They had a decent amount of options for food and desserts, and everything seemed pretty fresh. There were one or two things that weren't our favorite, but generally any one of the many chicken dishes were pretty good. And they had a decent amount of options for veggies, and some seafood. The fish was good. They had multiple soup options including wonton, egg drop, and hot and sour. They have some factory baked desserts, at least 4 different puddings, and soft serve ice cream! Prices are pretty reasonable, we also saw people come in for the pay by the pound option to take to go.

There was an option for crab legs ($20 extra) and you could tell some cooks to make a bowl of pasta. What made this bad was quality and quantity. If there had been more options or better quality, it would've been nice. Cakes were hard on the outside, pie was just canned pie filling with a premade crust cracker, Mexican foods were dry and rank below store bought premade. Service was good- for the single waitress working at dinner time. She was stressed and struggling. Ambiance was fine. It was clean and looked like it was a better quality place than it was.

We parked in a further away lot, team the slide out, put on the air and tucked our dog inside safely. Almost immediately, a shuttle bus came by and whisked us to the casino. We got in line for club cards and soon were seated at the one-armed bandits :) Before long, I was up over $100. Time to cash out. We cashed out and then had lunch in their fast food cafe. All in all, a great visit. If in the area again, I'm sure we'd stop and game a bit.

We sat together and 4 ordered menu items that said if you buy one, second is free. Still could only get one. And if you got that, our 10 percent coupons couldn't be used. So for six of us who thought we were getting a deal, we got one free bagel (restaurant chose which bogo to honor) off our $110 breakfast bill. We weren't allowed separate checks, so we each pulled out cash for our portions but they don't take cash. Wow!! So one of us had to charge $100+ and collect cash from the rest. And they charged a credit card fee, we think. Talked to manager about all the rules and got our favorite response, "there is NOTHING we can do." We will never go back but it's a resort so they don't care. If this restaurant was in a non-resort area, they'd be out of biz in a year. Food was average at best -- resort prices.

It was the first time for us going there and the food wasn't bad... but some of the food on the buffet was cold. I got stuff for the Mongolian grill they have there to have the cook stir-fry it for me... he cooked/stir-fried what I gave him on the plate, but it wasn't cooked all the way through. Also, I LOVE hot mustard, and I like to mix it into my food, but all they had was packets of hot mustard that were jellied and tasted horrible. They need to make fresh hot mustard, NOT packets!!! I lived in Florida for 20 years, so I know good crawdads and what they should taste like, I also know how to cook them with good seasonings... but the crawdads/crabs they had on the buffet were horrible tasting and over cooked!!! My biggest complaint would be no fresh "Hot Mustard"... and the cook on the Mongolian grill needs to learn how to stir-fry.

I always try to explain my review having more stars than perhaps it would in reality, if that makes…read moresense. This is a Chinese buffet. It is an all you can eat buffet. For people who have not had actual primo, well prepared Asian cuisine, I've never seen anyone not enjoy and tell me that they absolutely loved every single dish. This is what it is. It's only $14 for lunch, and if you went to one of the commercial burger places, you would expect that amount on just a regular basket with fries, drink and a burger. Here people get to eat as much as they want. Having explained this, I hope that you understand why I give the stars that I do for this place. It's because they were clean and there was nothing wrong with any of the dishes that I saw or tried . I particularly only like a few. I might like more if the food was hotter temperature wise. I have been to Asian buffets, particularly in Cheboygan and their food was a lot hotter, even though it's in the hot water baths or however, they're heating it. I prefer to have my food served hotter for many reasons. It is more tasty, it kills bacteria and any food problems like that. I'm sure that if they have these heated too high, it also breaks down the vegetables quickly. But I feel that this is a necessary requirement with the buffet food especially. I do love the hibachi style being available. You can add whatever you want, and the hibachi chef will fry it and add whatever sauces you'd like so that's my favorite. That's the main reason I go here, but the reason my sister always insist on returning Here is because "she likes to pig out". I see that many people do. That's what these buffets are. I think in the past like in the 70s they actually used to even put smorgasbord on the sign now everyone knew what that meant. I find that the servers are nice and it's always a very friendly ambience here so that along with the cleanliness and the fact that people look extremely happy that they "got to pig out" I give this place a four.. and really why would I come and eat again and again at a place that I didn't feel was a safe safe or sufficient lunch? I would not.
