El Palacio

"Horrible owner. They were so rude and mean. We came late once. Called them before arrival. They allowed us to have 40 minutes to eat but then the owner’s father came and kicked us out within 30 mins, We had to eat super fast and couldn’t finish. He doesn’t allow us to finish just a bite of icecream, saying you are out, out now ! The second time we got here again, this guy came again with a super mean attitude saying “hey you watch what you eat and better eat fast and finish all your food or I will charge you” shockingly! What the hell?"

"I was impressed. Definitely one step up from Golden Corral which would be the only competition in the mass buffet sector. Some dishes better than others. The service, however, definitely something to write home about. Very attentive for sure. I think, the food should be better presented. The flavors needed individuality. Maybe instead of offering so many different dishes, a theme or perhaps different countries specialties should be highlighted. This is one case where less is more. Some dishes, like the liver were awful, but it was presented with goat, pigs ears and chicken. Maybe a soirée of coordinating palettes and textures would help frame the presentation. Then you had items that just didn’t look right. Like the baby clams in a dark sauce, had no clue as to what that was. The empanadas looked soggy and the watermelon was pale. The rest of the fruits looked like they came from a can. Overwhelming selection of dishes. Could not taste them all. But was surprised to see Ceviche and even more surprised to see, it didn’t have cilantro at all. They should serve specialty dishes. Dishes that you can’t find anywhere else instead of a cafeteria style buffet. Disappointed they didn’t have flan, pasteles and seafood soup."

"My friend, kids, and I really enjoyed the lunch buffet here. We have been here twice. First time the food was very good, hot, meats were tender. Second time I came back, food were kinda dry, the meats didn't taste fresh and rather dry, fried food were kinda old and sitting in the tray too long. So it's a hit or miss experience for us. Highlights: 1. Daughter loves the orange colored noodles. It made me curious and so I had to give it a try. The noodle is on the sweet side of the scale. 2. Mussels are a must try 3. My addiction is the corn nuggets with cheese and I never like cheese, but this cheese was soft and kinda lightly sweeten. Was was good the first time I came. The second time they were room temperature and dry. 4. If you like braised pork, that’s a must try here, soft and tender and flavorful! Unfortunately, it wasn't like that during our second visit back. 5. If you like goat meat, their braised goat meat is so tender and flavorful 6. Friendly customer service 7. Lunch buffet was only $13.99 Con: 1. Baked fish was a bit dry. 2. The sweet rice pudding was still a bit too firm compared to other Latin restaurants I have tasted at. Cooking the rice longer might help. I hope to bring my husband here next time when we are in the area. I know he will like it. We will definitely return. I didn’t have a chance to try everything yet."

"Authentic Latin food along with a few Chinese and American o dishes. All-you-can-eat including drinks for twenty bucks a piece. They also offer beer and wine. Salad bars and dessert bar including ice cream and sherbert. Everything was cooked well a couple items were cold on the bar. Plenty of different soups rice dishes seafood. Great per Latin people or people that are adventurous and trying different cultures foods. The only single drawback a hair in a two dishes we had.the place was packed"
