Reviews in Portsmouth

We headed over from the Isle of Wight, as my daughter wanted to go there as a treat. But ended up disappointed as we were met by the receptionist telling me that anyone over 150cm pays full price. I was disgusted, both children in my party that had to pay full price barely ate half of what an adult would eat. Both 12 years old. Experience was ok and food selection was good. But we will not be rushing back at those prices. My value for money score is based on who is an adult and who is a child. I can’t argue with £20 for an adult but children should be up until 16 at least.

3rd time visiting We we’re there at half 12 ,good choice in food but food was cold , visited twice before later in the day and had no problems . Not impressed this time would have thought it would all be fresh and hot at the beginning of lunch .

the overall experience was very good although my husband got a pork and shrimp bun that was off already, the meat inside was so smelly that of rotten food. I did take it to the manager and complained.He just said thank you.

Table was booked for 730 and they weren’t cooking anymore food which wasn’t made clear. We felt rushed and was told to get dessert quickly as they were clearing away, this was at 830 even though it shut at 10. Food was also warm not hot.

It was really nice thank you

First time at spoons There was 10 of us for my daughters birthday 6 adults & 4 The food was lovely and hot the variety of good & clean and the children absolutely loved it and The freedom to pick what they wanted like little adults definitely do another trip .

First time visiting. Wouldn't go back. Food was freezing, no matter what chicken dish we grabbed, it was pink on the inside. Dirty tables and dirty plates. Miserable stuff walking around. Terrible value for money. We ate half a plate then left and had to go elsewhere for dinner.

It was our first time. There were five of us including kids. It is a busy place, the food is very good, service is good, welcoming and accommodating. We had a great time! The kids loved the dessert buffet and sushi conveyor. Thank you.

Honestly never fails to amaze me, and continues to improve with each visit. I visited with some friends who had never been on Tuesday the 13th, and there was even pancakes there for pancake day. Truly the best all you can eat buffet I have ever been to. Not only is there variety, the food itself is sensational. I also love how you can try new things and the staff never look judgey if you do not finish your plate, and want to get up for something else.

After several issues reference booking a table,we found Spoons ok,Staff we're polite,happy,friendly nothing was too much bother.Food was plentiful and there was a huge selection,depending on what you fancied.To be honest we preferred Spoons compared to the all you can eat restaurant in Fareham.It was valve for money & the drinks we're not very expensive either.We will be back sometime in the near future.

As always very good service, good food and very enjoyable, very good value for money we have been a couple of times and never been disappointed

Terrible. Fatty meat. Pasta and pizza awful. Not all food stations were open. Had a cup of water in a child’s cup. Most of all I booked after looking up the prices online and was £14.99 per person. When we arrived it was £18.99 per person. I told the person that took my money that you need to update your website with prices. She said that is down to the customer. Will never go back.

Have visited a few times and I find it’s good value for money but some things are watery or left out too long and gone dry. There was confusion regarding my booking where some of the party wasn’t there and we ended up paying for everyone which was easily sorted. I find the bar staff quite rude as I am always standing along the bar and one time I didn’t I was asked to not queue behind the person and move but my last visit people were stood where I had with nothing mentioned. The drinks are very reasonably priced.

This is our 3rd time here but the first 2 times we went at lunch time. Which was lovely and had no problems. But we went as a family of ten which we booked for 6pm. The table was clean and set out. But it was so busy there lots of trays of food empty and when we asked for more they said it's just coming but it didn't. Also there was no plates in the areas were plates should be so had to keep asking for a plate. Then when we went for dessert there was no bowls. We paid alot more for the evening buffet then we do at lunchtime but we will not be coming back again for the evening it was not worth the money.

Food was amazing as always. Staff where very good at getting rid of used plate on the table. Will definitely go back.

The staff were amazing! The waiter was great with removing plates, the bartender was really nice and gave really good options for their beers, and the food was incredible!

We went as a mixed aged family group., for my granddaughter 12th birthday. Service was without fault. We all enjoyed our meal. And will return.

Had a lads night out on Tuesday 23.1.24 Plenty of food to be had, good quality and hot Staff always topping up when getting low Plates cleared from table quickly Overall another great night Good value for money We will return
