My wife saw a non-descript café with a trio of guys smoking outside with an "ouvert" sign. Parking was a challenge but, when we walked a block up to the café, The proprietor greeted us with a smile and guided us through his bar room, down a step, and into a simple, nicely decorated dinning room with a display of relatively expensive wines and blackboards with wines organized by "color" with their prices per bottle and per glass and per pitcher. The luncheon patrons had already left; the only others were a Spanish family with children who were obviously observing their late lunch tradition. There was a salad bar of 8 different salads; four were with mayonnaise and the others were with tomato-based dressings. The 6 small portions that I served myself were very good - served slightly chilled. The proprietor offered us several choices for lunch. We each chose the same dish - sausage stuffed baby squid in tomato sauce. We knew the dish from other meals including a take-out from our village butcher. It's one of my favorite local dishes. I've never had it outside this region of France. The particular version was better than most that I have had because the sausage was a bit more spicy than the others and I found that very appealing. We drank a small pitcher of rose with sparkly water and declined some very nice-looking desserts. The bill was 36 euros. [ NOTE: There is no web page for this restaurant and no web-based review of it -- this is the first review and it's on Yelp. There are two other Le Continental entities in this town; one is a business and the other is a hotel.]

The Les Grands Buffet tonight was in the top three of buffets in the world I have been fortunate to visit, as far as the high quality and flair goes. The Nikko Hotel in Vietnam and The Colony in Singapore are right up there with Les Grands. The wait staff are just amazing and super attentive. I cannot say enough about the food taste of the main courses and freshness of the seafood. The cheese selections (over 100 varieties) and the numerous gourmet desserts were insanely good. There are some great videos online that showcase the excellence of this restaurant. Overall, get a closeby hotel and go work out at nearby gym when visiting Les Grands buffet in Narbonne!

If you have ANY dietary restrictions, don't bother coming here, period, the end…read more My husband and I had been trying since August 2025 to get a reservation for 2 at Les Grands Buffet and after checking weekly and running into constant issues on their booking site, we finally snagged a Christmas Day booking for 8 PM. We rented a car and booked a hotel room and drove from Tarragona, Catalonia, Spain on Christmas Day just to eat here. We had seen the reviews online from people like Wolter's World and Mark Wiens on YouTube. We were excited to try this supposedly gigantic, fancy buffet in the South of France. Their website mentioned that they had options for dietary restrictions. We prepaid our meal when booking but drinks are not included, not even water. Whatever, European restaurants are annoying in that aspect. We arrived at the restaurant and found out it's attached to a bowling alley. We had to walk through some sort of disinfectant mister and then head inside. The person who walked us to our table spoke English and showed us to our seat. The seats were crammed together to the point a built in planter box was taking up half of my seat at the table. I had to sit with my chair at an angle to avoid being poked by the sharp corner of the planter. Despite seeing French speakers being given a tour, I was not. This has never happened at any high end buffet that I've visited, and I've been to them all as I live in Las Vegas. A chef has always come out and pointed out what I could and couldn't eat when I told the staff that I had celiac disease. I don't even need them to speak English. I understand pointing and "oui / non." I was handed an allergen binder and found out that ALL of the hot main dishes contained gluten. All of them. The only hot main dish I could have was a slice of beef with no sauce - even the mustard contained gluten. I carried the allergen binder into the appetizer section and had to look at the name of each item and see if I could find it in the binder (which is stressful) and only then choose the item. A staff member saw that I looked confused / stressed and told me in English that I could have all of these cheeses except 2 that she pointed to. She then asked me to take a photo of the allergen binder on my phone to look at while going through the buffet so that they could have the binder back. How about pointing out what I CAN eat so that I'm not having to stand around trying to figure it out? I was given a basket of sliced sandwich loaf as my gluten-free bread. Buffet is mostly cheese, cured meats and cold seafood. There really aren't even that many options, even if you have no medical dietary restrictions. Every Vegas resort buffet is larger than this one. It was such a disappointment. The dessert buffet has an ice cream station and at a certain time they stop serving desserts from a case. I pointed to the mini souffle in the case (to give to my husband because the lines were so long.) I was told that they're not longer serving it because it was too late, despite it being more than 15 minutes before the cutoff time. Service was horrible. I got a half lobster and our waitress never brought me a claw cracker after saying that she would. Plates piled up on our already cramped table. The cost of water was never told to us so we didn't want to order something without knowing the cost. It ended up only being a few euros which we paid for at the end of the meal. Unless you're planning to eat nothing but cheese, Spanish cured pork and some boiled seafood, don't bother if you can't eat gluten. My husband who had no dietary restrictions said that he didn't even like the hot dishes that he tried and that the meats tasted gamey. Visited: December 2025
