Wir waren anlĂ€sslich einer Team-Feier mit mehreren Personen dort. Normalerweise vermeide ich solche Restaurants (ich erklĂ€re noch, warum), aber die Mehrheit des Teams hatte sich dafĂŒr entschieden. Das Ambiente hat mich positiv ĂŒberrascht, da das Restaurant von außen eher industriell wirkt. Der positive Eindruck wurde jedoch sehr schnell durch das Chaos an der Reservierung gedĂ€mpft. Unsere Reservierung konnte erst nicht gefunden werden, dann gab es negative Vibes, weil einige Personen abgesagt hatten (ja, nicht schon, aber so was passiert). Nachdem wir dann einen Platz fĂŒr 12 zugewiesen bekommen hatten, verschwand die Reservierung anscheinend im Nirvana, denn einer Kollegin, die keine 3 Minuten spĂ€ter ankam, konnte nicht mehr gesagt werden, wo denn ihre "Gruppe" Platz genommen hatte. ( So ging es noch anderen NachzĂŒglern von anderen Gruppen).

Da ich eine Magenverkleinerung hatte und dies auch mit dem entsprechenden Dokument nachweisen kann, frage ich gerade bei All-you-can-eat Etablissements, ob es möglich ist, z.B. den Senioren Rabatt zu erhalten. Dabei bin ich dann auch gerne bereit, mein Viertel Teller vorzeigen. Bislang bin ich dabei in anderen Restaurants stets auf Entgegenkommen, Diskretion und Freundlichkeit gestoßen.

Entsprechend wandte ich mich auch hier an den vermeintlichen Maitre d'... Der mir herablassend-höflich mitteilte, das der Inhaber hier keine Ausnahme machen wĂŒrde, da angeblich schon viele mit der selben Frage herangetreten seien und sich dann am Buffet vollgefressen hĂ€tten. Das könne man ja nicht kontrollieren (anscheinend ja doch... Woher hĂ€tte er es sonst wissen wollen?). Außerdem gĂ€be es an Freitagen um diese Uhrzeit ohnehin keine NachlĂ€sse fĂŒr Senioren oder Studenten. ( Witzigerweise war die erste Frage des Kellners spĂ€ter am Tisch, ob denn Studenten oder Senioren in der Gruppe wĂ€ren, da diese einen entsprechenden Rabatt bekĂ€men) Etwas verĂ€rgert, teilte ich dem Herrn mit, dass ich das so akzeptieren wĂŒrde, aber meine Konsequenzen fĂŒr die Zukunft daraus ziehen wĂŒrde.

Als ich an unseren Tisch zurĂŒckkehren wollte, meinte er plötzlich, man könne ja vielleicht einen Kompromiss finden und winkte mich auf die andere Seite des Reservierungsbereichs. Dort stand ein KĂŒhlschrank und ich hatte schon eine Vorahnung....

TatsĂ€chlich erklĂ€rte er mir, dass man am Too-good-to-go Angebot teilnehmen wĂŒrde (eigentlich lobenswert). Hierbei wĂŒrde es sich um Reste vom BĂŒfett handeln, die -wenn auch nicht mehr so ansehnlich - doch durchaus zum Verzehr geeignet wĂ€ren. NatĂŒrlich dĂŒrfte ich mir nichts vom BĂŒfett nehmen, könnte dann aber doch zumindest mit meinen Kollegen speisen... Ich habe keine Ahnung, was dieser Mensch sich dabei gedacht (wenn ĂŒberhaupt) hatte... Vermutlich dachte er, ich könnte mir das Essen dort nicht leisten und hatte nicht begriffen, dass man mit einem Fassungsvermögen von 150ml nicht wirklich viel Nahrung zu sich nehmen kann, und es mir lediglich darum ging, zumindest ein halbwegs faires Preis-LeistungsverhĂ€ltnis zu erhalten. Sein Angebot empfand ich als respekt- und ausgesprochen taktlos, wenn nicht gar beleidigend.

Leider wurde ich dann in Sachen Angebot und QualitĂ€t ebenfalls enttĂ€uscht. Z.B. war vom Rind-Zwiebel-Topf lediglich ein Berg Zwiebeln ĂŒbrig.. was nach kurzem Überblick ĂŒber die anderen Angebote die Vermutung nahelegte, dass hier eine möglichst große Preisspanne erzielt werden soll. Das Essen allgemein war zwar durchaus essbar, jedoch fanden sich u.a. auf den Tellern meiner Kollegen einiges an Knorpel u.Ă€. an.

Ich hatte dann letztendlich eine Mini FrĂŒhlingsrolle, ein StĂŒckchen Orangen-HĂ€hnchen, und ein Nigiri. Nach einer Stunde noch ein sehr kleines StĂŒckchen Baumkuchen (den ich wirklich empfehlen kann)... Dazu eine halbe Cola. Das ganze hat mich knapp 34 Euro gekostet.

Fazit: selbst wenn ich noch normal essen könnte, wĂ€re dies kein Restaurant, dass ich erneut aufsuchen wĂŒrde. Da ich nicht viel essen kann, möchte ich zumindest das bisschen genießen... Davon war das Angebot vor Ort leider...

Me and my friends recently visited XIAO Restaurant in Essen, and overall it was a really good experience especially if you love Asian food and enjoy trying different dishes.

The restaurant offers a huge buffet with unlimited options, including sushi, noodles, grilled items, seafood, dumplings, and many delicious Asian-style dishes. Everything looked fresh, well-prepared, and tasty. The variety is honestly impressive — you can easily spend two hours just exploring all the food sections!

However, please note that drinks are not included in the buffet price you have to pay separately for them. It’s not a big issue, but it’s good to know before going.

If you are a big eater or enjoy buffet-style dining, this is absolutely a great place to visit. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth and enjoy a nice food experience with friends or family.

But if you are someone who eats small portions or prefers Ă  la carte dining, it might not be ideal, as the price makes sense only if you really take advantage of the buffet.

The staff were friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the overall atmosphere was lively and modern.

Definitely a good place for food lovers, celebrations, or weekend dinners. I’d visit again when I’m really hungry and ready to enjoy a...

The design of the restaurant is beautiful It is a huge building with many places where one can sit. It looked clean and well organised. The play of light and shadows through the building is impressive. There are many people which can be a plus or minus depending on personalities.

I think that the name is misleading. The design and even food do not have so much to do with asian cultures. The options for sushi were very limited. Many of the dishes offered were rather western. The food was not fresh and did not make a great impression.

The service was friendly and helpful.

No drinks included in all you can eat. Otherwise small drinks and high prices.

Overall, something was missing. I would give...

That’s the best buffet I’ve visited so far. It’s easy reachable with car or bus, there’s a lot of parking spots, so not a problem. The restaurant looks really good from outside and inside. Nice decoration and atmosphere, clean. There’s a lot of food, good food, it’s fresh and because a lot of people they recharge food really often. There’s good sushi, well cooked. You need to pay for drinks though. The only thing about food is like to say, dear Xiao Essen there’s always no churros:( So I’d say it’s 9/10 because drinks are a little overpriced, but overall it’s a good restaurant that I recommend to go!
