Reviews for El Palacio Buffet in Orlando, FL

For $16.99 per person you could definitely find better food elsewhere. The building is old and tired and could use a fresh coat... of paint and some major cleaning. Even though our "server" spoke very limited English she was super friendly and kept our drinksfull and table cleaned between plates so no complaints about service. I will say the selection of food was plentiful...thequality and temperature could use some help. It would also be nice if they kept up on the labels for the food....75% of it wasunidentifiable and I hate wasting food just because it wasn't labeled as something I know I wouldn't like. We may come backsometime when it's slower than a Saturday evening. Read more

Not what I expected? food looked appetizing but the taste I must say was very disappointing. To begin, the fried rice didn?t... taste like fried rice, it tasted like rice that came out of a box. The sushi and spring roll was a 0 out of 5 stars. The onlything that I semi liked was the crawfish, the clams being a little heavy on the salt, and the coconut shrimp. The rest was notfor me. Very poor quality food that is bland and salty. On the other hand, the staff was very friendly and the hibachi is up andrunning if you like hibachi style food. Read more

I went to this place because my husband and I had just came into Florida, it was late, we had all of our kids plus my brother... and I didn?t feel like cooking, so we wanted to try a buffet. Location: Easy to arrive, pretty visible from main road. Veryspacious once your inside. They sat us in the back where I noticed most of the kids were sitting. Parking: Clean, nicely lit,and spacious. Prices: Weekdays is cheaper per person, on the other hand, is a bit more expensive on the weekends. Each priceincludes the beverage and black coffee, if you want milk they charge a bit extra. Food: Massive selections for all tastes, fromkids to adults, from rice to soup, to sea food to Chinese food, different types of meat, turnovers, ice cream, fresh fruit,salad bar, and other desserts. For me, it was more Puerto Rican cuisine than anything, which was RIGHT UP MY ALLEY so I had NOCOMPLAINTS.. it was great. Where else can you get a bowl of Sancocho, lo mein, pernil, sushi, hibachi, rice and beans, chickenand broccoli, and everything in between. I was amazed at the taste of the food. DELICIOUS!!! Alcohol: They have a full bar whenyou first walk in, I paid for a shot of Hennessy. They also have drinks right there that you can buy to go. Showed my ID and gotmy shot immediately and went on about my business. Cleanliness in general: Not the best. The waitresses try to keep it clean, Idid notice that. Ambience: Very family friendly. Each time I went there was a crowd, but the line moved reallyfast. Employees: Attentive, polite, humble, friendly ... easy to identify them, including the manager. I encourage you to giveit a try! You?d be surprised. Be cool ???? Read more

What a unique place. Chinese and Latin food in a all you can eat buffet. Dinner came out to be around $15. I tasted as many... things as possible plating just a bite of each item on the Buffet that look good to me. There were hit and misses. I havenever been to a Latin food buffet, and there were some tasty Latin items. I would say it?s an average buffet restaurant. Ilike the shrimp, chicharrones, and rice pudding and coconut deserts. I am not sure if I?ll revisit this place, but I wasimpressed with the number of items they had, including a ceviche bar,which was soso. Read more

Incredible taste of food, largest variety, friendly staff, mainly come for the steak in the hibachi. The prices are not... consistent they change price like 4 times in less than two years but definitely better than any Chinese buffet in Orlando. Read more
