• "The WORST buffet I have ever eaten in my life, most of the food was overcooked, dry, bland and tasteless."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "A recent change is that you'll have to prepay for your meal, but that actually makes things easier in the long run."
• "I think our bill was around £33. 2 all you can eat. 1 medium coke and 1 large coke. Worth it."
• "All this for almost half the price for the family meal because children pay less."
• "For the price you pay is pretty good as you can have infinite food."
• "With money off Monday to Wednesday you can't go wrong."
• "Some of the nicest Indian Chinese and Thai food around and its all you can eat at a very reasonable price."
• "Mimosa delivers excellent value for money and a great selection of Indian and Chinese dishes."

Cons:

• "The buffet at lunch time during the week is £11.00 And they only serve 12 to 15 dishes."
• "Price for the meal was £15.95 very disappointed not great value for money."
• "Overpriced at £20 especially because of the lack of choice on food."
• "Absolutely ludicrous. We could have eaten at the harvester for half the amount and have had better, fresher food."
• "The prices are so high and they hardly have a range of options. It's £19 per adult."
• "The food prices were too expensive when they’re the same food when they were in the all you can eat buffet."
• "We won’t be returning and I suggest everyone else stay clear unless wasting £90 isn’t an issue for you."

Ambiance and Cleanliness

Pros:

• "Consistently replenished, clean toilets, cosy atmosphere."
• "The ambience is very nice."
• "The atmosphere was perfect, creating a welcoming and enjoyable ambiance."
• "Great atmosphere with others respecting neighbouring people eating."
• "The decor was very up market looking."
• "Restaurant was clean and well layed out."
• "It is very clean inside, clearing the plates very quickly by the restaurant employees."

Cons:

• "Think maybe the cleaning needs to be stepped up a notch as our shoes were literally sticking to the floor in most of the areas we walked in."
• "Finally the restaurant itself is more like a canteen than a relaxing enjoyable atmospheric place to socialise!"
• "Place seems to have been run down since our last visit."
• "The food seemed to have been sitting out all day. All the sauces were congealed and chewy or rock hard."
• "The sushi was very mushy and stuck to my teeth, salt and pepper squid was mushy too."
• "Buffet items are on the whole lukewarm, with little efforts to keep starters/appetisers such as sesame toast or crab claws warm."
• "Sadly mediocre to be honest, out of 6 or 7 beers on the menu, they had 1."
