    Okay for its price and food choices. ✅ - Just Steak A Minute: carving/sizzling section— roast beef and lamb are the best!!! Gravy was tasty too! - Seafood cajun - Baked oysters - Beef Rendang - Chicharon Bulaklak - Juice section: watermelon and pineapple carrot were refreshing - Puto bumbong - Cozy ambience - Quick in clearing the tables - Friendly, efficient, and accommodating staff ❌ - 好吃 section was not 好吃 (dimsums were not good) - Korean section: we didn’t like the chicken and japchae - Japanese section: so stingy for tempura - Lost & Pound section: burgers, quesadillas, and shawarma were already cold - Italian section: few varieties - Nord’s Coffee Bar: waited so long for a cup of cappuccino - Cakes were 😶

    Nice to be back! Masarap pa din and they still have a lot of food choices. Sulit na sulit pa din naman for its price most especially if you'll avail the birthday promo. Lol!

    The Alley is probably the best interpretation of a buffet that the Vikings Group offer. The themed stalls make it feel like you're in a food park with all these different chefs with their own specialties. The food is great and service is good. At a price point below a thousand pesos, you're surely going to get the most out of your money here.

    I don't eat much but what I got were the fancy food... mostly I got the bawal. There was much food when we were about to leave. There were very long lines to those stalls of food that I wanted to eat, Most of the servers were okay, though.

    Nice concept buffet. I must say it was a great experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the staff are friendly and approachable especially to the guy that assist us where we sit. I requested to transfer to other sit and in a snap he did. For the food, theres a lot of selection and the dessert spread was simply delightful. Overall, you will enjoy your 1137 php casual buffet here in Cloverleaf.

    Very nice place. Different setting from other buffets but still have lots of dishes to choose from . Delicious seafood chowder, tempura, bagnet, creamy pesto penne ,baked oysters and many more ! And end it with a hot green tea, wonderful! The ambiance is relaxing and good for families and date with love ones or just be with friends. Service the best! Thanks for the assistance of Angel, Jerome,Jonathan and Timothy you really delight your customers!

    First time here and unfortunately, I don't like the food choices. Refill is super slow. There are stations that are not manned like the pasta and pizza station. I never get to taste their pizza and pasta. Sad naman. There are buffet restaurants that are a lot better than this one for the same price. However, the waiter who takes away the plates is very efficient. He doesn't allow the plates to pile up, which is very good. - 2 thumbs up!!

    Food is ok, various dishes to choose from. The guy service crew of the beverage is not up to the job, we believe he hate his job one guy is asking for a lemon and did not respond courteously to the guy. Most of the crew are just talking to each other while one of my elderly colleague was not assisted in the korean dishes yet ignored to be exact while asking for info about the dishes. Only 40% of the crew are up to the task.

    Concept was very good-food park buffet. Anyone for fishball and kikiam? They even have bibingka and puto bungbong. You just have to be careful when walking from one station to another. It gets too crowded at times. Food transition is fast. You don’t have to wait long for a particular item to be refilled. One downside though, the waiters are not that accomodating-they were not even smiling when you request for something. By the way, my family and I were the ones personally putting our used plates aside-so as not to fill up our table.

    I love the food choices. It's a street type food hall from vikings and they have food choices from menus of Singapore, Philippines, USA, and Japan. I love the fish and chips and also the fried chicken. They have a coffee shop inside too called Nords which is good. for the Filipino food, the crispy kare kare is a must try. This is a good alternative to other buffet places.

    Located within Ayala Malls Cloverleaf, there is parking. The food selection is OK and they do refill at a decent pace. There’s just the nachos corner where there never seems to be something in it and when I tried asking the person behind counter about cheese quesadilla, he told me he’s still cooking it and that’s that. I asked if he could make one for me and I will come back for it but he pretended to not hear me. I wasn’t in the mood to be snappish so I just let it be. They’ve got a lot sweets and the cake station is awesome. My youngest child also liked the candy station and we loved the Wheat Grass juice. I like that that have iced coffee as well. Also, the spacing inside can be crowded like tables are too close to each other and space to walk is very narrow. I guess it’s good to go there at less busier times of the day but dinner - it gets crowded. They do have their own bathrooms and it’s says they sanitize every 30 minutes. I’m not so sure about that because when I went there, the trash bins are overflowing with tissue. I suppose throwing out the trash is different from sanitizing but what is the point when trash bins are overflowing with tissue? I like their staff though, I’m the sense that the bus boys are great in collecting emptied plates and glasses to free space on your table. They are also helpful in as far as showing you where to find utensils, where the beverage station is, etc. Tip: download eatigo. When the stars align and you just happen to want to try out a restaurant and they’re on eatigo - you can get an awesome discount!

    They offer a wide variety of dishes including Filipino, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and American cuisine. There is also a sushi bar, a salad bar, a cocktail bar and a dessert bar. The food is of excellent quality. The dishes are fresh, creative and beautifully presented. We went on a Sunday and as expected it was jam packed. The staffs are attentive and professional. Overall, I had an amazing experience at The Alley. The food was truly delicious, the selection was impressive and the atmosphere was good. I would highly recommend this buffet to anyone looking for a special dining experience. Reasonable for 1,088 per person.

    Decided to celebrate my birthday here since we’ve never been to a luxury buffet before plus they have a birthday promo. Booked a reversion via text message for dinner. When we came in there wasn’t too many people. Only section with a queue was the steak so that’s what I went for first. The steak was not served on sizzling plate as we’ve seen on videos online, instead sa plate na lang sya ilalagay. I got the baka steak and to be honest it was not worth raving about. It wasn’t that tender plus it tasted bland even with the sauce, I think kulang sya sa salt. After 1 serving hindi na ako kumaha ulit. I enjoyed their pizza and pesto pasta which was good. Sa Italian section I think they only serve one kind of pizza at a time kasi nung bumalik ako ibang pizza na yung sinerve nila tho they will replenish the pasta. I got the lechon kawali tho it was mostly fat with little meat on it but it was hot and crispy. Cocktail is good. I really enjoyed their coffee here. It was good. Much better than SB. My mother got their salmon sashimi and said they were not of good quality so I guess try it on your own. Masarap din yung puto bumbong. Place is quite small and food choices are not overwhelming. I suggest you sit near the food section para less walking. What we didn’t like is the ambiance, found it a little too dark. Overall maraming masarap na food, especially mga lutong ulam. Kung dito ka magce-celebrate ng birthday sulit na. Unlimited food at wala pang huhugasan 😁

    Jomel did a great job of entertaining my grandma's bday song. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. However, the refill of the food was a bit slow compared to Niu and Alley Katipunan. Still a great experience nonetheless

  • 2/5 ken l. 10 months ago on Google
    SAVE YOURSELF FROM THIS HORRENDOUS BUFFET ITS NOT WORTH IT. The food spread was bad. The quality of every food in the stations was really disappointing. The beef steak was horrible no quality whatsoever it's hard to chew and their gravy sauce was bland. The salmon sashimi was cold. The tempura was very small 😂. This establishment is a joke understaffed kitchen personel. You will be more stressed eating with this kind of environment. Really horrible experience. Save your 1000pesos and eat elsewhere

  • 3/5 Meester D. 1 year ago on Google
    The Alley by Vikings. I don’t know what to say to this place, but my experience was just so so, not the typical place you would say you really had a great time though there were a lot of selection for food but seems like they could still get better with their menu and as well as the services. Some staff though are accommodating; however, overall experience, I’d still give just 3 stars for now. Maybe Id get a better experience next time.

  • 5/5 Dolly L. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Hermie Orleans B. 1 year ago on Google
    Always courteous staff ❤️ There was quite a queue for the dinner batch during our visit. Thermometer and alcohol dispenser were available and placed at the entrance, and customers were asked to utilize both before being allowed entry. As always, there were plenty of delicious selections to choose from. All in all, a great time!

    We had a wonderful family dinner last september 14, 2019. We were 19 and everybody enjoyed the different choices of food. I love their vegetable salad. The veggies are fresh and choices of dressings are very enjoyable. The 3 birthday celebrants were free and children have discounts. Level parking is a plus. Surely we will comeback.

  • 5/5 Si Yuki I. 4 years ago on Google
    The Alley by Vikings is a Foodpark-inspired buffet restaurant which is by reservation basis. You csn try your chances by walking-in however it depends if there will ve vacant tables. They have a lot of franchises inside which has been gathered into one place for variety. Meaning, they're not solely owned by the Vikings. They have streetfoods inside as oppossed to the traditional Vikings or Niu by Vikings menu but still a lot of choices. Rates are more pricey for weekends.

  • 4/5 stabme j. 4 years ago on Google
    The ambiance is excellent. I enjoyed the first visit, but it gets old fast. I think the stalls should also change their menu so that it would be a different experience every time.

  • 4/5 Arvin Chester A. 4 years ago on Google
    Maybe one of the best Buffets by Vikings. I haven't been to the U.P Town Center Branch, but friends say this branch in Cloverleaf is more spacious and has faster service in terms of cooking time. Italian, Japanese, Chinese, American and of course Pinoy dishes are available! There are fishballs, oysters and balut too! Lots of dessert options!

    Carl and Ate Nancy were both accommodating and friendly, adding to the overall pleasant experience that we had for my dad's birthday. We enjoyed the food, especially our favorites - salmon sashimi, cakes, pizza and more. Very good experience.
