Oriental Gourmet Dortmund in Dortmund

I finally wanted to give a review, We've been eating there for years. The food is always hot and delicious too. The staff is friendly and the used dishes are cleared away immediately. BUT since there is this time limit, you are immediately told in your face that you can ONLY stay here for 2.5 hours (otherwise you have to pay) then you immediately don't feel like it anymore and would like to turn around and leave, because if so man already pays €30 per person, and that's €130 per family, and we go there with several families and then you pay €500 and you want to spend the time together and eat and chat in peace, but You then constantly look at the clock because it has remained in the back of your mind because of these strange TIME LIMITS!!!

Typical all you can eat buffet, only the "radio operators" who constantly sneak around the buffet and in their native language, probably eating after ordering, are a bit annoying!

There were four of us in October 2024, 25 per person, everything was delicious, we’re going again today (my wife and I and 3 grandchildren)

Update! Wow, really bad today! Nothing was warm, at most lukewarm, with good will. Offer very limited, dessert can't even be seen as a joke; Aldi frozen cake quartered and placed on a plate, a bag of cream puffs defrosted. The chocolate fountain was not only unappetizing, but even the bowls with (canned) fruit were empty, it couldn't get much worse. Among other things, the duck was completely dry, the sauces were tasteless, but the broccoli was at least almost raw :-( our companion said, "It looks like leftover food..." Waitress wasn't really friendly, in response to our complaint: no problem... for us it was... All in all a bad evening, the boss somehow didn't care, he still wanted full price for poor service. Since this store will never see us again anyway, he could put the voucher somewhere else... what a disappointment, unfortunately minus stars don't work, it would be deserved!

I don't really know how to express my impression here. We were there on Saturday at 5 p.m. for a buffet meal. Some of the food was cold in the warming container or dried out. At 6 p.m. there was no more fruit, only canned fruit. Children push the robot around and block it, and eat what has been prepared at each table. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, which is unfortunately ruined by the eating behavior of some people (leftover food is thrown on the floor). There is a small carpeted room where the children can go. (not recommended!) It's better to take a coloring book and pencils with you as your children will get more out of it. I paid a total of €38 for me and my daughter, which is totally fine for a buffet meal (if everything was there). I understand that there are sometimes bottlenecks. Unfortunately I can't give any recommendations for the store, the only positive thing was the employees, who are super nice and friendly.

Really not a nice place for me. Food wasn't very tasty either. Were there with a larger group during the week.

Very clean and tasty. Friendly staff.

I was there yesterday and everything wasn't as real as the pictures, I don't recommend it

Almost everything was cold. Choice very little. Even the Fanta was disgusting. The sauces like a poorly made Knorr sauce.

A really nice and inexpensive restaurant. Even our children - who don't like going to restaurants - really like it here. Of course, the so-called “cat robot” helps. He brings the self-prepared dishes from the grill directly to the table and is just as friendly as the rest of the “staff”. This is of typical quality, the selection is good and every wish is fulfilled upon request. Since the drinks (soft drinks and water) are already included in the price and because there are multi-tiered prices for children, the overall price is absolutely right.

Simply very good and recommended to everyone! Good food, soft drinks included, everything clean

Good value for money. You also have to look at how much you pay. The selection at the buffet isn't very large but the items on offer were fresh and warm. The staff is friendly and helpful. We were in the middle of it. Month there and it wasn't overcrowded and full. I found this very pleasant. The tables were clean and the toilets were clean too. We will certainly come back when we are nearby.

There used to be more choice there, food was more cold than warm. I have to get back to my old strength before I can award more points🙈 now that I was there again today to give it a second chance. Unfortunately, I have to say that nothing has changed except that it has become even more expensive. It remains at 1 star 😡😡😡

I recently visited this Chinese restaurant and to be honest I was a bit disappointed. The food was okay – nothing special, but not bad either. Typical middle class dishes that serve their purpose, but offer no culinary highlights. The ambience was also average - clean and functional, but lacking any particular charm or atmosphere. What really stunned me, however, was the look into the kitchen: the cook was standing there with a lit cigarette in his mouth! Hygiene and cleanliness are the be-all and end-all in a restaurant and this was truly unacceptable. It completely shattered my trust in the kitchen and handling the food. Something like this should absolutely not happen in a professional restaurant business. I sincerely hope that the restaurant takes this matter seriously and takes appropriate measures to prevent such incidents in the future. Unfortunately, after this experience I cannot recommend the restaurant.

Cheap Chinese Restaurant! Something for every taste. The restaurant should be renovated. The employees are very hard working and the robot is a nice gimmick! 🤖

At the entrance the money would be collected immediately. There were towels in the women's toilet and people would vomit on the floor, definitely never again.

Highly recommended, very tasty, good selection.

The review from the lady in front of me is total nonsense! I can absolutely recommend this buffet restaurant. I go here very often and the food is delicious, everything is cooked perfectly and nothing is raw! The staff are very attentive. The plates are taken from the table very quickly so that there isn't a mountain of plates piling up. Furthermore, the selection is quite large and it is always refilled very quickly if something is empty. The lady in front of me recommends the Gourmet Tempel on Bornstr, it is the worst buffet restaurant in Dortmund, the employees work there in sweatpants and the food is frozen goods.

Were there again today after a long time. But I have to say that it was very disappointing. Quality of the meat was very poor, cold, everything tasted the same. The fried fish was still raw 🤢. Straciatella quark was as if it was bad (tasted bitter)🤮🤮🤮 The watermelon was overripe (very soft) Staff very unfriendly, children aged 10 and over count as adults.??!! You could have said it normally. Tone of voice was not appropriate. Waited at the table for 30 minutes to pay. Then went to the front...Paid plus a tip. And then didn't even get a fortune cookie.😡😡😡Kids were very sad Our conclusion: Better go to Bornstrasse.😉 Never go here again!!!

Drinks are included, but the selection of drinks is very limited and self-service. Coffee and beer must be paid additionally.

I finally wanted to give a review, We've been eating there for years. The food is always hot and delicious too. The staff is friendly and the used dishes are cleared away immediately. Will be going back soon!!!

The highlight for me was the robot that brings the selected freshly prepared dishes to the table.

Very crowded and very loud. Food wasn't that great 😔

Price-performance is great...everything was delicious...the only thing that bothers me are the heavy chairs that you can hardly move...otherwise everything was great!

The buffet was good, the food from Mongolian buffet/grill was better. Nice staff and good service. Will definitely come back again.

Great classic buffet with a nice owner.

Nice clean restaurant and friendly staff. The plates should be made of porcelain and not plastic. The food is very tasty and fresh. The price is also right

Very friendly service, great food, nice atmosphere. These heavy chairs are sometimes difficult to tame. There is a very large amount of ready-made dishes. What I missed here was the selection of fresh vegetables to grill. This automated cat that brings food to the table is cute. A great way to reduce the work pressure of those working there. Was there for the second time and was very satisfied.

We were there again today. It was delicious and the staff was super friendly. Would love to come back

Truly extraordinary! The best Chinese I've ever eaten at! Friendly! Everything fresh, everything refilled immediately! There was nothing that I didn't like. I have a suggestion for improvement for the toilets. Please update something! There were only 2 toilets open and only one faucet that you had to press the whole time. Update: The toilets have been renewed! Looks good and everything is fine!

My choice was not good. Firstly, the service was poor. Secondly, the food was of poor quality and the drinks were like water.

As always, price & performance ratio very good!

So far everything is great. Large selection.

Chinese restaurant with the "classic" buffet. The quality of the food is good and is replaced relatively quickly if something is no longer available. We like to eat Asian food sometimes, but since there is usually only a buffet and only rarely à la carte, it's a compromise for us. You can't go wrong here and you can also go out to eat with a group, but unfortunately it's always just a buffet.

Great price-performance ratio. Buffet and drinks for 22 euros. I think it's the cheapest place we've visited at the moment. What more do you need.

Very tasty here and a huge selection, great for the price. 👍

Price performance is world class. Everything was hot and constantly being refilled, and the staff was also super accommodating and friendly. Clear recommendation!

Unfortunately we were very disappointed yesterday. The food was no longer warm and was sometimes really hard and dry. The containers weren't filled very well either, but rather sparsely filled. It wouldn't have been a problem if the containers weren't well filled, but the food was hot and fresh. Unfortunately none. The drinks are also not that good because they rely on syrup. Two syrup containers were also empty and only water came out. Unfortunately my last visit.

Unfortunately one dish was "tilted" otherwise good

The grilled food is raw and the food is cold and not worth my recommendation

The signs don't match the food on display, empty food containers are only refilled to a limited extent, and most of the food is only lukewarm. Large restaurant with free choice of seating. Some of the staff seem unfriendly and annoyed. Even the price can't make up for it all.

Only the toilets suck. I hope the kitchen doesn't look like that.

Very nice staff. The selection of food is great, there is even slush ice cream and soft ice cream, which the children are of course very happy about. Everything tastes good too. Unfortunately, the churros taste like chicken. The drinks are also free, so the price is very reasonable.

Yes, a good old all you can eat and drink Chinese. I think this thing was once an Aldi. If you have it prepared, a robot cat will bring it to the table, really fun. Quality is really ok and lots of selection. Go there every now and then

We were there with a communion group. We were about 30 people. I didn't like the food. The service didn't understand orders and then brought something similar. I had the impression that the service was overwhelmed.

Very nice selection of delicious products, the outdoor area could be better maintained.

Was okay. The food was lukewarm and I wasn't particularly impressed

Payment only possible in cash or EC card. Other means of payment are not accepted, which is clearly signposted at the entrance.

There is a good selection of food. It was tasty and hot. Unfortunately the drinks are nothing. Tastes stale without carbonation.

Drinks from plastic cups? Lukewarm food, some meat not cooked through, others completely fried to death... It was our first and last time eating here! Paid just under €95 for 4 people and as a bonus the whole night left your stomach rumbling. Thank you too!

We ate there yesterday and unfortunately we can't recommend it. Around 7 p.m. almost everything at the buffet was empty (open until 9:30 p.m.) and it wasn't refilled. When I asked about something specific, I was told to please eat something else. Ice cream was completely empty and wasn't refilled even at this time and other desserts were also empty. It's clear that you don't cook a ton of food at this time of day, but you should still have enough food on hand and stock up on things like ice cream that aren't bad the next day.

It was okay but reluctant again

The food is very tasty and the buffet is replenished. A wide selection of dishes. Went there with the family and everyone loved it.

We were there for the first time today. The restaurant is really nice, but the service is very poor and the food wasn't really tasty either. It was hardly refilled either. The drinks were syrup with water, very bad 🤐 it's a shame, we hoped for more.

Have been here several times and have always been satisfied. Of course you can never compare a buffet with à la carte, but the quality of the food is still good and fresh supplies are regularly delivered. The soft drinks included in the price are definitely a bonus point.

We give well-intentioned 3 stars. We were there for the first time today. Unfortunately for us it will be the last time. We also explain why. The drinks only tasted like water (whether lemon or iced tea). Then the food was no longer hot. And there were only small portions in the respective containers and were not refilled. Overall, the frying was really tasty, but I only had prawns fried; my companions were happy with the fried meat. So if you want to eat cheaply, don't expect too much here.

Good Asian buffet restaurant with lots of choice and good taste.

Good selection, the freshly prepared is very good.

The food was okay, but the included drinks were NOT, the cola had almost no carbon dioxide and the iced tea had far too much syrup.

Feels like you're in Nordmark or Romania now. Never again

Since my family and I had dinner there last night, we have had diarrhea. We will never enter this store again.

Large selection, but some of the meat was dry. Otherwise huge selection of fish, meat, vegetables, etc

Were there again. Food delicious, price performance is right. Staff very friendly 😊I would love to come back. Always my pleasure. 👍

Food was hot, it was constantly topped up. Very attentive staff! Gladly again

Was eating a buffet for the first time. Unfortunately I have to say that my food isn't OK either. But getting drinks and eating everything myself is just not my thing. The waiting time for extra drinks orders was quite long. So all in all I felt more like I was in a canteen.

I went home hungry from the buffet, something I've never experienced before and after three bites I got a bad stomach ache and a bad stomach ache and I wouldn't even come back if they paid me 16 euros to eat at the buffet For 160 euros it's really not worth the food poisoning to me

There were about 30 of us, it was really great, it was very tasty, it was always delivered after everyone had everything. The table was always covered when we were finished with one session, I can really recommend it

Food didn't taste good and I got diarrhea from eating it

Food: Very tasty and freshly prepared, everything seasoned well,😊 Service: friendly and courteous staff. Ambiance: cleanly run restaurant, good parking facilities. All in one a very good restaurant. I can only recommend. Always happy to come back. Great value for money 😊

Good selection and good service

We were there on the weekend. I was pretty disappointed. I celebrated my birthday there and the atmosphere there was not pleasant. From 8:30 p.m. we waited until we finally left. From then on nothing was refilled. There were still a lot of guests in the house, but nothing was noticeable anymore. I was really waiting for churros and banana balls for example... so in the end there wasn't even any dessert. The machines were turned off, slush ice cream...there was just a note saying it was out of order. The store is open until 10 p.m., but apparently they close down at 8:30 p.m. We paid and afterwards there was neither a thank you nor a nice evening. Very bad service! I liked the large selection.

Was here for the second time now. Very good buffet, the noodles weren't that tasty this time. Likewise the chocolate pudding, which tasted very much like water. The tiramisu and the fried vanilla cream score points. It's not oriental but rather Chinese. I can highly recommend it. You always get a place, even without a reservation. There is enough parking space in front of the restaurant. The price is also completely ok at around 25 euros including soft drinks.

Poor selection, terrible drinks, everything tastes like water. The whole buffet has no taste. Chocolate fountain disgusting, totally liquid and light and the chocolate didn't get hard at all. Unfortunately it's no longer what it was. No longer recommended. There really is better...

Everything was perfect this time, 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Taste underground, cold and terribly seasoned. For me, the store is definitely out of the question

Are pretty upset. Since we, as regular guests, have always been able to take our dog with us (on weekdays AND also on weekends), we were told this evening that we had to leave again because of our dog. It was explained to us that bringing dogs into the restaurant was only permitted on weekdays, but was not possible on weekends due to an increased number of guests. However, there were a lot of free tables where we could have been seated, so we couldn't understand this decision and we were forced to leave the location and will avoid this restaurant on weekdays in the future.

Le choix du menu peut etre varié surtout sushi, il y en avait pas bcp et il remettez pas systematiquement. C'est acceptable en gros

Große Auswahl am Buffet und das Essen schmeckt gut. Wer möchte kann sich auch sein eigenes Gericht zubereiten lassen.

Waren wir früher gerne und oft im OG, so passt heute Preis/Leistung nur noch zusammen, wenn man entsprechend viel verzehrt. Die Preise haben sich fast verdoppelt (Corona, Ukraine), ohne das es dafür einen echten Mehrwert gibt… Schade

Das Essen ist Okay wenn es dann mal aufgefüllt ist aber leider sehr lau warm. Die Getränke sind ice Tee, limo, Cola, Wasser mal normal und in zero... Ist nichts besonderes.. Die Gläser sind so klein das man alle drei schlücke sich wieder anstellen muss. Im ganzen gesehen gibt es bessere all you can eat buffet, wo Kaffee und mehr Softdrinks drin sind. Einmal zum testen und nie wieder.

Super Super Genial Toll Auswahl ist SUPER nicht zuviel nicht zu wenig. SUPER ist das man auch selber aussuchen kann wieviel an Soße für den Grill auswählen kann. GENIAL ist das Dessert Buffet unteranderen verschiedene Eissorten + Softeis. War ein Toller Geburtstag

Essen und Getränke inklusive !! Für das Geld top. Wir gehen regelmäßig

Furchtbar laut. Essen ganz ok jedoch unhygienisch. Muss ich nicht nochmal hin.

Es war eine tolle Erfahrung. Das Essen war fantastisch und stets frisch und alles heiß. Preis-Leistung war angemessen. Das Personal ist freundlich und zügig mit dem abräumen. Das Highlight ist natürlich die Roboterkatze die einem das Essen an den Tisch bringt, welches man zuvor frisch zubereiten lässt. Dafür daß es ein umgebauter Lidl ist, sind die Räumlichkeiten fabelhaft. Leider gibt es einen Stern Abzug für die Sanitäranlagen, die für meine Verhältnisse gerne etwas sauberer sein könnten. Ansonsten gerne jederzeit wieder 🙂

Essen war teilweise recht kühl gewesen Der Service war unterirdisch...Nachbar Tisch hatte sich Fleisch zubereiten lassen und jedes Mal hielt die Bedienung meinen Mann den Teller unter der Nase und jedes Mal hatte sie ihren Daumen direkt am essen liegen..Teller wurde kaum abgeräumt aber dafür wom fast volles Glas..Brauchten wahrscheinlich Gläser weil so gut wie keine mehr dort standen. Unfreundlich war man auch noch...Die Bedienung sollte auf Anweisung noch einen Tisch an der Wand stellen. Wir und der Nachbar Tisch machten sie drauf aufmerksam das da niemand mehr vorbei kommt..Schnipsig ging sie erst weg,kam wieder und nahm den Tisch weg und knurrte sich was in den Bart. Nie wieder..

Leider kann ich keine 5 Sterne geben,da das Lokal als Behinderten gerecht eingestuft wird.Also,auf dem Behinderten Parkplatz steht einer von den Löwen.Kann man also nicht parken,Laternen sind aus.Die Toiletten sind teilweise defekt.Bei der Behinderten Toilette fehlen leider die Griffe.Ansonsten war es toll Das essen ist super und das Personal aufmerksam und zuvorkommend.Auch sind alle sehr nett gewesen Preis-Leistung war ok.

Gut zu erreichen. Sehr freundliches Personal. Sauber. Ein gut überschaubares Buffet, für jeden was dabei. Die Speisen sehr lecker. Super Preis Leistung.

Sehr gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis, Preis inkl. Getränke, reichlich Auswahl am Buffet und es schmeckt alles sehr gut.

Weihnachten hatten wir einen Tisch reserviert. Essen war ok. Buffet wo ich es überall erhalte. Softgetränke waren schrecklich , weit weg von dem angepriesenen Markengetränken.Nur Plastikgeschirr, was ich mehr als grenzwertig finde in Bezug auf die Hygiene. Service war keiner vorhanden. Schon zu Beginn bekamen sie die zwei Angestellten aufgrund unserer Reservierung und Tischzuweisung lautstark in die Haare. Platz genommen direkt an der Rauchertüre, welche sich ständig öffnete und eine Wolke Qualm und kalte Luft zu unseren Tisch brachte. Zu den Toiletten möchte ich mich erst gar nicht äußern. Naja, irgendwie muss der Preis ja zu Stande kommen. Leider nicht kundenorientiert und einladend. Einmal ausprobiert und das war es.

Völlig okay...Preis Leistung stimmt

Sehr gut und ordentlich,sauber,große Auswahl von Gerichte,Buffet ist super, inkl.Getränke. Das Restaurant verfügt über einen Raum für die Kinder und auch Raucher sind willkommen, der Raucherraum ist besonders bei schlechtem Wetter gemütlich . Nur zum empfehlen👍👍👍

Einfach super lecker. Waren das erste mal da. Und wir waren begeistert.👍👍 Preis-Leistung ist super. Sind auch alle super nett. Kommen gerne wieder.

Buffet wird nijct nachgefüllt wenn es leer ist. Personal ist überfordert

Oh man heute waren wir mit der familie essen.ich weiß, es ist stressig und viel action gewesen aber wenn man so große Werbung betreibt sollte man auch hinterher kommen... Es fing ja schon mit dem Platz an war natürlich 2 Monate vor Reserviert für 20 Personen aber wurde natürlich verpennt also mussten sich für uns einige Leute umsetzten. Kaum am Buffet war das meiste natürlich leer Gabeln gab es auch erstmal nicht. Nach einiger Zeit waren dan die becher von der zapfanlage auch Mangel ware und rar und obwohl man aus hygienischen Gründen ja nicht nochmal mit den angesabberten becher an der Anlage geht musste man es machen. Klopapier gab es auch kein so das man die Handtücher aus den spender gezogen hat was dem zufolge dan auch rasch leer war. Peperoni hab ich 2 mal nach gefragt ob man was nach legen kann aber in den ganzen 2 Std wurde nicht einmal was nach gelegt.

Das Essen war super. Alles da und gut zubereitet.

Viel Auswahl, sehr freundlich - jedoch war der Fisch nicht durch gegart und extra Bestellungen wurden leider nicht verstanden... Was ich allerdings von einer Tischbedienung erwarte. Toilette ist runtergerockt und sollte dringend gemacht werden.

Sehr lecker, und geschmackvoll.

Leider war es mal viel besser gewesen Die Auswahl des Essens ist nicht mehr so der Brüller wie es mal war Zudem war vieles vergriffen und wurde erst viel später nachgefüllt Leider werden wir nicht mehr wiederkommen

Mittagsbuffet inkl. Getränke für 14,90€ Montags bis Samstag vom Allerfeinsten. Beste Qualität.

lecker lecker 😋 Personal alle sehr nett
