Royal Buffet sur Merignac

Quick and friendly welcome; we were seated near the buffet as requested. The space between our table and the others was adequate. The noise level was also acceptable; I'm not rating it because I read the reviews beforehand, and it didn't bother me at all—I could hear my family talking perfectly. The service staff were impeccable. Aperitif: nothing to complain about except that the whisky was the only one without ice, and it was very warm. Buffet: wow! Clean, fresh, well-presented, always full, and a great selection! 🫪🫪🥰 It was impossible for the four of us to try everything, but what we did eat was delicious. Of course, tastes and preferences vary, and cooking methods are subjective, but everything we ate was well-prepared and fresh. The restrooms are very good, but I would suggest cleaning them more often, as people lack courtesy. As we were leaving, and this is the only negative point, the person at the checkout was not pleasant. Really not, maybe that's just her personality, but I wouldn't put her here.

A wonderful discovery! A great experience! Everything was delicious. It's very good. Lots of choices.

A very nice restaurant, but quite noisy. It's a shame the parking lot is so small for such a large restaurant, unless you park at the Carrefour parking lot. There's a wide selection and the food is quite good. It's a shame to have such beautiful shellfish but no decent mayonnaise to go with them.

I loved the decor. Lots of choices. Top-notch seafood.

Very good, lots of choice, and a fun atmosphere on weekends with karaoke!!

So many delicious seafood choices!

Very good, clean and pleasant restaurant

This restaurant consists of one vast, open-plan room. Just inside the entrance, a small cascading stream greets visitors before they encounter a member of the staff. While the staff's apparent lack of fluency in French can't be faulted for not offering a warm welcome, their shy smile is always appreciated. This is a true all-inclusive restaurant. From the starter and main course with its side dish to the vegetables and desserts, everything is unlimited! This is worth noting, as the price of a set lunch on weekends is currently €25.90 in September, which is no surprise. Drinks and coffee are available for an additional charge. During the week, the restaurant seems to be packed at lunchtime (the price is €17.90). Regardless of the dish, the choice is vast, but the emphasis is on Asian specialties. Dishes that require it are kept warm by a permanent heating system located above each station. Despite this, unfortunately, once on the plate, the food doesn't always stay warm. Microwave ovens are available to address this issue. On the other hand, fresh bread is available 🙂. This is very rare in Asian restaurants. The restaurant also offers karaoke on Saturday nights. A small stage is provided for this entertainment. Discreetly, but constantly, there are eyes watching over you… ☹️ There are also private function rooms located in a separate area that I wasn't able to access. These can be reserved in advance. Regarding the taste of the food… despite impeccable hygiene, the taste is only acceptable thanks to the sauces. Are these defrosted products with sauces added? Friendly clientele. Good atmosphere.

Beautiful room. An amazing buffet. First time I've seen so many different shrimp dishes. Everything a foodie could want. We'll be back! 😁

Absolutely fantastic! 👌 I definitely plan to come back, even though I'm from Angoulême.
