To my knowledge, they have recently changed a new boss and I was expecting the new owner to provide same standard of food but unfortunately, I saw the kitchen and saw how disgusting the kitchen was. They accidentally got rid of some food ingredients and put them into the bin, but they then realised that it was a mistake and put it back into someone’s meal box. View all feedback.

Nestled on Elgin's High Street, this restaurant presents a stark contrast in dining experiences. Recent reviews reveal deep disappointment with the kitchen's hygiene and food quality, with patrons reporting overcooked dishes and unappetizing flavors. The buffet, though marketed as a fresh and extensive offering, has drawn criticism for its overly sweet sauces and soggy preparations. Yet, amidst these grievances, some diners have praised the attentive service and the vibrant atmosphere, highlighting the value and variety available. Whether you find a hidden gem or face culinary shortcomings, the restaurant clearly leaves a lasting impression, for better or worse.
