£8:95 for an all you can eat buffet seemed too good to pass up as I strolled past this place one early Wednesday evening, the place looked busy and the food looked good from the outside.
Managed to get a table for two, waitress was quick and attentive, ordered some drinks which were with us in a matter of minutes, buffet obviously was self service so off I went.
Plenty to choose from be it beef, chicken, pork all lamb dishes, noodles, fruit, spicy wan-tan soup (lovely stuff) etc.
All piping hot and tasty, I wasn’t too keen on the prawns though, not the meatiest I’ve encountered, and more than ever a pain to peel.
The dishes were regularly replenished with hot fresh ingredients and the old stock discarded. The decor of the place is pretty uninspiring but for hot tasty Chinese food, and plenty of it you can’t go wrong.
(on reflection some of the plates could've done with a wipe down)

Popped in for a bite to eat one weekday evening, standard Wetherspoons fayre, I opted for the 'Gourmet Burger' with a free pint thrown in for just under £8.Well that's a bargain in anyone's book but even more so in the heart of the Big Smoke where a pint is over £4 on it's own.
But the proof of the pudding (or Burger) is in the eating.
Well I've previously had this meal In Bournemouth, and very nice it was too, and this was just as good. Nicely cooked meaty slice of Cow, topped with Bacon, Stilton and Shropshire Blue & spring onion sauce, two dips (Relish, Mayo) plus some nice chunky chips and 'real' Onion Rings to accompany it.
The only negative was the bun was a bit limp and pretty much fell apart when picked up, it could have done with toasting, but other than that a tasty meal at a bargain price.

Stumbled upon this place on a flying visit to the big smoke one busy Friday night. Situated between Regent's Street and Carnaby Street the place looked busy and inviting so we thought we'd give it a go.
Right, the negatives first.
The service was slow, sit down...wait....eventually get a waiters attention, order food and drinks......wait.....drinks eventually turn up....wait....you can see your order by the grill.....wait...one of the orders arrives (you have to ask for cutlery) the waiter then takes someone else's order before getting the rest if your meal!!!!! (words were exchanged! )
Yes they were busy but this is the worst service I have received for years, very, very poor.
Now the food. I went for my old favourite Blue Cheese and Bacon Burger. It looked good, nice ciabatta roll, lettuce, tomato and red onion salad inside, it tasted sensational, incredibly tasty meat, subtle blue cheese sauce, lovely crispy bacon, I had a side of chips which I pretty much ignored, so good was the burger.
Yes the service was pants, but I'd go back tomorrow so good was the food.
(Probably the BEST burger I can remember tasting for a long, long time)
My partner had the Tex Mex Burger (jalapenos, guacamole, bacon) and she was also blown away by the quality!
Stunning food.
