We have been regulars here since before it was even The Taste, we’ve never ever had a problem and always enjoy our visits during which we always spend an excessive amount because the cocktails are beautiful. We regularly recommend to friends and family and have organised multiple festive work meals here.Well no more. After the way your manager spoke to me this evening, I will strongly be recommending that no one visits this establishment as the standards have dropped so drastically.Tonight, I made a complaint because I did not believe that it was acceptable for the staff member on the door to be actively turning away patrons when the restaurant was half full, simply because they could not keep up with cleaning the tables. They had offered us a table that we could not fit our pram next too without blocking other diners, directly in the path of the kitchen and within full earshot of the bar which is too loud for our daughter and actively upsets her, when I asked if we could have one of the other multiple available tables. We were told no, we couldn’t because they needed cleaning and to find elsewhere to eat.That is poor service and turning away customers is obviously negative to a business especially when you really weren’t busy in the first place. We would have happily waited for a table but instead of telling customers to wait a moment whilst a table was prepared, the staff member told us to either use the table that was unsuitable for our needs or leave.I approached the man behind the bar and calmly voiced my complaint, explaining that it was very poor customer service to be actively telling people to eat elsewhere instead of inside your establishment. I explained that I had been coming for years and had never experienced a staff member actively turning away a customer before.The staff member behind the bar then told me that because he didn’t recognise me it must be a lie that my family and I visit regularly because he’s worked there for 5 years and that I must be lying about the staff member turning us away.I explained to him that I had absolutely no reason to lie about the situation and if the situation hadn’t occurred then I would not be making a complaint to which he responded why are you lying then and told me that the other staff member had not said that. To which I responded with ‘you were not present so how would you know, I have absolutely no reason to lie about it’.At this point he became very rude and arrogant, rolling his eyes and sighing at me so I asked to speak to a manager.He told me that he was the manager so I then asked him why he was not listening or dealing with what I had said in a professional manner.At this point he became verbally aggressive. Repeatedly calling me a liar despite the fact that I was not lying. He then called the staff member in question over where that staff member admitted to the manager that he had asked us to leave exactly as I had described, he then expanded on that and gave an explanation that he had done it because some tables were dirty and he did not want to seat a table of three on a larger table.(Which we would have understood and we would have returned later had this been explained to us in this way but it was not)Despite the staff members admittance which was heard by multiple other customers. The manager still continued to call me a liar and verbally insult me until he just walked away because ‘I was distracting him and he was bored’.I have honestly never ever encountered such poor service before in my life and especially here. This situation could have been resolved with an apology and a quick word with your staff member about turning custom away without explanation but due to the actions of a manager that is incapable of dealing with a situation without acting like a petulant child you have lost multiple customers that have supported you for a long time.It’s a shame because you really were one of my favourite places to eat but I do not go into a restaurant to be insulted and spoken to so rudely. There is absolutely no need for it.

My visit was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. All of the dishes were fresh and well made, offering great value for the price. The prices were very affordable and allowed me to get my belly full without breaking the bank.The staff were also very attentive, constantly replenishing the buffet and making sure everything was well-stocked. This was a nice touch that made the dining experience more enjoyable.However, the selection was limited and some of the dishes could have used more flavor. Despite these shortcomings, I still think this restaurant is a good option for a budget-friendly meal. I would give it a 3 out of 5 stars for its good quality food, attentive service, and affordable prices.

Avoid. Ask for a table for 6 people was placed near the door, politely asked for another table as did not want to be sat near open door told could not accommodate. Several large tables were reserved which was not used for the 1 hour 20 mins we was in there. Service was shocking, dirty plates not collected from table, no one asked if “everything was okay”, no waitress or waiter came near table for us to ask for refillable drinks. Son approached bar and asked for drinks to be refilled and was asked to bring the glasses to the bar for them to be refilled! Later a waitress came to table and asked if I could tell my children to stop running in the restaurant when they were all sat down at the table. Health and safety reasons they are putting people in danger! My son ran back to the table from the toilet as he was scared of a big bang in the isolated corridor leading to the toilet! I challenged the waitress about the poor service and she couldn’t answer just want back to all the staff stood at the bar laughing and shaking her head! When we paid for the bill I asked if I was to make a complaint do they have a procedure. The lady behind the bar said you can tell me, which I explain about the poor service and rudeness of the staff, the lady I felt was not interested at all and just said sorry hence why I feel the need to leave a review. New all you can eat restaurant opening soon in the city so you would think they would welcome the custom and encourage people in to their restaurant and that drive people away!

I've eaten once in here, it was ok. Service was decent as far as all you can eats go. I've also ordered from here. I'm not sure if the food is from somewhere different in the building but it was subpar unfortunately letting the place down.

Excellent value for money. Can’t complain for £10pp. However, very tired management and staffs. Visible confusion can be seen among all of them when asked about the dishes, they seem to have little to no idea about whats going on and also some information by them are misleading.Immediate improvement in management is necessary. Otherwise lovely place to be with friends and family.

Good buffet food typically Chinesewithout all the frills and cost of fancy restaurantvery nice to eat good varietyExcellent staff very helpfulDefinitely recommend

Avoid this restaurant. It was awful. Gordon Ramsey would have a field day here. Some of the food was dryer than Gandis flip flop. The food was bland. Lots of items where not available. Picked 2 cakes both where frozen. The straw erry cheese cake was taken away and brought back after it had been blasted in the microwave. The chocolate fountain looked limp and was not working.

Today i with my family arrive tnus restaurant around 1:00pm. I am very hapoy thst good food , very fresh , good service. All you can eat only £9.9 , kids under 10 yrs old only 5.9 from 12:00pm to 8:30pm everyday. I will come again if i will come Lincoln.

Without doubt the worst all you can eat Chinese buffet I have ever had the misfortune to visit. The hot buffet items had been sitting on the buffet for far too long and we're practically inedible. The cakes were stale and just in case that wasn't bad enough they decorated them with cherries held in place with a barely visible cocktail sticks just waiting to stab the unsuspecting diner in the mouth. The only good thing were the 2 girls serving who were friendly and were doing a good job of keeping the place clean.

This place was great. The food was nice and you could keep going back for more and more. They had deserts as well, which you could go up to collect. They had many different foods from chilli shredded beef, prawn toast, and chicken Chow mein. The staff were very nice and there was this one person whose name I did not get, who was very nice and informative. Will go again.
