The choice was very good but very sorry to say the food was not very hot. Round just one time finish with a cold plate of food . Don't think I will be coming back
Gary Horwood
Had high expectations for this restaurant but was sadly disappointed. The initial service and greeting were good but the food was not! The food was varied but unfortunately served cold or at best warm and the beef was chewy. Having paid nearly £40 for 2 meals, we will not be visiting again

A pre-theatre buffet ought to be a straightforward proposition. You arrive, help yourself to a decent plate of food, perhaps go back for something you particularly enjoyed, and head off to the auditorium pleasantly fed and ready for an evening's entertainment. Simple enough, you might think. Apparently not. We visited Mi Panda at Warwick Arts Centre before a show, which you might reasonably imagine would be prime time for a restaurant whose principal selling point is having food ready and waiting. Instead, we found ourselves surveying what appeared to be the aftermath of a particularly unsuccessful office Christmas party. The spring rolls were limp, the crispy duck had vanished entirely (assuming it had ever made an appearance), and what remained of several dishes was languishing in the bottom of serving trays, surrounded by sauces slowly congealing into something that might have interested a food scientist. The prawn crackers existed only as an empty bowl, presumably as a tribute to happier times. Rice and noodles, those great dependable staples of the Chinese buffet, were represented by forlorn little quantities huddled at the bottom of enormous serving bowls. And nothing, absolutely nothing, was properly hot. Which is quite an achievement for a restaurant specialising in food that's supposed to be served hot. Dessert offered little consolation. The chocolate fountain was nowhere to be seen, the selection was miserly, and there was precisely one choice of fruit. One. At this point, a tin of fruit cocktail would have felt positively extravagant. Did we complain? No. We had a show to get to, and frankly lacked the time or enthusiasm to embark upon a search for someone who might care. The staff appeared to have perfected the art of looking straight through their customers, which, given the state of the buffet, was perhaps a useful professional skill. The whole experience had less of the atmosphere of a restaurant and more that of a badly managed staff canteen, late on a Friday afternoon, after everyone responsible for replenishing the food had gone home. I don't expect Michelin-starred cuisine from an all-you-can-eat buffet. I do, however, expect there to be something worth eating, preferably at a temperature above that of the surrounding room. Mi Panda managed to turn the promise of abundance into a rather depressing exercise in scarcity. We won't be back.

Very disappointing. Most of the food items had run out and we had to wait ages for them to be restocked. They didn’t prepare a table for our booked party so they had to move the tables around when we arrived. Also very expensive if you have tall children who exceed the height limit. We have been several times before and this was the worst Also the chocolate fountain has been removed even though they advertise it

Clean, good food, lots of choices. Staff is great The downside is that it feels a bit expensive if you have children taller than 1.4 m who don’t eat much.

Staff were amazing, my son started choking due to Arfid and they did everything they could to support us. They kept checking that we were all ok. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was brilliant.

We have dined in the restaurant many times, to host guests and privately. The food is good and with variety. Staff are providing good services. I do have one observation regarding the crockery, particular the teapot served on the table. It doesn't pour well, often leak and dribble the tea all over the table or floor. There is room to improve. Overall, my guests and I enjoy eating there.

We had lunch at Panda Mami for a birthday celebration. We liked the wide choice of dishes, with plenty of vegetarian options and very clear labels for nuts, gluten etc (one minor caveat: I would have liked to see labelling on the desserts too). All very tasty! Amazingly good value for the set price including soft drinks at £13.99 per person and especially the free birthday meal offer. The staff were great and made it really special - they sang 'happy birthday' with cake and candles to blow out at the end of our meal. We look forward to eating at Panda Mami again soon!
