Yu - Bern

The salad buffet is fine, just an ordinary table with some salad stuff, plus two/three asian sauces. Not really astonishing. The main buffet consisted of about 2 chinese wok pans and 3 or 4 curries. The serving area was dirty, messy and at 1930h the fried rice had gone. It didn't come back as we only got a bit of regular rice provided thereafter. The sushis were fine. But the general way on how to display the food was much below the expectations especially for CHF 64. The dessert buffet looked very nice on the first glimpse. The second glimpse confirmed that the availability was again, quite scarce. No refilling of the mashed marronis and the ice cream was just a dirty mess in the self service carriage. The chocolate fountain looked nice but only about 10 pieces or rapes were available, nothing else. So what to dip in the chocolate fountain? It obviously served as a display rather than a food source... the other desserts were pretty much gone by 20.15h and no refilling was provided, the service staff confirmed. Finally, a big mess and timey encashment made the experience worse. Won't go back again.

After a long time not bein in the Kursaal my wife and I decided to treat ourselves and got the Asian buffet at Yu in the Kursaalhotel in Bern. The food was simply delicious, there was plenty to choose from and to try (entree, main course as well as an amazing dessert area). The service can only be described as excellent (very friendly, professional and forthcoming). We had a great time eating there and spending our time together. Yes, it is certainly pricey compared to other restaurants in Bern, tho it is located in a 4 star hotel after all (and we think its quite worth it). And it certainly was a good idea to reserve/book a table beforehand (it was Saturday, so quite busy) Thank you, Yu team! Looking forward eating there again.

Buffet Tuesday to Saturday. Rich buffet from salad with various sauces to miso soup with 3 ingredients to various Asian dishes (cold and warm). Nobody stays hungry at all. Be sure to leave room for the dessert buffet! The atmosphere is rather dark and sterile. The buffet is always freshly replenished.

Love the place, ambiance and the food is absolutely amazing. Especially the Chinese part ... It's definitely in my top 3 asian buffets ever !

The Asian buffet offers something for everyone. The starter buffet has small, delicious snacks such as sushi or fried shrimps. The main course buffet has around 6 different main courses available. Dessert buffet rather European, but still very tasty!
