went there for buffet lunch today, cold outside and just as cold inside. The buffet bowls were mostly empty and what there was was cold. Staff don't speak to you and you have to ask for a glass to drink your soft drink from will not be returning there and definately would not recommend this place. Why open if your not going to do decent hot food.

Food is alright for the lunch buffet, but options are limited - although you can ask the staff to cook more of some items if available. The quality of the food varies, some items like the sweet and sour chicken are alright, but others like the vaguely named ‘spicy noodles’ were a bit bland and didn’t even taste spicy

Very good value for money. Excellent range of Chinese food, including duck with hoisin sauce. Good mix of spicy and non-spicy options. Genuine all you can eat buffet.

Visited yesterday for lunch.....food was ok...only thing is unlike other buffetts they don't clear your plates and don't give you new ones when you go for seconds...i got the idea they dont really want you goin for seconds .....lol....asked for a second plate and was given a hot plate which burned my hand...don't know how she didn't know as she held it before giving it to me...Also not fully stocked with variety. Went in at noon and some trays were empty....atmosphere was dull.

I went there for a Dinner Buffet, The first suprise restaurant was empty on a Saturday Night, the waitress charged me and i paid before i started eating. Then a couple walks in and the waitress sits them right next to my table and the restaurant was totally empty, i could not understand this, i asked to be moved to another table as i needed space to eat the waitress started shouting at me stay in your place totally she was so rude to me, the couple now moved to 2 tables down, i could not understand why he waitress would do that to me i was totally made a fool of. I immediately stood up and walked out. The waitress has no manners at all she has no idea of what customer service is about, no wonder the restaurant was empty on a Saturday Evening her rude nature has driven all the customers away, I would never return again even if it was free. I would strongly advice not to go there avoid this chinese buffet at all cost, i suggest the place to be turned into a take away or closed down.

It doesn't look like the same restaurant that i used to go to. I went there at about 13:30, basically there was no food display. The lady just asked what we wanted that she would bring. My husband asked for chicken wings, and she said, "How many?" If it is a buffet, where is the food? I'm definitely not going back.

Use to come here often when younger. Came with my parents and the quality is still good for a buffet but the refilling of the dishes took forever. 15mins for the noodles. Are 1 and half plate. Ehhhh it’s a good place just needs some passion put back into it. But I feel it’s found it’s locals and caters for them anymore and it goes into chaos. shame really. Might be back in afew months time. No apology or anything from owner just here you go pay. Bye. Not 1 word was exchanged lol I will be going again but to anybody else go when they first open as everything will be stocked.

The food was exceptionally dry and almost inedible and practically nonexistent - even when we hinted we’d had no duck- it wasn’t replaced as few diners on Monday night. No finger bowls so lots of people licking their lips and helping themselves to food with the tongs!

I feel some of the negative reviews are unfair. Yes there isn't much choice left shortly before they close because it would go to waste otherwise! And I've been in there on a friday evening with not very many customers, so one member of staff serving the tables is enough. They do offer to refresh containers on the buffet if required or if another table has also asked even if it's getting a little late. My friend insists on going here for the chicken now when she visits lol! A shame the price has gone up but so has everyting these days!

We ate around 7-9pm Saturday evening and the Buffet Place is an all you can eat (or find) eatery which varies depending on what time you get there inrelation to when the dishes are refreshed. Newly cooked stuff is very tasty and pretty much the usual Chinese buffet cuisine. Price is £14.50 a head on a Saturday but cheaper during the week (which makes it better value for money), plus a little expensive on the drinks. Surroundings are basic and food is kept very hot, howver long it's been there. Only one lady serving, which was understandable given the size of the place, and she became more friendly as the night wore on, albeit a bit shy and frosty at first. WE did enjoy our meal in spite of not being convinced when we first arrived and would probably return should we ever be in potters Bar again. It's right in the middle of the high St so really easy to find and parking in the road outside seems to be free after 6 or 7pm.

Then on Saturday there were 9 of us and again we had to ask for food to be brought out. I dont like leaving bad views but its unacceptable having to ask for food to be brought out , when its eat what you like.

My partner and I were at the buffet for the first time yesterday. We were disappointed because the containers had leftovers or many things were missing. I understand that in 2 hours they would close but such things should not happen since the customer pays £ 13.50. Little choice compared to places in the center of London for a not much higher price.Generally, the food is tasty, but sometimes too cold and too greasy.

Food has always been lovely, when you can get it . Buffet is supposed to mean you have a choice of a few foods. We have to continuously ask for food as there is never anything there , then you are asked “how many chicken balls do you want” it’s a buffet , so even if I wanted 3 chicken balls, I am sure someone else will want some too. New lady comes across very rude too, poor customer services. I will continue to come here due to the food being so nice though .

We ordered drinks and these were slammed down on the table in cans! The lack of food choice was shocking! NOTHING was being replenished at all and a customer came in for a take away and asked a waitress if any more food would be coming out.

Do not eat here! Im not surprised the place was empty. The food had mostly run out and everything was really dry because it had been sat there for ages. The sauce was all covered in a layer of skin. I paid £50 for 3 people to eat and a can of coke each. I had a bit of food on my plate and asked for a container to bring it home and she tried to charge me an extra £6.50, you would think they would be a bit more flexible considering that we were the only customers in there but no 👎

Been here before and it's been fine, not excellent but good enough. However, on this occasion it was not good. I assume that Friday and Saturday are the expected busiest nights so you account for that. Ok, it wasn't packed but that doesn't mean you let the buffet run empty on almost all the choices. I understand that you don't want waste but in a buffet style establishment there is always going to be some waste. We waited 30 minutes for the dishes to be refreshed and even then it was only about 25% of the choices and to cap it all when it came to dessert we were told they had run out. They certainly weren't busy enough to be eaten out of stock. We did eat enough of what was there in the end and we were full but the waitress then had the nerve to ask me if I would like to add a tip, yes, refresh the food quicker.

The food is very tasty but the trays are always nearly empty and a bit dry. It must have changed ownership, now there is only long life milk available instead of cream for the coffee and no fortune cookie with the bill. They start turning the lights off at about 9.30 so you can't linger.

We ordered drink 2 cans of coke and a carton of juice £6.20 and had our temperature took with a contactless thermometer being aimed at our ARMS 🤣 When the drinks came the staff member slammed the glasses and cans on the desk as if we had upset them being there. I took our Daughter to the "buffet" while My Partner sat with our Baby Son at the table. The food selection was minimal approx 12 metal containers wich majority were empty but looking at the curry one wich was as good as empty and the sauce looked like it was that cold it was forming a skin on it.. I asked if there was any more food in wich they said it would come soon and told to sit down. While I was at the "buffet" My partner had been speaking to another table who said they waited 30min inbetween plates and it was all cold.. to wich a member of staff told My partner to not talk to the other tables. I went and paid for the drinks just to get out of the place and the staff was trying to say more food was coming but we left.. Ive never seen such a sh1t hole of a chinese restraunt wit such rude staff.. please just STAY AWAY.

Good selection of food. We generally go early when there is plenty of availability.Loads of people call in for a takeaway box and these people do compete at the buffet somewhat with the diners which is a bit of a nuisance

These people are rude and breaking the law. Refused entry for not wearing a mask which is a breach of section 29 (5) (a) of the Equality act 2010. My solicitors will be issuing a writ in the small claims court. They wanted to point some “radar gun” at my 8 year olds head and wanted us to wear masks to our tables and when I explained I am an asthma sufferer with an exemption card he (manager) said he didn’t care and refused to serve us. See you in court very soon

Really good fresh food, great flavours. Good social distancing and Covid precautions.

It used to be 5/5 but since the COVID measures started, they serve your food and it's not as practical because you have to keep asking for more meat/chicken as they just want you to get rice and noodles.

Plenty to eat but not the variety that I can get elsewhere. Pleasant proprietor and was clean. Cheap and cheerful.

The salt and pepper chicken was so dry and no chicken to be seen. The king po king prawn had a weird smell and the sauce was like water. All in all it was tasteless and very disappointing

Much faster than expected delivery time and food tasted good. Shame it was ruined by the diarrhoea that followed. My housemate and I shared the food and have both been suffering the after effects so I just can't give more than 2 stars.

This small mom and pop take-out shop serves good Chinese food that will not alarm or confuse local appetites. Been back a few times and it has not disappointed yet. However they only accept cash - no cards. Looks like they do a decent amount of delivery too. Friendly staff.

Do not eat here if you suffer with allergies. First, the waiting staff could not provide an allergy menu (they do not have one - in spite of the legal requirement to be able to produce this information). Second, when we asked for a simple half a peking duck, we couldn't have this either as the restaurant fries nut-based dishes in the same oil as the rest of the other food. I ended up having a quarter duck and my partner, with allergies, just had rice... and then she had an allergic reaction. Cross-contamination is rife in this kitchen. We will not be back.
