Restaurant Le Sieur de Laviolette

The food is good with a wide variety but the lay-out is so cramped, it's hard to get to the food. $22 CAD so with tip and tax about 30$ CAD. No refills on soft drinks! Four buses there when we were so a jam everywhere.

My partner brought me here for dinner during our stay in Trois-Rivières. The buffet had the usual Chinese buffet fare of springrolls, fried rice, et. al., as well as some Québécois favortes like poutine. They do offer fish as well as two kinds of meat (ham and beef). The buffet really has a good mix to offer. The same can also be said for their desserts. The service was friendly and efficient. My favorite, though, has got to be the chunks of smoked salmon along side some capers and sliced red onions--you can find these at the salad section.

The decor needs some love, the staff needs to smile just a bit more. The choices are good, very good. The food is hot and all looks clean and attended to mostly. Some containers were almost empty, so customers did not want the " older crunchy bits" buffet staff should be more present. Also the meat carving station was not attended - I waited however it was getting long ( 1-2 minutes) I put my plate down to start cutting a piece myself and a staff came running ! NO .... I was like ... breath I even told her to ( breath ). The staff served me the meet on the carving stationThe food was good, salads fresh ...desserts were lacking but ok.I would come back ... to give another chance.

My only complaint is there are no refills on your drink.. unless its coffee or hot tea. Now, on to the nitty gritty.. this place was great! By far had the most to offer everyone.It had several types of fish, red meat, pork choices and even frogs legs. Egg rolls, pizza, wings, veggies and so much more. Hot fresh and tasty too. The ice cream is amazing.. and you can scoop it yourself... please try the bread pudding..... outstanding flavor.. it was other choices of dessert, but hands down this was my favorite.. no complaints on the food, staff or the overall establishment... very good ... our bus had 42 on board and we were in and out like a breeze.

We dined with a bus load of tourists and were promptly seated and greeted. The buffet has something for everyone and the food is tasty and hot. The choices are excellent, seafood, meat, salads, jello, pasta, soup, and more. Be sure to leave room for the dessert buffet!
