We visited Buffet Pekin II during our stay in Amadores, and honestly? It was a pleasant surprise. The staff were lovely, with warm welcomes all round, especially towards the kids, which is always a win when you're trying to keep little ones happy while juggling a plate full of spring rolls.
The food was decent, with a fair variety to choose from. One of the highlights was the woman behind the grill, enthusiastically cooking up fresh satay skewers and offering to whip up steak or fish on the spot. You don’t always get that kind of personal touch at an all you can eat place, so it definitely stood out.
I had a nosey on TripAdvisor before we went and noticed a few reviews saying people felt ill after eating here. I personally had no issues whatsoever, and my plate was cleared with pride. My family, on the other hand, didn’t love it quite as much. No one was ill, just a general sense that other local buffets hit the mark better in terms of taste and variety.
Atmosphere-wise, it was mostly relaxed, apart from one young male member of staff who spent the evening perched on a bar stool giving us a long, unblinking stare. He didn’t say anything, just silently observed like he was auditioning for a spy thriller. Bit awkward, but hey, maybe it was a slow night.
Overall, decent food, friendly staff, and some lovely fresh options off the grill. Worth a visit if you're nearby, but maybe don’t expect it to outshine the bigger...
Read moreWe had a delicious meal here. I didn't want to go initially but my sons wanted to try the buffet. I was SO surprised, the food was delicious a d the selection was big to choose from. My favourite were the chicken pieces in tempura they were so tender and the tempura light and crispy. My husband enjoyed the ribs in BBQ sauce and roasted chicken. My son's enjoyed the noodles and beef assortments. The ice cream and sauces added a tasty ending.
To address the price of drinks everyone complained about and put me off - what are they talking about?? By husband had a beer which was the same price as the restaurant next door and the kids drinks were also the same and as expected.
I mean I bought a slushie at the smoothie bar further down the Pavillion for 4€ and I thought that was a rip Off.
Our meal here for 4 was by far the tastiest and cheapest we had. I added our bill...
Read moreA nice Chinese for a decent price tag. I just wish there were more vegetarian options and felt the risk for cross contamination was high as no separate colour tongs etc. Personally i think the food should be labelled so we know what we are eating too. I would definitely return if in the area again though. Staff nice. Drinks were priced high...
