| - The Buffet La Bonne Carte is on the fifth floor of the Casino de Montreal. (To get there, take the city bus 167X from the Jean-Drapeau subway stop. When you get there, take the elevator, the floor plan will make your head spin more than a ride at nearby amusement park La Ronde).
Quality, yes. Reasonable prices? If $25.95 is reasonable for a buffet. Moderately priced for the quality delivered. I must say they lost money on me.
The menu is mostly French and American, even Quebecois "pudding chomeur" (OK, so it's an in-joke). Lots of Asian tidbits when I was there (e.g., Dim Sum and lychee). Quite well done, and the frult was fine (one of the main problems with the budget-priced buffets). I can't think of a single dish that disappointed. I was so full, the dessert pastries were wasted on me. Or, rather I was wasted on an overdose of food.
The (Canadian dollars) "prix fixe" is $15.95 (lunch), $25.95 (dinner MON-THU) , $34.95 (dinner FRI/SAT ) and $19.95 (brunch). I paid $25.95 (dinner SUN).
Service is grand and friendly. Leave a tip, since Quebecers as a whole are supposedly poor tippers.
