I walked in 11:16 am today and nobody was at the counter. So I grabbed a container for a take out and headed to the bar. There was no food set up so I asked the worker where is the food so she ignored me and went back to the kitchen. I didn't have time for this so I left disappointed. I then went to Kim Sum Restaurant up the street on route 38 west in Pennsauken. The host greeted me and had a table for me. Kim Sum Restaurant is delicious and a little expensive. read more

The food is good and the service is good too. The ambiance is good and relaxed. The service is great, they check on you multiple times meaning that they're taking care of you and everything else is great. read more

I have to say that I am impressed. I had stopped coming to Ruby Buffet several years ago when it seemed the food kept getting more and more mediocre. A close friend took me there today and everything was as good as it was (or better) than when we first began coming here. It was great. I am pleased that Ruby Buffet is now my renewed go to spot. The calamari was awesome, by the way. read more

Great variety of food. Everything fresh and hot. The staff was friendly. Capacity was limited. Everything was clean. L

So I have been really trying to support my black owned and neighborhood businesses. I decided to try this place as I thought it was a new place in my area. I was wrong this place is a rebranded buffet spot. While I understand rebranding to try and stay in business I feel slightly deceived. Anyway I ordered a wing platter and Mac and cheese from this place. I went to eat my order and the wings platter wasn't as advertised. The picture and the description show the platter comes with wings and fries. However, My order only had wings. I called and notified the restaurant that my order was incomplete. The person i spoke to first said my order didn't come with fries and then she. told me I didn't select fries when I placed the order. I told her there was no option to select fries . She went on line and tried to place the order herself. She realized then that there is no option listed for fries. She told me initially that's no her fault there should be an option and I needed to contact Door Dash. I asked her what I should do now because my order isn't as advertised. She told me to place another order and she would credit the fries. I told her I would have to pay for another order and that wouldn't benefit me. She didn't seem to have another solution and She later told me she had to call Door Dash. None of which helped me in my current situation. I ended up hanging up with her and getting my money back from Door Dash. read more

I'm giving myself 2 stars for this review and visit to Ruby Buffet... I had no intention to stop in for lunch... But I did, and it turned out that I realized that I wasn't hungry as soon as I was seated... On to the business here... Very nice interior. Hostess was nice enough to initially try to seat me at the front window when the place was close to empty... Come on lady.. why not give me an application to work here if you're gonna expect me to walk to the back of this place every time I get up.. She seated me closer to the middle of the room. I asked for a glass of water, then wandered over to the buffet.... I circled the two buffet islands, the sushi table, and soup and dessert table twice, then thought to myself "wtf am I doing here"... Yeah, there's quite a bit of food here... But nothing really here that was a must have. Not even the sushi table, which I usually like at places like this. Not much really looked appetizing. I wound up having some gyoza, pepper chicken, grilled pork, string beans, and cabbage.. Everything I chose was ok. But somehow, the fact that even my eyes weren't tricked into wanting more of what was available just made it seem like it was a waste of time being there... read more

Before Covid this was my favorite buffet. Really Great... They do a Great job here. Owner is there working everyday, Good Guy read more

Worst service ever !!! The food had a disgusting appearance it look like it was there for hours . Some of the dishes had a bad taste . Cod fish salad was bad already and it was still there to be serve . The waitress ask for (mandatory tips ) even before we could get some food in our mouths. Plates were broken , waiters were trying to get us out as soon as possible even tho they still had a hour and a half to close . It was my first time visiting and I would not come back and will tell other about this bad service read more

Seafood lover's delight. Enjoyed the fresh oysters and clams on a half shell. They also had stone crabs, snow crab legs, mussels, large shrimp on ice, and dozens of entrees. They only put out enough snow crab legs for about three hungry people's platefuls, so it was while before they were replenished. I didn't think to ask as the other reviewer suggested, so I won't discount for that. I also agree, the sushi bar had all the rice cake stuff BUT you also had plenty of tuna, shrimp, salmon, crab claw, and other raw fish sliced nicely with several options for adding to taste (hot horseradish, soy, etc.). THAT I have not seen anywhere else on a "buffet" at this price point. I don't mean to come across as politically incorrect, but the fact is that there were quite a number of Asian patrons having dinner tonight, and that's usually a sign of authenticity and quality. The food was all fresh and tasty. I don't see calamari on very many buffets, nor do I see crispy duck. Definitely one of the best Chinese buffet experiences we have had in recent years. read more

I came here this New Year's Day, and this restaurant is easily the worst buffet/restaurant I have ever been to. The food was greasy and highly unappetizing. The kitchen manager was touching and serving food without gloves or a hairnet while he was rubbing his hands on his clothes. When my brother was trying the food, he had to spit out every bite because he claimed everything was overwhelmingly salty and some of the meats even had an off and almost slightly spoiled taste. As my grandmother was trying to put some food on the plate, the aforementioned unsanitary kitchen manager swiped the tongs from her hand and very rudely began telling my grandma to stop and began banging the tongs over the counter. When my father tried to reconcile and have the kitchen manager apologize, the manager said (I kid you not), "Get the fuck out of my face and the restaurant!" Do not ever come to this restaurant unless you are looking for a genuinely terrible and disgusting meal and horrendous service. I myself have worked in the food service industry all my life, and have never encountered such poor customer service. Most definitely will never return and I would highly recommend that any readers of this review to do the same. read more

For a chinese buffet, this visit was pretty good! I would give 3.5 stars I was here a few years back and hated it. You had to wait forever for the crab legs and they would put like a pound out at a time when they know there's five people waiting and their food was bland. And Even if you stood there in front of the empty pan it always took 15-20min. They must've gotten alot of complaints! Tonight they kept the crabs coming, still only a small pan at a time but consistent. And all their dishes were fresh and well prepared. Sushi wad not fresh Not a bad visit... read more

I Went with my family today on a holiday i felt like they discriminated against me and my family (African-American)when it was time to pay they hovered over us when there was other parties that had large party like mine. the waitress was very rude and mostly concerned about payment me and my family were disgusted with the service the food was not even good they did not do that to anyone else, never again will I ever support this buffet business if I could do no stars I would do not go here. If you are black or brown do not go there. the lady collected the payment at the table and said this was protocol. Few moments later another family got up to pay and they allowed that family to pay at the counter. read more

I was excited to go to a new buffet in awhile. The food had no flavor, the only thing I liked was the brownie looking thing and that also lacked so much flavor. The wasted potential is so sad. The place looked good, the food could have followed the example. read more

I need to start this review by stating that I am not a big fan of buffet restaurants. Ruby Buffet is new and everything is clean and the design is pretty nice. The people that work there are super friendly and polite. The quality of the food was pretty typical for these type of restaurants. There were a lot of fried foods and starches. The food I tried was bland and a bit oily. The $9.95 for lunch on Sunday was reasonable. Kids seem to like these places and for them they are good a choice. There is bound to be something they like and they have soft serve ice cream. For me, I would rather go for the lunch special at a better Chinese restaurant and just stick to one dish and a soup. Ruby Buffet is a decent choice is you are looking for quantity and value in a clean setting.Not so much if your looking for quality and flavor. read more

I like their snow crab boils with Cajun or old bay seasoning. Be careful ordering over the phone if you are not familiar with the menu; they will only offer you the 1 lb when 1/2 boils exist as well, but they won't tell you that, then when you try to change your order to fit your needs merely 2-3 min after placing your initial order, they tell you "it's too late." Lol good boils though. read more

I had a nice, late lunch here this afternoon with me mum. They were understaffed, but Casey came over and provided exemplary customer service. Mom had shrimp 3 ways, with pasta. I took advantage of the salad bar (not bad), and had a baked potato. Mom raved about her meal, mine was as good as can be expected for what it was. The RESTROOM, however, while appearing fairly clean, smelled like my worst of nightmares; DEATH even AND the floor was sticky. I think they might have a plumbing problem because the smell was the same last time. read more

This place is garbage and the food is horrible,just stopping by for a quick lunch,over priced for a food they offer..,it's a ripoff place

Don't go here. Your better off cooking your own Chinese food. The good reviews are lying to you. Save your money and run!

I usually go to this buffet often with my children. Today they asked to go, although I wasn't hungry i decided to take them. When we arrived I told them the children would be the only ones eating. When I came back with a plate for my year 3 year old she didn't want to eat so i tasted her food. When it was time to leave I grabbed my bill and went to pay. That's when i noticed they charged me for eatng off her plate...smfh. I was so upset and I go here often. That was so petty. My family will no longer eat here. $15 cost them a family of 7. Again that was so petty...smh. read more

I don't know why people are expecting like a high end experience for $9-$15 . It's the best lunch buffet in the area, they had alot of seafoods even for lunch! I had mussles/clams/calamari/butterfly shrimp. Taste was fine because there's alot of people so fresh food came out often. As for dinner, no there's almost never any snow crab legs for dinner, just don't expect any and you'll be fine. Even if there is, there'll always be two morbidly obese people sitting 5 steps from the snow crab legs tray, devouring any that comes out of the kitchen, and leaving none for the rest of us anyways. Pretend the crab legs are not even on the menu. Honestly, even at higher price buffets ($30-$40 per person kind of buffet) they'll have a guy handing out crab legs in a limited number, why would you expect unlimited crab legs at $15 a person? And fresh sushi? Those waitresses look overworked and underpaid already...i'm just happy they'll take my plate away and bring me my water. Long story short, insane lunch value if you stick to the hot foods. a chipotle bowl with chips and a drink costs more than this lunch buffet. read more

Worst chinese buffet ever. Food was terrible and service was even worse. Unpleasant experience on New Years day. read more

There used to be alot of good Asian Buffet places in the Marlton/Cherry hill area(s) of South Jersey. All of them have closed in recent Years, except for this one. Typical bulk-processed buffet food (battered, greasy, steamed etc) Nothing to write home about or merit a 2nd visit. If you use a coupon they make you purchase a soda which adds another $3 per person to the tab. (a similar trick used by CiCi's Pizza) Fried rice and grilled chicken were ok. Vegetables were limp. Much smaller buffet selections to choose from. Summary: This place is run "on the cheap" so expect such. Call up your local reliable Asian take Out place instead if you want better. You will also pay less. read more

My dad loves this place. If you enjoy quantity of food with decent taste, as well as a nice variety of different tastes to tingle the palate, this is the place for you! I would recommend not casting too wide a net if you are coming to enjoy your meal, as there are truly a lot of selections to choose from, and you'll get stuffed quickly. Try a handful of different things, then come back next time to try more, as the pricing here for the value they give is VERY economic! My only complaint is that staff could keep the food serving area a bit neater by cleaning after customers (i.e., dropped food along the sides of the serving areas). Important thing to note: you can show the online coupon for a discount! read more

Very rude Food ok you ask anything to sushi shef he stairs at you you and says no same with the one who cooks steaks and other items they never smile To get crab legs they bring out 10/ 20 legs at a time and you wait forever for them You ask when are they bring out more they just walk away WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!! there are better places to eat read more

I found multriple strands of hair in my food and one of the servers sneezed over the food while putting it out

Came in for lunch. The hostess is pretty rude. She was on the phone when we paid the bill, a personal call and didn't say a word to us. Just took the money gave me change. Literally not one word. The food was ok. Nothing special and not a large selection. Our waitress was nice and very attentive with refilling waters and clearing plates. Total bill was $20 for two adults, we would come back. read more

The food was cold and bland, however it was well stocked and the desserts weren't too bad. I'll probably never dine here again.

I love this buffet. Best one in my area. Food is fresh and good. One of the only buffets that still have crab legs. Lately though the bathrooms have been awful. I understand that it's the public doing this but if they checked them more often they could keep them clean. Paper towels on the floors. Toilet paper on the floor. Woman's room door won't close Men's room has same issue with trash on the floors. Stall doors won't close. Sinks don't drain properly. When my husband and I see this it makes us wonder what the kitchen looks like. We are hoping they get this cleaned up or we may have to find a new place to eat. Went back only this time we watched the woman filling the food pick food up from the counter and put it back in the tray. This food was dropped on the floor and a kid picked it up and put it on the counter. Don't think we will return this time. read more

3.5 stars Why does having a 3 star rating seem so low?!?! But a 4 seem so high? I'll hook them up with a 4 star rounding up!! I've been here twice (not my choice, but my family loves buffets for some reason). I'm actually afraid of eating at these types of buffets. The only buffets i've felt comfortable eating at are Vegas ones. My first time was a weekday. The place wasn't too busy and the food was all pretty full, hot, and not too salty (as most are). The place was fairly clean, the interior was decent. Service was sufficient, but i'm not sure why other reviewers would complain? Are you expecting to be waited on?? The second time was a Sunday. Man, the place was crazy packed! All types of hungry ass people in here, including me and my family. The food, for the most part, was all pretty decent/average. I'm on a low carb diet so i just ate mostly meat. Yes, this isn't the best of the best, but it's a dinner buffet (cheap one too), so i base my experience on what the establishment is, not what i want/wish it to be. Gotta go in these places with realistic expectations! I tend to go for things that just get replenished and not been sitting too long. Their crab legs were actually pretty good quality and not even salty. I know some places salt it so they don't overeat it! Lots of people were lining up for that. So be patient. Overall, i thought the hot food, fruits, and seafood were all pretty decent. I don't go often, so i thought it was $19 for dinner, but it was actually $12 i think..definitely got my money's worth i guess? Finished with some softserve ice cream and called it a night. The drive home i was hoping not to have an upset stomach later in the night but that didn't happen. So i call it a win win! PS.. i know it's an AYCE, but i hate wasting food...hence, i only take just enough to either taste or finish. I seen other tables finish and leave PLATES OF SHRIMP and CHICKEN. Maybe because i'm Asian and was taught not to waste food (or eat everything), but what the heck...if you knew you couldn't eat more than 8 shrimp...why get a whole plate? Its AYCE...not like they give you a time limit. read more

Just had dinner here on Sunday nite. The place was pretty crowded but got seated right away. Huge selection of different types of food , seafood, Chinese, Japanese, American cuisine. I had huge salad they have big salad bar, lots of different seafood . I really enjoyed the desserts, had soft serve ice cream and they had large selection of pastries, cakes, fruit and jello. If u like buffet style it's nice clean and waitress was nice. Bit pricy wish had better selection of Chinese food . Cost was $40 for 2. But I have had better. read more

Ruby's Buffet - Just to give u an idea of the salad bar. - Buffets Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

Very dishonest management!!! If there is zero I would give it!!! Lie about deposit money back!! Don't give any deposit if booking for party, cause you won't get it back and they will force you to come back and use the deposit money. Which it will be waste it away due to poor management!!!y As for the food, not a lot of choices. The food is salty and not fresh at all. I got sick after I eating there!!!! Never go back again. Worst Chinese buffet evert!!! read more

We drove about 30 minutes to get here. The place was clean and not too noisy. Although there aren't many food selections, what we had was pretty good. We've been to other buffets but I think this one is our new favorite. read more

Horrible Mother's Day weekend outing...First of all, I didn't have a babysitter for my son so I had to bring him with my family and I. The woman greeted us irritably and placed us in a section where we could be monitored closely. She and, what appeared to be, the rest of the staff literally sat four tables from us and watched my family eat the whole time. I informed my family as I was too uncomfortable to eat. We asked for take home platters, but were told, they couldn't do that when we were even willing to pay. They kept trying to rush us and proceeded to sweep and clean near our space. When my father received the bill, my 12 year old son was charged full price when he only got to eat half a plate before they started packing everything up preparing to close. I did not enjoy any of the items that were still available and neither did my mother. They wouldn't dare make any adjustments for the mishaps and my father actually gave a tip (I'm guessing due to the smiles as they gave poor customer service and said, "Happy Mother's Day.") My son had the runs later that night...All I can say is beware and NEVER again! read more

My mother chose this place for her birthday dinner last night. I have been to quite a few buffets in my lifetime, and this one is as bad as it gets. I guess I will start with the positive points, the wait staff was very nice and friendly. That is about as far as it goes. The buffet itself was low grade. I love general tso's chicken but the sauce was watery and bland. The selection was far and few between. I love sushi, but the sushi bar looked nasty, most of it looked squished and topped with way too much caviar. There was a lot of seafood which was stewing in water and just didn't look appetizing. Basically I paid $13 for a plate of mediocre Chinese food. There was a small selection for dessert of which none really appealed to me. Now for the icing on the cake...my mother's best friend had just gotten a plate of dessert with some fruit, she sat down and then said to me, are you seeing what I'm seeing? I looked down and on the lip of her plate was a small squished COCKROACH!!!!!!! I wanted to throw up at that moment. She then went and got the restaurant manager who's response was "I don't know where it came from." My guess is that it came from the kitchen...duh. She then proceeded to tell us that she would take off $10 of our $132 check. At that point we were pretty shocked at how disgusting the kitchen must be and at the complete lack of customer service. If I ran a restaurant, and someone found a COCKROACH in their food, I would be horrified, apologetic, and comp their meals. So when we insisted that we were not going to pay, the manager proceeded to call the police and basically the police came and said that we had to pay or it would be theft and to file a complaint to the better business bureau, which I will be. I have never in my life found a COCKROACH in a restaurant or have been treated so poorly by the MANAGEMENT. It was a disgrace and I recommend taking your money else where. What a shame. read more

Place was interesting, service was good for a buffet. Food was eh, like basic foods, like pizza or chinese food style were way over cooked. Meats were rare or even burnt. They had a special which was a duck, tender and tasty. Only thing I liked in that place. Sushi was depressing a lot of sause, less meat, more rice. Ginger was the standard fake pink pickled kind and tasted pure salt water with suger added. I give it 2 stars just for service and that duck. read more

Ruby's Buffet - Kinda depressing you can save money by adding more rice than less. - Buffets Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

I have been coming to this about once a week. Sushi has been declining and that's the reason why I'm making the review. Today's sushi was old and stale. To the point that it tasted horrible and was rough to chew. I told this to the front counter that I lost my appetite and walked out. Then I came back in asking if I should pay. The lady told me no, then I said sorry but the sushi was horrible. She stated that it was fresh, I said no it wasn't and I'm a regular she didn't want to hear it and was extremely rude. I will not be eating here again. You lost a regular!!!! read more

Another buffet, another diarrhea session. I think you can see from all of my other reviews in regards to buffets there's a pattern of some sort right? I go to buffets out of familial obligation or because maybe for some crazy reason I wanted to get diarrhea that night. Most likely it's the former. You got your usual over greased, super salty, chewy meat, etc selections that you get at every single buffets in this rung. Service is whatever. Parking: Plenty Price: $15 per person + drinks Wait: None read more

Family group of 12 visiting late afternoon. Not all of us arrived together. Service was poor, the table was not keep clean, drink refills and napkins were an issue. The restaurant was not busy so there was no reason for the poor service. The selection was not as good as other buffets. They use to have better selection and higher end items. The crab legs were added to the buffet a small amount at a time resulting with not getting any or standing around waiting for replenishment. They did not have any flavor. In the future we will go elsewhere. read more

Pretty good food. Clean place. Nice service. No complaints really. I just hateeeeeee that people really line up for crab legs and when they come out theres always that one weirdo that takes most of them even with more people waiting. Gotta find a away to deal with that. Like limit them or something bro these folks are savages read more

If I could give the restaurant zero stars, I would. Not so much for the food, this review is strictly for the way they run their business. My family was looking for a place to host a dinner for a special event. We went to the restaurant and spoke to Renee about making the reservation. When we were booking, she said a deposit was not necessary, but we put a deposit down so they feel better about our reservation. We were told that if we need to cancel the reservation, deposit would be refunded. A week later, we did decide to cancel the reservation. When we return with the original receipt for the deposit back, the girl standing at the front who claimed she is the "manager" said she can only refund the deposit in the form of a gift certificate, which was not mentioned at all during the reservation. When I refused the gift certificate and requested for the original form of payment back, she said it was "store policy" to refund in gift certificate, which was again was definitely NOT what thy said originally. When I asked for the owner of the restaurant, he was conveniently not available. The "store policy" was not stated anywhere in the restaurant, on the receipt, or anywhere on their brochure. They seemed very accommodating when you first make a reservation, but as soon as they have your money, they will make up any lies on the spot to keep your money. This is not a place I would ever give my business to. Again, I don't know how the food is, and even if it is good, I wouldn't recommend this place at all to anyone. read more
