Buffet des Continents fonctionne comme une destination de restauration internationale à grande échelle proposant un vaste éventail de cuisines mondiales réparties dans de multiples stations thématiques. L’établissement met en avant une sélection étendue de plats chauds et froids allant des mets canadiens traditionnels aux diverses préparations de pâtes italiennes et aux spécialités de fruits de mer. Les clients circulent dans un espace ouvert où la nourriture est continuellement renouvelée pour garantir la fraîcheur sur l’ensemble des comptoirs de service. Les sections spécialisées incluent fréquemment des zones dédiées aux viandes découpées, aux salades fraîches et à une grande variété de desserts préparés pour un service à haut débit. L’infrastructure favorise un environnement décontracté axé sur la diversité, permettant aux convives de goûter à plusieurs traditions culinaires lors d’une seule visite. Ce modèle opérationnel privilégie l’accessibilité et le volume pour assurer une disponibilité constante des saveurs mondiales.
Le Buffet des Continents est largement reconnu comme une destination populaire pour les familles et les grands groupes à la recherche d'une vaste variété de cuisines internationales, allant des sushis et fruits de mer aux viandes rôties et plats réconfortants. Bien que de nombreux clients apprécient le grand choix, la propreté des lieux et le personnel accueillant, les expériences concernant la qualité de la nourriture, le niveau sonore et les temps d'attente varient considérablement. Certains convives trouvent les plats frais et délicieux, tandis que d'autres signalent des assaisonnements inégaux, comme un excès de sel, ou un manque de variété dans certaines sections. L'établissement est réputé pour son atmosphère animée, entraînant souvent de longues files d'attente aux heures de pointe, et certains visiteurs ont exprimé leur frustration face au prépaiement obligatoire des pourboires ou au manque de réactivité du personnel de service. Dans l'ensemble, il est fréquemment décrit comme un excellent rapport qualité-prix pour ceux qui privilégient la quantité et la variété, bien que les attentes doivent être ajustées pour refléter un contexte de buffet à fort achalandage plutôt qu'une restauration fine.
My grandpa got covid. He's not dead or anything. But I think the fact that little kids are putting their sticky hands into all the foods, then taking them out, putting them back in & the fact that there are no places to wash hands (pls put hand sanitizer on each table I beg you, as well as gloves for when people pick their foods). Not the buffet's fault though. Food was mid. I mean it was a buffet. Going to Au Vieux Duluth next.
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.
Food was really good even my little kid enjoyed it.. except some server was just standing around. Needed some water & we need to stand up with our glass to asked.. aside from that food was amazing very very good..

I dont think I will come back.
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.
Very good experience today, the food tastes a lot better than few months ago, we had this delicious smoke salmon cream-cheese saltines, juicy flavorful mini burgers, pizzas, they even have popcorn & freshly made cotton candy to take away! Price is very good, if you have little kids who eat only plain pasta/ desserts/ cheese, it's the best place to go. Children under 12 are free! Will visit there more frequently now.
Atmosphere is super cute gives Las Vegas buffet vibes. This place used to be a lot better before Covid & I am sad to see how it's changed.
I think there is a big issue with parents, bringing their kids here & letting them touch everything & causes severe hygiene issues. Guys please control your kids it's embarrassing 😭
The kids behaviour is at the dessert station was very scary & not up to health code whatsoever.
I keep seeing repeated reviews on Google maps of this place giving customers food poisoning amongst a few comments & stories from people I know in person getting sick from this place so I will not be returning. I have not personally gotten sick from this place, but I feel due to the price increase, quality decrease, & behaviour of unruly guests, & children that it is not a safe restaurant to return to if you are prudent about your health.
Also, we brought my cousin there who is obviously a child & they asked us for an ID for her, but she is a child & does not carry around a wallet so we had to pay for her. Really disappointed.
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.
