Royal Buffet - Cranston

This is a decent sized buffet with your normal variety of foods. The other customers here seemed rude and self-serving during my visit. The staff was kind and courteous.

The service is always great. The food is middle of the lane standard fare Chinese food. Nothing spectacular to write home about, but not bad at all. If you have time, it 's worth the drive about 5 minutes down the road to Hong Kong Buffet on Cranston St. Dinner usually includes all you can eat Prime Rib and Filet Mignon, cut to order. Sorry Royal, but the truth is the truth.

Buffet was always stocked and fresh. My Asian mom approved. Lots of shrimp and other seafood. Lots of people on a Saturday 2-5pm is a good sign.

You get what you pay for. Cheap Chinese Buffett with low quality food. Most of the food is left out for long periods of time. Even the habatchi is bad, and the meat is rancid. I guess if you catch this place when they bring the food fresh you might enjoy it. As for the staff, they are not concerned with their guests. Waited 10 min to get attended. Had to go to the employee area to get my own silverware. Dont expect too much. As well they do not have snowcrab legs and haven't for almost a year l. Yet they advertise that they do.

Food was okay. My favorite thing was the ice cream. Pricing was normal. Good place to grab a quick family meal.
