The East in Mannheim

Good Asian all-u-can-eat buffet, also with fresh ingredients that are cooked on site. The selection is good and there is something for everyone.

Very nice staff, nice place, good food. I recommend this place, very much

The open buffet restaurant is very nice, clean and delicious, I liked it, thank you, the owner is very attentive, thank you

Food according to the menu wasn't that tasty.

Unfortunately, the buffet on Sunday is twice as expensive as during the week.

very good food. But the staff is not at all friendly, very busy with their work, at least they convey this atmosphere to the customers.

Cold food, not fresh, no choice at all, worst restaurant

Good food in a central location. Saturday buffet recommended.

The townhouse's surroundings aren't exactly the most beautiful, but the inside is very nicely designed. There are enough places available and the conditions are friendly and attentive. I think the selection of food was very good. From sushi, soups and a colorful mix of “starters” to a good selection of different main courses and a huge selection of ingredients for the grill, right up to a dessert buffet. Everything is included and therefore value for money is ok for me. The only negative point is that the dessert buffet could use a little more love.

Sehr unfreundlich Essen mangelhaft nicht aufgefüllt Toiletten waren so schmutzig und es hat sehr schlimm gerochen Geschäftsführer kam als mein Sohn ein langes Haar im Essen bemerkt hatte und war dann noch patzig nie wieder würde ich werde ich dahin gehen werde es auch nicht weiterempfehlen schade für das viele Geld das wird dort ausgegeben haben

hair in food The staff looked at you evilly the whole time, unless someone was nice Had to puke afterwards 👎👎

We came to the buffet at lunchtime (weekend) and almost 50% of the dishes were served cold on the buffet. We immediately mentioned this to the service, they said it was "normal" that the food would be cold within 5 minutes. An absolute “NoGo” for us! Many of the plates were greasy and/or dirty with food leftovers from the previous guest which were not cleaned, also a “no go”! With the bill I ask whether I should actually pay for the entire buffet now that we have hardly eaten anything? Statement from service, yes. Absolutely no understanding or accommodating. Never again!

My family and I were two people with my 5-year-old daughter The treatment of most employees is bad And food that contains a lot of oils Bad experience and I do not recommend it Another thing is that the ice cream contained alcohol and my daughter ate it. When I asked them that it contained alcohol, he said yes, a little, and there is no warning sign that it contains alcohol. Although the price is specified for an adult of 24 years Plus two cola drinks 8.40 The total supposed to be deducted is 56.40 70 were cut off

Horrible food tastes like nothing! NEVER AGAIN!

It was very tasty and the advice was also very good.. just mention your own flavor and you mix something nice together :)

I am positively surprised nice buffet. Delicious food. Everything is fresh, even I only eat sushi 🍣 from specific places, but here it was very tasty. For the price, top performance and good food. Staff very friendly and always happy to help

I came today because of TooGoodToGo. The waiter/employee treated me very badly, unfriendly. Even though I'm of East Asian descent myself, he yells at me (or maybe it's typical of him). Food was okay, but options were very limited...

Very friendly staff ☺️. The shop is very clean, the buffet is very tasty and more than sufficient. Would love to come back here 🤩

If you like the taste, it tastes good.

I love the buffet, very appealing and delicious..especially in the evening, the fish selection

By far the worst Asian guy I've been to

I was invited there and had a very nice - and delicious - evening. I can't understand all the negative reviews. I ate really well and the service was friendly & perfect.

The staff is friendly, but unfortunately the food was far too dry. Nothing really tasted good, except for dessert – the ice cream was okay, but ice cream almost always tastes good. Overall I wouldn't recommend it, it was an unnecessary expenditure of money.

A decent restaurant with a buffet and freshly prepared own creations (Mongolian buffet) and the service is always friendly and attentive. We like to eat there.

Absolute impudence. A sea of ​​convenience products that aren't even well bought. Breaded shrimp whose interior is reminiscent of the consistency of construction foam. The food in the warming containers was rather lukewarm. And folks, when you serve chicken liver, you should know that it's not a dish that can be kept warm for a long time. That didn't work at all. Chewy and dry. Everything seems very, very inferior and the staff is extremely demotivated. There is a larger investor behind this who is certainly making a lot of noise. 60 euros for 2!!! It is usury for people if the value of the goods/use is in the single-digit euro amount. Never ever again.

Last Friday I was at the East with a friend for the all you can eat buffet because we were on a short trip to Mannheim. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was very tasty. I particularly liked the sushi. There was a good selection of dishes. If we come to Mannheim again, we would love to come back for dinner.

We ate as a group. I didn't opt ​​for the buffet and ordered something from the menu. The food came quickly. As I took a few spoonfuls I saw a long black hair in the food. I immediately lost my appetite. There was never an apology. Unfortunately, the toilets were not hygienic either. I can't recommend it.

Quite a nice restaurant. Unfortunately, for a buffet, it was smaller than usual and the price was relatively high. The staff was friendly. The "bouncer" at the entrance was a bit strange...

Normal dishes that can be ordered taste really good and I can recommend them. But the all you can eat offer is terrible, doesn't taste good. The sauces just taste like salt.

Everything was delicious. Until we paid and tipped ... then the waiter tipped himself 1€ more 😂

Never again without words buffet just bad!

Polite, friendly service. Nice airy atmosphere. Nice statues. You can sit here for hours and think or even write poetry..... There is a lucky fountain that doesn't run water today, August 20, 24. Maybe other times there will be water, who knows. Or maybe happiness runs without water and we don't notice it! Lucky Chinese turtles and lucky fish... Marché used to be here and I really want Marché. My father and I were here several times back then. That was his place. Paradeplatz and Marché. Then Marché was closed. Now. Since I've been living in Mannheim again since the summer of 2021, I've seen myself walking past here. Today I thought, okay, I'll sit here and remember what was, how it was, how it felt and how it feels to be here now. Thank you for the good service and friendliness.

I ordered mapo tofu from here, which was actually inedible. It tasted absolutely bad. The duck was slightly better but I have never had drier meat. Cannot recommend this place for anyone interested in delicious food, way too many corners cut.

For an all you can eat restaurant the food was very tasty. Everything at the buffet was nicely served and plentiful. Sushi was included. Freshly prepared food on the grill is recommended. Service very attentive. The restaurant was pleasantly cooled down. Would come again.

Staff very unfriendly and the food is no longer what it used to be, the fruit looks like it comes from a can

I really like The East. It is very affordable for the selection and quality of the food. There is the typical "Chinese" buffet food, but also steamed gyozas, Korean kimchi and a selection of sushi. The Mongolian grill, where you can put together your own selection of fish, meat and vegetables, also offers a wide selection. Including large shrimps and rare species of fish. I was there several times for lunch and dinner when I lived in the neighboring town. The lunch buffet is cheaper than in the evening, but there is also a smaller selection, especially of sushi (then there are maki and California rolls and the like). In the evening it costs around €20, but for that you get a wide selection of different nigiri. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is elegant. In general, the atmosphere is more elegant and romantic in the evening than at lunchtime, but that's not really a problem. Reservations are generally not necessary as there is a lot of seating, unless you come with a large group of people. There is also a grand piano in the entrance area that I have played several times.

Yummy Yummy in my tummy ✔👌🏽 Only four stars there: Vegans don't get that much choice for their buffet/lunch package...🤣😂

Very tasty, good portions (almost a bit too much), and really friendly and attentive people working there. Thank you for the very pleasant stay :)

Very very tasty buffet. A variety of different dishes, drinks and side dishes. The service is surprisingly friendly and accommodating. The location is also fine. For vegetables etc. there is a special roast kitchen. Highly recommended!

Not many food choices too expensive

It is a good Buffet place. They have a lot of variety in sea food, although they could also increase the variety of food other than sea food. Dessert and drinks are good. Good to visit if you have a good appetite.

I had dinner at this restaurant with a friend. We ordered a drink and a buffet. We had to wait a long time at the beginning of our visit, and the employee was downright horrified when I wanted to pay straight away because we were in a hurry. A language barrier made communication even more difficult; Despite repeating it several times, our request was not understood. The employee spoke to us several times during our stay in an unpleasant tone and asked if my friend wanted to eat something. To make matters worse, our plates were snatched right from under our noses without asking and the staff constantly walked around us, creating a very tense atmosphere. People stared at your hands while you ate, which made the experience even more unpleasant.

So disgusting me and my girlfriend threw up afterwards and had stomach bugs the squid was sour eif disgusting

This was by far the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. As soon as we entered the restaurant we were greeted with a disapproving look by the rude waitress. Instead of giving us a warm welcome, it seemed like we were a burden. We were constantly watched throughout our stay, which was incredibly uncomfortable. We felt like we were under constant surveillance, like we weren't trusted. What was particularly annoying was that we were literally followed at the buffet. You could hardly choose your meal in peace without an employee looking at your fingers. The meal itself was a disappointment. For the high prices we expected at least acceptable quality, but instead the food was mediocre at best. Many dishes were bland, some even cold and not very appetizing. The price-performance ratio is absolutely not given here. In summary: A visit to this restaurant is a waste of time and money. The rude service, the constant observation and the bad food make this restaurant absolutely not recommended. I will definitely never come back and advise everyone to give this restaurant a wide berth.

I've always had the buffet so far. Very tasty and varied. I can only recommend.

Today I was there with my wife and decided on the buffet. The staff wasn't nice. The food was too dry or undercooked. Too small a selection of dishes. The only thing that could be eaten and at least tasted somewhat tasty was the side dish. My wife and I do not recommend this restaurant.

Clean, spacious, cozy, friendly service staff and a nice view from the 1st floor of the Paradeplatz if you sit outside in summer. Good selection at the buffet. I even eat sushi here! There are restaurants with even more choice but here the quality is good, which is important to me. I really enjoy coming here.

I recommend the "dinner" buffet, it was a great experience: diversity of dishes, staff at your service, pleasant establishment and well located in the center of Mannheim.

You can just come in here without a reservation. Lunch buffet from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and dinner buffet from 5:30 p.m. to 10/11 p.m. Lots of choice, including everything that goes into the buffet. Buffet = all you can eat. We were really happy here, everything tasted good, including the homemade drinks. I/we are now regular customers here. Employees always greet you in a friendly manner and you have a seat of your choice. Simply to recommend.

We had reserved 2 large tables (communion). The service was very attentive, friendly and quick. The buffet was extensive, always well filled and delicious 😋

The food is good so far, but the quality suffers. E.g. The tiramisu is just a cream biscuit mixture that just looks good.

Was just there and politely asked for a pen to write a phone note to the counter. I was immediately sent to the headquarters of the public transport system with an ugly female 😑 🇨🇳 grimace pointing my finger at me. "You don't eat anything, you ask for a pen, go out there🙈🙉 Impossible behavior. I would never eat there.!!!

Lukewarm buffet. Very high in glutamate and fatty. Mass processing

Visited thrice already Dinner Buffet/Abendsbuffet. Difficult for Pure vegetarian, easy choice for eggetarians, huge advantage for non-vegetarians and sea food lovers. Customized live grill is possible.

We were here before and back then it was totally ok. Whatever has happened since then, today's meal (April 17, 2024, buffet) was really bad. (First of all: the staff was OK) The fried food tasted of nothing except salt with consistency, spring rolls were tasteless and limp, the fried seafood was over salted, sweet and sour just wasn't sweet and sour. I couldn't eat it, but I'm not picky. The sushi was edible (but still didn't taste better than Rewe supermarket sushi), although the tempura wasn't really cooked through. Means: Salmonella danger. The prawn chips at the end were the highlight of it all. 😅 We paid 20€, left a bunch of leftover food (and for me that's the real reason why I'm writing here. I hate leaving leftover food)... If you want Chinese, you'd better go to "Kung Fu" on Fressgasse. There it's half the price and 100x tastier.

Food very good. Price for buffet 24.90 euros is okay. Good service. Highly recommended.

Was there with my son yesterday. Were welcomed in a friendly manner and that was it with politeness. 1. Prices online do not match local prices. 2. Only food without a drink currently costs an additional 1 euro, hurry up ;) 3. There is a service, whether it is polite and friendly and does what it is supposed to do is something else. You can't have everything there. Lunch buffet for adults 16.95 euros + drink. Without a drink there is a 1 euro surcharge (I didn't see it). I then spontaneously gave up my food and watched my son (€11.95). What's wrong with these people that you should pay for a service you didn't use?! I'm surprised that the toilets were still free to use as a guest, when you start taking money for them and sit a person in front of them with a bowl?! People eat somewhere else, preferably in e.g. Mörlenbach... google will be happy to advise you. The East Mannheim...You made my day ;)

Good Asian buffet, the place is very nice and stylish inside. Unfortunately, like the entire area around Paradeplatz, the outdoor area is rather dingy and not very inviting.

You can eat well. The selection isn't that big. It was tasty.

Well, we haven't been here...eating in a long time. Unfortunately, the food in the containers is not very hot. The duck was either overcooked or undercooked. I don't have to go there again.

Excellent experience, free food for €23 on Sundays, it is worth it, because you can eat everything and as much as you want. Salmon Squid Seafood Rabas Desserts etc. Quality price guaranteed.

Delicious, fresh, nice staff, very clean, nice ambience, the best all you can eat in Mannheim, I can only recommend 10/10!!!

expensive, hardly any choice if you're not into squid or frogs. just under €3 for 0.2L of still water

Lunch buffet... rich... friendly service

Very good! What is striking is the really friendly service. The buffet is well stocked, especially the grill area has everything you like about seafood. And the homemade iced teas are delicious. The price for the weekend evening buffet is quite high, so go hungry!

AMBIENCE: Okay - but plastic and dried plants. The atmosphere is quite nice. The dimmed lights and dark furniture look nice... if it weren't for the plastic lamps and a dried plant on each table. They are not that exciting and ruin the beautiful ambience. FOOD: Good when freshly fried; The rest, well. The food is good when you have fresh ingredients fried. The finished dishes are sometimes very dry in the display. SERVICE: Disaster! The service is the (negative) blast. I have never experienced anything like it. Part 1: On the day of my visit, I had drunk a lot during the day and didn't want to drink anything at dinner, just enjoy the food. The waitress then said that they would charge me extra if I didn't drink anything. When I asked why you had to pay for something that you didn't use or didn't order, the waitress became very unfriendly, turned around and left. I ate and actually ended up being charged extra for something I neither ordered nor received. An absolute NO GO! Part 2: At the next table I noticed that someone didn't like something on the plate and had left it on the plate. The service then complained to him that he should either finish it or not get it from the buffet! It probably doesn't occur to this waitress that something doesn't taste good and is therefore left on the plate. How can you complain to a paying customer in a restaurant? Incomprehensible! CONCLUSION: If you want to feel good, go somewhere else. Even if the freshly fried food is good, this service ruins the entire experience of visiting a restaurant. As a paying customer, you can't go home feeling annoyed. Repetition factor 0! ... there are other restaurants where you feel more comfortable.

Large buffet with a good selection at a reasonable price

We were there for dinner and chose the buffet. The food was very tasty and nice and warm. It was always refilled quickly. I would have liked a little more variety when it came to dessert and especially ice cream flavors. The staff are very friendly and attentive. There is a changing area for babies that could be a little cleaner and nicer.

I like it here. Tasty food. Polite staff. Friendly atmosphere. Convenient location. A very spacious room, which is well zoned. Thanks for the hospitality!

Food was good and a large selection. The service was a bit stressed, but still always friendly.

I highly recommend this Buffet place in Mannheim!

We've been to The East again today and it's simply fantastic! A delicious & fresh meal with a huge selection from the buffet! Here is something for everyone! For vegetarians, vegans and allergy sufferers! The price-performance ratio is also right. Reservations are an advantage on weekends! We will be back definitely! Keep it up!

Very tasty classic Asian buffet. The food is always fresh and very tasty. Reasonable prices, just completely satisfied

Food didn't really taste good. Were complained loudly about eating too much.

The food didn't really taste good, it was way too loud and definitely not a 25€ experience. I hung the clips that you put on the raw meat so that it is grilled on her ears while playing with my daughter and laughed with her. Suddenly my daughter was taken away and grilled. Not so nice.

War schon besser, ist aber noch OK.

Была здесь два раза в разный период. Еда неплохая, поэтому только за нее даю звезды. По поводу обслуживания, это конечно что-то. Эти два раза мне не повезло попасть на одного и того же работника, который обманул меня на деньги. Может другие работники добросовестные. Но мне приносила счет женщина, которая когда я была в первый раз, насчитала мне на 10€ больше (я была не одна), тогда я подумала «ну ничего, бывает, ошиблась..» Но когда точно такая же ситуация произошла через несколько месяцев во второй раз с той же сотрудницей, это уже не показалось ошибкой, а намеренным обманом! Я очень разочаровалась и больше сюда не прийду. Следите за своими сотрудниками, они у вас отобьют много гостей (((

Immer das gleiche, was sehr positiv gemeint ist

Schöne Location, freundlicher Service, gutes Essen, Preis okay. Durchgehend geöffnet.

Buffet à volonté classique (avec possibilité de grill) pour un prix raisonnable mais pas énormément de choix. Dommage que le serveur ait rajouté 3€ sur le TPE «sans faire exprès » en plus de l’addition au moment du paiement car le reste du personnel est agréable…

Sehr leckeres Essen, Auswahl Abends Größer in Bezug auf die Zutaten für den Grill. Durchschnittliches Ambiente aber Freundliche Bedienung. Alles in Allem Top und zu Empfehlen.

Ich gehe hier schon seit über 10 Jahren essen. Ich muss leider sagen die Qualität und der Geschmack/ Auswahl haben sich ins negative gewandelt. Die Ente ist die letzten 4 Besuche immer sehr trocken gewesen. Und die bereits fertigen Gerichte auch nicht immer gut gekocht, z.b. Leber zu lange gekocht = trocken. Das Sushi ist Standard, ist natürlich nicht vom Fachpersonal zubereitet.. Wenn man sich beim Grill die richtige soße auswählt kann man wenigstens hier was leckeres braten lassen (ich empfehle Knoblauch). Es gibt 2 Suppen, die mit Kokosmilch ist sehr lecker. Also alles in einem OK aber ich wünsche mir man gibt sich wieder mehr Mühe.

Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit essen zu empfehlen

Gutes Buffet in gemütlicher Atmosphäre

Großes leckeres Buffet! Freundliches Personal und faire Preise.

Sehr leckeres Buffet , nette Mitarbeiter.

Der Mitarbeiter an der Tür sprechen mit uns mit vollem Mund (mit essen). Ab 21:00h fühlen sie den buffet nicht mehr obwohl sie um 22:00h schließen.(wir haben um 21:20h nach Pommes gefragt sie haben uns ignoriert), Sushi schmeckt gar nicht, kann alles sein außer Sushi und zum Schluss 6,50€ für 750ml Wasser finde ich so viel für so ein Restaurant. Also nie wieder gehen und nicht zu empfehlen

'Sehr Gute Atmosfher und alles lecker Essen...

Great location in the middle of Mannheim centre. Super staff and atmosphere. Great and delicious food. Totally recommend ✌🏻

Wer gerne Fisch isst, kommt am "all you can eat Buffet" auf seine Kosten. Es wird nicht gegeizt mit Lachs, feinen Muscheln und frischem Gemüse, das man sich an der Grillstation frisch zubereiten lassen kann. Dazu jede Menge fertig gekochter Gerichte, reiche Auswahl an Fleisch, Gemüse, Frittiertem, auch Sushi, Suppen, Nachtisch und Eis. Guter, netter Service. Kann man auf jeden Fall machen.

Großes Lokal gutes Ambiente. Wir haben ein bisschen auf den Service warten müssen aber das Essen war heiß und lecker. Aber die Portionen sind einfach zu groß. Empfehlen würde ich das Restaurant trotzdem

Freundliches Personal und sauberes Buffet. Speisen wurden immer nachgefüllt und es sah sehr frisch aus. Minimaler Minuspunkt, die Toilette hat etwas nach Abfluss gemüffelt.

Wir waren gestern zum ersten Mal dort, große Auswahl an essen und es schmeckt. Mitarbeiter sehr nett :) Wir kommen sicher nochmal :)

Ein großes Restaurant im Zentrum der City. Es gab ein Buffet mit guter Auswahl und Grill. Das Essen war gut und das Buffet wird schnell aufgefüllt. Leider war das Servicepersonal an diesem Tag sehr schlecht gelaunt und zeitweise etwas mürrisch.

Wir gehen immer an unseren Geburtstagen dahin und freuen uns über die Sauberkeit, den freundlichen Service, die Auswahl der Gerichte und den Geschmack.

Ωραίο φαγητό, μεγάλες μερίδες και φιλικό προσωπικό

Sehr netter Service, man sitzt ruhig, Ambiente passt auch. Das Essen ist ok, felt aber etwas Rafinesse, meinem Geschmack nach zu mild, aber Auswahl ist genug vorhanden. Preislich gut

Freundliche Bedienung. Das Buffet ist quantitativ ok. Bei den Mengen darf man natürlich keine Gourmetqualität erwarten, Geschmack in Ordnung. Wir empfanden es als etwas laut. Wer Ruhe zum Essen erwartet, sollte nicht zu den Stosszeiten kommen. Preislich gerade noch akzeptabel. Wer viel Essen möchte, der ist hier richtig.

Wir sind immer wieder gerne Essen hier. Sehr freundliches und aufmerksames Personal. Das Buffet ist überragend und sehr lecker.

Leckeres Buffet und genug Auswahl
