What a bargain this is, €5.85 for Adults, eat as much as you like and the standard of food is outstanding, the staff are extermely helpful and attentive without being "in your face", a great choice of dishes, Cantonese and Thai, I thoroughly recommend this place.

I love these places and if the foods good then that's a fantastic price.

I agree that they're great value-and handy when you're rushing to go to the airport, as you don't have to hang around waiting for the food to come.
What they do, though, is really jack up the price of the drinks. I ordered a Fanta orange and out in came in a nice big glass. Of course what they'd done was give me two, and charged me 4 euros!
So, next time, I specified a "small Fanta orange". Which was 2 euros. This was on 4 June. Did the same thing on 8 July and it was 2.35! A bit of a steep rise, I thought, so I took it off the tip. This was at the Siglo XX1 in CT, although I'm certain they all do it. Unlike the buffets (which are priced in very big letters all over the restaurants) the drinks prices aren't quoted. Bit like the tea with some of the cheap breakfasts that are around. Everyone has to make a living, but it's a bit sneaky..........

Call me a tight bas**rd but I never have a drink in these places for the reasons stated above. If you can't wait 1 hr for a drink then you deserve to pay exorbinate prices as there's nowt free in this world  |

I just need to wash the food down with a drink. I've always been the same! (Of course, in the example I quoted, waiting an hour would have meant buying it at the airport, which would be even more expensive!)

I'm the same - I need a drink with my meal... even if it's a bottle of water.
We were talking about places with pricey drinks today. I love Mamma Rossa's in Playa Blanca for their food, for example, but they're drinks are a nasty price! Seven euros for a large beer and a coke recently. It was the coke that was pricey - because it was a large bottle... but still!
