We were on our way home from Florida and looking for a buffet. Flaming Grill came up. The food was unique , the crab rangoon was lovely. The flavored chicken wings were on point . So much seafood! Not enough utensils to get the seafood out of the shells necessarily, but everything was tasty. The Hibachi Grill had so many choices and it was ready for anyone who wanted to create their own masterpiece. So we would highly recommend this Buffet to anybody who's passing through Columbia South Carolina . read more

I had to put the one star because I couldn't put zero, the food was TRASH and was very soggy and undercooked. I will not recommend to no one. But lowkey the dude wearing AirPods and cooking teriyaki was chill, he made my day. read more

DONT NOT COME HERE!!! It is over priced and the food is trash I literally had to spit out my food. All that I liked was the ice cream and the jello everything else was stale and or had no taste to it. I fear the prices need to be lower or the food needs to be edible!! Somehow they even made French fries taste none edible. Do not waste your money. None the less it doesn't help you have workers watching you eat right behind you. Let's not forget the dirty looks we received while being watched eating from behind. read more

We passed by here and randomly picked a buffet. We were very lucky to find this buffet. The food was very fresh, there was a lot of seafood, and the price was also very reasonable, $23.99, including snow crab legs and Vietnamese noodles! read more

Decided to check out this Chinese buffet. Went here on a Saturday evening the prices are a little bit higher on the weekend then if you go for their for lunch I believe that's before 3:30 during the week but it's still not bad for the price they're charging that some other Chinese buffets are charging especially on the weekend. Going in I was wecome by the person at the front that ask how many people in our party then they walk you to your table. After that we had a waitress that came over get our drinks . By the way the drinks are a extra charge but refills are included free . The service was good but personality-wise was just not there they weren't very sociable. They had many different selections of food and a Hibachi Grill some of the food on the Hibachi Grill especially the chicken did not look very good looks like it was sitting out too long. The shrimp that I had was delicious there are many other things to choose around the restaurant the classic things that usually you find in other Chinese buffets. They have a dessert freezer that you can pick from ice creams cones and regular cups of ice cream as well as ice cream sandwiches that was also delicious. Overall I would say for the most part the food was very good just that there are certain things to look out for that I would stay away from The place was pretty big they have plenty of room for their customers there the restroom was very clean as well. read more

The last time I was here the food wasn't so great but now under new management (I guess new chef too) it's great. It's authentic. I'm glad they have snow crab legs now. Their water is clean. I'm glad it's filter water not just tap water. They have crab legs every day at 3:30 for dinner. Wish they have lobster on holidays. Staffs are friendly. The restroom is clean but they should have an automated faucet so I don't need to touch the handle. read more

Flaming Grill & Supreme Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Absolutely AMAZING food and experience! Service is very authentic (which is to say Asian and reserved, not Southern and constantly in your face) but our server was very attentive. It may be the best buffet with the widest variety I've ever seen. Obviously the great majority is Asian-themed but they also serve Lowcountry Boil as well as a few Southern staples like Mac & Cheese. The entire back wall is a pick-what-want Hibachi order line. Ice cold beer and huge glasses of Coca~Cola! read more

We've been going here for a few years, our visit last night was underwhelming. The whole place needs a facelift, it looks very run down, from the parking lot, to the landscaping, inside all the tables and chairs need replacing. The salad bar was almost non existent . Just some lettuce and only Ranch dressing. It seems the whole selection has gotten much smaller, for $24.95, we can find much nicer places read more

I was pleasantly surprised. Everything was fresh and tasted really good. I tried everything from the pizza and mac and cheese to the regular chinese options and sushi. This place did not disappoint. I appreciated that everything was hot. Sometimes buffets can get cold. The staff was friendly and we always had full glasses. read more

Flies landing all over the food, dust particles found just sitting on top of the desserts, and everything i tried made me feel nauseous. If you want a drink, they charge extra which took me from 21$ to 28$, as well as the tip they added without telling me. I've heard of many accounts of food poisoning from here, and by looking at/tasting the food, I can tell why. The 'large ice cream bar' they claim that they have via their website is really just a cooler with packaged artificially flavored ice cream. The employees are constantly watching over you 24/7 the whole time your there which makes me feel so weird. read more

We came here last Christmas Eve and were pleasantly surprised by the quality and selection, which is why we decided to return this year. Unfortunately, this visit could not have been more different. The moment we walked in, the restaurant was unbearably hot. It felt suffocating and extremely uncomfortable. When we got to the buffet, the food was clearly overcooked and dried out. The chicken I had was unevenly heated, with cold spots throughout, and nothing we tried tasted good. The seafood was the one thing my son was looking forward to, but even that was a huge disappointment. The crab legs were rubbery, barely had any meat, and were clearly not fresh. To say we were disappointed would be an understatement. We are now honestly worried about getting sick on Christmas Eve. Our total bill was over $180, and for that price, we could have gone to a nice sit-down restaurant with appetizers and drinks. When I calmly mentioned our disappointment to the cashier, she became visibly upset--rolling her eyes and slamming our ticket down. That response alone made an already bad experience even worse. We are a family of six and don't go out often, so this was meant to be a special Christmas Eve treat. Instead, it was a complete letdown. The dirty dishes and unsanitary bathrooms were extremely concerning--my hands felt dirtier after washing them. It honestly made me question the cleanliness of the kitchen. If you're thinking about coming here, don't do it. This place has gone downhill fast, and we will never be returning Only reason I even gave one star was because I had to read more

food is amazing!! service is top notch!! the ambiance is on point!! the sushi is fresh and the variety is amazing!! read more

I went to Flaming Grill today because I checked their prices online and it stated that it was $17.99 for All Day Dinner Saturday and Sunday. When I received my bill it was over $47 and with tax it was $52.30 I am not sure what the disparaging was in the price posted and the price charged. The food was okay. It was hot but some of the dishes were lacking flavor. They cook the crab legs too long in their version of crab boil. They have crab legs on the cold bar, but I prefer hot and seasoned crab legs. They have their version of hot wings which are very tasty and the Chinese donuts were hot and delicious. With the exception of the price I would try it again just during the week though. read more

Very good buffet we had huge shrimp that were cold and cold crab legs for the lunch menu along with many other items. We will go back when in the area read more

It was terrible they I don't like it. The food is cold and smells so bad. The service is terrible. They do to help me they didn't want to help me they just looking on me and laughing when I called them. read more

Flaming Grill & Supreme Buffet - They're not clean a table - Buffets Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Was visiting a friend here in Columbia in May 2025 and he took us to Flaming Grill buffet.. We thought the very large selection of food was quite good, had great service and thought the price for dinner reasonable.... read more

Stopped in yesterday for lunch...probably the 10th or so visit over the last year. And to start off, it's a Chinese buffet, so my expectations aren't exceptionally high for this category of restaurant. This visit was by far the worst selection and quality of food. Based on visit the place has dropped below average for a buffet. Sushi selection/quality wasn't as good as previous visits. Buffet item selection and taste weren't as good as previously experienced. Habachi wasn't as good either. Guess there aren't many people who actually know how to make Chinese food cooking or overseeing the operation. The wait staff doesn't seem too motivated, but again, probably a little below average for a buffet. For the price, no longer worth it. I'd pass unless desperate for a quick meal. read more

The food was absolutely disgusting. Most of it was cold and/or stale. The lo mein was spaghetti noodles with teriyaki sauce. We left hungry. They did have good and fresh chicken wings one kind. read more

The service and the food was great. Plenty to choose from from is what I like the most out the buffet.

Fist of all the service really bad, this one Chinese lady was giving attitude and was waiting for us to leave immediately, and we had to ask for more coke because the waitress only served us once. The food was not that good I wanted to eat meat but the meat they had was horrible. The ambiance was calm, the restrooms stink and they look nasty. This was my first and last time. I had really high expectations because the restaurant looked cute, but the waitress was really rude like she wanted us to hurry up and go already. read more

Their food gave me a very bad case of food poisoning I believe they cook bad clams be aware I've been sick for 3 weeks after eating there!!! NEVER AGAIN!! read more

Food is nasty! Price is okay for buffet but you get what you pay for!!! Don't believe the social media videos!

Genuinely grateful I did not get food poisoning here. I can't believe I actually ate the food... if you enjoy flies in your food, risking getting food poisoning, and overall food with little or bad taste then I recommend this place. By far, the worst restaurant/buffet I have ever been to in my life. Only decent food was the sugar pastries. Staff were nice though! read more

service and atmosphere great ! the food was great except i prefer my crablegs to be warm . they should have microwaves where you could warm your crablegs . read more

DO NOT GO!!! The service was HORRIBLE. The food was mediocre and is notorious for giving people food poisoning. I was on the toilet for hours and it was awful ! read more

The parking lot and walkway right outside the door are absolutely disgusting. Saw food ground into the pavement and garbage strewn everywhere. Told the hostess who didn't seem to care. Wonder what the kitchen looks like. read more

About the 10th time I've been here with my beautiful mom. It's always good,but the weekends are the best. All day dinner buffet on weekends includes multiple varieties of shrimp,juicy roast beef,great sesame chicken and tasty egg rolls. Hibachi grill is included with freshly prepared sushi. Never had either. Well stocked and recently remodeled. Brand new tables and chairs. Pleasant music playing in the background. This has been a nice surprise of a find. Only place to eat when we are in the area. Get here early. Their open 7 days a week. Daisy was our server the last few times.....always with a smile. Now it's time for some Tirimisu and a really long walk followed by a well earned nap. Oh boy!! read more

This would not be my pick of restaurant; because, I do not like buffets. We went on Sunday for lunch. It was busy and the floors were really, really dirty. The bathroom had no toilet paper on the roller; but there was plenty all over the floor which continued to get stuck on my shoes. Gross! One toilet needed attention and then there was no soap! If I knew all this before I ate, I would have skipped lunch. I guess their attention is on cleaning plates off the table and restocking the food in the line. There seemed to be just enough of each item. The food: Kids- chocolate fountain with marshmallows Ice cream bar- typical, cookies and cream and mint chocolate chip. The only thing that I felt was great and I gave them a star for the ice cream. read more

Great menu choices. Went the night of NFC Conference Final. They were shorthanded but the manager or GM stepped in and up big time. Going back because of him. read more

Got a great laugh from the website suggesting anyone would need to make reservations. I've pulled food from a trashcan during my homeless days more palatable than anything I tried here. There was one highlight of the meal. Which actually, for a split second curbed some of my disappointment regarding the entire dining experience. That was the coconut ice cream bar stuck to the bottom of a dirty deep freezer that I had to fight to remove in a battle that can only be compared to trying to remove Excalibur from the stone it was encased in. It was only after realizing it was prepackaged and probably from the nearest Wal-Mart that my disappointment returned to hit me harder than the food posioning that kept me bed ridden for two days did. Waiter kept the drinks coming though 10/10. read more

If you're not familiar with the area, you may not even know this place is here. Nice selection and variety on the buffet. They also have a hibachi and sushi station. Each are included in the buffet price but you can get made to order sushi for an extra fee if you don't like what's on the bar. Some of the food could've been warmer but that's to be expected with a buffet. They sell sake--which I haven't seen at many buffets. Our waitress was nice enough and somewhat attentive. The prices are decent. read more

Where do I start? We found out about this place online, the place looked so much better in pictures. When we arrived, the place looked very sketchy & dirty. Now the food, just by looking at it it also seemed off. The smell, the look and the taste was awful especially the seafood. The person who attended our table barely would go check on us and at the end before we left she had the audacity to ask me for a tip. I have NEVER been asked for a tip ever in my life. She was blocking my way out, I was sitting down and she was in front of me blocking my way until I gave her a tip. I DO NOT recommend anyone to come here, it was AWFUL. read more

Very clean with a lot of variety. Lunch price is reasonable but does not include a drink. Sushi bar was lacking variety. Hibachi grill was good with lots of choices. I would eat here again if I was craving Chinese buffet. read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would! This is the worst!!! Not a lot of options, no kid options, they have chips there that were stale even though it was a buffet. The jello had no flavor. Seriously how hard is it to make simple jello. None of the food was appetizing. All of my kids stomachs hurt after that restaurant. One of my kids got a fortune cookie and there was no fortune in it!!!! Don't recommend! Worst buffet ever!!! read more

Flaming grill Columbia sc !!!! Do not eat here .All food is days old just being upgraded again . everything is cold. The grill cook doesn't even listen what you what kind of sauce I want. Only asks for tip money. when my son went back for the sauce he asked for and takes the plate of chicken immediately throws it away and says I want a tip. Just like that servant hooker with the blonde lock and tattoo thought she was getting tip money. Let them going to work as a hooker my wife wanted to switch from coke to orange she went completely crazy. No never saw us there again. Food is poison I wouldn't even send my dog ​​there read more

We went early for lunch. The price is great. There are more items on the buffet than I can describe and I ate most of them. There is a sushi chef and a hibachi grill. Plenty of shellfish and shrimp. A wait staff provides prompt drink service and removes plates as soon as you finish. There is also a salad bar and a dessert bar. Chinese, Japanese and American cuisine is provided. You can't eat this much food anywhere for their price. The restaurant was clean and the buffet was kept stocked. read more
