With the price you're paying, the food is actually quite decent. Usually, buffets have mid tasting food all around, but surprisingly, this one does not. I'd definitely recommend this for an affordable and nice meal.

All you can eat for £15! Everything that we tried tasted very good. There's loads of choice. Ribs were fantastic. Staff were pleasant and helpful, although obviously do not expect high-end hospitality at such an establishment. The fish tank is fantastic

The buffet selection was great and freshly made (while I was there several dishes were being set out). I was grateful for the salad bar but the drinks selection could be more varied as soft drinks (bottles or soda version) is a bit limited. Overall, the food tasted good and I ended up having two plates

This used to be one of my favourite places “All you can eat” in London, but the prices have been going up a lot lately and not just once or twice, it’s happened multiple times. Is that even legal? Lol On top of that, they only accept cash now? That’s super annoying . The food deserve 5 stars as is still great, but I’m really disappointed they got rid of the ice cream machine. The staff isn’t very friendly or welcoming either , the vibe always feels tense, not cordial.

A bit pricey , but the food was good. The ribs, the Singapore style noodles, vegetarian noodles,lovely! Absolutely loved the food, but I don’t think it’s very vegetarian friendly or allergy friendly. I could see people using the same utensils for shellfood and chicken, for vegetarian and meat options, etc. The seating is also okay but is a bit congested if the place is full. Upstairs is lovely to be seated and way less noisy.

Buffet food isn't the best I actually ate lots of vegetables 😅 But for what you pay and the option of unlimited drink. Times are hard to fill your belly if I was you wait till fresh chicken balls come out. Remove the batter and pile broccoli steamed veg with noodles 😜😏 If you're looking at the prawns before you enter 🤢 I won't go there 😜 Staff look they are just waiting for you to leave lol

I have some mixed feelings about Max Orient in Camden. On one hand, it is great value for money considering it is a buffet but on the other hand, the food quality and variety did not quite meet my expectations. The food selection was more limited than I expected. While there were some solid options, I felt like there could have been more variety for different taste preferences. That being said, the sweet and sour pork was the highlight for me. It was flavourful and well cooked. However, one major deal breaker was the batter on the chicken balls and banana fritters. It did not taste fresh at all. It was so hard that we could barely bite into it which was really disappointing. Because of this, we avoided many of the battered dishes altogether. A little improvement in this area would make a big difference. One thing to keep in mind is that they only accept cash, which can be inconvenient if you are someone that does not keep cash. Luckily, they do have an ATM inside but it is always good to be prepared. On a positive note, the staff were nice to us and the restaurant itself has a nice aesthetic. It is comfortable and well presented with a cosy feel to it. If they could work on refining some areas of their food, especially the battered items, it would be a much better experience overall. All in all, it was a decent experience for the price but it wouldn't be my first choice for a buffet in London. It's an okay spot if you are in the area and want an affordable all you can eat option, but I would say manage your expectations.

The food option is not as big as we thought it would be. Kind of disapponting but its only 15 so its fine. The desserts are really bad. The meat here isnt that good its quantity over quality and you can genuily taste that

Absolutely wonderful restaurant!!! We tried it for the first time as I went with my two daughters. What a superb choice of buffet foods, to the point it’s overwhelming in how to decide what to have on your plate first :-) Although the great thing is that you can eat as much as you like (making it even more value for money) total quality and such a lovely atmosphere too. My daughters & me loved the layout of the restaurant and the serene Chinese music playing softly in the background makes this one’s of the best eat as much buffets I’ve been to in years.

A Extremely poor excuse for a Chinese restaura. This was the worst Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. Noodles and rice 4 styles all bland flavourless. Prawns tasted over cooked and were unclean. Meat dishes rubbish it was like dog food, dry meats in sauce, imagine there’s not even no prawn toast… it was eat as much as you like but in all fairness I didn’t even want to eat the first plate I put that’s how shockingly bad it tasted. On a better note the broccoli was quite nice but again very plain and bland

The worst buffet of my life. Obviously at a buffet I don't expect delicacies, but I do expect a minimum, which is that the food is good. Not only is everything terrible, but there are things that taste like they have been made for decades. Don't come, it's cheap but it's very expensive.

Came here today with my children for what we thought would be a lovely meal out. It was anything but that, first of all I had to pay adult price for my eldest son who's 10 their response is we start adult prices from that age which is ridiculous, then the staff tried adding in drinks I didn't order, they took forever to bring my children their drinks, The food tasted as if it had been reheated and the ridiculous signs around the restaurant especially the one of not having your own drinks, I'm sorry but if I've got children I'm not going to pay ridiculous prices to keep buying them drinks. This whole experience cost a stupid fortune for something not worth it.

I have never in my life come across such rude staff! Visited there today with my Son, Daughter and Daughter in law. Never again. My Son didn't end up eating anything and thought the food was awful and we were in shock by how rude the staff was. No manners whatsoever. Especially the woman behind the till. I would feel embarrassed if any of my family were ever as rude as they were. Why would you behave in this way towards customers visiting your business? Not even the soft drinks machine worked correctly. Coke was actually flat lemonade My advice is to stay away!!

Quite okay in itself. It costs 14.99 (Feb. 2025). We were there right at 12 o'clock when it opened. The food was fresh and also very tasty. You can save on the soft drinks, but the flat rate isn't worth it. Important to know: Cash payment only! But there is still an ATM in the restaurant.

Absolutely disgusting place to eat, over priced too! We were sat up stairs, having to carry food and drink upstairs each time, sat on a table with another couple, when we asked to move the staff were very rude, when asked for a refund they point blank refused. Food was freezing cold, by the time we got what we wanted and sat down upstairs to eat. Whilst getting food and to our seat we were pushed out of the way multiple times by members off staff with no apologies. Avoid this place at all costs 🙃

We ate here because compared to other All You Can Eat in London especially in Chinatown they have a little more variety, but unfortunately in general it was very, very disappointing. The chicken (chicken pepper) was very tough, the broccoli and carrots were covered in a strange jelly and tasted awful, the veggie rolls were not good at all, the rings were rubbery. The only one that survived was the chicken sweet and sour. £14.9 each excluding drinks it's definitely not worth it despite the good price compared to its competitors and what's more I was sick about 40 minutes later with severe diarrhea and my fiancée also had the same problem. We don't recommend it and will never go there again. The worst All You Can Eat ever since this formula existed.

The food here was truly disappointing—dry, tasteless, and so tough it was almost inedible. Some dishes were so dried out they could practically be considered a safety hazard. To make matters worse, the hygiene standards were lacking. The gents’ bathroom door wouldn’t lock, and the tap only produced a slow trickle of cold water. Adding to the poor experience, one of the staff members (the person in the picture) was incredibly rude, aggressive, and had a shockingly obnoxious attitude towards customers, even bordering on abusive. Overall, a terrible experience I would not recommend.

Gone are the days when this place was good. We have been coming to the Buffett 8years when it was £8:95 3 years ago the food was better after today probly the last time not much choice and becoming a bit tasteless oily. It used to be great now just rubbish. I Brang ppl from abroad and they where like this is ver very low quality and I was eating 2 plates and they where watching me and I realised it’s a rubbish we are just use to it. But the variety has become so basic not with £15. Only worth around £5 for the quality. No wonder the reviews are getting worse. They lets us in at 9-15 with just left over rubbish. A few times in the pass they have tried to say something but they just bark don’t be afraid to make the staff who work their sit down and obey when they are rude.

My family loves chinese food. To be honest, we were disappointed. Food is dry and a bit tasteless, really. My wife said the beef was chewy and had no flavour. I tried it and she was right. She had a salad and said that was the best food there. Who goes to a chinese restaurant and resorts to having a salad!? What does one expect from an £15 all you can eat buffet. It will fill you up for sure if that's all you need. The place is ok. Not wonderful. Overall, we will not go there again, even if we are ravenous. My family loves Chinese food.

I never leave negative reviews, usually just keep them to myself, but this one had to be given. We have visited yesterday and this was the worst chinese of our lives. The positive reviews are probably from those who have never been to a Chinese buffet before and so have nothing to compare it to, but the whole experience was awful. The food was definitely not tasty, luke warm, and very salty. Not much to choose from either. Very very limited choices. I have asked for tap water for the table and got a very cold look and ended not drinking it, because the jug was dirty, it had black dirt around the edges. When I was adding food to my plate the second time ( as its an all you can eat buffet), one of the waitresses kept looking at my plate and it felt very judgy. Dessert is basically non existent. Tasteless horrible coconut jelly and very very thin cheap Swiss roll. You have to pay before you eat which is probably why, cause the experience is so bad you feel horrible for wasting your money here. Also they clearly don't trust their customers. Usually you always pay after at chinese buffets. The food was so awful that we were actually worried if we will get food poisoning. The plates were not collected from our table, we had to sit and eat around dirty dishes, in other restaurants they collect your plates almost straight away. The toilets don't have a clear toilet sign, you have to guess if you are going to the right direction until you get there. Definitely will never go back and do not recommend to anyone. There are so many other options to eat at Camden, just go literally anywhere else.

La comida se veía deliciosa y sabía bien. Barato para un restaurante todo lo que pueda comer. Uno de los miembros del personal estaba actuando raro mirando a los peces mucho. El tipo revisó el agua, que estaba bien e hizo fotos de la pecera. Otro personal me dio un pañuelo de papel sin que yo pidiera uno porque me vio comer con los dedos y tener un pañuelo sucio, que estaba bien. Los platos están en el lado pequeño, pero vi señales que decían algo sobre desperdiciar comida. Así que supongo que esa es la razón por la que eligieron platos pequeños, que es una razón suficientemente buena para mí. Me gustó el interior. No era realmente interior chino para mí, pero definitivamente me hizo pensar en Asia y me hizo sentir un poco nostalgia. Porque soy mitad asiática.

Went into this restaurant for a quick lunch before our trip home. If you just want soft drinks they give you a glass you can refill as much as like during your stay. The meals were a variety of meat such as chicken and lamb with rice or noodles, various seafood dishes were also available such as mussels. The food was mainly lukewarm which was ok for me. If you just want a quick unpretentious meal for not much money this is fine. Only accepted cash when we visited.

Du coup, si on est un adulte mais petit, on paie le prix kid ? Panneau trompeur, il faut indiquer -1,30m = half price et enlever le terme KID. 2) Ils ne prennent pas la CB mais uniquement du Cash.

What a load of old slop, curry like water ,cold hard chips, soft prawn crackers ,meat you couldn't identify, dirty place full of cobwebs ,seen a woman worker mess around with a boy working pinching his skin with some of the tongues used to pick the food up,they both denied it when we complained and asked for a refund , oh and as for the Deserts it was a cheap Swiss roll cut into the thinest pieces I've ever seen God knows how they managed to do it . Signs state no food wastage, well our table was full of it because we couldn't or dare not eat it , 4 of us went but they would only refund for 1 person

Hey foodie! This place is not that great with the food option, but definitely worth trying once. I mean the only choices that I liked were crispy fried chicken chicken, vermicelli noodles and egg fried rice. That’s it. And, even if you try to eat most of the food, you won’t be able to finish 5 pieces of chicken, whereas generally an adult is able to eat 6 pieces with no complaints. Usually some buffets do add sodium bicarbonate to their food, but I am unsure about this place. Moreover, anything once or in moderate is fine. Also, not to mention that the ambiance is good for Camden Town. P.S.: Try the shrimp with the mussels’ sauce Safe eating!

Just saw the 3 star hygiene rating wow.Cash payment was demanded as soon as we walked in by an abrupt rude man. The food was very poor quality. Chicken curry was full of onions a watery, ribs were sparse, veg was mush, desert was jelly squares and cardboard like thin slices of Swiss roll.Staff were totally uninterested. Atmosphere was nil.very disappointing experience, regret spending my money here and now see a very poor 3 star hygiene rating. Won’t be back.

This is a Chinese buffet restaurant. Charges 13.99 per adult. And 9.99 for kids less than 130cm. We paid for 4 adults as our 2 kids were taller than their mom. Food is average and some food items above average. They had prawns, chicken, mussels, beef, pork, duck items in non veg. Mushroom, broccoli, tofu vegetables, French fries in vegetarian.2 soups. Unlimited sparkly drinks at 3.99 (we had to take a minimum of 2). I think sparkly drinks were a bit diluted. Beef with black beans, chicken wings, mushroom , sweet corn soup, duck were good. If u like cooked prawns and mussels with intense lemon grass flavour, u can go for it also. They serve deserts also, which was not that good in taste

Food not great.. "Chicken Seaseme Toast??" Bland, no Salt and Pepper on the SALT and PEPPER CHICKEN. Limited tables, had to walk up and down a set of stairs to plate up. Wouldnt waste your lunch here with the quality of food Camden has to offer elsewhere. Real shame.

If you have never been before in a Chinese buffet, maybe it's OK for the first time. BUT if you have been before, you will be very disappointed. Food is awful absolutely, even if it's not too much you can choose, rice noodles overcooked, meat just pork some beef and wings some brocoli and mostly spring rolls and ect. No words how bad it was

The worst Chinese restaurant I have ever been to. Not many options as a buffet and the quality wasn’t good, actually the food was awful. Not clean and hygiene is zero. The food was even under average and tasteless. As a Londoner tried many Chinese buffet and there are many good one in London but this one for the first and last time I tried. Don’t waste your money there.

Best Value in London if want to drink 2 soft drinks with your meal. Delicious food Lot of variety including vegetarian options and dessert. I am disabled and a blue badge holder I can not fault the staff they helped me before I could ask for assistance I live near China Town and have been to every buffet there. My local favourite is slightly more expensive but before today it was my favourite place to eat Chinese food 😋

The food is disgusting, I am a lover of Chinese food and this is without a doubt the worst, you ask them for “tap water” and they have the nerve to tell you that it will make you vomit, and what makes you want to vomit is what they serve you, Furthermore, there is little variety. The duck is anything but duck, it looks like spoiled tofu, the meat doesn't even taste like meat. I don't recommend it AT ALL.

Nice interior and service but the food is way oily salty and with much vinegar so that you don't eat a lot. Overall bad experience

The only good thing about the place is that you can eat a lot for a “low” price but the quality of the food is not recommended.

Every time I visit the British Museum, I always go to Treasure Canteen "Hunanese" to have a hot dinner to rejuvenate my energy. The chef is a local chef from Hunan, and he understands us spicy lovers very well🥵Every spoonful of chopped pepper is so sour that it hits the soul. Mainly because it tastes so much like home. ··· Tried and tested menu👇 🥢 Cold Jellyfish £9.8 The crispy jellyfish is covered in garlic-flavored red oil, and the spicy and sour sauce is sprinkled with fried peanuts and chopped green onion. It’s so appetizing🤤 🫑Stir-fried pork ribs with green pepper £13.8 One word: dinner! Stir-fried pork cheek with Hunan screw pepper, the oily aroma is mixed with the burnt aroma and spiciness. The sauce is great with rice. 🍖Lamb chops £18.8 Simmer until the bones are soft and glutinous, add cumin and chili powder to remove the mutton, and eat the meat with all the tendons. Show off while it’s hot! As it cools down, it loses its amazing feeling. 🫛Stir-fried green beans £12.8 The wok is full of energy! The tiger skin is fried out of the green beans and then stir-fried. The oil is bright but not greasy, crisp and tender with a hint of burnt aroma. 🍚 Sauerkraut fried rice £6.8 The boss said the secret to moistness is lard residue! Pickled cabbage cubes + chopped eggs + chopped green onion, every grain of rice is covered with oily fragrance, which is very delicious. 🦑Griddle cuttlefish £21.8 If you like spicy and sour food, don’t miss it! Pickled pepper + wild mountain pepper are sour and refreshing, and the cuttlefish is chewy~
