A great buffet restaurant with an awesome spread, described.
-
Vienna International Seafood Buffet Restaurant at United Square
* = the best.
Soups: sharks fin*, buddha jumps over the wall* (so fat how to jump?), ginger fish, chicken*, crocodile
Seafoods n meat: big rock oysters, gratin baked oysters*, spammer and pepper* and chilli crabs, crayfish, lobsters, king scallops, scallops cooked with hot sauce*, jap scallops, cereal king prawns*, broiled king prawns, roast beef, grilled eel*, peking duck rolls, braised chicken, n the usual buffet spread. also has jap stuff like sushi, sashimi, soba, chawanmushi, and a teppenyaki section with beef lamb chicken salmon dory sashimo n vegetables. but i'd rather eat the more expensive stuff
Deserts: fruits n marshmellows with chocolate fondue fountain*, cut fruits, green tea jellies, puddings, frog egg desert, ice cream, cakes, cheesecakes, c0cktails in test tubes*, tea, glasses of sparkling red wine.
Ambience described: good air con, waitresses clear your plates very fast, food replenished fast, tables lighted beneath, revolving crystal ball lights, sofa and booth type seating inside, glass walls facing pond with waterfall and lights, also has tables outside beside the pond.
Review: Cost is $40/ after +++. considering that great buffet spread with rare food and expensive seafood ingredients, its worth it. the food is fresh, almost every dish tastes nice, the sauces are nice, theres a big variety of everything, and you can eat as much as you want of your fav stuff ^^ (but i wonder why its called "vienna" when the food is mostly asian and all their staff too). call to reserve booth seating inside. go by mrt to novena or park at united square.

vienna is not new lah

the oni thing i dun like abt the place is that it's very cramped.... -

I know another restaurant that serves sashimi in buffet, they cut it so badly, instead of slices, you get strips.Originally posted by pqr:i disagree !!!

dinner.
gt lobsters, small ones la.
sharks fins yes, a small craypot like that lor.
crayfish was complimentary.
Saw the waiter only came to our table with a plate of sambal crayfish, said it's complimentary. That was delicious, but a bit too spicy. -

I have tried Vienna a year back and i can say there are better places to eat for the price you pay.
It's $35+++ has limited value for money. The teppanyakki sucks; it's equivalent to the standard at Genghis Khan/Khublai Khan buffet spreads.
