Butchers Buffet Strathfield — Restaurant in Sydney

Short summary: Good value for $59 (and you get a free drink). Clean place, great atmosphere, good quality meat and sides. I will return.

Food price and quality: $59 for all you can eat (for an adult, kids are cheaper). You get a free canned drink. Meats include beef oyster blade, scotch fillet, chicken, pork belly, and more. Some meats are marinated and others are just plain (good for if you are gluten free, you don’t have to worry about the marinade). All the sides were tasty and good quality - to name a few, there were glass noodles, seafood pancake, hot chips, onion rings, Korean rice cake, kimchi, the bean sprouts, lettuce, and more. There is a section for sauces too (such as soy, soy & vinegar, the red Korean sauce, and sesame sauce). Ice cream is available for dessert (service yourself, Bull a vanilla and chocolate rice cream).

Wait times: there was a 30 minute wait time for us to get in on a Saturday night (we arrived at 6:40pm. Dining is capped at 90 minutes (I didnt see them approach any table to tell them to leave though).

Atmosphere: busy busy busy. It can feel a bit cramped because it was a full restaurant with waiters and guests walking around with food. Be careful navigating with your food plates when walking back to your seat. The music was a mix of both English and Korean - it was great. The shop wasnt overly smokey either - they do a great job of controlling the smoke emitted from the BBQ’s and change the plates frequently (which helps the meat taste good). Friendly waitstaff.

Parking: Abysmal. It is situation on a busy street with street parking available, there is a small parking lot within 1 minute walking distance but only fits about 12-15 cars. The location is within walking distance from...

Butcher's Buffet is ridiculously priced, especially if you are a student. Even when they do offer student discounts it's only 3 dollars discounted. Recently, they have increased their prices to 35 dollars from 12-4pm. Then, they take a break for an hour and re-open at 5pm. However, the price increased to 40-45 dollars. They charge extra on Fridays - Sundays, and if you manage to eat from 5pm and onwards on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday...I'm sorry your wallet's going to be hurt. Here's the thing: They charge people at a ridiculous price for a One hour limit? I'm sorry, but that's NOT enough time for people to actually have an enjoyable time. Even worse, students aren't able to afford to eat at these places and so, they're really setting themselves up in losing customers since it is an extremely popular place amongst High-Schoolers. This put High- Schoolers in an extremely tight spot since school ends at 3:10 and by the time you arrive to butcher's buffet you either have to eat BEFORE it strikes 4:01 or you have to wait until 5pm and that's when it becomes EVEN more expensive. This is basically taking advantage of High-Schoolers if they WERE to go to Butcher's Buffet. I don't actually believe the reviews that's been displayed on Butchers Buffet since they make you give them a good review. The cashier literally ENSURES that you've left a "good and positive review/rating" and practically asks to see it to confirm before you leave. Overall, I can accept the increase in pricing since it is THEIR choice but it is unreasonable to pay for it when you only get an hour time limit. Did I mention that if you stay there longer for an extra 10 minutes, the waiter actually gives you the glares? Yep, great...
