Utterly
disappointing!
We
decided
to
try
the
buffet
lunch
based
on
rave
reviews
and
left
the
restaurant
utterly
disappointed.
First,
CLEANLINESS
-
when
we
arrived
at
13:30,
it
was
not
busy,
there
were
3
occupied
tables,
AND
many
dirty
tables
that
were
not
cleared.
There
was
only
1
female
staff
(maybe
boss?)
behind
the
counter,
and
a
robot
cleaner
was
seen
moving
around,
but
did
nothing.
The
only
clean
and
set
table
was
right
next
to
the
toilet.
Second,
FOOD
-
I
suspect
the
buffet
food
were
NOT
FRESH
and
were
scraps
of
food
from
the
kitchen
maybe
from
other
dishes.
I
HAD
A
STOMACHACHE
after
visiting
Vegetasia,
luckily
it
wasn't
serious
and
it
cleared
up
after
a
few
hours
of
discomfort.
The
food
at
the
buffet
were
not
extremely
warm
and
the
refill
was
very
slow.
The
fried
rice
tray
was
perpetually
empty.
There
were
Vietnamese
fresh
rolls,
sushi
and
fruits
and
they
actually
DEEP
FRY
the
fresh
rolls,
sushi
and
fruits
to
create
the
impression
of
a
wider
variety.
In
fact,
they
are
the
same
food.
The
deep-fried
samosa
(we
found
only
one
-
felt
like
a
food
scrap)
was
super
hard
and
would
break
your
teeth.
There's
nothing
special
about
the
sweet
and
sour
Melazzani
which
reviews
raved
about
-
standard
sweet
and
sour
dish
taste
-
a
bit
on
the
sweet
side
actually.
A
big
group
came
after
and
all
the
fortune
cookies
were
snatched
up
-
again,
no
refill.
Overall
taste
is
mediocre,
what
you
would
find
at
standard
cheap
restaurants.
There
were
two
soup
pots
and
no
space
to
put
the
hot
lid
-
very
awkward!
Do
they
expect
customers
to
carry
the
hot
lid
while
taking
the
soup?
The
best
so
far
is
the
peanut
sauce
for
the
fresh
rolls.
Third,
SERVICE
-
The
sole
female
staff
(or
boss?)
was
welcoming
at
first.
She
was
usually
behind
the
counter
and
did
not
clear
and
clean
the
tables.
We
did
not
order
drinks,
and
no
water
was
served
to
us
(although
it
was
served
to
the
bigger
table).
Everything
was
self
service
and
there
was
little
interaction
with
her.
Overall,
the
service
was
ok.
Until...
she
tried
to
chase
us
out
by
bringing
us
the
bill
early
(fair
point,
as
we
understood
that
the
buffet
stops
at
15:00).
It
was
raining
heavily
at
that
time,
but
she
chased
us
out
anyway
with
a
"Sorry,
we
are
closed".
SERVICE
TIPS
-
I
wasn't
not
sure
if
the
quality
of
food,
cleanliness
and
staff
service
would
deserve
a
tip,
but
when
she
brought
us
the
bill,
she
was
hovering
for
a
Trinkgeld
(tips)
for
a
few
seconds,
as
if
it
was
her
God-given
right
to
receive
a
tip
(for
the
non-existent
service
she
provided).
I
did
not
leave
a
tip
as
I
felt
that
the
poor
quality
of
food
and
level
of
service
and
cleanliness
do
not
deserve
one.
The
restaurant
would
have
to
be
more
motivated
to
improve
on
all
those
aspects
BEFORE
they
should
expect
a
tip.
Clearly,
she
was
disappointed.
And
probably
why
she
chased
us
out,
not
once,
but
twice.
PRICE
-
Certainly
expensive
for
the
quality
and
variety
of
food.
ALL
IN
ALL,
I
don't
think
this
place
Vegetasia
is
worth
visiting,
and
I
CERTAINLY
WOULD
NOT
RECOMMEND
IT
TO
ANYONE.
There
are
much
better
buffet
places
with
more
variety
of
food,
faster
refills,
fresher
food,
cleaner
premises,
and
much
better
service.
And
it
is
a
vegetarian
buffet
for
16
euros
for
lunch
in
a
location
that
is
not
central
(25
euros
for
dinner
-
definitely
NOT
WORTH
IT).
You
can
get
a
meat
buffet
for
15
euros
for
lunch
in
a
central
location,
and
not
feeling
disappointed
by
the
quality
of
food,
being
pressured
to
leave
a
tip,
or
the
worst,
experiencing
a
stomachache
after
the
visit!
