Lots of food choices. Courteous and accommodating staff. It was a good place to celebrate Mother's Day.

Longest buffet line I have ever seen. The ambiance is perfect. Service is great and the food is amazing There is food for everyone from Pizza, pasta, lechon, prime rib, traditional Filipino food and many desserts to select from. The price is even better. Definitely will be back when I come back to the Philippines read more

2nd to last night out during the trip and I was with a few others - our initial choice had an hour+ wait time and we were starving so we decided to try out another location within the BGC. It was interesting because this was my 3rd year staying in the BGC and never knew this existed nor was I prepared for it being a buffet. The place itself was large and full of seats scattered within the building. After being seated, there was a plethora of different types of food available. Japanese, Filipino, American, Chinese, Italian, coffee + deserts, etc. There was also a sort of bar/beverage area where you can have certain types of beer free of charge (wine/certain beers were charged extra.) I am knocking it down a star only because of the taste of food (consistency) amongst the booths that I chose. Some were okay, some were great. But that is to be expected in this style of buffet. That being said, it was a good experience. read more

A good place to celebrate a birthday with friends and family as the birthday person eats free! Unlimited beer, wine, and cocktails! And of course a wide variety of local Filipino cuisine to try plus Japanese and Italian. It's a buffet so don't expect table service but the staff is responsive and helpful when guiding a big group to what they need or having trouble choosing a selection. Overall a good value if you want to be at the central of the city and have plenty of food to eat. Casual so you don't have to dress up but do avoid being in flip flops, I know it seems common sense but we've seen tourists trying to get in and sadly turned away for service so don't make that mistake. Have fun and eat well! read more

The 3 star reviews are correct. If you want a better experience you will need to look for another place. I will give another 1/2 star since it includes alcoholic beverages and a better than average view. But if you are like me and are wanting a quality dining experience consider a 5 star hotel's buffet you will be more satisfied. With that being said if NIU decides to focus on quality not on quantity they just might be competitive. read more

Went there during my Manila visit with high expectations after watching food vlogger Tim Lee's video. Unlike Tim, I wasn't hosted by the restaurant owner. Service was professional, and food was ok. Nothing really stood out, but it was an ok experience overall. Glad I tried it to satisfy my curiosity, but probably not good enough for me to want to go back. read more

Wide selection of international cuisines with nice modern and classic mixed ambiance. Service was reasonable considering the large patron

Amazing food !!! A wide range of choices of Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, American, Spanish Cuisines that's very tasty and delicious ! The long wait is so worth it ... will be back with more family n friends :) TIP: The best Paella and Bibingka I've tried !!! read more

Extremely agitated about the staff here. At reception there's a sign advising those with allergies to advise staff before grabbing food. At every point that I asked a staff member if an entree or dessert contained my allergens (nuts, seafood, coconuts), they said yes and then i overheard them ask someone else. For desserts, the pastry chef asked "you have your medicine right?" It's not that simple and I'm insulted. I could DIE from my allergies- it's not some mild allergy I can take benadryl for. I carry epipens because I COULD DIE, EDUCATE YOUR STAFF. Also, you have tongs being used on multiple dishes meaning you're cross-contaminating food. I hate it here. read more

Hmmm...where will I start? First of, the visit was a total disappointment. Two years ago, it was totally different. It was a real premium buffet for P 1K. But now, I may say that Cabalen buffet is better than yours for only P394. It was such a waste of money to eat here at Niu by Vikings go P1500++. It was like a scam. Here are a few things out of the many disappointments: 1) No red wine. White wine was warm, not chilled. When I asked for chilled white wine, they looked at each other as if I don't know what I was talking about. San Miguel beer was unavailable as well. 2) it was only 7pm and 90% of the food were almost empty. Food were not fresh, choices were very limited and quality was very poor. 3) Staff were rude and sarcastic. I know they were short staffed but that's not an excuse and very unacceptable. The only staff that was friendly was the lady by the dessert section. I will never come back here. read more

Price at around PHP1,500.00 per head for buffet is not worth it anymore. Service: 1/5 so hard to ask for food. Food station servers are either not attentive or deliberately ignoring guests. Cleanliness: 1/5 small cockroaches at food stations and floor. No attendant anymore inside CR. Lots of muddy water puddles on the CR floor. Food: 2/5 wine ran out at 8pm. Many items are not available anymore. Ambiance: 1/5 it was very warm inside the restaurant. We requested to be transferred to another area but request was denied. read more

Been here before Pre-Pandemic a couple of times. We saw the difference....It has changed drastically. We called for reservations -who scheduled us at 4p w/ confirmation text. but when we got to the resto -front desk stated their not open til 430p (staff isn't consistent at the get go). weekday dinner pricing of Php1438/pp. They NEED more menu selections. Food was just ok. coz there's not much out to choose from. (just spent less than one hour in a AYCE resto which is very unusual) Only thing that sparked & stood out of our interest was the LENGUA ESTOFADO & PUTO BUNGBUNG which was delicious. That being said, Our server was awesome & safety guidelines are up to par. However, ppl dine here for an array of food menu which their lacking. Hope they read this & up take coz we really loved this place. int'l foodie vlogger read more

After so many years I came back today to celebrate 2 events, my husband's birthday and Mother's Day. To my surprise the place looks so ordinary and very chaotic. People are so loud can't barely hear the music on the background. Very disappointing because we thought it's the same classy place to dine in with your family and friends. As I can remember when this place was still very new there was a dress code to come and dine in. Now I see people wearing shorts and flip flops I would say totally not recommended for a semi formal brunch, lunch nor dinner parties. Though the food is okay but it still needs more and better dishes selections. read more

Worst food & service! Not worth your time & money. Ambience is not good as well, restaurant is dirty, water dripping on ceiling, food is dry with limited selection. Employees are rude, rushing & completely not attentive to customer needs. I'm sorry but I will never go back to this place. I have been to this place 2015 since Iive outside the country and it was the complete opposite of my review today, no service consistency at all. read more

I would've given this place 5 stars if it wasn't for the following: 1. I made reservations for 15 people. When I got there, there were only 13 seats AND the tables were separated. I was NOT informed that my party will be split into 2 tables. 2. The chairs were not made for a buffet; but rather for a sit-in style. The chairs were bulky and hard to move around. Yes, they look nice, stylish and modern, but they were big and an inconvenience for a buffet. 3. It was hot inside.... not sure if their A/C was broken or their air conditioner cannot handle the amount of people inside the restaurant. ----------------------------- In any case, the food was phenomenal - not only was there an abundance, but the quality was unmatched. In retrospect, I wouldn't mind coming back here again but definitely in a smaller group. read more

Niu By Vikings is absolutely excellent! I don't know whether is the impeccable service or the quality of the food or the breadth of their selection or the combination of each. We had an great time at Niu By Vikings. I could not believe how much food selection there is here at Niu, Actually, its immense selection is comparable to top tier (yup, there I said it) Lav Vegas buffets. I am thinking Wicked Spoon @ Cosmo, The Buffet @ Belagio, and other similar buffets. I have forgotten the names, but I loved their Japanese pork belly bbq skewers and Lechon belly. Their prime rib isn't bad as well. There dessert selection is also immense and delicious as well. White chocolate fountain, um yeah! I haven't seen that before I do immensely love anything white chocolate. The decor, settings, and ambiance are very good as well. Oh and when you ask to grill something, they will bring it to your table when it is done, no more waiting. Overall, I would rate Niu a solid 4 stars. So why five? Two words: FREE ALCOHOL Yup, free local beer on tap. Free one-buck-Chuck equivalent wine. Being based in the States, it is unfathomable for me to see any establishment here offering unlimited amounts of beer/wine. Seeing unlimited San Miguel beer flowing is a two big thumbs up form me. (Although I only had two glasses since I was still mainly interested in eating.) read more

I'm giving it a 3 because of the pic I took. Don't get me wrong. The food is top notch for an AYCE buffet. There are great flavored dishes from all over that the cooks excel at, but this is why i am giving a 3. A child threw up on the way to the bathroom leaving a long trail that obstructed traffic. It took service more than five minutes to clean up the vomit trail. So I'm sitting there, eating, while this puddle of puke sits there. I'm not a person who gets grossed out easily, but for the safety and sanitation for other patrons, I think five plus minutes was excessive to clean up THAT type of mess. I still recommend Niu. I love the food. So if you're at SM Aura, please eat there! They might want to beef up clean up staff just a little though. read more

Niu By Vikings - Buffets Near Me - Taguig, NCR

JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL. TAKE EVERY SINGLE STAR!!! Niu is the best buffet of ALL time... well at least for me, here in Manila. Vikings is arguably the most popular buffet chain in the Philippines and for good reason. Starting at P700 (almost $15 USD), you have a solid selection of diverse food at your unlimited disposal. HOWEVER, NIU IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL. Everything from the food to the desserts to the service to the decor is just of the highest quality. The diversity of foods offered are just prepared and served with such presentation. Without any exaggeration, the food is displayed magnificently. Quality desserts such as gelato and macarons are offered. There is also unlimited beer and wine, as well, in addition to the unlimited juices that Vikings also carries (try the Cucumber Melon and Wintermelon juices and thank me later). If you're going to spend ANY special occasion anywhere, it should be here. Aside from the visually stunning and high end decor, the service is impeccable. You can tell customer service is of utmost importance. May I also say that I ate here on the actual day of my birthday with my mother and my meal was FREE. We only had to pay for her meal, which was P1300. Although it's an actual birthday promo, eating that well for free felt illegal. No, I have not been to Spiral yet and I still don't care what you say. For its value of starting at almost P1000, Niu is still the best buffet in Manila. Worth every centavo. read more

Come hungry, leave happy. Coming to town I've definitely heard all the hype of this place. It's definitely lived up to my expectations. At times the weight can be a little bit long depending on whether you come here on peak hours or off hours. Either way the food seem to be pretty fresh coming there at an off hour, And unlike going to other buffets this place always replenishes the food and doesn't leave you scraping for scraps. The massive selection, huge long buffet line offerings extend the entire length of the building. I love the fact that you can also serve yourself with regards to drinks and dessert. read more

Was super stoked to try this place out when I got to the Philippines. Honestly, it was a let down for me. I guess I just had high expectations. They had an impressive spread, but there was nothing that blew my tastebuds away. I liked their unlimited alcohol, esp the wine!! But unfortunately we came here for early lunch and had a whole day planned out that I really couldn't take advantage of it. Dessert spread looked so yummy but didn't taste as good as it looked. I liked that they had a special moment for all birthdays in the room & they also eat free with I.d. It's def a luxury buffet and way more expensive than a typical meal in the Philippines but cool experience! I do loveee their plates with different sections def helps with going around and trying different dishes without them touching! read more

Came here for my partner's birthday (day of birthday, celebrant eats free with one paying adult, month of birthday with 4 paying adults) The celebrant also gets a free personalized dessert, complete with singing. And with all the desserts on the tables that I saw walking in, this is a popular birthday spot. This promo is unbelievable once you see how long the buffet line is! There are foods from every cuisine, including great a sushi selection, dim sum (even xiao long bao), roasts, pasta bar and several infused waters and juices, wines, and beer on tap. The hardest part will be saving room for and deciding on what to have of their massive dessert and gelato selection! This was the one "splurge" on our trip but was totally worth it, especially at the price of two for one. read more

Best buffet I've tried in Manila so far. Wide range of cuisine from French, Spanish, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Filipino, Chinese, Japanese, Italian etc. All you can drink beer and wine, infused water, soda, iced teas, coffee and hot teas. Desserts ranging from creme brûlée, rice cakes, ice creams, fresh fruits and halo-halo. Nothing really fancy but everything you could ask for, all yummy and more than one could eat in one sitting. For under P1,000/head, the price is definitely worth it compared to other places with fewer selections and poorer flavors. read more

All you can drink! All you can eat! NIU buffet is one of my top 3 buffets. In the Philippines for the price. For the affordable price you get bottled beer and wine! Unlimited They have a lot of made to order choices here so you don't have to be disgusted by cold or old looking food. Also if you like foie gras they have it here made to order perfect dish to clog the arteries! But in the good way. Some downsides the service for the made to order dishes take a little while especially when it's busy but definitely worth it. read more

Filipinos can't have nice things. For the same reason that fast food joints don't put the soda machines accessible to the customers, Niu should not give Filipinos unrestricted access to the carving stations. Next time you visit Nui, proceed to the carving station where the ribeye roasts are cut. Notice that an oval shaped rib roast is now square shaped? That's because some of the clever patrons have the guys at the carving station cut off the entire prized deckle muscle (cap portion) of the rib roast, leaving behind only the eye (which is still good, but it's the principle of the thing). The carving station shouldn't allow cuts like this to be made, as it ruins the meat for the true connoisseurs of beef. We know what you did. Filipinos can't have nice things. In all seriousness, the buffet was better than I imagined and I was relatively pleased with the experience. Imagine this as a poor man's Spiral buffet, without the frills. Will I come back? Maybe perhaps when dining with friends who are not trying to spend P4k+ on Spiral. Not my favorite experience, but I certainly didn't hate the experience. STOP CARVING ROAST BEEF LIKE SAVAGES! read more

Wow. A huge buffet of American, Japanese, Filipino, Chinese, Italian, etc. It was all good, fresh, and tasty. Ask for the lobster soup, it's not on the buffet but they will make it for you. Also, beer and wine was good too. Service can be a little slow. Free meal if it's your birthday month an you are with a paying guest read more

I've been here thrice since they opened last 2014. Situated in BGC where my office is, this became our to-go office lunch place especially when we have something to celebrate for. The first time I went here, I wore a floral dress to match the interiors and ambience. The only time I regretted wearing that dress is when I realized I asked the server to give me a plate of sushi plate for myself. I love how Niu offers a big variety of food selections. Since I've been here thrice, I go directly to food stations like: the sushi bar, the Chinese food station, drinks, the steak (twice) and the desserts place especially the gelato. Now that they offer their lunch buffet for the price of P888, I will definitely come back again cause it's really worth it. Take note that they offer unlimited wine. Definitely the best buffet restaurant I've been to! read more

Niu By Vikings - Buffets Near Me - Taguig, NCR

When I was invited to have dinner in Niu, I made sure to starve myself for the day. Right after office hours, I did a 15-minute workout just to get my appetite up, and then got ready for the feast that was about to come. Buffets generally do not impress me, since I prefer quality over quantity, but Niu's selection comes really close to serving both. I started the night off with cold cuts, and their selection of prosciutto, salami and chorizo are satisfactory for the palette. They have a bit of cheese also, but they really shine in their caviar section. After that, I went straight to the Japanese section to get some sashimi and maki. Their carving station needs to be mentioned, as they really cater to any craving you might have. Being an honest meat-lover, I tried everything - the lechon belly, the roast beef, the ribs, the turkey and the lamb - all of which just perfectly cooked and seasoned. You're also given a choice of sauce, and they even place suggestions on which sauce goes with a particular meat. As for dessert, they have a wide selection of cakes and pastries, which unfortunately I didn't get to. I went straight for the fondue (chocolate covered fruits are awesome!) and ice cream. There were a lot of flavors to choose from, but ended up with a three scoop combination of ube, cheese and chocolate cashew. After dessert, I felt like I could still have a plate or two, but decided against it since I was trying to be good on my tummy. What I realized after was that a food coma could hit you really hard, and let's just say I had a good night's sleep digesting all the wonderful flavors Niu had to offer. read more

Good food, unlimited drinks including wine and beers. This one is cosier than the other Vikings, not a lot of startling happy birthday singing Will be back for sure to pig out. May not be for you if you don't like buffets or if you're a light Eater read more

I've been here a couple of times but now, the ambience and food has changed. Restaurant was not comfortable because of the airconditioning system. Almost non existent. Prepare to sweat while eating. Food was also lacking compared a couple of years ago before the pandemic. Juices almost had no taste. Sobrang "tabang" maybe because of the cost of sugar. I don't think I will be back here not unless they fix their a/c, food, juices and some chairs which already need re upholstering. read more

For Balikbayans like me, this buffet is over priced. The food will not something that will blow your taste bud. I am not really sure why this buffet is expensive compared to other buffets. Pasta station is bland. Its like a pasta that came from a person who is just learning to cook pasta. Ingredients are cheap. Desserts station lacks attentiveness from servers. Seems like they are more busy preparing their stations and chit chatting than actually serving the customers. Again, desserts are not good. Seems like it was just an after thought. read more

YUM. Niu buffet is one of the better buffets for a pretty affordable price. If You go for lunch on a weekday it'll only Run you about p800. And for your birthday they subtract the percentage of your age from the bill. For example, 30years old = 30% off. The atmosphere is really nice. I like the upscale design of the restaurant. One thing I don't like is that everything is so tight. They tried to fit a bunch of table in a small room, it can be a hassle to get from one end of the buffet the other. The food is pretty yummy. There's all types of food from various countries. My favorite is the Japanese, but they also have Korean, Filipino, American, Italian, Chinese, French. And many more. I love sushi and theirs is pretty decent. It's definitely a plus that you can keep going back for more. The pasta section is another highlight of this buffet because it's made to order. There are actually several dishes that are made to order and the waiters will bring it to your table hot and ready. Drinks are amazing. I love all their juices, like the winter melon and pandan. Yum. What's even better is that they have unlimited beer and cocktails for no extra cost. Perfect place to grub and turn up with all your buddies. read more

Celebrated my wife's birthday and availed their birthday promo. We enjoyed the beef rib, turkey, lamb, kufteh and baked oysters. Unlimited imported beer and other alcoholic beverages was a plus.

There was a time when I told myself that I would never come back to another eat-all-you-can buffet. I just came home from a birthday celebration at a buffet and my tummy was about to explode. I always hated the "OMG I'm so bloated I'm gonna die" feeling. I always saw myself coming back to these buffets so I just decided to take it easy on the rice and eat lite. NIU by Vikings is the concept of Vikings upgraded to have more quality and yummy food. The obvious difference is the collection of European dishes that I don't know how to pronounce. It's a also a bit more expensive here but they also have more food. Their Ice creams are like the artisan ones that are trending right now. You can make your own soup by the Japanese area. You can also get a mojito in their mini bar. Their dessert area is also lined up with more mini cakes and mousses. What I like to do is get one or two pieces of each food and I just taste everything. Some people stay for a couple of hours and do three or four rounds "para sulit". read more
