Empire Buffet - Putnam

This is our go to place for Chinese buffet. Sometimes they have a 10% off coupon in turnpike buyer or you can get frequent buyer cards that earn you free meal after 10 purchased. Dinner includes crab legs.

I've been eating here for years. The fact is, there's really no good Chinese food anymore. It's all either okay, or bad. With Empire Buffet, for years now it's been consistently okay, never bad. That's a good thing, because if you want okay Chinese food (which is the best you'll get around here), then you can count on this place. The food itself isn't the whole story though. It's the people. Honestly, they're always so kind, so accommodating. When I'm there, they ALWAYS ask if I want more of this or that anything they're low on. It's good that they don't just have piles of food in the buffet they keep the pans less full, so it stays fresher, and they'll happily cook you up a fresh batch. They always greet me kindly, are kind to my children, and the service is quick. It's not the most charming place to dine in, so we always take our food to go. If you want some of the better Chinese food around, this place checks the box, and I'd say you should give them a try.

I've had some bad Chinese buffets in my life of traveling for work, but if one I can say this one tops them all.

Awesome food. Awesome staff. I definitely recommend

Very friendly staff came in late and they made me and my girlfriend fresh food and brought it right to our table cause there was not much
