TOPS Buffet in Manchester

staff are so friendly and welcoming, food is very tasty

So been to tops few times over the years, last time I had food poisoning and now went back as been long time talking things will change. Had little amount of food and been sick when I got home. Services was lot of crap slow as anything and no want to order drinks as you have to do it yourself. Not worth the Money or services 1-10

Arrived at 9 when they close at 10 and was told by the girl on the desk in a condescending manner that “we’re closed” while literally eating and licking her fingers. Never had a more random obnoxious experience. The staff seemed like they were taking the piss and not happy to be there.

Some of the food was not cooked and not much option

When we arrived the girl at the front desk could not have been more helpful, we were offered a look at the dishes before paying our diner entry fee. There was plenty of food, however due to the time we arrived we were advised they would not be replenishing the dishes. The food in the bain Marie was tasty although a bit dry. The staff taking the drinks orders really do need a course on customer service. We did have an okay experience at the end of the day for what we paid we probably could have had something better elsewhere.

Very poor quality food and at 9pm the desert select was very tired and not at all appealing looking :( Have been here before and food was much nicer looking and a lot fresher so not sure if just gone down hill a lot or jus this visit but either way would not recommend at all

There is something for everyone and very affordable

absolutely terrible. got food poisoning from the chicken, went with other people and most of them who also ate the chicken said they feel sick. thrown up the day after, whilst we were there there were flies hovering around all the food. drinks are a ridiculous price and definitely not worth it. staff are rude and pressure you into buying drinks saying things like 'are you buying drinks now or later' when we didnt want one at all and constantly coming over to us when we made it clear we didnt want a £4 pint of coke. ended up ordering one anyway to get them to go away and they still found a reason to come over to us, pressuring us to leave when we had around 30 whole minutes left in the buffet. staff must be bored out of their minds to want to harrass a group of teenagers. definitely avoid. awful food and terrible service. stay clear.

The staff is so rude. No way I am coming back here. Very bad experience

Racist restaurant. I'm white. The black waitress took drink orders from blacks, but we had to go to the bar as whites.

If you are hungry and don’t know what you want to eat, go here! It is a little loud as it is a huge hall, not really a romantic place. A huge variety of food and drink the all you can eat menu is £24 drinks not included, for an adult.

One of the best buffets I have had! Great salad selection (the grilled pineapple is a very welcome addition!) and plenty of meat choices including lamb ribs. Deserts are fantastic too. Tap water is also available but not noted on menu.

I Don’t Often Write A Review About Anything But This Time I Have Too This Is Probably Worst Experience I Ever Had In Tops They Put Us The Most Cramp Place As Possible They Were 11 Of Us Went I Bought Some Candles And Sparkle Candles To Use For The Birthday Cake They Use They Own Because It Might Set Off The Fire Alarm And Not Even One Person Came To Us If You Wanted A Drink So We Had Water Where The Food Are And One Of My Friends Who Went Tonight Bring Sick When She Came Home Definitely Won’t Be Going There Again Any Time Soon

I recently visited Top Buffet in Manchester, and it was a great experience. The sheer variety of food was impressive, with stations offering everything from Indian curries to Chinese stir-fries and even freshly made sushi. I loved being able to try a bit of everything, and the quality of the dishes was surprisingly good for a buffet. The atmosphere was lively but not too crowded, and the staff were attentive, making sure everything stayed stocked and the tables were clean. It’s a fantastic place if you’re dining with friends who all have different tastes or just want to indulge in a little bit of everything!

Really lovely experience, food is always cooked fresh. Not usually an issue, slight issue with undercooked pizza dough last night, mentioned it to staff who took it off and recooked a new one and let me know immediately. All other food was amazing. Teppanyaki, carvery, pizza, sushi, Chinese, Indian... allsorts!

Some good food on offer, decent amount of dishes.

The place was Jammed pack, quick service for drinks, waiting in line for the buffet 😋 all in all was a good experience

Veggie options ain’t the best. We Got stuck in an area which must be an over flow due to wheelchair not being able to go on the main floor , it’s a bit grim up there and the wheelchair user was unable to access the food area to pick what food the wanted, felt a bit discriminatory See attaché photo of the seating area where fabric was ripped and seen better days

This place is huge! Well worth a visit if you like buffet dining

Shocking is not the word!! My 13 year old daughter who is a full time wheelchair user gets told she can't use the lift to access the food because her wheelchair is to heavy!! DISCRIMINATION to disabled people!! I will be taking this matter further and making sure everyone knows !! Very upset THANK YOU for ruining my daughters day! 😡😡😡😡

Lovely place with a good atmosphere, however, the food choices are limited, no sea food, dessert table had no fresh fruits and cakes were frozen inside.

Arrived at 21.20, was told on the desk they stopped putting out food at 22.00 and closed at 22.30. Got in, was seated. Drinks orders where taken. Drinks came. Collected a plate of with some sushi on and a the smallest bowl of chicken and sweetcorn soup. Went up to the teppanyaki counter ordered steak and squid, 10 minute wait. The squid tasted extremely fishy (not how squid tastes) I love squid and have eaten it for over 20 years, this was the first time I've not been able to eat it, it tasted off. I got back up, to be told very rudely (at 22.00) that food was being packed away and we wouldn't be able to get anything else. To add insult to injury we were unable to use the toilet as they closed them at 22.00 (or before). With over an hours drive home, feeling hungry, feeling out of pocket, desperate for the toilet, and wondering if we'll end up with food poisoning... would 100% stay away!!

I recently visited TOPs World Buffet in Manchester, and my experience left much to be desired. From the outset, the restaurant was uncomfortably hot, making it difficult to enjoy the meal. The temperature inside felt more like a sauna than a restaurant, and it seemed like the air conditioning was either malfunctioning or simply not up to the task. The food itself was substandard, lacking in both quality and freshness. Many of the dishes tasted bland and unappetizing, and it was clear that some had been sitting out for far too long. Despite the wide selection, the variety didn’t compensate for the overall lack of quality. To make matters worse, the service was frustratingly disorganized. I had to ask five different staff members just to get a pair of chopsticks, and no one seemed to understand my request when I asked for a small mixing bowl for the wasabi and soy sauce. Without a bowl, I ended up having to pour the condiments directly onto my plate, which ruined my meal as everything became overly saturated and unpleasant to eat. The atmosphere was chaotic and noisy, more akin to a school canteen than a restaurant. The tightly packed tables and high noise levels made it difficult to relax and enjoy the meal. Overall, my visit to TOPs World Buffet was disappointing. The uncomfortable heat, subpar food, disorganized service, and chaotic atmosphere make it a place I would not recommend or visit again.

Food wasn't nice. Most of the Waiters were sweaping the floor with the brush and was serving with the same unwashed hands. honestly.

Loved being able to choose a wide variety of food, everyone in the family happy even the picky ones. Toilets not very clean despite there being a lady by them with a tip jar, and the place was noisy too - recommend headphones for those with sensory issues. Went on a Saturday and would happily go again

An amazing buffet restaurant with a plethora of different dishes and deserts

Not worth the money £21.5 “dinner” and same boring food that you would normally find in a Chinese buffet, boring desserts and dry sushi. Ice creams and individuals cups

Brilliant food, brilliant atmosphere and a regular place that we visit. Great place to fill your tummy.

Myself and my husband came for the first time and were not disappointed. The food is outstanding and so much choice. It was all cooked really well and tasted freshly made. It was really busy but that was because it was a Saturday night so I think we’ll try and weekday next time. The staff were friendly enough but just wanted to get your drinks orders and then get your money. You pay for the food before you’re seated and drinks are pay as you go table service. Would recommend and will definitely be returning.

Great value for money. Excellent variety and outstanding quality food. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. I would say book in advance as it gets busy. Excellent value for money.

We went on the 23rd of August for my 21st birthday. It was a party of 6. The blonde woman on the front of house who took our money was really rude didn’t really greet just demanded our money. We spent the first 45 minutes enjoying our food until the youngest of our party (10) began feeling sick and immediately went to the toilet and threw up. There was a lovely woman who sits in front of the bathroom entrance who came in and checked up on us. After we had left the bathroom we got our stuff and left. As we are walking literally around the corner to the Q car park, the youngest is still violently throwing up every few steps and that’s when it becomes apparent something is wrong because another person in our group begins to do the same. We now have two people throwing up. We all go home. I then get a message around 9-10pm in our groupchat starting up a conversation saying that everyone else is being sick and even experiencing diarrhoea. My youngest brother is still experiencing this too. Me and my partner went to bed before waking up around 12-1am throwing up and having bad stomach. I suffer from Crohn’s disease so this was even worse and is still evident not just with me but everyone. We all have made a report to Manchester City council food hygiene report line. I rang up at 12pm today on the 24th to ask for the manager, where the front of house woman said he is a meeting, he will reply to my email ive sent when he is free. I have just rang up at 2:47 pm for an update on wether the manager is free. The woman on the phone was disgustingly rude and said “yea well it’s a long meeting” I then have told her to inform the manager we have contacted city council and she replied “well haven’t had any complaints apart from you lot it’s probably a virus” I have contacted 111 last night and they say it is most likely food poisoning and for us to make our way down to a&e if it gets worse or wait till Monday for the gp to do a stool sample. I then say to her it’s not just us, you can read the reviews online there is multiple people experiencing the same thing. I would like to speak to the manager not front of house. She then says ok and that is the end of call. My brother and partner also said they seen a family picking the food up with their hands and just been downright disgusting. We are all so upset as it was a birthday party and want a refund haven’t got much hope for it especially with the way we have been treated.

The restaurant was very crowded with not much space between the tables. The selection of food was OK but it all tasted very salty. The staff were very polite, which was the only positive from the overall experience! The toilets were quite untidy - I would not revisit the restaurant, unfortunately

I was in Manchester for a conference and I went for dinner at TOPS with some work colleagues. The food was a fixed price (£21 per adult) and there was an excellent selection...indeed far too many types of food for me to possibly eat in one sitting, but what I selected was nicely cooked, tasty and served at the right temperature. The dishes were being regularly restocked and topped up and everything looked fresh and appetising. I didn't try any of the desserts, instead sticking to various Asian dishes in one part of the restaurant. The restaurant was busy and the seating was a little 'cosy' but it wasn't really a problem. Drinks are not included in the price. It's decent value for central Manchester if you are feeling hungry enough to have a few platefuls. Overall a pleasant dining experience.

The food is delicious with plenty of options available. The pricing is more than fair, the drinks in here have always been awful with off brand cola/lemonade/orange add that taste like dish water. We just generally get the water from the fountain near the back.

never had a cold sore in my life i ate here yesterday and have woken up with one on my mouth🤢i’ve been near nobody that has a cold sore or has even recently had one and im not one to share a drink or anything like that i feel sick🤮

Eveyone will find something for themeselves

Great place to eat, was a bit busy so had to wait for a bit. The drinks service was very long, had to wave and ask twice. The food was set up and some really nice. Felt the price was quite a lot for the amount eaten. Had a normal size meal. The deserts didn't even touch all looked bad.

It’s buffet with a lot of food. For the price, it’s ok quality of food.

One of the worst dinners I've ever had. Poor quality

Only four stars because the drinks waiter kept pestering to be paid for the drinks rather than return when we had finished eating. That was the only negative.

Excellent buffet with lots of choice: Indian, Asian, grill, pancakes, etc. There is something for everyone! A bit noisy atmosphere though.

I personally prefer vegetarian food and there were many options for me. Water is free! The mushrooms are awesome

Lovley place well priced good choice if dishes. Very polite attentive staff clean classy will defo return. A pleasure to gobusy but yet not noisy

Very varied food for all tastes, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Italian. We are missing some fish and seafood. The desserts are excellent. The waiters are great.

Went here after an event with friends and family, paid and took us to our table, it was hot! We were pushed in all 10 of us on a table with tables and chairs all around us, it was very busy loud and hot! Said we only had 1 and half hours to eat up! Felt so rushed and when ordered drinks they were straight on us to pay whilst eating our food. Que for toilet was long! Que for steak table was long also, constantly being bumping into people getting up out of seats and whilst going getting food, the food was ok, good variety with some food hit and miss, the lady who does the sprays of Deodorants near the toilets was sooo lovely!! She helped us with the long ques at the toilet. Such a shame as we may have come back but i don't think we will this time

Definitely do not recommend, food is not great, price speaks for itself. Do not waste your time.

Arrived today for the 1st time, a party of 5, a staff member put 3 x double tables together which resulted in manager being unhappy. Lovely food, nice atmosphere. MANAGER was EXTREMELY RUDE, ARGUMENTATIVE, & IGNORANT - has selective hearing also. 1 of the waitresses was also ill-mannered. Asking us to pass plates to next table for her yet forgot her manners. A simple please really makes the difference. Manners are free.

Really nice place - exceptional choice of food. Loads of halal options and clearly marked. Very enjoyable time. Will definitely go again. Price really good too.

The finest buffet we have been to

Wide variety of cuisines, tasty, the teppanyaki is great. Staff attentive. It’s a very chaotic place though and sadly this is to do with people letting their kids run wild around the place. The staff there need to get a grip of that if the parents/guardians can’t, and also stopping them messing around with the food at the buffet.

Really bad food wouldn’t recommend. Genuinely worst buffet I’ve been too

The staff were quite decent. Always cleaning the second a chip would fall on the floor as we went to get more they would collect our finished plates quite impressive. The trays of food was never empty. However wen we 1st sat down the server was stood over us waiting for our drink order. I got panicked and ended up ordering a shot by accident but we told them and they quickly changed it into a proper drink. Not totally there fault but would prefer if they gave us a sec to read the menu. The food was awful all of the meat I ate was very dry and some was rubbery. The pizza was dry as anything. It was not great I wouldn't rush back. Everything I had from the dessert section was vile. They're was a list of the treats however wasn't next to the cakes so couldn't tell wich was wich. The marshmallows had been sat for so long and tasted awful. Would not recommend save ur money and go somewhere else.

Only thing good about this place is the marshmallows and chocolate. Awful food

It's a very good atmosphere but the price isn't very good

Took hubby for a meal with my winnings from chester racecourse the day before

Really nice meal, waiters attentive, prices good.

We had some higher expectation of the place based on the website and marketing, Food: some average some bad, some quite nice The cutlery were cheap, and they felt as such, however somehow I can't blame them. Ambient/location was quite nice to luxurious which shows the potential of the place, excluding the table signs which we had to hide as they were miserable... management please. Overall it was a fairly nice experience, and we'd love to see some higher quality next time even if that means raising the price, as this has Huge potential.

Busy, plenty of choice for food

Nothing Special, infact I was quite disappointed, a lot of the food was stale and dry, real shame for the money they charge.

Great buffet restaurant, we had lunch @ £22 each and there’s nothing they don’t have, good quality too- drinks are reasonably priced too I had the Indian lamb curry think it was one of the nicest I’ve ever had, the prawns in my vid were delish too The only criticism is some staff need to cheer up a bit, some were I’d say slightly grumpy Desserts are another level too so save some room

not the best buffet but not the worst🤷‍♀️ good points : staff upon entry with the tickets were welcoming, they have lots of options of different foods alot of different chinese food choices compare to the likes of cosmos. the lady at the pancake section was lovely and the pancakes there were great! bad points : some of the food was very cold, i served up a bowl of sweetcorn soup and it was stone cold with no flavour. there is to much signs about food waste to the point where its off putting and makes you uncomfortable. any sensible person shouldn't be ram packing the plate anyway if it wont get eaten😅

Very busy but once you're in and sat down make sure you're hungry! Would recommend a visit. We pre booked which I would also recommend. Not a bad place but the usual cattle market type service, i.e. people barging in front of you etc. and as it is buffet you always wonder about kids touching the food.

Wouldn't recommend this place. Worst buffet I have ever been. Never going back.

Lots of choice but very basic dishes. Some of the dishes looked like they were cheap cuts of meat, fatty and extremely chewy. We were packed in like sardines, very busy place . It was ok but wished we had made the effort to go into China Town as it’s only a few streets away. If you want mass produced , cheap, refillable food, this is for you. Anything more special, go to CT

Food was okay, nothing special and most of the food was hard and cold. We found a long blonde/white hair IN our doughnut, baked into the dough. When we raised this with management they just said sorry and took the plate of food. They said that none of the people in the kitchen are blonde and they all wear hair nets, so it must've been a customers hair, which doesn't make sense as the hair was inside the doughnut. Not happy at all with this, made us feel ill and put us off our food.

Ok I definitely won’t be going to this place again first time and last being honest if only my partner seen the view he’s been a few times with his family and today he was treating me for a meal with the mothering law and my daughter and it’s my daughter first time my partner and my daughter and my mothering in law had belly acen and went to toilet a few time I didn’t eating much as just everything I tried was ever cold too fatty salty some of the food was bland the moral of the story last nights warmed up food basicly and ever in last comments. not one staff came to the table to see if the food ok or did we need anything to get up to go bar ask for drinks and the security guard standing at the door as we was crossing the road the security guy on the door had his hand in his pocket scratching is privates so yes who goes here please read comments before u go I won’t going again Please please please don’t go To this place and yes the food is disgusting and desserts jelly there’s no flavours and the banana and custard and peaches and pinaapple looked like it had been there for days no thank avoid avoid BIG LETTER DONT GO HERE!!!!

Food quality has gone down hill, definitely would avoid.

Very elegant all you can eat restaurant in the heart of Manchester with affordable prices and large variety of tasty foods.

Some of the food was lovely but others were less impressive. The servers would come while you’re eating to clear plates instead of doing it once you’d got up for more food, they also interrupted us while eating to pay for our drinks. Had a fly on my straw in the drink and they changed it for a new drink as soon as we asked.

Very good service. The food is also very tasty.I highly recommend

My 1st time visiting TOPS based on a recommendation and i couldn’t fault it. There is a time limit and at 1st you think you’re going to be rushing but 1 hour 30 is more than enough time to eat as much as you like without rushing. The variety of food was fantastic and was always being topped up. The desserts weren’t really as exciting as the main courses but that was fine with me! Would definitely recommend.

Expensive and the food wasn't up to standard disappointed the tikka masala was big square chunks of chicken and the sauce was like pee water no flavour and beef in black bean sauce the meat was too thick like grizzle no spices I could go on.

Dreadful. There were small children running everywhere, even climbing up onto the buffet areas trying to get the food - which is on trays! All Chinese and Indian food was so spicy it was inedible. Really disappointed for £21.00!

Thought it was over priced and the food was not upto standard.

No one answered the phone. I want to make a reservation. 20.36pm Sunday 16thJune24

Brought my daughter here for her birthday. (Party of 9.) On arrival everything was fine. Food was nice table service staff were polite. Food was not very hot though. Then we accused of not paying for one of our guest, three staff members came to the table saying we needed to pay. They said they couldn't find our ticket. Showed them the reciept on the online banking. But this had ruined the atmosphere. Needless to say I wont visit this place again.

Nice food lovely place bit to busy

Most of the dishes are ok .no taste of main dishes or desserts .

Says closes at 10pm in fact closes at 8 website still allows you to book a table but will be turned away at door would not recommend

A very bad experience for my family. Poor food and service. - Garlic bread was still frozen making it inedible - Some cakes were still frozen or stale - The water was warm - Stacks of raw meat being processed near our table - Flies being swatted over the food - Ridiculously salty food Don't bother visiting this place. There are far better places to spend £20 per head in Manchester.

Lovely food, attentive staff and booking is recommended. Been a couple of times and not been disappointed.

Wide variety of food £21 per person eat as much as you want 😋 2 years since my last visit to this buffet and the price as only gone up by £1:00 I took my son for his birthday and had a really nice time the food was better then the last visit .Wide variety of food English Chinese and Indian also 🍕 and sushi. Pleanty of choice of deserts mostly all English.Drinks and cocktails are pricey only over all no complaints looking forward to our next visit hopefully it will be in the very near future as with the cost of living theses days this place is very good value for money I'd recommend it to anyone that enjoys eating out

Good choice of food, everything was hot

It was an amazing experience. The whole place looks beautiful and the food is extremely good. I would totally recommend this to those that want to try Asian food. 10/10 service.

I won’t be rushing back here anytime soon. I went up for a serving of the teppanyaki with my partner and it took us 30 minutes to get the food due to there being only one chef on a busy Saturday night. To make matters worse, during that time our table was given up. I went over to the waitress to ask about the table and she was extremely rude and unhelpful, saying it was our fault that we were away so long even though we were in line for food. Fortunately, the manager helped get us another table and replenished our drinks which had been thrown away. The buffet was good however the customer service really let it down.

I WOULD NOT GO THERE AGAIN SERVICE WAS REALY BAD WE WENT ON THURSDAY EVENING 8PM RESTAURANT CLOSES 10:30PM WE EATING PLATES WHERE NOT PICK UP WHILE U GETTI G MORE FOOD REMEMBER IT A BUFFE RESTAURANT AT ABOUT 9PM WHILE EATTING WAITERS & WAITER CANE DESTURBING USE WHIKE EATING BY ASKING TO PASS THE MENUS FROM TABLE THEN WAITER CAME AROUND 9:25PM ASKING DO U WANT ORDER ANY DRINKS WE CLOSING SOON THE RESTAURANT WAS NOT BUSY ONLY FEW TABLES THE RESTAURANT CLOSES 10:30PM STILL OVER 1 HOUR THEY WAITER MADE USE FELL UNCOMFORTABLE & PUTTING PRESSURE ON USE MAKING USE NOT WELCOME KEEP STAIRING AT USE & 10PM CAME TO OUR TABEL AGAIN BY TELLING USE WE CLOSING SOON VERY U PROFESSIONAL & SPECIALY THE MANAGER WHO IS U PROFESSIONAL & ROUD YOU NEVER TELL CUSTOMER TO PASSMENU WHILE EATING OR PRESSURE THEM WHILE EATTING WELL BEFORE CLOSING TIME I EXPLAIN MANAGER YOU CLOSE AT 10:30PM IT JUST AFTER 10PM YOU WAIT TILL CUSTOMER FINISH EATING & GO YOU DONT PRESSURE THE.

Went with the kids all had a great time

One of our favourite places. They have a lot of food to choose from. Not suitable for vegans maybe ok for vegetarians but it is mostly a meat place. Busy most of the time so I would recommend booking a table.

Absolutely fantastic end of season get together for league referee's in perfect hands

The food was probably the best I've had for buffet style, enduring had flavour and was cooked to perfection. Only downside would be the desserts which the cakes were not as tasty as they look. I think even having some South Asian desserts would be good or even some East Asisn desserts would have been good addition.

They charged me twice for the same food, because supposedly the machine rejected my debit card but when I checked my bank statement it was not like that

They keep the air con on really low and the place is roasting probably to get you to buy more drinks

Great value for money! I can't stress this enough. I will definitely be revisiting.

We came for dinner. In general, this place is decent. However I have been to better places with the same price range; but we will come back for sure if we want some buffet in Man. Personally I really like: - green beans (not many places have it) - Sushi corner with the crunchy seaweed - Seafood thai green curry - beef in bean sauce Here, there are two types of pork ribs and I don’t really like both of them. I wish they would make it in a stew to have soft tender ribs rather dry one with salt and pepper. The salad session also nice but I can’t have them coz they already mixed with sauces. I prefer fresh salad. They have a few style of chix wings, and I again, I wish they have better flavours rather than breaded. They have grilled wings but it tasted weird to me. The staff are also attentive (not very busy on the day we visited). Ambience is defintely good. Tables are quite close togeher but I don’t see any problem. Thank you

So massive food lovely lots of choice

The food is ok, there is no service with a smile, it's getting your food and leave by the time your table states, felt pressurised where you can't not enjoy your night out as you need to eat and leave pronto. Also I complained as one of the chefs was swotting flies with a fly bat over the sushi food - disgusting. It's expensive for what you get. They have Indian food - not sure who puts coconut in chicken tikka masala as this surely does not go in there, nans were hard due to being placed under the lamps on the counter. Italien is a few pizza Slices. We will not be going back.

Amazing spread, sumptuous food, great ambience, and warm staff. What an amazing buffet.

My first visit but won't be my last. All you can eat menu at a great price. Everything was amazing. Great food and friendly staff. Went for a birthday with 12 other people. Only thing that was not so good was the chips. Even when freshly served they were naff supermarket chips . Hard and dry so not 5 stars sadly but other than that tops is tops.

Not suitable for vegetarians and definitely out the question for vegans. Ate at Tops last night. I am a vegetarian and chose this restaurant because when I ate meat and visited before, I remembered how many choices there had been and figured there must be some good vegetarian choices. This was not a correct assumption. There are limited options for vegetarians in all styles of cuisine. In the Chinese section, you have spring rolls, mushrooms (which we all agree are the devil's food), and green beans. And noodles of course. That's it. Two plates of noodles and vegetables with some sauce on didn't feel like I'm getting great value for money. In the Indian section, they had 6 curries, all of which had meat. Not a single offering. Their samosas were a rare highlight of the options though. Super tasty. For pizza, we did get garlic bread and margarita pizza, which actually were fine but after a couple slices of each, it was filling and if I'd have wanted pizza, I'd have gone to an Italian. In the roast dinner section there was a little bit more, potatoes, sweetcorn, mash, but the gravy had bits in it that definitely weren't gravy, and noone was really eating at this section so the food looked a bit... Dry. Then there's the fresh grill section, which had five offerings including gyoza - which were chicken. Massive missed opportunity there. I almost forgot to mention, all the dim sum was meat. And the puddings weren't labelled, so I just had some ice cream. It was also very hot. From a service POV, when I sat down, a wait person came over and asked me what I'd like to drink about 3 seconds later. I asked them to come back in a couple of minutes so I could see the drinks menu. They did not find back and I had to approach them to ask for a drink. All in all, it wasn't the best experience I've had at a buffet restaurant. So many opportunities for good vegetarian food across the cuisines; stir fried vegetables, dumplings, daal, vegan meat replacements, labelled puddings. For meat eaters I'd say it's definitely worth a go, but for vege or vegan, go elsewhere.
