Avoid Avoid Avoid - charged me ÂŁ38 for myself and two under 10's - ÂŁ3.00 for a can of Pepsi. No food, No basics, What was left had clearly sat a while and was cold. Asked to speak to manager and waited 10 mins to do so. Eventually after asking for the 3rd time to speak with a manager was directed over to the bar. I explained the reason for my complaint and showed her that indeed there was no fresh food and that other people were also starting to complain. - I requested a refund. She responded by telling me that if was unhappy I should have complained earlier. I quickly pointed out that I had sought a manager around 15 mins prior to our conversation. - She then told me that she would not be issuing a refund as we had all "eaten a full meal"!! I pointed out my empty plate and the fact that my daughter had only eaten 2 slices of cucumber as the noodles he wanted were not there to take! My son had managed two chicken wings and a shriveled up chip. Eventually after much persistence she reluctantly agreed to refund the children's meals. She refused to credit me with the cost of my meal (the meal I hadn't had). I then requested to speak to her manager or superior. She informed me that a complaint would only be accepted in writing. I asked who I would need to write to and she informed me that I would need to address my complaint to......wait for it...."The Manager" who happened to be her. Pointing out to her the absolute quackery and nonsense of her attitude we left feeling angry, upset and hungry. AVOID AVOID AVOID

If you have allergies DO NOT eat here. I had to run to boots to get an EpiPen due to crab meat being in the salad. There was no sign to say that the salad contains shellfish. The staff were not bothered that I was suffering from an allergic reaction and made no attempt to help or even speak to me. Will never go there again.

Came here one night for something to eat. Not much left when we arrived, some containers only had scraps in. Some were refilled but they just tipped the new food over the scraps and mixed it in! No puddings left other than ice cream. Not great.

First time we've visited Carlisle and stayed at a hotel literally next door to this restaurant. We arrived at our hotel just before 7pm, dumped our luggage and went for a walk to see where and what we could eat as both my husband and I were starving. As we passed we looked in the window and it seemed busy enough and the prices in the window for a Friday night was ÂŁ15.99 per person. It was 8pm we went in, they quickly served us, explaining we have to order our drinks at the bar before being shown to our seat, at the bar they charged us for our meals and drinks, before we sat down. A few minutes later a server comes to our table with our drinks, a cutlery set of a fork, knife and pudding spoon, (no soup spoon, but maybe they had spoons beside the soup), we certainly never saw any. Oh and two napkins. Head to the salad bar, this has to be the poorest salad bar I've ever seen, consisted of salad vegetables,sweetcorn, peppers, onions, tomatoes , jalapenos and I'm guessing what was potato salad and coleslaw, something that looked like vegetable sushi, there was no meat, cheese or egg etc. Most of the food was lukewarm, and not much left in the containers. Very limited choice, and as most of the food looked like it had been been sat for sometime, some of the dishes were floating in grease,. So sorry but no way could I eat that. When we were at the buffet we did see a sigh up telling people use the same cutlery throughout their meal but to change plates. After my boring salad I fancied my main course which was thai curry and boiled rice, they seemed to have run out of prawn crackers, this was at 8.15pm, so I asked the young server for more, only to be told "the kitchen is shut". Not wanting to cause a scene, I ate my curry, which was really tasty but would have tasted better had it been slightly more warmer. Now to my husband, all he could eat was chicken, I don't think he has eaten as much chicken in his life, (this was because most of the dishes had seafood, which Incidently I happen to enjoy. We ate up, went to leave and not a single person asked,did we enjoy our meal or said goodbye to us as we were leaving. A lot of money for lukewarm, greasy food that looks like it's been lying out for a good while in my option. To allow guests in at 8pm, when they were clearly, running their food down and not topping it up, or like us, could not get prawn crackers with their curry. Surely this should have been explained to us at the door. Yes the servers cleared our plates and not once did they ask if we were enjoying our meal, plus as I've already mentioned as we left not one person said goodbye, in particular the bar staff facing the exit door. Well really, why should they, they already had our money! Like I said, I will never return to this restaurant untill things vastly improve. All easy fixes as well, I hope the owners take heed and try to sort these issues out

We drove 20 miles to come here having checked their opening hours on google and on the website. We drove into town, paid to park and walked over for 20:00. We were met by the head waiter who told us that they now closed at 20:30 and stopped cooking at 20:00: so we could pay ÂŁ15 for leftovers, but only had half an hour to do so. I asked where their new opening hours were advertised as the board outside advertises to 21:30 still. On the door, below all the information is a printed piece of paper with the new hours. Around knee height. Itâs fine to change your hours. But at least be up front about it and change what your information says. Pretty poor to be honest.

Cheap and nasty Chinese buffet. We complained to the owner/ manager and he was so embarrassed about it we thought he was going to cry! One of the highlights of any Chinese meal is the crispy duck in pancakes - not here, they serve crispy chicken! Another disappointment was the sesame prawn toasts - except in here they serve sesame chicken toasts!. If you canât afford the real thing then donât bother - donât try to fob customers off and hope they donât notice! The fact that you have to pay upon entry should have been a major warning sign but unfortunately we stayed and were massively disappointed. We wonât be returning.

Certainly not the best buffet style restaurant I have been to. The first sign that it would be poor was the insistence on payment up front. The food offered was a small selection of chicken and pork dishes that were bland and lacking in flavour, with exception of the chicken curry. All sauces I tried were very thin and watery and the soups were the same. The fruit salad was sour and drinks, as normal in this type of restaurant, very over priced

The food is still as nice as always. Usually always fresh or doesn't take long before it is refilled with fresh, quality food. The mens toilets are clean enough (for a blokes bathroom anyway). Slight change to paying and seating now as you now pay at the bar before being seated (I'm fine with this and think it's fair enough as it saves alot of hassle for the restaurant as I've been in once or twice and a seen a couple scruffy clowns try and dodge paying for their meal). The only thing I can really ask be improved is to offer a high chair to any family that comes in with a young child/toddler as twice now I've not been offered one and had to go and grab one myself , no idea if they have been sanitised prior to me grabbing this or not. If it's a covid thing that's fine but the waiter or waitress needs to say this otherwise it just annoys people. I have still left a 5 star review because overall it's clean, well prepared & tasty aswell as decent value for money.

Called in to the Shanghai Shanghai Oriental Buffet for the evening Buffet on the 29th Jan 2020, Before we sat down, we were asked what drinks we wanted , Didn't even get the chance to take our coats off.Disappointed to find that the duck for the pancakes are now replaced with very dry chicken.One good thing which we did like was the mussels and salted Spare ribs/and normal spare ribs, After that the food went down hill face, You could see new cooked food mixed with old food and the sweet and sour pork/chicken was just mush in batter, No real chicken.for ÂŁ10.50 each, It was not worth it IMO, I will not be going back and it does not compare to other cities, Maybe that's why the food tasted cheap and nasty, No real competition in the city

Just getting back from this Chinese Buffett and it is the worst I have ever been to, went for 7.45pm greeted nicely and shown our table, place seemed spacious plenty of empty tables, now I know why, I wouldnât recommend going at this time or later as they turn people away after 8.30pm as they donât top up the food, had to ask for a few things, but no fresh food was brought out, so what we got was slops and dried up food, did read reviews and thought it canât be that bad, well it is, and no sea food, Except for scabby shrimps and empty muscle shells, no crispy duck, did have crispy chicken and it was crispy, and just thinking there were no prawn crackers but there were some scattered amongst some chicken, we were out of there within half an hour and will not be going back, defiantly not worth the money, very disappointed.

I have had better buffets for the price. Soup was cornstarch and the prawns were not even chew able. It was a complete rip off and im not entirely how its a buffet you would expect it to have a large quantity as well as variety. My mother was not at all satisfied with the meal, and for the price paid the quality of the food from all these people surely should increase. This review is not trying to be a rant of such but rather a way of expressing that the buffets standards for the customers are really low which is a disappointment rationing the prawns bit by bit across the seafood curry aswell as the cooked prawns. But I disagree with the price, I would've paid more for nandos rather then this. The dinner is more expensive then the lunch only because of the chicken and pancakes.

Ate here with our adult son on our first trip to Carlisle. The restaurant was reasonably busy but we were seated quickly. I found there to be a good selection of dishes and it compares well to other similar buffet style restaurants we have visited. I found the price for both the food and the drinks to be very reasonable.
