My boys like it here so I took them during my lunch break when they were off of school a few weeks ago. It's really is your typical Chinese buffet experience with all of the normal fare. They also offer a small variety sushi rolls as well. I've been here a few times and really never had a bad experience. The service is very attentive and friendly, always clearing your plates away as you make another trip up for more. Another thing that stood out was that the food was hot....not luke warm....but hot which was a nice change compared to a few other buffet spots I have been to in the past. You can't beat the price at $9.99 for the lunch buffet. All in all, I think it deserves a solid three stars and is a great option for a quick and filling lunch.

Eastern Buffet is a typical Chinese buffet. They have a really nice selection of delicious Chinese cuisine! Including, sushi bar, dessert bar, salad bar and hot foods bar. Employees are quite hospitable and welcoming! We know that half the pleasure of dining out is hospitality.... Eastern Buffet isn't lacking in this department!

If I could leave zero stars i would.
I food was a dumpster fire. The coconut chicken was so greasy the sauce had no flavor.the general tsoe's tasted like watered down Frank's red hott sauce. Everything was flavorless. The wonton strips were stale. The crab rangon was undercooked. The egg riles were over cooked and had a cinnamon taste. The serving utensils were dirty and grimy. This place should be checked out by a health inspector. Never will I eat here again. I did end up with food poisoning.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 6, 2019Updated review
I blew away my old review based on a few trips recently. Added two pix also. This place gets four stars for lunch buffet. VALUE and TASTE!
The soup, blistering hot. Wonton is great! Love the dumplings and the noodle wrap. Hot and sour and egg flower soup also tasty and HOT!
It was about 1pm, and sushi buffet was well stocked, and fish all was good, even the white fish, which turns pretty quick.
The main line had a great selection of chicken, pork, shrimp (pretty big shrimp for lunch) and other rice and noodle standards.
The selection is not broad, but what is out is kept stocked, and tastes very good. No hibachi for lunch, but good, keeps cost down. And the price was $8.32 for one adult with the tax. Deserts were good, ice cream cakes and cookies.
I was happy with it when I thought price was going to be maybe $10-$12. When I rung out and it was $8.32?!? Pretty happy! Better than a soup bowl at Panera's for $10! Easily best Chinese buffet in Trumbull, Mahoning, Columbiana, Lawrence counties. Adding pix, the other pix (and mine) really don't do it justice.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Aug 25, 2016Previous reviewI liked it. Soup, hot. Better sushi than most of these new style Asian buffets. My only issue, no dumplings on their own serving platter on lunch buffet.
So, the same people who steal all the crab legs stole all the dumplings from the soup.
Otherwise, besides the usual folks who ruin it by taking all the crab legs rather than realize they are for everyone, grabbed all the dumplings out of the won ton soup.
Liked the food, just have to beat the crab leg thieves who grew up in areas where they don't know the food is for everyone. And you don't put what you can't eat in your big purse in a plastic bag at a buffet. Man, what scabs. The wrong customers, the restaurant is very good.
Just have to beat the folks who take everything on the buffet and put it in their purse so you can get some good food. - Matthew B.Warren, OH213148Aug 1, 2022Updated review
Last year I said I would never go back to this place. Well I got suckered back in. And I can honestly say I stand by what I said. I will never come here again. Food is lousy. Place is dirty. Plates and bowls are stained. Serving spoons are sticky. Just don't do it.

We had lunch at Eastern Buffet in Niles today.
Food tasted great, and selection was real good.
Also had some Sushi, which was standard buffet Sushi.
Overall very good, and will eat here again. Price for lunch was good.
One complaint: The food temperatures were spotty. Some items were warm, nothing was hot, and some items were room temperature. They need to turn up, or fix the steam tables. I am surprised they are not being addressed by the Health Department for the steam tables.
I hope they get the food temperature issue fixed before we have another meal here.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Kelly R.Masury, OH01Jan 5, 2020
When we got up to the buffet noticed a ton of empty pans so asked if they were gonna be filling them up or we would just go elsewhere. They insisted they were coming out with more food. We scrounged up enough to make a plate and sat down to eat but by the time we were done with that the only thing that got filled was the doughnuts... There was no white rice, never filled. I watched the girl scoop sesame chicken into The general tso's so it wasn't empty. Everything was dry and old or never filled. I will never waste my money here again. Worst buffet I've ever been to
