Finally tried the breakfast buffet and it's pretty great. There's a omelet bar, salad bar, cold cuts, dimsum, noodles, pancakes, lots of pastries and deserts.

Been over a year since I have been back here due to covid..but it's still great! The seafood weekend dinner is very good and they also have good American BBQ. One dish that I really liked was actually their Mac and cheese, it was simple yet cruncy and delicious. They didn't have the king crab legs this time but the blue crabs were fresh and the grilled prawns were good too.

Just finished the Sunday Brunch and its the best meal I had here yet. They give you a good size Boston lobster not half of a small one like at other sunday buffets. Service also seems to have improved even more and they've hired on a good number of western staff. Going to have to up the review to a full 5 stars as I just can't find any faults. If you come here with the 50% eatigo discount its practically a steal given what's on offer. Good variety of meats, seafood, and desserts only thing lacking might be vegetarian food.

Had the Wednesday BBQ, Great variety! Good selection of seafood, of meats, of cooked food, and desserts. Only two flavors of Icecream but everything tasted great. The staff was ok but not as friendly as at the Sofitel. I would rate this one of the top 3 hotel buffet's in Bangkok
Tried the Tuesday evening Chinese themed also. Again the food is great, its just the services that's a bit lacking. The staff should check on you a little bit more often. Order a dish and it takes a long time to arrive. But again most of the food is really good, only their curry is kinda bla. The desserts are great.
Update: just had the Saturday night seafood buffet. Again over all it was pretty good. The king crab legs were great! Fresh and sweet tasting, but the blue crabs next to them were mushy and about to go. Oyster lovers would love it they had lots chucked and ready. The grill was great but took 20 mins to get the food you ordered. And they had all you can drink soda and juice.
Today I tried the lunch buffet to see how it compares to the dinner one. While you are not going to be getting the oysters, seafood on ice such as rock lobster and crab, and Lamb chops. There is still plenty of variety. Plus the price is cheaper and you still get free soda.
I've come to realize that Seasonal Tastes is my personal favorite Buffet here in the Sukumvit area. It just has the best combination of location, quality, variety, and value. Also service has gotten better I think.
For example Goji Kitchen has a great spread, probably more variety, and best for desserts. But it's located in the middle of two BTS stations and will take 10 mins to walk there. The price there is more expensive and a soda will cost 99b.
Viola just down the road from Seasonal tastes has quality but not much variety. The buffet costs about the same but a soda there will cost you 150b.
Orchards cafe just across the road is about the same price but I feel the quality is not as good and a soda there is 130b
The Atrium at the Landmark is great if you like crab, but I feel the variety and quality in it's other foods are not as good. Price is more expensive but right now...from Nov on they got giant prawns from Myanmar so...big plus for sea food
JW cafe is also a bit of a walk from the BTS. Similarly prices and has good variety. Good for oysters and meat but other seafood is just ok. Soda is free here too.
