    I found a fingernail in my food. Grossest experience ever. Do not recommend. Couldn't eat for days after. Don't give them your money.

    Sam B's holds a special place in my heart. As someone who grew up in Bowling Green, it feels like…read moreit's been around forever, and while I know the ownership has changed over the years, the spirit is alive and well. The food is surprisingly dialed in, with high-quality ingredients and deep know-how in the kitchen. Surprising only because the atmosphere and service are a little rough around the edges. Things like chipped plates take a lot away from the otherwise expertly prepared food, and the urgent nature of the service detracts from a proper date night. That said, BG is a college town, and Main Street is the epicenter of drunkenness, so I imagine it would be difficult not to have things set up the way they are -- a place built for the pace of a college town, focused on high-quality but quick meals. And maybe I just need to come back in the summer, when the college kids are gone and the townies take over. But seriously, Sam B's is almost perfect. And somehow that actually does make it perfect, for what it is.

    Went here with our daughter for a BGSU Presidents' Day event. Street parking was easy. We did not…read morehave reservations, in the future I would make them for any event, it is small but cozy. Menu has a lot of options can and vegetarian included. Has seafood which I love. Drinks, we started with a Long Island Iced Tea, it was good. Hubby had something like an Elizabeth Taylor IPA? Not sure if he got the name right but the aroma was lovely and it tasted lovely as well. As far as apps daughter ordered the Brussel sprouts with bacon. She and hubby tore it up. It did come really late, it was served with the meal which I will explain later. But, big hit. We all shared my cup of French onion soup. We all had different takes on it. I would deduct one star but clearly everyone has different likes regarding French onion soup. Don't get me wrong the taste was there, but it was very thick like a stew. The croutons were actually store type croutons so that with the thickness, the croutons were hard. Daughter loved that, I did not. Sooo potato tomato (pronunciation). So if it sounds like thick French onion soup with crusty croutons are your thing, you will love it. Entrees, daughter had the goat cheese raspberry salad, she was very happy with it, looked ver fresh. I had the seafood risotto, I'm always hesitant because you can really mess that up in so many ways. I have had many that had a fishy taste, this certainly did not. The kitchen was out of scallops so it was served with extra shrimp. It was excellent. One does pause before ordering seafood when surrounded by farm fields smack dab in Ohio, but they handled it nicely. Hubby had the salmon pesto risotto, while I did not love it, he did. The Brussel sprouts as I mentioned came out with dinner. The service I will say was slow. Our waiter, Seth, apologized and explained that they were not expecting so many people on a Sun night.I would have deducted a Star for the slow service but I felt that he made it right by apologizing, explaining, and did offer a free dessert, which we did not take. We will return and make reservations next time.

    maybe it's because I'm not from a smaller town, but being able to walk into a buffet for two people…read morewith drinks included and walk away for $32... That's impressive- and the weekday is even cheaper. During the week you could eat for 10 bucks per person drinks included. Every other buffet I go to charge is just under $20 and drinks are separate at three bucks apiece This place is clean. Staying on top of this many people shopping their way through multiple food stations is not an easy feet. At one point when my husband and I got up to get a second plate, by the time we returned, our table had been busted wiped, and there was no evidence anyone was ever sitting there. They took everything, including our drinks and condiments, but it's not even annoying. You can't get angry when somebody is on top of Cleaning that quickly. They have all the traditional Chinese dishes, plus some Thai dishes as well. Of course, there are plenty of American classics. For the price, you can't beat Royal Buffet. I would've given them five stars, except there seems to be a little bit of a temperature issue. The cold items were indeed extremely cold, but the hot items were almost cold as well.

    Great buffet with hibachi stir fry with shrimp, beef, chicken. EVEN SHRIMP AT LUNCH! Price $10.99…read morefor Lunch soft drinks included. Amazing food at these prices!!! Service NONE except for bussing dishes. Self serve food, drinks, and gathering your own silverware. No waitresses to tip, though suggested tip of $0.50 at the stir fry hibachi. Pepsi products featured include Diet Pepsi, Pepsi Zero, Mountain Dew, and four to six more. Also Sweet and Unsweetened Tea and maybe coffee all self serve. Stuff scallops best dish, Buffalo chicken wings great, and all other food good to above average. Stir fry was exceptional. Desserts standard but all choices from other Chinese buffets were ALL here plus some I have not seen anywhere else. Variety is better of both hot food and desserts. Self service ice cream in 5 gallon containers the strawberry tasting slightly off. We drove 94 miles from Michigan to go to Rural King in Tifflan. Originally we planned to go to the Asian grill across the street from Rural King. The price there for lunch $1.50 higher AND they charge an additional $2.50 for a beverage. So for the two of us we would have had to pay $8.00 plus tax more. We are actually planning to return this weekend for the dinner as this blows away anything we have found in Chinese Buffets in the greater metropolitan Detroit area even better than Rice'N'Shine in Monroe Michigan.
