Visited at a lunchtime for the astonishingly great value meal. This is a very large place with an enormous buffet constantly topped up and refreshed with a very wide range of foods to choose from. Runs with minimal but excellent service - warm and friendly. A slight oddity is that you take your own used plates to the collection station at the end of each course. This saves table waiting staff so that the staff can concentrate on more important jobs and is no real inconvenience, as you're on your feet anyway to go for your next course, though it appears from other reviews that some people don't like it. Even if you don't like it, it doesn't reduce the quality of the food and the place, or the experience as a whole by more than one star. This arrangement enables the restaurant to give good service, to keep on top of the dishes as they get used up, and to fresh cook the fresh meat and veg for you quickly on the spot while you wait at BRILLLIANT prices.Highly recommended, but don't expect waitress service - it's a buffet restaurant, not a silver service one.

I have been wanting to try this place having heard some positive comments from friends, and we went there for lunch today...Well I am glad my curiosity has been satisfied, our taste buds however were not...This is a buffet restaurant with the feel of a cafeteria...plenty of small tables quite close together. I didnt expect haut cuisine and the food is well displayed and looks very appetising. As other reviewers have stated there is a wide choice from entrees, mains and desserts, both cold and hot (well warm). The thing that let it down in my opinion is that much of the food was tasteless. The prawns and bulots from the salad bar for example didn't taste of anything and there wasn't a local mussel in sight...(Green bay ones come from New Zealand I believe). Some of the hot options fared better and the noodles were nice, but the desserts again were tasteless. So all in all a bit disappointing. If you want quantity fine, but I wont be returning soon. (Prices now 12euros and 18euros)

We have been here twice now, it's very good value at 11.50⬠per head for the lunch deal ( you pay a bit more in the evening)There is a good selection of sushi, dim sum, starters and mains along with all the usual accompaniments, including salad and fruit. There is a noodle bar so you choose your meats and veggies and noodles then the chef cooks them for you. There is also a good selection of deserts. The service is good and it is nice and quick. You definitely get your monies worth!

We came hungry and freezing. The Miso soup was basic and hot. Couldn't take any salad- they had all been sprinkled with vinegar. All. The Sashimi were generous in size and thin in taste. The tuna had almost no taste and only the Salmon saved the dish. Our lady of srrvice showed lack of any knowledge as to Japanese food in general and the various plates in restaurant.

My wife and I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for awhile. Since we live one hour away we decided to combine it with shopping. The restaurant looks like it seats about 24 or so. The decor is nice. We were greeted and selected our table. The service was very pleasant and never minded questions being asked. We chose a menu and selected things we typically enjoy. We were pleased with everything.
