We’ve been a couple of times, the food is nice and hot and the buffet is always well stocked. Restaurant is a little cramped though, maybe too many tables? Both times we’ve been we’ve been seated by another table and had to constantly squeeze past people at the next table to get out and had the same done as they were trying to get out…there’s nothing like someone’s bottom or front rubbing on your back while your eating lol Other than that, it’s value for money :)

i have been to buffet house twice this month, the food was excellent , what are people complaining about when they say for $29 they expect more. a normal restaurant cost more than $29 a plate, i have been to $50 buffets and you do not get fresh salmon and big prawns , i had three big plates full of food. i will go back any time

What happened to your really nice waitresses? Your new ones just literally suck to say the least! Clean up the place a little please, as well! I found hair in my noodles, that’s disgusting. Will never eat at the buffet house ever again…

Very good food!! Love the chicken. Seafood is a bit old in taste but I’ll take it. Awesome staff on Sunday nights, the blonde waitress always checks up on me and my partner and makes great Pina Coladas! The restaurant is OK :)

Food quality was very poor given the price was $29 per person. A waitress was wearing jandals and a hoodie which looks unprofessional. The venue has a damp and oily smell which was off putting. The utensils and plates were not particularly clean.

Great place to visit, we have eaten at this restaurant many times, the staff are very friendly and the tables always clean.
Enjoyed the good mix of food, western and asian, deserts and fruit choice is always very good.

worst buffet restaurant i have ever been to!!! where do i start,walked in the waitress showed us to our table and walked off without saying anything! terrible, half of the food was cold and tasted like it had been sitting there all day,the plates looked like they hadn’t been cleaned properly ,the place looked dirty and the toilets could certainly do with a clean,dont know how anyone could give this place a good rating.
what a waste of $29 we definitely wont be giving it a second chance,steer clear of this place.

I regret taking my husband to buffet house earlier this evening. The place was filthy. the parking for the Restaurant was confusing, a sign said we could park in an area near the restaurant, but when we drove down it had tow away signs indicating the parking was for an apartment building behind. Walking in there is a wall made of glass bricks, one of the bricks has a hole in it and people have stuffed many cigarette butts into the hole. Where we were seated the wall next to me was really dirty, also the glasses at our table were not clean. The food was not very nice either, every thing tasted of black bean sauce. we ordered a peach Dakari and received a fluffy duck. We didn’t stay for desert. that about sums it up. Shortest visit to a buffet EVER!
