Visited the restaurant last night and wasn’t overly impressed at all with the standard of food. We don’t tend to leave food on our plates and hate wasting food but I felt there was a lot of uneaten because it wasn’t up to scratch at all. The chicken was overcooked and dry, salad from the salad bar wasn’t fresh at all and turning yellow. I got a steak cooked at the grill part and my plate was just dripping with oil. Cheap chocolate in the chocolate fountain with gritty pieces through it. I felt I wasted £60 for myself and my two kids not to eat much at all. And what I have eaten I’ve been woken up during the night with the sorest of tummies and the worst case of the runs. Would not recommend this place for food however the staff were lovely and obviously quick service.

Disappointing Buffet Experience – Not Worth the Price Me and my husband recently had a very disappointing experience at the buffet dinner. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was uncomfortable, especially in the grill and live cooking section. The staff seemed unfriendly and stared at customers, which made the experience very awkward and uncomfortable. The food selection was extremely limited, with only a small variety of dishes to choose from. Many of the items appeared overly colored, which was off-putting. Even the garlic naan bread was oddly spread with green color and tasted raw. The chicken dishes were tough and didn’t seem fresh at all, as if they hadn’t been prepared on the same day. To top it off, the hot chocolate from the fountain was of very low quality, tasting powdered and cheap. For the price charged, the overall experience felt completely overpriced and underwhelming. I would not recommend this buffet, especially considering the lack of quality in both the food and service.

Always nice staff, the food is always hot and excellent, plenty vegan and vegetarian options, also different cousines, Chinese, Italian, Indian, European, the only thing I missed is fresh basic fruits, like grapes, apples, bananas etc, but there were some fresh melon and tin pineapples and tin pears. The layout is great, even if is super busy, you don't feel crowded. Our food was tasy and we enjoyed it very much.

Love this place! We came to Livingston 3 times over the summer just so we can eat here. It's Greta because it has something for everyone. Sushi, mixed grill, carvery, Indian, Asian, Mexican, fried foods, desserts and ice cream. Plus plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. As a tip, if you book a reservation online I believe they offer a slight discount (might apply to weekdays only).

We have been coming to Hot Flame for years now every time we travel through to Livingstone or Edinburgh way! A fantastic range of Chinese, Indian, Italian and live cooking food to choose from. My absolute favourite is the Teppanyaki Bar where my favourite chef puts on a fantastic show juggling his knives and spice bottle, finishing with a spectacular fire show. Brilliant. Sushi is also amazing. Definitely recommended (but bring back the Zinfandel Rose wine as I miss it!)

My first visit to this buffet. I tried 2 different ones before, and so far this one is the best. I came around 2pm on Saturday, place was almost full but that was actually a good thing because everytime you go for another plate, you can expect hot and fresh food. I wasn't expecting that, but I'm surprised how good the food was, especially chicken pakora.

I never thought I would be writing this. I was in on 14/9/24 at 12.45pm. The starters of haggis vegetable and chicken pakora were burnt to a crisp. I ate what I could then took my plate up to waitress behind bar who then showed Zuzanna Bakalarova. No one came back to me to apologise. Disgusted and not sure if or when I will go back. Very poor. Your happy to take the money but ignore a complaint. Shocking.

Please train your staff, mostly the young girl with bleach blonde hair, to say excuse me and not push/barge past disabled and pregnant customers and then basically say “shut up” under her breath when they ask her to be careful, very inconsiderate and unprofessional, other than the miserable female staff at the bar also meal was alright enjoyable but probably won’t return as don’t feel safe or welcome after my last experience

Visited tonight for dinner. A little disappointed by the limited choice of starters but this was certainly not the case with main dishes. The grill provided lovely lamb chops and the teppinyaki grill was delicious. The chef was good and informative and gave great customer service. His knife juggling and fire showmanship certainly made my son smile. Thanks Chef!!!! Overall a satisfying experience.

There is a very good variety. And most of them were ok. However I do have to say that they have cut the deserts so freaking small that 3 or 4 pieces of brownie would actually equal a normal prownie slice that one would take. I really liked their pakora chicken though

If you like Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Carvery, or Pizza, they have it all! Too bad all of it is just bad. Badly cooked, badly flavoured, cheap food. Not worth the cost. You'd be much better going to literally any of the other food places in the food court or across the road. In response to owner's reply: regardless of so-called ingredient quality, the food was still awful in flavour and badly cooked. The chicken was tough and dry in every meal I tried, the beef in black bean sauce was disgusting in flavour, the fish had a texture like watery jelly, the pizzas looked and tasted like store-bought frozen pizzas (it would be hard to convince me that they aren't). It certainly came across as cheap quality, even though it cost around £15 per head (excluding drinks). That £15 would have been better spent in literally any other food place nearby. Left a buffet still hungry because neither me nor my partner could stomach any more of your extremely subpar food. You may have plenty of satisfied customers, but you also have plenty of dissatisfied ones, judging from the many other reviews saying the same thing. Perhaps instead of replying to negative reviews with just outright denial, you should actually take onboard some feedback and use it as an opportunity to improve. Says a lot about the attitude of management.

I was excited for this place after all the hype. Unfortunately, hype is all it was. All the staff looked miserable. The pizza was reminiscent of a cook at home pizza from the supermarket. All the meat was unbelievable dry and chewy. All that food and not one quality item. I've been to several different buffet places that cost a lot less with much higher quality. A complete dissapointment. Further to the reply from Hot Flame. There is no exaggeration here. Every pice of food I put in my mouth was sub standard vs the cost. Every piece of meat was dry and chewy. This review is to help possible customers make an informed choice. Also notice how your main focus was on my review of the food and nothing mentioned about the sub par customer service. Kudos.

I been on 6/8/24 at 6pm i had worst experience ever in my life 100% avoid this restaurant 2 point I just mention you 1) if your baby leave food they will come and tell you don’t take food if you need to leave two chicken pakora 2) you only allowed to have 1 chop stick per person in my case between me, my mrs and 3 sons had only allowed one chop stick And after all this when I decided to leave they asked me to pay otherwise they will call police My friend who was my guest from England he doesn’t want any hassle he negotiated n then pay half when all of us couldn’t even finish our starter We didn’t have main course & deserts and we paid half price which is really unfair It’s very poor service rude and food was ok not great but you won’t find smile on any staff faces AVOID AVOID AVOID 100% after reading your reply i added more 1) you refused to give a single chop to me that's why I left because if I can't have food there why would I stay there, I felt insulted which I mentioned to you guys repeatedly and offered you guys to come and see my table how many chops we had. I ask you two times to give me chops and you told me comeback in 5 minutes then I send my son to get it you said to him you going to bring on table then you did not . 2) you admitted we were having lamb chops which is starter I believe so, we have not even started a main course or desert so how come we had substantial amount of food. that's a lie 3) It was staff or manager who ever he approached my friend and said if you cant finish food, don't take it, you could see I had over 10, under 10 boy and 1 baby under 3 plus my friend who was my guest he had 5 years 3 years and 1 year old kids if kids don't want to eat your chicken nuggets we cant force them to eat an extra 2 chicken nuggets and it was an extra two nuggets. 4) About settling a bill, if this would be my restaurant I would apologize and offer free meal due to insulting behaviour with customers 5) your reply to this review are all just stories your side I wrote what I felt and aware others to avoid

STAY AWAY TERRIBLE FOOD! Terrible food and i mean terrible. Been a while back over a yesr ago and didn't like it. Went today to give it another chance was worst. Stale pizza, macaroni was like something you would get from £1 microwave meals. The food screamed iceland/farmfoods was absolutely terrible. Tried the chilli con carne I physically spat it out into a tissue. Never in my life have i done that. Very very bad even the chips were terrible and how can you go wrong with chips. Hot world cuisine in glasgow is where you want to go, if you want a good buffet with good quality fresh food. If you want overpriced frozen foods go to farmfoods and cook it yourself would save you alot of money. Will never attend again even if it was free for a whole year I would absolutely not go. Edited this as it doesn't let me reply: I absolutely do not work for your competitor. I dont think they need to leave reviews on your page. I wrote an honest review. This is really poor standard and food with regards to staff what was i supposed to say this its absolutely revolting and make a scene. With regards to staff not one smiled or were approachable so i don't think they will be disheartened by this. Your robbing the public for awful iceland food.

Food not the worst (typical buffet), ice machine broken, our table was in the middle of a busy walk way, place was overcrowded and the audacity to ask for a tip at the end is crazy. For what? We literally done all the leg work and even had to go to the till to pay, then the thing at the till tries to shame us for it. Not worth waiting in a queue for and certainly not value for money. Wouldn't recommend to people that want a nice quiet family meal.

We recently dined at Hot Flame and unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. Specifically, the lamb chop we ordered was served completely burnt, and the sushi was excessively salty. It was very disheartening to encounter such issues. While the overall atmosphere of the restaurant is nice, mistakes like this are unacceptable and also some of staf were really rude and with no smile on their face which doesn't make you feel comfortable. Apart from these issues other meals were good especiallay teppanyaki prawns.I hope they pay more attention to some foods

Food was okay the ribs where just all fat barely any meet. There was fatty gritty bits in the Chillie and the cakes and truffles made me boke but the staff make you feel so uncomfortable they all just stand there and stare at you while you get your food or while you’re eating it. It definitely makes us not want to go back when 3 waiters are just standing aside staring at us while we eat. We both noticed it and agreed it was uncomfortable. Not hard just train your staff to not stare people down as they eat it’s disturbing. NOT WORTH £27 EACH!!!

This place is absolute chaos! I have gone up 3 seperate occasions and come back with an almost empty plate. There's barely anything left, you can hardly move for the people. I thought I'd grab something from the hot grill section and got steak slices asked for medium rare and couldn't finish the meat because it was so tough. Almost had a panic attack while waiting due to the crowd. I'm usually a big lover of sushi but I was really unimpressed by the strange selection available. Didn't try Indian food as I didn't fancy curry, almost everything in the Chinese section has been finished both times I attempted to get something. I ended up with a couple of slices of crispy pork and a spoonful of rice, a little overcooked steak meat and a few pieces of sushi I didn't like. I didn't even go near the dessert bar. I'm usually quite positive in my reviews but this is crazy.

Soft drinks aren't cheap and great + it can take a while before an empty one is refilled - even tho multiple people ask for it. Same with desserts. Staff talking together in different languages while taking payment is rude and a red customer service flag for me. Same with card payments that pre-fill tips % and you have to swipe pages to not tip if you don't want to. Wouldn't recommend.

Excellent choice of food which is also of the highest quality. An empty plate won't sit on your table for long as staff are constantly clearing tables. All you can eat and drink for about £26 per person....don't get full too quickly 😄.

Has everything you could want even a robot that serves your drinks! The kids loved that! Food is fresh and good choice of items. Get the freshly made naans they are great! Dessert bar has a chocolate fountain and a ice cream soft serve machine. If they only made fresh steaks on the grill would I rate the food higher. Only thing I was disappointed with are the teppanyaki steaks and scallops. Scallops were tiny and overcooked, as well as the teppanyaki steak.

Eat all you want buffet banquet cuisine. Lots of choice of hot and cold food. From Indian Chinese, continental, traditional Sunday ham and Yorkshire puds. Delicious deserts, apple crumble, sponge cakes, custard and lashings of ice cream. Reasonably priced to pricey. 4 people about £100 all in. 24hr in advance booking required or turn up to be seated on quieter evenings.

I wasn't that impressed with the pizza. It didnt have much of a tomato base coating and was dry and wasn't the best.

Very tired hotel. Not what I would expect from Premier Inn. Needs a refurb. The first room I was given, smelt of cigarette smoke. Complained and was given another room. Convenient location but noise from the motorway is intrusive. Staff in adjacent Beefeater pub were very attentive. Food was average though.

Previously I gave this a 5 star but the lack of consistency means it's just above average. The menu is outdated- for example I asked to have the chowmein with the happy meal to which the lady on the phone said they don't do despite it being on their menu. The food has also been a hit or a miss depending on when or what you order. Old review- The meat was really fresh in the items we ordered and everything tasted delicious (we ordered crispy shredded beef and kung pao chicken)! The portions were generous and the prices very reasonable! Only slight improvement is that it would be nice to be able to order online for collection rather than over the phone. This will be our new regular Chinese takeaway.
