We first came here when it first opened around 2002/3, when we lived in the town. It was great had a massive selection and generally mostly refreshed often, so food was hot... However, we happened to be in the area so thought we would try it, with mixed reviews we decided to book, an hour in advance, but the booking was never confirmed. So we tipped up and was literally empty maybe 6 people tops in total at 6pm... The place had changed massively, not as many dishes as when we were last there, sadly. The review of the food now is based on this experience on this occasion. Starters had were, prawn toast, satay chicken, duck, crispy seaweed, spring rolls, charsui pork, capital ribs. Prawn toast was ok but only just warm, duck was very dry, seaweed may as well be called sugar with seaweed, ribs were dry and tough. Spring rolls were almost cold. Satay chicken was nice. Mains had were sweet sour chicken, crispy chilli chicken, lamb massala, chicken korma. Honestly the sweet and sour chicken was disgusting it was like chewing old boots, as was the chilli chicken except that was nearly cold. The massala and korma was very watery, had taste but not like the currys you would get from an Indian takeaway. People that have said its exceptional I'm gobsmacked, A, because no buffet is exceptional, and B based off our experience its so far off those reviews they must have got it mixed up with another restaurant. So sadly we were left bitterly disappointed, considering they charged £17 per person for food that I'd not feed my dogs. Really I can't help but feel it's fallen way below the past times we visited that we won't be going back or indeed recommending this as a...
Read moreA Shocking Experience at Ozone, Aldershot – Never Again I rarely leave reviews, but my visit to Ozone in Aldershot was so appalling it deserves to be shared. From the moment we arrived, the food looked tired and neglected—old, stuck together, and clearly left out far too long. Over the hour we were there, not a single dish was restocked. Trays sat empty, and what remained was barely edible. I love my food, but even I couldn’t stomach it. The first plate was disgusting, and the second attempt to salvage something was just as bad—completely inedible. That’s when I decided to leave. I politely informed staff of our experience, and while they did apologise, it wasn’t due to being busy. The issue runs deeper: from food sourcing to preparation and presentation, there’s a complete breakdown in quality control. To say I’ll never set foot in that place again is an understatement. I’m genuinely surprised no one has fallen ill. If you value your health and your taste buds, avoid this place...
Read moreZero stars for food and cleanliness. The food was cold, tasteless and looked old. All the lids were dirty so you had to get your hands dirty getting to the food. Could not eat ice cream because the water bowl where the scoop is placed looked disgusting and the handle was all in ice-cream. I ate noodles because everything else looked overcooked, was tasteless and I was scared I would get sick. I don't understand how they are getting good reviews, must be friends and family leaving them. We asked if the will top up dumplings as last one was taken just as we were dishing up and it was the only fresh looking dish. They said, yes, but then only took out some other food out to top up. We did not order drinks, because we don't drink while eating ,for health reasons, they made some comments in their language looking at us and it felt like they did not take them out on purpose. If you are hungry in area just get a kebab or a sandwich, don't risk your health...
