The Buffett is really amazing.

Excellent place if you are missing or want to experience Indian/bangladeshi/pakistani food. I would recommend the Sunday lunch buffet for pocket friendly experience with friends/family..

Nice and comfortable place. Some of the dishes are great. Veg food is not much choice. The quality of meat in the dishes isnt great, perhaps change the supplier. The quality of products used for dessert(jelly) isnt quality. Love the variety and layout. Friendly effecient staff, very proactive and on the ball. Well done to the staff.A few tweaks and this place can turn my experience into a 5star experience, but for now 3 stars. Happy to try again and give the restaurant a second chance in future.

The Buffet selection is great, lots of different dishes to choose from. It does get very busy so best to make a reservation. Food was top class and the service was excellent.

Amazing delicious food with immense delicacy. All good varieties are spot on. No doubt according to my opinion this is the best restaurant in the whole of Fordsburg Mayfair Crown Mines etc

Good range of dishes for Sunday buffet, very delicious however some of the dishes e.g. butter chicken is below par and the desert is always too sweet.

Breakfast very disappointing. No cheese or mushrooms for omelets and eggs. Styrofoam cups for your tea and coffee. Small bite sized sausages and small patties. Not worth the money. Limited food. No jam or cheese to put on scones. No proper fruit. My details are [email protected]

Bad service. Tried ordering over the phone but it seems like the staff do not know what is going on. Then tried on WhatsApp, epic fail as when we went to pick up the order, the manager or whatever, did not have any order in place for us. Refused to even help us.

I had a great time despite not arriving nearly hungry enough to tackle the endless array of meals! It takes some time to decide what to choose first as it all looks and smells amazing but if you have favourites itll be a bit easier.
