What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Emperor Chinese Restaurant is praised for its extensive all-you-can-eat buffet and generous portions offering excellent value. While many appreciate the friendly and attentive staff, some diners have found the food to be overly salty or tasteless, and have experienced issues with rushed service or warm beverages. The ambiance is noted as cozy and kid-friendly, though accessibility can be an issue due to stairs.
"Awesome place to visit! Fortunate enough to just happen to walk in and be seated but it did fill quick soon after. Clean place. Inviting. Great foods.. you serve yourself the starters from the buffet... you get a clean plate each time you go back. You order your main of which you can order and order each main separately to limit/eliminate wasted food. And deserts were self served but all pleasantly set out.
The staff we smiling and seem happy to be there. It's like a well lubricated machine going on here.
Clean, well attended. Awesome staff when I visited.. very welcoming."

"Overall, didn't enjoy my meal here. You need to go in upstairs which has no disabled access, we were seated straight away in a very busy, cramped dining room. We were asked if we wanted soup and then told to help ourselves to starters. While getting our starters we were asked if we minded moving tables, which I didn't mind as we hadn't started eating yet. The selection of starters was OK, the ribs were nice. We ordered a coke each which came warm, we then noticed they were serving it from a bottle of pop which was left at room temperature. While eating we noticed a few people been asked to change tables even though they were eating. The main courses are also all you can eat, you order it to be cooked fresh and once you finish your plate you can order another. We only had one main course each which was pretty tasteless. The abundance of waiters are like vultures, swooping in on you to take your plate even if you have food left on it. The desserts we buffet style again, and were nice but im pretty sure it was just those big party boxes of iceland desserts. Won't be going back and wouldn't recommend."

"Great selection of food in the buffet, but most of it tasted salty rather than flavourful. Good selection of desserts. Staff were warm and welcoming."
