Chinarestaurant Pagoda in Göttingen

A place worth recommending, delicious food

This is a disaster, there is a lot of food. The only thing is the decor

Pagoda, no more. Unfortunately, we found that the quality of the lunch buffet had significantly deteriorated. Most of the food is cold, mussels are musty and prawns only taste like garlic, duck is fatty and dry, etc. The friendliness of the operating staff also takes some getting used to. In short, unfriendly. It also makes sense to get a detailed receipt when paying. This was the only way we could prove that we were being overcharged. Conclusion: The worst buffet we have experienced in a long time at excessive prices 👎👎👎

Wonderful great selection but unfortunately very full

Christmas, you really live here, pampering is a must, come again

Really highly recommended, especially the buffet and the friendly service staff

Absolutely recommended. The service is warm and friendly. The order was served quickly and the cocktails were very well mixed. The buffet is extensive and leaves nothing to be desired. Everything was extremely tasty. Fresh meat (including unusual varieties, such as kangaroo meat) is freshly prepared on a grill. Another highlight is the sushi conveyor belt.

The food is good and the selection is very large! The service was nice and helpful. Recommended for long feasts and for everyone who likes to eat a lot! The price is also OK 👌

The telephone reservation didn't work at all because there was hardly any language skills. Despite reassurance and a long journey, we were rejected very rudely. Mass processing in a rude manner. We save the ambience and value humanity. Pagoda? No thanks!

I went to this restaurant today and had a very unpleasant experience. I asked the person in charge of the dining room to clean the table, but instead of doing it himself, he just brought me the rag and expected me to do it myself - that's absolutely rude and inappropriate! When I complained to his manager, I got an even more shocking response: "If you want better service, you can book the premium service option and pay extra for a personal representative." I go to Pakoda and pay 150 euros or more - and then I'm supposed to listen to something like that? This is completely unacceptable and poor service!

A huge Chinese... Great food... Great service... Great lunch dishes... Always busy... Wide level entrance... In the restaurant everything is... Disabled toilet available... Parking situation is usually quite "tense", not enough! Unfortunately there is no disabled parking space...

Shortly before opening time we were sent out into the cold again

Very friendly welcome. Very friendly staff, all the delicacies your stomach and heart could desire. Many thanks to the Pagoda team 👌🙏

nice ambience. loud acoustics through the high ceilings.

Food was okay, unfortunately very, very loud and crowded and for a lunch of 17.90 I don't think it's an attractive offer anymore!

Friendliest staff I've ever seen. And the food 10/10 can only be recommended:)

We came here spontaneously and were totally thrilled with the food and everything about it. The food was fresh and always well refilled. It was a beautiful evening.

Located directly on the A7, Göttingen Nord exit, 5 min. Very large, comfortable guest room, it couldn't be more Chinese. The largest buffet I've ever seen, including fresh ingredients that are grilled by a chef and then brought to the table. We ate from the menu, it's clear, which suits me very well, what we ate was very good and at a great price. Very fast and nice service.

A former Volvo car dealership wonderfully converted into a Chinese restaurant. The buffet is generous and offers many ready-made dishes, but there is also the option to give something to the grill. The waiter was very nice and the empty plates were quickly picked up from the table. All in all we had a lovely evening

Everything really great. Particularly noteworthy is the funny, polite and friendly service that made us feel very comfortable. Thank you for the lovely evening

I've never had such a delicious buffet meal. Everything was fresh and good, whether it was sushi, ready-made food, salad, grilled food or dessert. The staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommended.

For me, the pagoda is worth a visit, especially for lunch. You can fill your stomach with the huge selection at the buffet and work off the feeling of fullness a little over the course of the day.

Very cool, but somehow impersonal.

I love the food. I love the location, the ambience, the friendliness of the staff. It's really highly recommended, and if you don't have a late evening, it's not that crowded. ! And if it is quite full, that just means that it is in high demand and there is a high number of guests who are very satisfied with the cuisine. Like me !!!! PS I'm looking forward to the next visit

A very nice restaurant, delicious buffet, everything well prepared. Very good service and courteous staff. Special requests were fulfilled. Clean toilets, everything was great. Price/performance very good.

It's amazing and suits everyone

Great restaurant. If there are several people, it is better to order in advance.

Simply great, I can recommend it to everyone

It's always pretty full and crowded. Personally, the sushi belt bothers me, especially if you want to eat a little more sushi than just two plates, it becomes difficult to carry unless you are sitting on the assembly line with three small children. But otherwise the food and the rest are good.

It was very nice there and the food was really good 👍 👍

We went there for lunch with 2 children. There is a buffet with a large selection of dishes, all of which tasted good. We will definitely eat there again. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Very good 👍 restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We are always here on Boxing Day. Always a pleasure. Very rich and tasty buffet. Everyone will find something for themselves here.

Good and large selection. Unfortunately all the food at the buffet was too cold. Everything tasted so far

I have never seen such a huge selection as a buffet before. No wishes are left unfulfilled here! The sushi selection is also great! Even a long journey is worth it! We were thrilled! The service is also very good and attentive! No wonder it's always busy! Great shop! Even if the free parking spaces are full, you can still find a place for your car! We would come more often if it wasn't so far away! But we can only recommend it!!

We've been out to eat twice now, everything went great, very large and delicious buffet, I can only recommend it but it's better to order in advance. Staff is very nice Thumbs up.

A very nice restaurant, with very nice staff and a large selection

I go there with friends every now and then to get something to eat and I always like to come back. Delicious food with a wide selection at the buffet and also a live grill. Great buffet Very friendly staff and very clean. I recommend it again and again

Good food, lots of choice Staff friendly

Food good and fresh. Very large and therefore rather uncomfortable. Parking situation bad in the evening

Great selection and taste, Mongolian buffet and 2 chocolate fountains, great👍🏻Update: was here again today on Boxing Day, everything was great again👍🏼

We ate there over Christmas, the first time since we're not from the area. The ambience is very nice, it is clean and well arranged. There are plenty of salad variations, sushi and desserts on offer. The main courses weren't really our thing. Very tasteless or unseasoned and I didn't find the selection very appealing either. The dessert and the salad tasted very good, even though the cake was cut into fairly minimal pieces so that when you got it you had already finished it. In terms of price/performance, I find it clearly too expensive (at least on public holidays) and personally I wouldn't be willing to pay the price again. I know far better all you can eat restaurants. Service was OK Parking difficult, at least when it's as busy as on public holidays And what else I personally have as a criticism, I think it would be good if alcohol were declared in desserts

Nice, rich buffet, highly recommended, good and fast service, drinks are a bit expensive, you only get an invoice receipt if you ask

I never thought I would have tasted such poor quality, disgusting food that was too expensive to eat as much as you want for half the price elsewhere. I definitely don't recommend it. Hygiene does not exist, hospitality we no longer talk about arrogant people who look at you or because you are going to eat at their place it is unimaginable that such a place exists in Germany.... unfortunately people do not look at the reviews shame to you

We had a wonderful evening and were able to sit with the family for a long time in a relaxed atmosphere. Above all, the quiet there was not to be expected given its size. Diverse buffet. Nice service, very friendly. Gladly again and again. LG from NRW and Saxony Anhalt

Of all the Chinese restaurants I've visited, this is the biggest and the best! Large selection of food and drinks, everything tastes fabulous, easy to get to, good free parking, what more could you want? I enjoy being there often, I'll add photos later🤗

Huge buffet selection 👍and super tasty 😋

We've lost our appetite. No matter where you took a plate, if you turned it over, there would still be food residue stuck to it. I noticed this when my fingers holding the plate felt greasy. The grease ran down my fingers. We were there at lunchtime. The hot dishes were only lukewarm. The buffet looks more like a leftover meal. Even the green ice cream trays still had food residue stuck to them. It was very disgusting. We otherwise enjoyed eating here and met the very friendly staff. However, the dirty dishes don't work at all.

Went there for the first time yesterday. The four of us hadn't made a reservation, which wasn't a problem and we were greeted very courteously. Food is fresh and plentiful, nothing was missing or empty. What I personally think is a shame is the buffet for frying yourself, as I miss more side dishes to fry such as pasta, otherwise everything is great. We'd love to come back.

Tastes good and very large selection.. Also recommended for a Christmas party!

Always very tasty and prices are reasonable too

very extensive buffet with a large sweets buffet

Everything is just one in Germany

We were there for the first time. Were invited by our son. The dishes are delicious. We had an “all inclusive” meal. The service was friendly.

Unfortunately, expensive but definitely delicious food

If you can't find anything at the buffet or are full, you can't be helped. Huge selection, great quality and nice staff. You shouldn't miss the fresh preparation from the Mongolian grill either

Mass instead of class! Nothing for us!

I went with my family to visit him. We were all happy and the food was delicious

Very tasty in a nice atmosphere

The taste was good, but unfortunately I woke up in the night with extreme heartburn (never had that before). In addition, the thinness has set in and I haven't come out of the toilet for 2 hours. It's a shame, but I can also have the same experience with a €3 kebab.

The best Chinese buffet I've been to so far (in Germany). Large store, fast and friendly staff and a gigantic selection of food. Everything was very tasty. I would go back at any time

Overall a very nice restaurant! Unfortunately for me (a passionate sushi eater) there wasn't much choice... For the rest of us there was a really great selection! It's worth making a reservation! We paid €95 for 4 people and it was a really great experience... for children and adults!

Delicious, delicious, delicious

Food was tasty but too oily and 200 euros Too expensive for two people

So awesome, the tastiest buffet I've ever eaten

Simply excellent. Quality of the food, cleanliness, ambience, friendliness.

Large restaurant with a lot of choice at the buffet. There is something for everyone here. The price is a little higher, but you get a variety.

We had lunch today on the occasion of our wedding anniversary. When we were greeted in the restaurant, the friendliness that we were used to from Pagoda was missing. The food tasted good, but was cold. We were really disappointed. It's a shame, we used to be happy and happy guests in the restaurant.

Nice lunch buffet, everything fresh and always plentiful. The staff is always friendly but sometimes they clear things up too quickly for my taste. However, when the restaurant is full, the setting is very close to a canteen. very loud. But all in all worth a visit.

Food is okay in terms of taste, one or the other doesn't have to be, but it's great and, above all, there's plenty of choice. Service is very attentive. What is a bit "steep" is the price for the buffet with Mongolian grill for 27.90. Nothing for people who are a little hungry

There are many kinds of food here. I find my own food and I can eat whatever I want. We have everything for us to make a living. We come here 3 or 4 times a year.

Great buffet, Unfortunately, the price for children (in the evening) is far too high, despite a great selection of ice cream, etc.

Very good and large selection of dishes and drinks, delicious cocktails. Pleasant prices. I drove an extra 120 km to eat here. Always my pleasure

We are satisfied thank you very friendly staff food was great we will be back thank you

Nice staff, lots of food in the buffet with good quality. Can be very crowded and loud at times.

Top selection, well seasoned, nice ambience

Always our location for family gatherings. We'll be back

The best buffet restaurant I've been to. The food is of very high quality. There are also kangaroo or shark and all other types of meat, which can be prepared on the grill with all kinds of vegetables if desired. You can also help yourself to various other ready-made dishes. There is also plenty of sushi on offer. The fruit and dessert bar leaves nothing to be desired, including a chocolate fountain. The cocktails are also highly recommended. It was another very nice evening...

Come in and feel good. Everything is just right here!!!!

Huge selection of Chinese dishes but also other dishes. Good cuisine and great taste. But ambience is more like canteen. In - eat - out.

Finally a restaurant again where the food tastes very good and the service sometimes jokes 😂😂👍👍 keep it up.

I'm very satisfied. The staff is always nice and friendly. We come here for dinner once every weekend! Very tasty buffet and it's cozy too.👍

First-class large buffet. If something runs out, it is quickly reproduced.

Very friendly and humorous staff, very large selection of different dishes at acceptable prices.

The selection is great, so many good quality delicacies are amazing. The SERVICE staff are always friendly and accommodating, we are always happy to come back.

To be there again and again. One service deserves special mention. Good looking and always with a quick saying. The food is always fresh! Keep it up Very suitable for wheelchair users.

Very very nice and great service. What I personally miss is the Chinese atmosphere but I still highly recommend it.

Spontaneously visited from Bad Hersfeld, warmly welcomed, plentiful and very tasty food, the rest packed with additional rice, affordable and just as warmly farewell. Great, you rarely find such a complete package... 👍

I always liked going to Pagoda and back then I felt like I was there 3-4 times a month; but now it has become so expensive... the price/performance ratio is simply no longer right here. So I go here maybe 2-3 times a year.

Let’s start with the food first, the quality was horrendous, the vegetables felt old and stale, the taste was very one tone. The carrots seemed like that had been refrigerated for a decade. We ordered a vegetarian option and a meat option, and both were equally disappointing. Maybe I am not well versed or cultured enough to know how Chinese food should taste, but I know for a fact that it doesn’t taste like that. Let’s come to the service now, every time we had to get the staff’s attention we had to get up and walk up to a table to talk to them, extremely inattentive. Absolutely would not recommend this to anyone. The only good thing was the beer, which thank god they did not make.

Nice service. Buffet is filled up quickly. You can get more chicken dishes here than in other Chinese restaurants. We like coming here.

There is enough food for everyone, the menu is really extensive. a large selection of meat, vegetables and side dishes, delicious desserts. The problem with the drinks is that they are served almost warm and even refuse to add ice. The wine didn't taste very good, the impression that the bottle was opened a long time ago. the beer wasn't bad. the cocktails were delicious. The service at the meeting was friendly, but the waiter who served us was in no mood to do his job and behaved completely unfriendly. the overall impression is 4-5 out of 10

A large selection, toilets top, food is great, price a bit steep. Although you can get a seat quickly without a reservation, my friends and I had to wait a long time until our orders were taken. We waited about 30 minutes and the waiters walked past us ignoring us. Unfortunately, my glass tipped over once, and none of the waiters who walked past removed the ice cubes from the table and wiped the table with a cloth. A few years ago the staff was better.

Delicious food, large selection

Buffet with a very large selection. Very friendly staff. Food very tasty.

Was great! You can't complain about anything. Of course the price is a bit expensive... but in my opinion it is absolutely justified by the offer. Running Sushi was great, not a huge selection but everything you needed. The same applies to the rest! Big recommendation :)

Everything is good but the prices are very expensive

The buffet leaves nothing to be desired. All dishes were excellently seasoned and very tasty. Friendly and helpful staff. I had forgotten my cutlery - the waitress noticed this and immediately provided me with the missing cutlery. All the employees were courteous and extremely friendly. We would be happy to come here again when we visit Göttingen. Highly recommended.

If you would like to eat Asian food, you are in good hands here. A large selection of dishes can be ordered as a buffet or menu. The kitchen can also usually satisfy individual wishes. A visit to the Pagoda is worth it and you should take time to enjoy it.

Absolutely gorgeous restaurant, inside and out!!!! Our food was delicious, hot, fresh, just wonderful! Suwae and John were truly a delight, and you must eat here, WOW, BEST ORIENTAL BUFFET WE'VE EVER BEEN TO!!!!! ♥️😋🤩 A+!! ♡♡♡Krissy&Joel from USA
