Mike Cygnus reviewed Buffalo Grill Meaux (Nanteuil Les Meaux)
I don’t normally do food reviews but I have to write something for this one. Before I continue I would like to state that we come from an Indian background. I knew the name was Buffalo Grill so I didn’t expect to see a lot of colored people, but I did not expect to feel like I was in Texas in 1957 either.
I went to Buffalo Grill in the city of Meaux France with my wife and 4 month old baby. As soon as we entered the restaurant we found a table and sat down. It was half full so there were guests but it seemed like an ordinary day. Everything felt good until the nightmare slowly began.
We waited for the waitress to come to our table but nothing happened. She had already seen us but didn’t care. She served everyone else except us. Some time goes by, 10 min. nothing happens, 20 min. nothing happens, after 30 min. of waiting my wife kindly asks the waitress if we can order and she looks surprised and then take down our order. After a while we receive the food in horrible condition. The steak was not well cooked, there was blood coming out when you stuck your fork in it. The fries were cold and to finish it off, we didn’t receive any kind of sauce at all, not even mayo or ketchup. I tried to get her attention but she was ignoring me so I had to get up and look for her to get what we wanted.
We were the only colored people in the restaurant and I’m normally very careful when judging other people but this experience felt really uncomfortable. The waitress did everything to show us that we were not welcome here. I’m giving Buffalo Grill in Meaux 1 star because of very bad service and very bad food as well. If you have a different skin colour than white then find another place to eat.
Ray Walsh reviewed Ital'Burger
Stumbled upon this place and it found itself in the right place at the right time for us.
We worked it out after dinner; the name Ital’Burger referenced the Pizza Bread Bun, which I must say was a surprise and a nice spin on your typical burger. The patty wasn’t anything special, usual regular ground beef (no chuck or brisket mixed in) but it was ample, well cooked and juicy, and the accompaniment were all Italian style with mozzarella cheese, roasted red peppers and a slice of Bresola. in all it made for a burger than I wouldn’t ordinarily choose but thoroughly enjoyed and left me satisfied.
I found the staff to be very welcoming and attentive, we had children and they ensured they didn’t wait too long for food. Ambience and decor was cool with movie themes throughout.
In all a present experience at a reasonable price and I would recommend.
