Oriental Gourmet Dortmund in Dortmund

Everything is just right here. Friendly, tasty and cheap 😋

Price-performance unbeatable!!!! For 16 euros you can get drinks and food with a large selection including good taste. Very rich with duck, chicken and beef. Only beer and coffee costs extra and is extremely cheap at €1.60

Food is empty, if you bring it up and ask for a refill you will be looked at stupidly and looked at stupidly. Sauces were all empty, instead of checking first to see if anything needed to be refilled. Small plastic glasses go back every time after a sip to refill drinks. The €25 would have made more sense in the casino opposite.

Very cozy and tasty! Prices are good!

Very friendly service, clean atmosphere, delicious food...

The food is tasty, the service is good. What more could you want?

After the quality had declined in recent years, we were pleased to see that it has improved significantly again. The staff was also very friendly, quick and helpful. Keep it up!

Highly recommended for a cost-effective way to enjoy Asian cuisine. Since you do quite a lot yourself (typical buffet), I can't say much about the service, nice little gimmick, a small robot takes over some of the service tasks. Price-performance ratio is reasonable.

On some days I recommend making a table reservation, e.g. Valentine's Day. Apart from that, very tasty and healthy💪

We ate there again with several people. The offer is very extensive. The quality of the food is very good. If you can't find enough to eat here, you should stay at home and cook something for yourself. The service is also good. So we can recommend this restaurant with a clear conscience. Would love to come back.

Soup, duck, pasta, all cold, I guess they save on electricity, sweet and sour sauce, only color, density, completely tasteless

Very good and tidy, clean, large selection of dishes, buffet is great, including drinks. The restaurant has a room for children and smokers are also welcome, the smoking room is particularly comfortable in bad weather. Only to be recommended👍👍👍

Zero stars! The buffet was constantly empty! Very noisy due to certain guests and their children were running around as if it were a game world! The temporary worker worked with a hoddie with the hood on his head and this made a very bad impression! The food was horrible! The children touched the food from the buffet and threw it back in! And no employee said anything about it! NEVER AGAIN

I would nevereeeee again on Valentine's Day or anytime. Something like today left me speechless

The buffet on a Sunday evening was good in terms of taste, as was the selection. It was varied and diverse. Unfortunately, the soft ice cream machine was broken and the dessert selection was also very early. The selection of soft drinks is quite limited. The cappuccino, as well as the latte macchiatto, tasted very good (extra cost).

Visited the restaurant on Tuesday afternoon. Price €16. The choice is small, but everyone will find something to their liking. Drinks included except alcohol. The service is excellent, the dishes are clean, the food is fresh. I recommend it. .

The ambience isn't really my thing, but the all-inclusive buffet was constantly replenished and was delicious. The service was friendly, used and plates were cleared quickly.

Not recommended. Food cold, rooms uncomfortable.

I had lunch there with my husband today. The selection at the buffet is very small. You couldn't have anything grilled because the grill was closed. There was only 1 row where there was warm food in the front and back and the row in front and behind was the dessert. We were also very disappointed with the dessert, so little choice and only minimally appealing :( a shame :( Some of the warm food was completely fried and had little to no taste and some was even cold. The soft drinks were completely sweetened and sometimes tasted completely artificial :( The service was only concerned about money and not particularly friendly :( We therefore cannot recommend this restaurant :( it's a shame :((

Went here today to test it out. The service was friendly. I didn't find it particularly tasty here. It was just average. The selection was also pretty small. The food was always warm and refilled quickly. The price of 16 euros for the lunch buffet including soft drinks was OK. But everyone should decide for themselves, this is all my personal opinion.

I don't know how you can slack off like that. Just bad and run down. Food lukewarm and everything very unkempt. Never again!

Went there at 7pm on Christmas Day and there was almost nothing left. But they are open until 10 p.m. Some of the food was only lukewarm. Ambiance wasn't nice at all. Like a large warehouse where tables and chairs were placed. Not a bit of decoration that might have made it a little more comfortable. For me it was the first and the last time

Unfortunately the food was only lukewarm and there was a piece of plastic in two of the sushi. An apology was made for the plastic but they could have offered a small compensation for it. Unfortunately you cannot pay with visa. Positive: The used plates were always quickly cleared from the table and if something at the buffet was empty it was refilled straight away.

Very nice restaurant. Are very happy there. Always fresh and everyone is very nice. 😊

Amazing place, many options, cold , hot and raw they cook it for you . Drinks are included in the price . 100% recommend

Very tasty there and the buffet was great.

Unfortunately, there is far too little choice, even for €15 at lunchtime on Fridays. Well, boring. It takes far too long for the food to be refilled. There is far too little sweetness for dessert. The drinks, cola, etc. are not original. There is enough parking space. The waiter is nice

On December 25th, 2024 we visited the Oriental Gourmet in Dortmund. The photos on their Facebook page looked very good. So this time we wanted to eat there for Christmas. The first impression was quite good, but the buffet was quite small, it looked bigger in the photos. The sushi buffet is mini small. A seat at our table was still dirty, the clothespins were stuck and the sign was full of grease stains. The "cook" at the grill pushed the meat and fish from the guests' plates onto the grill without gloves. He basically fried my chicken to death. Despite the warning, nothing had changed. The food at the hot counter was only warm to the maximum. The fruit was a disaster. The ice cream scoops at the ice cream counter were in a container without water. So we were really disappointed with this restaurant. We've been to many Mongolian restaurants, but we can't recommend this place.

Every meal is completely cold despite the high number of visitors. Freshly fried things were completely over salted and burnt. The store has slowed down a lot, unfortunately no recommendation!!

Lunch buffet is recommended. Price performance is right.

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

Unfortunately we were very disappointed.

Edit: 12/2/24 Were there again today after a long time. Unfortunately it was probably the last time. Almost all of the food was cold. Unfortunately, because there wasn't much going on, the food sat for a long time.

We like to come here Tastes delicious 😋

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 something 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 😔

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

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!

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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
