Reviews for Buffet des Continents reflect a highly polarized dining experience. Many visitors appreciate the wide variety of dishes, the international theme, and the family-friendly atmosphere, noting that it is an ideal spot for large groups and children. However, consistency remains a significant issue, with many guests reporting that food quality can be hit-or-miss, ranging from fresh and tasty to bland, stale, or poorly maintained. Service experiences vary drastically, with some staff described as professional and kind, while others are criticized for being rude, inattentive, or overwhelmed during busy periods. Concerns regarding cleanliness, long wait times, and the lack of reservation options on weekends are recurring themes. While some diners consider it a good value for the quantity of food offered, others feel the pricing is too high for the perceived quality, leading to a divide between those who enjoy the abundance and those who are disappointed by the operational standards.
L'ambiance était bien le service était impeccable.
Si vous partez la prochaine au buffet essayez le roti de boeuf & demander d'être servi par Jonathan dans la meat section.
Très bon service,une personne gentil souriante.
Merci Jonathan pour ton service & pour tes petites explications concernant les sauces displayed.
The general buffet is okay with a decent amount of food & pretty tasty (not healthy).
The meat is very average.
The dessert are GREAT.
The vybe with the flag & the international theme is cool.
The price as everything else in Canada is getting higher & higher.
Ps: I love going on Sunday, it's full of beautiful black queens 😍🤪👌👸🏾

Ce n'est plus le buffet des continents d'avant la COVID. Encore beaucoup de choix, mais la qualité a beaucoup diminué. Le restaurant est très propre mais le service laisse un peu a désirer. On a du attendre longtemps avant qu'on remplisse nos verres d'eau.
De plus, on nous fait payer d'avance & on nous impose un pourboire de base. Difficile de déterminer le pourboire qu'on désire laisser avant même d'être entré dans le restaurant.
Autant j'aimais bien ce resto avant, autant je crois bien y être allé pour la dernière fois. Dommage, le concept était intéressant.
Par quoi on commence pour ce souper du jour de l'an?. On arrive pour l'ouverture pour éviter d'attendre trop longtemps & pour que le buffet soit propre.
Malgré cela, nourriture froide ( moules, asiatique, )peu de goût ….la musique est beaucoup trop forte & répétitive. On en a pas besoin, tellement y a de monde .
& la cerise sur le sundae, les gens ( client.es) malpropres, aux tables du buffet!!!!!
Y en a qui mange en se servant, ca se touche la face & prend ensuite les cuillères de service , les enfants qui sont lâché lousse & taponne, le monsieur qui remet le contenu de son assiette dans le plat de service du réchaud …& la médaille va , à la fille qui était aux tables de desserts & qui avait les deux mains dans ses jeans…. Sur ses fesses. Calvaire!!!!!
& tout cela pour un prix exorbitant de $90,00 pour 2.
Bonne année 2026…..ON VA PU LA!!!
Arrivés un 31 décembre à 18h, mettons qu'il y en avait du monde. On a attendu autour de 40 minutes mais c'est passé vite. Le buffet? Faut jouer le jeu & c'est comme ça qu'on se régale. Pour ma part, j'ai beaucoup aimé les calmars frits délicatement citronnés & croquants, la soupe aux carottes & la crêpe flambée bleuets-pêche-crème glacée à la vanille & crème fouettée .
L'ambiance était conviviale, un parfait moment en famille !
Great place to brunch for a group experience. The decor is well thought of, but the food can be better. The workers...haft are super nice. Those bringing the food at the buffet are rude, grumpy, & with attitude. Like if you're disturbing their breathing process by being there.
-You need to pay in advance & the price is including the taxes.
- There's a lot of parking at the back of the building & also the north side of it.
- Both entrance, the one from entrance door & back parking lot door, are wheelchair friendly.
- Price is good, but only give you access to the buffet, drinks are separate charges.
- Close to highways
Finally, the food smell won't stuck on your clothes, as it's well vented.
Oh, & its free for children under 12 years old. 😀🤩
This buffet has become an absolute joke. Compared to my last visit, almost everything is missing. The options are so minimal now that it barely qualifies as a buffet anymore. Large sections were empty, items were not refilled, & the variety was pathetic.
The food was extremely bad - tasteless, poorly cooked, & clearly not fresh. Some dishes looked like they had been sitting there for hours. Nothing was enjoyable, nothing tasted right, & honestly, some items were hard to even eat.
For the price they charge, this experience is borderline insulting. Quality, quantity, & standards have completely collapsed. This place has clearly cut corners everywhere - food, variety, & overall experience.
I regret coming back. I will never return, & I strongly warn others: avoid this buffet unless you want to waste your money & leave hungry & disappointed.
