Panda Mami in York

Just been for lunch time. Food was cold and all the cakes stale. The flooring was slippery and greasy. No fresh food brought out Not working the 46 pounds for 3 people

This is my second time here and the selections still overwhelms me. I mostly chose sea food as they are really nice. I love the calamari from teppanyaki section. They also serve sashimi and squid salad 🥰 and of course they have various desserts to choose from. I think I had sugar rush. They also offer free coffee 😉

I have dinner in panda mami in Sunday. The taste of food is good. And there are almost 20 kinds of food I can choose. By the way, Anna, abi, pinch and jack provide me a very good service.

Visited on an evening in the week and it was quiet. Huge selection. Some of the food could have been fresher. Recommend visiting when busier as I’m sure the turnover would be quicker.

Greate service and friendly staff. Lovely time with(Anna , Abi , Pinch and Jake.)

The food test the same very salty and cold waste of money dirty plates.

We came to York especially to try panda mami and it didn't disappoint. Lovely food with a great selection.

Very helpful star abi, we like her. The food is nice

The restaurant is very nice. Abi is so amazing. She is so friendly.

Abi is excellent we enjoyed tonight

Absolutely lovely lunch time meal very good and service very good especially Abi was very helpful.

Great food everything was fresh

Atmosphere was amazing. Food was great. Avi and Namrata were great servers, showing us to our seats and explaining everything and making it all clear and staight forward for us, especially Avi. Highly recommend this place

Great food and friendly staff, server named Namrata was especially friendly, I would definitely return.

Been to this place a few times now. Travel from Wakefield once a month it's that good. Namrata served us today and was fantastic. Very polite and very efficient. Looking forward to the next visit

The food is ok. Abi assists us very well in this restaurant. We enjoyed the food so much. Till next time.

Great selection of food! Anna was a great host!

Absolutely loved it here. The food is lovely and fresh, the staff are all very polite friendly and welcoming, namrata looked after us today she was amazing. Would come again

Food was great. Abi took great care of us.

A real gem for those who like to try something different. Something to please all tastes.

We have been in this restaurant more than a dozen times. Too many selection of food and they taste good. Value for money. Staff are friendly. Photos are just for this one particular day with my husband.

Excellent. Abi is excellent for customer service and very accommodating. Ambiant is good; lots of food. We were so happy to be in here... Highly recommended.FREE coffee..😊😊

Elisabeth our server was efficient, helpful and polite - food was tasty and in vast supply, spoilt for choice and would recommend.

Amber was amazing lady She made sure we are well looked after

Everything was great. I am very much satisfied. Amber was very accommodating and exceptional. We’ll definitely come back.

We love the variety of food tgey serve and the price is very afforda le. Highly recoomended then place

Very attentive service! Kudos to Amber! Give her a raise~ ❤ Food is very satisfactory! As you can see my faves are hongkong noodles, baked mussels, garlic mushroom, beef curry! It's worth the price. The restaurant is quite spacious and well lit~ music is not too loud.

First time to eat here and we really enjoyed it loads of dishes to choose from. The staff are ver friendly and accommodating especially Amber she manage to ask what we need Great service and Delicious food

Good food and plenty to choose from. The coffee was fab and we had a great laugh with the staff!

The food is actually insaine, it's the best buffet I've ever been to, really great veggie options too, definitely recommend.

Typical Aisian buffet with a good variety of choice and as much as you can eat. Some of the food could have been a bit warmer but was all tasty and enjoyable none the less. Certainly a decent option on a busy York Sunday!

So love it.. Thanks to Namrata for the good service..

I really love this place, good food, a lot of variety to choose from. Wonderful service as always, especially one of their staff named "Namrata". She is very polite and always willing to help. 👌👏👍

Excellent service great food highly recommend

Always a go to when in York, really good buffet food and great service, Namrata especially was very helpful and friendly.

Only 4 stars as some food was not available and the service was a bit slow. The food was good but not as great as it was when we visited 2 years ago. Reccomend for hungry lovers of all around the worlds food.

Nice selection of food. Family friendly environment and attentive team, especially Namrata. We thoroughly enjoyed the dinner here on our last day visiting York.

Food was great! Amber was friendly. Had a great time :)

Came here for lunch. We were greeted by friendly staff with a smile named Abi. Sat us beside the window and showed us around. Great selection of food with great taste. Different foods from around the world. They have bar to have meat grilled. Celebrated my birthday here, very considerate of my wish of me not wanting to be sang to. Nice of them to hand me a slice of choco cake with firework candle. Thanks Abi for this nice experience!

Came to eat variety of food, ate a lot and was satisfied. Nothing more, nothing less. You get what you see

Staff very friendly, amazing food (some even cooked to order, kitchen staff ring a bell once it’s done) great customer service, staff member named Elizabeth was extremely helpful and constantly asked us if we needed anymore drinks so we didn’t run out. Wide variety of food, amazing concept. Staff clear the tables for you so you can focus on eating and enjoy yourself. Would recommend if you’re spending the day in York and want a large or light meal to either start or finish the trip etc.

Brilliant service second time coming lovely staff namrata and others excellent service x

Really nice restaurant large food selection and lovely staff will come again x

Enjoyed a nice buffet, a good selection of starters and main courses. All items well labelled which was good as our daughter has a few food allergies.

Was ok, but a very mediocre amount of food on show. A very basic amount of food to choose from.

The food was very poor quality and most was dried up or tasteless. The desserts were a very poor selection and what was in little pots were tasteless , the pots of ice cream did not taste like ice cream either. Wouldn't go again as feel it was poor and over priced...

I took my children for the first time and they were so amazed! So much selection and great, tasty food. We were served by Namrata and she was so friendly and helpful.

The service was excellent and the food was very nice.

Came here for dinner with the family,we were really looking forward to having dinner here, we had a few issues unfortunately,the place was far to hot, asked for the air conditioning to move out on,had to ask a few times, then drinks were missing,but the young lady that served us was kind and gave plenty of info about the food areas. Very aware of price increase but the price was a bit high, even though it's all you can eat buffet, definitely couldn't eat alot because of the heat,of course the weather is not the fault of the staff but air conditioning was a must as this did impact our experience

Great service, amazing food as always. Music good, atmosphere good. Very clean and tidy. All staff brilliant. Shout out to namrata and Jake!! Top notch 👍🏼

The best place to relax, best food and the best service from Namreta. Great choice of food and everything was well cooked, fresh and delicious, When we are in town next time, my wife and I will come back, Namreta was wonderful! Thank you

This place is a beautiful place time here the staff are amazing and very soft spoken and polite especially the waiter called namrata she's respectful the food is amazingly mouth watering defo have to come back again 10/10 from me

Lovely meal with family. Waitress was very attentive Pinch

The food very delicious and had a pleasant service from Pinch.

There are many types of food. Most of them are Asian food. You could taste dishes here. However, some of the hot dishes are not very warm. The prices are reasonable, but the flavors are not particularly outstanding.

Absolutely phenomenal feel really relaxed and staff are exceptional

Wide range of food on offer. Eat as much as you like, kind staff (Laura and Jack were very friendly and helpful), well organised. Good place to spend a couple of hours as a family.

Sorry but not impressed food availability poor and quality poor refill very slow I won't be visiting again or recommend to my friends there was four of us and none of us were impressed.

Good food, not very expensive, people there are friendly, especially Anna,she is a good girl, provide excellent service to me. Will come back again.

Probably the worst food I’ve been exposed too as I didn’t eat anything Completely rubbish

Fantastic choice of mains and loads of different puddings

Food was lovely, so much to choose from. Namrata was a lovely and very helpful hostess. Our tables were continuously cleaned. I'm so full l could burst

Lovely food with great seasoning. Attentive staff and lovely restaurant. Would definitely visit again despite it being an hour drive.

Lots of food to choose from and tastes well! Will be coming back when I travel to York!

GRUBBY!! After looking at reviews and staying near York we decided to give it a try, our child was looking forward to the chocolate fountain, upon arrival we were shown our table, the kitchen is partly open, it looked unloved for a few years, the chinese section is OK at best, satay chicken was cold, no salt and pepper ribs, crispy duck just didn't taste right. The dishes are sat built into a worktop and towards the end the worktops are discoloured looking GRUBBY and sticky like it's not been cleaned properly for a while, whilst getting the crispy duck the main kitchen door was open and looked unloved and dirty with splashes up walls. There is a tepenyaki section and a grill but was only offered just meat by pointing to what I wanted, I thought tepenyaki was a chef cooking you a dish from different ingredients? Not here, I did lift a couple of India dishes to find just dry looking chicken (not tikka) within a sauce simply not appetising. The deserts were obviously the cheapest made to man! The ice cream was like those cheap cold mousse you used to buy years ago. No chocolate fountain. The drinks we eventually ordered came not really cold as we don't take ice, the large size is not a pint. The toilets are a disgrace, the sinks have orange crud all at the top and plug holes, the hand dryers have all dirty build up at the bottom, toilets stank of urine and most of the inside windows in the restaurant were dirty and shelves thick with dust! Owners if you read this review your place needs closing and a deep clean or replace the shabby stuff it's disgusting, clearly it's just about taking the money. I so wished we had just walked out and gone to the super clean, with smart looking staff round the corner at the Brazilian place. Panda mama clean your place up and have some pride in what you do!!

Great service and food! Special call out to Anna for her fantastic attention to our table 🙂

The food was ok, nothing new. I have been to better all you can eat restaurants, and it felt that this one is quite struggling to keep up, while other restaurants have more food varieties of food compared to this one.

Wowww, if there place that satisfies all your asian cravings from starters to desserts , with excellent experience of buffet and live kitchen especially, in customising my bbq with plenty of meat and vegetarian choices surprised me with economical prices. On top of the food, always service and hosting comes first, every staff member is lovely and warm welcomed over 100 people at one go they able to manage with food to be served hot. chefs are lovely, the good thing is even they will host the guests with very pleasant smile and tasty food. i would highly recommend this place for parties

Food was average but the staff told us that drinks were unlimited but it isn't.

Caught the chef picking his nose twice and touching bowls utensils and then wiping his nose with his hand absolutely vile

Made my breastfeeding wife feel so uncomfortable she fed the baby in the toilets, staff stood and watched her until she did this, food is over rated extremely low quality and selection. After all of that the staff added a tip/service fee without telling me only telling me after I paid and stating it was optional at that point. Honestly stay away and go to any other all you can eat place their all better than this dump.

Service - No complaints in this regard, everyone we interacted with was pleasant and they we're able to accommodate us being 15 minutes early for our reservation. Food & Drink - I had 2 cocktails which were lovely (Pow Pow Pandas I think) and quite alcoholic. Food was a bit like marmite, some of the dishes were the best I've had (sweet & sour chicken and spring rolls especially along with the pizzas which also looked very appetising) while some was not good (the noodles tasted more like overboiled spaghetti than noodles and the curries especially). The Indian and Thai selection was minimal and it felt like many dishes were missing despite being dinner which boasts an apparent "150 dishes". Atmosphere - The restaurant is wonderfully decorated, tables well spaced and lay out of the buffet area was good, though signs didn't necessarily reflect the food (spring rolls and prawn toast right next to chicken nuggets and chips?). Overall - A pleasant experience and cost effective, certainly one of the better buffets but not the best we've ever visited.

Delicious meat of all domestic species,...chicken, lamb, beef and from different places on the grill, they serve it to you until you say it's over...and you also have starters and you can eat everything without stopping except for the drink . And they don't have dessert

The place was filthy, filthy cutlery and plates. Food awful. Chicken had black bits in, the Chinese cold and greasy. Deserts dry. Even the glass of tap water stank. Only good thing was the polite staff. WASTE OF MONEY. AVOID!!!!!!

Kinda average experience. Wasn't expecting to be mine blown nor disappointed. The food was nice and warm but average service.

Great food. Great place. Great price.

Very helpful employees, buffet food of every kind and great atmosphere.

Great service pinch help us out. Tnx for the service

To be honest we went in at 8pm but Buffet stops getting stocked up at 9.30pm apparently. They charged my daughter an adult price even though she is only 10 yes she is tall but going to a buffet place the week before in Glasgow she got charged a child’s price. The food was hard and they never stocked it you they staff sat up the back eating at like 9pm when it doesn’t shut until 10pm. Wouldn’t go back ever neither would my parent or daughter so unhappy with the quality and quantity of food in the restaurant

Will not let you move tablets and bad food

Considering price, excellent vfm

Got there 1.30 pm 25/07/24 hardly no food to choose from and very little of what there was was so dried up. No fresh food at all. Very disappointing 😞 £14.99 and £3.50 for an orange and water. Service very poor. Would not go again 😐 sorry !

Best place really good food brilliant staff really recommend for all.

Food was cold and didn't taste nice. The worst place I've been to for all you can eat

Wile the service was OK the same can't be sed about the food boath me and my partner was unimpressed and Der I even say disgusted bu the quality of the food it says something when you only put things you like on a plate and can't finish it go somewhere else

Very good food and a variety of options.

The starters and crispy duck were lovely but unfortunately the mains where watery and bland, not many nut free options either

No food available and staff no topping up the buffet. The food that was there was very cold. Very poor taking into consideration charging £23 per person

Very good value excellent service

Good value for money and adequate choice of lunch dishes. Namrata provided a very friendly service and made me to feel welcomed. So good place for casual no frills dining.

Nice place. You eat as much as you want, no one rushes you. The price for the food is appropriate. Drinks are charged extra, but that's normal.

Biggest buffet I've ever been to. They had something for everyone. The food included Indian, Chinese, carvery, and Japanese. Also offered live cooking. Abi Anna was our waitress and very lovely.

Great food and excellent service by Abi and atmosphere OK.

Anna and Pratheeksha was absolutely amazing , such amazing service. Huge choice of food , quality 👌 very clean and smart place

I really liked the food the bathroom was very clean I recomend this a lot (pratheeksha) Was very nice

Pratheeksha and Anna were lovely just like the food. Highly reccomend

Buffet was just exactly what I expected

Me and my mum came in the other day the chicken was raw in the middle the manager tried telling me it was due to the marinade which is not true at all as I am a chef myself I would never come back to PANDA MAMI again terrible service and terrible food 🤢🤮

Nice food and fantastic service from Namoata, would reccomend.

I came to celebrate my birthday here would highly recommend the dining experience for anyone looking to enjoy great food and attentive service. Thank you Panda Mami 😊
