Everything was delicious, smoked duck in plum sauce was mind blowing. We really enjoyed it ❤️

We ate at this restaurant and it was not worth the £81 for 2 adults and a child. The menu is limited. The quality of the food is average nothing to sing home about. The best part of the restaurant is the friendly staff. I will not be returning. You have to order then the food is bought to you. Its not the traditional buffet where the food is laid out and you choose.

Food was OK, but great customer service. The soup ordered was far below par, however, when the waitress was informed about this she took my feedback on board and promised to inform the chef.

Came here for take-out while we stayed in Sunbury for the weekend.The prices were reasonable and the waitress was friendly. The food came out at a reasonable time, we ordered fried rice and two meats dishes.The size was smaller than I expected but it was still enough for two people maybe we should have ordered more rice though. As for the flavors, it is decent. For me, it tasted like food-court quality. I still enjoyed my meal but not sure if I would come back.

Really excellent. They call it a buffet. It is much better than that. Buffets are horrible. If they haven't run out of what you wanted, they are full of food that is either dried out, cold or touched by God knows who. What they call a buffet here is actually a full menu, all cooked fresh to order but you just pay a fixed price for the food, however much you want. That means you can have nice selection of lovely dishes and not worry about mounting costs. All that, and the quality of the food served was really very good.

I have been eating in and getting take away’s from here for years! Amazing lovely staff always make you feel welcome (Bill & Emma)The food is always hot and fresh, Never come away thirsty like most “eat as much as you like” restaurants! Looking forward to seeing you again soon 👍🏻

Having used this place for take-away in the past, we found ourselves popping in on a Saturday evening hoping for a table as we were in a bit of a rush to eat before heading out to a party.We were advised there were no tables available, so we ordered a few bits to take-away as didn’t have time to mess about.As we were waiting I noticed one of the empty tables had a note on it for a booking 50 mins time - so I had a word with who I presume is the manager and promised we would vacate before the booking, meaning we could eat at a table!The food was served very quickly, only a few dishes like I say but it’s one of our more common choices. Satay chicken, beef & mushrooms and a chicken fried rice. £33-ish with a £3 service charge.We enjoyed the food, perfectly hot and also tasty. My partner did say her satay chicken could of done with a bit more sauce as it comes with more when we order it as a takeout. (So she could put it on the rice more..) but I think next time when we’re not in so much of a rush we would probably just request a bit more sauce - I’m sure that wouldn’t take the kitchen a minute to knock up.Just before writing this review I took a look through others and notice some giving 1-star reviews on the account they were ill from the food here, which I personally find a little odd as knowing a bit about the food industry from my family owning their own take-away in the past, if one person was ill then a hell of a lot more would of been too - therefore the restaurant would of known about it.I do a lot of Google reviews and always give a fair rating, and I do my best to explain experiences positive or negative. I won’t be influenced by other reviews or intimidated by owners/managers as I firmly believe this ruins the trust the public have in reviews.Admittedly this is our first dining-in experience here, however we’ve used Yum Yum probably 3-4 times in the last 18 months for takeaway and neither of us have ever been sick after, or had a complaint about the food.

We chose this restaurant as was close to where we were staying and the menu looked lovely. They were busy which is normally a good sign, having not booked they set us up a table by the door which we were grateful for. Shortly after we were seated another couple arrived who had also not booked and were obviously regulars, they were offered a table we were told was reserved and during the meal we noticed a few tables not being used, one blatantly covered with menus in much better location and would have prevented my partner getting a cold back from the draft by the door. We opted for the buffet menu and decided to order a couple of starters to get an idea of portion sizes (as did not want to over order & waste food) when ordering we were asked to order several starters at once as was easier for the kitchen (that had been our plan) an hour and half later we were still waiting on our main which eventually arrived. It was obvious the staff were looking after the regulars above us as the couple that came in after us had eaten there starters and mains and left by the time our mains arrived. The quality of the food was not the best, the plates were cold making the food cold. I ordered Pad Thai (one of my favourite dishes) what arrived was nothing like a Pad Thai I've ever had before. The chow main noodles had not been cooked properly either. When we got the bill having said on the menu service charge not included (therefore you expect to add at your discretion) the bill had a service charge added. At this point we decided to ask to speak to the manager and politely mentioned the service charge and were told he'd take it off without actually listening to what we were saying, we then started to express our experience thinking the manager should be aware but have never known a manager be so rude, he kept cutting us off and said you've been here 2 hours and are complaining to which we said yes as we shouldn't have been there for 2 hours but waited so long for our food. He assumed that by being there that long we had enjoyed the food to which we said no we hadn't and were asked if we planned to go back we said no his response was good I'm sick of people like you and couldn't get us out quick enough. I do not recommend eating here.

We went here on a Thursday eve and had their all you can eat offer. I was a bit skeptical as I was used to a conventional buffet where you serve yourself with food. However the food turned out to be really delicious, everything we ordered was top notch, I wouldn’t say there was one thing that I didn’t like. What stood out especially for me were the entrees. Very nice selection of choices, especially for pescatarians, as there are many types of prawns and mussels to choose from. Don’t forget to book a table in advance. Will definitely go back!
