The Real China in Welwyn Hatfield

Food is very nice, not that expensive but not so cheap either, overall it's good 👍

Pretty good! Good quality and low price, taste No.1

We come here at least three or four times a week. It is considered a big canteen for our international students...very good👍!

Nice Chinese restaurant buffet I. Hatfield Galleria!

Food was amazing staff so kind helpful and food hot as always thank you again for your hospitality

Food is soooo good! Lunch is bargains!

We went for a buffet lunch where the receptionist Yan greeted us warmly and was very friendly. We waited less than five minutes to be seated. The buffet offered a great variety of dishes for the price, and the food was delicious.

Good value, friendly service and good food.

Excellent! We love going here for the buffet. So many options & everything is really good. There's plenty of things for picky kids too!

Really relaxing and nice food and service too

That’s good and great buffet all this times..!!

I feel very good not only quantity of food but also everyone is earnest

Variety of tasty dishes served as a Buffet meal including desserts 🍨 by friendly staff. Could install a powerful hand drier in the toilets 🚻! 3.1.25 Ordinary tasting buffet food with staff eager to clear tables when diners have not yet finished their meal & have to be reminded to replace sauce bottles & napkins which have run out!

Good morning from table 16 - significant quality reduction from previous visits. Sharp decline in food quality only borderline edible. Worse food for the same price. Shockingly bad. Bedtbyibsgoif

Had to pay the bill before we even sat down talk about untrustworthy😝

A fabulous Buffet with an a la carte menu available to. The food is always excellent - we have been going every month for over a year. Staff are always so friendly, professional and attentive. Undoubtedly the best Chinese Restaurant I have been to that serves a buffet and is cost effective.

Such good value. Food excellent. Good range for vegetarians. Staff so helpful and friendly.

I thought the food this time round was not that great. Staff are polite, though.

Not even close to Chinese taste. Quite bad. The chicken satay is just fried chicken piece. Sweet and Sour is just red food colouring

Ordered a takeaway, delivery was over an hour late. All the food was really greasy. The beef was mostly gristle plus it was all cold. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

the order was cold the beef was tuff and grisly and very greasy couldn't eat.

Asked for a la carte menu. Food was much more better than the buffet.

I went to Real China Buffet a few years ago and I was very disappointed with everything, last night I said I'd try again and I was quite badly impressed again. Most of their selection had a burnt taste and some were actually burnt, the dessert selection looks awful, you can see that they were cheap products bought from the supermarket in boxes and then unpacked and put on a tray for display. To be honest, it's not worth the money and if you really want to enjoy an "All you can eat buffet" , it's better to pay a few extra bucks and go to a quality buffet.

I ordered a chicken and sweetcorn soup for takeaway, It was absolutely disgusting and watered down, Will never order from here again..

Was ok. It is what it is a Chinese buffet. The staff are friendly and welcoming, This is the 3rd time we've been. The food wasn't as good as the first time. But it was nice, I will probably go again some day.

Very nice food except one of the noodles were quite dry and undercooked and the dessert had basically been finished by the time we had got there. The pepsi was basically flat and I would’ve probably been better off with tap water. Nice ish restaurant though

End of shopping treat! A short wait for a table but well worth it. Friendly accommodating staff and tasty, quality food. Plenty of staff to either take additional orders or clear your empty plates for more. Food was plentiful and fresh, and the final positive, great value for money! Thanks, we will be back..

Really friendly staff Amazing selection on the buffet

SHOCKING is the only polite word I can think of to use on here.

First reviewed a few years back when imo opinion, it was pretty good on an evening. But I went again late 2024 and I am now going to have to revise my ratings downward.

Food looks lovely but tastes cheap & nasty, noodles were mushy, Singapore noodles were hard, beef was very fatty, pancakes were like cardboard & greens were cold. Was very disappointed with the food quality as it all looked better than tasted. Both myself & my husband got home & had diarrhoea instantly. Staff was pleasant & restaurant was clean. This is our personal opinion.

Very good food, service from staff was friendly and professional.

Not the best chinese food I have ever had but its Very good chinese for a all you can eat buffet. Best to go at weekend or after 5 as the best food options are avalable then.

Delicious food. Friendly staff. The restaurant is always clean and cozy.

This is a good place for those who seek a Chinese buffet. Not a lot of items, but the available food is really good. Service is really good by friendly staff I think it is slightly overpriced, but it is a good place, and I will visit again.

They said there is a glass noodle but no noodles at all just pork and I don’t know what was another thing

Reasonable price very friendly staff happy to assist you wherever they can food was nice

I'm sure the place knew better times Poor choice, poor food , poor quality

Unfortunately I had to give 1 star as none was not an option .. cold food hardly any options .. really gone down hill .. watched staff blow there nose then pick at the food with bare hands and eat it … after years of using that’s the lot never again

I had ordered a delivery and they forgot to pack an item. When I called the guy on line he vehemently denied. He blamed the poor delivery guy which is very unfair. He lied to me that he is the manager and lied that he had packed 9 items. But truth is there 10 items delivered and 11th missing. The problem was he was impolite and did not admit his mistake and kept blaming the delivery guy who was not there to defend. Please take action and remove such dishonest people.

Really bad experience!! There was a missing item and I called the restaurant. The guy vehemently denied mistake was from his part and lied he was the manager. He blamed the delivery guy. He also lied saying that 9 items were delivered but 10 were delivered and 1 was missing. Really impolite and no effort to solve the issue. Later when we called he admitted that they had forgotten to pack the item. I really feel sorry how the delivery guy was blamed. This is very unfair and action needs to be taken

Not delicious. And also not having more options to choose very less items and not tasty and not worthy for money.

The culinary offerings provided are of a mediocre standard. The chicken dishes consistently exhibit an off-putting flavor. The prawn dishes, however, are commendable, and the rice and noodle dishes are reasonably satisfactory. The dessert options are limited and uninspired. Certain items, such as the cakes, appear to have been procured from a supermarket rather than crafted in-house. The quality of the ice cream is notably inferior. The pricing is generally competitive with other buffet establishments. The service and décor are satisfactory. The restaurant is conveniently located and offers ample parking within the shopping center. In conclusion, this establishment may be considered a viable option for individuals seeking to satisfy their hunger in a big way.

Meal served for 6 people with drinks included approximately 100 lire. The food is very good, you eat as much as you can, the service is top notch.

Lovely food for a good price,my pint of stella tasted a bit tangy,stick to bottled beer if I was you.

have been here many times good value for chinese all inclusive good selection most staff very helpful especially the man who welcomes you at the pay point the woman who replaces the food very unhelpful and rather off hand asked her for something said chef in kitchen too busy to get me soya sauce

Food was ok, did not have many spicy food (which is my preference) also the taste of the food was not average

Absolutely horrendous. Sugar in every dish. Tasteless food which was luke warm. Food poisoning waiting to happen. Tried to speak with manager about it but told they don’t have one.

Where do I start if there was a 0 scoring that's what they would get, the food was awful tryed some chicken curry, prawns and a few other things was cold some over cooked and some under cooked, the staff hover around you while trying to eat, on my return home myself and my partner started vomiting.never again we hope people read the reviews before going absolutely disgusting.

A great variety of food available

Food was 'ok'. My problem was with the 'desert' if you could call it that! Some basic ice cream, slices of orange (?) or some kids 'penny sweets' ie, foam bananas and shrimps, mini marshmallows or jelly beans!! No cakes, brownies,cheesecake, nothing!!! Asked a member of staff, he said you have to come back at the weekend for desert selection!!! No thanks buddy, won't be back, ever!!

food not bad, excellent service, clean surroundings, would come again.

I have no idea what happened with that place … disgusting and food poisoning 😔 in past it was so good and now less than 1 star… sorry

Food are just bad fir the price we pay

I haven't been here for a few years. It was clean, tidy and fresh. The staff were friendly and I was pleasantly suprised with the food. I would come back again.

Cost varies on the tiem you go. 11-3pm is 9.50 for an adult and about 5 pounds for kids. Then 5pm about 17 pounds for adults. Varieties of food available. Ice cream too. Meals are very hot. They also have kids varations. Their chicken nuggets are amazing. Ice cream on cone or cup and jelly beans. Their Oranges are amazing too

Thank you for the refund on the order that never arrived(23.96). However, you refunded the Oder that arrived 21.76GDP

Staff lovely, especially the guy who greeted us. Felt at ease, in a place we've never been. Food was all 10/10. Gutted we live so far away 😢

If you’re absolutely hungover, this place will feel like a mirage in the dessert. If you want to go for a nice meal…. Please, go somewhere else! At the end of the day, it’s a Chinese buffet in the Galleria so Im not sure why I was expecting anything more than a 1/10 but there we go. The only good thing about this place is the service, the prawn crackers and the cucumber. Don’t bother!

Good value for a midweek buffet lunch. The dessert sweets and the Ice cream were good. Did not like having to pay before eating the food, very extraordinary. Some items not refreshed after 14:30 despite closing at 15:30

Very good and plentiful Chinese buffet

Ok so after checking out a lot of mixed reviews about the real China here's my opinion on Saturday evening buffet. Walked into a busy restaurant got seen quickly and seated. Grabbed a plate and started collecting. After a my first plate my opinion the food was above good. Few choices needed a touch of flavour adding to it, Noodles, sweet and sour and a pork choice of which I can't remember the name of it but overall we were satisfied. Staff very friendly, service was good and food was 4 *.

The food was of a high quality and reasonably priced. The only very minor comment is that the plates were cold. This is not the first time we had visited the restaurant and will not be the last. The food was hot and well stocked.

The staff were brilliant and the food was delicious 😋

Really tasty, authentic Chinese food at a very reasonable price! Highly recommend a visit if you’re looking for Asian food in North West London

It was encouraging the man let us see the buffet before confirming yes we would like to dine. There is no service exactly as you help yourself. Only see staff take finished plates away. Good food

Delicious food with loads of choices. Great service. Place is very tidy and clean.

1st time hear & have to say was pleasantly surprised,food was good,tasty,Free refills. Staff was very friendly & helpful,good value for money will definitely be coming back.

Great food and on time would recommend to friends and family

For a Chinese restaurant, the rice and the vermicelli were extremely disappointing. The vermicelli was very dry and had a peculiar taste. The only thing I enjoy were the ribs. They are the best I have tasted.

Friendly staff. Food was bland. There was no real flavours and did not taste how Chinese does. Not overly impressed. Not bad but not good. Would not rush back but I would try another branch.

the best chinese restaurant in the galleria and good desert on the end 😀🍨

There is this good feeling about seeing a nice place to eat out at 1am It was fun

Firstly, their customer service is top-notch. Secondly, they have a variety of food you can choose from which comes in affordably. Thirdly, you can either take out anything you like in just a mini take out container for £6.5 or eat in and eat whatever you like and go as many rounds as you can for just £12. So cool 😎.

It was extremely great and delicious. The price is decent with high-quality food.

One of my dishes had meat, even though we had only ordered vegetarian dishes

Very convenient area, located in big shopping center. Price for lunch very good, 9.50£, you hardly can find same price anywhere around at all. Choice of food bit limited..which is disappointing..great service.

Food is awful. Dry, oily and no taste! Pepsi max refill tastes like some cheap flat Pepsi max! Don’t bother!

This place gave me food poisoning. Never go here. There were insects in my food.

The atmosphere here is good, however on this occasion the food was absolutely awful. 3 out of the 4 people who ate here tonight are now unwell, with nausea, headaches and generally feeling very unwell. The chicken did not taste right that my grand daughter had. She left it and just had ice cream and fruit. My daughter said the prawns tasted off and as if they had been cooked many times over. Sadly, we will not be returning here again, and that was £85 wasted. We did tell one of the waitresses the food did not taste good and she just smiled and said ok, walked off and nothing happened. We would not recommend any dishes at this restaurant, and as it is the start of the bank holiday weekend I hope their standards improve or there will be other customers becoming unwell.

Amazing customer service, thank you Pushpak !!!!

The Chinese call it "mixed rice." For £17 per person for dinner is exceptionally a good value for money. A huge variety of food with dessert options. The fried chicken is a banger.

Nice selection of ok tasting dishes. Super service too

Always love coming here with the family lots to choose from and price is great

Changed hands some time back...now when you enter..you pay before you sit down...does create bit of a queue. But it does fill up quickly...the quality of the food has changed and tastes alot better..maybe new chefs?

Chinese buffet eat as much as u like not a great choice but worth it's money

Lunch time meal. Plenty of food and added fresh as needed. Good value.

At £9.50 per head for an all you can eat buffet lunch, it's pretty good value in this present climate.

The food here is good but it is crazy busy. They did gift mothers day gifts to the mums which was a lovely touch. I would probably go during the week. Sunday was extremely busy.

A taste of oriental cuisine is available here. There is a great selection on their menu.

Good lunch buffet at a reasonable price point. Enough selection to keep most happy and items regularly refreshed

That has got to be the worst Chinese I have ever eaten,The chips were soggy,the spring rolls were tasteless and soggy and the egg fried rice I was looking for the egg in it

It was very unpalatable. Seeing that the D buffet was no longer appetizing, I chose to leave and ordered the boiled beef and spicy chicken. Top! It was extremely unpalatable! If you just want something to eat, there’s no harm in giving it a try!

Excellent quality and value. The quality of the food matches much more expensive restaurants

best chinese buffet! Always clean, tasty and warm welcome ! Definitely recommend

Food was nothing like I expected

This is what happened on this order at end. ※Order arrived 2 hours late from original estimate. ※Driver went missing and didnt turn up to restaurant for hour. Which also means order status of "driver waiting at restaurant" is wrong. (as per as restaurant told me) ※Order finally turn up after 3 hours after ordered but as result food already got cold due to driver not shown for long time. As we don't have microwave onsite, cannot reheat makes trouble. Food quality is perfectly nice but just-eat service this time be super awful.

Great Chinese buffet, at reasonable prices.. visit as often as I can

Price is great, but the food is just not worth it. Most of the stuff is overcooked - nearly burnt to be honest… The chicken and sweetcorn soup tastes like diabetes, someone mixed up the salt and the sugar. Overall feels a bit chaotic atmosphere and the food doesn’t even taste decent let alone good…..
