    The Buf chose to schedule only one staffer on a day when we booked a party of 16 for dinner (booking made 2 months in advance). Manager was rude and wanted to explain “how food service works” to me. They refused to take any starter orders until all drinks were served.This took almost 30 mins. They then said they would only serve any starters we wanted with our mains because they decided to close the kitchen at 8. We arrived at 7:05 and first tried to order food at 7:10. Save yourself the headache and go to the Chinese place across the street. We did; and enjoyed the hell out of it.

    Food was good, service was good. Only issue was they were understaffed and we.did a bit more waiting about for drinks. We ended up not getting a last round as we were finished and ready to go by the time the staff got to us. Nobody was sitting around they were all just too busy worling hard to deal with our request
