Mr Basrai's in South Ayrshire

Food was good from starters to. Main to desert and the staff very attentive nothing was a bother to them would recommend 😋😋😋

One of the best world buffet restaurants we have been. The staff are amazing, so helpful and the food was so fresh and tasty. They had wide variety of most of the cuisine. We enjoyed all the starters and to pick the Lamb rogan josh and butter naan was excellent.

Amazing food and a great variety. Will go again. Family absolutely loved it. Great place to go as its relaxing and friendly.

Choice of food at lunch is not the greatest, but plenty enough to find something you like. Having some on-demand kitchen at lunch was nice. Curries were the best part.

First time visit, and will be back! Lovely food and a great selection 👌 Chilled environment and staff are amazing!

Staff are always welcoming. Good choices of food and drinks.

If you love the thrill of a culinary adventure but also want the comfort of knowing you can grab another plate (or five), Mr. Basrai’s World Cuisines is your buffet paradise. The experience is set up like a global food expedition—starting with a drink to quench your thirst, followed by a journey through the buffet filled with an array of international flavors. Whether you’re craving spicy, savory, or sweet, there’s something to satisfy every taste bud. The live cooking stations add a touch of excitement, letting you customize your dishes just the way you like them. And let’s not forget dessert! The menu playfully suggests saving “Room for a Sweet Tooth (smile),” and trust me, you’ll need it. From homemade treats to everyone’s favorite ice creams, it’s the perfect way to round off a feast. Overall, Mr. Basrai’s offers a fun, interactive dining experience with plenty of variety. Just be warned: your willpower might not survive the buffet temptation! When in Ayr I highly recommend this amazing buffet restaurant.

Absolutely fantastic! Great food, good selection, amazing quality. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommended! You will not be disappointed!

Been couple of times. Manager has always welcomed us in and staff come by regularly to check for drinks and that everything is up to scratch. Will be going back.

Visited on a Thursday lunchtime. All good was very good and the staff super nice. Would definitely visit again.

Very enjoyable meal. Great selection. As a group of 14 there was something for everyone.

Should have known better first step into restaurant, but we decided to stay food was disgusting, waste of money. Food was on display for far to long, chicken was like a pea green soup. Highly disappointing, not like the Mr Basrais in Glasgow, our clothes were absolutely stinking of food fumes. Never again

Friendly attentive staff, amazing choice of food, something for everyone.. nothing was too much trouble.. We can definitely reccomend this restaurant for families and will be returning..

It was a great experience, the staff were really welcoming, the atmosphere great and the service was awesome.

Been to several of these "all you can eat" buffets and I can honestly say this was one of the best. Some reviews say the food isn't quite good enough and or cold, we didn't find that. We did go at the start of the sitting so it was all fresh. A few things aren't available at lunch, but to be expected as it's a lot cheaper and great value for money.

My first time here was last night. All of the food was delicious and the servers were all very friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and can’t wait to come back!

Looked nothing like what I ordered on the app. Salt and pepper chips weren’t seasoned at all. Half the food was mush. If I wanted dog food I would have went to pets at home. I would love a refund

Absolutely fantastic as always, both the tasty food and friendly, can't do enough for you service. We will be back very soon.

Celebrated my 50th birthday lunch with my family and surprised by cake. Lovely touch x

Very nice experience, amazing food and great customer service would highly recommend.

Great food, really good staff, very clean,, definitely be going back

Great place brilliant fresh food highly recommend. Staff are friendly as well.

Great food! Lovely staff team! Great experience. I always enjoy eating here. The food is stunning, and has a wide variety, of which I will never be bored of. The desserts are top notch, and the ice cream is unlike anything I’ve ever had.

Excellent value for money, fantastic service, the staff couldn't be more helpful. Food is quite good especially the freshly cooked stuff and it's cooked the way you want it. Wide variety of dishes for all tastes so everybody is happy. Overall a great experience.

Staff are all very courteous and attentive. I enjoy the buffet lunch so much that I come 2 times in 2 weeks! I'm heavily pregnant. The staff let me choose between a booth or a table that I find most comfortable. There are stir fry, taco & pasta stations that freshly made per your order. It takes normally 5-10mins to prepare and they'll bring the food to the table, so you don't have to stand there waiting. Lunch buffet has lesser food items than dinner buffet, but there's more than plenty to fill your stomach with yummy food. I recommend sushis, lamb curry, spicy chicken wings, calamari rings, crab claws, naan breads, garlic pizza, fry noodles with vegs at the wok station, risotto & carbonara. I enjoy the crème brulee, blueberry cheesecake & walnut brownie for dessert.

A lovely relaxing afternoon. Great food choices and the staff were very pleasant and helpful Anita was lovely. 10/10.

Food was great, very calm, staff were so lovely and willing to help

Fantastic place to eat. Food was amazing and the staff very friendly and helpful. Would really recommend

Ordered the Chinese munchie box showed up without any spicy chicken wings and no ribs and my honey pepper chips are missing as well 38 quid for the worst food ever

Love love love this place in ayr

Was here on Wednesday night for a birthday dinner, amazing service and amazing food. Everything was freshly made and re filled, also had an amazing steak and pasta made fresh! 100% recommend

Very good experience at Mr basrais Finally I found halal buffet in ayr. Very amazing food and services.

We were in as a party of 10 for mine and my sons birthday and everything was top class. From the second we walked in we were treated so well. The staff were amazing. My grandson is 8 months old and got the same treatment. Was a great birthday treat. We will be back!!

Post Xmas family meal with 2 toddlers and 6 Adults. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The place was very clean. The choice of food was excellent. In our group we had 1 vegan, 1 vegetarian, 2 people needing Halal and 2 meat eaters All of us had plenty of choice. I'm told the meat was excellent. I had plenty of options as a vegan. The range of food was excellent, all the serving dishes are small which is good as the replenish constantly which means the food is fresh and hot in the serving dishes. They have a large range of cooked to order options. Which when ordered were brought to our table when ready. At £17.99 per person it's very good value BUT we had not realised that they have a special offer on for January of 2 for 1 Monday to friday. So our table or 6 Adults and 2 toddlers only paid for 3 adults ( under 3s are free) plus all the drinks. Astonishing value.

Had a lovely lunch at the 2 for 1 buffet today. Food was amazing, staff were very friendly and the restaurant is lovely. Thank you and we will be back 😊

food was outstanding perfect service, is my birthday and came out with a cake and put happy birthday on couldn’t ask for a better place to eat

I recently dined at Mr. Basrai's World Cuisine in Ayr, and it was a delightful experience! The variety of dishes offered is truly impressive, with a diverse selection of cuisines from around the world. The food was fresh and flavorful, catering to a range of tastes and preferences. I found the Indian food section to be slightly underwhelming. The selection was decent, but some of the dishes lacked the bold and authentic flavors typically associated with Indian cuisine. For example, the curries were milder than expected, and the naan bread was a bit too chewy for my liking. That said, the food was still fresh, and the presentation was appealing. If the Indian offerings could be a bit more vibrant and true to traditional flavors, it would greatly enhance the experience. It's a good place overall, but there’s room for improvement in this particular area. They are running buy 1 get 1 free for the month of January 2025.

Had a great lunch here with my daughter and her son .

Brilliant food and all the staff are friendly and make you feel very welcome

This is a beautiful restaurant, the staff are incredibly friendly and the food is outstanding. The dishes are always well presented and topped up regularly. Food can be made to order right in front of you! From Tacos to Teppanyaki their live food stations are well varied. We have been on multiple occasions and nothing is ever too much! Have a member of the group with a birthday? Let them know, a mini cake with candle and happy birthday calligraphed on the plate, alongside music and singing. The children's faces always light up when they sing with you. I'd recommend you try both lunch and evening menus for the full Basrai's experience. Refillable drinks, cocktails, tea, coffee etc. Great for a treat for the children with the options of chicken nuggets, chips, pasta, ice-cream and a chocolate fountain. What's not to love? We highly recommend Mr.Basrai's 😊

Food was excellent and great customer service.

Food stone cold when it eventually did arrive

Every thing is amazing staff are nice

Been here many times over the years, it's changed hands a few times but we always enjoy the food. Staff are friendly and polite too. Today's visit was to celebrate my daughters 18th birthday and she was surprised with a cake and candle and a cocktail. We can't thank them enough! Edit to add. We visited again today (23/12/24) and again, amazing food. Our server was lovely and apologized for taking a little while to clear plates but she needn't have worried, we knew she was busy and it was absolutely fine!

I recently enjoyed a fantastic multi-cuisine buffet with crispy dosas, fresh salads, pizzas, and a chocolate brownie. Special thanks to Dhwani for her warm and attentive service, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

Great service, food was very tasty and the cocktails were amazing

Very friendly staff! Lush food 🥰

Very nice staff and good food for good price

Food was great and staff were very attentive and friendly

Would give a zero if I could !! Went as a group of 12 on a Saturday at 5pm the food was not edible no one could eat anything the food was stale obviously still from lunch, cold soggy Yorkshire puddings stale chips that had been sitting a while. Half of the dishes were empty so very limited choice. Hardly anny choice for kids either. Our group ended up walking out and went else where to eat as no one could eat anything proper. Would not recommend !!!

Me and my partner love Mr Basrai's and will always come back food is absolutely brilliant serves out standing also does Sunday roast witch is delicious

Delicious food and good variety buffet. Service excellent.

Absolutely disgusting place hardly any food place felt damp and disgusting and the food that was out definitely wasn’t edible! We had to walk out and go somewhere else for food that’s how bad the place was this place definitely isn’t what it used to be the male staff that came over to our table was helpful and even agreed that the food was disguising There was 12 of us in for food and out of the 12 people only 2 were able to eat and that was the kids chicken nuggets We usually go to the buffet at Kilmarnock and food is always filled to the brim and fresh this place we will definitely be avoiding! If you want fantastic fresh Indian food AYR INDIA is the best place to go Avoid this place at all cost

food too spicy and cold. I asked for a refund and they told me to contact justeat.

Nice decor, friendly attentive staff. Food is edible but lacking any real flavor and some of the dishes tasted weird. Im no longer hungry so I suppose it did its job but would struggle to come back here. The competition buffet restaurants only a few miles away are a lot better for the same kind of money.

The most wonderful place to spend time with family or friends. Brilliant service, excellent fresh food and goes out of the way to make if any other choices too. We always love going to Mr.Basrais n love to tell our family n friends further . Thanks to all the staff 🙌

Visited for the first time in years last week and the food was incredible, owner visited our table and was incredibly friendly and even made us fresh, different dishes that weren't out on the buffet for us to try. Really good value, and will be back again soon!

For £12.99, the weekday lunch buffet was a steal. It’s a great place for a fuss-free lunch fix on days when you feel like having a little bit of everything. I enjoyed the naan and butter chicken the most, and I appreciate the live station where you get to have certain items cooked on request. The staff were really friendly and attentive. Very convenient location in the middle of town too. Will be back next time I’m feeling hungry in Ayr.

Loved it, chicken tikka was amazing

Always a great place to eat. Highly recommend!

Always great. We love to go for lunch. All you can eat and all you can drink (soft drinks of course) for a reasonable price. Will be back.

We called in for lunch on our way back to the boat from Edinburgh on a Saturday. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. There seemed to be a great range of food, although we didn't get to try all of it what we did have was nice - I particularly liked the noodle bar and the dessert section. It was quiet which I didn't expect on a Saturday afternoon but I assume there is a larger offering in the evening. If passing through again we will come back.

First visit, food choice excellent, service fantastic. Lovely restaurant, very clean. Only down side was listening to a man complain, after him and his family complained after going back for seconds at least 3 times. He was verbally abusive to the staff, whom in my opinion were lovely and very attentive. Clearly he was at it!! We will defo be back :-)

Food was absolutely delicious and staff were very kind and friendly would 100% recommend

the food was not good, there are very few dishes and they are all tasteless. we didn't like anything. the people are ok. the best buffet is hot cuisine paisley road.

Had to call restaurant about my delivery it was not very warm when it arrived

Very quiet when we arrived , very friendly and attentive staff. Plenty of choice

Wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Didn't enjoy the food and choices for the more discerning tastes was limited. Wouldn't recommend it and wouldn't go back..

Restaurant is extremely clean. Great choice of food that suited everyone in our groups tastes

Very tasty and very good value. Extremely friendly and helpful staff.

Thoroughly enjoyable restaurant to eat with friends and family.Good atmosphere,clean, friendly and very welcoming.My favourite place in Ayr to eat .

It's one of the best restaurant in Ayr.

I came here as recommended. Not once in the 1.5 hours I spent here was the buffet filled with the popular dishes. I thought that the deserts would be better but only scraps were left. Didn't think it was particularly clean either. On the up side beer was OK. And the Mrs enjoyed the overpriced prosecco. I would avoid at all costs if you actually value your stomach

Fantastic place for all you can eat buffet. Kid friendly too and great range of food for the fussiest eaters. Food very tasty and hot. Lots of choice. Service great and staff friendly. Would 100% recommend.

Fantastic place for all you can eat buffet. Great place for kids too. Great service from all staff. Would recommend visiting.

First time visiting here today. Excellent experience. Plentiful selection of well cooked food to choose from, very attentive service from the moment we walked in. We were a party of 9 and all thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. We will be back! Thanks for lovely dining experience.

Great selection of food to suit everyone including our small niece. Food was great and service was great. Will certainly be back.

staff extremely friendly and food is very tasty, would absolutely recommend for a nice lunch or dinner out

Food was good. Staff happy to make you items fresh. Staff very friendly and attentive.

Food was cold. Chicken pakora and roast beef too tough to eat. Indian Curries were good. Chinese Fried rice not great. Chicken noodle soup was nothing short of AWFUL! Desserts were nice. Toilets were disgusting. Waiter was great.

Book a party of 12 for 6pm Arrived early and greeted with a smile and a helpful Member of staff to sit us down and take some photos. Went through what we had to do and asked if anything we need . Staff attentive food amazing quality and taste and reasonable prices on my nice visit I will be here . Beautiful decorated also stunning very clean. Can’t say enough good word an about it .

Took the kids for dinner while away on holiday. Brillant food and staff made us feel really welcome

I was on 22sec of October the food was amazing the staff were nice and friendly and welcoming I highly recommend Al be going back again

Fantastic warm welcome from the staff food was lovely and fresh with a great selection great place and price for lunch with friends

Staff were incredibly welcoming. We are staying at Craig Tara and it only took 10 minutes to get there. Parked in car park next to it. Service and food were amazing from start to finish. Vast choice of food made it easy to cater for the whole family.

Came into here not thinking much but it was amazing food was fresh waiters were lovely

Great place for something to eat and drink. Plenty to choose from. Prices were great and no rush to hurry up

I've been here for the past 10 or so years now and it never disappoints, however, my trip here yesterday was absolutely phenomenal. The staff were fantastic, attentive and friendly, I can honestly say that they love working there and they seemed to be very passionate about the food and chefs.

We visited for a Birthday Dinner. We chose her so that everyone would find something they enjoyed. We were not disappointed! The restaurant was clean and the staff were all friendly and helpful. The range of food was from British to Italian and Asian, all absolutely delicious. Our used plates were swiftly removed, empty food dishes were refilled quickly and there were always plenty of fresh warm plates and clean cutlery. As it was a birthday meal they surprised birthday girl with a piece of cake with a candle and Happy Birthday playing! (I did give advance notice!!) Seriously though, give them a visit, you will enjoy the food and atmosphere. We will be back soon 😊

Lovely friendly staff. The food is gorgeous. We came for a birthday meal and the birthday girl was surprised with a piece of cake with a candle, plus they played happy birthday. Our used plates were taken away swiftly. The selection of foods range from British through Italian and Asian palates, with a delicious selection of deserts. We will definitely be back 😊

Great Variety, Quality, and Service Me Basrai offers an impressive variety of dishes, from fresh seafood to delicious desserts, all of exceptional quality. The live cooking stations were a highlight, with chefs preparing fresh meals on the spot. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring a smooth dining experience. Overall, a fantastic place to enjoy a wide range of flavors—highly recommended! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

Absolutely beautiful place to dine, food was delicious, presentation first class. Every body so helpful at reasonable price. Certainly will be back.
