You are given a review about a place. You need to provide a rating from "1 star" to "5 stars" for this place.

Let me give you an example: Although I did enjoy the food here, I was completely unimpressed (and slightly annoyed) by the overpriced margaritas. I ordered a platinum which contained "fresh" juice. It tasted like it had sprite in it, so I thought surely she gave me the wrong one. It turns out that "fresh juice" is really margarita mix on tap from the same gun as the sprite. I asked for something fresh to replace the horrible margarita and received a rocks glass with just muddled lime and a salted rim. I'm not sure it contained any tequila. Horrible! It's not that hard to make a fresh margarita!
The answer to this example can be: 2 stars
Here is why: The writer has been annoyed in this place and has enjoyed the food. So, "2 stars" sounds reasonable for it.

OK. solve this:
I had high hopes for Woodlands' lunch buffet based on the reviews. Unfortunately, the food did not meet my expectations and it was pricier for a hole-in-the-wall joint.

There weren't very many options: "salad bar" (a large platter of limp salad with some sauces and onions surrounding it), a soup, bread, some fritter-type thing (not samosas), rice, noodles, a dessert, and about 4-5 kinds of curry. I know that sounds like a decent number of options, but all the curries tasted alike except for the saag paneer. I love saag paneer, but this was thin and bland. In fact, all the curries were watery... My plate had a pool of water that separated from the curries. I've never encountered that before.

The dining area was cramped and small. Which is fine... I don't expect ambience from a small ethnic place. But there was also no temp control -- it was sweltering hot... Which doesn't pair well with spicy-ish food. The staff was nice, but incredibly slow.

I would not return of my own volition.
Answer:
2 stars
