Buffet des Continents operates as a large-scale international dining destination featuring an extensive array of global cuisines displayed across multiple thematic stations. The establishment highlights a vast selection of hot and cold dishes ranging from traditional Canadian comfort foods to diverse Italian pasta preparations and various seafood specialties. Patrons navigate an open floor plan where food is continuously replenished to maintain freshness across the sprawling service counters. Specialized sections often include dedicated areas for carved meats, fresh salads, and a wide variety of prepared desserts designed for high-volume service. The infrastructure supports a casual environment focused on variety, allowing diners to sample multiple culinary traditions within a single visit. This operational model prioritizes accessibility and volume, ensuring that diverse flavors from across the globe remain available throughout the entirety of the service period.
Buffet des Continents is widely recognized for its massive scale and extensive variety of international dishes, making it a popular choice for large families, groups, and celebrations. While many patrons appreciate the abundance of options, from seafood and sushi to grilled meats and desserts, experiences regarding food quality are mixed, with some noting that dishes can occasionally be salty, overcooked, or lacking in freshness. The restaurant is consistently described as a loud, bustling environment, and the popularity of the location often leads to long wait times, especially during weekends and holidays, as reservations are not accepted. Service standards vary significantly; while some guests enjoy friendly and attentive interactions, others report difficulty getting water refills or having plates cleared. Furthermore, concerns have been raised regarding the behavior of unsupervised children at food stations and inconsistent enforcement of policies regarding proof of age for children eating free. Despite these challenges, many diners find that the overall value and diverse selection offer a satisfying experience for those seeking an all-you-can-eat meal.
Beau service aux tables, prix raisonnables pour le buffet. Les sushis étaient super frais ce que j'ai bien aimé & la nourriture très bonne en général!! Seul chose qui m'a fait enlevé une étoile est le fait que j'aurais aimé plus de variété de d'autres cultures pour vraiment tester de nouvelles choses moins connues
I absolutely love this place. This wasn't my first time at Buffet des Continents in Brossard, but it was my first time going for brunch, & honestly it was a great experience as always.
There's always a lot of people, but the restaurant is so big that even if there's a line, you usually don't have to wait too long. Yesterday we did end up waiting about an hour, but honestly that wasn't surprising at all since it was Mother's Day… & we were also a group of 12 people!
The food is always delicious, & obviously there's a huge variety of options. Like the name says, they have food from different parts of the world. Sometimes I wish I had a bigger stomach because I always leave wanting to try more things, but there's only so much food I can fit 😂
Even though it's a buffet, I think it's important to serve yourself carefully because wasting food isn't nice. I personally like going in rounds & taking small portions of the things I enjoy as I keep exploring the buffet.
Yesterday I had some wontons with a peanut sauce that were AMAZING. I also ate General Tao, cucumber & avocado sushi (I don't eat seafood), & a vegetable soup that was honestly delicious.
I really don't have anything bad to say. The staff is always friendly & attentive. They constantly come by to refill your water & remove plates you're no longer using.
The only little thing I don't love is the ice cream 😅 Even though it's supposed to be different flavors, somehow it always tastes the same to me haha.
Overall, I definitely recommend this place if you enjoy buffets & want a lot of variety.
Great place. Our first time back since before the 2020 lockdown nightmare. We waited about 15 minutes in line before getting a seat. Everyone has to wash their hands before being seated which was slightly reassuring. The food selection is really varied. There is something for everyone to enjoy. The food all seemed fresh & the bins were never empty for more than a couple minutes. Some of the selections were a bit too salty for my taste, but that isn't a deal breaker. My favorites had to be the Greek style pork fillets, the frog legs, & the cheesy garlic bread. The dessert selection was just as satisfying. Kids 12 & under eat free (1 free kid per adult) but you need to bring your child's Medicare card as proof of age.
We spent about $150 for 2 adults, 1 teen, & 1 kid under 12 for free. We didn't get drinks or coffees. Expect a noisy experience with that many people in one space. Lots of kids screaming, some birthday songs coming from different tables, & the food area was a bit crowded at the more popular selections like the sushi or ice cream bar.

I went on a Sunday evening for the open buffet. I showed up 40 minutes before opening & the line-up was already full up to the street & another huge side line-up from the left side until the other side door of the mall. This is how crowded & popular this buffet restaurant is. In total it took me roughly an hour wait until i finally got in & got a table. Payment is always advanced. I think they do this cause they lately used to witness a lot of eat & run-away cases. So i guess now they make everyone pay in advance. Menus & food were very good & fresh & delicious. Sushis were well prepared & in great quantity. The smoked & grilled meat sections also were very good. The sea food menus (shrimps, crab legs & black small sea oysters) were good however the crab legs were small a bit & not fresh & i noticed crab legs were very very salty. crab legs used to be better than that. Other than that, they have 3 kinds of pizzas, also chicken breasts & rice was good. french fries were good also. You get for every dollar you spent there, I really enjoyed my time there, I stayed for roughly an hour & a half once inside. I ate 7 full plates + another dessert plate, I was so full. Prepare yourself to spend at least 2 to 3 hours there between line-up waiting & eating inside. But in overall, it's a great experience. I found the entrance ticket (40$ + taxes/person ) a bit expensive overall but you really get to enjoy your time especially if you show up with family & kids. I had wonderful experience. Atmosphere is great, place is very clean, menus are fresh, delicious & always buffet is very clean. I totally recommend this place especially for young & small families. A great place to go out on week-ends.
A lot of variety of meat, seafood, sushi, soup pho noodles, pasta, pizza, dessert, salad, & fried stuff, they have steak, rosbif, smoked meat, chicken, roasted porc, its a lot of meat, if you go on a monday or tuesday, you have less wait than if you go thursday, friday, Saturday. I recommend you try at least once :)
Kids friendly & family friendly. Its more high class than vichy & lastanza. But have as much & even more food than them. I surprisingly find it a nice place to go, & price is affordable. & for a buffet, its much more affordable than jardin de seoul, korean bbq grill, hot pot, sushi bar close by etc.
Buffet Des Continents truly impressed me with the amazing variety of dishes from so many different countries. There are plenty of halal chicken & beef options , which I really appreciated-just make sure you don't accidentally grab the frog legs thinking they're tiny chicken pieces 😄.
The place is budget-friendly, & the staff is very warm & welcoming. I loved the sushi & live steak station where you can have your steak cooked just the way you like it. The desserts & salads were excellent, & the fish dishes were surprisingly good too.
Overall, a great dining experience with something for everyone. Highly recommended!
Le Buffet des Continents s'est forgé une réputation enviable en tant que destination de choix pour les amateurs de buffets internationaux. L'expérience est remarquable dès l'arrivée, l'atmosphère est vaste & conviviale, parfait pour les grands rassemblements, les familles ou les dîners entre amis.
La renommée de cet établissement repose sur la qualité & la diversité exceptionnelles de sa cuisine. Il ne s'agit pas d'un simple buffet, mais d'une véritable exploration culinaire. Les stations thématiques sont un régal pour les yeux & les papilles, avec des plats qui voyagent à travers le monde. Vous trouverez un comptoir asiatique proposant des sushis frais & des woks préparés à la minute, un coin italien avec des pizzas savoureuses & des pâtes faites maison, & bien sûr, un espace québécois avec des classiques réconfortants. Les fruits de mer sont frais & abondants, & la section des rôtisseries est toujours une source de délices, avec des viandes tendres & juteuses.
I would come here again. The place has a nice layout & design & there were tons of food to try. Be prepared to wait for a table if you go on a weekend.
Some foods such as sushi & pizza were mediocre while other foods were so good I had to get seconds & thirds such as the snow crabs & the cheeseburger sliders which tasted just like mcdonalds cheeseburgers.
Great family buffet with for assorted foodies
They're probably the biggest walk around buffet when it comes to choice, they have a sushi bar , a steak bar, soups , salads, seafood (including crab legs), burgers, poutine, & lots more including a well packed dessert section.
Good atmosphere , im a bit of a picky eater but I know what the best things are so I get my moneys worth everytime now 😌

Creme glacée périmée, goût que restée au chaud...Ça a comme tourné.
Crevettes trop cuites sabloneuses
Long macaronis pas super
Riz frit chinois bof c'était froid
Egg roll pas bon & froid
Puree pomme de terre tellement liquide & vraiment pas goûteuse.
Viande grillée marinade avec un arrière gout je n'ai même pas terminé ma bouchée.
Soupe wonton avait une odeur bizarre
Vraiment déçus de notre souper d'anniversaire de mariage.
J'ai tout vomi mon repas. Ça a vraiment gâché ma soirée. En plus, mon conjoint m'avait prévenu de choisir un autre resto. C'est la dernière fois que j'y mets les pieds.
J'ai demandé une place tranquille ou il y a que des deux places pour pas avoir d'enfants. J'en ai 5 à la maison! Je voulais de la tranquillité. Mais ils ont raccordé des tables quelques secondes après nous avoir placé & il y avait plein d'enfants, sachant qu'il y avait plusieurs tables plus loins libres où il y avait déjà des familles.
Je n'ai jamais aussi laissé d'assiettes remplies. C'est du gaspillage & c'était vraiment pas appétissant. Un désastres
Bon points: serveuse très souriante & gentille. Sushis étaient tres bon
Pudding chômeur tres bon
Poulet général tao tres bon
