Chinatown Restaurant — Restaurant in North Island

Cozy buffet style restaurant with good meal options for everyone. For meat and seafood lovers there's a really good choice: sashimi, seafood salad, 2 seaweed salads,sushi, fried prawns, deep fried squid😍and sooo many different Chinese steamed, stewed and fried dishes👌👌👌I am not sure if the menu depends on the day, because in the end of the week entering price is 30 nzd for adults but in Monday and Tuesday it is a bit cheaper. Also I am sure you will find something Sweet for yourself: fruits, Pavlova, doughnuts, cheesecake some kinds of pies and so on, including tea and coffee and ice-cream🍧Service is friendly and polite) What about disadvantages? 🤔 I haven't found any serious ones, there is a limit of the time, 2hours can be spent over there, but I guess it is enough for majority of people and of course, it is a place for a good dinner but if you prefer a higher cuisine and fancy place to visit-maybe it would be better to choose other place. So it is up to your purpose👌 I am absolutely satisfied with the meal options and price, despite the fact that the taste of dumplings and bbq pork could be better (meat was hardly chewable😕) Everything is fine here and it's obviously worth to visit the...

Always go here for whanau dinners and have received excellent service. Went here last night for a farewell dinner booked for 24 adults and 3 kids and was disappointed to say the least. Given that we had booked earlier in the day so they knew we were a big group coming. Spent most of the night waiting for food to be brought out namely prawns. Sushi. Desserts to be brought out. Prawns were brought out at like a dozen a time which given that the restaurant was full was not nearly enough. I personally waited like 3 times at which stage she said she would bring some over and when she did they were warm like they had been defrosted in a microwave or something. There was on tray if sushi when we arrived and then maybe 2 more brought out and then that was it. Most of the dishes were empty all night waiting for refills and given that they were so busy they still let people walk in and sit down knowing they didn't have enough food. Manager said to me that it was smorgasbord dining but it's only smorgasbord when there is food available lol. Desseet bar was a joke. Fruit salad was just a bowl of chopped apples in water. Very disappointed and won't be returning back...

I’m not usually the type to leave any reviews but my experience here tonight was horrible. Wontons tasted stale, as well as the spring rolls. No flavor in any of the dishes, prawns were old and had been sitting there for a while, found 3 hairs in the food and when complained about nothing happened apart from swapping the noodles out - didn’t come back out to apologize or say anything to us when we complained. $39.90 per person is a rip off compared to the food you get, and when my partner and i were paying - ($39.90 x 2 =$-79.80) and it came on the machine as $81.50 and then she said surcharge - (the surcharge normally comes after you tap your card) We have been here once before and it was awesome! but after tonight we won’t be going back.
