“ Absolutely wonderful restaurant!!! We tried it for the first time as I went with my two daughters. What a superb choice of buffet foods, to the point it’s overwhelming in how to decide what to have on your plate first :-) Although the great thing is that you can eat as much as you like (making it even more value for money) total quality and such a lovely atmosphere too. My daughters & me loved the layout of the restaurant and the serene Chinese music playing softly in the background makes this one’s of the best eat as much buffets I’ve been to in years. ”
“ Max Orient never disappoints! The moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly cooked dishes hits you — everything smells and tastes incredible. The buffet spread is huge and packed with variety — from crispy spring rolls and juicy dumplings to sizzling noodles, aromatic fried rice, and perfectly spiced stir-fries. The sushi section is surprisingly fresh, and the desserts are the perfect sweet ending. The staff are friendly, attentive, and always keep the trays full and tables spotless. The atmosphere is vibrant but comfortable, making it perfect for both family meals and casual dinners with friends. For the price, the value is unbeatable — you get restaurant-quality Chinese food with an all-you-can-eat experience. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic flavours and a satisfying feast! Must-try: Salt & pepper chicken, beef in black bean sauce, and the honey chilli potatoes — absolute favourites! ”
“ The buffet selection was great and freshly made (while I was there several dishes were being set out). I was grateful for the salad bar but the drinks selection could be more varied as soft drinks (bottles or soda version) is a bit limited. Overall, the food tasted good and I ended up having two plates ”
