Royal Buffet in Willimantic

Always a good dining experience. Many choices including many American favorites. Never a wait and prompt service at the table. Don't forget to leave room for ice cream.

Price and food options are good. If you don't mind lots of hands around the food you are playing this is a good option. Hot food and better choices than some buffets. The hibachi is a safer way to go for better taste.

I celebrated my PhD yesterday in this excellent restaurant. happy to tell that we enjoyed a incredible evening and the venue was no doubt one of the reasons for the outstanding meeting. The team cooperated in a graceful style, the cooking was appetizing and my friends were extremely cheerful. We shall absolutely come back again for more events. Thank you very much.

Good hibachi made while you wait. Most food good if it is busy. If you come late your taking a chance the food is not fresh. Very good variety. They have sushi,pizza, cakes and ice cream.

Most of the food was cold but this was the day right after christmas. As you can see my momma loves her clams. You get whatever you want and as much as you want without anyone saying anything. Instead of giving us receipts they gave us post its. Again this was the day after christmas. I would definitely go back though. It was a great place to get out of the house and hang out with family and friends.

Best Chinese for the area... Needs crab legs to make it perfect

The food is delicious!!! The atmosphere is very peaceful!!! They even have a make your own Ice Cream station and a frozen yogurt one to. However there is no Wi-Fi here. Would give 5 stars if they had it! Lastly the prices are very cheap $7.55 a person for lunch. And for dinner it's $10.45 a person.

I visited recently for the first time in many years. A great buffet and a well-run restaurant. I recommend it. They have made many upgrades to the place over the years and are very attentive.

I'm always a bit skeptical of buffet restaurants. I went to the Royal Buffet tonight with my sons, for the first time in about 8 years. It was busy, but they put us right into a table. The food was good. I saw the servers switching out the food several times and adding more hot food. Which is good, so the food wasn't sitting. They have quite the selection of not only traditional Chinese food, but American comfort food such as french fries and chicken wings. They also have desserts like cookies and ice cream. My five year old was happy with the jello and fruit. I would recommend it and I will go back.

Good Chinese restaurant. Lots of selections and an area where you can have items made to order. Sushi bar. Lots of deserts. Really good cold crab salad. If you go be sure to keep looking you'll find stuff you missed that is so good. The buffalo wings are good too. Who would think on Chinese buffet. So go and keep looking. Pizza too. Real ice cream with approximately 8 flavors. Very busy place everytime we have gone. Priced very reasonably.

Cheap american-chinese buffet resturant. The food is not amazing, but you’ll get the most bang for your buck here.

Very good food but I didn't see any yellow rice all the time I was there

The waitress didn't serve us. We were group of 5 people with kids. We had used plates on the table but nobody care to clean it. I moved the dirty plates to the station so my kids can keep eating. When I walked by the waitress with my hand full, they didn't even look at me. This place deserve zero star.

Good if you want to have a decent meal and lots of it

Great wait staff!!!! I went tonight with the family ( 3 kids 12, 2, & 7 mos) and our two year old was not having any of it and instead of the wait staff getting annoyed or rude they were amazing!!! The girl asked to pick her up, carried her around and then gave her a balloon! As well as every other kid tonight! That alone will have us coming back. The food was very good too!

Good food, and a great value. Where else can a couple bring a young child and have nice meal for less than you could go to McDonald's for? This is a very good choice and there is something for everyone.

The place is noisy and chaotic and the food is just okay. The three times I was there I nearly tripped over unattended children. Perhaps it's customer who can't control their germy snot monsters and sex trophies that made my experience here unpleasant.

Went to restaurant, not my first time, but is always delicious, well priced food. But, I got this balloon that says "ROAL DUFFET".

Short-order chef is there to make meals for you as well as the buffet always good food

Lots of choices. My kids love going there. My wife and I are on a keto diet and this place works for us. The only thing would be nice is some sugar free deserts. It's clean and lots of seating.

I love this buffet! They got so much food. I just moved away from that area and I miss that place alot. It was so nice when i lived close to it for the 6 or 7 months that I did, even before I lived in that area, I use to drive about a half hour away just to go there. I've always like this buffet the best! Their Hibachi is absolutely amazing as well!!

All you can eat. Wish I could have it all. My eyes are bigger than my stomach. Guess ill just have to come back again. Thank you guys for the great food 😁

I was really excited to go here but when I got my plate of food I found a small hair. I’m pretty disappointed.

Consistantly excellent food. Always neat & clean. Nice staff

The best food money can buy . great place with home feeling . great people the own the Royal Buffet. ITS TRULY FOR A ROYAL TIME .

Best buffet in Willimantic and the surrounding areas. Food is fresh and reasonably priced. I love going there when I'm in the area.

My wife and I both find food we like so it's one of our go to places

Attentive staff an great lunch buffet!

We absolutely love Royal Buffet. The food is good, and the assortment is very good. But ... What we like best, is the price. I don't know how they can provide the quality and assortment of food for such an extremly low price. They have cooked to order hibachi and sushi is freshly made. This is a very popular restaurant with the locals, it is always full of eager customers.

Within 10 minutes of just leaving, I am already having symptoms of the food being bad. Staff are rude. Just dont bother.

Had a very nice lunch here, today. It wasn't crowded and the food was warm (unlike whatsome other reviews stated). Satisfied.

Pretty good food, very clean place. visually attractive. Lots of options, has quite a few American options. Desert was delicious. The only complaint is the staff customer service. Felt very rushed, The drink ladies ran away before I could thank them. In the middle of the meal they dropped the bill on the table. :/

Food is good. The only issue is that the staff seem to be watching every time we got up to get more food. They were interrupting us too much.

DELICIOUS! They have a very wide selection of food! I was blown away. The food is decent for being a all you can eat. I usually stay away from Chinese buffets but I will be going back to this one! It's not super expensive to eat in or take out either! Worth the drive for me!

Plenty to choose from, inexpensive! Plus good music.

The owners son is good at basketball. 10/10 would come again.

The place is overall good, but the only bad thing was I found a bug in my food. I ordered hibachi and I’m lucky I saw it because it almost perfectly blended in with the cooked rice.

Great quality food for a great price

The only thing more diverse than the food available is the diversity of characters eating here. Buffets are 2nd to Walmart for people watching.

This place is amazing! Great food and for the price of McDonald's. I love it!

Food is good and service is great.

As someone who has been to many Chinese Buffets, this one is one of my all time favorites💕🔥

The best place to eat in Willinantic ct recomended 100%

Great buffet . lunch price is unbeatable and there is a make your own Hibachi plate area where they fry up whatever you want . also lots of ice cream flavors and toppings

Food is okay not the best and one of the ladys was rude

Always a good meal and good staff

Best buffet I've ever been to. Incredible selection. Hibachi, sushi, ice cream, and all the items you'd expect and more from an Asian buffet. And they have mountain dew.

Yummy! Traveled half an hr. & it was worth it! Lots to select from including desserts!

Wonderful selection of food and the price is unbeatable. Every Once In A great while the food is cold though and I miss the crab legs.
