This buffet is practically perfect. The only downside is the cleanliness of the bathrooms; they're always dirty, and frankly, that's the most important thing since children use them, and it's disgusting. read more

The food was not hot, it was cold as if they took it out of the fridge seconds ago. The service was just ok. The place is very dirty. The sauce for the food was not matching the meats like chicken. I will never be back in this lifetime. I am very disappointed with this establishment. Please shut it down and call the health department immediately!!! read more

I would never eat here again. This is food health and safety concern. 1st parking is crazy in here. Barely any spots and teens just running around everywhere. 2nd the sushi was left out for gosh how long. I was 2 hr and I didn't see it removed or any new sushi coming out. SO DONT EAT THE SUSHI. 3rd the crabs were like old didn't taste fresh 4th they really are cheap like you only get one plastic silverware for the entire night 4th my biggest concern that it is so dirty. The floors are sticky. The bathroom is so dirty. The buffet area is messy. I saw dirty plates and dirty mugs there. They weren't washed at all. I felt gross sitting here. The service was only decent thing. They regularly came to clear the plates and get us stuff if we asked for more water or utensils. read more

Seafood boil items were not seasoned properly. Seems like they tossed the stuff right before putting into the bag, so unless I dipped the food into the bottom of the bag I was left with tasteless food. read more

Food, service, atmosphere was well worth the price. I've been going there long before the pandemic and the place is still well worth it. It's not top of the line but the price isn't neither; therefore, it's a great value. read more

first of all, this is not the best buffet I went to it could be better Chinese food and give it Chinese. It stinks in here. Sushi do not taste like sushi could be better. Yeah the desserts are not that good and not fresh fruit will never come to this ghetto place ever again. read more

I know the pandemic has affected the buffet industry hard, but this was a disappointment. I have came here before the pandemic and it was good. Now, it's different. The coconut shrimp barely had any sauce, making it mostly just fried shrimp. Selections were limited and not that good. Chicken would be overcooked and many selections were bland or just not worth eating. I do not understand why cups are disposable since it is cheaper to rewash. Maybe it is for less labor with the limited employees. The "tissues" were rough as paper towels, even more rougher. read more

Clean, looked fresh (except for the sushi). I mostly ate the hibachi. Was good but a little oily due to whatever cook was using. There are better, similar buffets, and plenty of worse ones. Nearly twenty bucks though for 1 dinner buffet and 1 fountain soda. The paper cups and plastic utensils are a bit off putting too. read more

Flaming Grill Buffet - Hibachi Grill Special - Seafood Near Me - Oxon Hill, Maryland

This place has gone downhill from when we were here some years ago prior to pandemic. I asked for sweet and sour sauce but was given small sauce packets instead of freshly made sauce. Wait staff blocking a few tables in the middle of the dining room where they wrap utensils or fold napkins. They were also unattentive and does not check on us for anything we need. Not coming back again. read more

I go to this buffet 2 -3 times a month with my elderly father. We absolutely love this place. Best food for the value. Great quality of food and good service. I strongly recommend this buffet for the best budget buffet in the area. read more

I was at this place Saturday with my Mama. I was sooo dispointed for I have been to this place a time a 2 before. Some of the food was not hot. The crabs had too much water in them and the amount of salt the used on the chicken and fish was way too much. Like I've said this wasn't my first time there but my first time not liking the food. The waiters were nice and cleaned up in a timely fashion. Just really didn't enjoy the food this time around read more

Me and my family ate there yesterday... The first plate of food I had was ok it wasn't hot enough and most of it was super bland, I went to get a second plate of food and I got some sushi which had gone bad and was not edible. The service here was decent but they have a sign at the front of the building telling you that if you waste food they will surcharge you extra money so I had to argue with them about a surcharge over the sushi that I didn't eat that went bad. My mom and dad were with me and we are all sick today. DO NOT EAT HERE. The food was awful they tried to charge us extra, and the building was disgusting. read more

Flaming Grill Buffet - Dead roach inside drink cup - Seafood Near Me - Oxon Hill, Maryland

The restaurant only provides plastic silverware and paper cups. The food was not fresh and was not served hot. We ate dinner at 5:30 pm, so you would expect hot and fresh food. The waitress had a bad attitude. I recommend you find another restaurant to eat at. read more

The food is tasty and enjoyable. My only set back on this are the plastic bags used to deliver the foods. It's too difficult to handle with so much juice inside. Maybe the plastic bags are used in order to accommodate the big long crab legs. Perhaps the crab legs should be served in a separate container! Other than that we really enjoy our foods from Flaming Grill Buffett Restaurant! read more

Good place but has the exact same items since the day they opened, geez change some of the items please. Also music is frequently so loud, you can't enjoy the meal. Service is great read more

Look elsewhere if you want good food. If you want quantity over quality then come here. You'll like it. But for me, I don't like it. I mean I don't hate the place but the food just isn't very good. They do have a wide range of different types of food from seafood, sushi, Chinese, Americian, etc. Its an international cuisine up in here. Also when you are the only Asians at a Chinese Buffet besides the workers, that gives you a hint. read more

Came here on a Sunday for dinner with family. There wasn't much of a line so the staff greeted us and seated us once we paid first. Just from walking in, I could tell there was a ton of food selection. My first dish was from the hibachi grill. This is where you gather your own ingredients and the cooks grill it for you. You can either wait there, or get other food to your table and come back. It takes about 5 minutes to cook everything. The buffet has a lot of options. They had a lot of seafood options here. Especially the shrimp. They had coconut shrimp, fried popcorn shrimp, lightly battered shrimp, steamed shrimp hot/cold... There was also a sushi section which I didn't try. They of course have a variety of other classic Chinese stir fry's like chicken, pork lo mein. Their dessert is also plentiful with a bunch of fruits, cakes, ice creams. It was worth it for the price. read more

Pre-pandemic, this was my family's favorite buffet. We live over an hour away and we would still drive there once a month. However, today's experience was simply disgusting and disappointing. With COVID still raging on, I am trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. They shut down their salad, fruit and dessert bar completely. Only the prepackaged ice cream is available. They also shut down a few hot lines. Extremely limited offerings. Now I understand, they have to cut costs due to the pandemic. But taking away so many choices is horrible. There is NO REASON you should have to pay full price, when the buffet is only 1/3 open. I wish I could say it was still worth it, but it wasn't. The waitress was extremely inattentive, despite very few people there. But the WORST thing is the lack of cleanliness. There is no reason, pandemic or no pandemic, not to wash drink pitchers. I am horrified that my children and myself drank out of this. There's just no excuse. read more

Came here on a Tuesday night with my boyfriend. Definitely a much better buffet than the one over by Iverson mall. Two dinners and one bottle soda was about $39. They do not have fountain drinks here only the bottles. Another weird thing is they give you paper cups with ice or ice water if you didn't get a drink. And a plastic fork. At least the plates were actual plates. Either way, it's the food that matters, and they do a good job. The coconut shrimp was by far my favorite item, and it was actually done right, not too soupy, and not overly breaded. A few other good items worth mentioning is the baked imitation crab dish, the fried fish, and the cheesy spinach. They had crabs on the buffet here as well, but I did not care for them here at all, not sure if they were overcooked or what. Dessert they had a few different things including some decent flan and carrot cakes, plus a cooler filled with different flavored ice cream cups. read more

Sorry my initial review should have been 2.5 stars NOT 4. Service is not great but the food is. For a place like this specially the hibachi. Also fountain drinks are no longer included. read more

Overall, the food is okay, but it's pretty unsanitary. There were several plates that were clearly not clean. And the limited service that did exist in the restaurant was pretty poor, the server led us to the general area of our table and didn't even turn around to look at us and tell us which table we were sitting at and instead started talking to her friend... In regards to the food, I enjoyed a lot of the various meats, but they were admittedly cheap and very greasy. My only liked the chicken on a stick. The deserts were rather abismal as well, not much to enjoy there. And the worst part was that my fortune cookie came already cracked!! I wouldn't recommend this place to most people. read more

I've actually been here three times but all before the glory days aka being an elite. For some unknown reason the Flaming Grill Buffet called our names last night and we answered. For the record the parking lot at night is going to give you anxiety and you're you'll probably shout "pumpernickel" or "Jelly Bean" to other drivers. However; the anxiety and food related curse words will go away once you get inside. Although an occasional "holy guacamole" may slip out when you see the countless options to choose from. If you're going around dinner time expect to pay about $12 a person (dining in) without a drink. You'll be lead to a table and then the Flaming Grill Buffet is your oyster. Salad bar- Have it Dessert bar- Have it Novelty ice cream- Have it Mass quantities of sea food- Have it Fresh sushi- Have it Hibachi- Have it Silly American food- Have it Typical Chinese dishes- Have it This place really does have a lot of options. As a vegetarian my options were limited... but I was able to eat three pounds (or so it felt) of custom made hibachi. This is truely where we get our money's worth. Either load up on meat/seafood or vegetables and they make it in front of you. It does take about five minutes but it's worth the wait. read more

Love the food especially the seafood and the Mac and cheese are wonderful both a lot of black people eat everyone Mac and cheese but the Mac and cheese bomb read more

Not good at all save your money and go somewhere else. Nothing fancy and kind of ahhhhh like yeah keep your money. Tried everything and wasn't pleased it was horrible, should have read other reviews though before going. Bright side nope sorry no bright side IG i could do a negative one I would!!! read more

The place is unsanitary and trashy, the food is nasty and the servers have a nasty attitude. A waste of my 20 dollars and I will never come back here. read more

Website hypes them up so much, extremely limited options, extremely bland. Would not recommend to my worst enemy.

This is a Chinese food buffet, if you're expecting more than that you're in the wrong place. With that said I was pleasantly surprised by the flashy decor of the place. It hasn't been open long and this shows through in the bright blue lights, un-smudged mirrors, and striking pillars within the building. That's about all that is good about Flaming Grill. Each plate I had was like Russian roulette. It was a 50/50 chance that it would be good and/or distinguishable. I didn't rely heavily on the food labels above the food as I saw a few liberties being taken with their names (were they guessing too if it was an egg roll or french fries?). Not to mention 80% of the food was dripping in grease or sauce. My excitement faded when I got up close and personal with the "sushi" bar. While it did have sushi---it was old frighteningly old (the avocado was brown and the rice was hard), and I had no idea what was what, or what it suppose to be, as there weren't any labels at all. There was a fresh hibachi style meat that you could have cooked for you. And I would've partook in that experience had the "fresh" meats available not been still stacked with the frozen paper separating them. And right next to a see-through top deep freezer showing where the meat was being taken from. This is a rookie mistake. The only saving grace about the Grill buffet was the snow crab legs (labeled as "Blue Crabs") of which I had 3 platefuls of, seeing as how I hadn't eaten anything else on the buffet. All in all, I would say don't waste your time. Stay home, order in your favorite Chinese delivery and splurge a little on something you usually don't get. Because everything at the buffet you've had before and more than likely have had it better. read more

This buffet, I suppose, is okay for $12 (in the DMV area) considering that the quality is pretty meh, but at least you get a wide variety of meh. It certainly hits a quick Chinese buffet fix. After reviewing the photos for this business and coming across the photo of the cockroach in someone's food, I reaffirmed my decision on eating here by telling myself that it's probably just a once in a while thing. Whatever. I mean the more sketchier the food, the better, amirite? I did not expect to be a victim myself on this fateful night.. hidden in the miniature tree branches of my broccoli floret was, alas, a dead maggot looking bug. I was lucky enough to just bite through half of the floret before spotting this little guy as I usually stuff the whole thing in my mouth.. but maybe I devoured his friend without knowing. On the bright side, though, maybe I got some extra protein. All in all, I've had much more variety and better quality without any bugs in my food elsewhere for even cheaper, if you'll believe me. read more

Awesome buffet great food just wish the whole section of the isle would be open were food would be at. The Service is amazing where good waitresses. read more

I stopped by here to get take out food for my parents. Always a good selection of food especially shrimp. They can weigh your food by the pound and they even have sushi and dessert if you want. Its more economical than buying separate Chinese dishes from a restaurant. read more

Three star food at a five star price = 4 stars. An incredible selection of decent, all-you-can-eat fare for about $8 with tax, plus tip. The star of the show is the hibachi, where you pile up your choice of fresh veggies and raw meats and seafood for the chef to cook in front of you on the grill. The rest of the offerings are mostly deep-fried, swimming in butter, or a mayo/cream-based sauce. Once you see what you're getting for your money, the signs upfront that they can demand proof of your child's age start to make sense. The margins they're running on have to be super thin. read more

Have you ever been hit on by a man named JuneBaby, at a buffet, let alone right in front of your boyfriend and his mom?! Ahhhhh. Happened here! He even gave me an awkward side hug, I'm thinking, man you don't know me. Yikes! OMG. Crazy. I'm sure we will be joking about it for a long time. Anyway, this place is your standard buffet. Lunch prices are awesome, $7.49 even on Saturdays! The food is typical - rice, soup, fried foods, chicken dishes, beef dishes, pork dishes, sushi, hibachi. Everything was average but the things that stood out were the fried fish (seasoned perfectly), pork dumplings, and their ice cream - they had not just the ice cream cups, but Popsicles and ice cream bars! I've never seen that at a buffet. Place is clean, colorful, and the manager was nice, so were all the wait staff. Pretty good buffet, especially for the price! read more

Buffet food was so so but the hibachi station was a great addition. For the price you can't beat it. Def would recommend

Would give no stars if that was possible! The Oxen Hill (black side of town) in Maryland is Filthy. The food is unsavory. There were dead flies in window boxes next to our booth. Entrance doors (glass) were soiled. No windex or other basic cleaning supplies used to maintain the place. Walking on the "carpet" felt like you were standing in grease. My shoes felt sticky just walking in the place. When we asked Management about food being cold we were told that other customers were not complaining so therefore as far as they were concerned our complaints were nul. read more

The food was barely warm and not worth the calories. The best part of my meal was the fried shrimp. There was a pan of baked fish with an orange colored sauce. It looked very appetizing but had absolutely no flavor at all. The service was okay but a visit from the health department would be helpful. If the dishes come out the kitchen stained or soiled, imagine what the kitchen looks like. One visit was enough for me. read more

Ordered Combo #1 (snow crab cluster, shrimp, corn and potatoes) with Flaming Special Sauce through DoorDash. It was bomb! And came quick, so food was still piping hot! Will definitely order again. read more

I give it a 3 star review Even though the food was good wasn't the best but still good that's why didn't give it an extra star the other star I took away because I was about to eat one of the desserts and luckily for me my friend spotted an a ant in my food My other friend with me didn't eat at all he didn't want any of the Chinese delicacies so he got his refund while leaving and they said it would take two business days other than that the place is pretty good I like the food they have food I haven't eaten in a while and it just gets better they're not too expensive for an all-you-can-eat buffet they have a lot of kid friendly meals Chicken nuggets fries chicken pizza garlic bread read more

Not sure if their soft drink machine is just not working or if they only do bottles but $3 for a bottle of soda to drink with no refills is ridiculous. The price for the buffet itself seemed pretty fair. Pictures of the restaurant show many items that are not actually found on the buffet line, green beans for instance. No rangoons and no sweet and sour sauce. Most of their chicken tastes like it was cooked in fish oil although their teriyaki chicken on a stick was the best I've had in a while. Sushi selection was lacking and none of the food seemed to be labeled properly for any dish. The hibachi was decent, but you don't choose sauce only the ingredients. No toppings for salad aside from low quality dressing. The employees seemed polite and the restaurant seemed pretty clean. Ice cream for dessert was good. read more

First if all let me say this. Appearance will tell everything you need to know about an establishment. Star rating 3 so I decided to take my Dad. Greeting. I go okay. When we were seated I looked at the seats and wanted to walk out. Our community deserves better. I am sure you bring more than enough financially to replace the seating Secondly. When you are picking up the used dinnerware the tubs look like they haven't been replaced in years. This just tells me what your kitchen may look like. Our community keeps coming snd you do nothing to make you feel like the food could be good to some visiting for the first time. I could not eat based on my observation and what I saw today. I won't be back! read more
