Tried to go to the Royal Buffet in DeMotte but they're closed until July 5th, so decided to give…read morethis place a try. Got there around 2:20 and not a car anywhere near the place. "Open" sign was on. Walk in. Narrow little room with plywood sheeting on your right . . . over time I concluded that there used to be a dining room there but it's now plywooded [can't really say "walled"] off. Little window to order through. Small table with a handful of menus. Color papers printed and stuck on walls showing "pictures" of some of their offerings. 1. The rather unpleasant young lady who took our order and our $135 screwed it up.. I clearly said, and pointed to, Hot Singapore Chow Fun as one of 7 entrees, a PuPu Platter, Egg rolls, Chicken Teriyaki. Instead of the Singapore, I got the House Special Chow Mein. How do I know? Because they give your menu where she circled the items. I wasn't going to drive 46 miles round trip to get it corrected. 2. Greasiest egg rolls I've seen, let alone ate, in my 64 years. They actually dripped grease as you bit into them. A bit over-fried, too. 3. Chicken teriyaki was so dry, they should advertise it as chicken jerky. Not worth 1/3rd of the $8.25 for 5 sticks. The stuff that comes out of "Jacks Links" Jerky is more tender and has more moisture. Royal Buffet's chicken sticks are 100x better. 4. Scallops in PuPu platter had too much batter, and probably the minuscule shrimp, too, but it could have been that there wasn't any shrimp at all, could be they just gave me batter with a tail. Crab rangoon was quite good. Egg roll's in PuPu advertised as shrimp . . . I'd need a lab to verify there was single molecule of shrimp in that cylinder of grease and crisp shell. 5. Daughter thought Mongolian Beef was "really, really good" and she also liked her House Special Lo Mein. She also really liked the white rice that was provided. 6. Didn't talk to son about how the house special fried rice or chicken and broccoli were. 7. Haven't had my kung pao chicken yet. 8. House special chow mein [given erroneously] wasn't inedible. Never had ordered it before so I had nothing to compare it to. Will never order it again. Anywhere. So food: 2 1/2 stars Service: 1 star [Young lady wasn't very pleasant and seemed to be put out by having to take our order] Ambience: 0 stars [a dump], even for what's now basically a carry out place Rounded up from the average of 7/6ths to give a reluctant 2 stars. Next time, I'll be more than happy to drive an ADDITIONAL 46 miles round trip for better food.

BC Osaka is one of my favorite buffet restaurants! They have a huge selection of food, including…read morefresh sushi, hibachi, seafood, and plenty of hot dishes. Everything was fresh and constantly refilled. The hibachi grill was delicious, and the sushi was surprisingly good for a buffet. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was excellent. There are so many options that everyone can find something they enjoy. Great value for the price--I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

I would've had given zero stars but you can't. This buffet is horrible! The tongs are hot, but the…read morefood itself is cold! The food is flavorless, and it was 90 dollars for 4 people no wonder why! The drinks were actually the best thing in that buffet somehow. The buffet looks fancy on the outside, and the entrance, but once you go in to the food place it has very limited options! The service wasn't that bad though. The mini cakes in the dessert isle is also horrible, and should have an health inspection. I saw multiple flys on top of them laying eggs! The food is cold, very limited options, and flys everywhere! DO NOT COME, SAVE YOUR MONEY

We stopped in about an…read morehour before close, so we weren't sure what to expect, but the buffet still had a decent amount of food. Everything tasted delicious! My two favorites were the coconut shrimp & the green beans. Both had so much flavor. I'm still thinking about the shrimp. There was also a cold bar which had lots of tasty options. The desserts were amazing. I really enjoyed the cakes & jellos. You could also order take out and the prices were very reasonable! The food was delicious. Everything was fresh. We couldn't have asked for a better dinner!

Perfect, the sauce is hard to describe, but it balanced everything out perfectly. The dumplings were perfect! A mixture of meats in the middle that were savory and sweet at the same time and I like things that are not fried so that really Works with my pallet. Singapore Fun is just spicy enough, thin noodles, beef/chicken/shrimp and onions. So delicious! Sadly, I ate everything before I could get a picture of it... Again. I highly recommend this restaurant, but their sign outside is missing which might make it hard to find.

I'm staying in town overnight for work. I was in the mood for Chinese. I ordered chicken and…read morebroccoli and two spring rolls. All I can say is that there was hardly any chicken, too much broccoli. It was to come with vegetable lo mein. There was not one vegetable in the lo mein. Pure noodles. The food was bland, taste was oily, and lacked any flavor. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food in my life. This ranks at the bottom.

Had a rough experience here today. Wanna hear about it? Buckle up!…read more So I've eaten at this place no less than 60 times over the last five years and most of the time, 80% even, it's incredible. Like one of the best meals you can have in the area. But the other 20%? Varying degrees of diabolical and today was the worst. Ordered my usual red curry described in detail on the menu as "Bell peppers, bamboo shoots, hot peppers, coconut milk, & fresh basil" and you guessed it, the curry itself is red. What I got today was pumpkin orange, overpoweringly sweet, and hodgepodge of vegetables that have no business being in a spicy dish (or are in the menu's description) carrots, baby corn, mushrooms, cabbage and not a dang bell pepper in sight. I tried, and I was calm ladies and gentlemen; I know the waiter didn't make the food and I never get heated with service industry workers period, their job is hard enough. But when I explained this to the waiter he tried telling me what coconut milk tastes like after I explained to him this was my go-to meal at his restaurant. I know this doesn't matter and young people aren't great listeners but this is an $80 for two meal with a dish I didn't order and side of gaslighting. Sad to say this is the straw that broke the camels back and I am going to miss those 8 awesome yearly meals. *The food ordered was correct on the receipt.

The sushi was also incredibly fresh, which I really appreciate. I hardly eat sushi anymore, so when I do, it has to be good. The yellowtail was perfect, and I also loved the jalapeño crunch roll. I thought the prices were very fair, and the atmosphere is cozy and casual. It's not fancy, but it's the perfect little spot to grab a delicious bite. Definitely give this place a try--and whatever you do, get the green curry!

Unfortunately, both entrees were severely lacking; ultimately wasting $30. Pad Thai - I ordered with shrimp and it came with burnt crushed peanuts and the flavor was off and much too sweet although I requested spicy level 1. Egg Rolls - The egg rolls were mostly wrapper as if they skimped on the filling. Service -- The guy at the register was cordial but the cook who brought the food was pleasant. Ambiance -- There is definitely room for improvement as the ceiling seems to be sagging in spots.
