Red Leaf in Great Yarmouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Nice food had the set menu for £19. The waiter let me swap options I didn't like for an alternative. I have been coming here for 23 years where it used to be all you could eat, however, I think the owners would have been better putting up the all you can eat price or adding supplements for more expensive items eg. duck. The reason is that it seems a lot quieter than it used to be and am worried their business may suffer as locals will not like this change. Love Red Leaf, great food & service

Lovely meal out for our family of four. Had a set meal. Plenty to go around and food nice and hot. Staff very friendly.

Had a meal here the other day with my family and the food was very nice and staff were very polite and welcoming.

This is the 2nd time I have ordered a takeaway from China Diner. The Salt&Pepper chicken wings were very nice, lots of chilli. The Kung Po king prawns were also very nice. Unfortunately the rest of the meal was not. The egg fried rice was a dark brown colour, was obviously over cooked and in stale oil. The Chicken in Garlic was disappointing, I have ordered this from other takeaways and it has always been in a rich garlic sauce, this was dry and lacking in garlic. The special noodles in Sambai sauce was a soggy mess with little flavour. Sambai sauce should be made from lots of ingredients and be hot and fragrant. This dish was bland to say the least, very disappointing. Will I order from here again, No Way. There are far better takeaways in the area that I have used, and will go back to.m

Where do I start ? The food was spectacular and the service was absolutely amazing. staff where very polite and helpful, overall my experience was over what I expected and I will be dining here again 10/10

Have eaten here a few times now and have never been disappointed, excellent food and service, and very reasonably priced

My wife and I went there for my birthday. We booked for 7pm and got there slightly earlier but the table was ready and waiting. The food was lovely, hot when it reached the table and loads of it, its buffet style so you could choose from the menu and the staff brought it out when it was done. You can keep asking for more of the same too, always a good thing. Plenty to choose from and nice flavours to eat, what more could you ask for. The prices were quite reasonable too.

We went out for a lovely we have been a few times last time we went the food wasn't very nice but tonight the food was really nice and the service was really good will definitely go again and you get so much food for your money

Kung Po king prawns are excellent! By far the best Chinese for miles. BBQ spare ribs and chicken balls were all generous portions

Dined there tonight, great food great service for a fair price. Will definitely go again and I would recommend it.

All the staff are very friendly and attentive. The food is very good, hot and freshly cooked. Couldn’t fault the food or service, a very enjoyable evening. Thankyou to all concerned.

Just got back from a wonderful buffet meal (12th july 2019). Staff was lovely but especially the gentleman that was serving our food. The food was quick but high quality, it was just delicious. I highly recommend Thank you

After reading some positive reviews my family and I thought we would visit, as the restaurant described itself as child friendly, and we had three children in our party. From the second we set foot inside the man who greeted us was extremely rude and sarcastic/arrogant. After showing us to a table and ordering us to ‘sit down’ he reluctantly bought out the oldest and dirtiest highchair I have ever seen for my 15 month old daughter. Upon looking at the menu we asked if there was a children’s menu available, but was told ‘no, it’s a Chinese restaurant’ and then said ‘usually children just share deep fried chicken balls. Hardly a varied or appealing choice for little ones! Due to his rude nature and lack of food for the children we decided it best to not waste our money in such an establishment. It was no wonder that there was only two other diners in the restaurant, clearly not a well liked restaurant! Steer clear, especially if you have children with you. Not child friendly at all!

Visited last night Sun 23rd June. We are local and have been to Red Leaf on many occasions over the past years. The restaurant runs on a “eat what you like basis” and has a very wide choice of starters and main dishes all of which are freshly prepared, piping hot and in my opinion of excellent quality. Whatever you decide to eat is bought to the table rather then “buffet style” get it yourself! Couple this to friendly, attentive service and you have the makings of a very good experience. My wife and I enjoy a mix of starters, first being Soup. I like the hot & sour and my wife likes Chicken and sweetcorn. We follow that with a mix of starters, ribs, salt and chilli prawns, sesame prawn toast, malay spring rolls, seaweed, chicken satay etc. We normally have about 6 dishes on the plate for us to pick and chat over. Kind of a “Chinese tapas”. That is then followed by duck pancakes with all the trimmings. We normally then stop as we cant eat anymore! Those with bigger bellies can of course do the norm and move on to the main course of which the selection is vast and once again, eat what you want. So to summarise, food of very high quality and delicious. As much as you want (but don't leave / waste any!). Service also superb, friendly, fast and attentive. Value for money is right up there with the best. We look forward to our next visit.

Amazing food great portions eat as much as you can but mains (thankfully) come as half portions as we were stuffed from starters and duck! Had an issue with drinks however, which tainted the evening - forgetting to put vodka in drinks is kinda stupid especially when it’s doubles!!! You can’t knock them for trying - but to be honest it’s a cheap trick! Not on.

This place came highly recommended and we were not disappointed. This is an all-you-can-eat buffet but not self service so every course is freshly cooked. The manager was extremely friendly and helpfully guided us through the menu and how it worked. All the food was excellent quality.

First time using this takeaway. Good selection of different Chinese food. The delivery arrived quickly and before the estimated delivery time. On arrival, the food was still hot and came with generous portion sizes. Would definitely order again.

What a great way to enjoy a buffet you keep ordering and they keep bringing it all served at your table lots of choices food quality was great and great service will definitely eat here again

Service and food was amazing! Even though the entrance appears to not be very welcoming (to the point of questioning if it is open). The staff were very friendly and hospitilising. The service was fast. Then the food itself was brilliantly cooked and made with lots of effort and attention. I have now been for lunch and dinner service. Highly recommended!

Heerlijk gegeten, aardige bediening en een heel goed concept. All-you-can eat buffet maar dan op bestelling. Wat wat jammer was, was dan ook dat de de tweede gang flink later kwam dan de warme bordjes anders hadden ze een tien gekregen.

Had a takeaway from here a while ago and wasnt very impressed but thought we would try again and I am glad we did! The food was delivered quickly and arrived hot! Both me and my partner enjoyed what we ordered and were impressed with the portion sizes! Will order from here again!

A tad on the pricey side, but staff very attentive and food was fabulous! Will defiantly visit again.

Visited for my son's birthday with family, brilliant food, service and very friendly staff, highly recommend, great value for money.

It was amazing night ....the best restaurant in great yarmouth...highly recommended...take away always on the time...the best quality of food

Service was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. Food was served as small dishes so we could help ourselves and try many different dishes. Food was really tasty and hot. Would definitely reccomend.

First visit and hopefully not my last.

We were a group of 8 including 4 adults and 4 children.

Came here for the first time with my daughter and had a meal from their set lunchtime menu. We had a starter plus a main meal and a soft drink. The food was very nice and well presented. Will definitely be going back.

These people doubled charged me and refused to refund me. Im sure i'll get the cash back after 28 days of aggravation, but they could not have been less helpful

Gonna keep this short and sweet as i'm stuffed.

The restaurant is currently having improvement made , the men’s toilets are in a very bad state and the room we were in requires a full restoration.the outside is very shabby and could also do with a lick of paint . Parking is limited in the area , so you might have a bit of a walk.

No where near as good as it used to be. Spicey chilli squid used to have a sauce but now it doesn't and it was so chewy and dry. The mussels in the seafood noodles was a odd grey colour, and the prawns were white in colour and soggy. The whole experience was unpleasant and overpriced. I don't mind paying a steep price if the food was fresh and tasty but unfortunately this was not the case. The meal didn't look good and it tasted nasty. Won't be returning which us a shame as we used to love Red Leaf.

Just seen two men checking a fishing net in the sea across the road from the resturant. Really not pleased, I hope they wash what they catch properly.

Ordered food from this establishment and I had half a missing order, burnt food and a rubbish customer service experience.No complimentaries for a £38 pound order and they forgot our prawn crackers. Receptionist who spoke barely any English said we lied about the missing half of our order. Maybe should of used some of the £38 pound rubbish get English lessons. Disgusting. Customer service Poor Food probably half a guinea pig and The rest probably my dead dog the meat resembled something out of a porta loo at a curry festival. Wouldn’t trust this food as far as I could through it. Probably had rat poo in it too Would never return even if this was the last place on earth to sell sweet and sour chicken.

I have eaten here many times through out the years. We headed out for a mid week Chinese to be left disappointed, food wasn’t very hot but waited a long time even thou only 2 other tables in. Once we had finished no one cleared our plates so we walked to counter to pay and staff sat eating their dinner, not great if you ask me!

Been going to this restaurant for probably over the last 7 years in its various forms, always leave full and content.

The food here is so light, authentic and delicious. Some Asian restaurants try to cater for the Western tongue but this is spot on. From entering and starting on the prawn crackers on the table through to the delicious curries, side orders etc everything is a culinary delight. And you can even pretend you are not in Gt Yarmouth as gaze over the water.

I can’t fault this place. I’ve been many times before and I think it deserves a decent review. Having been during a lunch service it’s very quiet but the food is fresh and delicious and the staff are always really helpful. Our waitress had very limited English and didn’t understand what lager was but we couldn’t have a problem with her because she was fast, helpful and very attentive. The outside of the restaurant is very tired which is a huge shame. It’d take a huge investment to decorate such a substantial building and its sad it’s been allowed to deteriorate so badly because it really is a stunning building with beautiful high windows and tall ceilings. It’s a hidden gem in Yarmouth and if you’re peckish of a lunchtime, it’s well worth a visit. The all you can eat menu is fab and the portions are ample.

Looking out of the window I saw empty bottles,cans, weeds. I stuck to the table which needed a thorough clean and likewise the floor. This before the meal makes you question standards in the kitchen. Place has really deteriorated. Food ok.

We have eaten here as a family many times and always found it to be a pleasant although a little costly experience. However tonight we came as usual but 1 of us could not eat due to medical condition but wanted to still be part of the group. We said that only 2 of us were eating so we was told we would still have to pay for all 3 meals as we had sat down unless we wanted to pay seperately for every individual dish! So we ate anyway and paid what was asked to then be charged an extra charge for paying on debit card! Im only glad i didnt need to use the toilet as i would probably have been charged for that too! With the amount it cost the place should really be given a coat of paint and the filthy entrance hall carpets a clean!

5 of us went here at Christmas 2016, pay a set price and order what you like, great idea as you can order as you go which means the food doesn't get cold, great service, expensive drinks

I attended a pre-booked birthday party over the weekend. there were at least 16 of us in the party (£18 per head). We were booked to eat at 8 P.M. Unfortunately, the starters were not served until 8.45 and we only had 4 tea plates for the group.

Do not eat here unless you want to be ripped off... 2 adults one child came to £60 may I add we had no alcoholic beverages just 2cokes and a j2o

Una auténtica joya escondida en Norfolk, mi novio y yo a menudo visitan este restaurante y nunca he he ha decepcionado con el servicio que recibimos o la comida.

Yo y mi esposa regularmente visita Imperial en Lowestoft, pero anoche estaban cerrados, ella decidimos darle otro punt (China Diner no hayan disfrutado de su comida en el pasado).

Hemos vivido en Yarmouth para un año, buscando un restaurante chino. Red Leaf dimos un echo por su mal estado decoración externa, pero después de ser avisado para ir por un local, nos llevó a la inmersión.

Estado viniendo aquí durante unos años y siempre puede confiar en una comida bastante buena. Elegir los platos de un menú en lugar de ir con ellos desde las bandejas calientes. Esto significa que aunque tienes que esperar su comida es siempre recién hecha y caliente. El menú es muy extenso y marcado con picante caliente dishes. Como un buffet normal puede mantener comiendo hasta que se completa. Algunos de los empleados no hablan muy bien inglés, pero aún están muy atento y educado. Las bebidas y la comida muy buena relación calidad-precio, pero si quieres puedes pedir una coca-cola ya en varias ocasiones la Coca Cola ha sido plana. Si este es el caso, cambiará sin duda. Aparcamiento está fuera o a pocos pasos de distancia y gratuito después de las 6 de la tarde.

La comida es muy buena, pero lamentablemente se olvidaron de algunos de nuestro pedido, así que tener que esperar el resto de la comida. Es una pena.

Food good. However entrance to restaurant confusing and very unwelcoming.Waiters not particularly helpful this was our first time here and they did not explain how the all you can eat buffet worked. Luckily one person in our party had been before so they helped out.The place itself although pleasant was very cold and the toilets were even colder...the quality of the food was good just a shame the rest wasn't.

Always come here for special occasions! Dont let the outside fool you as it does need revamping outside but the inside looks fab and the food is incredible! Really amazing value for your money and staff are friendlyThe only thing with this particular place is when you dont fancy going out for food and want their take away the food is then very expensive! If it were a bit less pricey for takeaway they would have an order from my house every week as even the takeaway food is fantastic!

Really delicious meals. We had the lunch set menu and its pretty cheap at less than £10. Food service is really quick. Resto staff is very polite and accomodating.

Was very busy lot of confusion with tables as it was a table for ten we were waiting for. Drinks very expensive £2.90 for a pint of Coke straight out of a 1.75litre bottle, so of course this was flat. You can buy cans for 39p they would be fresher and you would make more money. Good food lots of long waits only between

friendly staff nothing too much trouble don't feel rushed and food great x massive choice to have and can have as much or as little that you want

Went last Friday evening at 6.30pm. Had not booked were able to accommodate 4 adults and 2 children aged 5 and 2. Place was freezing cold, a couple of us kept coats on. After a while were asked what we would like to drink, waitress struggled to understand when we asked what childrens drinks they had, rapidly went downhill from there. Finally sorted drinks and waitress then came back for starters order. Which arrived reasonably quickly but still no drinks. These eventually came. Starters finished and duck course came. We had to ask to order mains after another considerable wait. Now the best bit, the bill, having ordered no food for the 2 children other than one portion of chips, the children had a bit of what the adults were eating, we were charged £10.50 for each child. We queried this with waiter and the manager came to speak with us. She told us that we should only have asked for a table for 4 adults and not the 2 children, I don't know where she thought we were going to put the children whilst we ate! The £21 was taken off the bill, but still a charge of £3 for a portion of chips but were told in no uncertain terms that next time they would be charged for. For goodness sake, what 2 year old child would eat £10.50 worth of food, or even a 5 year old for that matter. Will never set foot in the place again!

Never ever again. Arrived there on a Tuesday night, to find the restaurant was completely empty, could hear a pin drop. also the feel of the restaurant was very damp and cold. Got seated straight away(because it was empty) on the worlds smallest table. The waiter was kind and helpful. We hadn't eaten there before so he kindly explained the menu, although the menu was difficult to understand and had to ask a few times to get the full understanding. We ordered drinks straight away, they came back a big disappointment. Both drinks were flat. Then the waiter was very Eagar to take our Oder and both felt like we was on put on the spot. "Are you ready to Oder" would of been a reasonable question to ask. So we ordered and the food was particularly quick which I can't fault. Although the chicken balls were coated in grease and slightly soggy. The chips were covered in salt, The rice was lumpy, the beef curry we ordered was also very thick and chewy. We finished and went off to pay. Extortionate prices!!!!!! Didn't expect to pay that much for so little. We asked about the prices and didn't really get anywhere. It's safe to say I shall never be heading back to this restaurant in any time soon.

I have dined here over a period of some 12 Years & was a bit wary when I discovered that ownership had changed.Thankfully the new owners are continuing as the previous management.The food is similar & some dishes are maybe slightly better than before.At lunchtimes you can still get a fantastic value 2 course meal with a drink for £8-50 & all prepared promptly.I really recommend that you give it a try. Takeaway service is available if you don't have time to savour the atmosphere. Friendly staff. Keep up the good work.

Fine food at a good price..Fast service without the rush of a normal buffet style restaurant... Fine selection of starters and good amount of mains to choose from..even my kids were satisfied and full by end of the meal..

We did not excpect anything too fantastic in a Great Yarmouth Chinese restaurant. We were told to try this by one of the Broads Authority staff at Yarmouth Quay. However, it is a buiffet menu but cooked freshly. For the reasonable price we both paid we had a great meal. All our dishes were tasty and quickly presented. Flavorsome Thai rice, nice Peking Duck, Won Ton soup and main courses of pork and chicken. Staff were very pleasant and I had a nice chat about China to one of the waiters who came from Shanghai where I had visitied. Very good meal. Give it a try.

The food is cooked while you wait, the service is outstanding, you can eat as much or as little as you like, and not expensive at all. Don't believe the web page that says they are closed on Saturdays and Sundays, as they are not. A must if you are in the area.

Asked around and was advised to visit here.Warm welcome buffet style menu where you can order what you want 3 courses £16.50 and as much as you can eat.Food delicious and very tasty but the lack lustre interior and the surcharge of £0:50 to use your card (debit even I think this is not chargeable) worth a visit.

Had a great time celebrating my birthday with 9 of my family, the food was delicious and plenty of it definitely no skimping on the portions. We had there buffet option and they selected all the starter food a great selection. Followed by crispy aromatic duck and then the main course we again let them select for us, however we could have chosen ourselves if we had wanted to. All in all great food friendly staff. For ten of us it worked out about £20 a head including our drinks.

This is called China diner now.Really good restraint they do a buffet for £15. You order of the menu they cook it really good food amazing value

Went here with husband, lots of dishes to choose from and all cooked fresh when u order your individual dishes

Went for a meal with friends from out of town, was our first visit to the restaurant and we went after reading good reviews on here.The service provided by the staff was first class, they could not have been friendlier or more helpful.We didn't know it was an all you can eat buffet before arriving so was looking forward to some freshly made Chinese food.This wasn't the case, the food arrived way too fast after ordering for it to have been cooked to order and the majority of the meats had little to no taste, with only the sauce providing flavour.There was also a mandatory Duck course between appetisers and mains which to me seemed a little strange.I would recommend the place for people who fancy pigging out but not really for couples looking for high Chinese cuisine.

Best Chinese in the area. Food is tasty and portions are great. Staff really friendly and attentive, well worth the money.

Perfekter Abend, auf Nachfrage auch originale chinesische Gerichte, exzellente Qualität, den Empfehlungen des Patrons folgen und genießen. Absolute Empfehlung!

We booked a table for Myself, Wife, Daughter and her Partner for 6.00 pm on Tuesday, thinking that booking wouldnt be necessary. By 6.30, the place was heaving so glad we booked.It is a Fixed Price Menu and you can have as much food as you want to eat, the only caveat being that uneaten food will be charged for at menu prices, to avoid waste.We selected a mixture of eight starters and all came quickly to the table, piping hot and beautifully presented. When we had finished, the friendly waiter asked if we wanted any more or should he bring the Duck and Pancakes.A large plate of shredded duck arrived with steamed pancakes, cucumber and spring onions and a dish of sauce. We had three pancakes each, all overfilled with duck, there was so much of it, and again, when finished we were offered more, but we chose to move on to the mains, except for my daughter who ordered another dish of mixed starters.The Main courses of Lemon Chicken, Chicken Sweet and Sour and Chicken noodles, together with fried rice was also plentiful and outstanding value.After this mammoth feast, we could hardly move and had loosened our trousers for comfort Next time I will wear an elasticated waist!The price for all this with all our drinks, an incredibly low £83.00 for four of us. Even with the generous tip, it was a bargain meal, which we will be repeating again shortly.The only minor criticism I could make is the dining room could do with extra lighting. It is a shade to dark for my taste but that did not spoil an altogether outstanding meal.

I used to think this place was one of the best places to eat in GY, the front has always needed a lick of paint to match the decent interior and the service was always good.First of all, I think it may have changed hands as a lot has come off the menu. My mum took us there to celebrate my sister-in-law becoming a solicitor. The staff were friendly.The first round of drinks were a bit of a disaster, the cokes were flat and I ordered a Chinese lager that had never seen the fridge.The starters were lovely although, especially the thai style ribs and the spicy squid. The midcourse of duck was also very nice, although we had to wait quite a long time for the Hoi Sin Sauce.The second round of drinks took ages to come and the draught Beck's Vier tasted like the pipes could do with a clean.One of the party had Thai Green Curry, that we all felt wasn't great, the cashew prawns were lovely as was the Kung Po Prawns, I would strongly recommend the ginger and spring onion beef. The pineapple and coconut rice was lovely too although one portion wouldn't be enough to share between two.I have been coming here for years and this was my first disappointing visit for somewhere I used to think was quite lovely, hopefully they'll get back on track.

We asked a local taxi driver to recommend a good Chinese restaurant and he said this was the best in the area. From the outside you could be put off as it doesn't look much but we decided to give it a go. The staff (a man and woman) were both lovely. Friendly without being over the top. The service was fast and the food tasty. We chose the buffet menu and weren't disappointed. For 3 adults and 1 child, all drinking coke the bill came to around £75. We would return if in the area again.

Went hear Thursday evening 11 of us, been hear before and enjoyed it, this time terrible, rude staff, portion sizes are a lot smaller and drinks are overpriced, don't order cokes £3 a glass and it is served out of a normal bottle of Coke which you can buy for 80p beers are over priced too, wing be going back, greedy people

Went for a meal with family we have been before a few time and thought the meal was always good but this time we were very disappointed the food wasn't good and the tables were a bit sticky and dirty which was a shame

People told us this is the best Chinese in Great Yarmouth.Well it was ok but not special,nothing wrong at all,crispy duck was good and so was the sweet and sour prawn dish.However when people say this is the best,I wonder about the competition!

We eat here at least once a month, some more often. There is a lunch time special consisting of two courses plus drink for £7.50. Good choice and tasty good. The staff know us well and in The evening they serve a buffet which consists of order a choice of dishes maybe 4 different starters and mains. These are replenished upon request. It also incudes crispy duck and pancakes. Very good value.

The red leaf is the best Chinese food I have tasted staff were very helpful. Food was lovely and hot we went for a birthday meal and we're made to feel very special. We took a cake and they brought it out and played the happy birthday music. It has a lovely atmosphere.

We had the evening buffet and there were 6 of us. We shared 8 starters, with massive portions and refills available. The pork dumplings were especially nice. The duck for mid course was gorgeous and again lots of it and the thai green curry for main was beautiful (I have had this several times at lunch) and I was not disappointed. The staff were so helpful and courteous and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Lovely way to spend a pre christmas evening and inexpensive too :)

Went there with 9 other colleagues from work. Only 2 staff working, which made the wait even longer for service and food. Disappointed with the food overall, but would add that the food on previous occasion was much better, although some dishes quite tastless. Definately over-priced for what it is. Presented with the bill (over £250 for all of us) and presented pre loaded (with funds) Mastercards. Refused to take these and said that they had never seen this type of payment before, after ringing the owner, so had to pay with another card with pin. Then had the cheek to add 50p for the privilage of using their card PDQ machine. Come on wise up and get in the 21st century. Personally I will not be back there again

Had a lovely meal here with a large group of friends. Really lovely food, and very quickly brought out! Was very impressed! Staff were very efficient.

Found the room slightly dark couldn't read menu proper. The food was ok have had better. The Imperial in Batley is the one to try it's absolutely fabulous.

With my reliance on a wheeled walking frame, access and egress here is a problem because there are 4 steps, relatively wide treads but shallow risers.The lunchtime special menu is excellent value, a wide choice of dishes and generous servings.

The food here really is very very good - clean fresh taste and one of those places that you eat everything as the flavours just keep on coming. Lovely varied menu - the only criticism I would have is the girl who served us was really grumpy and could not even raise a smile! Would not put me off but maybe ask to be served by somebody else ha ha!

Absolutely fantastic Chinese in Great Yarmouth! Do not be put off by the ropey exterior, as the food and value for money here is incredible!! This is not just a good local Chinese restaurant, it is as good a Chinese as I have ever been too!Staff were very friendly and the service was fast.Go here!!!

Visited here whilst on holiday with the family and booked a table prior to our arrival. We are all big eaters and we're looking for something that would give us choice and quantity! Everything was cooked to order and arrived hot. Service was a little slow at times but the place was busy (always a good sign!). We were all stuffed and went home happy!

We like this Restaurant good hot food, wonderful staff, very clean place. the low lighting set the mood from the time you go in the door. Friendly staff with a warm smile.

I visited here with my family and boyfriend a few months ago and I was appalled at the attitude from the manager, it is easy to see that she does not take criticism kindly free a phone call which she had she was shouting at a young lady who worked there in front of staff. Lady was extremely rude while taking our order and snapped whenever we said the same food twice. Food also took a long time to come out in which my table and the table in front were frustrated with. Manager was extremely rude to my nan when confronted at how appalling it was. Food is beautiful but service completely ruins it. I will not be returning.

We have been using this restaurant for over 10 Years. I can report that we have never ever had any cause to complain, The Lunch menu is superb value & in the evening it is like visiting a different restaurant. Have sampled many different things on the menu & just keep coming back for more. Don't understand the negative reviews but nobody is perfect. If you had a bad experience give them another try. Hopefully you will be glad you did!!

We visited here last year and enjoyed the meal. Read up on reviews saying not to bother entertaining but decided to try it again for ourselves. The service and meal were both very good. Will be visiting again next time we are in yarmouth

If you know anything about Chinese food, you'll probably want to give this place a miss.£17.50 per head for a buffet is too much for the standard of what you are getting. However, if it's quantity you want, go for it!

Visited here on the 11th April for my sisters birthday. As a party of 10 we booked in advanced and were greeted as usual by friendly staff. We ordered our drinks and then were taken to our table. What we love about this restaurant is that it is buffet style in the sense of its all you can eat but the food is cooked fresh and brought to your table. If there isn't enough, you order more. If there is something wrong, they're very quick to rectify. I don't understand all of the negative reviews for this place. It's a decent price for all you can eat (people whinging about £10-15 makes me think that they think McDonald's is a good price and gourmet food) As usual we left feeling very very full and content. Note: starters are amazing. The mains are on the small side but that's justifiable considering you can keep ordering starters then duck and soup.

Service is efficient but surroundings and ambiance seem be aimed at giving the impression that this is an upmarket/special restaurant. It isn't. We paid a premium for below average (served) buffet food which we found bland and not very warm. Pancakes for crispy duck were cold. We were unable to eat two of the dishes on offer as they simply didn't taste very nice. The restaurant has only one dining option- the fixed price buffet menu. I'd expect to pay this sort of money in a great Chinese restaurant in London or New York. This is not a great restaurant. And it's in Yarmouth. Beware - Drinks are also expensive and prices for these are not clear.

Very nice food, good service. Overall a great night. Nice selection to choose from, no room left for dessert!!

We often pop in here, the lady who manages there knows who we are and is brilliant. We work on a farm and we have often ended up turning up here gone 10pm on a Saturday or Sunday, looking slightly disheveled when sonething has gone awry and are in need of dinner later than we planned! we have been greeted warmly and told it is fine to eat even at that time. Food is yummy, drinks nice, atmosphere lovely. Can't fault them :)

Had never visited this restaurant before but thought we would give it a go... the decor is lovely and the ambience even better.. its clean and modern and with dimmed lighting and a candle on every table really gives it a relaxing feel. At first i was surprised by the all you can eat buffet as there is no food out you order from the menu but can order as much as you like as many times as you like! Which wasnt necessary as after the huge selection of starters, duck course and mains and sides i couldnt possibly fit in another morsel... every dish we ordered was fantastic can not fault one thing! It was so much nicer than the normal chinese buffet.. not your usual cheap and cheerful.. very reasonably priced at £15.50 a head considering the amount of food you get and they are always offering you more which is nice to see! The two ladies working tonight were both lovely, very helpful and a credit to the restaurant. Will definately be back!!

Great food really friendly staff and great value for money. Restaurant well decorated and has a great atmosphere when busy.

Can't see how anyone can knock it!!Best by far...we were greeted warmly and shown to a table(we hadn't booked). They explained the options and we opted for the buffet.This was a buffet with a difference! All fresh cooked and a wide, varied menu, we picked 4 starters, then decided on the crispy duck and chicken & sweet corn soup- again all cooked to order and fresh. The lovely waitress asked if we wanted to take 10 mins rest before ordering the mains but we decided to keep going and ordered 4 mains and some noodles...again cooked to perfection. Really could not finish it but had a good go, the wonderful waitress even asked if we wanted a dessert!! At this point, for heath & safety reasons, we declined. At no point did we feel rushed and could not fault it in anyway. Would recommend this to lovers of Chinese & Thai food. Absolutely Golden!!!

Probably my 4th visit, I've never been disappointed - my earlier visits were when it was a standard restaurant, now it's an all you can eat style. This works really well & the service was swift & efficient, asking if we wanted to rest between courses helped with the feeling of not being rushed as sometimes this can be the case in other buffet style restaurants. Starters were plentiful, the mid course of crispy duck was suggested to us, I thought this was good as sometimes you feel you are limited in terms of ordering items. Main courses were tasty & arrived hot, we had to ask them for the dessert menu which again is unusual as its frequently the add ons that help their profit margins. All in all a really good experience with many of the other diners appearing to be having fun.

Went here 4 lunch & wasn't disappointed. £7.50 gets u a starter, main & soft drink. There were 3 of us so we're shared the dishes. The lady brought us side plates without us asking. The main meal also comes with a side of rice or noodles. All was very tasty.

If you are thinking of going, don't bother.One of the worst meals I have eaten.Starters were poor. I had seaweed which had no taste.Ribs were ok. Sauce was very sweet.Thai Chicken wings never had any taste of Thai about them.Duck was ok, quiet fatty and not crisp in my opinion.I didn't bother with main course, I was that disappointed.You get as much as you want to eat, it's just very poor quality.I also ordered a pint of lager, which was off and tasted rank.I changed to bottle beer after discussing with the waitress.Will never set foot inside the place ever again and I winked suggest you don't either.

Arrived at 7.15pm and given a table quickly. It became very clear that with three large tables and an almost full restaurant the serving staff were struggling to give good service. Seaweed was chewy, ribs lacked flavour and there wasn't enough sides for the duck. We only managed two courses as were still waiting for our mains at 8.45pm and our car park ticket was running out. The waitress was mildly apologetic and said this happened once or twice every year. They hadn't planned on such a busy Tuesday night. Tried to give us 15% discount I asked for 50%, settled on 30%. I suggested that if the restaurant was busy this should have been mentioned before we sat down. A real shame as it had been recommended to us. Just read a poor review for service for 17th August so you have been warned!

the service was poor very slower starter went to a different table. half our table got soup then the fest minutes later. the main meal they brought out in bits. Was there a long time.

We always use this restaurant so brought some out of town friends and what a let down, food was ok but service was appalling.so so slow food missing and not served in one go, not too sure if we will return on a Saturday night as the staff obviously can't cope!
