"$30 for members $33 for non members was in our opinion, excellent value. Like all buffets, there are things that hit and others that miss. The honey chicken was absolutely delicious. Far superior to the honey chicken we had at a top Chinese restaurant the night before. Also loved the fresh prawns, the garlic prawns, the crème brûlée and apple crumble. Items to avoid - the lasagna and the mussels with cheese. It's up to you to find what suits your taste and just focus on that. Enjoy"

"For $15 (special limited time only price) per adult for all you can eat, I cannot say anything negative. At a fast food place I won't name, I paid $13 for a small bit of chicken the other day, and so for $15 to have all you can eat including dessert, this place is a gem!!! Thank you! The creme brulee was amazing yummmmmm!!!!!"

"Located inside the forster bowling club is this amazing 15 dollar buffet lunch / dinner. Its 15 dollars for members or 18 dollars for non members, but either way it's still cheap and a great deal. When you pay your entry at the till , remember to ask for a cup which gives you unlimited softdrink refills. It might cost two dollars for a cup, I can't remember, but they don't offer it to you, so remember to ask as its so much cheaper than going to the bar. The huge buffet starts with Asian soups and continues with so, so ,so many different Chinese dishes. Then it is bacon and scrambled eggs, then pizza, baked vegetables, potato gratans, sushi, salads, prawns, deserts, bowls of whipped cream, fruits, ice cream and cakes. I'm sure there is so much more, actually it's extremely impressive especially for the price. You get a plate and go for it. The staff are constantly picking up the dirty and empty plates. Very good service. I really recommend it, especially for families with kids. So much cheaper than a maccers meal. There is a wheelchair accessible entry here with wheelchair accessible parking. Toilets are located in the buffet restaurant. You don't need to be a member, just sign in and enjoy"

"A great place for people to have discussion and family picnic. Warmly pleasant atmosphere with a well-designing environment such as food counters and tables. Great range of foods combined with different cultures from western to eastern. Staffs usually friendly with their professional, fast-paced services and high-level manners. Paid once for unlimited dishes with only $21. it's a great try."

"Of course we walked in at kid o clock feeding time 6pm to 7pm. We should have waited till 7pm but they found a table for 2 ok. Big range to choose from and delicious for the eyes and mouth. Tip, get there at 7pm as it is emptying out from kid o clock. Plenty of tables then. Enjoy the food and banter."
