The buffet is great! They have a huge variety and not just Chinese food. I love their Coconut Chicken and Crab Rangoon (it's not too sweet. I've noticed some places seem to add extra sugar to their cream cheese & crab mixture and I'm not a fan of it. This location does not add too much sweetener in their Crab Rangoon.) My friend loves their fried chicken wings (not the drumsticks - just the wings! The meat to batter ratio is perfect for her! 😁) Their dessert options aren't that good (tasting) but who goes to a Chinese Buffet for dessert? 🤷🏽‍♀️😁

Overall decent buffet with a good variety of standard chinese menu items, and a number of unique ones offered as well. Most buffets dont have bacon wrapped scallops or carving stations, this one does. Pricing was fair at $17/person for dinner. Food was overall fresh and warm/hot, with good overall quality. Enough variety where you can come back a few times before you try it all. Service was friendly and prompt. The place inside is a bit dark, and I wouldnt say run down but showing wear. It was clean though. Id come back again it is a good overall buffet.

Was driving through New Hampshire and found Imperial Buffet. Service was friendly, the restaurant can use some updates, but the food wasn't bad and reasonably priced. Enjoyed the green beans and shrimp dishes, and the baked seafood with cheese was particularly excellent. Hot and sour soup was just okay.

Food is honestly pretty good. If its fried it's crisp, if its a meat its pretty fresh. I watched their staff bus and remove platters that were still half full and replaced them. So they are not skimping on freshness. The sushi was surprisingly solid. I am not a fan of buffet sushi as it is usually low quality Their was honestly enjoyable and had some selections like rainbow roll. I even got a second plate of sushi. Tons of protein options and flavors of chicken, pork and beef. Wonton were killer. Rangoon was crisp and flavorful. Will be back 100%. Price was super reasonable. 2 adults and 1 toddler (2 year old) was $30 Desert had lots of options. Usual jello, brownies, donut-like cream deserts. But they also had 2 flavors of moose, some cakes, and the classic banana with strawberry sauce.

I had gone here all the time when I lived in Claremont, and even just went with my family about a year ago and the food was delicious! We went on Saturday and the food was horrible. Not warm and just really dry. I feel like they changed their egg rolls and not for the better. Not very impressed in all honesty.
