The food is decent, but as most buffets, you must be careful about the food you consume or else you could end up with a few bad nights. The service is kind of lacking. My husband ordered a coke and wanted a refill at one point, but the waitress came back with a diet coke and kind of sounded angry when he said he asked for a regular coke. He drank the diet because he didn't feel like arguing.
The waitress gave us the check 50 minutes into our dining experience even though there was a 2 hour limit posted by the door. She came back to check every 3-4 minutes to see if he'd put his card down yet and was very loud about wanting us to pay now. It felt like we were being rushed out, which kind of soured my experience. We left within an hour and 15 minutes, but I would have liked to spend a little more time there had I not felt rushed.
I'm not sure if we'll be back, but it's not bad if you're looking for a mediocre buffet and don't care much about the service.

I went with my 5 year old. My son had a plate of macaroni and cheese and the woman was already at our table trying to give us the check. Last I checked, a buffet is more than just a plate of macaroni and cheese.

Clean and well stocked. This place is great, would definitely recommend and will come again next time I am close to Albany. The other Buffetts close to here are closed, so this one saved the day!

I came here because the dragon buffet was closed today. Food was alright. Servers are difficult to talk with, which was not a big deal they are trying. And much respect to them as I only speak one language.
My low rating comes because 4 ppl for dinner and bill is $95, and one of us paid with debit. I was going into my purse to put a tip on the table in cash. The server came over, got the signed copy of the debit, and asked if I was going to put tip in.
I have a few issues with that.
