O Planete sur Venissieux

The restaurant offers a decent selection of dishes, although the variety is a bit more limited than in some other establishments I've tried. However, it's still enough to find something you like. The service is very pleasant: the staff is helpful and polite, and we were seen quickly, which was much appreciated. The setting is also very nice, although I found it a little dark. As for the atmosphere, the noise level can sometimes be a bit high due to some customers, but this doesn't detract from the quality of the restaurant. Overall, I ate well and had a good time. It's a good place, even if, in my opinion, the experience falls a little short of the very "incredible" image you see on some TikToks or Reels.

We hadn't been back since the change, so we came for lunch on a Saturday with my daughter, around 1:40 pm. When we arrived, no one told us that the wok station closed at 2:00 pm. We took our time eating our appetizers and sushi. Around 2:05 pm, we went to the wok station to get our food, but the chef was already cleaning up and practically scolded me, saying the wok station was closed. I didn't appreciate the manner at all, especially since no one had warned us before we sat down. Otherwise, I liked the new decor and the new layout of the buffet. The sushi and shrimp were good. However, the rest seemed rather dry, but it was also the end of service, which might explain it. I was left a little unsatisfied, as I didn't get to try the grilled/wok dishes that I usually enjoy in this type of restaurant. When I went to pay, I pointed out that the wok restaurant closed at 2 PM. The cashier told me that wasn't normal and that it usually closed at 2:30 PM… so I didn't really understand the situation. Mixed feelings.

A very wide selection, and it's very good and all-you-can-eat 👌

Really, really good with an incredible setting

To begin with, finding parking is very difficult, and despite the establishment being relatively clean inside, it's far too noisy and crowded. The dishes are replenished too slowly, resulting in many shortcomings in service. It's on the lower end of average for an all-you-can-eat buffet, but the prices are very affordable.

The food is top-notch and, with the new decor, the restaurant is even more pleasant, more comfortable, and there is less noise even when the room is full.

A very good buffet, the decor is especially beautiful.

The food was decent for an all-you-can-eat buffet, and the halal meat was great for meals with friends! Be aware that reservations are recommended, especially on Saturday nights (and don't arrive late or you risk losing your table and having to wait like those without reservations). However, due to the rush, the staff (except for the bar/cashier) were not very friendly, and the atmosphere was very noisy. The interior door handles and toilet flush mechanisms were half broken. While waiting for a table, I noticed four young people (one boy and three girls) on Saturday evening between 7:30 and 8:00 PM who appeared to be pickpockets. (First, the dark-haired boy in a t-shirt entered, then a blonde girl in a beige/khaki puffer jacket, and then the two other brunettes. The first girl left after five minutes, the other two easily after 15 minutes, and the boy remained in the restaurant for at least 30 minutes and seemed to have managed to steal something.) Other people behind me also had the impression that these individuals were pickpockets.

+ However, there was a large quantity and variety of dishes, the staff was very friendly and smiling, and the prices were reasonable. - The hygiene of the toilets needs improvement.

I was really expecting less given the wide variety of food, but I have to admit that almost everything was very good, so there you go. +1 for the friendliness of the servers and the decor of the dining room. -1 for the cleanliness of the restrooms.
