Flaming Grill & Buffet

You cant beat this place. Great Price, large selection of food and most important the quality if food which is A++. Highly recommend. The only recommendation is do not come here on weekends because the line is almost out the door and extremely crowded. Best time is weekdays between 3 and 5.

So first let me say if i could give a half or no stars i would. I’m pretty easy to please but one thing i don’t have patience for is rudeness and not one person who speaks english. You cannot run a business without having at least one person who can conduct a conversation. I have a tree nut allergy and i asked 3 people and finally she called the manager who spoke english. Like thats ridiculous, allergies are serious and cannot be taken lightly. They should have signs that include allergens. My second issue is the hibachi guy was very rude. I asked nicely for teriyaki & garlic and before i finished saying teriyaki, he cut me off and say yeah yeah yeah. Well if Juan would of listened he would of heard me ask for garlic. So i will never be returning to this hibachi restaurant.

First time going and was happy to find that they had crawfish. I always wanted crawfish and I was glad to actually try it for the first. My second helping was just a plate of it. It was great. The only downside was that the selection of desserts wasn’t a lot. Overall I enjoyed it and will be returning one of these days.

The attitude of the staff in the beginning was a little off. But the waitress was cool. The food was very good. The Fresh fruits could have been fresher. Great hot food though.
I will be back again for more.
I hope to see you here

Location and crowd wise, the Linden branch is better compared to the East Rutherford one. Unlike this place, the latter is ridiculously crowded no matter what time of day you go. There is plenty of parking here, also. Lunch is $ 7.99 and dinner is $ 11.99 (3:30pm to 10:30pm) per person. There is plenty of seating – side booth and tables.
Selection wise, the usual items are all here and seem pretty orderly. Trays are being swapped in constantly, so that’s always a positive. I stopped by around 11:30am, so all of the food was fresh. In particular, the sushi was good; the grains of rice were whole and not mushy. The seafood dishes were freshly baked, while the fried goodies (rangoon, scallops, fish, egg rolls, etc.) were still crispy/​crunchy. I can’t comment on the rice or lo mein since I focus more on vegetables, meat and seafood, but it looked freshly cooked. The hibachi station is very popular, based on reviews and what I saw during lunch.
Compared to other buffets I’ve been to, this is one of the better ones. The staff here are friendly (and they actually smile). If you’re not a picky eater who is looking for a quick bite or a filling lunch/​dinner, give this place a shot. If you’re the type who is much more conscious about grease and/​or food saturated with salt, you might as well find another place to eat.

Really good everything actually. No complaints whatsoever. Good food, fresh because the workers were constantly coming out with fresh pans, and just a good meal altogether.

The food was great and for a $ 16 buffet, it was a steal. Such a large variation of food that I didn’t know which to eat first. All in all, great establishment and I would definitely eat there again soon.

Comfortable price. The choice of food is definitely outstanding, but I felt if your the person concerned about the ingredients your food contains. Keep it mind I felt the food has a high contain of MSG.
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer commonly added to Chinese food, canned vegetables, soups and processed meats. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified MSG as a food ingredient that’s «generally recognized as safe,» but its use remains controversial.

Always crowded, but the line to get in moves quickly. Food is pretty good for a buffet, they have a hibachi area in the back, you pick what you want and they cook it right in front of you. Sundays $ 12. 99 for adults kids 6 and under $ 4.95 kids 7 –10 $ 6.50. Can’t beat it. Get there early.

Better than your average Chinese buffet.
There’s a wide variety of food and the place looks relatively new and modern.
Personally speaking, the waitresses are very friendly and kind.
People treat you the way you treat them.

Okay buffet — the Hibachi section was really good, the regular hit food was below average and they did not even have dumplings. The salad
and Fresh fruit were very good. The sushi was average for this type of buffet. The price and service were good.

Other Unilocalers will probably raise their eyebrows at me at my stellar rating/​review, but I feel like probably that is because my expectations and style are different than other diners here. This is a typical American Chinese-​Japanese buffet place. It’s one of the better ones I’d had.
They work a little different than other restaurants so let’s start with the basics. Upon entering Flaming Grill you tell the cashier the size of your party and whether you would like any drinks with your buffet. The drinks are extra, and you pay upfront before being taken to your table. After which you could get your food from their spread, all you can eat.
There’s a tepanyaki station, sushi station, phở station, roast meat, Chinese food options, American food option, dessert, salad, fruits and ice cream. I’m not so much a fan for the desserts or American Chinese food. I do like their fried wings, however. And their fresh fruits make good desserts after a filling meal. When I go to these buffets I don’t have the intention of stuffing myself. I usually have a small serving from the tepanyaki station. I like making up my own stir fry noodles with egg + meat + bean sprouts and then seeing it made right in front of me. Next I’ll go for a couple sushi and those wings and that’s about it. So for the food I take at buffets I would consider this a good one.
Plus lunch pricing is cheap, dinner is also reasonable. So this is a convenient place and a short drive from work to come grab a bite before getting on the with work for the rest of the day.

This place was okay. I found a lot of the food bland. But the worst part was that after leaving this place my boyfriend got so sick he was vomitting the whole night. The only difference between what we ate was that I don’t eat seafood and he had seafood. He was fine all day but about two hours after we left he was sick and his stomach was in so much pain. Idk if this was food poisoning but it seemed a little too convenient. Also I had found this weird string in my food at one point. Won’t be going back.

The food/​management was excellent, but certain members of the wait staff were rude and obnoxious.
My family chose this location for a birthday celebration for our grandmother (who turned 85, party of 17), and the waiter continually harassed my party for a recipe, although they indicated on more than one occasion that the manager and I were settling the bill.
He caused a scene in the party room, embrassed my entire party, and upset our children.
The manager Roy was extraordinary,(even though he held my Visa Gift card up to the light like it was a fraudulent $ 100 bill), but his conflict resolution skills made up for that.
The waiters name is Victor, and although I hate to mention race, I did witness him service a large Asian party being served in the same room… No double/​triple and quadruple headcounts. The manager and waiter discussed our issue in another language in front of me and my husband, and I had to repeatedly request“English please!“
We sure did not want the same server, and we wind up with his m again anyway.
For $ 230.75 I feel like our night was almost ruined.
BTW. We miscounted a baby (4 yrs) and he accused us of trying to sneak someone in.
Don’t worry we paid. That brought out total to $ 238.75
Never again, Roy your services could be better utilized somewhere else!

The variety is unparalleled. Sushi selection is great too… not simply crab and tuna. They have hibachi, and best of all, their lunch is $ 7.99.
Quality is above-​average. I have zero complaints.

Flaming Grill & Supreme Buffet.
Flaming Buffet is a massive place. It’s very casual in décor. They have an extensive amount of seating that can accommodate large to small party’s and a banquet room for hosting buffet style events. They are also child friendly.
I went to the Flaming Buffet and Grill on a Friday night as a last minute decision. I was a bit hesitant, because I’m not the biggest fan of buffet style food. Usually it’s the quality of food I’m never pleased with and the question of how sanitary the exposed food is that everyone is picking their serving from. Though the food there was exposed like all buffets I observed that the staff did a good job of keeping everything sanitary so I was relieved. The quality of food did not look bad and for the price of $ 12 bucks plus tax, I said why not.
Flaming has eight buffet stations. Six of those stations are self serve with choices ranging from different types of seafood, vegetables, whole glazed ham, fried chicken, bbq style, pizza, a large selection of Chinese food, soups and a salad bar. The dessert station consisted of tons of desserts such as fruit, cookies, puddings and cakes. An ice cream case was also near by filled with good humor brand ice cream. Soda or water is unlimited. They do not offer any alcoholic beverages.
Flaming also has two stations with a chef serving. One is hibachi with options of vegetarian, seafood, steak, and chicken. The other is a sushi station with a variety of choices and hearty sized pieces.
I sampled a little bit of everything. The quality and seasonings of the buffet food was good and I was not disappointed, but I found that some of the food was at room temperature or almost cold that should have been hot. The sushi was fresh and the meat/​chicken and rice/​Lo Mein at the hibachi station was good as well. For a buffet, Flaming is not a bad choice. I have been to and seen a lot worse. I would come back if the opportunity came about.

I dont eat seafood from anywhere, especially from places this inexpensive, so I cant really comment on that!
Its typical buffet food with more options than most buffets. Youll see better dishes at dinner of course! My fav was the hibachi beef, never had that! It was freah, they were consistently changing the food, so it doesn’t sit which was great!
If you dont want the typical chinese buffet food, just go to the Hibachi to create your dish!

It was pretty bad! Food was greasy and did not taste fresh. I absolutely hate the ice cream bar. Used to soft serve at buffets but they had warm ice cream sandwiches and old Italian icey cups (the freezer wasn’t cold). The service was absolutely terrible; I felt rushed. I will not be back!

Came here so many times. I already lost count. The price are very good for this much food. Love the sushi, it is great. My favor food are the muscle, prime ribs, bbq chicken and treasure shrimp. But the best one that I love the most are the hibachi. You can put whatever you like on the plate and then the chef will cook in front of you. It is very fresh steak, eggs, shrimp, chicken, beef, veggie…
The best place in town. Very busy place, i guess every body like to go. Clean, food is fresh, service are very nice. Highly recommended!!!

It’s a cheap buffet and you get what you pay for. The oysters tasted like they were fished out of a polluted body of water. All the fried foods were stale or soggy. The meats were over tenderized to a spongy texture, most of which is either too salty or not salted at all. The sushi, as another review stated, looks suspect. Everything else is drowning in some type of sauce.
This place was packed but I won’t be returning.
