Temple in Chelmsford

Went there after Chelmsford escape rooms and had a pretty good buffet. Freshly cooked steak was good as was the fresh crepe..the actual buffet was more mid to low quality, but great service from the staff, good selection of food too. Would I go back?....maybe not, but I'd recommend it to people who are big eaters and it is a nice atmosphere too.

Arguably the best buffet in Chelmsford, just adjacent to the bond street car park. Amazing spread, fantastic taste. Specially for my Asian friends, spice is good, not like the low spice food sold as indian/Chinese elsewhere. Unfortunately was so busy with the food, forgot to take photos.

We made the decision to go on a Monday afternoon. On weekends it is usually crowded. If it is the first time you go, when you pay they explain how the Buffet works. They are all very friendly and are attentive in removing the plates so that you have a clean and clear table. The food is always hot. I really liked the service and the variety of food. The dessert section is organized and everything has its name so you know what you're eating. If you want, you pay for a drink or you have the option of refilling the glass as many times as you want. I will be back!

Excellent value for money at a lunchtime. Food is of a pretty good quality, not high-end, but for the money it's very good. Took a party of 7 there for lunch, and with unlimited food and unlimited soft drinks, and the bill came in a few pence short of 80 quid.It does get quite busy (and therefore loud) so book ahead, and maybe one to avoid if you want a quiet romantic meal out.

We were fairly late but it wasn't a touch on the last time I came. If you aren't going to be offering full service like tepanyaki then adjust the price accordingly. 2 hours earlier you get a lot more for the money, more dishes and fresher esp on the cooked fresh side, so I feel hard done by.

Warm welcome. Pay before you eat, and are shown to a table. Drinks are payable separately at the bar. Food is okay, lots of choice, some cold and uncared for but the most rotated food (duck and sweet n sour chicken) is hot. Sushi chef likes to play on his phone, then place the pre-made dishes on the pass without gloves or washing of hands. Witnessed that 3 times. Return? Nah.The young staff are attentive at clearing but know nothing about dishes or layout.Thanks.

Service is good as is the value for money here. Nice decor inside. Parking is easy at Bond Street. Food was hot and readily replenished. Good variety. Even fussy kids should be able to find something here.

First time visit and I was blown away with the amount of dishes they had on offer. Very friendly service and fast and prompt to top up low dishes. I'd highly recommend songs and will be back!

Visited for lunch, very reasonably priced. Good selection to choose from however food became cold very quickly. What we had was nice although I am really thirsty now so food possibly MSG heavy. Will return one evening to try full range of dishes.

I would surely come back! We have tried to eat here for a while. However, we could only get in now as we booked a table. It's busy. We have been greeted with a smile, seated very instantly and all empty plates have been picked up from the table asap. It was 4 of us and we all liked it. Surely some of the dishes better, other not as much. But a lot to choose from. Even for vegetarian. I loved cauliflower curry. Very nice surrounding too.
