Buffet Chinois Fu Lam

Had dinner here the other night for a family celebration. I ordinarily do not patronize Chinese buffet style eateries. Was happy to see that they have a short order cook on a grill as part of the buffet, ala Mongolian BBQ style. The offerings aren’t as plentiful though you may select fresh veggies from the salad bar for your stir fry. Sushi was good, was pleased to see this as well. The rest of the buffet was a hodge podge including pizza and French fries next to the pot stickers and egg rolls. The dessert offerings looked picked over and tired. Atmosphere typical for this type of establishment. I would probably not return if given a choice. Sometimes you go along with the prevailing sentiment.

the food was fine on a weekend but disastrous on a week day. the weekend price is just 2 $ above that of the weekday but the food is much better. less than average customer service.

Was there the other night, and since its reopening, I have found that the food is at least fine. Good variety, and with the sushi, sashimi, and rolls, (and delicious crab legs!) it works. The weekend price is a bit higher than I would like, but it’s not horrible, by any stretch.
I will be back, with normal expectations, and I will be satisfied. Very standard.
3 stars for the food minus 1 star for repeated visits where staff gave old bills to avoid declaring all revenue and taxes. Disgusting. If you charge me tax, you remit the tax. It’s simple, really.

Ah, Fu Lam Frig
What do you expect? This is your typical chinese food buffet.
Don’t come with expectations of golden dragons and culinary masterpieces. Just come with the munchies!
Friendly staff and tasty food

C’est tellement mauvais comme place, ça n’a aucun bon sens. En revanche, c’est rapide et vraiment pas cher. J’aime un truc là-​bas et c’est le bar à faire sauté ce qu’on veut. Ils ont donc un «chef» qui sauté dans un wok une protéine qu’on choisit (Poulet, Boeuf, Crevette) et des légumes. Le hic c’Est que c’est souvent une cuisson discutable. C’est juste un style qui est resté dans les années 90’s et qui n’a jamais vieillit. J’imagine que c’est en partie à cause du côté sécurisant d’un buffet chinois «américain» mais reste que c’est Bof!

Very disappointed. Fu Lam used to offer good food at a reasonable cost but while the cost is still reasonable, what passes as food is not. The last few orders were disasters. The General Tao chicken was tough as nails, the Won Ton was tasteless and everything else was either overcooked or undercooked. Fu Lam was one of our favourite places for take out as well as dining in but I’m afraid we’ve struck them off our list. One bad meal can be excused, two gives you cause for pause but three? That’s pushing the envelope beyond what we find to be acceptable.

Nice place if you are hungry and in a hurry!
Really no waiting to sit down and eat.
Big choice of items too.
Fu Lam also pays proper attention to keeping the hot food hot, the cold food cold and a serving utensil in each dish.
The buffet is always kept clean and is replenished regularly.
While not always the most authentic Chinese food, the menu items are always fresh and properly prepared.
Try the chicken wings, they’re really good.

If you value life… never NEVER eat at buffet Fu Lam. I am appalled at what is served at buffet Fu Lam. The items served at buffet Fu Lam barley passes for «Americanized» Chinese food. Nothing seems fresh at Fu Lam. Please avoid eating here, eat somewhere else even McDonald’s will do.
