It was 9pm. They said the screw must have fallen from the lights of above. That most definitely was not the case. My brother said that kind of screw did not come from those lights and when he checked it did not make sense. They also did not remove the platter off the food bar from where the screw was found immediately, they kept it there. After that experience and how they handle it, I would say the buffet is probably not that sanitary. I do not recommend!

You know when someone dares you to do something, and you know it's a bad idea to try it but you do…read moreit anyway? That was kind of the feeling I got when I decided to eat here. Clearly there's no shortage of horrible reviews and that was part of the apprehension before my meal. But, as someone who's visited countless casinos and eaten at a long list of buffets, I had to check it out. The verdict? Well, in summation this place is an odd mix of aspiration and execution. In many ways, it's kind of endearing to see people here work SO hard busting tables, making conversation with guests and trying to do their best to replicate a casino buffet experience. On the other hand, it's clear this place is simply not up to the task in terms of execution due to various reasons. Is it inexperience? Is it lack of professional management? Is it lack of a good chef or seasoned cooks? Who knows. But it's clear they don't have the capacity to execute this level of dining operation. Now, you're probably wondering, how was the food? Well, most of the food was terrible. I mentioned during my dinner that this feels like an elementary school hot lunch buffet from the 1980's. A lot of the food reminded me of the stuff I used to eat in public school in NYC during that time. The pizza literally tasted like the pizza I used to get when I was in school, which honestly I wouldn't ever pay real money for now. The salad bar was generally flaccid like a 80 year old man desperately in need of Viagra. While there was a reasonable amount of offerings, none of the ingredients were of decent quality which is surprising given the great local produce in the Saratoga area. The Asian section was incredibly poor, though the lo mein was okay. The cook in charge of the area at least took a lot of time making sure the food was always properly stocked. The Italian section was greasy and featured some limp looking meatballs and overly creamy (and oddly tasteless) pasta. Even the American/entree section somehow managed to make items like mashed potatoes and corn taste extremely bland. I do agree with a previous reviewer that for $16 you shouldn't come in expecting a culinary revelation, but I also think for basics like mashed potatoes you can still make it taste better than what you'd get from a Hungry Man frozen dinner meal. One other note - stay away from the fried shrimp. It was laughably bad. The breading was not only tasteless but so thick that you'd think it was a fried sock that you were eating. The one saving grace of the whole experience was that I managed to go on Friday night, which means it's steak night! The cook was busting his ass cooking tons of sirloin steaks (some to order) and keeping the steak area fully stocked. That was great because the other meats they featured that night, including the pork loin, tasted like dried leather. Fortunately the steaks were not nearly as horrible and actually tasted like those steaks we used to get at Sizzler. Now Sizzler steaks aren't exactly top notch steaks, but it's a heck of a lot better than the other stuff they had that night. I also give credit to the staff for being energetic and really working hard to keep the steaks coming because clearly that's what most people were having that evening. The desserts were extremely mediocre. Only the whoopie pie was decent. The key lime tart was notably bad and tasted as bad as it looked. The fruits there were okay, but the oranges they had were a sad lot. At least the strawberries were somewhat okay, especially if you douse it in cream since they weren't particularly sweet. Our waiter was also fantastic. He was diligent and made sure to check on us frequently and kept our drinks topped off at all times. He definitely deserved the nice tip we left him. In many ways, his efforts were symbolic of the whole experience. This place aims to try and do what the guys in Vegas (or to a limited degree Atlantic City) do. But it's clear they have a ton of work to do because if not for the passable steaks they served on that special Friday promotion ... there literally is nothing there to eat that is worth paying $16 for. You're better off driving to town and eating from any of the countless good restaurants on the main drag. However, despite the 1 star for the food ... I definitely give props to the service which was 2 stars ... giving this place a middling 3 starts overall.

It appears that this buffet is heading downhill fast! They are charging $34 for 2 of us and we were…read morereally disappointed in the selection and quality of the food! They did have peel and eat shrimp which were good. Tonight there was a catfish dish available, jalapeño and corn bread coated... terrible idea, stick to the Simple Cajun seasoning and it would be passable. I tried the fried calamari and it was very rubbery. There was a top round offered, and that with the real mashed potatoes was good. The selections for Asian foods were horrible and everything tasted the same. My wife had the Split Pea Soup, one of our favorite soups and she said it was good. The desert selection was good, and the few items I tried were good. I know buffets aren't the culinary delight for many people. I enjoy buffets because of the selections available, I never know exactly what is going to get my taste buds going. For a Friday night the restaurant was empty, almost immediately seating and the casino had a fair sized crowd. I remember going years ago and you'd wait on line to be seated and the food was tasty. I've been to Fortunes upstairs and that is in a class by itself.... always good.... but it was closed because of a private party.... Darn..... BTW, the service was good!

This place is easily the worst buffet I've encountered so far. I tried just about everything, mostly out of curiosity and mild scientific concern. Somehow even the Diet Coke tasted off, which I didn't know was possible. It was like carbonation mixed with disappointment. Most of the food had the flavor profile of warm air. At a certain point it got so bad I just started laughing. The egg roll deserves special recognition. It was greasy, soggy, and somehow burned on the bottom at the same time, which feels like a culinary achievement. The cabbage inside had a smell that reminded me of cleaning out the spice cabinet at grandma's house after it had sat untouched for twenty years. Everything on the buffet looked old. And when fresh trays came out... they also somehow looked old. I'm not sure how they're bending time like that, but it's impressive. The only positive was the service. The staff were smiling, friendly, and seemed genuinely happy as they calmly poisoned the dining room one customer at a time. Needless to say, I won't be back.

We waited for over an hour and saw our delivery time was updated for 9:35-9:45. At 9:34pm we get an email stating that Mealeo cancelled the order, so now we are left with no food and now no option to go anywhere else since everywhere is closed. Luckily, the owners of Lucky Peking were kind enough to call me and ask if we canceled the order. I explained that we had not and that Mealeo had. They were also very upset that happened (through no fault of their own) and then offered to deliver it themselves even though at this point they were now closed and had also been waiting around for the Mealeo driver to arrive. So they took my payment over the phone and the chef drove our order over, across town and after hours. I don't know how many other restaurants would do that. Thank you very, very much!

Returned in September only to have the worst service ever. We sat there waiting for a drink for about 20 minutes while the staff were doing shots. We decided to have a drink to see if the service would get better. However, it did not. We waited 15 minutes after asking for our bill. Ordered some takeout on November 28, We ordered chicken wings, a tossed salad and buffalo french fries. The wings were definitely a triple fried, there wasn't any meat on the bones because it was fried off. The salad was welted and may as well have been just a little lettuce with two cucumbers, and that was it. The cucumbers were wilted. The french fries were soggy as to be expected for takeout, but there was nothing fresh about anything that we ordered. Will not be ordering again. We received a phone call 20 minutes after our order asking when we were going to pick it up because apparently they were closing early due to no business. Just not the best experience or what we were hoping for to get this place a third chance. Three times and that's it!

It's great to see this old place open and I wish they would clean it up a bit and fix the mediocre renovations that were done.
