I recently visited a fantastic Chinese restaurant that offered an "all you can eat" experience. From the moment I stepped in, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming ambiance. The variety of dishes available was simply overwhelming! Their selection ranged from traditional classics like dim sum and Peking duck to more contemporary fusion dishes. The dim sum was definitely a highlight – delicate and flavorful, with a wide assortment of steamed and fried options. The Peking duck was succulent, served with perfectly crispy skin and accompanied by all the traditional condiments. I also enjoyed their noodle dishes and stir-fries, which were prepared with a perfect balance of flavors and textures. What I loved most was the attentive and friendly service from the staff. They were always ready to assist and offered helpful recommendations for newcomers like me. The "all you can eat" concept allowed me to try a variety of dishes without feeling rushed or limited. The only downside, if any, was that some of the dishes were not as hot as I would have preferred, but the restaurant quickly remedied this when I brought it to their attention. Overall, I had a delightful dining experience at this Chinese restaurant. The delicious food, welcoming atmosphere, and attentive service made it a memorable meal, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves Chinese cuisine and wants to indulge in a diverse and satisfying dining experience.

The food is to a good standard and with the buffet option unlimited, we started with prawn crackers followed by the house sharing starter and the seafood sharing starter, both were presented on one platter and we liked it all. As with every course we were offered more but declined. On to the crispy duck, unlike so many establishments they do provide sufficient pancakes, nothing worse than running out of pancakes and having have the duck left. We moved on to the mains, we chose a mixture of items, chicken, beef, prawns and pork plus rice and noodles. The service was good throughout and excellent value for £27.50 per head. Earlier in the week it is only £24.50. The restaurant was packed out, which shows how well it is regarded.

Food is decent and the surroundings inside are nice. However, the some of the food isn’t as good as the Cherry Valley in the same town, and this place is more expensive. I’m not saying it’s not decent. Far from it. Just saying there is better food at better value in St Ives

A very busy welcoming restaurant. The buffet menu was our choice and the starter platter was full of tasty items. Not sure how you eat crispy seaweed with chopsticks. All the rest was good. The shredded duck with pancakes and excellent hoisin sauce followed. We chose several dishes to share and almost finished them all. Even though we started at 6 o’clock the place was buzzing. A good sign. We will be back for sure. Tiger beer on tap was a bonus.

We called in without a booking on early Friday evening and managed to be squeezed in as long as we could be done in 1 hr... moral of that story is you ideally should book as they were fully booked on Friday and Saturday nights. OMG we had the buffet and it was absolutely delicious! Love that that have a gluten free, vegetarian snd vegan menus as well as the meat menu. The food is totally delicious! Had the best ribs and spring rolls we have ever eaten. You need to book and visit!

We ate here early evening on a Friday. The restaurant was already very busy, with families, couples and groups of friends. I was glad we’d booked in advance. The service was prompt and efficient, and despite how busy they were, our food arrived quickly. We ate al la carte, but by the looks of it the fixed price buffet is a very popular option. We’re veggie and found plenty of choice. The only thing I could pick fault in is the wine - £5 for a large glass of wine is pretty cheap these days. The Pinot Grigio I ordered wasn’t great - personally I’d rather pay a bit more and be able to get a better (nicer) wine. Other than that it was excellent. We’d definitely eat there again.

Visited here many times in the past. Went in July for my partners birthday. Always have a friendly welcome & great service. We opted for the buffet menu this time, unfortunately the majority of the started seem to be deep fried & the duck was so dry it was just a deep fried dry Crispy mess. Main courses were better. Perhaps it's the case that if you want decent food you need to order from the a la carte rather than the buffet menu.

Freinds recommendedd this resturant which we were sceptical of at first to be honest, having only eaten Chinese in Soho. Have to say it was much much better than expected. We tried the takeaway first and were happy with our choices, particularly the crispy aromatic duck and lamb with garlic. We then came as a family to try the buffet, (Tuesday to Thusrday evenings) where you order what you like from the menu for a flat rate of 20 per person and again were very happy with the food and service. Definitely a place to recommend.

Ate here during the week and really enjoyed it. Only 4 stars though as the crispy duck came out already shredded and there were no nice big chunks of meat. Other than that it was excellent and although I didn't coose the buffet option is looked really good and not much different to the food I had. It certained seems the best Chinese restaurant in St Ives but I liked Cinta in Godmanchester better where the crispy duck was shredded at the table. Service was excellent though and I loved the toffee banana fritters.

The place was very busy and we probably wouldn't have got a table had we not booked. The food was some of the best chinese fare we have eaten in a while, the chicken in black bean sauce was delicious and very plentiful, my wife thoroughly enjoyed her chicken in yellow bean sauce with cashews, these were accompanied by egg fried rice and fried noodles with beansprouts, again large helpings. The meal was finished off with a pot of jasmine tea, which actually had jasmine flowers in the mix.

Went to the Welcome Saturday for a birthday celebration meal we asked in advance for a table near the air con or by a window or door .When we arrived we were shown to seats not near the air con or window or door we said we had asked specifically to sit in a cooler area because of medical reasons but were told this was the only table available also the air con was not turned on the whole evening.The restaurant was very busy we ordered our hors d'oeuvre they came in reasonable time and were ok but of the normal standard we have been use to from the Welcome we finished the starter and had already ordered the main meal now the wait began we waited and waited until finally having to call the waitresses on several occasions whilst other diners that had arrived later than us were further on in thier meal than us.Finally the meal came and it was no where near the standard we have came to expect from the Welcome and had suffered because of how busy it was in the restaurant and the constant flow of people coming in for takeaway food.At the end of the meal we complained of how bad the service was and the sub standard food and the excuse was because of how busy they were which should not affect anyones experience.The manger agreed with our complaits and cut our bill by 65% but all in all this was a frustrating conforntational experience that spoilt our evening.

Over the last year, we have started going back to The Welcome again, after a not so good experience years ago, for family birthday celebrations.

We were recommended this Chinese and were not disappointed. Food is very nice and tasty. The restaurant itself is very clean, and welcoming. Staff were very accommodating for my partners vegetarian meal.

Phoned for a takeaway and were told it was an hours wait. It was really busy with eat in customers. It was not worth the wait. BBQ ribs were big but greasy, devoid of sauce and flavour and did not taste of BBQ at all. Satay chicken was poor quality chicken. The spring rolls and vegetable rice were OK and the sweet and sour chicken was also not very tasty and the chicken was again greasy. We had been recommended but it was well below par. Don’t know if the quality was affected by how busy they were.but it was not a great experience and not one I will be repeating
