    Great salad bar
    Robert B.

    The buffet is back 7 days a week at Don Laughlin's Riverside Resort in Laughlin, Nevada - and for really inexpensive prices! The variety of food is great and the servers are friendly and attentive. Great view of the Colorado River as you dine. Miss the old Vegas buffets at a bargain price? Go to Laughlin and visit the Riverside Resort. When you visit the buffet, you will you will love it and the entire resort. The remaining buffets in Vegas are no bargain. This one in Laughlin is.

    Enjoyed the buffet and the snap crab legs. It's always nice to make a crab salad. There of course CNN other options, shrimp, Mexican, corn on the cob, also a dessert bar. Stop by different options on different days. The staff was accommodating we had someone with a walker. The service was quick and the team was very customer service oriented. The river view is always great when eating so relaxing.

    The view.

    OMG where to begin? This buffet is absolutely awful, and that's being kind. The selection is quite small and the cost owithout a players card is $25.00. My first reaction as I went through the selections was I'll have some of the yellow, and don't get cheap on me. I'm not kidding several of the dishes were unidentifiable, they were just gross looking. As for the dishes I tried, the lasagna literally tasted like a cheap frozen lasagna. The spaghetti sauce for the spaghetti was absolutely disgusting, it was like eating sugar. The Chinese dishes were so gross. The only two dishes that were even remotely edible were the carved roast beef, and the pesto sauce ravioli. My server however was very pleasant and was working hard. Oh and the salad bar was a joke. Avoid this monstrosity at all costs. I was given a table by the window however, so at least my view was nice.

    If you wants a good breakfast to not come here. And my standards for a buffet is low to start with. To start with the one star was the service was good. More of a continental breakfast. But, not a good one. Do not come here if you are not happy paying $19 for a mediocre continental breakfast. Hometown buffet is mediocre. But, it's so much better than this place. I did not find one hot food. Warm at best. No omelette bar. Or any other kind of food station Eggs were watery. Ham was tasteless and soaking in water. Bacon was good the biscuits and gravy the biscuit the gravy I guarantee you came out of a can. No flavor. Needed pepper. Mash potatoes and gravy was out of a box. Look how empty the place is at 12:30 on a Saturday

    Only Buffet Left in Laughlin Nevada. Turned out Tasty.

    Visited 2/25/2023 With this being the last Buffet in Laughlin we weren't expecting much. Boy was I wrong. Turned out the food and service were very good. This night the Buffet was extremely loaded with tasty items. We will definitely eat here again sometime.

    Went in for their brunch buffet which runs from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and it was breakfast plus a whole bunch of lunch items if you wanted to skip to that including Asian Mexican barbecue salads sandwiches and more. The breakfast was pretty simple eggs bacon potatoes pancakes french toast omelettes. The food was okay much better than my meal yesterday at the Riverview restaurant. Filled up pretty quick but hold on was a relaxing meal before the Long Haul back down to the valley.

My family and I revisited this location after a couple of years and it's still the best! We came for a breakfast/brunch appointment and left extremely happy with our experience. There's stations for eggs & steak, breakfast potatoes/home fries, an omelette maker, and fresh fruit. I spotted tasty bacon and all the breakfast classics, I think they had some waffles too! Additionally, I noticed they had chilaquiles and other Mexican items like beans and rice. I loved the dessert bar! I had pumpkin pie in the morning, yes, I'm that guy! I also had a delicious powdered donut and a bite of chocolate cake because it's never too early for dessert. They had several donut options, pies, and other treats for all ages, they even had a soft serve machine! The staff were happy and very friendly. All the patrons seemed to be enjoying their food, there was a nice mix of people. I always appreciate an inclusive buffet where everyone feels respected and welcome. The ambiance was mild, we had a nice look out the window of the Colorado River and a grassy area. I spotted MANY tables and booths inside. Groups of any size are welcome to enjoy. My only suggestion is that they hire more staff, some of the employees seemed overworked and need support! Note: The price for a group of 3 people was around $55 and some change (Drinks are included in the price). Also, this buffet is located behind the Avi's casino floor.

But we went for breakfast. Bring your players card if you have one! You get a discount. The omelet bar was our favorite. It was all fresh and delicious. They had a lot of options from Mexican to pancakes and waffles to chicken fried steak! And all of it was so fresh and hot! Totally recommend this place for breakfast! You can ask for river view too! They are very accommodating! Thank you for the great service!

Also, major shoutout to our servers Mary G, Brady W, and Matthew M. They handled our big group like pros... drinks magically refilled, plates disappearing on cue, and coffee arriving right when dessert started to set in. Solid food, solid service, and a solid excuse to hop on over into a movie theater after. Definitely a great evening!!

As far as I am concerned, this is the best Mexican food on either side of the Colorado. Starting with the freshly made corn and flour tortillas (I usually eat flour tortillas, but at El Charro, I will choose corn tortillas 99.9% of the time.) The chips are terrific with two salsas brought to the table. The Choriqueso is a cheesy deliciousness. I am not really a pozole fan, but here, it is very good and really has an awesome taste. I always get their menudo. Lots of honey comb and a good ratio of corn to meat. For me, the fact that I can get pata is great because it is becoming harder to find many restaurants that will provide you with that delicacy. I always alternate between their different tacos and this time I got a tripa taco. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it is great here. Well fried and crispy and with their hotter salsa spread over it, with fresh tortilla, I am in heaven. From my first trip to this restaurant, I have always loved the atmosphere of the restaurant. It truly feels like a great little Mexican restaurant and I am happy to see they have expanded. I envy all you folks who live in Bullhead City and have easy access to this restaurant. I live in Phoenix and no trip to Laughlin is complete without a stop to El Charro.

Our server answered all of our questions and allowed us all to make special orders. My mother-in-law is obsessed with chili relleno and she said this place did them perfectly. The Mexican rice is very tasty as well. The quesadilla was very cheesy and packed with flavor. But the carnitas and steak fajitas were disappointing. There was not enough char or sizzle, the dish was flavorless despite having all the ingredients that should make it really delicious. The refried beans didn't have enough salt, guac was plain, the soup that comes with the entree was watery and the side salad wasn't appetizing. The restaurant is quite large and was nicely decorated. Everything seemed clean.
