Been seeing and hearing about this place for a long time and finally was in the area and gave it a try. It was a Friday night and there was basically no one there. The ladies at the front were very kind and friendly. We paid before being seated. It was $35 for my husband and I. We usually love buffets but it was just not very appealing. I walked around the buffet options twice before I even grabbed for anything to put on my plate. The food items I did eat were okay. Nothing really stood out as delicious or noteworthy. I had a nice time with my husband and our friends were there as well but the food was just disappointing. We will not be returning.

Actual photo of food.

I haven't reviewed a restaurant in a while. I feel this should be told, the food was not clearly labeled. My co-worker took some food that was labeled garlic mashed potatoes. In fact it was crab meat with cheese. She is allergic to sea food. This was not clearly labeled. Which could cost her, her life. She made it known to staff they, clearly just said oh it wasn't made clear! No apology nothing just kept as nothing never happened. The staff needs to be trained ASAP!!!

Service was kind and food was cheap for a buffet. That's where the good stops though... Food was not good and mostly was not fresh at all. Some items were tasty but a vast majority was questionable to say the least. Would not come here again unfortunately. They also charge you in advance including tip, though how are we to tip prior to receiving service? The ambiance wasn't the best but I could have gotten past that had it been good food but this is not the case for Palacio Buffet.

One star is too much!!! This place is so expensive, I have a 7 yr old daughter who didn't even eat much and was charged adult price for her. Ridiculous. Not only was it expensive, the food was bad it looked old and dry as if it had been out all day. I spent $50 to not even eat one whole plate. HORRIBLE experience. BUT IT GETS WORSE... there was a fly in the jello see pic and video for reference. This place is disgusting do not go eat here unless you like nasty food. This place should be CLOSED PERMANENTLY. I felt nauseous leaving this dump.

Typical buffet. A lot of variety. The other people in my party seemed to enjoy the food. Personally don't think I'll be back.

Somehow I've overlooked this place in the past few years since it's been open. Even on this…read moreoccasion my family intended to go a bit farther down Colonial to a similar restaurant, but our eyes landed upon K-BBQ while driving so we altered our plan. Ended up being a good decision. A definite standout was our server CD. We really enjoyed chatting with him. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and genuinely cared for. We went with the $29.99 option for everyone in our group. The Bulgogi Pork was our favorite meat. Such a tasty marinade! You will definitely leave stuffed. Large space inside. The Banchan bar could use some better labels, but that didn't stop me from loading up my plate. Enjoyed the Japchae and appreciated the nearby scissors which came in handy. The main challenge for this place is it's nearby competitors, Izziban and Korea House. Wish K-BBQ had a more unique name, but regardless they can hold their own. My experience was pleasing from beginning to end.

AYCE has 2 price options which cover variety of meat and appetizers. If you like LA galbi, this is the place for you. There is unlimited banchan including gimbap from the bar. A lot of sauce options for your grilled meat. Meat was fresh and marinated with good flavor. Staff was attentive and helpful as we have a kid and a baby in our group. This is the best place to get AYCE KBBQ with good price.

Ambience was quiet and relaxed, food was amazing, and stuff was friendly. The gaucho's were nice and generous when I asked to take a picture of their meat. We all had a laugh. My eyes were bigger than my stomach and I had to start saying no when they came by with meats. You fill up quickly for sure. Best was the sirloin and flank steak. Flavor was amazing. I would skip the ribs and parmesean pork. Super dry and I had a hard time getting them down even with water. Price was good and comparable for what you get and if you bring a tourist coupon, you save a few more bucks. Overall we enjoyed our meal and will be full for most of the day. I suggest going midday and not late at night so food can digest properly. Very filling.

The meat selections were pretty good, and there was a nice variety to choose from. Unfortunately, the salad bar and side dishes were a bit disappointing. They lacked flavor and seasoning, and the mashed potatoes in particular tasted like a combination of instant and homemade mashed potatoes. Overall, the service was definitely the highlight, but the sides and salad bar could use some improvement.

One couple comes often and recommended this place. I'm not necessarily an all-you-can-eat fan, but my partner wanted to come so.... here we are. At $70, you'd better get some lobster! But they have a lot to offer! I'm more of a snow crab fan so I had plenty crab legs. The fried shrimp was my favorite. If you were searching for it by sight, you wouldn't have found it. It wasn't in the shape of a shrimp, but it was very tasty. I love fried shrimp. You can pass on the calamari though. That too is a favorite, but it was lacking the crunch and was cold. Oh, one of my friends was going to town on the crawfish!! Lol. So, I guess it was good! There were so many options, I can't remember them all. But they did have a lot to offer. I was saving room for dessert. Their pecan pie was delicious. They come in bites, which is smart, so you can sample many. The cheesecakes was good, but the key lime was divine. It was a good experience. Our group was 15 and we tried not to bother them too much. They were attentive and even broke up our checks. Check it out!

We love to have a lobster feast once in a while, but it can be pricy! So when we are in Orlando and…read moreoverwhelmed with Disney pricing, we figure for the same price we can get a great AUCE lobster buffet in a "real world" restaurant! We've been here before and while it's not entirely inexpensive, it is priced well for what it is. Though it IS a buffet, the lobster itself is served to you one at a time. Good call! The rest of the food offerings are of really good variety and you should find plenty to enjoy here, including cute tasty desserts. Standouts are seafood casserole, cornbread, seafood/shellfish of all types and many salads, sushi rolls, a variety of fish preparations, etc. The drink specials are fun, but will still pad the bill, so we abstained. The staff were all personable and hardworking, with the bar-staff pulling double duty on the floor and still cheerful about it. One HUGE table left a paltry cheap tip for the poor guy, so we gave extra. Don't b a D*CK, people! Restrooms are fine and the wait was minimal. Parking is great on site, at no charge. Yay! Check it out when visiting exciting Orlando for a fun satisfying meal after a crazy day in the parks! Thanks for following me, stay cool in hawt summer yelping in 2026! ~Tami in Miami
