Buffet Chinois Fu Lam earns mixed reviews, with diners praising its generous all-you-can-eat format, broad variety of dishes, fresh and well-presented options, and friendly, attentive staff in a convivial, family-friendly setting. The upside includes notable selections from the wok, seafood, soups, desserts, and vegetarian options, consistent refills, and good value for many, plus a lively live cooking station and a large, clean space. On the downside, several guests complain about price-value mismatches, occasional quality swings, items missing from the buffet, dishes served cold or not as flavorful, and long waits for takeout or delivery, especially on weekends; some report overcrowding or inconsistent service and even a few less favorable experiences. Overall, Buffet Chinois Fu Lam seems like a dependable, budget-friendly buffet that suits families and casual meals, but experiences vary and it may not meet expectations for those seeking premium quality or perfect consistency.
Super service, le personnel est agréable & attentionné!!! :) les plats sont tous pleins & frais (&chauds).
Du goût! Ce qui est rare dans des buffets ! :)
Le seul bémol serait que les étiquettes des plats ne correspondent pas avec ce qu'il y a dans les réchauds, mais sinon tout est super !! ;)
Yesterday was by far the worst experience i had in this restaurant. We just arrived, we didn't even had the time to sit down & we were asked if we want something to drink...like it was rush rush. Also the shrimps were greasy, missing tools to put ice cream & so on. On top of this, the waiter brought us the bill without even asking for it with the explanation that his shift is ending. I believe we still spent 30 min ...approx... & he was still working. Even so, we left him a tip of more than 15%. I wanted to order more beer but i didn't want to pay again, bill after bill, so in the end we left. No more this place for me, for us. FYI, my order nr is: 299035-5
I went once this summer on a weekend, it was okay, nothing impressive & it had some good choices of food. I went back on a Tuesday this time & it wasn't a pleasing experience: very limited food choices, food tasted like plastic, all of the food wasn't heated as it's supposed to be. I guess they put in more effort for the weekends only as it's busier. I would never refer this place to a friend/family for a buffet. For the same amount of money, might as well just go to Buffet Continental, much better food & atmosphere.
En salle. Un des derniers buffets chinois à volonté. Un choix assez grand & ben en masse pour une personne avec une petite ou une grosse faim. Convivial, ambiance amicale & décontractée, abordable pour les familles, super valeur qualité/prix & gros bonus sans prix: les enfants adorent le concept & les ados apprécient la variété. N'est pas un resto haut de gamme à 100$ le couvert, mais bien un resto familial qui vous offre un repas À VOLONTÉ, à un prix plus qu'abordable, soupes, salades, fruits de mer, viandes, menu intl/enfants, chef live qui nous fait des pâtes & des grillades à notre goût & un buffet de desserts, etc, il n'y a vraiment que pas de quoi se plaindre, vraiment. Moins de 4 étoiles est tout à fait injuste pour ce resto de renommée qui offre autant de services, depuis si longtemps & pour autant de familles.
Vraiment déçue de ce « buffet chinois ». Environs 1/3 des plats chauds sont des plats « chinois canadiens ». J'ai utilisé le mot « chaud », mais la nourriture est plutôt froide/tiède. La qualité n'est pas au rendez vous, la variété des plats non plus. Les plats ne goûtait pas très bon/frais également. Ne vaut vraiment pas la qualité/prix quand on considère payer aussi cher un soir de weekend. Le restaurant aurait également besoin d'une cure de jeunesse niveau mobilier & décoration.

I took a take out plate, 18$ for chiken teriyaki with veggies, I never saw as cheap as that plate. Kids portion with 4 peaces of chiken & vegies with a lot of liquid with it. It's been 4 years I stopped going to Fu Lam, because ofbthe prices, yesterday confirms my decision again to me. Such a shame.
I know that prices have gone up , but the quality of the food I think 🤔 that it took a turn downward . I was there a couple of times in a month & but times there were items missing from buffet. It was a place that I liked to go but no longer on the list.
Quality/Price not good, not a lot of different dishes & the ones that were there were the cheapest you can find in other buffet. The good dishes were from the wok, definitely worth it.. not the others unfortunately. For the future, please warm the food more so it's ready to eat. Funny story, we asked a waiter for the ice cream flavors & he said'I don't know', laughing while leaving, we also laughed a lot but our reaction made us thinking that this place is a bit messy.
The atmosphere is great, the place is very big, the aquarium looks great & the sofa comfy.
