This establishment closed between 3 and 4 to change over from lunch to dinner. We arrived just after 4 when it should be transitioned to the dinner menu. The person at the till charged us the lunch price (you pay before hand)The food was CLEARLY leftover from their lunch buffet. It was old, stale, dried up and not very appealing.Once we finished we LEFT THE BUILDING and the young man who charged us when we first got there popped out the side door and stopped us to ask us to come back in because he didn't charge us properly. So we all went back in and he proceeded to charge us an additional $6 per person for old, dried up, leftover lunch food. Very unprofessional, very disappointed, will NEVER go back. We were out of the building before he got up the nerve to ask us to fix our bills. They should have cut their losses. Don't waste your money here. The food is abhorrent.

As we left the restaurant the person at the front counter came to tell us to come back. That he didn't charge us enough. That we needed to come back in. It was not our fault that they didn't charge us correctly.

What a disappointment. Thought we would try it out after 10+ years... Roast beef like shoe leather. Fried chicken cold. Brown lettuce. Waste of $60 for 2..will never be back.

Loved the FOOD ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️The food had a lot of options to try if it's your first time. However, I would skip a few items next time. It was so much worth at 18.99 per person.I tried some dishes and especially loved their desserts, coffee and soft serve. Add some soft serve to your coffee, it tastes good.And surprisingly, they added Indian mixed veg curry which is next to the dessert plate in the photo, being an Indian, I can say it was super delicious and authentic. Also it had unlimited pop with so many options.Give this restaurant a try if you have a big appetite.

Food is mediocre. No diabetic desert options anymore and even when we asked for something for my mom they didn’t even offer anything. No protein options for vegetarians. For $26 a person you should have a more diverse selection.The best part about the restaurant is the friendly German man that collects the plates from the tables. He is always a delight and remembers us when we come in.Vegetarian options: No proteins just starchesDietary restrictions: No diabetic options for desserts

Came here for first time in almost 20 years. I remember it was better when I was a kid. But the quality of the food layed out was poor. You can see the dryness. I almost went Gordon Ramsay on the food. I had to go elsewhere after to satisfy my craving. Save your

The male busser pointed his finger to another table and glared at us when the host asked him to clean the table for us. That was rude. Then he came to clean our table for us and looked irritated. We did not know why he was mad because that was his job.Also, they blocked the other side of the buffet table so the customers had a hard time to get the food from the other side (they made the other side 'staff only'). We were surprised to see that. This never happened in the past.Now they took out the whole dessert section (they used to have a lot of desserts in the fridge on the counter at the back, including the desserts for diabetics) and they put the ice-cream at the far end on the counter just outside the kitchen door. That was odd. The food that were supposed to be hot were not hot (e.g. bbq spicy chicken) and they also tasted nasty (the fried chicken was tasteless; the roast beef was very chewy). Furthermore, they did not have the lemongrass chicken anymore. Moreover, they had the unwrapped tea bags on the counter for customers. Would you use the opened tea bags?The quality of everything went down; the food and service were disappointing. The buffet table was not fully stocked, and it was inconvenient to get the food. It is definitely not worth $20+ per person.

Food was disgraceful. Overcooked. Mystery food. Nothing was labelled. Parking nearby was unavailable. Never again!Parking: We walked blocks.
