Buffet 101 - Niles

I've read a lot of bad reviews and all of us in the group bought a Metro Deal voucher so I was expecting the worst but I must say I loved dining here (more so than The Alley and Vikings). Things I loved: It's not that crowded. Upon opening, there were probably less than 25 people (including the walk ins). People were constantly streaming in though. Not really related, but just want to share that the customers that day were shy. It took around 10 minutes before other people started getting food (as for me, I broke the ice and managed to fill two plates before people finally started checking out the buffet LMAOOO). It felt weird to me because on other places that I've been at, people rush to get food after they are escorted to their tables. The food. Their carving station isn't very exciting, but they have other meat options that I liked. I would stay away from the porks in all sorts of sweet sauces, I mean they're okay but the saltier/savory ones are better. Their fried fish in batter (there were two kinds) was also great too. They also have white chicken! And ginger sauce!!! Other foods that I liked were: french fries, seafood chowder, pizza, salmon, tuna salad As for the drinks: HOT MILO! I had it twice. They only have one beer here and it isn't strong (it's almost like drinking Cali). I'm sure I drank at least 500ml of Pepsi Max. The milk shakes were nice (although I wish they have vanilla milkshake), but it takes too long to freeze. When we came in, they were still freezing and I think it was around 12:30 when the drinks were ready. I've managed to try melon and taro, but everyone seems to want the avocado because it ran out fast. They refilled it but I know we would be out of Buffet101 by the time it's ready. I also had flower tea for kicks (I don't know what I'm doing and I just put in a bunch of flowers, but my slow self didn't notice there were instructions and descriptions above it) Service is great. Since we were paying a discounted price, I was expecting for us to get treated like second class customers lol, but they were helpful and courteous all through out Things that they could improve on: Tissues. I hope they'll have tissues on the table. Desserts. Their crepe and banoffee pie was okay, but the other ones I tried were forgettable Choices. I liked all the foods I've tried (I have simple tastesbuds, I usually just want meat and lots of drinks) but I could see why people say that the choices are limited If only all their branches aren't so out of they way I would have love to come here more often.

Perfect for family or friends bonding. We went here for our team out/dinner. I had 3.. 4.. 5.. i don't know. Multiple plates for sure. I enjoyed the food and the ambiance. But more on the food, really. There are a lot to choose from.

They have an awesome menu so you have a lot to choosw from. They have drinks from softdrinks to fruitshakes. I also love that they have CRABS omg. They are my all time favorite

It’s like vikings but smaller, the ambience was really nice and the food is okay, its a great place where you can hang out with your friends or family. The CR was really clean and spacious, props to them for that, unlike in vikings — the cr’s are too tiny and cramped.

Yesterday, we celebrated our Valentine’s here. actually, its our first time to eat here both. as we expected, yes food is very delicious. we get to taste all of their food. very presentable. well, its highly recommended. except is that their accommodations is not really good at all. i called them and messaged them. at first, reservation was in wrong sched. next is, i didnt even receive any confirmation text day before my reservation, my concern is maybe they didnt note it. i called them, and they said they will call me or text me after a while. but still got no text. so i decided to call them again, and rant about it. then at least i confirmed it.
