About Empire Buffet

Located at 570 Clock Tower Way, Fort Mitchell, KY 41017, Empire Buffet operates as a chinese restaurant serving Fort Mitchell in Kentucky. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under buffet restaurant, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Fort Mitchell; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Kentucky are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. Typical hours are 11 amโ€“9:30 pm. It is closed on Tuesday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (859) 341-8009. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

Its Google rating is 3.5 out of 5 from 1,369 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

Fort Mitchell is in Kentucky, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Fort Mitchell follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Me and my boyfriend went and ate dinner here, he told me itโ€™s usually delicious food at dinner time, all the food was out and it was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING FOOD WAS COLD, HARD, you could definetley tell that the food was sitting out for a min. DEFINITELY NOT WORTH $30 when we didnโ€™t even eat one plate with both of ours together. WILL NOT BE BACK.

This used to be a very wonderful place to eat, to enjoy a great buffet, but the food is mislabeled, old and ran out. There was minimal service and the restrooms were hideous. I had my friend go with me to this restaurant because of how wonderful I remembered it, I am sorry I did. Very disappointed.

This was my families favorite place to go. My kids love it. NEVER AGAIN! First, there was a huge hair in the little square cakes. I quietly told the server and showed her so nobody else would notice it. I sat and watched them pick the hair out with her bare fingers and leave the cakes there instead of replacing them. Then I tipped on my card infront of the server, showed her, got my kids and walked out. This lady chased me out of the store yelling at me that I never left any money on the table for her as a tip. She chased my family into the parking lot, my 2 year old went to take off running and fell so hard off of the sidewalk as sheโ€™s yelling at us we didnโ€™t leave her money. I had to put my kids in the car and walk back in the restaurant and demand my receipt for nobody to even apologize for the mistake. To chase someone out of a restaurant is so beyond disrespectful. Especially from a server who sat our drinks down and didnโ€™t return to the table once.

I absolutely love this place. My wife and I go here about 3-4 times a month and do a buffet takeout. The food is always great, well stocked and with more options than you'll ever really need. We were just here today. The price is unbeatable. You can go here, get about 6lbs of food for takeout and spend about $40. That's an amazing deal for quality food. They offer all the classic dishes as well as some American fare. The deserts are pretty standard for any buffet really, pudding, some cookies, fruit and assorted small pastries. They have a wonderful selection of seafood, chicken, beef and vegetables and everything looks and tastes fresh. The staff is always welcoming and kind. They know when to ask if you need help and when to not bother you. It's the perfect combination. The restaurant itself is clean, inviting and has a very comfortable vibe. A lot of the Chinese places around us offer subpar food at high prices so it's great that Empire has better food at reasonable prices.

This was a referral and it was a shocking experience. After observing the surroundings of the carpet and the seating. The booths were old and needed repair the carpet needed to be cleaned the food was not hot it was not what we were told. The bathrooms were not clean and water on the floor near buffet area huge safety issue. Lastly the menu for the lunch buffet at one price on the menu and when we received our bill it was $2 higher. We will not return.
