Arrived, got taken straight away to table, asked if we wanted drinks. Good! First Visit, didn't know lay out, were not shown. Chips hard in middle and only warm. Our unfinished drinks we left on table to go and get a sweet were cleared from our table! Had to tell them we were not finished! Toilets up lots of stairs.👎

I understand that we may have arrived at a quiet time but there was hardly any food out and it was not hot the food was nice the prices were good but as a Chinese buffet I was a little bit disappointed they were next to nothing with the deserts as well and a lot of the main dishes were not popular. I absolutely love spicy food and vegetables but the dishes that they were presenting were not appealing to me at all

Duck was very bony and some of the food could have been warmer. But generally a good meal though. Bill was a bit confusing at end as kids meals were supposed to be free but were on bill.

Went here for the first time with my husband for a date night. We went in got seated,then you just go & get your food from the selection of starters mains & desserts. There's just a nice selection. While we where choosing our food a member of staff left our glasses at our table for our drinks self serve bottomless juice for us. Really enjoyed our food. & will return. But there was only one thing that slightly spoiled our visit,there seemed to be a member of staff having a right go at another member of staff on & off in front if the customers,making it quite awkward.

Quieter than similar buffet experiences locally but maybe not the variety of dishes on offer. Great service over all - liked that the conveyor belt is no more.

Good selection of well cooked and nicely presented food. I realise that some people stuff themselves silly at a buffet, but the overall price was too much. Good to see that it was a popular place.

We went for Mother’s Day and it was fantastic so we tried it for Father’s Day, there wasn’t a lot of selection the two beers we bought were flat and there signature dessert dish had ran out of batter! We got 10% of the bill for the experience. Would definitely go back if the standard went back to before.

We enjoyed the meal at China Red. We were very disappointed to find the previously employed conveyer belt was gone. The kids loved the conveyer belt, and so did the adults. The food remains good, and varied, but with everyone getting up and filling their plates at the buffet at different times and speeds, the meal itself, and the conversation was very interrupted. So, an enjoyable meal, but not quite the experience it used to be.

Really nice environment! Recommended! :) We tried the dinner, that should be the one with a wider range of food. We also ordered a soft drink that you can refill when you want. I suggest to book if you want to go during the weekend.

First time I’m being there since it’s been changed from the original conveyer to the get up and help yourself buffet! I thing it is much better! I felt before the bowls on the conveyer were the ok big portions which filled you up and didn’t leave much room to sample all the other delicacies! The Eggboy was a great idea but needed some sprinkles of some sort to go with it! Overall a very nice meal and good service!
