Lovely freshly cooked meats with a wide variety of sides. All you can eat, meat, sides and desserts make this excellent value. The BBQ pineapple coated in cinnamon is amazing. Probably as you would expect, the drinks are very highly priced to subsidise the food.

Not a fan of the service style or food. Whilst it's advertised as 'all you can eat' what it really feels like is that you feel like a dog waiting for someone to provide you with a scrapping of meat as they walk around different tables. The meat scraper becomes your master for the entirety of the extremely slow and inattentive service. The sides are mostly basic and tasteless (the fried fish was pleasant!) and the size of the portions were laughable and due to the awful service you give up asking for more. We ordered deserts that took way too long to arrive and had to leave.I am offended by this review section that zero stars isn't available.

TDLR; fun place for a family meal out with plenty of choices of meat and sides. Decor is very bright and at times a little tacky but the main reason for losing a star is how close the tables were and how packed the restaurant was.

What an outstanding place to eat. The service was excellent, the beer was good...and the food, WOW!! Absolutely amazing! Great choice and I guarantee you will leave with a smile on your face!

Staff were great but kept very busy. Once the meat skewers started coming they arrived in quick succession. We had a good selection of meats but not the full selection printed on the menu. There should have been unlimited tapas to accompany the meat. We received our first selection when we arrived but two further orders were taken and never arrived. Dessert was also unlimited but arrived in tiny, baby sized portions and weren't worth the wait. The brownie was so crunchy it should have been called a biscuit. I'd say overall it was quite expensive compared to other places doing a similar thing. Go once for the experience.

We had an amazing time! As a student I paid 20 pounds, and we had unlimited sides and desserts, and they came around with new meat all the time. Would definitely recommend the cinnamon pineapple, their sweet potato fries and the chicken wings! Staff was very nice

First time being back since the pandemic. Staff very quick on their feet and helpful/friendly. The BBQ meats do come out really fast- felt at times I needed to keep up with their speed! But nonetheless, delicious food and lovely atmosphere.

Exactly what we wanted - a warm welcome and explanation of how the meat would be served and the tapas and dessert options available. Fabulous cocktails and a good steady flow of various skewered meats circulated - very tasty and plentiful. We left full and happy

Really good value for money and tasty meat / sides. Can't fault the food or service from the staff.The only thing we didn't like was that after a while waiters were avoiding our area when we wanted more food (perhaps we were eating too much even though it was a buffet?) and we were waiting to order dessert bit after 30 minutes we gave up...Probably just because they were busy but that's the only fault we had

We attended this restuarant to celebrate my husband's birthday. We did visit this restaurant in Leeds a few years ago and enjoyed it tremendously. So we we're excited to have the same experience and we were not disappointed!!Amazing flavours and combinations which worked really well together. We were so full, the desserts were also really nice.If there were a few areas to change, it would be that some dishes where a bit salty, and personally I did not like the deep fried banana, but I did try it.I would reccommend trying the sweet Pineapple cinnamon, the deep fried fish, the lamb... etc.etc. Great restaurant! 10/10🍾🎉
