Advantages: Great quality and lots of choice Disadvantages: Loud music and the service needs a bit more work
Red Hot World Buffet and Bar is the latest restaurant to open at Sixfields in Northampton. Sixfields is an entertainments venue (they call it a 'leisure park') encompassing Northampton Town's football ground, a Cineworld Cinema, a bowling alley and a whole host of different eating venues - from McDonalds to TGI Friday, Frankie and Bennies, Old Orleans and Bella Italia. You could be forgiven for thinking visitors had enough choice already but Red ... ...behind the McDonalds. A large red sign said 'Red Hot World Buffet and Bar'. Liking all things hot and spicy we decided to investigate.
The Red Hot Concept
******************
Red Hot opened just a couple of weeks ago and is the second restaurant by that name. The other is in Nottingham where (if the company's website is to be believed) it has built up a great reputation. The owners have chosen Northampton as their second venue and I for one and ...

Advantages: great selection of food, good parking Disadvantages: need bowls!!
...noticed a large restaurant called Red Hot. The sign said international buffet. Intrigued myself and a visiting friend parked the car and entered.
Where?
Red Hot is situated next to the large cinema on the Sixfield site. In the immediate area is Northampton town football club, a bowling ally and at least four other restaurants. It is on the outskirts of Northampton and can be easily reached.
Food?
This restaurant practices what it preaches. You ... ...well as a table full of salads and cold meats. My friend was concerned as to whether they offered enough of a vegetarian selection and was happy to find out that there was a large variety of meals without meat! I chose something from each area of the restaurant. The noodles were lovely served with beansprout for an extra bit of crunch. The fajitas were extremely spicy in meat and vegetarian options, you have been warned! The Indian and Italian was ...

this is the worst restaurant iv ever been too and I would reccommend you steer clear. Where do I begin? Service: Awful. The waitress had a scowel over her face the entire time and was depressing to look at. She was not helpful at all and it hurt having to pay a service charge when she didnt do anything. It is my belief that you should only tip for exceptional service and that it should be optional.
Food: Terrible. The only food edible was the chinese ... ...stale and most of the food had been preheated. The Indian food was the worst I have ever had..the chicken tikka tasted as if it had pesto sauce in it. Ive never been at a buffet where I didnt want to eat the food before..first time for everything I suppose.
Decor: Revolting. We were sat in a Marquee at the back of the restaurant. There were rugs on the walls and the chairs on our tables didnt match. Also the carpet was old/dirty. We were glad to ...

Advantages: Variety of food and a fun atmosphere. Disadvantages: Quality of food suffers due to large quantity being prepared.
Red Hot All You Can Eat Buffet (Sixfields, Northampton) does exactly what it says on the tin. It's a buffet and you can eat until you burst with food selections from Chinese, Thai, Indian and Mexican. As a person who enjoys a good meal out with quality food, this was ok overall.
The quality of the food was middling, seemed to be lots of chicken dishes which were fine but I prefer a bit more variety like lamb or prawn. The starters were good though, ... ...It was quite crowded at the time I was there, and it did feel limited on space with people squashed together - so ok, maybe I should have expected this but I do like to be able to push my chair back a few inches without hitting the person behind me or feeling like the people next to me were listening to my conversation! Having said that, the place was nicely decorated and clean. Do book though if you're going on a weekend and be prepared for it to ...
