About Mei's Restaurant

Mei's Restaurant is a Chinese restaurant at 43-45 East St in Taunton, serving an all-you-can-eat buffet of pan-Asian and Chinese dishes. The spread includes scallop bao buns, steak and mussels, and a dessert section of sweets closes out the meal. The kitchen replenishes the buffet during service, and waiters clear used plates from the table. Walk-ins are taken without a booking. The evening sitting is more adult-oriented than the daytime one.

Customer Review Summary

The caveats are specific. One reviewer found some dishes dry, especially the spare ribs, and arrived at the dessert section after their choice had run out. Another, a returning visitor, felt like they were on a conveyor belt in a noisy canteen with dirty tables and floors and weaker service. One reviewer cautions that evening sittings skew toward adults and cost more. A reviewer who booked for 5:30pm saw the room half full a minute later.

    “Really enjoyable visit,very clean and tidy,friendly staff and food is fantastic. Every single dish we tried was really tasty and plenty to choose from. If we lived closer would probably go every week as its the best Chinese all you can eat buffet we have been to.”

    “In a high street of average restaurants, Mei’s is a true diamond in the rough. A busy buffet restaurant with a lot of choice. The buffet is replenished often to ensure the food is fresh. The flavours are plentiful and delicious. And the choice of deserts (if you have any room left) will make you evening complete. Highly Recommend”

    “We have been before and had a lot better, this visit felt like we were on a conveyor belt. Food choice was there and was good but service wasn't so great and atmosphere was really noisy, tables and floor dirty, it just felt like we were in a busy canteen which is a shame as our other experiences we have really enjoyed”
