It's the kind of problem every restaurateur dreams of: too many customers, too quickly. Since opening on May 15, Les Grands Buffets Lyonnais have experienced a delicious wave of visitors worthy of the biggest culinary tides in Lyon. In just four days, no less than 8,000 reservations were recorded. A tidal wave of eager forks that prompted the team to react swiftly and effectively. This Tuesday morning, it was through a social media announcement that the news broke: no more lunch service on weekdays, at least for a little while.

No more lunch service on weekdays until further notice
Officially, it's all about ensuring impeccable service quality that meets the enthusiasm generated. Unofficially, it's really proof that a great concept can quickly get overwhelmed by its own success. The result: lunchtime on weekdays is off. But don't worry, food lovers: dinner service is still on from Monday to Saturday, just like weekend brunch! And for those clever folks who already made a reservation for a Sunday night, rest assured that commitments will be honored until June 5th.

Goal: Preserve the quality of service and dishes
No need to worry about frustrated stomachs: the lunch service should be back "in a few weeks," the team promises, without specifying a date. Maybe it’s time to recover from this first wave of forkfuls. Moral of the story: sometimes it’s better to serve a little less to delight a lot more.
