Reviews in Portsmouth

Could not fault this restaurant. Me and my family had a excellent experience. The food was delicious and we were spoilt for choice. Our 3 children of 12, 12 and 9 years old described it as ' being in a dream'. Fantastic service, used plates were quickly collected and nothing was too much trouble, very polite waiters/waitresses. We will definitely be back! Just could do with a little music in the air for atmosphere. Superb though.

Good food but cold. As soon as we got to the table the whole plate of food was cold which meant that it wasn't hot enough when we picked it up from the trays. Otherwise all was good

Great food and amazing service

Amazing buffet. Almost everything is perfect in taste. Service was also good.

A good experience but it was a shame that the grill meats were not available due to equipment malfunction. We will check all food offerings are available before we book again as this is one of our favorite accompaniments. We went for an earlier than normal sitting (18:00) and there was not much energy from staff who all seemed like they already had a long shift…

Never fails Fabulous food every time I visit Smart and courteous staff Friendly atmosphere The place to go

Great as always, thank you.

Food was nice, good selection of dishes. Very busy as it was a weekend so abit of a fight at times to get to what you wanted. Was very disappointed that other tables had their children's birthdays acknowledged but my son didn't even after putting it on booking and asking at the resturant. Can't say I would visit again

First time at Spoons, family of 4. Fantastic variety of options. Staff were pleasant and great value for money! All of us had a wonderful time at Portsmouth Spoons.

Lovely setting will defo be back again soon

Great lovely fresh food family friendly

Not impressed at all. Pizza station was one dry cheese pizza. Roast pork was salty and dry. Chinese beef dish was inedible. After visiting cosmos, I was very disappointed. Will not visit again.

We had a lovely meal. Lots of choice and very fresh.

Excellent food with something to suit everyone. Allergens clearly marked. Plates taken away quickly and staff were lovely and helpful.

Enjoyed the wide variety of food but disappointed that there was no lobster and the only other fish was a rather bland salmon dish. Some background music may enhance the atmosphere

First time visiting this place. We have tried many buffets around ie Cosmos, JRC, DAYS etc. We arrived at 17:00 there was a big queue mainly be because payment is collected before you enter. This was the most expensive plays among the other places we have been as children greater than 3 pay half price. I think it should be less. There is no refillable place for water so you need to keep going back to the bar for a small cup of water each time which is annoying. They should have jugs for a table. There is a lot of food variety and the meals are tasty so that’s a big plus. Dessert doesn’t have many options which was disappointing. Overall for my ratings over 10 Food 8/10 Dessert 5/10 Drinks 6/10 cheap version of coke Cost - a bit too expensive Overall 6.5 Need to address the water situation

Greeted by a smiley man on reception and another upon entering the restaurant. Atmosphere was like a hotel restaurant in an all inclusive hotel in Turkey or so. Large selection of foods to suit everyone, chicken I felt was overcooked and vegetables were very soggy. The sushi was perfect and the dim sum. Cheap brand coke, lemonade etc but was fine. Staff cleaned away any plates and mess very quickly. We will go back again sometime but will perhaps try a different Chinese buffet first.
