    Yummy onion rings
    Mindi B.

    Needed a quick to go order tonight. The service was excellent and very helpful staff. The buffalo chicken wrap was very tasty. Onion rings were cooked perfectly.

    If there was a lower score I'd choose that. I ordered the pancake breakfast. In the past it's been excellent. The chefs working this evening 2/10 really don't care about what they are serving. I ordered scrambled eggs. They came out looking like shredded cooked hard egg. I showed them and said can you scramble them. Same result. Awful.

    Open 24/7 its almost like Dennys! The food is reasonably priced and the service is fast. They provide large cups - 24 ounces to be exact. Just wish the sodas were refillable. The dining area is clean and spacious. Located next to the sound stage and just off the casino floor, its a great spot to grab a quick bite without a wait. The sandwhiches are pretty good. My wife enjoyed their grilled cheese and I liked the club. The chili is yummy and filling. The fries come with all combos and are always fresh and crispy - never soggy. The night I dropped in, the pizza maker was down for maintenance... bummer. Remember to tip well! I'll probably dine here again when visiting. When you don't want a buffet or a fancy steak, Cactus is the place to be. You can thank me later.

    Chicken tenders and onion rings
    Rhea A.

    Located in the Harrah's Ak-Chin Hotel & Casino, the Copper Cactus Grill seemed like a Godsend after the long drive to Maricopa in the middle of the dessert. Keyword: seemed. The menu was pretty standard-burgers, corn dogs, chicken tenders and so forth. The wait time for our food was unacceptable. There weren't that many people ahead of us waiting for their food but some of the customers that ordered after us got their food before us. They had a condiment counter which was obviously neglected by their employees because the counter was sticky and covered in ketchup and God only knows what else. There are a few tables to sit at right in front of the register but they are placed so close together that I got the gist of our table neighbor's life story in just that one sitting. The food was beyond greasy and if it did have any flavor, it was masked in the grease. My simple warning is: don't waste your precious time on their mediocre carnival-like, overpriced food.

    Double Cheese Burger Loaded

    Food is decent if they give you what you ordered that is. We placed an order for two burgers loaded and a chicken bacon ranch sandwhich for breakfast we could share. They charged us for all of this plus 2 bottles of water well they don't sell water and the cashier was like a deer caught in the headlights how do you charge someone for an item you don't sell? We made it easy since they couldn't figure out how to give us our change back, must be that core math their teaching these kids now a days, to make it easy for everyone we just had them add some cookies to the order in exchange. We waited and our # kept getting passed up but we knew it would take a bit so no worries there. We get our food and they didn't give us the chicken sandwich. The guy was rude and unhappy we're like we paid for it and even though we showed him we did he said well it's not on my receipt. Instead of arguing because we were already irritated I just told him well I guess u guys need the cash more than we need the damn sandwhich. This is the reason I hardly tip anymore when u have an attitude and don't like your job freaking leave!

    I love going to this restaurant for a quick lunch the staff is so friendly and the food is always so good. Thank you Harrah A fun place also to get something to eat while your enjoying of bingo

    This is my food just sitting with no employee around.
    Mandy B.

    This was the worst service. One employee was washing trays while the food just piled up. There were at least 7 orders backed up with people waiting everywhere. When the gentleman in the back said something to her she responded that she was almost done. I couldn't believe the lack of any sort of urgency. People were upset who were waiting on one item. The food was ok, but I would not spend another dime of my money on sub par service. Slow and rude are a terrible combination.

It's very clean, and there is so much light in the room! No booths--all tables and a bar as well as a gift shop off to the side. Joanne was super sweet and kept our glasses filled. She came back often to check on us. It was nice to chat with someone so kind and genuine. I wish more people were like her. The food is good. My sister and I both ordered the Blt. She got fruit and I got a side salad with fresh spinach and veggies. We also had the Triple Bogie appetizer with onion rings, fries, and a quesadilla. Some things to know: Monday through Friday, this place is open until 5 pm. On Saturday and Sunday, it's open until 7 There is free wifi. Lots to love about this hidden gem, and we'll definitely be returning!

Everyone got something different, so for my part, I tried the caprese bruschetta and their Sunday Sauce pasta. I paired my meal with their Ginger mule mockcktail. The bruschetta was soooo good. The bread was incredibly flavorful and the feta, tomato, and balsamic married perfectly. The bread was also the perfect texture - not too crunchy, not too soft. Fresh cheese and cherry tomatoes provided the most delicious topping! My pasta was also really good. Their meat sauce was so savory and delicious, and the noodles (flat, wide - I forget the name!) were cooked to perfection. I'm glad I also got a side of toast - it was a slight upcharge ($1.50) but worth it for the quality. My Ginger mule was kind of meh, unfortunately. I think I was expecting it to be sweeter, and it was pretty bitter. The service was beyond outstanding. Our server was attentive, answered questions, and made sure our water glasses were never empty. Huge props to him. After our meal, the owner even came over and checked in. Very nice guy. They even gave my boyfriend a slice of cheesecake for his birthday for free. The noise level wasn't awful, either, and that was very appreciated as a Deafie. I was able to see everyone at the table (we were in a rounded booth) and the ambient noise wasn't distracting at all. Awesome experience, better food, phenomenal service.

The only reason they get three stars is because our server took the food that wasn't eaten off of the tab without being asked. We walked in and sat ourselves, as the sign said to do, and there was one person working - bartending and taking orders. She saw us sit and came over quickly, but it took a really long time to get our drinks, once ordered. Not her fault, she was alone. Still not ideal though. When my mimosa arrived, it was warm and I ended up asking for a glass of ice to cool it down. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and asked for my side of hashbrowns to be extra crispy (spoiler alert, they were not). When my food arrived, everything on the plate was lukewarm and underdone. The gravy was too cool and congealed and inedible, the hashbrowns were limp and barely browned, the eggs were rubber. When the server checked on us, I asked for my food to be reheated and when it came back, only the biscuit had been slightly warmed. Everything else came back colder than when I sent it back. The server was nice about everything and comped my meal because I didn't eat it - pictured is what I received after it came back from the kitchen the second time. I just wasn't impressed. The drink was warm, the food was cold. Nothing was the right temperature. Severely understaffed. Good on the server we had for being so nice about everything, but I doubt I'll be back.

The staff was friendly and helpful throughout. Our ticket included a bbq buffet lunch at the restaurant afterwards, where they also gave awards. Since I don't eat meat, I ordered at the restaurant. I ordered the picado with shrimp which comes with rice, lettuce, grilled onions, jalapeños, bell peppers, tomatoes, cheese, and chipotle ranch. It was pretty tasty and had a nice kick! I was grateful they had some pescatarian options. I also enjoyed a glass of bubbly to celebrate our game. Service was excellent. The course was in good shape and was fun and challenging to play. It's not super close to me, but I would like to play at The Duke again!

    Don't let this name fool you!!!…read more "The Meltdown" is just a Denny's trying to scam people into over paying for their crappy grilled sandwiches! I ordered from them in casa grande today using the Uber eats app and did a pick up order. Upon arrival to the address I was confused because all I seen was a Denny's. Then it popped up and said to go in and say it's "Uber eats" I was thinking at first ok maybe they are sharing a building space... NOPE!!! It is totally 100% Denny's melts and they are basically taking their crappy sandwiches like "the bird" describing it as being on Artisan bread with Sun dried tomatoes and charging more for it. Then when you get it it's nothing like that and smothered in crappy oil and grease. I avoid Denny's at all costs due to having IBS and they oil they use irritates my condition, so this really pissed me off cause if I had known it was actually Denny's food I would never have ordered from there. They literally just stuck a sticker that said "meltdown" on the top of the to go Denny's box and charged 34 dollars for two combos that on the Denny's menu should have been about 24 bucks tops. It's a total fucking scam! Anytime you see "the meltdown" just remember it's Denny's trying to screw you out of your money for their basic crappy food. I will definitely NEVER eat at a Denny's or "the meltdown" ever again. Denny's do better and stop scamming people out of their hard earned money for your crappy ass food.
