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.

Everything was fresh and constantly refilled. The hibachi grill was delicious, and the sushi was surprisingly good for a buffet.

Great value for the price--I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

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!

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.

3/5 total - and they all go to the chefs. Service needs work…read more Sunday lunch here was a great choice though - no big crowds, immediate seating and quick food service. I chose to be seated at the sushi bar as I was dining alone, unfortunately, it was quite a wait for the server to come to me and grab an order. I was greeted with a water and a complimentary edamame appetizer, that was a nice touch and they were delicious. I was planning on ordering the "lunch special" and my fault, but I didn't notice it said M-F only. Immediately my server, Fifi, quickly pointed that out rather rudely and stood beside me tapping her pen while I browsed the menu instead of coming back to give me time to browse - it was odd and uncomfortable but I chose two sushi rolls and a glass of wine. My sushi came out before my drink, so I waited for my wine while I indulged in the most delicious sushi rolls, freshly made and the salmon and shrimp were very fresh. I ordered a Salmon Roll + Boston Roll. When my server came back I asked for a side of miso sauce. She frowned, looked puzzled, said no, and walked away. A few moments later I caught her attention and daid, it's on the menu, may I please get a side of it. Again she told me no, stating they don't have it, she brought me a menu and I pointed it out. A few minutes later the chefs at the sushi bar are talking to her and finally, I got a side of miso sauce, for a $2 up-charge (which I was expecting, and agreed to). Overall, the service was mediocre and it didn't feel friendly at all. She did check on me a couple of times but by no means was it exceptional or welcoming. At the end I received my tab to notice an automatic 18% gratuity/service fee added. I understand the service fee's, but the gratuity being included really is a bummer. Overall, the stars are for the chefs - the food and sauces was great, but the service needs some work and menu training to be more knowledgeable about what's offered

I highly recommend this restaurant, but their sign outside is missing which might make it hard to find.
