China Buffet King in Renfrewshire

Normally, this restaurant is good however we went today 10mins after it opened at 12 noon, the food was stone cold, very greasy and some of the chicken I had tasted off. Worst meal I've ever had, wouldn't recommend this place anymore. We certainly won't be back, i was actually sick not long after eating from here . A huge disappointment. They also use genetically modified oil to cook their food in

Good service and brilliant food x

Either a hit or a miss been a few times now and every time i have a different opinion

As I'm writing this just now I've not been away from the pan all day coming from both ends .went last night been ill all day missed a day's work and probably tomorrow as well .I won't be back

Staffs are rude kept watching us and made me uncomfortable as we were the only blacks in the restaurant. They all followed us to payment point so annoying.

Delicious food. Good service. The decor should be happier and more colorful, because it is gloomy.

Plates weren’t dried properly and the food was all mixed

Some plates were dirty some were not dried a lot of the food was mixed up really bad for allergies

First time at venue for wife and myself. Went at 2PM which counted as lunchtime, which is when the buffet is cheapest. Although less selection than at other times, you’d hardly notice. Still lots to choose from, 3 types of soup, with fresh crusty bread and butter. Lots of starters to pick. Each dish was labelled clearly on the top of the serving station. I saw food being refreshed / replenished on a regular basis by the kitchen staff. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of meat on the spare ribs. Sesame prawn toast was also tasty and crispy without being dry. Two types of fried rice available. Boiled rice was available on request. All the mains dishes had plenty of meat in the sauce ( rather than little lumps swimming in it ). All food I tried was warm enough for me. The plates were of a smaller size than I was expecting. I soon discovered that used plates were cleared from the table by staff within a very short time. A supply of clean plates and cutlery were placed at multiple points around the buffet. These were clean and in good condition ( no cracks or chips). I didn’t do puddings but there was a wide choice. My wife tried a selection and loved her choices. We chose the refillable soft drinks. Was happy with the choice of fizz available. Other diners chose big jugs of water with their meals, which were refilled throughout. Staff weee friendly an attentive. Plates were cleared quickly, tables cleaned as soon as they were vacated. There was no queue at the entrance when we visited, just a friendly waiter to show us to our seats. Whole restaurant looked clean and tidy. I used the gents while at venue and was happy to see that it was also clean an tidy. Certainly will go back and would recommend to others. Downside: the music being played wasn’t oriental but uk pop which I found disappointing, but didn’t spoil the visit and the satay sauce was a little bit thinner than I’d like. (But still very tasty ).

Brilliant buffae always friendly great food good prices.

The food, staff and vibes are nice

It's ok to eat at this location for a reasonable price. My partner likes to eat here (he can eat everything 😅), but my expectations about food and taste are too high, so I can't enjoy the taste of the food at maximum here. I can eat here only if I'm really hungry 😁 like noodles, rice, beef, and salad (fruits). (The rest of the food contains some specific Chinese sos / spices that makes all the food taste the same. Unfortunately, I dont like that flavour). If you're like my partner, you will enjoy here. If you are like me you don't! 😁

The buffet price is quite affordable and parking is very convenient.

Very busy.The food was so good.Prices are super cheap compared to other buffets.

No stars for this place! Have been many years and NEVER have i ever walked out....we walked in for a romantic meal for 2 at 6pm today and when we got to pick our food there was a strange smell...we then realised that next to the currys at the disabled toilet which had a strong smell of urine, disgusting, will never come back....food choice rotten too. Be jing banquet blows you out of water. Will never spend my money in there ever again!!!!

Regular customers staff are always working hard to help provide service, great food at low cost prices. All you can eat no matter what day, good location for lunch or dinner during your activities.

Come here often and celebrating first meal as a married couple as it the best place for Chinese food and you can eat as much as you want and a great selection to choose from

My favourite buffet. Ive been coming here regularly for years. Staff are friendly and food is always delicious !

Food was stone cold some was warm the chocolate fountain was weird and foamy threw me off a bit with it the fruit had “pubic hair …normal hair unsure “ what had made me leave the chicken was over cooked it was hard n chewey fries were cold and juice dispenser was pratically water next to the buffet smelled like a toilet . Won’t be back again .

Today's experience was a delight. However, 5 stars for food & service would have happened but there was a few plates I left with food on it for the reasons being 'soggy chicken chow mein' - near cold centred hash browns (which had just been brought out) and the Aromatic Duck wasn't aromatic at all - more like shredded left overs from a processed meat factory. I understand we all have our days at work and you are all working to your best everyday - just better to highlight yous are doing great apart from what I mentioned above.

me and mates in motor, we’re cooked

Food wasn't good and most of the food so cold and I was going to walk down and when told staff about the food being cold the staff wasn't even bothered about it and they said us both we waited for a 5/10 after sitting down to eat once we went to get food that wasn't the case when we sitting down having food once of the staff members was lying down on sofa and on his phone in full view of people

Amazing food with great service

When I went there they slapped me with the chicken cow mein I cried for hours on end but the food was a solid 4/5 would recommend

I think it’s very much a hit and miss, but we definitely enjoyed this visit. The food was fresh & warm. Nice new additions since I’ve last been. Cheap & cheerful. Good variety there for fussy eaters. I really enjoyed the Peking duck. £14.99 all day Sunday!

I really enjoyed eating here. The food was great

paid for an unlimited refill which we never got. food was really good but the bathrooms were absolutely vile

I go china buffet most times. I live in Dunoon but i travel all the way just to enjoy the atmospere, food and service. There are variety of food and very yummy.

Would never go again, place dirty - smelled like a toilet next to the buffet area, ordered unlimited drinks - got one, ordered another that never arrived after waiting 25mins and asking again. Went to pay and advised I would only pay for one drink as that's all we had. Then the man explained that he can't change the bill as that's what I ordered however I received only one drink so I will not br paying, he argued with me, made a scene! - called up the waiter who I ordered the second drink to ask if I had ordered another - he denied serving me/ what a laugh, I will never return to this dirty horrible place.

Used to absolutely love this place. My favourite buffet. Went today ordered food and unlimited drinks. We got 1 drink. When we asked a server for another, they said it wouldn't be long. 10 minutes later, I asked a different server for the same drink order again, we were told "right away" after explaining that we'd already asked someone else. 5mins later, my partner goes to the bar and asks for our drinks to be told to sit back down, and they'd be over with them now. Another 5 mins passed, and people who have ordered drinks after us have been given theirs. So, we thought forget it and let's go pay. I told the person who was at the till I only wanted to pay for signle drinks since we'd asked 3 times for our second drinks. He looked at me and said, "It's fine, it's not like it's much of a difference anyway." I couldn't care less about the difference and told him that 😂😂. Again, he told me, "Well, you should have come up to the bar and asked for your drinks." WE DID 😂😂. Some staff retraining wouldn't go a miss with your staff that interact with customers.

🤢words don’t describe how uncomfortable I felt here! Food was like Slodge and slime, I took one bite and immediately wanted to start crying and leave, even looking at reviews on pictures whilst going to write this I feel my stomach turning!!!! Staff were nice but food and the place in general, absolutely barking

Despite the smaller plates than in the past, still an ideal place to eat.

Went with a few friends was amazing very friendly staff. I managed to complete the 10 plate challenge and receive an audience with the Last China Buffet King who was surprisingly down to earth and very funny

Has alot of options including salad and deserts. Staff are fast and friendly. Place is kept repelnished well and is clean.

I love this Chinese! There egg fu young is amazing aswell as Singapore noodles, and bbq spare ribs 😇! I'm stuffed!!!! Great takeaway 💯%

Atmosphere, there wasn't any, just people eating food in silence. Could do with a bit of music playing in the background. The food was freshly cooked and quickly topped up when finished and plenty to choose from, overall lovely meal

My friend went here today and text me and said she has food poisoning and has been spewing her guts up all day would not recommend eating there.

Cold food and cold atmosphere went in just after it had opened. So can't understand why most of the hot dishes were not that hot in temperature. Good selection on offer, poor desert choices. Would I return probably not.

Great all you can eat for £12. Nice variety, including English dishes. Probably one of the best we've been to in a while. Coke cans and free refills. Staff very friendly

Went for first time and will definitely be going back food was amazing and staff were great and kind highly recommend

Value for money. Service was very good Sorry but reminded me of a good Naffi

I would like to say a big thank you for my food it was delicious. The service was good as well but this guy I think his name was Zach he looked 2 but had a beard he kept asking me for food once I gave him something he went to another table asking for food not sure why but it was cute. The chocolate fountain was amazing I will definitely be going here again 😁👍

Hi everyone I think this buffet establishment is one of the best I have seen I myself eat a lot of food so I know my way around a buffet and take it from me the place does not disappoint the food is great and the people are greater The atmosphere is top notch I personally love this place would recommend. Very family friendly and fun🥰😍🥰😘😍🐺🥰😍😘

Not overly pleased with the restaurant, feel like it has went downhill over the years which is a shame as there is nothing like it in the centre. There was dishes that were cold and other people complaining about it while we were in. The staff seem to stand and stare due to it not being very busy which in itself is a little off putting but can't really do much else can they. I had some sesame chicken and it had a really bad taste of fish as did the pepper chips when I had no fish dishes at all, strange. The chicken curry was okay as were the egg fried rice dishes. But other than that not fantastic. Definitely the cheaper place in the centre to go for lunch so is attractive that way but otherwise wouldn't revisit anymore sadly

Friendly staff, great selection of dishes to try from starters through to dessert. Always a welcoming atmosphere when dining in and reasonably priced.

The food was delicious, very fresh and tasty. They were serving sushi, many plates of traditional Chinese food, cakes and ice creams. Staff were very kind and attentive with a sense of humour 🤗 lovely people! The ambience was simple but clean and tidy. Price for all you can eat was £16.50 pp. That was the first ever place which asked if we have NHS card. Places which usually accepting blue card don't bother if you have it or not. Overall we had a great time, we filled our bellys and pay low price. Definatelly will come back in there x

We went on my bithday had a great night the staff are nice & friendly we enjoyed the food, absolutly loved the puddings I had the chocolate cake &it was lush he had the Cheesecake & loved it, we will definetly be going back again!!!

Fantastic value for money and the food is absolutely yummy 🤤! Highly recommended!

really nice enjoyable food manky bathrooms nice juice loads of things to chose from

Tasty food and good variety of choice . 😋

Lovely food. Very good value. Waiters could be a bit happier though....could barely raise a smile from them but always very helpful and good service.

Went here for my partners birthday with partner and his family. Super friendly service and a large variety of Chinese food, there was something for everyone here! Everyone else in my party got unlimited drinks, I thought it was nice how the drinks came in can form as opposed to from taps. Left full and happy. Food was amazing quality, one of the best buffets I’ve visited! I loved all the different ice creams for dessert. Clean and well kept place. Although pickles tasted a bit stale but not a huge issue. Would come back!

Large selection of food. Even Had sausages. Nuggets, pizza and other items for anyone that doesn't fancy Chinese food. Soft Drinks are unlimited even the cans are included. Really enjoyed the food.

Ideal place plenty choices and a good price attentive staff.

Fantastic buffet and all good seafood and meats. Surprisingly great

Staff are very friendly and food is amazing and all you can eat

It's good but not the best buffet selection

Cant find anything to fault about here. Even if food is buffet style it is of excellent quality and plentiful. Will definately be back.

Food was delicious and it was a wee date day with my wife plus a celebration of me having a new job 😁😁👍

Some stuff is worse than it looks and some better.. Enough choice to feed anyone. If you don't like an item: shut up, leave it and try something else lse.

Food was amazing kids really enjoyed.

Great lunch time price, food is good too, but just looks a bit depressing

I love eating here, there is so much to choose from that your over full leaving. We always have the mixed buffet.

Have went here for 5 years on or around the date of my daughter's birthday (her choice). What can I say ..it's actually pretty good. Food could be a lot hotter but selection is fantastic. Value for money ..yes. go on the afternoon eating .

The China Buffet King is a lovely place to visit, it's based inside the far end of XSite, Braehead, Glasgow. You have to queue up and then when there is a table avaialble you get taken there by the staff and then you can help yourself to their food, I thought it was a good range that meant there was something for everyone, the flavours were good and I loved the sushi section, the chcoloate fondue was lovely too. I do think it's best to visit in the afternoon because it's quieter than the evening when it is expected to be full no matter what day it is.

Food was okay , ice cream WASENT , it was warm and like mouse my dad was sick because of it , not good made us feel sick overall 2/10 WOULD NOT !!!! RECOMMEND COMING HERE !!!!

A bit disapointed Wasn't good at all... The food just tasted weird. All the dishes with sauce I tried was like it was filtered with water. Vegetable spring rolls and noodles tasted like it was gone off. Sushi wasn't great, was a bit hard. Swiss roll was hard and inedible. The cheesecake was okay but the biscuit at the bottom was hard and again inedible. However, the little mini Swiss roll was good, but this was the only good food that I had. I think the food was just lying out for way too long... The service was okay, just people doing their job. No hate towards them. I hope that this is helpful for the restaurant and that it can get better, cheers.

Went for lunch on a Saturday with my wife and 2 year old, £11.50 per adult for an all you can eat buffet with sushi, all the usual Chinese dishes and plenty for kids. Food was fresh and tasty, service was nice and deserves to be tried if you’re in the area!

Plentiful variety of good food with excellent and helpful staff

Absolutely fantastic dining experience here this evening. Delicious food, very well cooked, excellent selection and great service. One of the best Chinese restaurants I have ever been to and I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

We love going here, great day family friendly

The food was excellent!! There a great variety of dishes, the fruits were super fresh and sweet. The staff members were really kind.

Love the choices at china buffet king,huge selection of food,place was nice and clean,huge free carpark,lots on site to keep kids happy

Loved it cheep as chips ,did not cost a arm and leg.go try your self.

If I had a tagline for this China Buffet King, It would be that; TO THE HUNGRY, EVEN WHAT IS BITTER TASTES SWEET. I said that to say, This is just an ordinary unorganised eatery. They blame you for their own unprofessionalism and irresponsibility. If you are going here; Please Manage your expectations, if you expect better regarding many things, SORRY. It might excite those are very hungry, those whom their taste bud don't know any better, and those who don't mind better because of price & just want to settle for less. Personal experience: Wife was hungry and decided to go eat there, we didn't know we were meant to hang at the entrance and wait for someone to give a seat. We got a seat by ourselves and she alone took the starter and a bit of dried grain called rice, before we decided to leave. On going to make payment, the cashier wanted to charge for 2 persons, i told him it was my wife alone that ate. He started behaving funny, So I asked if he could verify using their CCTV to ascertain the authenticity of my claim. Next he said, "I am the Violent and aggressive one. Whoever employs anyone to for whatever reason verbally abuse a customer. Not nice. Agreed they don't have any hungry customer retention plan, they should train staff on workplace communication and conflict resolution management at through least. Never again, Its okay for me to pay for a food not Satisfying or delightful, I am happy to pay for an atmosphere not looking impeccable but I won't be found again in a place where I would pay for someone to freely verbally insult for a meal of not up to 50 pounds. If you want better i recommend COSMO.

The best Chinese buffet I've had in a while! All fresh food being served constantly. Lovely staff on hand to help and plenty of dishes to try! Worth the money

Having now been again since it was closed down for a while I can honestly say I likely not be back. Food was bland but plentiful, almost boring. Food was mostly warm and topped up regularly so no complaints there but it just really missed variety and flavourful dishes which is a real shame.

the workers kept staring at me and the people i was with while eating and made us so uncomfortable that we left after only eating 1 plate

Been going for years food always made to a high standard

WAS AMAZING 👏 NAW BEEN FUR AGES SO IT WAS EVEN BETTER THAN BEFORE

Good value for money. Plenty of choice.

Food was brilliant . Took about 15 minutes before getting our drinks which were ordered as soon as we sat down. It was very quiet. Emptiest I've seen it but usually busy and good atmosphere. Staff onto of game with topping up empty food trays.

Lovely food with services discount

Best buffet available right now.

Good selection of food. Service for drinks is pedestrian to non existent so so slow.

Place is brilliant tbh. Staff are great and food is awesome :)

Food is lovely. However, I have noticed the size of items, i.e., chicken balls have gotten dramatically smaller and prices higher.

Fabulous choice of food from salads, soup, sushi and hot starters. Ample different mains and sides followed by fruit, cakes, jelly and ice cream or a chocolate fountain for dessert options. All of which were replenished often and fresh. Superb value at £3 for bottomless soft drinks and £13.49 for the 5-7pm service. If you can't find something you like here then there is something wrong with YOU and not this place! A firm favorite when we visit Glasgow.

Great selection of food. Everything we tried was delicious especially the prawn toast and the cheesecake. Service was fab too. Will definitely be back.

The prices here are really good with a wide variety of food, the quality of food was also not too bad, however during my second visit during the summer there was some flies around the sushi area, and the pudding area isn’t always the cleanest (due to kids loving it) It’s a super causal atmosphere with a lot of families with young children and there’s definitely a lot of food options for fussy kids as well. Service wasn’t the worst very basic service. Sometimes we’d wait a while on drink refills (can replacements unlimited drinks are served as cans of juice) Overall it’s not a bad place to go to especially if you’re out shopping or at the arcades and there’s a lot of buses from Glasgow city centre straight to it so super easy to get to.

Great food and staff really helpful. Will return. Good value.

Went for family meal was lovely, food was very fresh and tasty.

Vile. Atmosphere of a morgue. Looked filthy, especially the toilets 🤮 lots of staff, but not very attentive. Food - over cooked or twice cooked chicken-was like trying to chomp through a shoe. Most items tasted freezer burned or off. Main dishes reeked of vinegar and were watery slop. Could only eat the obviously tinned fruit. As a care worker I resented paying premium for utter durge. Certainly won't be back

Huge choice of food, happy hour is best value for money 5pm - 7pm Monday to Friday.

Food did not get changed over quickly

Loads to choose from, such a variety of food, not just savoury, they have a great selection of sweet stuff too. The cheesecakes are great! The staff are very efficient and friendly.

Was ok but not the best. Some food had been lying for a while so wasn't that good. Overall, it was average 🙄

the place had a damp sweet smell that completely threw us off, the tables were sticky aswell. the food was cold and lacked flavour and felt as if it made us feel sick, the atmosphere is very depressing but the head waiter was quite sound.

I loved every bit of the buffet

It has good food, with nicely trained staff and average higiene levels.
