Friendly staff, tasty food and a really sociable experience, as you can eat without having to leave the table as per the usual buffet set up. Just remember they don't accept card payments. Cash only.
Great food and great fun at unbelievable prices. We have been a few times and I think you get the best experience if you go as a group of 3 or more as you tend to share and try new things.
Fantastic experience we will be back excellent choice of food and friendly staff. We didn't have to wait to be seated and were served quickly.
Amazing food and great staff will definitely recommend going here spacaily if you want to try new foods and things good value for money :)
Restaurant was very busy food was good but felt a little rushed at end of meal as other people where needing the table Better to go here at lunch time when less busy
Every single item of food was of poor quality and cooked nothing like it should be. The chicken satay was especially bad. AVOID unless your happy throwing money away.
All you can eat was good, with the revolving meals, but service button broken, and they didn't tell us that. Good value. Surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night.
Food wasn't hot, service was poor. They didn't have a note of our reservation even though it was booked a couple of days earlier. A lot of the food had run out and wasn't replaced. The food I did eat was tasty although the temperature was not very hot at all
Could not use credit or debit card to pay which was a pain! Lovely food but a real lack of rice etc when we started eating.
Was busy so manager twice tried to encourage us to leave our table so that he could seat someone else. Will not be going back.
We had a table booked for 7.30 but we had to wait 20 minutes until our table was ready. Food was nice though, but they never had banana fritters which I would say they should have seen as it's mostly Chinese food
Absolutely loved this restaurant, nice atmosphere and tasty food and great service. Great value for money and great food for me and my best friends.
First visit and plan to go back soon. Staff very helpful and professional. Food lovely with a good selection. As it was my first visit wasn't sure how it worked but the staff explained well and it didn't take long to get in the way of it. Good layout as well didn't feel cramped and even although it was busy it didn't feel that way and there was always plenty of food circling. Thanks all most enjoyable.
despite the reservations we had to wait for a table 20 min :/ service good tasty food Thank you Very much i will come again
Waiters very helpful and friendly, plates on table cleared efficiently. The food on the conveyor seemed to be replenished quite quickly. They were good with the small children
Alcove style seating created a cosy feeling. Attractive room. Novelty food presentation was interesting and food was good. At first didn't realise the food circulating would be changing all the time so this gave us a nice surprise. Vegatables particularly tasty, especially the green beans. Only downside is that the continually circulating dishes distract the eye and can sometimes make it hard to focus on the conversation at the table until you have all found your choices, but would definitely go back.
Maybe a good concept but many flaws ie, you do not know how long food has been on belt and food often cold a bit mish-mash way of presenting food as you may want something that goes with noodles or rice and by the time they come round the dish you chose was not hot, and we had a seat right outside of the kitchen. Also very slow in replacing or re-newing dishes so a bit disappointing so probably won't be back at this restaurant.
Went along with Mini-me who was very excited by the double-deck conveyor belts! Despite making a booking and arriving a little early, we still had to wait for quite a while to be seated - perhaps a good sign as to how popular it is! The food, however, was really good and my small companion was soon tucking into sushi, sashimi, dumplings, crispy squid, etc! The only potential 'problem' was stopping him from taking food off the conveyor and then wasting it (hate that!). The staff were quick and attentive, but the best bot was when the bill arrived. For what we had, we'd easily have paid another £20 than the less than £30 that we did pay. Great place - we'll be back.
Great food and fun concept. Well worth the money. Will be back for sure. Very busy so def worth booking! Just wish the toilets were nearer!
It was an interesting experience but it was very distracting looking for food all the time. The selection wasn't very big when it came to food that wasn't breaded or chips, nuggets etc but it was a novelty experience and the price was good.
Great good, friendly staff, we will return for sure. Very family friendly as we struggle to find family friendly restaurants in and around Edinburgh to visit regularly
Five star always gave a great experience! Staff are always polite and accommodating highly recommend going here it's a happy environment and I was made welcome
Food hot, a good variety of dishes and delicious, double conveyor belt a unique and fun experience. Staff friendly and helpful. Worth a second visit
Great service and delicious food - ideal for lunchtime as we only get an hour, so can start eating as soon as we are seated
It was okay. Nothing special. The rotisserie thing they put the food on was kinda cool. I just need nine more words so I can post this review.
Been here a few times and you always get excellent food, in good size portions and a varied selection, and very attentive staff. Overall a very enjoyable experience.
Food is excellent, with great variety to cater for every taste. Diners can eat as much or as little as they wish and fill their plates multiple times. The waiting staff can be a bit quick to whisk away empty plates, which can be a bit intrusive but that is the only downside. This is a great place to come if you are very hungry!
We loved China red we had love time at China red and the food was very day and would come back and it is warm place
China red always give the best food and service on every occasion. They go above and beyond and even gave my little girl a gift as we were leaving.
Enjoyed the hotpot and appreciated the flexibility in taking food from the lower floor to feed my 4 year old. Wife was happy too so we would visit again.
China read is great! Not far from bus and rail links so it's really accessible , staff are attentive and the good is extremely good.
Great food, excellent value. Fab for kids wanting to try different things but with a few kid-friendly choices like pizza and chicken nuggets for the fussiest eaters!
We had a good choice of food and drink. Each plate is delicious. Kids loved the food going round in front of them. Music is a bit loud for dinner. You have to pay cash.
Sitted at end of conveyor and hence dishes were a bit sparse on the conveyor. Plus not a lot on the lower desert conveyor to chosde from.
It was a great dinning experience the portions were the right size and it was good how you could taste everything you fancied and eat more off if you liked it will be going again
Absolutely love this place. Very friendly staff. Great food. Always something going on. If there is anything you want or need the staff are always there to help.
Great food definitely coming back. Atmosphere was nice and the staff was helpful. Prices affordable was there for lunch next time will be coming for dinner since the menu is extended
Good service and quality, would recommend once again as China red never disappoints in either department, restaurant like quality in a buffet like setting, whats not to like?
It's a good place to experience Asian cuisines. I had a nice time there and I will be back later on the future to get accustomed.
This was an amazing place a must try. The food was so fresh and tasty and the 2 waiters we had were so great, Daniel and darral. Thanks guys. We were 3 there on Sunday night for mums birthday 🎂
Been here a few times now and is a firm favourite. Lots of fresh foods with lots of variety all on a double decker conveyor that goes right by your seat to to choose from as you please. Food amazing, great quality and staff very attentive. Love it and look forward to my next visit.
Nice and relaxed, as we arrived at opening time. Sometimes there can be pressure to clear the table quite quickly at peak times. Good selection of dishes considering only just open. Food nice and fresh as always and staff very friendly. Highly recommend.
Food was not hot enough & tasted as if it had been lying for a while, lots of gaps in the conveyor belt when the food was going round. The sushi was very dry
too much fish dishes for me and the puddings are a bit of a let down want more gateuxs and cheesecakes. They did very kindly make me some Banana fritters that were delicious.
Great fun, family friendly and decent food. They produced a cool birthday cake for our seven year old daughter at short notice which she loved.
So much choice. Everything we are was lovely and the service was great. It was also an absolute bargain!! Will definitely come back during our stay in Edinburgh
Limited food from the menu due to only a few customers. Same food items was on the belt for the entire time we were there. Poor quality, poor standards and no value for money.
Good food and good service. We go here quite regularly and are never disappointed. Staff are friendly and there is plenty to choose from. They even do dishes for small children also.
Very enjoyable dining experience, lovely food and attentive staff...couldn't ask for more! Will definitely return in the future. Only quibble is they only accept cash which is a little annoying but ok because there is a massive Asda a stone throw away.
nice food and great dining experience as the staff are very efficient.Absolutely love this place. Always something going on. I would go back again all my family enjoyed it .
