It has a limited selection of food, but it makes sense, for 10,99 It's perfect. Even though I would say that the staff there was a amazing! Very nice and friendly, and the man answered all our questions, truly I would say that what lacks in the food selection, It fills completely with the amazing staff and the ambiance!

Overall great and delicious food except some foods like the beef and the rice dishes needs more seasoning and flavor. My favorite were the sweet and sour chicken, bang bang chicken, wings, fried prawns, fish and chowmein I just wish there were chopsticks

Went to gourmet buffet today with Wife and kids. Second time this month as we enjoyed the first time. There was a large tourist group who were in the restaurant and it was super busy. The staff accommodated us to some seats as soon as they could. Once we sat down there was alot.of empty food as the tourist group were finishing the food as there was such a large number. Howeverthe staff worked very fast and very hard to refill the food and were nice to refill the ice cream an give it to my kids as they were wa ting ur after their meal. Kamal one of the staff and their team were super attentive and cool. Thank you and will be back soon.
