    When I go to a buffet, I usually stay for 1.5 hours. At the buffet, you don't need to wait to order, and then wait for the food to arrive, so you can just go to get your stuff to eat and be finished quickly. So, actually, 1.5 hours is not too bad.

    I never stay more than an hour at a buffet since buffet food is never
    that good. It is very tough to find a good Chinese buffet place here
    in Canada.

    Never timed it. Just stayed as long as I want to, till I am done with the food and dessert.

    until you've eaten so much that the thought of eating food make you feel ill, then you go home and wake up the next morning wishing you was still there :(

    It all depends on who you are eating with. If its friends that I've not seen for sometime, usually its more than 2 hours for me.
