They all work pretty much the same way so wanted to let you know what I really liked about Minas.\n\nFirst, in my booking I mentioned it was a belated mothers day lunch, and when we arrived their was a chalkboard sign on the table saying \"Happy belated Mothers Day\". Just a little touch but was lovely to see.\n\nService was excellent from our server. She was attentive but didn't crowd us. Never had an issue with a pile of plates in front of us waiting to be taken away.\n\nAlso really liked that it didn't feel like we were being pushed into buy more things from them. For example the waitress let us know right at the beginning that there are some desserts on the buffet, but there were additional ones on the menu if we were interested in those. Giving me options without the sneaky \"get you to order before you realise they cost more\" tactic some places have.\n\nGood selection of salads and hot food. Nothing was overly rich which left a little more space for more meat.\n\nSome of the meats were a little dry. But the pork shoulder was well seasoned and moist; the lamb had an amazing rub on the outside that was almost sweet; and the sirloin was soft and flavourful.\n\nI can never really eat enough to justify all you can eat meat, but really enjoyed Minas. Would go back."^^ .
