I love buffets and so its an all you can eat.
We mainly had most of the starters which were all so lovely. My favorite is the salt and chili pork ribs. Very tasty fall of the bone goodness.
I also love the crispy seaweed and I know I can add it onto anything and it would taste good. The texture and the umami flavor was amazing.
I had the duck wraps. The hoisin and the vegetables played a great role blending with the duck which made the wrap very succulent.
This restaurant has a very lovely view of portsmouth harbour and the owners and servers were very attentive and very prompt.
They take cards and cashm.
They have a loo.
If you can make reservations but we managed to be the second group to go in as we did a walk in as soon as it opened and not too bad for a weekday.

The service is amazing. Everyone with a smile on their face and wanting to please at every turn.
Some may say its expensive, just over 20 quid at the weekend for an adult "all you can eat", 100% worth it.
The first thing you notice is the decor. Its authentic, but VERY dated and looks alot like it hasn't changed much since the 80s. Also, there was a certain grubbiness to the place, that should have sent alarm bells ringing.
That said, you can't judge a book by its cover. The view is spectacular and the prices for the 'all you can eat' not unreasonable.
Unfortunately the view was the highlight of the experience.
A lukewarm beer accompanied the mix selection of starters we ordered and all of it was underwhelming and to be honest more befitting of a low standard takeaway delivery.
We persevered and if this had been a traditional style restaurant meal (not an all you can eat for £18) I'd have complained.
Dishes were either bland, overcooked, borderline undercooked or and I'll be frank, just poor quality.
We left within 45minutes and were then the suffers of bad stomach and diarrhoea after which lasted most of the night. We are no strangers to Indian, Thai, Chinese cuisine so it was Definately not a case of weak stomach.
I/we won't be returning!
