" This was my first experience at a buffet, and I must say, it was quite enjoyable. I liked trying different cuisines from sushi to traditional Chinese meals. The only drawback was that some dishes were not very hot; I recommend going during busier times to experience the food at its best. Overall, I was happy with the service and atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" For anyone who enjoys buffets, Empire Buffet does a great job. The selection is huge, especially the seafood and sushi. I tend to focus on the hibachi; it always tastes good. The staff is friendly and ensures that we are taken care of. I definitely recommend it for families looking for a fun and budget-friendly meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Empire Buffet is your standard Chinese buffet, but I enjoyed the variety. The seafood section was particularly good, and I was impressed by the freshness of the salads. However, some dishes, like the general Tso's chicken, were a bit lacking in flavor. It's an enjoyable place to satisfy a quick craving without spending too much. " (*Curated Review*)

" Empire Buffet is one of those places that can really surprise you. While walking in, you might be intimidated by the size and bustle of it all, but I found the selection to be varied and satisfying. The sushi and seafood particularly stood out as being fresh. The staff was also very friendly! I would recommend it for large gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Empire Buffet is a great choice for those who love variety in their meals! I’ve been multiple times, and each occasion has revealed something new to try. The sushi is one of my favorites, but I enjoy the hibachi as well. The service staff is quick and attentive. Would recommend to anyone looking for a casual dining experience with friends or family.

" I often visit this place for quick lunches, and while the food is hit and miss, it generally satisfies my cravings. I find the portions to be generous, particularly with the fried rice. However, some items need a little more seasoning and care. Overall, solid but not extraordinary. " (*Curated Review*)

" Empire Buffet has a diverse array of food choices. The sushi was surprisingly good, but some other dishes were not quite to my liking. The service was adequate, and the atmosphere was typical of a busy buffet. It can feel chaotic, especially during peak times. If they could improve the flavor of the main dishes, it would greatly enhance the experience. " (*Curated Review*)
