also a hibachi station and the option for hotpot. The service was good since it wasn't that busy when I went and they took away the dirty plates while I went to get more food. read more

This place has changed and needs to do so much better!!! Went here for Easter with my family and had two bad experiences. The first was when I saw a little boy about 9 years old take his Cold Shrimp that he had in his plate and was finished with, get up from his table and throw the shrimp about 10 cold shrimp back into the platter with his hand that everyone had to take from!!! I told the manager and he went and replaced the entire platter and apologized. Stop Allowing people with children to Let the Kids go to the Food by themselves. Hold the Families Accountable for what the kids do. Place workers to look at the area with the food and control what happens by the food!!! Second, after being Charged for the Four of Us at the Holiday Rate, plus the added Service Charge, plus adding my Tip...the worker came over in front of Everyone to Ask for MORE Tip and would NOT Let it GO!!!! Yeah NO....Don't Do That!!! Be Better!!!! read more

Went to the E Hanover Flaming Grill yesterday thinking the food would be as good as the one with the same name in Manville which is excellent. Boy, was I wrong. Sushi seemed like it was out too long and flavorless. The salmon dish was under cooked with some topping as a coverup. The other main selections unimpressive. I could go on. Plastic plates were used for food and to top it off 12% service charge. Understand that this is a buffet, but for the $37.00 price including fees and tax, I expect better Will not return. read more

Food undercooked like warm at best Placed napkin under food in plastic plate.to much liquid in the food... Had one plate started get sick...But they still wanted the full price for dinner. Told "manager" the way I felt after eating...MORE OR LESS HE DIDN'T EVEN CAREI Would Avoid this place . For what spent all nite in the bathroom AVOID AT ALL COST read more

There isn't much variety in the food, and the prices are on the high side. Overall, it's not worth a return visit. The owner lacks long-term vision; it is truly difficult to achieve sustained profitability with this kind of business model. read more

Flaming Grill and Modern Buffet - Buffets Near Me - East Hanover, New Jersey

Their sushi was good. But I was in the mood for some hot food and meat. Their meat was not good and grossly fatty. Their food wasn't great, choices were eh--sad little buffet. But again their sushi was good. Painful to pay the price they charged for this. Sukana is in the next plaza over and they're excellent. read more

I am of two brains on this place. I think the food and the service is usually quite good. But they recently raised the price to a point that I don't think I will be going back to for a while! Two adults and glasses of water and they charge you about 76 bucks!!!!!??????!!!! And then you have to tip. It's insane! I don't know any other buffet that charges what they do!!!!! read more

The price has become ridiculous... $30 for dinner and than they ADD ANOTHER 12% fee on top of that which doesn't include tip?!?!?!? HAHAHAHHAAHH!!!! Basically they raised the price but technically didn't... Last time I went, they got rid of all the actual plates and replaced them with disposable ones... so the 12% isn't going to any dish washers! The food is decent, but not at this price point. There's another Flaming Grill buffet in Riverdale that charges $20 for dinner...so I dunno how this place is getting away with this price point. I honestly can't see myself coming back here again... read more

You can feed some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time but you can't feed all of the people all of the time. . unless you are an all-you-can-eat style Chinese Buffet. So if you leave here and you're still hungry it's your own damn fault, Lol.    I've been here a few times for Lunch and found it to be a pretty solid buffet. It offers good food at decent prices and my work crew can get filled up here so they always like when we hit this place up.    Service is on point and they usually maintain their buffet trays in order to keep most things well stocked. Also I've never had any issues getting used dishes removed from the table or drink refills delivered in a timely manner.   Overall this is pretty good place for getting my munch on and that's the name of that Tune. read more

You are getting lobster and crab legs for 30 bucks!! Adult!! But I bought a kid that doesn't eat anything and it cost me $16 for him to not eat anything! Also has hibachi and dessert. Maybe it is quantity but I thought that quality was pretty good.. I saw one of the servers taking a lunch break at a table cuz she was so hungry and stuff her face in a matter of 3 minutes before getting back to work.. ;;-0~~~~ Also, kids 3 to 5 should not be paying $16 and 6 to 8 or whatever shouldn't be charge $18. Kids 3 to 5 should maybe pay 10 bucks. read more

I was in town and told my bestie that I wanted to go to Flaming Grill buffet because NOSTALGIA and it was just as good as it was 20 years ago. Food is always fresh and hot. The staff are nice and ready to help you. They pick up the plates and just very attentive. It is a HUGE restaurant with an upstairs and downstairs. The food is so good. Fried rice, sushi, seafood, lobster, crab legs, chicken, pork, fish, hibachi - YOU NAME IT, they got it. Ample parking as it is in a plaza. Great price. Clean restaurant read more

The price went up to $20.00 for weekday the eat-in lunch buffet and $30.00 on the weekend for the dinner buffet. Look- the food is okay. They've sort made a few more new menu additions and they've upped their sushi game a little tiny bit- but for $20.00? Nah. I understand that inflation is killing everyone... but I'm just not going to shell out $25 for a mediocre lunch with tip. read more

This is actually one of my favorite Chinese buffets. They have a good selection of food for all tastes, including a hibachi, where you pick your own vegetables, meat and seafood, then hand your plate to the chef where he will cook it for you. They have a good selection of appetizers, main dishes, and desserts. Service was also great. They come around asking if you want a refill of your drink and they clear your dishes regularly. The dining room is big so there are plenty of places to sit. You won't have to wait long for a place to sit. I've been here several times and will continue to come back. read more

This buffer was a great choice for our large group for dinner! The buffet has something for everyone ranging from pizza, lo mein, lamb chops, and even bubble tea! They even gave us a huge snow crab in butter to share! Definitely unforgettable. read more

The food is great and the price is cheap. We eat here at most, because it is very affordable and the portion is very large. My favorite

I've lived in the area for a long time, and I have seen this "restaurant" close and reopen several times. Each time I hope for an improvement, and each time I am disappointed. I was hoping things would finally improve with this new incarnation, so I decided to stop in for some takeout. They charge by the pound and the price depends on the categories of food that you take. I decided to try some of the normal buffet foods (lo mein, General Tso chicken, cream cheese wontons, duck, and short ribs.). I also got a few pieces of what they called lobster with ginger. I knew the few pieces of lobster (seafood) would make the price a bit higher, but I was fine with that. Unfortunately, the woman at the counter argued with me and made me pay an even higher price for "hibachi, steak, and sushi", which I did NOT get. She told me I had duck (one tiny piece) which was higher, yet it was not on the list. She told me I had short ribs (two tiny pieces) which were higher, yet was not on the list. I asked her if she wants to lose a customer by charging incorrectly, and she took my credit card and knowingly overcharged me. I even took a picture of the pricing so I could have proof. Anyway, I decided to just enjoy my lunch anyway, so I got home and started eating. Everything was extremely flavorful - IF you count grease as a flavor. Pieces of lobster were unrecognizable and there was no meat to be found. It was all breading and grease. When they hack up the lobster before coating it and deep frying it, they clearly remove all of the meaty parts. Tail meat was clearly non-existent. Lo mein was grease-laden with no taste. General Tso chicken was horrible, and I even bit into a small bone! The wontons were greasy and weirdly sweet. Duck was just dry, tasteless, and disgusting. Short ribs were beyond chewy, inedible and flavorless. This may be the worst restaurant in this location in 20 years. When I think it can't get any worse, you did it. Congratulations. read more

The food was not fresh. The service was terrible. The bubble tea tasted awful. The sushi was all warm. $20 lunch pp, and they add a 12% service fee to the bill for a self serve and it is not even included the tip. And they still suggestion to add addition for the tip. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Food not good . $20 lunch pp. ... they have decided to add a service fee to a self serve buffet SMH. I will never go back

This place was horrible. The meats were dry and chewy, and the soft things were hard. They did have snow crabs which were good. But the butter they offered was flavorless and cold. The fried chicken was YELLOW inside. The service was okay. But the hibachi was good but the worker was bad. He was angry when you would give him food. He would slam it on the counter when it was done. They also had frog legs which were gross. But the mood and vibes of the place were great. read more

It appears as if the restaurant is now making good on the AYCE snow crab. First of all, it's no longer mixed with other shellfish and an oily sauce. It's just snow crab. It's a decent size too. When I was there on a Friday night, there was no problem at all getting crab. They replenished it frequently. Also, crawfish, which used to be in the oily blend is now available separately. They also now have some large crab, not sure what species, but looks something like a stone or dungeness crab, and it's steamed. read more

Delicious buffet with a few adjustments needed. Please go back to serving crab legs without the oil sauce. Even if you must mix in the corn etc keep the sauce separate. It ruins the taste of the crab legs. Also please check the soda machines as fizzy good tasting soda is very important. Please bring sesame balls to dinner they are delicious. read more

Do yourself and juts skip this place I was in town for work went there on a night for dinner. I could barely swallow eat any of the food. This is like low grade dog food! Do not go here! I was in and left within 30 minutes for $30. I should have trusted the reviews. Service was ok but nothing to brag about read more

Update: this is now 4 star. The manager saw I gave double tips, and came back to tell me that the bill already included gratuity because of the size of our party. I love honest people. This is a 3.5 star rating. First of all, I must say that this restaurant is much better than the one in the same location before. However, there is room for improvement. The restaurant was very busy on this Sunday evening. There were lots of food, and the staff replenished them often. Of course the popular seafood like crab legs and lobsters went fast each time they were replenished. There were also lots of shrimps, clams, and fish. They are mostly fresh and yummy. To the person who said there were no egg rolls, there were plenty tonight. The fried food section was great. Lots of standard choices. The calamari was really tasty. The Chinese food section was good. Hibachi was also great. Sushi---they were ok, of course not expecting Japanese restaurant quality. Dessert---quite disappointed. The cakes were too sweet and tasteless. The flan was good, but not strong enough in taste. There were lots of fruits, but the grapes and pineapples were frozen hard. The ice cream was the worst. Why is there no soft serve machine? All they got were frozen ice cream bars. Bathroom---definitely not well kept. The trash cans were overflowing. Given the fact that it is only 22.99 per person on Sunday, the price is good. The restaurant needs to improve the bathroom situation, and the desserts need to be better. Staff is nice, and attentive. The coupon is really sad though. Only $5 off $50. We had 12 people in our party. I think a 5% discount would have been much better for large parties. read more

Quality is great and the ambiance is very pleasant. You eat real foods, shrimp, fish and variety of vegetables. The salad, sushi, and fruit bars are fresh and delicious. The desserts are not as tasty as the other foods. read more

It was better than the prior buffet but not aces for me. The one I visited in Brick is significantly larger and had way more options. The crab legs were good but in garlic sauce which made them a bit tricky to crack by hand. The lobster looked good but no way to crack, also heavily sauced. Seafood was plentiful here and refilled often. Sushi, was fresh. Good options but not labeled so you were playing sushi roulette when choosing! Salads/fruits/desert, were not refilled often. Lots of half empty spaces. Few soups ( no miso or egg drop). No dumplings, dim sum ,egg rolls, or sweet and sour chicken but they had the sauce out for it? Weird. Ice cream - no soft serve. Just mini cups (Hershey/Kirkland's and other bars). Soda was not ice cold which was kind of weird. I feel like they need a few more food options for the future. I wasn't wow'd for the price (also kids 3-6 was $14.95- that's a bit pricey for 3/4 year olds if you ask me). However it was clean in the food area, staff was attentive and seafood was good. Also, bathrooms were very dirty. Waste baskets overflowing and some out of service. Jugs of hand soap half empty under the sink, but none for patron use up top on the sink. Looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. read more

Flaming Grill and Modern Buffet - Buffets Near Me - East Hanover, New Jersey

Food started tasting weird when we came in and I thought it was my son and wife being picky eaters. But then the sea food was warm temperature And the food tasted like it was stored over night. The fruits were dry and hard and then when my wife went for a salad and put lemon and salt and pepper the little bug started to crawl out. The soda tasted like they left ice water or sink water in the cups for too long and the plastic cups had a weird smell with sprite I ordered. Horrible experience won't be going there ever again and if I get sick I'm suing them. Then he tells my wife I'm so sorry and he told us he will give us a discount I told him we're not paying for this shit. He's lucky my wife didn't get loud and warned everyone else but some people noticed and started spitting their food on the plate. read more

The food was very bland. The bubble tea tasted awful. I couldn't drink it. The hibachi was flavorless, had a small variety of options, the beef and chicken were not fresh and the cook was not personable at all! The sushi was all warm. This is a Chinese buffet and the Chinese food was the worst of it. The crab legs were good and so was the service. I would not recommend. read more

-flat soda! Asked for water and even that tasted terrible. -crab legs drown in salt and garlic to try to hide being unfresh. Very small. -most food did not taste or look fresh read more

I've never really found an excellent Chinese buffet. Flaming Grill is "pretty good" and a tremendous improvment from the previous tenant. Pros: Variety. Mongolian Grill for made to order items Serving raw fish sushi and even sashimi . Many buffets will have only cooked offerings and nothing much of quality Lots of seafood (see "Cons" also) Price is fair Items constantly replenished Cons: They offer some higher end seafood items : lobster and crab, but they are covered in sauce and there are no crackers available to actually get into the shells. Probably done on purpose so people will get frustrated and eat less . That tactic worked for me ! I went through a half dozen napkins trying to open a piece of lobster. Desserts not particularly good. A soft serve machine would be a nice addition. Overall it's a decent place and you get a good bang for your buck read more

If you like seafood, then you will like this buffet. Lobster, crabs, crab legs, fish, clams, sushi, & sashimi was on the meu tonight. But, if you're highly allergic to seafood like I am, then BEWARE. The lobster was right next to the beef & broccoli, fish was next to chicken. Throughout the stations, seafood items were next to non-seafood items. I was limited to a few dishes with worry of cross contamination. I spoke to restaurant manager about these concerns with suggestions to do a separate seafood section and a non-seafood section, not sure if it did any good. As for the quality of the food, seafood gets a 5, hubby said lobster was cooked perfectly, crab legs were flavorful in some kind of garlic sauce, sashimi was very fresh, crayfish was not muddy. I give non-seafood items a 3. From the few items I tried, the short ribs were very tough, chicken dishes were ok. Dessert gets a 3 also due to limited choices. Service is a 4, attendant cleared dishes promptly and refill drinks without having to asked. read more

Lot of food to select from - unfortunately its all bad and very overpriced. Not well-labeled, either.

Honestly, the food was a bit tasteless, the service well you serve yourself so there really was no service except to pay the bill, ambience. The place needs to be refresh up needs a paint job and perhaps a good cleaning. read more

If I could give a 0 star rating to this establishment I would. Not only did they change the prices for Father's Day which they ha e every right to do. But the food sucked and they charged my children by height. BY HEIGHT. WTF. HEIGHT. THEY ATE 2 dumplings and noodles. Because they are tall for 10 YEARS OLD WE HAD TO PAY $31 per child rather than 19. Are they kidding. The food was cold horrible and tasteless. No one spoke English or understood what you asked for and they charge BY HEIGHT FOR CHILDREN. And the manager was inconsiderate and thought he was right. I'm tired of paying through the nose and getting nothing in return. Since covid everyone thinks they can just take advantage of others. Most restaurants have kids meals for 12 and under. HEIGHT. ZERO STARS. read more

Very disappointed with our meal at this "updated" Chinese buffet. Food quantity was the same as last owner (yuck!) and we had lots of concerns about holding temperatures. We will not visit again and I hate that they advertised themselves as being a new and improved restaurant. It was all exactly the same as the junk hole that existed in the space previously. They didn't even install new flooring during the makeover. read more

This place is a dump. The food is overcooked and even the lo mein was bad. Save your $29 and go elsewhere.
