My family and I entered this Chinese buffet. We were third in line waiting to be seated when the hostess yelled "no dogs allowed". My dog had a service dog vest on so I decided to approach her to explain this to her. As I was walking to her, she yelled again "no dogs allowed" I then told her "it's not a pet, it's a service animal", she asked to see a certificate. I told her "legally you are not allowed to ask for a certificate as there is no "official" identification for a service animal", anyway, I was with my family and I didn't want them to have to leave the place so I pulled out my phone to show her the training documents I have, then she said "I need a hard copy". Then she ignored me and proceeded to seat everybody else in line except for my family and I. When she came back, I told her that it is illegal to deny access to a disabled person with a service animal and she and the manager, who was there at that point, said that they don't allow dogs because they don't want to have issues with the health department. They seem to think that having a service dog in this establishment is unsanitary. I felt discriminated for needing a service animal to assist me in my everyday life. The workers in this establishment looked down on me and my family. Many times people mistakenly believe service dogs are only for the blind when in reality there are a lot of disabilities service dogs are trained to assist on, such as epilepsy, diabetes, cancer, autism and multiple sclerosis to name a few. It's under federal law that a service animal be granted near-unrestricted access to places where the general public attends. I recommend this establishment reading the Americans with Disabilities Act section on service animals published since 2010 by the Justice Department before getting in big trouble. (https://www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm). My family and I ended up going to the Chili's accross the street were they welcomed my service dog, they let us choose a table suitable for us, and the food and service were great. read more

Foods are always fresh and hot every time I got up for another refill. Service is excellent! Will definitely go back again

This buffet is for real the best buffet ever best food in the world and there customer service is amazing and it is extremely clean and beautiful I love this place I come here a lot and it's just in general my favorite restaurant. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE read more

Ehhhh.. as I told my man I'm about to write a review for this place, he said "just write this place suck. I hated it. Remember I was sick all night?!" Very true, he was. And I have to agree. The food was subpar. The food bland. Disappointing because I was waiting for this place to reopen. read more

The buffet is no longer fresh like before especially vegetable. To many fried food and hard like rock. They must change the chief.$$ I will pick Harvest Buffet in Great Neck N Y is No 1 pick and $$$. read more

Sub par to say the least. Cold, chewy food. Witnessed one of the employees take a piece of food that fell on the counter and fling it back into the food to be served with her hands. Tapioca pudding tasted spoiled. My boyfriend, who eats anything, is worried that he may get sick after this meal. We will NEVER come back. Stay away and go somewhere more predictable. If you must come, the ice cream is probably a safe bet. read more

Grand Buffet - Spoiled runny tapioca - Buffets Near Me - Ramsey, New Jersey

A pretty regular place in the realm of Asian buffets. They have the standard fare of what you'll expect, along with their own little quirks. There wasn't any Orange Chicken or General Tso Chicken which was disappointing, especially considering how common they are at any other buffet I've been to. The sushi selection was small, with the sushi being average, but nothing special. They do have tiny whole octopuses which was surprising, though they're not something I enjoy. Lo mein, rice, pizza, chicken nuggets, coffee cake, mostly standard stuff. Nothing tastes too extravagant but eh, it is a buffet. They do have a sauce dispenser with duck sauce which made me incredibly happy. The lunch special on Monday is only $10 which I was very happy about. Unfortunately, their coin prize dispensers are traps. One was jammed, the one I did try stole my quarter and failed to dispense my toy ninja, souring an otherwise decent experience. Overall, an average buffet, but please do steer clear of the coin prize dispensers. read more

First visit since the remodeling. The Grand is back, we drive 25 miles to dine here. The food is just as good as it has always been. Completely redecorated with new darker furnishings to improve the atmosphere. read more

It's ok ,but when they have the lobster you have to Wait for it, I like the sushi and seafood read more

Whenever we have family visiting from out of state, this is our go to spot, and we always enjoy it !! When you've got a large group to feed, this place can't be beat for only 14.95 per person !! (Children are much less!) We went last night, and it just gets better and better. Their selection has gotten better - last night they had salmon filets, sea bass, and Thai shrimp. Oh my, I must have had 35 of those tender shrimp - delicious . All kinds of good eats - I had egg roll, pizza, low mein, pepper steak, vegetable fried rice, chicken dumplings, cheese wontons, chicken and broccoli, sea bass, and more. I take very little of each, until I find my favorites !! I don't like to waste food !! That is only a small selection of what they offer. I always have to stop myself, so I have room for their soft serve ice cream. The staff was very friendly (offered us soda refills several times!!), they take away old plates, and they replenish the dishes quickly. A great value for sure !!! You can BYO also, but we did not. read more

My favorite chinese buffet, food is always fresh and staff are super friendly! This is my go to spot when eating out and I recommend it to all my friends! Looking forward to the grand reopening after renovations! read more

I have been to this restaurant many times and the food is always good and plentiful. Yesterday, for the first time, I was there for a holiday, Father's Day. They advertised there usual all you can eat and mentioned lobster and crab. NO WHERE did it say the all you can eat excluded the lobster and crab. They charged more than their usual price, which is understandable but then they limited the crab and lobster in 2 ways. First it took them 20 minutes to bring out a standard catering 1/2 pan when all the other foods were coming out every 10 minutes or so. Second they served the crab and lobster only allowing one or two pieces per person. So how is this all you can eat if you had to wait on a line 20 min to get 1 or 2 pieces and they want you out in 2 hours. I think this was a misrepresentation to the public and a way that they could charge more money and still not have it cost them more. Fraudulent practices like that should not be tolerated. Either supply what was promised as you did all the other options or make it clear that the public will be paying more for the standard buffet and the lobster and crab (which is the reason for the price increase) will be limited to what they want to allow you to eat. A very very disappointing experience at a place that usually has integrity. read more

This rating is based on comparison to other Asian buffets. The best of the local Asian buffets has just gotten significantly better! Prior to its re-opening last week, The Grand Buffet already offered an array of appetizing dishes that were continually refreshed. The re-modeling added a Hibachi grill that allows diners to have their food customized to their needs and wants and cooked right in front of them. I requested that my food be cooked with no oil; it was accomplished with no questions asked. The restaurant is clean and attractive with friendly wait staff and management. If you are looking for an Asian buffet in Northern NJ, this is the best place to eat. read more

Tried this place to give my husband a taste of Mongolian Barbecue and he loved it. He also managed to check out the rest of the buffet, as well. We were both so pleased that we went back again while in the area today. My only complaint on both visits is that the food isn't kept hot enough, it might be a good idea to keep see-through covers over everything to keep the heat in, and warm plates would help, too. We'll try it again soon, but they really need to keep their Buffett tables at a healthy temperature. read more

Gave it two star's, just regular food. They do not have crab legs n their deserts are mediocre. Will not return n don't recommend

The very best Chinese buffet in the area. Many specialty dishes that will surprise and really good cherrystones on the half shell. However, WATCH OUT FOR THE ROACHES. read more

This place blew my mind. It was a mad house. So many people. So much Chinese buffet quality food. That being said, not too bad. The ice cream machine was pretty on point. And the mango was fresh. read more

We went on a holiday, so the prices were higher than a normal day. They charged us $16.99 per person which isn't too good of a price. We would've paid the same at a regular restaurant. The selection was good but some of the food tasted off. My brother complained that the fried chicken tasted a little like fish and the boneless spare ribs I had were a little rubbery. Everything else was good. The staff seemed quiet but nice. read more

Clean and food replenished regularly. Had a WTF moment when I saw the earliest reviewer mentioning the roaches, when I've never seen them here - and the place would have been shut down years ago if that were true. Some folks just want to trash whenever they get the opportunity. Anyway, the lunch menu is fine, and cheaper, although more seafood is brought out during dinner. We're going to go there later today for lunch. I'll review once more when I get back. Also, I'm a vegetarian, and can find plenty of options there. read more

Three hot bars with ~16 items each, a smaller hot bar with another ~6 items, a cold bar with ~16 items, and a smaller cold bar with dessert cakes, cookies, and ice cream. The selection is definitely "grand." The items were no better or worse than any other area buffet, but they did have more of them to chose from. The shellfish and sushi (probably weekend-only items) where surprisingly good quality for a buffet. read more

For an All You Can Eat Buffet, it has always been one of my favorite places to go. Service is very quick and drinks are refilled immediately. If you become friends with the staff, you get better treatment. The employees in Blue shirts speak very little English to none so always speak to the waiters or front desk. Weekends can be extremely crowded during rush hours. I've had numerous parties here before and they have always done a great job. I also recommend to come during busy hours where food is turned over more. Prices range differently on weekdays and weekends. The family and I love to go during rush hour on weekends. They also do carry out orders which seems very popular every time we go there. read more

Go for lunch on weekends, they have duck. Good variety. Price is right and the place is pretty clean. Servers are attentive, probably the best buffet in northern NJ for value and cleanliness. read more

Large variety of food. start with salads and a soup You have sushi as well. Egg rolls. Then all the known, chicken,beef,fish and sea food etc dishes. the food is not great but it is at defiantly OK and fresh every time I was there. Fruits and ice cream for desert. You cannot beat the price and I go there every week or every second week. read more

This is your standard, cookie cutter buffet join. Offers a lot of options, some are good, some not so good. The staff is friendly enough and clear the plates off your table in a timely manner, which is appreciated. I was very disappointed with the quality of the general tso chicken, a Chinese buffet signature dish, which was really lacking. The cheese wontons were very good though, I went back for seconds. Also, the self serve ice cream station is always a plus. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back to this place, its just OK. read more

This place is great but is supposedly "under construction". It was supposed to open in Feb and then March but as of the 24th it is still closed. I am starting to suspect it is closed for good. The website has not been updated and still lists it as open but the phone is disconnected. It would be nice if they updated their website. When it was open it was good, food seemed fresh, and they were always busy when I was there. They definitely needed an upgrade and I hope they worked on their cooling and heating system. However, I am not sure if it will open again. Too bad! read more

The only way I give a good buffet more than 3 stars is if there's something especially standout. For this place, it has a wide selection of dumplings and dim sum. They are very flavorful and seem very fresh. The rest of the items are good, but nothing standout in comparison to other buffet's I've been to. Regardless, there is quite a selection of items to satisfy pretty much anyone. Also, the apple pie with ice cream is excellent. I would go again.. read more

The only reason you go here is to pig out. It is absolutely disgusting and dirty, but that is part of the charm, I suppose.

I enjoyed the food. The frog legs tasted very good. I think the scallops, salt and pepper shrimp, mushrooms with steak, and sushi were my favorite. The dessert was typical fresh fruits and ice cream. The staff were very attentive, quick to clear plates, and refill drinks, nothing really bad to say about the place. The price for my wife and I was around 38.00 after tax not bad at all. read more

This place is pretty much a standard Chinese Buffet with large crowds, mediocre food, and a lot of grub. It is an all you can eat place and there is certainly no shortage of organic matter to shove down your gullet. My biggest complaint with this place is not the quality or quantity, but the price. There are so many other restaurants in the area that could provide a much better experience for $20. It's worth checking out ONCE. But I'd stick to your tried and true takeout place if you want subpar-average Chinese food. read more

Was there on Mother's Day..The place was packed wall to wall..The waitresses were wonderful and the food was delicious..How they are so consistently good even on a holiday always delights me..Very family friendly..I highly recommend this restaurant to all.. read more

Bleh. I think this place is below average. Go at lunch time for the same food and a much better deal. Nothing is spectacular here, it's okay if you want to stuff your face but you'll be hungry shortly after because it's Chinese food anyway. read more

Very clean, quick service, fresh food. The buffet was kept full. The food was hot. Everything tasted good. The waiter refilled my drink before I asked - this is a big deal for me read more

Yikes! This place is so bad compared to the old place, there's no selection of anything. We were a big party and there was no seafood of any kind. The service was also terrible and disappointing especially for the price. I wouldn't go there again. read more

Ugh... Stomach ache just thinking about this place. There are plenty of other Chinese Buffets out there that are better. Not only is it a Pain in the Ass to get to (Anything on Route 17) but it's the pain in the ass when the food is on the way out! The Sushi / Seafood did not taste fresh, even a bit fishy! Options weren't amazing and the food was pretty salty. I would pass if you were considering coming here.... I suppose the only thing good about this place is it was cheap. read more

One of my favorite places on this hemisphere. If I could strip down to a speedo, I would triple backflip into a pool of their wonton soup because it is absolutely heavenly. Their pricing is so affordable as well ($7.99 for lunch!!!!). $14.99 for dinner. But they do have a nice assortment of food, but obviously the best part is when the crab legs come out to play. You're gonna have to lower your shoulder and throw some elbows to get a piece of that action but it's well worth it. I could live the rest of my life off their crab legs and wonton soup. This place flys real under the radar and is definitely worth the trip every once in a while. read more

I am not usually a fan of buffets but this one is pretty good - the food is fresh and there is a big assortment of food - service could be friendlier read more

My mother and I love visiting different buffet around the area and we decided one Saturday morning to visit this one. Complete mistake!! There food was less than ordinary. I had to go around the food tables three times each time before I found something I might eat. After a while, the food just tasted inedible. Will not be coming back. read more

This is my favorite buffet. Huge selection and great fish selections. Newly decorated dining room. I don't live in the area, but when I'm on rt 17, I eat here. A must try. Leave a comment. read more

Looking to try something new, decided to try it.. 1st impression was the place smells like a litter box. Sat down and hit the feed line. Most of the food was below avg. read more

Came here based on a friend recommendation but we are greatly disappointed with the food quality and taste. There was no crab, lobster, oysters unlike most other buffet place. Staff was attentive and place is reasonably clean, that's the only good thing about this place. not worth coming, I'd recommend dynasty buffet in saddle brook, though it's more expensive there's always oysters, king crab on the menu. read more
