Za Za Bazaar in Newcastle upon Tyne

My family and i love it here for dinner

Unless you want mediocre food and service I wouldn't bother all the hype isn't worth it. Food is average at best, selection of food wasn't worth the visit for the same money you could find much better. Very disappointed. Massive space and was wedged in a corner walked past staff who didn't say a word got up stairs to find out needed to go back down to pay to then come back up with your ticket.

Food poisoning! Gave my daughter food poisoning after eating sushi. She was incredibly poorly for 4 days. This restaurant has gone downhill drastically!

Pretty good food and loads of options reccomend!

“Halal but theres a chance of cross contamination with pork on everything”

Went on a Sunday and lots of choices of foods from around the world. We had a great view and fixed price and time limit all good

Nice place with the possibility of eating everything: Mexican, Chinese, Italian and an excellent Indian! Particularly suitable for large groups.

Great experience food is 6 out of 10 but atmosphere makes up for it.

Always love going to ZaZa, the food is mediocre but the variety makes up for it. Loads of different cultures and selections. Very good value if you save yourself and eat lots.

Got food poisoning here. Looks like they don't have good hygiene here.

Really good multi cuisine restaurant at the heart of Bristol. Definitely worth visiting if you're curious of different tastes.

Food is amazing. Prices are great. Take her appetite to the whole other level. If you want small eater you’ll get some butt of a good price but if you eat lunch about the food you are in for a treat this place has Indian, European Tex-Mex forests also salads and desserts fees for your eyes and if you go here every day you will definitely get back.

I love Zaza Bazaar in Bristol, because every character had a special birthday from January to December.

It was very nice and the food was fresh and delicious. Great atmosphere!

The drink situation was a bit confusing. It would be more efficient to sell drink vouchers at the reception, allowing people to redeem them at the bar or with servers. Purchasing drinks at the table was disorganized and challenging to manage with a large group, which sometimes caused delays and confusion with orders. On the other hand, the food selection and quality were excellent, and the atmosphere was fantastic.

We visites for my daughter's 9th birthday and her friends had the best dining experience ever. Faizan, our server was great and very accommodating. We'll be back!

I am truly disappointed with my recent experience at Zaza Bazaar. Having traveled from Cardiff, I noticed a significant decline compared to our previous visits. Yesterday's trip will be our last. As soon as we left the restaurant, all three of us had to rush to find a restroom, and my elder son couldn’t hold it in. We had to locate a shop in the town center, which was challenging because we had to drop him off and return to the Zaza Bazaar car park due to parking restrictions. The hygiene standards were clearly not up to standards. Moreover, the chefs were quite rude. While I understand that many of them speak some English, they lacked the respect and courtesy that paying customers deserve. We expect standard politeness, but some chefs made us feel as though we should be grateful for their service, especially at the noodle station. When there were queues at the noodle station the chefs rushed to prepare food, leading to subpar dishes. My meal was not cooked properly— the prawns were raw, and the vegetables were so crunchy they were practically uncooked. We arrived earlier than our scheduled time and inquired about being seated sooner. They informed us they were fully booked and could not accommodate us. I explained that we were traveling from Cardiff and needed to leave soon, and they eventually offered us a shorter one-hour slot instead of the usual 1 hour and 45 minutes. While I appreciated this gesture, it was odd to see that the restaurant was at least one-quarter empty during the whole period we were there as we rushed through our meal. I have been visiting Zaza Bazaar for five years, and I have always recommended it to family, friends and always spoke highly to others. However, after this experience, I will no longer be promoting this establishment. I am very disappointed with the food quality, customer service, and the overall experience. I recall there were discussions about the restaurant closing down for development about a year ago and the owners were challenging this closure and need customers support and I supported those efforts then, but now I believe it’s time for a significant refurbishment or for new ownership to take charge and make the necessary changes for improvement.

Good live band and location ruined by the spectacled server who rudely refused to make a cocktail "because it'd take too long". Having spent a long time making cocktails for others. Clearly not everyone is welcome.

Very busy. Great food and the pasta is especially good. Lots of food like pizza though is always run out and you have to wait for another to be cooked as it’s so popular but I imagine this wouldn’t be a problem if it was less busy.

Avoid this place like the plague!!! Iv had better customer service in mcdonalds

Had lovely lunch, staff couldn't do enough for you and food was excellent. Will definitely be back.

I absolutely loved the atmosphere, service and food. There was so many variety of food to choose from and it's a place best value for money. It was my first time and I would absolutely go again and recommend to anyone looking for an all you can eat in Bristol and any other outlets they have 10/10.

An absolutely brilliant experience. Could not fault any of the food and the Verity unsurpassed

While the variety of food was impressive, I found the flavors to be somewhat lacking across most dishes. That said, the staff, particularly the pasta chef, was friendly and accommodating. I especially enjoyed the carbonara, but overall, the experience fell short on taste.

I went with my family on a Sunday evening. The restaurant was bustling, and the food was acceptable, but the hygiene was lost. I saw a small mouse running on the floor of the restaurant. Unacceptable as I expected a minimum standard of food hygiene. Not recommend it to anyone unless they improve their hygiene standards.

Went for a wee lunch, food was alright for a buffet (stuck to indian). Plates took a while to be cleared and we were all crammed in so not most relaxing. But for money and variety, not a bad option.

We went on the weekend and the za za bazaar was actually like a bazaar(market). Strongly recommend to book a table prior to visiting the place. Even though we had to wait in the queue to get navigated to the seat. The unlimited continental foods were amazing and I really like the sea foods which I had crossed and those were super tasty 😋. I need to visit the place again with a starving stomach.

Good food and lots of varieties.

Always enjoy the food, specially the Indian section. Fresh Dosa bring served this time!

Does what it says on the tin. Buffet food with lots to choose from. All the food is hot and fresh. It's worth a try.

A wide range of selections are available. A good value for money. Definitely recommend the fried noodles/Udon. Would like to visit again. There's also a student discount.

Lovely night out for granddaughters birthday. Love that everyone can eat what they fancy and as much as they want....I always eat too much!!!! 🤣🤣

Why are the bar staff so rude? Asked for a gin and felt like I asked for too much! Plus the waitress squeezed my like and out of in the drink with no gloves after touching the till 🤢

Really nice food delicious 🤤 and mouth watering

Food of all kinds but all of very low quality, but a lot of variety, so in the end you don't leave hungry, you always find something acceptable. Otherwise everything was correct, friendly staff, no product was missing and everything was clean, but the truth is it's not worth it.

The variety of different foods was outstanding lovely atmosphere Happy and friendly staff ready to help you with any problems

Gets very busy I suggest booking and there are to times early afternoon and late afternoon evening times lots of food choose from for everyone Asian American European and downstairs there is a bar if you just can't drinks plenty choose from. There and prices are good

Only went in for a drink,great atmosphere .wheelchair frienly

My chicken was pink inside and the chef ate of my plate told me it was paprika and it was jerk chicken vile

Rip off terrible food would've gone to my local chicken shop which is cheaper flys everywhere wouldn't recommend

Not my cup of tea sorry to say, it was too busy plenty of queues pushing and shoving and I didn't enjoy the food, except the ice cream

Excellent selection of food. Something for everyone. It was extremely busy when I visited. There was lots of food out. There was a massive queue for the ice cream machine. They probably should have had a staff member do it or get a second machine.

We turned up on a Monday without any prior booking. We were greeted by service with a smile and were given up to 2 hours on a table for 4 people. We didn't feel rushed at any point. It was extremely busy and the atmosphere was very nice. Every staff member who i approached or attended to our table was very happy to help and very friendly (considering how busy they were). Absolutely loved the variety of the food, everything was constantly being made and served fresh. And the desserts were delicious. Plenty to choose from, they even had a chocolate fountain!!! We couldn't find any free parking nearby due to the location of the establishment but were able to find a decent pay & display car park at walking distance. We paid £7 for parking 2 hours which is well worth it considering it is the city centre. Overall we were happy with the experience and would definitely recommend to others. Looking forward to visiting again with bigger appetites.

Says £10 per person on Google but it's not. It's £21 plus drinks - so £30 if you have soft drinks, more with alcohol.

Great service when we arrived to accommodate our table. Food was pretty decent. Poor selection of desserts though. Restaurant is so busy and booking times are all grouped to sit together

In the mood for a heavy hitting meal then you're at one of Bristol's busiest Buffets. Busy cause they put out quality food consistently and the staff are super friendly. My top picks from around the entire Buffet - ALLEPPEY PRAWN CURRY definitely my favorite curry there, MADRAS CHICKEN CURRY got a good kick of peppery spice, PRAWN DOSA amazing combination and made on a live counter, head to the carribean counter for some PERI PERI CHICKEN the most tender chicken in the buffet, and top it all off with the chocolate fudge cake with soft serve ice cream. Thank me later. I try cause I'm curious. Shabby loves this place. Definitely give it a shot cause SHABBY SAID SO!!!

Thye have really good and quality food I can highly recommend them if someone wants experience for many of different foods.

What a great multi-cultural "all you can eat" restaurant, plenty of fresh choices to cover most pallets, Lots of allergy advice on dishes, although because of it's close proximity cooking anyone with a serious allergy may need to be careful. However we had a great meal. Service was attentive and cleared quickly. Restaurant was clean. Definitely a firm favourite with us

good atmosphere good food and service the service staff super special 😘 faizar the best

Faizar good atmosphere good food and service the service staff super special 😘 faizar

Food is ok. However big question mark on halal level. Went there for dinner and as Muslims we thought it would all be halal, however they had pork ribs which my friend almost picked these up thinking they were halal lamb ribs. Cooking and cross contamination of halal food with non halal means the food is no longer halal. Also that also puts a question mark on a lot of the desserts which require gelatin...not sure I'd visit again which is a shame as was super ecstatic to know a halal buffet is in Bristol but they disappointed to find it may actually not be halal after all. Be careful guys

The best restaurant I have tried

Food was a little cold and not very good. The only good things was the ice cream and cakes.

Highly recommended- Indian cuisine

Large buffet, plenty of choice. Tables very close together though and long que to get a table. Then we were seated on someone else's table and having a time limit 30m was wasted waiting for a seat

Weird experience really not for me... Strange stressful atmosphere couldn't wait to leave. Not sure what all the hype is about. Security guards told us to take our hats off very weird.... Very average food not worth it...

Racist Worker , made me and my friend Pay before eating just because we are black . He did not ask any other non black customers to pay before . i am appalled and disgusted at this behaviour ruined my dinner and night to know we can not simply enjoy a meal like everyone else just because of the color of our skin . WilL NOT BE RETURNING PEOPLE OF COLOR AVOID AVOID AVOID

Disappointing that they only do two mocktails now, both of which contain coconut. Poor show for anyone who doesn't want alcohol. Won't be back.

Absolutely loved it. Went with a group of friends Food delicious Great variety of food Very clean Staff friendly

Great food and so much to choose from for just £12.99 each. All you can eat buffet. However make sure you book a table because it can great very busy and some people had to wait an hour for a table.

So many varieties of cuisine's and everything tasted so good. The place is not crowded but the customer service is good. Will recommend it

Amazing good and lovely staff minus hate way they stand over you why you are eating

Amazing food and great place to have a laugh with mates

Food is good for the price, the table servers are attentive, and I would recommend for anyone: friends or family restaurant. It does get quite busy and on occasions the food becomes limited due to the amount of customers

A Street market type environment in a warehouse type of building. Very comfortable, good range of food choices on an "All you can eat basis". Close to the harbour front and good value for money. Pre-booking would be preferable, although there are walk-ins

Food was great. Only given 1 1/2 but was rushed as it's so busy! Asked for a table of 10 but given for 8 so had to wait for the table to be made up which took into our time! While eating after was told to leave asap

Been a few times now and always lovely food with so much to choose from. Staff members were friendly and attentive even when under pressure. Only downside is it was really overcrowded.

The food is good some of the staff are excellent some are rude and arrogant..the place is always heaving way to many people and they cram u in like sardines.

Loved the food and wide variety available. Service is really good but can be excellent for sure. The place has the potential.

I never had such an awesome experience before! The place is just out of the world! With sooo many different options to choose from, it really gets tough what to eat. They have literally hundreds of food options available with different continental foods such as Indian, Chinese, Italian, Spanish, Mexican, African, Thai and even British! Words are not enough to praise that. Only problem is you will have to self service and walk down to all the isles with small and heavy plates all the time within 1.45hrs which is race against time!

It is not practical to reserve your table for only two hours, after which you have to leave the restaurant or pay for a new reservation

Great choice of food with good service.We tried pasta, indian food, chinese food, desserts and it was overall really good in terms of collection compared to the price i.e. 12.99 fr lunch. Indian food taste and overall cleaniness can be improved

if you’re in bristol and you don’t try this YOURE MISSING OUT!!!!! genuinely my faveee place and the variety and options are soo good! they have every cuisine you can think of and they love cooking as well! the workers are really friendly and the view is stun x I HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😜😜😜

The best all you can eat buffet we've tried. Lots of choice and everything was lovely. Just a note to those who haven't been to an all you can eat buffet, it's not 5 star fine dining so if that's what you want you need to give these places a miss rather than expecting the best of everything for 20 quid! 😆

Just spent my partners birthday here and best decision she could have made, everybody enjoyed the food they chose and the manager (Som) surprised her with birthday cake and shots. I'm already a regular here and would recommend for everybody that likes all authentic cuisines. Awesome.

Foods ok, massive range of things, efficient friendly staff.

Had to hunt down a server to pay. Food was nice and hot tho. Could do with replacing thier monument of sweets that has not been replaced since day one, the sight of discoloured smarties crumbling and yellowing collapsed marshmallows is off-putting

Go there on an empty stomach! You won't be disappointed. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was electric. The food stations wowed you all the way! There is something for everyone and of all ages although you will leave heavier than before you went in.

Best in bristol, unlimited food from around the world at a very reasonable price. Chicken and beef is halal too.

Really good value for money. The food is exceptional, and there is so much to choose from. You can go up as many times as you like. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Great all round place to get together

superb all-you-can-eat buffets at an unbeatable price! wide variety of dishes, all made to order or by island cooks. everything is fresh. China, India, Mexican, Italian, sushi, English… The decor is very pretty and the placement service is very efficient. Huge but reservation possible or even desirable.

For those who love Buffets, if you are in Bristol, do not miss this place. This is our 3rd visit to Za Za Bazaar. We have been impressed every time we are there. There is a good spread of Asian/TexMex/European/Indian corners with variety with each of them. Then there is dessert corner which is absolutely smash hit. Drinks (other than tap water) are charged separately. There is 90 mins cap on how long you can treat yourself - enough in my opinion to go for multiple rounds :) Its even more fun if you are going there as a group. Out compete each other over meals. Highly recommended

Fast becoming one of my favorite places in Bristol . Its good for family ,birthday celebrations and other occasions. Budget friendly and you eat so much before the time is up. I'll be taking my family there for my graduation dinner. Love it!

You pay to enter and possibly drink, and you eat whatever you want and as much as you want. Cuisine from all over the world, Chinese, European, etc. I recommend it

waited forever for a highchair but once sorted good food massive variety and everyone had a fab time

Surprisingly good quality food given its an all you can eat global buffet catering to the masses. Staff are super lovely.

You get what you pay for. Worth every penny. Multiple varieties of dishes. Vegetarian, Vegan, Indian, Chinese, Italian, desserts etc. Drinks extra cost.. Taste is JUST OK but not good.

So many great options, you can go back ten times for something completely different. Reasonable price, too!

A very large selection of food grouped by regions such as Asian, Mexican, Italian and Indian. Food quality is mostly average, with a lot of them too salty, but there are some better ones here and there so try to get a bit of everything. Food prepared on demand are usually decent such as stir fried noodles and BBQ ribs but the wait time can be long. Overall a good experience for the price of £18.99 (weekday dinner), would recommend visiting at less busier times.

Ambience is average. Service is okay. When it comes to food, some cuisines are really good, like the Italian stall has never disappointed. But then there are many that are just average. Pricing is good.

There are no words to describe how amazing this place is. The food is exceptional, the choices are awesome and watching the chefs cook is something. It's my go to restaurant for anything special and happily travel nearly 2 hours for it

The place is big however it was heaving with people and food choices were in my opinion poor quality.

Came into the restaurant completely oblivious of the experience. I was helped continuously by Anesu. Went out of his way to make sure me and my family's experience was amazing.

Wonderful range, girls adored pizza and desserts at least, worth a slight drive from Cornwall!

Overall : good place to try different food at once.. tastiness : mixed review ( few very good, few are average)

What an amazing place, great food and very welcoming staff.. everyone was really good, but one guy who stood out for us was Tommy (we were on table 213 if that helps) thank you for being so caring to me and my family, you sir are very good and very committed to keeping the customers happy, big pat on the back…

We had a great experience on 1st time going here the food was great as was the service from all area's staff were very helpful thankyou for a great evening

Full of variety of food. Some of the food is make by order , delicious

Very good value for money at this place. Can't fault it for the price you pay
