Not badAtomosphere is a bit dull. Prices are reasonable, however, i'd much rather go somewhere else for a more upbeat and friendly atomosphere. Could be okay if your just looking for a few drinks before heading into central London though.

Cheap but delightfulFor a buffet costing Â£5 expectations were low. However, this place offered a very wide selection of dishes. Choices for everyone. The quality of the food is decent enough! Definitely worth a mere five pound! If you enjoy chinese food and are looking to eat out very cheap, visit this place! It also looks out onto the docks/harbour and can be lovely in the evening. Well worth a visit if your on a tight budget but still fancy going out for a meal.

Cheap both in price and qualityThis restaurant is both cheap in price and when it comes to quality. The food is of a very average standard. You can easily tell the main dish currys have been watered down making many of the curries tastless or ridiculously mild. They have a good range of starters and all the starters which i had were tasty. However another big disappointment was their sweets selection. The had a few peices of fruit, a cake which looked cheap and clearly something from the shelfs of iceland costing less than Â£1, and tiny swiss rolls. Apart from this, the only other option was ice-cream. The selection was both poor quality and very limited.
Despite the starters selection and quality being good, the main courses and sweets brought everything down overall. It's not surprising that the quality and standard is low comsidering the prices are cheap for the meals, however, when restaurants water down currys, that really is poor quality and bad practice!

Good prices. Good food.If your on a tight budget, or just feel like a cheap lunch or dinner but don't want to compromise on the quality of food then this place is definitely worth visiting!
Prices for a wide selection buffet is less than a fiver at lunch time. Their selection is varied. I can be quite a fussy eater and in general, am not the most enthusiastic about chinese food, however, i still found plenty to fill my plate with despite this! Staff are on the whole friendly, although standards begin to fall when the restaurant becomes busy. This is clearly seen when your waiting for your drinks at the table for around 10 minutes. However, this is the only minor negitive point. For the price and range of dishes available at the buffet, this place is well worth Â£5 !

It all depends on the day of visitInside is nice looking and it has quite a warm atomosphere. However, the quality of the food can be some-what disappointing. They seem to have 'on' and 'off' days. A few times i have visited and the food has been lovely. Other times i have had to wait a long time for the food to be served and its been of poor quality!

Disappointing and poor quality foodI have ordered both take-away and had a meal inside this restaurant several times and if i'm being honest, i am not impressed. On first appearance, the restaurant gives the impression of tasty food and good customer service/care, but my experiences have told otherwise. When sitting-in the restaurant for a meal, the portion sizes were very small - amost child-like sizes. The prices are very high for the food and portions you are served. The worst experience was when ordering a home delivery take-away meal. My partner and I ordered our meals and after a staggering wait of, 1 hour and 45 minutes the meals were delivered cold! Everything was cold! On top of that the food wasn't up to standard. The nann bread was very sticky and doughy and the main meal currys were of a poor standard. The only thing we enjoyed were the poppadoms! For a second time we ordered from this restaurant thinking maybe the first time was just a busy period and we were unlucky... Unfortunatly not! For a second time our food took over 90 minutes to arrive, although instead of being cold, this time it was at least warm.. However, it was no-where near warm enough to even eat and we still had to microwave everything! Everytime my partner and i have visited or ordered from this restaurant we have been disappointed and the quality of the food has been extremely disappointing.
