You finally have the buffet back to Nirmal and it is better than ever. There on a Friday evening for dinner all the dishes were full, hot and it tasted all amazing. They had a few supplements I had not seen yet, including torpedo shrimps, cream cheese competitions, a roast beef that was boiled to a beautiful medium in one side and well on the other, samosas, and they filled the spring rolls with curry vegetables. Also the egg foo young, general tao chicken, Mongolian beef sweet amd spur pork... only look at the pictures server was great, I drink plenty of water, he surprised not only leaving the jug there. The price is somewhat steeper, but it is expected today with inflated food costs. Actu...

Decent buffet, with plenty of options. But the price is a bit outrageous. Our bill (2 buffet's with just water) was $73. I doubt most people would eat near enough at a buffet to come near that value. The when I went to pay the tip options were only 10%,15%, 20%. There was no option to decline tip or add custom tip, since our empty plates were piled on our table and we didn't get offered a water refill for the duration of our meal I asked to decline the tip. In my opinion there quality and quantity I am able to eat is nowhere near the price. I won't ever return to this place.

A great location, great staff, great atmosphere, great service, but mediocre food. I will not say that their food is bad, but you need to be selective from which items you take from the buffet, as some dishes are definitely better than others, with the best of the crowd reaching beautiful status. This restaurant has been for decades and obviously acts on its brand recognition. I doubt it would survive if it was reopened as there are better quality alternatives.

Honest review: Our waiter was pleasant, but not very helpful or attentive. Unfortunately the food was extremely disappointing… everything tasted like garlic, don’t get me wrong I love garlic, but that was the only flavor… there were far too few options for 19.99 per person for lunch buffet. Not even sure if there was more than 10 dishes total. And they all tasted the same. Either flavorless or just garlic. Definitely not worth the money in my opinion. Book a table now

Food was lacking ingredients such as vegetables , shrimp and chicken in Cantonese chow mein , only thing in it was onions. Egg rolls, spring rolls and samosas all had only cabbage with a hint of curry in them and were very greasy. The server refilling water would touch the jug to every glass, just goes to show no training for proper hygiene protocol. Then to charge $28 per person for this was astonishing. Never again!

You could tell the food had been there for a while. The carrots were black around the edges. The sauces were dry. Nothing but bones in the spareribs. Very little vegetables in an extremely salty sauce. I had half a meatball and had to use my napkin .. it was awful. At $30 per person I was extremely disappointed. The only reason I’m giving 2 starts is because of the server who was good. Don’t waste your money

Impromptu Food with my wife and 6 months old. With 5 welcome staff were prompt, friendly and helpful with the high chair to put us quickly. The buffet was fresh, properly prepared and full of taste with a variety for whatever your taste. Too much to try, everything in a visit and look forward to our next.

Disappointing. Expensive low quality buffet offering little vegetables. Lead to believe from website you could order freshly made dishes from menu but when seated were told buffet was only option. Bland food barely warm and mostly deep fried. Server was lovely and apologetic. Book a table now

The food was hot and fresh and many choices at the buffet. I have gone to this facility for many years, but the prices have definitely increased since they opened again Post Covid. Overall, it is a nice restaurant with pretty good service and food I will go back.
