I normally went to Flaming Grill but they went downhill majorly and saw more than one review about roaches crawling on tables so I stay away from there and started coming to Chef Lin Buffet about 2 years ago and keep coming back! Chef Lin been in Frederick a long time, wish I had come here sooner. It's not as nice as the inside of Flaming Grill but the food is always good, always clean, service is on point, and they consistently check if you need a refilll and in my opinion is wayyy better than Flaming Grill! Come here if you want a good chinese buffet! Looking at the bad reviews makes me laugh, Flaming Grill is dirty and has a roach problem! Never have seen roaches here!

Most of the food was definitely day old and even as they brought out fresh food it just wasn't that good. However it is a cheap buffet and honestly for 13.99 it's about what you should expect.

I had the lunch buffet for 12.99. It wasn’t anything special with select few options. Crag Rangoon’s and egg roles were good. Rest of the food wasn’t as fresh as I’d like it.Very nice staff.
Lots of food optionsLittle rushing but overall good food2nd visit Not happy with customer service

The way they treat your customers is terrible, they charge you and the waitress demands a tip aggressively, they are rude, I will never go again, pay with my family 110 dollars wasted badly.

Food was fresh and hot ... Service was impeccable ... The Atmosphere was perfect ... Add an additional star for having my favorite Coconut Chicken ...For any buffet restaurant the best time to go is open until about 2 and then 5 until 8 ... Customers dictate the freshness of a buffet ... You can't expect a buffet to put out all fresh food 30 minutes before closing or between lunch and dinner (usually 2-5) ... Just wanted to educate those who don't understand how a buffet works from the business side ...

I’ve seen a roach in the bathroom once. But I still go there for the sushi. We go monthly. I mean… it’s really good.Kid-friendliness: There are always kids there.Wheelchair accessibility: Someone has to open the door.
