buffet
In the UK it is most commonly known simply as a buffet, although buffet table doesn't sound bad.
smorgasbord - which, as the Russian implies - is the original Swedish term -tends to be used more in a metaphorical sense in UK English (and I would guess the same is true of US English).

Comment: "Thanks to everybody. This answer wasn't the first one but it seemed the most telling. I liked the expression "buffet style" too."

Buffet; smorgasbord
Второе значение, по-моему книжное
Ни разу не видела " в деле", только в книжках
Первое часто употребляется

: Вообще-то меня зовут Игорь, а что касается buffet table, то в Америке именно так и говорят, а можно и просто buffet. Если вам нужно подтверждение Интернета, пожалуйста, см. выше.

Извините за искажение имени. Там где мой текст искажен, я написала "я этого термина не встречала, но это не значит, что он не существует". А потом второй раз повторила уже более кратко. Не обижайтесь, пожалуйста. Я никогда не была в Америке

cold table
A major feature of Scandinavian eating is the “cold table”–Danish koldt bord, Finnish voileipapoyta, Norwegian koldtbord, Swedish smorgasbord is literally a table bearing many different cold items from which guests can choose, returning as often as they like. It’s a reflection of the variety of Scandinavian cuisine.

The Whale is open for Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We have only been here for the super-mega-buffet seafood dinner! Take a look at the pictures below, and understand that the camera lens couldn\'t take in the whole buffet table! The cost is $ 25.00 per adult, but it includes UNLIMITED oysters, clams, shrimp, stone crab claws, and Alaskan King crab legs....and that\'s only the cold table!!!
I did bypass the other cold items, like slaw and potato salad so I could concentrate on those crab legs better! But the cold table has about 20 other choice salads.
There are several soup choices, and I had the Conch Chowder that wasn\'t packed with goodies, but had a good spicy flavor.
