This place always has hot food that's ready for my tummy! They have American food, Japanese food, and Chinese food :-). The staff is always nice and they are fast to bring you a drink refill when your cup looks slightly low, I love it. You get your fortune cookies at the end and maybe your luck will be as amazing as the food is here!

Food is always plentiful, wide variety, worth the money. Would highly recommended to family and friends.

First time back in a couple of years since Covid. Did not disappoint. Tons of fresh, hot choices. Buffet includes fresh fruit, salads, all the popular Chinese dishes, full sushi bar and a fresh hib…

The seating was spacious and clean, we were taken to our table right away and they spaced us out nicely so as to not be crowded on others. The food was fresh and delicious. Good lunch. Very attentive service.

Large dining area, great service, food is 7/10 fresh and rarely looks like it's been sitting for hours. Very attentive staff who are always coming out and checking the food. Sometimes they switch up some ingredients. For instance I love the baked spinach and cheese dish. More than a few times it seems their spinach was dark and brownish, long and very stringy. Other times it's very green and bright and tastes like it was fresh spinach. I always leave full off one plate and some soup.

2/23/24 . Very busy dinner today. Empire has a very good verity to choose from. They have Hibachi grill also if u want something different. The sushi was fresh and delicious too. The price for the Buffet is 16.99 for dinner.

They had good food and lots of options but we're extremely overpriced. Saturdays are $15 a person plus drinks and tax. It Costed $75 for 4 of us. That's the most I've ever paid and all you can eat buffet. I do love going to this place but only gave four stars because of price but definitely recommended. They are busy every time we go.

It's the best Chinese American buffet I've found in the Syracuse/Utica area. Good variety and always fresh!

There was a lot of food available. The service can be pushy. The ambiance was that of a buffet.

Based on the Buffet scale, pretty solid. Many choices, even for me the vegetarian. Mostly people ate seafood- and no kidding lots of people chowing down and getting take out. \n\nGood service, buff…

Most food was cold , free eggshells with the hard boiled eggs Won't be back. Flaming grill beats this lace Hands down Watered down dressings and gravy.

Food was not to my liking, or my 9 year old's. Everything I tried just didn't taste good or the texture was off besides the Chinese donuts, probably the best item on the buffet. Staff was friendly however, and the tables and seats were clean. Food areas as well. Didn't use the restroom to rate cleanliness of that. If I had to choose any buffet in Syracuse, it would be Golden Corral. The last time I went to Flaming Grill, in late December 2024, it was subpar as far as the food but tasted better than today's Thanksgiving visit to Empire.

To see mice running around the dining area was not a pleasant thing at all. We informed the owner and staff however it did not seem like a bother. This calls for greater action and I caution all fr…

Brought my family here, was charged 90 dollars for 2 kids and 2 adults, was charged for 4 adult drinks when my kids only received 2 kids drinks, the food was moderate, chicken wings were still raw, broccoli and chicken was rubbery, I use to love this place, after lastnight I will not be returning, this buffet has gone downhill to the point where I had to write this horrible review, dont waste your money here, bring your family to chili's for the same price with better food Will never return!!

I went here for my brother in laws birthday because this used to be my go to place but this time the food was just not good at all. The sesame chicken and general Tao chicken was cold and was hard to chew it felt like it was made in the morning and just left out all day at the end of the lunch I received the bill and it came out to 163 dollars I probably won’t be coming back here anytime soon

We stopped by and had dinner for 4 of us. Food was very sloppy and Buffet serving area was a mess. floors around the buffet were very sticky. Bathrooms were a mess.We recieved our bill and paid cash, We waited for about 10 minutes for the watress to bring back our reciept with change and never came back to the table. She basiclly kept our change and would not bring us back a paid reciept. Not very professional.
