Staff mopping the floors while we were still dining.

This is a one and done place for me. To be fair, we came within a hour of closing, but I still think that customer service and quality should not be compromised no matter the time. Expect to pay for the buffet up front (I imagine due to proximity of theme parks they may deal with a fair amount of dine and dash customers). The dining area is large and can accommodate large crowds; and unlike other buffets the food is central to the entire dining area. As for the buffet, most of the items were either running out, completely gone, incredibly tough, lukewarm or over salted! I found the chicken on a stick to be the most palatable item. Before closing time, staff started cleaning the floor around our table with a very concentrated bleach solution - mind you there were plenty of areas quite a distance away that could have been cleaned instead (we were clearly wrapping up our meal and the added pressure was very unkind).

I do travel all over the country for business, and when I have to stop for food, I do prefer buffets. Don't have to wait, just eat and hit the road again. Absolutely love this place!!! Pay before you eat, and here you can choose your place to sit. Food is good and fresh!!! Will be back again!!! Thank You!!!

I had eaten at City Buffet a few times pre-COVID since it's near a church I usually attend when in the Tampa Bay Area. Not too long ago, I ate here for the first time in three years. As usual, the food was good. The Asian background music was enjoyable (although it sounded like the same song played over and over). Another addition I liked was the animated mural on the wall near the cashier. Speaking of whom, the cashier needs to work on her listening skills or improve her understanding of English. She disregarded questions I asked regarding my choice of drink and seating preference. One thing that repelled me from eating there a few days before was their electronic sign outside stated lunch was $10.50 plus a "service fee." They've since changed it to just say "$13."

Found roach on my plate This is unacceptable. This is so unprofessional. And honestly I would never eat here ever again.
