There were sit down restaurants, that had much higher stars and better reviews. But we prefer buffets, so we can have a little of everything. Something we very much missed during Covid. So even it had lower stars, we decided to give it a go. We were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was very big, decorated nicely, and clean. The staff were super friendly. Some people came in and the staff knew their names. We felt like we were apart of the neighborhood. The food was basic Chinese food. I love Chinese chicken wings and I think Buffets are the most economical way of having them. Their chicken wings were delicious. I also loved the Honey chicken, had a couple pieces of sushi, the you peel shrimp was delish! There were some items that I didn't like. Their egg rolls, nope not for me. The mussels were ok. I did notice that they had chicken nuggets, jello, pudding, Ice cream, etc...non- Chinese items, probably for the kids.I thought that was very thoughtful. Price was very reasonable! 2 people 30.00. + we tipped 6.00. I enjoyed it very much. I did find it odd that not all food was labeled. But if not looked tasty, I tried it. lol but seriously, it would be nice to have all the labels updated properly. I can see why there are regulars. Once you figure out what you like, you can just slide in and load up. Not perfect, but nice experience. If I had to go back to Elmira, I would eat there again. Give it a go. I think it deserves higher stars. We all know when we eat buffets, foods are going to be hit or miss. I just focused I what I did like. I'd also like to add, that I loved that they had fresh fruit and veggie dishes.

The food we tried was fresh, hot, and tasty, with plenty of choices. We stuck with the prepared buffet items and didn't try the hibachi, but all of the meats, vegetables, and other selections available for it looked fresh and well stocked. The restaurant itself was also clean, tidy, and well kept. Our waitress was excellent, she kept our drinks filled and cleared empty plates quickly without ever making us feel rushed.

There's also plenty of seating, making it a convenient option for both smaller parties and larger groups. The atmosphere itself isn't anything particularly special. It has the typical look and feel of an average buffet. The food isn't especially memorable either, but I will say that the selection is better than some of the other buffet options in the area. The pricing is also about what I'd expect for a buffet: fairly average. Unfortunately, the biggest issue for me was that my family and I all felt sick after eating here. I can't say for certain that it was caused by the food, but it's something worth mentioning and something I personally would keep in mind when deciding whether to return. Overall, Royal House has a decent selection, plenty of seating, and an average price, but the food itself isn't anything exceptional.

We order the same exact thing each time: Boneless wings for me and a Beef Taco Salad for my wife. My wings were great as always today. My wife's Beef Taco Salad, on the other hand, appeared to have a burned burger patty (barely chopped up) sitting on top of her salad. The beef was not edible, but my wife tried picking out the bad parts...the problem is that there were no good parts. So, my wife enjoyed our appetizer. When our waitress asked how everything was, my wife showed her the burned, chopped burger patty, and said "This is awful. I just wanted your kitchen to know because I get this all the time and it's never like this." The waitresses apologized. She was so sweet. We didn't want the salad take off the bill, even though it was not edible. The wings were great, the beer was cold, and the service was amazing. This is where things took a turn for the worse. One of the owners, not Sara, approached out table. He was spotted with bits of grease and food on his clothes, so I assumed he was working in the kitchen. There was no greeting, no smile, no kindness. He leans in onto the side of our table with his hands and says, "There's a problem with the beef?" My wife replied that the beef as clearly a burned burger patty, but before she could finish, he cut her off and said, "The beef is always hamburger, I'll take 50% off" and then abruptly walked away. He was mean, unprofessional, dismissive, and accusatory. We never asked our waitress for the owner and we certainly never asked for a discount for the salad that my wife didn't touch. True to his word, the angry, dismissive owner took 50% off my wife's inedible Beef Taco Salad. Happy with our service, we tipped our amazing waitress 50% of the bill. We will be giving Champions a bit of a break. One of the staff was overheard explaining to another unhappy customer that "We have new staff in the kitchen." This makes sense, and is all the more reason for the owner to treat my wife's inedible Beef Taco Salad with a bit more professionalism. His attitude was almost accusatory, as if we had done something wrong by answering his question about "the beef." We never asked to speak to the owner anyhow and were happy to eat our appetizer and wings. We understand that staffing restaurant is hard beyond measure and that we all have a bad night now and then. Champions is normally awesome and the owner, Sara, never would have behaved the way the gentleman who approached us tonight behaved. It is our hope that Sara can minimize that guy's presence because he clearly lacks the interpersonal skills necessary to navigate the human side of the restaurant business. We won't be back for a while.
