Empire Buffet offers a variety of dishes at a reasonable price, with lunch priced at $11.99 and dinner at $16.99. The food is fresh and hot, with popular options including chicken with broccoli, mushrooms with chicken, fried rice, creamy shrimp, and a selection of seafood dishes. The restaurant has a sushi bar and hibachi grill, which are additional attractions. While some reviewers mention the need for better labeling of dishes, others appreciate the tasty food kept at the proper temperature. The restaurant is clean and spacious, making it easy to park. However, some customers note that the booths and carpeting could use an update, and there is a slight musty or stale smell in the dining area. Service has been described as average, with some instances of being slow. One reviewer mentioned that seafood options, including the seafood boil, sometimes appear old and cold, and the dessert selection is not very impressive. Despite these issues, the traditional Chinese buffet is known for its great calamari, fish, and sushi. Overall, Empire Buffet remains a decent choice for those seeking a wide variety of food at an affordable price, especially for casual dining, though there is room for improvement in atmosphere and food freshness.
