Amazing food friendly host lots of yummy yummy food definitely worth the money. Only downside was waiters constantly coming up to table asking if we're ok think in an hour we had someone come up 10 times plus but we also understand that if using the robot service they need to check up on customers but overall a really good experience and will definitely be visiting again with the family xx

Love the idea, nice and centrally located too.Found the app really quick and easy to use - and love being able to collect points to use elsewhere.The food was OK, but didn't match up to the experience itself. When you've got a great USP, and super friendly and helpful staff, for the food to be 'OK' is a bit of a let down.That said, the service really was lovely, and we loved Bella whizzing around. A bit of a mixed experience I think.

Brilliant and friendly service.Food is delivered by their new robots which are pretty cool and are interactive.Ive been a few times and the food is always really yum, most portions are good sizes and you can obviously order more.The app is easy to use and food comes within a good time even during peak times.I do think it could be slightly cheaper or a discount for students as money is tight :).People leaving bad reviews for this place are crazy.

I went there with my husband and kid on weekday afternoon.The staff there were very nice and helpful, food were tasty, yummy 😋. I love the fried rice and appetizers so much. The most amazing thing was the robot server, which was very "high tech" and efficient.I would definitely come again and next time looking forward to having a dinner buffet there.

Visited mid-week for the dinner buffet for the first time since the new format has been introduced.Overall the individual portions ordering worked pretty well. The app and cool robot delivery made the experience much more unique and fun! The app does have some bugs (e.g. on Android if the app is closed then the table is not stored and has to be re-scanned). Hopefully these slight issues are resolved.There were some slight disadvantages as to not having the traditional style buffet - for example: Not being able to have a small sample of an item to avoid waste, or not being able to choose amount of sauce or vegetables in a portion of a dish. However I think that the system is generally well implemented overall.The food itself was generally good. However it did feel a little bit pricey (£20.99 for a weekday evening).The staff (the human ones!) were very good at explaining the system and assisting throughout.Overall, I thought that the experience was unique and fun and I would recommend.

Our first time and certainly won’t be our last time!We came on a Saturday night and it was a nice atmosphere it was busy but the service was very quick, you order through the app what you want as much as you want which I prefer.The app was very simple to use and I enjoyed the table service especially the robot that was just an experience in itself to see how the robots works it is very clever and I think it works really well. I think the price is very reasonable for the food you get good quality and good quantity. The staff was very helpful and the manager was so lovely. Definitely recommend and can’t wait to come back next time I’ll bring the children because they’ll love the robot! I’m such a fussy eater and get the basics from a Chinese takeaway so now I’ve managed to try different Chinese food and realised what I’ve been missing out on!

We were invited here recently to test out the new dining experience with Bella bot. The service was great and so much choice on food! We will be back again soon!

Obviously changed due to covid which is understandable and explains the robots.....No buffet however is still all you can eat which would be fine if the menu wasn't very very basic. If you accidentally close down the app you have to go find the front of house girl ( who was lovely ) to scan the QR code for your table again. Unfortunately one of the staff, I won't mention who appears to have a bit of a hygiene issue and that kind of smell just doesn't make for an enjoyable dining experience. The wee server robots were fairly quick bringing the food out but given its the first time we've visited since before the pandemic it was over all quite disappointing and not worth the money. Sorry

I read some reviews and some didn't sound good but I went anyway with a group of friends, 9 in all,Due to the situation it was table service through an app, once you got your head around the app and how to time your food order everything went well.Food was good and staff were attentive.As soon as the table was vacated it was cleaned off.I would go back.
