    Great price for all you can eat ! The pizza was delicious, they only had penne pasta to mix would have loved spaghetti to mix aswell with the sauces. And a Parmesan somewhere to sprinkle ontop would have been nice! The desert wasn’t that great the icecream was like a milkshake when it came out instead of formed. Overall not bad it’s new so they can improve with reviews !

    Service was great and the staff gave the kids glow sticks to keep them entertained. The pizza, chips, garlic bread and lasagne was very tasty and good quality. Lots of free parking close by. Cocktails were 10/10.

    There isn’t a huge range, but everything they did have was delicious. The chicken fingers and chips for the kids is a great addition. Overall good value

    Quality of food was superb. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Cocktails for under $20 is a rarity anywhere but here they were $15. We had a table of 12 and not one person left dissatisfied. 100% will be back!

    My partner and I were very disappointed, the reviews are the reason that bought us here to try. I don't have the biggest expectations for an all you can eat buffet. But to charge $80 including the dessert and soft drinks for 2 and then serve thier customers cheap, generic, tastless poor quality food is just crazy. Salad bar was very disappointing, I think even a rabbit would be disappointed. The service was nice, but please stop hovering over customers like a vulture while they're still eating and having a conversation. Dessert was ok but still underwhelming and the softdrink was warm and flat. The fixed that problem with a small bucked of ice on the side I found myself confused about the 4+ overall star reviews thinking it was just me, but a small conversation with neighbouring tables also complained it was very disappointing and feel ripped off. Quite frankly, we felt the same.

    Food was pretty Average to be honest, we were meant to sit outside but the music was way to loud, so chose to sit inside, it was just as noisy, the value was expensive, the soft drinks were watered down and flat and the soft serve was to runny. Maybe it will get better if people really tell you what it's like. People raved about it, I won't be going back in a hurry, I will just head to Franks instead

    It was our first time there and we actually loved it, Booked a table for us, the atmosphere was great the staff was great the food was awesome, it is what we needed after a long week of work and to catch up. The only disappointing thing was the drinks and dessert. The cups could of been a little bigger for what we paid for and the dessert bar should of had a more variety than just Mousse, Jelly and Tiramisu, other than we will be going back. So if you just want to relax and have a relaxing all you can eat Pizza & pasta this is the place to go.
