EDIT: New name and new review under Hibachi Grill and Buffet.
I absolutely loved Grand Buffet back when I lived in Edison. My family ate here the night we moved to Edison, actually.
I may be a bit biased because, over 7 years of regularly eating here, we got to know the restaurant staffers, but I always love the food. It's not gourmet and sometimes it's been out for a bit, but I'm a little bit surprised by how negative the reviews are. It's typical Chinese buffet fare and they've expanded a lot since my first visit here in 1999. The sushi bar is great; when we were quite familiar with the new sushi bar staff, they gave us a sashimi boat. (The few pieces I had were quite good, but I'm not much of a sushi connoisseur.)
I always get the same thing when I'm there: start off with some garlic bread and egg drop soup (surprisingly good when dipped!) and then I go on to just eat way too much. Like I said, standard Chinese buffet fare plus dim sum foods. Also they have a lot of great little cakes and cookies at the dessert bar.
And just for fun, if you tell the staff that you're celebrating a birthday, they'll play happy birthday throughout the restaurant. It can be a bit uncomfortable to be the birthday girl/boy and have "Happy Birthday" in English and Chinese sung by children blared throughout the restaurant.
I didn't see our usual familiar faces on my last visit, so I don't know if they changed management and if that will affect the quality of the restaurant, but I love it here.
It is, as of now, my favorite Chinese buffet.
Disgusting! Super greasy, old food that's been sitting out too long. Many of the selection was not replenished so hardly any items.
The bathroom was so dirty, no soap, no paper towels, freezing cold water. I even was in there with a employee and asked about soap and towels. She pretended to make an effort to look around for some, then shrugged.
The only thing edible was the french fries at this Chinese buffet. Ha!
*EDIT* 9/27/12 – I was by there earlier in the week and it looked closed. No lights, no outside lights either.
I gave this place 3 tries before never returning. I shouldn't have returned after the 2nd, but my sister insisted (tired, cranky, hungry…!) Still as horrible as the first time. It seems like the life was sucked out of the life of the waitstaff. Zombies? I felt bad for them….but we tried to be friendly and say thank you when they took away our plates and refilled our drinks. We got a smile out of one of them. The food is just not good. There are people in there, but everything was old, not hot…not even warm. Everything was wilted and full of oil and the sushi was disgusting. The only thing you'll get out of eating here is a stomach ache.
