Buffalo Grill - Bellerive-sur-Allier

My wife and I ordered fish and chips. It was almost inedible. Service was fair. My suggestion? Find any other restaurant

Came here on a Sunday evening whilst my wife and I were in Vichy for the Ironman events going on over the weekend. It was our last night and my wife had completed the half the day before. We were both tired and wanted something near our hotel so decided to opt for this and forego the mixed reviews. However, we wish we hadn’t; it was bad, very bad! I had a chilli con carne, which was functional and mediocre at best; my wife though opted for hake which not only looked terrible but, according to my wife, was dry and over cooked. Furthermore, it actually looked as if five minutes before it arrived on our table it had been slipped out of a bag. No effort with presentation either, which might have redeemed the dish slightly, and very little flavour. We should have returned it, but both of us were just too tired to get into it with the staff, who were the only redeeming feature of the place. We both persevered with an exceptionally bad meal, paid, and then made our thoughts known to the staff on our way out (who were apologetic . In defence of the place, the staff were swift, friendly and attentive. The burgers looked pretty good, so maybe we chose badly, and the place was buzzing with French people, so perhaps we missed something. Also, they gave you a free side salad, bread and some popcorn(? . Otherwise, do yourself a favour and do what we should’ve done and made the effort to walk into town. We won’t be back if we’re ever in the area again...

The restaurant was nearly full at 12:15 and later you will need to queue for having a able during lunch. Service is fast and the staff professional. Food is not gastronomic in this restaurant but convenient to fill your stomach at a correct price.

We arrived around 8:20 and left at 11:00. The girls are nice, but the orders don't come in. it is always time for endless waiting.

A quick and mega dinner, cheap and served with a smile.On the other hand, too dark in ambience ...!!!!
