Este buffet no pretende tener 5 estrellas, el rango más extenso de la historia o cualquier otro reclamo escandaloso. Mi experiencia fue, es un buffet pequeño con buena comida a un precio ridículamente bajo. ¡El personal aquí parece sufrir muchos abusos por parte de personas que quieren algo por nada! ! Los niños comen, los niños pagan. Los precios varían para el almuerzo y la cena, vaya a un horario más barato si no está preparado para pagar. Una vez más, la comida era buena, así que no tengo quejas.

Fuimos antes de las 5 pm pero me cobraron el precio de la cena. Esto se indicó claramente en su lista de precios y horarios. Después de decirle a la dama que no son las 5, balbuceó algo y dijo que cambiamos las reglas hoy, ahora son las 4 de la tarde. Por supuesto, dije que no es bueno, estás engañando a tus clientes. De todos modos, seguimos adelante y, sinceramente, no fue genial. Gracias a Dios por el chile dulce y el aceite de chile. No malgastaría su dinero en este lugar.

We were four friends visiting the restaurant in the middle of China town and got rather quickly a table, considering that it was Saturday evening. We ordered a menu for 4 people with various traditional dishes to try a bit of everything. We were satisfied about the food. Taste was good and the portions are definitely big enough. We could even take home the left over fried rice and noodles. Quality and quantity were very good for the money we paid. However, the staff was rather slow und most of them did not speak English. Hence, it made also an unfriendly impression. All in all, food very good, stuff rather disappointed. The location is fine, but rather loud and very busy.

Este restaurante buffet tenía una buena variedad de comida halal china, incluyendo pescado y gambas, lo que lo hace una excelente relación calidad-precio e incluye una bebida en el precio. La comida china puede ser un poco salada y grasosa, pero me complace informar que este lugar cocina comida bien cocida y no demasiado salada ni grasosa. Definitivamente vale la pena considerar si te apetece un cambio de comida india y el lugar está limpio como cualquiera en Whitechapel Road.

El personal era bueno. No es simpático pero no grosero, la de arriba estaba limpia en la superficie (mesas limpias, etc.Los baños eran tan) terrible. Me fui a lavar las manos antes de la comida y estaba muy sucio y tenía un olor, un olor que después me sentía que podía oler en sus vasos.La comida estaba bien, nada especial, pero no es terrible, especialmente teniendo en cuenta el precio. Para ser honesto, me desanime el baños, así que pueden haber afectado mi percepción. Me comí un gyoza que estaba catalogado como un gyoza vegetal y este (junto con el WC) es lo que me hizo dejar una crítica negativa.Soy una especie de gyoza fanática, mi restaurante japonés local (que es halal) me dijo que aunque todos su comida halal no pude comer su gyoza como era imposible encontrar gyoza listo halal hizo. Yo mismo he buscado gyoza halal no sirvió para nada. De todas maneras, este fue catalogado como gyoza vegetal así que agregaron a mi plato. Cuando yo pero en él, estoy muy seguro de que era de cerdo. He comido cerdo un número de veces (no he sido siempre Musulmán) y estoy seguro de que era de cerdo. Le pregunté a un miembro del personal para ver y él dijo, "pollo", pero nunca he visto pink pollo, pollo normalmente va de blanco cuando se cocina. Olía, aspecto y sabor como cerdo. Digamos que tenían razón y que era de pollo, luego todavía no creo que era halal porque, como he dicho antes, mi dice que es imposible de encontrar.Yo no comería allí.

It used to be HMC approved halal Chinese buffet which I liked a lot and had been there numerous times. Foods were average and greasy, still liked them as there were not enough halal options for Chinese buffet. Last time we had been there food were not fresh, little dried up as long time were in the serving trays. Since then we also found out that they were stripped of the HMC compliance halal certificate and other non halal food were found in the kitchen. We stopped visiting the restaurant since. You have to get the compliance back again to win the customers back.

Food was below standard, the one waiter with the blue shirt was very annoying, first thing he said when we sat down was 'use less plates' he himself admitted some of the food is not nice and the lady at the counter who is the face of the business does not speak English and stares at the customers whilst eating.

We booked a table for sixteen for a works do. Was not overly busy. A nice selection of foods available in the buffet which was £11.95 with a soft drink. Food very tasty and fresh. The prawn toast was delicious probably the best I’ve had in a long while. Would definitely go again

Went to this restaurant for a special birthday outing for my father with the family, there was 6 of us. I arrived late to the party but nonetheless still ate their with the family. Can't quote much on the service unfortunately as I only had time to eat the food before we had to end the evening. The food overall was extremely bland and oily. The special friend rice had some spice to it but that was it. It tasted like plain rice with pepper in it. The crispy seaweed was extremely oily, I felt like I was just drowning in oil. The food wasn't that hot. It was barely lukewarm to be honest. The prawn crackers seemed to be the only thing that hadn't gone completely wrong. Even the mini spring rolls were soggy. The food choice was very limited for a buffet (and they had no desserts) but I guess the only perk was that it included a single drink. My advice is to save your money and look for somewhere better other than spend it here. It wasn't worth a single penny in my case.

Lo único peor que la comida y el tiempo de espera para las bandejas para ser recargados es el servicio que recibes desde el grosero y arrogante propia importante personal/propietarios. El lugar tiene empeoró progresivamente durante los últimos años, y no puedo desentrañar cómo es aún alrededor. Lo único que se me ocurre que deben depender de los clientes porque nadie en su mente derecha volvería a este lugar. La comida es muy limitado y deliberadamente toman su tiempo para rellenar el menú principal para que el cliente se cansa y empiezan a llenarse de patatas fritas y galletas saladas horno barato de gambas, el extremo bajo, cosas de margen. El mundo personal que llena su lamento ni recipientes de distancia- toman personalmente que están tratando de conseguir la pena. El servicio es inexistente y la calidad de la comida es tan mala que se puede comprar un juego de oferta de alimentos de granja por mucho menos. Hacer su paladar un favor y evitar este lugar, sin respetar entusiasta o incluso hambre persona debe gastar dinero valioso o tiempo en este lugar.

Halal monitoring committee inspectors found pork in the fridges and stripped this place of their Halal certification. I would be extremely careful if you choose to eat here. I also note the Bangladeshi waiting staff are extremely rude!

Metimos en camino a casa para algunos llevar bolas de pollo. El restaurante cocinado ellos frescos, que era genial, pero eran las peores bolas de pollo que he probado jamás. La pasta estaba cruda en lugares y sabor de pastel. No pude terminar. Me cuesta 5 libras, que es el costo de un completo buffet de comida para llevar, que también fue decepcionante.

Im not a fan of all you can eat buffets but was convinced to go here by a hungry friend!it was standard chinese buffet fare - £10 for lunch inc a drink. 2 soups, 5 or 6 starters (prawn toast, spring rolls, chicken wings etc), 5 or 6 mains (black been beef, szechuan fish, sweet and sour chicken), 2 noodles, 2 rice and fresh fruit for dessert.The staff were constantly bringing out fresh, hot food which was good.Not bad, not great - the usual buffet stuff basically.

Picked up a cheap takeaway box last week late at night. I was surprised at how tasty the dishes were, I had previously been around 2 years ago when under other ownership. The dishes had improved and were very flavourful. The meat was very tender and the prawn tempura melt in the mouth. Fish coujons were also great with a tasty batter. It was so good and such great value that I returned yesterday for another two containers!

We've visited this cheap and cheerful Chinese buffet and will be happy to return. Some 27 freshly cooked dishes to choose from, as well as fresh fruit for dessert, in this eat-all-you-want restaurant. Service is friendly and a request for shredded duck was promptly heeded. It's easy to see why the Red Dragon is popular with locals and students. Don't expect anything but tasty, standard Chinese fare on a budget and you won't be disappointed.

Me and my wife visited this retaurant for a buffet meal. Whilst seated I have discovered a baby cockroach crawling near my plate as soon I spotted I have informed the waiter and made him witnessed it with his own eyes so he can do something about it, I was surprised that the matter was not dealt the way I expected to be. Instead the waiter did not show any interest. I would not recommend anyone to waste their time and money in that filthy horrible restaurant as they have serious health and hygiene issues. PLEASR DO NOT DINE IN THAT RESTAURANT. You can easily be food poisnned.

Me and my family went for a nice day out this was the second time we went the man at the front bald Asian guy was very rude and cocky and not at all welcoming. However when we had finished a mouse had been sitting up nearly the plank of wood by the ceiling when I told them there was a mouse they didn't seem to flinch or care. Like they were used to the idea of mice being there. This was very disgusted my food was beginning to come back up the main guy then told the cook to kill it the man got a tissue and held the mouse down. We could hear it crying as the man squeezed it to death. After we were in a hurry to leave the man made us pay a full total and did not give any discount or allow us off as we had witnessed something disgusting. Yuck. That mouse hair could be in our food or stool. Very poor serviceI have attached pictures whereby the mouse is sitting in front of the design wallpaper. Look closely hard to spot

I came here with a friend of mine hoping to eat some decent chinese food. The place is clean and atmosphere is relaxed. Unfortunately that is the only positive thing I can say.We found the food to be too oily and lacking in any real taste and authenticity. Example: they have "chicken satay" there and when i asked for satay sauce, or peanut sauce they apparently don't do it (with a confused look on the waiter's face)! And the chicken doesn't taste of any flavour, just dry and plain. Why not call it "chicken on a stick"???Definately won't be coming back, I can have spring rolls and prawn crackers dipped in curry sauce all day at home.

Awful. At a cost of £7 per person the all you can eat Chinese had me excited, we sat after getting some food and that excitement soon disappeared. The first thing that become apparent was how greasy the food was, to the point you will start to worry about your health as you are eating it. Then it became obvious how long the food had been sitting there, many of the noodle based dishes had dry noodles in them which spoiled the entire dish. I do not eat meat (Not helpful at all in this place as their catering to vegetarians is limited at best), but my friends informed me all of the meat based dishes he tried were barely warm. We informed the restaurant of this and this is where things only got worse, it became very apparent that the staff had limited capability of dealing with customer outside of using the till. A staff member turned the machines heat to full and then requested that we turn the machine down once the food was hot (ridiculous I am aware as this is totally not my job), which I proceeded to do, this is when the apparently the apparently amnesiac staff had a go at me, I explained that he had asked and that I was sorry regardless but instead of having good customer service he remained in a strop, his friend also approached us and asked what had happened but literally couldn't follow the story and didn't understand what had happened so he was also in a bad mood. My friend has already stopped eating at this point, and I was also wondering why I didn't buy the same food from the Tesco I could see from the window and cook it myself, because it would honestly have made a much better meal. A combination of rude staff and poor food made this one of my worst experiences at a 'restaurant', so much so I have had to come online to write a review to save anyone else that I can from having a similar experience.

As a buffet this was pretty good. The main let down was that Food left in the buffet selection dried out after a while..so the rice dishes were very hard...prawn toast ...rock solid. When items topped up/ refreshed they were nice..so go on a busy night. Good range of dishes..about 15/16..no crispy duck but nice battered prawns. Not a bad experience on the whole..flavours of the dished we tried were good.
