JRC Global Buffet Civic Centre Road, Southampton SO14 7SJ

"One of the longest serving buffet restaurants in Southampton, JRC Global offered not just Pan-Asian dishes but also dishes around the world like pizzas, paellas and burgers. I found my new favourite in chicken wings in cola that apparently is a Swiss cuisine. Payment is made on arrival. Drinks are all reasonably priced (£3.50 for all refillable soft drinks and and beers are between £4 to £6) and can be ordered anytime during your meal and paid separately at the bar inside the restaurant. Service charges are already included so there was no hike or surprise at the end of the meal. During the busy hours, the dining may have a 2 hours limit but as far as my experience concerned I am normally full after 90 mins!!"

"I have been here a few times now, and the food has got better each time j have been. The food is nice some of the food out is not as hot as some of other dishes that may be out, but they have never been cold to the touch when i have been. There is a lot of space ans tables, and the decor is a nice add detail at each different food. There is a wide variety of food and even fresh steak and fish at the front of jrc. The staff are really nice and there is someone always coming around to see how the food is and take any plates away, my favourite dish is the duck pancakes, I have tasted better but the duck is still nice and go's really fast."

"Fantastic experience trying lots if different foods. Some were amazing like the samosa and some of the currys Some food is a bit watery but what do you expect? Unlimited drinks is a winner Stay away from the burger and cheese products as its a bit fake. But somehow the awful tasting pizza is so bad that it's actually amazing. And if you don't leave room for all the desserts you are missing out massively"

"A buffet with a wonderful variety of international foods, easy to book, and spacious seating arrangements. The live cooking station is a favourite of my friend, having fresh food cooked immediately is fantastic! can be busy over weekends, but quiet on the weekdays. The free meal offer for a birthday person (with one paying adult accompanying) is a good deal :)"

"JRC Global Buffet We went here for my sons Birthday last evening - what an absolute joke! Booked a table for 7.30, paid on entry and were seated. The restaurant was not particularly busy - good job as what little food was actually available was pretty much inedible. I asked to speak to the manager who informed me the kitchen was closed - it wasn't even 8oclock. I asked for a refund to be told that was not possible and he said he would speak to the chef about making some more food. In a closed kitchen?? They made about three Chinese dishes and thought that was satisfactory! I would advise you to avoid JRC at all costs!!! They appear to have disabled the review function on their page - wonder why!"
