Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the fresh, wide-ranging Chinese buffet, and several single out the cream of chicken soup and noodles, with one regular noting the soup rarely appears in the evenings. Close behind are the stir-fries, crispy fried favourites, orange chicken with salt and chilli chips, and apple crumble with custard. One reviewer praises the caribbean cooler mocktail. Diners repeatedly describe food that stays fresh and hot even late in the evening, warm plates, and staff who clear empty plates quickly. Service is called friendly and fast, and several mention getting a table without a wait. Reviewers also call the restaurant spotless and say it is good value. The main complaints are that children are charged the same as adults, which one parent finds steep for a daughter who eats less, and that one regular would like new dishes and some sushi. One reviewer found some dishes a bit generic. A visit about an hour before closing meant the buffet was not full, which that reviewer expected, and free parking at the back gets a mention.

“First time of being there and can't complain about anything, no waiting for a table, great selection of foods on offer and reasonably priced, staff cleared tables as soon as each dish was finished. Looking forward to going again”

“For me still this buffet around even thoo other new places have opened, food always fresh and hot we go regular and always enjoy the food. I would like to see some new dishes added and maybe some sushi, I'm a massive fan of there cream of chicken soup but rarely see it evening times.”
- Bernadette Meechan
“Daughter loves the cream of chicken soup and noodles. Prices are becoming a little steep for children being charged the same as adults. A little room on this side would be more suitable especially when some kids don't eat as much as an adult. I know my daughter doesn't. However, food is al ats fresh and there is plenty to chose from.”
