Tasty food and good value - eat as much as you want and a chance to try lots of different dishes. Bottomless fizzy juice is also great.

Loitering staff who watch you while you eat. Food gave us very bad stomachs. Won't be back again. Website made it look better than it actually is.

Enjoyed this family meal immensely. Grand-daughter chose here, purely for the marshmallows and chocolate fountain! Just one criticism. Crispy Chilli Beef (and chicken) would be better described as 'soggy chilli beef'

The food was lovely and the service extremely good. This was a birthday dinner for my partner and we all enjoyed the experience. Much better than standard buffet restaurants we loved the little dishes and the choice was amazing.

We have been a few times and although the place looked grubby previously it was nothing compared to this visit. We fooled a table for 12pm the time it opened for the day. The carousel doors were disgusting they hadnt been cleaned. I could understand at the end of the day but first thing. Absolutely disgusting we really should have got up and left. This place needs a good clean. Maybe the health inspector needs to have a visit as if it's like that on the outside what's the kitchens like. We will not be back.

Excellent food couldn't fault! But customer service wasn't great. Booked a table for 2pm then told at 3pm service was finished and was handed the bill. Wasn't anywhere near finishing food. Would have booked the table earlier of I was told that service was finished at 3pm

Really enjoyable location and food with helpful staff and easy parking, especially with events taking place in neighbouring establishments. My daughter always enjoys using the conveyor belts and picking what she wants to eat, especially the sweet potato roasties and most of the sea food dishes.

Good food, plenty of choice but a bit noisy otherwise would recommend as being something different. Try a little portion of food you would not usually pick.

The supply of food wasn't quite as plentiful as usual, with a few gaps on the conveyor belt. The menu options also felt a bit too repetitive. Were allowed to sit for as long as we liked however, unlike my last visit on a sat night when we felt pressured to leave almost as soon as we'd stopped eating.

Arrived at 6:30 for our reservation. There hadn't been a table left for us and the place was full. We were asked to take a seat while they sorted something. After 5mins we were lead to the best table in the house table 1 right at the start of the moving belt. We had the first pick of the fresh food and it was all lovely and hot with lots of choice. We will definitely be back.

Very nice food and an excellent concept off not having to leave your table at a buffet. Staff a bit too pushy in trying to clear away plates and also a bit unsettling when they make it clear they need you to leave almost as soon as you stop eating to free up the table. Would recommend, but at a quieter time than a Sat night to make it more relaxing.

Beautiful place & plenty of tasty food that just keeps coming! Great idea - something a wee bit different, with all the dishes of food just passing by your eyes. Desserts looked lovely but were a bit bland, but the main dishes more than made up for it!

Restaurant very busy when we arrived, chaos would be a good description. No one seemed to care or be interested in seating people with reservations. When seated 15 mins late, food choice and quality was pretty good. Desserts were a bit underwhelming.

Fabulous night, lovely food and great value, plus the novelty factor wowed our guests. I'd recommend this to everyone. Even the slightly picky eaters in our party we're tempted to try new things thanks to the buffet option.

China Red is always good fun. It's a bit of a novelty grabbing dishes from the conveyor belt and trying lots of different things. Food tasty and hot. Good variety. Service okay but took ages to serve our drinks. The kind of place you would be in a crowd now and again.
