"Joined the fellow yelpers here last night at the yelp world food tour in Belfast, although a little dubious about the all you can eat buffet I was won over having checked the website and seeing the option of live cooking station. Having taken a few laps to check out the offer, I had to avail of the buffet as their was no chef at the hot plate cooking station. It look a minute or two to find plates stored in hot cupboard...out if plain sight, but I suppose they choose to have warm plates rather than stack them on a counter top. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of food on offer. I chose some good chicken beef and seaweed options. Picked up a pancake and duck but found no accompaniments. The pancake dried up once hitting the air,maybe been in bamboo basket a little too long. There was no fish or seafood options at this time. Salad options were basic and not overly appetising or inline with food offer. Sushi in same fridge, looked good but wasn't the best. After 7pm i noticed a staff member at live cooking station and followed yelpers in ordering some freshly cooked food, i chose squid. Mine was fresh and quite well cooked although very garlicky, others reported theirs over cooked. The buffet seemed to being topped up well after 7pm, at the end i noticed salted chilli king prawns which were tasty and hoisin, cucumber scallion for the duck pancake. I only wished they had been topped up for our arrival at 630pm. Shared a crepe with my friend which was great as cooked in front of you,there were a few other dessert options of tinned fruits, jelly, ice cream and Sara Lee style banofee. Not my cuppa tea. Overall food for main meals was quite good, service for drinks was quite scatty with a new guy working our large party and more staff appearing after 7pm. Probably could have been a little more organised with food levels of most popular dishes for a large group of yelpers visiting. Recommend to those looking a big feed, perfect places for students and office workers for a cheap lunch."

I went here with a big company of mine (approximately 30 people) for the lunch buffet. The employees were really kind and helped us to our seats and made sure everything was okay. The food was good, a regular Chinese buffet nothing outstanding but it tasted good. They were also alert if someone had allergies and called the chef out. If you want to go to a simple Chinese restaurant I really recommend this place!

If you need food here it is. Can't say much more about here. It's not a cheese with delicate flavours etc. More about quantity than quality. I would go straight to the mains. Don't waste yourself on starters. Same with dessert. The best thing to have dessert wise is whippy ice cream,crepes and battered banana. You can get takes away boxes to fill and take away with you. Have to pay for it of course. There are a lot of Chinese people that eat in here. So it must be ok.

Always see a lot of Asian tourists visit this place so thought it had to be tried! Decor is modern and the restaurant looks clean. Price depends on what time you visit but it would be worth going to the grand buffet from 7pm as everything from the live cooking station is cooked in front of you. The food from the standard buffet selection is grand plenty of choice, some nicer than others. Definitely go for the crepes for dessert!! Cocktails are good and can get 3 for £10. Overall a good experience but a buffet is a buffet.

First impressions were good we were greeted by a friendly waiter who swiftly got us a round of beers. I started with the chicken and sweet corn soup which I thoroughly enjoyed, packed full of flavour and had a wonderful smooth consistency. The starters I chose from the buffet were sticky ribs, chicken sesame, spring rolls and salt and chilli chicken wings which were all delicious. The mains were well presented and looked lovely and fresh I just had a bit of everything the highlight was the sweet chilli chicken. I settled for a whisky sour for desert which was excellently mixed. All in all a good experience with helpful staff throughout.

I came here recently with a group of friends and had high expectations as every time I pass there are truck loads of people either coming out or going in, however I was left somewhat disappointed. The food, for a buffet, was ok. It didn't offer anything that was any different to other Chinese buffets and at times the food was a little dry. The teppanyaki grill was a welcome surprise, i ordered squid and dumplings.The squid was very chewy however the dumplings were delicious, I could have eaten a massive plate of those and been very happy! All in is an all you can eat buffet so it is pretty good in terms of value for money. If your looking for a big feed at a low cost give it a shot!

China China is a pretty decent Chinese restaurant in the Queen's Quarter of Belfast. It's a buffet style eatery, which just means one thing Competition time. Mealtimes here always turns into a secret competition with whoever you are with, about how many plates you can have; then everyone will talk tactics, like the first plate should be meat only, no point in wasting room with rice etc etc. It's a bit of fun. The food you can expect here is all the usual take away style Chinese, and a lot of it. It is constantly being brought out to refill the buffet table. It's all pretty good too. The place is a little dark and in need of a facelift, but that is grand since they are just about to move roun...

I'm not normally a fan of buffet style restaurants but enjoyed my first China China visit today, Wednesday 20.07.2016. I popped in for lunch with three friends as our usual Chinese restaurant rendezvous spot was closed over the July holiday season. Everyone in my party enjoyed the food and we will definitely return. Initially I thought there were very few vegetarian options for myself but soon discovered an array of vegetarian dishes including crispy seaweed, mushrooms, garlic potatoes, rice, noodles, mixed vegetables, spring rolls and a range of sauces such as satay, curry, black bean and sweet sour. For this unlimited buffet and a soft drink the cost was circa £9 per person (the lunch time...

All you can eat buffet, decent selection of food that is regularly replenished after 7pm more options become available including a teppanyaki cooking station although the chef seemed a little reluctant to serve anything from it. Tried some of the squid which unfortunately was overcooked and rubbery. From the buffet itself the crispy seaweed was delicious as were the garlic prawns and mussels but again rubbery squid. Salted chilli prawns chicken were also very good and the prawn toast was good. Spring rolls were disappointing, mine seemed to have missed out on having any filling. Lots of choice for dessert including freshly made crepes. I went for crepe with chocolate sauce, whippy icecream (...
