    Ok here goes. Visited there 2times, and both times they let me done. Food was not great at all. I mean being a new-awesome hotel you expect better food. Food was presented nicely and its always crowded with people, mainly waiters and managers. So if you are planing a quiet, peaceful or a lovely dinner, this is not the place for you. Its noisy with people running for food and drinks. And the other thing is its sooo expensive 3990+ PP on weekends and this was last year. I mean i get the pricing and all but at least you expect the food to be nice. They do have a variety tho. Indian, Chinese Arabic so on and so forth. They get 3 stars because their desert range is pretty awesome. Love it. The staff is super friendly. But they look tried. Ill recommend you to go there and see whats going on but trust me its not a go-to-dinner place. There better places than Table-One

    Visited in the afternoon for their lunch buffet. Great ambience. Great spread. Reserving a table in advance is advisable. We visited on a weekday afternoon (around 12.30) and the place was almost full. There’s a set of tables with a view of the ocean, and some without. The buffet is priced at about LKR 2400 + taxes, which is quite reasonable. There’s both local and foreign cuisine to choose from. There are several live stations as well, where you can get the chefs to prepare dishes like pasta for your own taste. The staff was very friendly and attentive.

    Table one gave us a grand welcoming when we visited Sri Lanka after more than five years. The buffet style menu had a huge diversity, a dish from pretty much every corner of the world. We specifically found Sri Lankan style dishes to be more satisfying. The restaurant had a great wine menu as well! This restaurant truly echoes the vibes of diverse Sri Lankan food fusion. The staff was very polite and courteous. Our server did an amazing job keeping the company entertained and making sure everything was smooth. Absolutely loved our time there, and hoping to return soon!

    Firstly, we were overwhelmed by the hospitality of the staff. They were friendly, helpful and provided one of the greatest services I have ever experienced thus far. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant is elegant, with comfortable seating arrangement. The sea view tables provides a spectacular view of the Galleface area. Spread of the buffet is massive with a wide verity delicacies, all cooked to perfection. Undoubtedly, the best buffet experience!

    This probably the best Buffett spread in town. Food is really good tasty and spicy well prepared by professional staff. Buffet is well spread to cover Western, Chinees, Indian, Japanese and Sri Lankan. They have a really good spread of dessert in the buffet The restaurant is spacious and really good ambiance. You must make a reservation before you visit the restaurant. Their fresh juices are nice really good. There are plenty of food action stations which make lovely hot hot food for your satisfaction. Staff friendly and corporative.

    Restaurant ambience is fantastic. One of the best buffets in Colombo which serves Srilankan, Japanese, Indian and more. Sea food was also available plenty. The "Table one" restaurant has one of the most unique interiors. The spread in the dessert section in particular was lacking. One of the best from all hotels in Sri Lanka.

    Awesome food hands down. But please improve the quality of the service!! Whatever we asked for (water, menu, bill, etc) they never came unless you ask several times! At one point I had to go get them on my own. It may have been the busy day but I’d expect much better from 5 star hotel.

  • 3/5 Vasantha M. 5 years ago on Google
    Expected much more from a five star hotel restaurant. Food was mainly for a foreigner's taste even though there were many locals dining. Waited at the hopper stand for a while and the staff member didn't appear to take much notice until I actually asked for hoppers. I thought it was very obvious what I was waiting for. While he was making the hoppers he didn't show any interest in what he was doing. Poor customer service.

    Amazing, went there for dinner. Wide range of food from authentic Sri Lanka food, Chinese, indian, variety of meat options, desserts. And no need to say food is also good. Staff is friendly and supportive. 3600 per head (3900 in weekend)

  • 5/5 Anuthinan S. 5 years ago on Google • 86 reviews
    One of the best buffet place in colombo. They have variety of starters, main & desserts. Specially, i could find one of most tastiest lamb here. Staffs are very friendly and they will help to get your food properly.

  • 5/5 Keet Malin S. 5 years ago on Google • 47 reviews
    The food was delicious. The variety of food is very less compared to other buffets. They should consider to have more varieties. Calm and quiet place for business meetings.

  • 5/5 Niranga P. 5 years ago on Google • 29 reviews
    5 star buffet experience with a huge variety of food in Sri Lankan and Indian style, Chinese, continental, Sushi bar, BBQ corner, salad and soup unit, pasta counter and a huge variation of desserts. You'd get lost among big selection of food, but there is a dedicated person to give a head start about the buffet for you. Place can be quite busy so prior reservation recommended

    (Translated by Google) I went on the last day of Sri Lanka It is a price, but in Sri Lanka it will be higher There are many kinds of dishes, and clerks also do a good customer service so it's a nice place The price of the Japanese buffet is the same as the price (Original) スリランカ最終日に行ってみました お値段ですがスリランカては高い方になりますね 料理は沢山の種類があり、店員もよい接客をするので良いところですよ ただ値段は日本のバイキング代も変わらないですよ

  • 4/5 Mohanadarshan V. 5 years ago on Google
    We went for buffet twice within last 8 months; saw same varieties :) They do have Chinese, Indian, Sri Lankan and Grill stuff. Even though there are food from lot of cuisines varieties are very limited. I would recommend this place for deserts. They do have good desert but we missed gummy bears last time.

  • 3/5 Nesh �. 5 years ago on Google • 22 reviews
    Very polite and friendly staff.but the buffet menu needs a lots of improvement.poor choice of menu selection,it was all over the place.. hope the hotel management do a better job hiring an excellent chef according to the hotel standards. I tried a little bit of everything available, except for two, three items. i didn't like the taste of others especially the caramel pudding( I was confused what was it exactly ! ) . The hotel lobby has a gorgeous open space. but table one buffet area space hasn't been well utilized.

    Really nice

  • 4/5 Vinoli P. 4 years ago on Google
    Went there with my family for dinner and it was lovely. Only thing they need to improve is the cappuccino,the foam was over Done and full of bubbles. But the variety of food they had was just great. Some of the dishes lack a little bit of seasoning. Maybe because my tongue is way too sri lankan lol. Overall nice interior. Calming music and definitely a mood fixer. The staff was very professional and friendly also attentive. Had a great time. Would recommend :)

    This place is amazing!! Tried their lunch buffet 3000 nett per person. Absolutely loved it. Staff 10/10 Food 10/10

  • 5/5 Vindula J. 5 years ago on Google
    A great place to have a pleasant dinner. Staff was friendly and the restaurant view was great. I felt they lack the variety in the buffet, specially deserts, but the food was tasty and suits both local and foreign tastes. They ask you to finish things up before 11 pm as they close at 11 pm, which I found little different than other places in Colombo. But in overall, it’s a great experience and surely will visit again.

    Nice variety of food from sri Lanka to Indian chinese to Japanese to English. Good offer for the price of the buffet.

  • 5/5 Thisura M. 5 years ago on Google
    Went for lunch here on a weekday with some friends. The variety of the food available was astonishing. From western to Asian to Japanese to the desserts, and the quality was also very good. The price is also extremely worth it when compared to other buffets available around CMB.
