We went to the Carvery at the Abell Hotel a couple of times and you can order from the menu or have the buffet which is themed on the Brazilian style of Carvery. All the soups, vegetables, salads, breads and desserts are buffet style but all the meat is bought to your table on big skewers and carved onto your... More

For the price, you'd be sure to enjoy a good variant of meet. A wonderful place to relax and just hang out. The service is also good, as waiters and waitresses are very friendly.

Reservation was easy, just a quick call for a party of 10 on the day before. The restaurant is located just beside Tun... More

It's actually an inhouse restaurant for Abell hotel (3 stars) but the food and service is worthy of 5+ Bring your slack pants and forget the belt because it's called the carvery for a reason. Meat! Meat! Meat! I am a meat lover and I had a ball! The steaks were cooked to a very nice medium rare, the lamb... More
