Reviews in Castleford

I have been to this restaurant on many occasions and each time the food was excellent. The quality superb with a choice to suit everyone's taste. Staff always friendly. Bar meals are the same as the restaurant but smoking is currently allowed in the bar (role on July 1st). The carvery is well recommended but leave room for a sweet from the trolley.

We have been to China City several times, great selection of dishes; I don’t know how they do it for the money. The service is first class, we have taken the kids and their mates for 3 birthday parties, they love it.

This is all of my families favourite Chinese Buffet Restaurant. It has a wide variety of dishes which are all delicious, and on an evening there are so many more to choose from, we are always spoilt for choice! The Eastern Court is also very contemporary (decor wise) which we love. We have recommended it to all our friends and work colleagues and those that have been have not been disappointed. We go at least once a fortnight. We love it. It certainly outdoes every other buffet restaurant we have tried...and believe me, we have tried many.

Been here several times and I have to agree with the posts made below. There is a decent selection of food to be sampled and the majority of it is to a good standard. Go for the buffet option every time as you can have as little or as much as you like (Never understood why people opt for set menu's where there is the option of a buffet) Definitely worth a try. I must disagree with the comment raised that it is better than Eastern Court. This is equally as good.

i always eat here its that good please go and see what i mean

Dined out midweek in the a la carte area which is upstairs. The food was superb, the choice was fantastic and the ambience was tasteful and relaxed. Service at the Eastern Court was brisk and efficient, though certainly without any superfluous chit chat - be prepared for this if you intend to go as otherwise it may spoil your evening! There were 9 of us dining, and we were comfortably seated around a large table with a lazy Susan middle. It was a Thursday evening and the place was certainly busy without being overcrowded. The food was unanimously splendid, quantities were sufficient and enjoyed. Presentation was to a good standard. As we had made a reservation for the table, the food was half price, which was pleasant, with no evidence of any 'discounting' on the quality of the meal.

Have eaten here a few times and have always found the food to be good, hot and in abundance. Whilst the food is good, the service is a little lacking, espescially in customer service and general manners. The last two times I visited I was met by the waiter at the door looking at his watch. We were told that we could eat but we had to be in and out within 30 minutes. This makes for a hurried and unenjoyable meal (compounded by the fact that our drinks didn't arrive until 5 minutes before we had been asked to leave) It could be said that it was our fault and that we had been given warning HOWEVER whilst we were sat eating a couple arrived, sat in the buffet section, ordered drinks and were then asked by the head waiter if they would like to continue dining elsewhere in the builing as he was about to ask people to leave. Please note that if you like Chinese food (and good quality Chinese food) then this place is one of the better restaurants offering a buffet service. Be advised to make sure you don't sit down to eat near any of the overlap times as you will either be asked to leave prematurely or will be waiting............ and waiting............... and waiting to get your food. Eastern Court - Thumbs up for your food, thumbs down for your service.

Best Chinese Buffet we have been to, Elements in Xscape and Eastern Court are nowhere near as nice as this one. Loads of choice on starters, and crispy duck included too, everything always seems fresh and always hot. A really nice atmosphere too and the staff are really helpful and friendly. Drinks can be a bit pricey, but worth it for the quality of the food!!

After trying out the buffets in Leeds City Centre which were good value for money, we found this place which was more than that. The decor and ambience of the place was excellent. There is also another restaurant upstairs which looked posh but was actually moderate in price. The dessert section of the buffet was superb.

the most thing is i like is take your own drink the food is fantastic the service is good go and try naga tarkari

Go for the buffet! Lovely food, great variety, stunning value! A wonderful selection of dim-sum style starters and crispy duck, and a full compliment of mains with several rice / noodle varieties. Thin on puddings, but hey, you'll be too stuffed. Oyster Bay NZ sauvignon blanc is a good choice, at prices only slightly above supermarket. Forget Eastern Court round the corner folks, this is the real deal with a warm and buzzing informal atmosphere. Starve yourself all day and do the buffet justice!

Very good restaurant, Mexican, and a service very good excelent, and always the best place to relax and eat

v good try it

A welcoming building with a soft internal atmosphere, clean both inside and out. The staff are very friendly and obliging. All together a very well run establishment worth visiting
