Okay, this is the first Buffet des Continents in Quebec at which I've eaten, having eaten here a few times. I also tried the Brossard location once. My last experience was at this location in St.-Jerome and I'm writing an update for it. Let me say that this is a very nice store. This northern suburb skews newer and this restaurant aligns with that observation. It's also nice that it has a mezzanine and even an outdoor upstairs seating patio. This location has the leaning tower of Pisa in the midst of it while Brossard has the Eiffel Tower, making this chain kitsch in this regard, albeit with "clear" branding. I went with the typical 4 plate system: salads and vegetables, entrees 1, entrees 2, and desserts. I also had coffee. The variety of food is quite vast. Popular foods tend to be North American/Canadian, Italian, Greek, and some Asian and Mexican choices. There is also a rotisserie and carving station. The first plate with the salads and vegetables was uniformly good. For the most part, the second plate, with meat and fish, was also good. I had some issues with the third plate, upon which I had put on some slices of pizza and a small Greek casserole. Some of the items tasted a little flat, with the Greek casserole in a round tin being especially so. Then, the fourth plate was good, and it had different flavors of jello, cake, as well as pudding Chomeur. I laughed at all the jello that was on display, thinking that the residents of a senior housing locale would be very excited by all that jello! As for the pudding Chomeur, it wasn't as moist as what I had at the Brossard location. I want to add that I went into this Buffet des Continents within an hour of closing. I was immediately told that, because it was a week night and the patronage was a little low, it was not likely that additional food would be added. This could account for some of the mains being a little bland after sitting out for a while. The apparent manager was very friendly and helpful. The younger employees servicing the table were nice enough. However, in going up to the buffet area to get the next plate, I found my table cleared off not once, but twice! They rectified it and the manager explained that some staff members were newer. I found these errors both irritating and funny because, with a packed house on a wintry day in Brossard, the serving staff there seemed to have connected with the patrons, as in engaging with them and remembering them, such that my table was never erroneously cleared. For four plates of food, the week night dinner price was definitely fair. I also like that this store/chain has adopted a system whereby you can have an automatic 12% put onto the tab that will act as a tip. I like that they chose a percentage between 10 and 15, which is about where I tip when at an AYCE/buffet sort of set-up. Take note that there has been a name change. Buffet des Continents is now Saveurs des Continents, which means "flavors of the continents" in French. This store could easily get back up to 4 star status. They have a very nice restaurant that is spacious, quirky, and interesting, and the distribution of what they feature has something for almost everyone. They just need to fix a few of the blander items, such as some that I mentioned, and it will be all good ... at least in my book. read more

On one hand, the food is good to ok, the location is really great and the decor is... Well grand? But, a month ago we had a birthday there. We had paid a reservation fee to make sure everything would go well. They took the money but forgot us. On top of making everybody wait we got almost kicked out because an other group was coming. I pointed out that if we could have access our seat at the right time and not 45 minutes late, we would have ample time to eat. But they turned a blind eye to us. For the record. We were a group of 50 at the time. Mindful of this I would never make reservations again there. For a quick bite of pizza between friends I wouldn't mind. But even after a month. I'm still a bit mad. I still can't believe they took the reservation's down but didn't bother call us or talk to us when we called to make a last check up 48 hours prior. read more

One year later I wanted to post an update- This place is still doing really well and I came back for lunch recently and was even more impressed. At just 15$ a person on the weekend, you can get a delicious brunch that rivals what you would find at a regular breakfast joint. There's tons of freshly cooked bacon, prepared all kinds of ways. If you like burnt bits or undercooked mushy bacon or just in between you'll find it. Breakfast sausages, pancakes, hashbrowns, french toast, and at least 4 types of eggs (fried, scrambled, benedict, boiled..) fresh fruits, yogourt, as well as plenty of other lunch options from their standard selection like chinese food, souvlakis, pizzas etc. Did I mention it's all you can eat!? Coffee and juice are included too. You WILL find something you like. It's unbeatable, and zero line ups this time. I went on both a Saturday and Sunday right around noon and there was no wait. Children under 12 eat FREE. I can't wait to go back! LOVE IT read more

It's a buffet! It's busy! It's busy! If you like food at a buffet then this place is good for you. The food is nice, some tasty and others not so good. I did like the seafood and few other stuff, but the salads, Italian and grill were not so good. I went there with family and Friends, the service was good and they were very nice. It was overcrowded but the seating was comfortable and you can walk to the buffet and back without hassle. Most importantly it was clean. You should give it a visit and you be the judge ! read more

I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food at this place. I usually avoid buffets but this was a work lunch and I had to attend. They had a good variety of foods and everything I tasted was above average for buffet food. The salad bar looked fresh and inviting. I still think buffets are too expensive though for what I personally eat. It was 15$ for lunch. read more

My kid was eating broccoli and good thing i saw that there was a worm on it and grabbed it from his plate,so we called the waiter and told him about it. He then called his manager, the manager came,as soon as she sees the worm she grabbed the plate from my hand and took off without saying anything,and she never came back. We ask the waiter if he could at least give us discount for it but he said that his manager is not really in a good mood to give us anything as a compensation. We then pay the whole amount and left the restaurant as if nothing happened,we didn't even get any apology from the management. It was such a bad experience! The service was always bad and the waiters are consistently rude..Never coming back in this restaurant,let alone recommend this place to eat in.. read more

Lots of hits and lots of misses. If you come close to 5pm, most of the food is fresh and some of it is actually quite decent. The later you come, the longer the food has been sitting there and the taste suffers. read more

This place is excellent! Very friendly staff and fast to get you seated and served! All the god was fresh and hot! Lots of parking and easy to access. I'm a truck driver myself and there are some room there for us guy to come and get something to eat! Really recommend going and I'll be coming back!!! read more

Never liked buffet places & here's why... 1- Huge crowds, kids running between your legs & people pushing. 2- lots of food choices but taste wise is very average & lots of msg. 3- You cannot out stay your time, you are asked to leave after certain hours if you get there when they open. 4- staff is unprofessional due sometimes to bad customers. I can go on but I think it is enough negative as an experience will definitely not go back read more

Decor is nice, there is enough place, but there is not a lot of choice for the food. I prefer to go somewhere else, its enough only if someone pay for me. read more

For a buffet it was alright . Most of them are so bad it's not worth reviewing came here for a friends birthday . They need more fruits for desert like peaches mangos . Sangria was not worth it tasted off. Ok food come nice staff at least the waitresses I had . read more

Surreal Disney-like interior seats 500 people. Wide variety of plentiful, mediocre food. Mostly Québécois versions of foods from around the world. Carvery not too bad, salads disappointing, tons of fried items. Lots of very happy children. Kids under 12 eat free which made the $21/pp slightly easier to bear. None of the desserts made with real cream. Seemed clean enough- noticed a lot of quality control in the buffet, ensuring platters were kept near and filled. Despite all that, the bizarre interior and strolling, live mariachi band made this a fun night out with the kids. Not sure we will be back. read more

Food is not good, they can't even make proper beef rice, do not recommend. Go around to any other restaurant in the area, Only positive point is the service. read more

An excellent "buffet" resto. Tons of choices, Asian, Italian, Greek, a variety of roasts, smoked meat. Inexpensive, great for kids, lots of room, friendly staff, large parking lot. Great value. read more

Nastiest restaurant of life !!! Not only we waited 20 mins to have a waitress ask us for drinks or to even get some water when we did order we got them 30 mins after. Mind you the waitresses were laughing and talking in the kitchen. Food was mediocre, only thing that was good was the pastas and fried stuff but come on even thats really hard to mess up. Taste was bland of course. Just overall disappointing. Asian section DON'T EVEN TRY!!! Their "soup" tasted like spicy water . This "restaurant" needs to change owner and staff. Disgusting. Never going back there for sure. read more

As the last reviewer mentioned, if you are hungry, like a variety of food and want to eat on a budget, this is a great place for you. But as I've always mentioned, a jack of all trades is a master of none.... and so, if you are looking for quality of ingredients and quality of execution, this is not the place to go. The Chinese section had some of the main staples like general tao, overly soy sauced fried rice and fried noodle but they were lacking in the staple but delicious chinese-buffet-fried-chicken-in-1000-year-oil, sure we don't expect crab or shrimp but at least fried chicken ? Everything else for me was a blur, the words that come to mind are fried, fried and cheesy. Oh yes, the sushi section was............ low on option, sadly executed and very very cold. Service was fantastic though and they have a makeup for kids booth. The make up artist was very sweet and patient as kids kept rolling up to get their faces drawn and left zero tip. Rating this buffet compared to others like Fu Lam and Vichy- it's very very mediocre. As they have to serve a large variety because they are "continental", expect to be fed and that's all. read more

So let me start by saying that I don't like buffet neither big commercial restaurant. This place is everything I don't like so....You'll love this place if: you enjoy a 3 stars buffet in a all inclusive resort in Cuba. The place is HUGE!!!! They can seat at least 400 hundred guests. The buffet is downstairs, a lot of tables are downstairs too. If you feel VIP or big shot I recommend to ask to be seated upstairs: even if you have to go up and down the stairs to get your food at least the noise level is more tolerable upstairs. Don't get excited the food won't get better because you work for it tho. You'll find the same type of tasteless, greasy, full of msg food. Pizza, Canadian fat gross Chinese food (egg rolls, spare ribs, cherry sauce, fried rice, etc), you can also have the looking not so fresh sushis. Of course if you like deep fried you'll be glad: fries, onion rings, calamari, frog legs, etc. Oh! We went on the Mexican night theme. So yeah. Loud Mexican music, some mariachi signing at the table (I hate that, always makes me feel sooooo awkward: should I stop eating? Should I look at them in the eyes? Should I pretend to be zen and all??) So there was also unauthentic Mexican food: rice, guacamole, tacos, sausage (don't ask), etc. And the poor staff was disguise with sombreros and Mexican outfit. I have to say: the staff was nice and helpful. Everything I ate was overly salted or overly tasteless (I'm sure it's a thing), except for the crab legs; they were good. The service and the fresh crab legs lead me to give 2 stars. That being said I hope to never go back. read more

I called to make a reservation and they refused to speak English to me. So if you only speak English good luck you'll have a tough time. I would recommend a place that can accommodate everyone which all restaurants should do. If you own a restaurant you should have people who speak both languages even though she spoke and was able to understand English she just refused to. read more
