Queens Buffet & Cajun Seafood — Restaurant in New York

The rating I gave is for "overall value". I needed an affordable eatery with decent food, that could quickly accommodate a large crowd of 17 people (with our 6 cars) on a weekend. I found it here. My crew and I arrived at 12:50PM during peak lunch hour. No problems finding close proximity parking for everyone. Also parking was free. We paid at the door to get in. Cost was $16.95 per person, for the standard "all-you-can-eat" that included soft drinks. You can also get crab legs for an extra fee. The inside decor was nicer than the building's exterior. There were plenty of booth seating as well as a party seating area large enough to accomodate 40+ people. The buffet dishes ranged from multiple appetizers, salads, main course through to dessert. There were vegetable, beef and chicken dishes as well as seafood dishes containing shrimp, mussels, crawfish and clams. The food was decent. Some dishes are better than others. So I'd advise taking a spoonful the dish you want to try it to make sure its to your liking before loading up. I personally loved the hot wings. The sweet and sour chicken was also exceptional. Service was very good. Drinks were served to us and promptly refilled when empty. Empty dishes were quickly cleared from the table. We stayed and ate as long as each of us could handle. We hung out a little after we all finished and no one pressured us to leave (of course we gave them a good tip). Afterwards all 17 of us had similar opinions. "A decent place to eat offering convenience and exceptional value". We'll all be...

If you can, try to avoid this place at all cost I took my wife and 3 kids here for dinner the food was below average and the service was an absolute disappointment I figured I did take my wife and kids out for family dinner night on Friday and that all would go well my kids and I are eating snow crab legs and had two crab leg crackers at the table one of the waitresses walked up to the table and proceeded to grab one of the crab leg crackers off of the table telling me that only one was allowed per table I immediately told her not to touch the crab leg cracker because multiple people at my table were eating crab legs when it came to dessert time I asked if they were any more toppings for the ice cream other than rainbow and chocolate sprinkles I was ignored as she was pointing to another waitress I the other waitress but she told me there are no other toppings and proceeded playing on her phone disestablishment lacks respect for their patrons and not to mention that I believe they are overpriced for 3 adults 1 child and a baby I spent $75 and please don't count on having any other flavors then vanilla because the chocolate here is broken and apparently has been broken for some time now as per other patrons if you have a baby like I do you probably don't want to come here because there are no changing stations in the men or women's bathrooms if you still decide to go there after this review good luck and May the force...

Do not come here. The bad reviews aren’t kidding. I’ve left a more detailed review for those who wish to read it. I didn’t look at the reviews before I went with my family otherwise I would have gone elsewhere.

Overall the experience was not good at all and a fast food restaurant may have been a better experience.

The food was not hot, not even warm.

We were charged for giving some food to a 2 year old from our plate. My sister gave him a french fry and my mother gave him some bread and rice from their own plates, other than that he wasn’t interested in any food and we knew this so we didn’t serve him. The manager was insistent that the child ate so he should be charged as though we served him a plate. He agreed to discount part of the price but wouldn’t remove the charge for a child who barely eats. We blew that off since arguing seemed pointless.

The waitress never came to our table to offer more water nor did she come to remove plates or garbage, only to bring the bill when she felt we were done. None of the common courtesies you would expect like a thank you or please. We didn’t feel serviced at all so we didn’t tip and she became upset stopping us from leaving exclaiming there was no tip for her. My sister felt pressured to tip.

I would never visit this establishment again and I wouldn’t recommend...
