I have been here since 2004 when I had worked at Irving fitness back then. The food is still delicious!

I've been coming to this place for over 15 years. It's the best buffet in the DFW area here period! I've only seen one roach and that was in the early 2000s. But they have upgraded The joint quite a bit so I'm willing to forget I even saw the roach. The restrooms have always been a bit on the dirty side but like I said they've upgraded and I dig the bamboo stalls. I love the Mongolian grill. They let you mix the sauces and vegetables and meat unlike other places that are so strict with the grill rules. You don't have to take a number you just wait for the bell to ding. Please tip your cook they are hard workers. This will always be my go-to place I live in Terrell so I have to drive an hour and it's totally worth it. I love East Buffet and God bless the USA.

Embarrassed to admit, but this is a stop for me up to two times a week. Between the buffett with solid staples during lunch/dinner and the Mongolian Grill and Sushi Bar, there is something here for everyone. My go to is the beef stew and veggies or Mongolian Grill. Behold the beast, try to enjoy the picture without salivating.

I’ve never been big on Chinese buffets but East Buffet was delicious. We went there on Mother’s Day after going to Plymouth Park Baptist with my mom, mother-in-law, and my girls. I was super impressed!

The food was fresh,hot, and delicious. The service was wonderful. So much help for two Geriatric customers. She carried our plates back from the buffet and pulled our chairs out for us. I will definitely go back.

The food was hot, it was edible, and the service was great. What made this place special was the cheese puffs, hot cheetos and doritos which had their own space. This was a snackers paradise. Definitely a first for my eyes.

It's been years since we dined in any buffets, but this one was so close to an airport, and we decided to give a try. I was amazed by selection of food and especially how well everything tasted! The food kept very organized and clean, very presentable. The service was great also! Definitely a 5 star place!
