Located inside the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino in Payson, this restaurant is a diner's gem. They have a wide variety of entrees & meals on their menu. There were four of us having lunch together & three of us had the soup & salad bar while the fourth had a patty melt sandwich & cole slaw. Our waitress was awesome & took very good care of us, keeping drinks refilled & checking on us, always smiling & enjoying herself. The ambiance here is very homey, comforting, & inviting. Nice place too & I didn't get pictures because it was packed! read more

Cedar Ridge Restaurant - Buffets Near Me - Payson, Arizona

This was our second time having breakfast at Cedar Ridge & it truly did not disappoint. Our server Moira was absolutely fantastic! Her sense of humor & customer service was outstanding. It was a Sunday morning so the restaurant was kind of busy, we waited about 10 minutes to be seated but service did not suffer. Our meals were spot on & delicious. Another great experience thank you! read more

Walked into the clean restaurant and saw a waitress wiping down the table and the salt and pepper shakers. Good sign to me. The waitress took our order and brought our drink shortly after taking order. The breakfast was exactly how we wanted it and tasty. Waitress was great and checked on us. We would go back whenever in the area. Lights were a bit dark for me but not a problem seeing the menu. read more

Basic breakfast at affordable prices! It's convenient to the casino and has ample seating. Seems to be busy during all you can eat fish fry Friday and prime rib Saturdays. There is usually a wait. Check out their daily specials. read more

Horrible food. It was just swamped with grease and no flavor. The fries still tasted frozen.

Breakfast was delicious! Server and food were fast! Refreshing prices, huge servings. Eat here!

Horrible Food selection, absolutely nothing to choose from. 32$ for the buffet but you only get 10$ worth of food. Service was okay, overall trash. read more

The waitstaff was attentive, the Thurs nite prime rib special was flavorful, the salad bar was fresh as were the mixed veggies.

Great food. We were there on St Patty day. We had the special. Corned beef and cabbage with colcollin and shepards pie. It was all very tasty. All you can eat. Excellent service in spite of the fact that they were shorthanded. read more

We've stayed at Mazatzal hotel and casino a few times so we decided to check this place out for my birthday dinner. The buffet was closed by the time we went so we just chose from their dinner menus. I went with the shrimp scampi pasta. I wasn't disappointed. For $2 more you can add the unlimited soup/salad bar. The salad bar was great and had plenty of options along with pasta salad. The soup today was cream of chicken and turkey noodle. There are three options for dessert: chocolate cake, carrot cake, and strawberry shortcake. The servers came out with the slice of cake while singing happy birthday to me. The presentation of the cake wasn't the best but the performance by t staff was a nice t read more

After waiting an hour to be seated at Denny's, ugh we gave up and came to Cedar Ridge. Dang within moments of arriving we were seated, within 10 minutes of ordering we had our food! Molly our server is outstanding! Forget Denny's ya'll and go to Cedar Ridge restaurant. read more

Always a great price for the amount of food you get and the buffet! Lance out waiter was exceptional! The burger is always a go to. Braised ribs is my favorite when they have it, meatloaf, pot roast and open faced Turkey sandwich. I'm hungry again just writing this! The only drawback for me is having to walk through the smoke filled casino where I smell like I smoked a pack when I get home. read more

Had a cheeseburger here yesterday that was good. Today is Taco Tuesday, multiple options from $1-$2. I had the $1.50 shredded chicken tacos that are pretty good and the price is right! The Carnitas taco had to be sent back it was cold inside. read more

Stopped by this casino on our way back to Mesa. Friends of ours had been here previously for the breakfast buffet, and it was very good she stated. We had the Friday buffet - fish. The salad bar was very good. The Mac and cheese was yummy. The white fish was ok, first three or four bites. After that was rubbery and bland. Service was good. He was very attentive. There was a fried fish option, it was ok. Calamari was the best fish option I had. read more

Went for my friends birthday celebration dinner. Had a great server who was very attentive to our table. I ordered the prime rib petite cut medium well with a baked potato. The most of dinner entrees come with the salad and soup bar. The pasta entrees do not but you can add it for a couple dollars more. My meal was so delicious and perfectly cooked. For the environment: it is inside of a casino but is family friendly. When you walk in, the restaurant has plenty of room and the lighting is dim. Everything is clean and organized. I did see private party rooms at the entrance of the restaurant which I thought was nice. The kids menu was a huge success with my nieces. They served a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as an option. She absolutely loved the fact that was even an option( it's her go to meal). read more

Restaurant is located inside the casino. We just wanted soup and salad and this place advertised what we wanted. When we got there it took some time to get someone to set us. No one at cash register. This person acted like we were interrupting something. The person that seated us did so in a hurry. No pleasantries, just here is the menu and away she went. Then our waitress came. Wow what a difference. She was very nice, cheerful and helpful. The place could use a face lift. Not really dirty in any way just worn. This place does get a lot of traffic being at the casino. We had a choice of two soups and both were excellent. The salad was make your own and there was plenty of ingredients to make what you want. This place is definitely a place I will return to for more soup and looking at the menu the food looks to be fairly priced. May have to try their prime or a nice steak. Checking out and paying was about the same as getting seated. Not very outgoing. I would of given 4 stars if the beginning and end had been better. The lady that served us gets 5 stars. OH. I won 12 dollars in the slots. read more

Its sad when buffet is lousy and second waitress is the only one that cares. Food is bland and overdone. We had three kinds of fish & breaded shrimp. Nothing worthwhile. The salad was half filled at 630 Friday night. The desert was no more than 5 pieces of cake and the choice was take it or not. Now we paid $12 each. McDonald's is cheaper but not much else is. As locals in a casino, really put some effort into us coming back. If you are here, maybe but dont stop here on way through read more

I have ate here several times. The food is always good. Service, is hit or miss. They have a wonderful salad bar. We started w/that. Also shared the coconut shrimp. The shrimp come w/a orange marmalade kind of dipping sauce. Very tasty. The dipping sauce was sticky and all over the place, I asked the server for more napkins, and she brings four paper towels, that she got from the kitchen. They use cloth napkins here, are they numbered? Do they have a strict one napkin per person policy? Give me a break!! She finally brings the food, and we ask her for to go boxes right when she delivered the food, we have ordered a lot, and know we are not going to finish. Again, about 10 min. later, she brings them. Now, this restaurant is not in the least busy. She also did not fill our drinks, or check on things at all. read more

Cedar Ridge Restaurant Is Alright We Waited For Our Food, Which Included the following (Chopped Steak Meal) Friend Said It Was Good But The Potatoes Were Bland w/No Flavor (Fettuccine Alfredo) w/Grilled Chicken But Fettuccine Noodles Were Unavailable It Could Of Been More Chicken But It Was Ok. Overall 4/10 #BluePrintMediaTV read more

I decided to do a review of the casino, as I am a local who visits the casino restaurant often - and feel that some of the reviews here are uncalled for. One reviewer said the calamari was just OK. Hmmm, it seems strange to me that this person had calamari, as I WOULD ORDER it if it was ever offered. Seems this was a fake review for sure. We frequent this restaurant for lunches or dinners, and at various times in the day. When the restaurant is very busy, we might wait for our food order perhaps 15 minutes, but rarely - not a half hour! Soup and salad bar is fresh, filling and a good value received. Dinner items and special salads are large and fully satisfy one's hunger. You won't be disappointed. Also, both the casino and the restaurant were remodeled in early 2019. read more

Very disappointed in our experience at Cedar Ridge. First, we waited about 10-15 minutes just to be acknowledged then seated during a non busy time of day. We were able to put in our drink order (nothing fancy, just sodas) and waited for another 10 mins. After ordering, we helped ourselves to the salad bar and snacked on crackers while waiting on our combo appetizer... a platter of fried foods that shouldn't take long to get out, took another half hour. By the time our entrees arrived, we were already agitated and perhaps our server could tell, as he seemed to avoid us altogether. So much for your plaques and awards you display in your lobby. read more

Just left without being served. After being seated, we waited to be acknowledged by staff over 10 minutes. Pointed out the slow service and filthy conditions to mgr who said "oh well, we're busy and short staffed". With 5 workers standing doing nothing, I would think you could remove the dead bugs and rat hair from the booth edge. Maybe manage the lazy staff or clean something yourself read more

They call this fine dining. The waiter took 5 minutes to get to us after being seated. The place was pretty empty. I ordered the prime rib, the specialty here, before knowing the truth. While ordering I asked if the broccoli was fresh. The waiter said no. So I ordered a baked potato instead. Then I was told I could go get my salad from the salad bar. A buffet is NOT fine dining. The cauliflower was turning black. The prime rib came out and looked disgusting. It tasted gross too. I voiced my concerns to the Manager, who in turn said "We don't do fine dining" looking annoyed at me. She did take it off the bill, that's the only thing they did right here. Stay away and cook at home! ! read more

Worst customer service I have ever encountered in any restaurant 20+mins not even asked about what we wanted for drinks I have three young boys and I had to get up to start putting our jackets on for anybody to even look at us management was going to ignore me until I walked up I wouldn't even give this restaurant a star read more

We waited a long time at our table before someone actually spoke to us. When we were finally approached we were greeted with "what you want to eat?" Not a good morning, not a are you ready to order. We had to ask what the special was because she wasn't voluntarily giving up the information. We felt like we were bothering her. We got the French toast special, the food wasn't the best I've had but it definitely wasn't the worst. The prices are cheap and the food is decent. Our server Molly was very unpleasant. I would return for dinner and ask for a different server. read more

I hate to say it but it isn't that hard to make a sandwich. They got my deli sandwich wrong not once but twice. Our waitress, who seemed like she didn't want to be there, said that the cook was new. Yet when we got our check I could clearly see that she had also rang it in wrong. read more

Lunch Buffet was awesome. Green Chile and pork soup was the best soup I've had in a while. My compliments to the chef. Food was all fresh and well prepared. My server was very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend there lunch buffet read more

I was going to give this buffet only 4 stars because i thought the dessert selection was a little weak, but decided the food was all 5 star,and they deserve a 5 star rating (put my sweet tooth aside). Well Rand H. and myself took a morning drive up there and it is a very scenic drive taking about a hour and a half from south mountain area. The restaurant is very comfortable and well decorated.Well i started with chili mac soup and it was probably the best soup i have ever had it was great. After that i had to try the other soup (southwestern beef) and it was real good to.they also had a wide array of salad items including cold cuts,potato salad,chopped egg ,pickled beets to name just a few. The main entrees included roast turkey ,stuffing, roast chicken,Italian sausage,mashed potatoes and gravy,sweet potatoes,green beans and a vegetable medley . All were very good. Then it was off to the dessert section ,they had a chocolate cake,white cake, pudding,jello,fruit,and heavenly hash.All of this made for a solid 5 star review. YUMM!!!!!!! read more

Horrible food! Definitely over priced for the quality of the food. I got a pesto pasta and it was so bad. Even the pasta looked bad. I will not be eating here again. The only thing that was good was the bread they gave us before our meal. read more

This place is amazing!!! Exceptional service, and amazing food for the price!! You can tell the food is fresh and not frozen like some other reviewers would have you believe. It is also very clean as I watched a busser clean the tables with a cleaning solution, other places use old towels. Would definitely recommend!!! read more

Came at 2:50 buffet offered till 3pm but took 10 min to seat. Then told us we where to late

I went with the idea of having a nice fish dinner for fish fry Friday. The evening started with a hostess walking up to the counter looking at there phone then walking away, not even acknowledging myself or my brother. Then a couple minutes later after she stopped talking with a colleague she returned grabbing 2 menus and walking away asking if we wanted a table or booth. After seating us at a table, she set the menus down and walked away as fast as she could. As for the food, The baked fish was quite good and the mashed potatoes and gravy were good too. The fried fish was not bad but could have been better. The fried popcorn shrimp looked a bit over cooked but I chanced it anyway. I was unable to eat a single shrimp. They were so hard I could not crack them open with my teeth. When dropped it hit my plate and I thought it had chipped my plate. The veggies were cooked well and had good flavor as well. But the real bummer for the evening was my server. He rarely came to my table for a refill and when he finally returned (remember it was not a busy time at all and there were several servers going back and forth) he got me a refill of Arnold palmer ( its half tea and half lemonade) I got a glass of lemonade with a shot of tea in it and 3/4 of my glass was filled with ice. I took 2-3 drinks and my glass was empty again (aside from the full glass of ice). I have eaten here time and time again hoping for better quality of food and service, but I am constantly given higher food cost, lower quality of food and staff who don't care about the costumer. And even when I receive such horrible service I am expected not only to pay my bill but also give 20% of my tickets Total order to this bad server as a reward? I don't mind tipping if the food is good, and the service is acceptable, but I hate it when I am required to tip a who is either bad at there job or just doesn't care about the people he is waiting on. Needless to say I wish I would have just got some foot food to take home would have tested better and gotten far superior service. If your looking. For a nice dinner, and want decent service I suggest diamond point shadows. read more
