Don't judge a place by the way it looks.. I was surprised. Inside is big and the staff is a little slow.. So I had to take a star off for that.. As for the food.. Poor sushi guy was having a hard time to keep up with the demand but he did his best. Chinese food not oily like other buffets. And there was a good selection of dishes.. The hibachi was fresh and looked good. The night we were there there was a line to. Get a table.. read more

The place is clean and well kept. However, yes there is one, the food doesn't have any flavor. The thing about Chinese buffets is that they typically have strong flavors. Meaning, the sesame chicken tastes like sesame chicken and the beef tastes like chicken. Lol. All flavors were bland. Not much of a selection but your typical orange and sesame chicken, some beef. I gave it three stars cause it's reasonable and it's clean. But be your own judge!! read more

Flaming Buffet - BE AWARE!!! The sign is made to trick you. The word is plural for KIDS. but the line below shows a 1Kid?? No Shame. - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This is the worst service I have ever had at a restaurant. My drink stayed empty the entire time that I was there. The server was blatantly rude. Whenever she gave me the bill I had to ask for a refill. And when she did refill it she acted like it was a big deal. And when she came back and saw what I had left her she looked at me dead in the eyes and said "Really that's it, I just refilled your drink." The service was terrible and I tipped accordingly. I have never experienced such a rude waitress in my life. read more

the food made me and my friends sick. this place shouldn't be in business, making people sick for profit. some of the food had a smell to it. read more

This evening my girl and I went to dine in here. The food tasted like it's been sitting out there for hours with fresh hot food being poured over it. As we were trying to enjoy our meals, our server came up and dropped the bill. Which is fine but the other servers kept hovering over us and asking if we're ready to pay while we still had food in our mouths. They constantly chatted in their language and kept looking over at us as if they were speaking about us. It felt like we were being singled out for being a young couple. Almost like they assumed we would dine and dash. My girl reassured them that we will pay AFTER we finished eating. They continued to rush us by even asking for our card before walking over to the desk. The server had the audacity to be upset at the fact that we didn't tip! Never coming back here, horrible staff!! read more

My goodness, do yourself a favor and avoid this place. The food was SO old! Went for dinner but legit had to have been from the lunch crowd - it truly tasted stale. My wife had a tough time even finding something that was remotely edible. We got our drinks and we were never seen again. Just sat there with empty drinks the entire time with horrid food. We used to like this place slot but it's just gone downhill as these places tend to do after a while. Avoid Avoid Avoid read more

I found this Chinese buffet out from yelp. It's been hard for me to find good authentic Chinese food here in dallas. Iv goon to quit a full places and this is by far the best place iv gone to. I went on a Sunday afternoon during lunch time because I just New it would be the freshest food out. And boy I wasn't wrong at all you can see all the workers hustling around the buffet. Fresh food coming in and food that was stirring out to long out. The price was not bad at all I'll tell you that. The rice was sooo good it was perfect. The habashi was really good not a lot of places can actually get it done right. The sushi I normally don't get it at buffet but I put my judgement aside and it was delicious. The server was hustling in and out getting everyone situated and getting al the dirty plates out the way in a a timely manner. In most restaurant you have a server in one section only responsible for that section not here all server are everywhere. This was my first time coming here and I will definitely be going back for more. If you love sea food this is the place as well. They also have crab legs there you must go and try it. Kids eat free on Tuesday. read more

This place was horrible!! for one they try to charge me a dinner price at noon and they also try to charge me for water.. the orange chicken and sesame chicken were pretty much slime. It was disgusting, I barely ate a piece.. the broccoli and beef was very cold and tasted like something from the frozen food section , moving on the fried dumplings and hot wings were strangely pretty decent. The sushi and shrimp look questionable and I didn't have enough courage to attempt that. Maybe in a free healthcare world I would.. the service was probably the only thing that would make me two Star this but that's still couldn't save the terrible food and terrible pricing on this. In conclusion I have deleted and blocked the person that recommended flaming Buffet to me. They have truly shown their true colors today by recommending this hell.. Ty and end all hope by entering.. read more

The food in the buffet looks and tastes like it's been left for death in a warming pan. It was not fresh and had no taste. I'm disappointed by the lack of hospitality and when I addressed the manager about the quality/safety, he blamed it on not having enough product. Judging by the lack of uneaten food (probably left over from lunch) there was only excuse after excuse with a full priced bill. I didn't even eat 1/3 of a single plate. Overall poor and disappointing of an establishment, management and customer service. read more

They have some good food, but the customer service wasn't so great. The way Our waiter was talking to us felt racist, she kept trying to talk to us in Spanish when we were clearly speaking English the whole time. When it came to the check she was practically forcing us for a tip, we kept trying to decline but she wouldn't take it, when she finally walked away she kept shaking her head and mumbled something under her breath . We still wanted dessert after that but she was practically rushing us out, she even threw our drinks away..the food was good but the way she was being made us feel uncomfortable. Not to mention the staff kept staring at us the whole time... 10/10 will never come back. read more

Food was good, very clean venue...i wish they had more variety of the traditional Asian cuisine. But! For the amount that was there it was good and tasty...i like the place. Covid protocal is read more

I actually really like this place and have been twice over the past month during lunch. Both times I went around noon and in the middle of the week. Their chicken wings are BOMB...crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Their stir fry rice noodle is delish. The shrimp is good too and their broccoli beef. Soups are tasty and salmon is cooked well. The Mongolian bbq is really good and they always do a good job cooking my food. Don't forget to finish off with some soft serve ice cream. Fruit is always fresh too. Oh yeah...all that for like $9 during lunch!! Where else can I get a fresh lunch for that price with all those options? read more

The majority of the food is cold and not appetizing. We came here for the first time since the pandemic occurred and were nothing but disappointed. Also, one of our family members found a long sharp wire in their food. If you do come here be aware that you may find something in your food that could be a hazard. read more

I want to start saying that for the price you pay this place is great! A great variety of food and ice cream machine is definitely good enough. Is obviously not a fancy place but if you want to eat asian food until you can't breathe this is your place. You basically get what you pay for, is a decent place I would say give it a try! read more

Flaming Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Mediocre but with a large variety of food. The service was good but the food is low quality. Standard run of the mill Chinese buffet.

"We'll be closing in 10minutes because the time changed and everyone wants to go home" that was the reason my husband was given while I breastfed my daughter. That said I only ate a plate and I didn't get to eat hibachi because they close that at 9. We got there at 8:55 and we expected an hour- we only got 20 minutes. Paid 25 for DEMEANING service and having to go home and cook something because I didn't eat that much. A HUGE screw you to management- you got a full hour from the start. Inexcusable behavior. read more

Went on a Friday night at around 7pm. I had very low expectations because of the price but you a whole lot more than what you pay for! The crab was surprising delicious and there were plenty of authentic Chinese cuisine. I will definitely be going back!! read more

I've never been here before and I was blown away the selection of the food everything was fantastic and the price was amazing!!!!!

Me and my brother came here around 8:45ish (they close at 10:00). Most of the food was dry and seemed like it had been sitting under the heat lamps for a while. Flavor in the food was like a coin toss, half the food had flavor the other half didnt. Price wasn't too bad considering, thankfully the waitress made sure our drinks were full. The sweet tea was pretty good though. read more

It's okay, there was improvements in the quality of food. Waiters, Tina, was asking for a tip... when they only give you water. Better give me a better service for your daily bread. The price went up too. read more

For the money, you just can't beat this place for the sheer selection and quantity of food! Does it "stand out" as far as food quality is concerned? No, not really, but this is again where selection and quantity make up for it. The staff is always attentive to drink refills and making sure your table is clear by the time you return with your next plate, so no complaints there for sure. Not a lot of Chinese restaurants it seems in our area here, so this is a welcomed option for those nearby. read more

I enjoyed this fresh new Oriental Buffet for dinner the first day it opened. Delicious main courses all around. Their desserts, not so much, but I came here for a delicious dinner & not for dessert. Also I loved the hibachi grill which was fresh & cooked to perfection. From soups to salad everything was yummy! My favorites were the fried shrimp & regular spicy shrimp (not fried). Frog legs (tastes like chicken ) Fried rice, string beans, sushi bar & Sesame Chicken. I was surprised that they also served pizza, crawfish & steamed clams. I will come back. Friendly staff too. read more

As buffets go, they are a dime a dozen in most cities. However, what sets Flaming Buffet apart from the rest is the freshness and variety of the food. It's a spacious location (used to be a GattiTown) so there is plenty of seating available. They group the food categories together which is great for those of us who may be at risk for cross contamination from food allergies (me). They also have a Mongolian grill so you can get your Genghis Grill fix in one stop. I recommend this spot and bring your family. You won't be disappointed. read more

When it comes to Chinese buffet, you really can't be too picky. I usually blame one of my kids when we go buffet as the kids typically prefers a little of everything. For this, it was Chinese New Year this past weekend. Really should have pick a better place, but decided on buffet. But wanted to try somewhere we have not been, so this is it. Got there on a Saturday night, The place was about 80% full, which is good as the turnover on food will be more often and fresher. We were seated quickly and went off on our adventure. Usually, I like to start on the Mongolian as you can pick and choose the food, so it's little fresher. You have to tell the cook not too much soy sauce, which is what they typically add. On round 2, I just got a little bit of this and that. I would offer more detail description, but none of the food really stands out. Most are all the basic that you would find at the typical Chinese buffet. Many of the sauces are similar, just with different meat or veggie. They didn't have anything unique that would set them apart from others. I think most people know that if you find a Chinese restaurant pack with Chinese, its usually a good indication that it's half decent. Well, this place was pack, but we were the only Asian, thus the reason for the 2 stars. The food is just too typical of a buffet place, and the service was just lacking. Again, as I said in the beginning, my expectation is usually pretty low for these type of restaurant. Was really hoping that they would proof me wrong, but not here. This is a solid 2 star. read more

This Chinese buffet left me very unsatisfied. Me and my boyfriend stopped by there because we were craving Alaskan crab legs. The atmosphere could be a big miss. They did not have any music in background!!. Some people might like it quiet but it was way too quiet for us!! It was really a little stressful when we were there, plus loud kids running around with ignorant parents. Well, it wasn't a big deal. Their food was just meh and NO FLAVOR!!! We didn't have a high expectation at all, but come on I have had it way better. Alaskan crab legs were too plain, and COLD! If you come here for sushi, don't! Sushi line was disappointing. Restrooms are awful I'm telling you. I was so scared if I could have gotten any food poisoning. Staffs were nice. Price was reasonable $11.99 on Fridays with Alaskan crab legs, but sorry I will not ever ever be back again. read more

This is a huge buffet! They have a Mongolian grill, sushi, and all your classic Chinese favorites. Great price for good food.

This is a typical Dallas Chinese buffet, in that there's a good mix of other cuisines mixed in. Slice of pepperoni pizza? They got it. After all, the place was a pizza joint in its previous incarnation. The food is good, and they keep it well stocked. I have to take away a star for their hibachi grill. It's poorly designed. I've seen guys work a round, island hibachi with the same amount of surface area, and they can handle 6 orders at once. This can barely handle 2, partially because it's also doing double-duty, grilling boneless chicken breasts, and because it's a rather shallow rectangle, with the chef only have access to one side. And for some reason, when I take my food back to my table, after about 5 minutes it looks like I'm eating stew. All the liquid from the meat (I guess) has drained onto the plate. I've never seen anything like that elsewhere, but it happens every time here. It's so off-putting that I just skip the hibachi now. That's okay, since they have such a good selections of other items. Another plus - they carry their weekday prices over to Saturday as well. A lot of buffets don't. However, if you pay for the lunch, apparently you only get to eat the "lunch" food. I was having a late lunch there one day, and as I was leaving, I noticed they had started putting out the dinner-only items, and they had little "dinner only" signs in front of those food items. I don't know what happens if a lunch patron takes some of the dinner food. Do you get sent to buffet jail? read more

I had passed by this place several times on my way home from work, and never thought of going in. Boy was I wrong! I went for lunch today and it was great! It is extremely clean and the staff are very nice. The buffet is humongous with one lane for desert, one for cold food items, and then 3 more with mixed food and soup. They also have pretty darn good sushi and a really good hibachi grill section. It was pretty inexpensive too as it was only $10 for one person. All in all I know I gave this place 5 stars, but that is because I am rating it against other buffets that I have been to. This one has beat out the rest due to the assortment of items and the cleanliness of the location. read more

mala experiencia fui por primera ves y no buelbo a ir me forzaron a dejar mas propina de lo que ya les había dado por tarjeta

The variety of food was really appealing, not to mention the price. Lots of seafood, fish, sushi, chicken, pork, veggies, salads, etc. options to select from. Everything was fresh and the buffet was continuously being stocked. There's also a hibachi grill area where you can get made-to-order dishes. And leave room for dessert, including an ice cream sundae bar, because there's plenty to choose from. The wait staff at lunch was friendly and accommodating. read more

Flaming Buffet - One of the several self-serve buffets. - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This is crazy, but outside of Vegas, I'd never heard of a buffet that offered half-shell oysters...until this weekend. And I didn't get sick! (Made for a smoother drive home.) Flaming Buffet offers mostly Chinese food but also includes sushi, cooked-to-order noodle plates from the grill, and the standard assortment of buffet seafood and desserts. It's a large space and will seat families given enough time to prep tables. For the oysters and space alone, I'm bumping my rating from three to four stars (would have been 3.5, but oh well). There's some good meals to be had here! read more

It's a buffet. You need to have expectations that you're not eating at Ruth's Chris Steak House. These people who offer 1 star below are long on wish and short on wallet, obviously. As far as a buffet goes, the place is clean, the dishes are clean, the food is hot and the drinks get refilled. What else could you want? We have eaten here 4 times in the past month or so and haven't been disappointed yet. Some things are better than others, just strap on the feedbag and find what you like! The stuffed mushrooms are pretty damn good. read more

Flaming Buffet in dallas is not what I expected til I tried yhe sushi. I've never had good sushi at a buffet until I tried Flaming Buffet. The inside is very nice with ceyatal chandeliers. The waiter was extremely attentive and nice. I was also surprised they had oyster on the half shell, way to go. read more

Flaming Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Dallas, Texas

My buddies and I were super hungry on Friday and couldn't decide between pizza, wings, Chinese buffet, or a Mongolian grill. We decided to give this place a try. Decent price. $11.99 for a buffet is not a bad deal. Very clean place and lots of variety to choose from! I ended up being able to not only shovel down the typical Chinese cuisine, but I also was able to down some buffalo wings, pizza, and even cheese sticks!! They also had a grill where you could do your own "Mongolian grill" plate where you get to choose the combination of what you want grilled. It lost a star for me because I love to frequent the soft serve machine and it was not working properly. It came out as a milkshake instead of soft serve. All in all I would totally come back and plan on doing that soon. Bonus: I was able to experience my friend trying crawfish for the first time and it was hysterical. Wish I had a video to show you. read more

Ever since the closing of the beloved Szechuan Pavilion, my husband and I have been on the hunt for a decent Chinese buffet. SP spoiled us- it was reliably tasty, clean, well stocked and run by a great family who kept up the quality and ambience. As we've learned, these elements aren't easy to find in a Chinese buffet... So we decided to give Flaming Buffet a try, though we'd been somewhat turned off by the bright exterior each time we drove by on the way to Franki's Italian around the corner. We should have taken it as a sign- the interior is so bright, the place could moonlight as a surgical theater. Neon surrounds the dining area, fluorescent lamps hover, and chrome is abundant. The food isn't bad, I grant you- but you'd do well to feel enthusiastic about your choices, as you'll be peering at them with microscopic clarity. It's that damned bright. The other thing: Kids. LOTS OF KIDS. I don't mind kids, and I understand why folks bring them to these places, but there were so many of them that I couldn't hear adult voices. A sort of swarm of tiny humans, vocalizing and running about, bumping into adults, and each other, as though in a living pinball machine. It was odd, and had an air of flirting with Lord of the Flies territory. I can't imagine what Tuesday is like- the place strongly advertises that on this day of the week, Kids Eat Free. Shudder. In all, if you like your dining excruciatingly well lit and piled high with children, give Flaming Buffet a go. For now, I'll stick with my fond, hungry memories of a better time and place... read more

Food is alright except for the fact that people let their kids go serve themselves and they make a mess. I was also appalled by the fact that they would not charge me a child's meal for my 10 year old daughter. They said they don't go by age they go by height. Due to this I will not be visiting this establishment ever again. read more

They have crab legs on Fridays and serve them warm instead of cold like I've seen at other buffets. All the other food was pretty fresh and the hibachi looked good although I didn't get a chance to try it. You can't beat the price for all you can eat seafood! read more

I'm not really a fan of buffets in general, but my father and I realized we wanted Chinese at 9:30 at night. Man this place is HUGE! The food and everything is just so clean. There's a lot of variety. And they're open later! I will most likely return :) read more

Pretty clean spot , has varieties of Chinese food buffet on the weekday is $7.99 not bad.

First time at this place and I was impressed with everything. It was CLEAN unlike a ton of other buffet places. Then a lot of variety options to choose from and real sushi options. Still had some doubts until I tasted the food. Fresh, seasoned just right and yes fresh not frozen. Finally someone who understands frozen crap sucks. 12 stars for great owners!! read more
