  “If I could give zero I would. Only good thing about this place was the decor and the toilets were clean, but for what it’s actually charging and the options. It’s a rip off. We went as a five and got large drinks each, not many options, and staff stood there watching people eat and laughing at them. Very intimidating and patronising. The dessert were so rubbish, it was like soft and very old kiwis that were left out. Upon finishing, a service was applied then I asked them to take it off as I didn’t believe that they deserved it and the man insulted me in Chinese. Safe to say, one and done. First time going there and never will be back! Bad business.”

  “Not the biggest range of food I've known but a big range of food nonetheless. Unusually, there was seaweed. Too many dishes were chicken for my liking. Everything was well cooked and fresh. A few things I expect at Chinese buffets were missing such as lychees. The price was good at £20 each including the soft drink.”

  “Had a brilliant visit to East Orient! The buffet had a great variety of food, all fresh, hot, and constantly being topped up. There was something for everyone, and everything we tried was really tasty. Service was excellent – staff were friendly, attentive, and quick to clear plates so you could enjoy the next round without waiting. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a family meal. We all had a great time and left full and happy! Great value for money as well. We’ll definitely be back 👍”

  “Excellent service. Nice interioror. Good food variety. Delicious. But... Floors greasy and slippery,my wife nearly slipped fell over .Shandy I ordered smelt like piss scooped from urinal and tasted horrible. Half an hour later after the visit all of our family had diarrhea. Definitely something was wrong with the food. Doughter has noticed they got only 3 stars food hygiene rating. Not coming back to this place again.”

  “The food was ok, I'd never been before so I'm not sure what time is best to go at. When we were in there the staff were watching us eat which made me a bit awkward. There wasn't really a service but the guy who I'm assuming is the manager kept on reminding us how long we had left to eat our food and how we couldn't get anymore food (which we weren't anyway) as we were done eating, it felt a bit rushed but I know they have a certain time that they do the catering but he could have waited till we were done and it wasn't just us in there either. Food is a little bit cold and I'm not sure how I feel about cleanliness as I'd heard about the hygiene but I thought I'd give it the benefit of the doubt, I can say it is mostly clean but the all you can eat area wasn't as clean as it should be.”

  “Visited the East Orient Chinese Restaurant with my family to celebrate my wifes 65th birthday. Lovely warm and cogenial atmosphere, clean and well laid out. Buffet style food with loads to choose from to cater for eveyones needs. The staff were very polite and helpful and attended to us with a smile. We all came away full and content and will definitely return.”

  “For a Chinese buffet, it was fine and as expected. As someone who paid £73 for two adults and a child to have the grand buffet and 4 glasses of Pepsi between us (£16) I found it overpriced. The food was ok, if not tinged with a slight sogginess, but it was alright. Nothing more. Service was very good, but I couldn't justify the price and left feeling I should have gone somewhere else.”

  “Food was great, good variety from Chinese to Indian and basic English food (chicken nuggets, chips etc). My reason for 2 stars was the waitress with the ponytail and slight build was not nicest host. Very rude, tried to get us to make our own drinks. Miserable face and she started pointing our direction. I don't understand why literally turned to eat, showed respect and manners. so we were confused about her attitude. Other workers were good but after the fly gate i wont be returning.”

  “I hadn't eaten here in a while so I decided to take my partner when we were in the area. When we arrived we seen the prices outside, the prices have gone up over the past few years as expected. It is more expensive than some other places in the area for lunch, but I really enjoy the food here. Once we entered we were placed on a table that seated 2 people and we were able to order drinks. The drinks arrived quickly to the table, they are not refillable.The food is all you can eat and you are able to go up and choose whatever you like. There is a large variety of food available. All the food tasted lovely and was very hot. There are also starters, main and dessert available. The restaurant has lovely decoration all around and even plays relaxing whilst you eat. We only went for lunch so part of the restaurant wasn't in use. My only problem with my experience was the toilets. They do offer a disabled bathroom, this is amazing. However the ceiling is very low so this may be a problem for carers. Also the main toilets I didn't feel were very clean as there were a few spiders dotted around. I would gladly visit again when I am next in the area.”
