The best Chinese food I have ever tasted. The smoked shredded chicken is gorgeous so we ordered a second helping of that! Staff are so friendly and keep asking if you want more. Great that it is all you can eat, but still a proper sit down restaurant with high quality food. This was our second time, and we will now be a regular!
What's is there not to like about the Water Margin. Firstly an all you can eat freshly cooked and served to your table Chinese buffet of anything or everything on the menu. Secondly every time we have been there the staff have been welcoming and helpful with what we need and any special requests.
We can understand why this place is always quiet as the quality of food is great and at such a good value and we normally go in with several people and share all the starters and after that we pick a couple of mains to share. We have been multiple times and normally take others with us to show them where it is and no one ever leave still wanting more.
Well worth a visit and I know once you have been you will go bad again and again
Lovely meal here tonight. We went for the buffet but it was not on. Instead, for the set price we ordered a selection of dishes to share. The staff encouraged us to try various different dishes and to keep ordering. The honey chilli prawns and the roast duck and pork with beansprouts were particularly good but all the dishes were well flavoured and freshly prepared. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back.
On behalf of my dinner party we would rate this restaurant 10/10. What more is to say, very good food, friendly staff and excellent value for money.
We had the fixed price buffet menu, all you can eat and cooked to order ......OMG we could not fault it. The food was flavoursome and fresh and there was stacks of it.
Our table was booked for 3pm and we was still sat there at 5pm. There was no pressure to leave and staff was very happy to continue serving. We will definitely be going back and will also order from the take away menu.
I am so fussy when it comes to food and stick to what I know and like but because of the style of menu on offer, this was perfect for me because it gave me the option to try different dishes.
Please try you will not be dissapointed!!
Great place to fill your belly!! £15 for buffet without drinks and everything on the menu is lovely, duck, chicken balls, salt and pepper strips...the lot. Delicious!
The staff are nice and friendly also which makes the visit more enjoyable. Kids menus are available also so it's family catered. What more do you want?
Recommended going with an empty stomach.
Water Margin is fantastic! We were in Aberdeen for a conference and stumbled upon this amazing little treasure. Caroline was delightful as our hostess. The food, start to finish, was extraordinary. We had a great time! Don't miss out on this experience.
The most authentic Chinese food I've had in Aberdeen. Comparable to the Chinese food I had in mainland China during my 8 years there. The Sichuan fish us big enough for at least two people. The salted egg prawns are great too. Only accepts cash.
Lovely meal everything cooked fresh we shared several starters followed by duck and pancakes all excellent followed by mains and sides. All you can eat for set price. Very efficient staff polite and friendly . We will def be back.
First class meal (carry out) particularly the chicken sweetcorn soup which was like a meal on it's own, it was full of tender chicken pieces with a perfect texture, not gloopy at all, smoked chicken and fried noodles also! And to top it all the staff were very helpful, smiley and friendly! Cannot fault it at all! 5 star in my book.
Excellent value for money, food really tasty and freshly cooked. Calls it a 'buffet' but in reality it is a fixed price 'eat what you wish' from the LARGE selection of dishes on the menu. Certainly would recommend visiting.
