Went to the Monarch Casino buffet to celebrate a big milestone birthday for a very good friend, and I'm happy to report that the man left happier than a kid on Christmas morning - with a pile of crab legs and lobster that would make a cardiologist nervous. We were fortunate enough to score some extra vouchers, but for those who don't know, the buffet includes a voucher for one lobster and two sets of crab legs.  Beyond the seafood, the buffet has just about everything you could possibly want - Asian, Mexican, Italian, and plenty more. It's a little overwhelming, in the best possible "I need 10 plates because I refuse to make decisions" kind of way. They definitely accommodated our large group and did so promptly. Did we all walk away extremely full? Abso-effin-lutely. Pro tip, courtesy of our bowels taking a hit: bring Pepto unless you're good at portion control. Because apparently, "I'll just have a little more" is how we all ended up in a digestive situation. read more

Seasons Buffet is Lodge Casino's main restaurant. They are on the 2nd floor There is a fast casual place, Jake's near the north entrance. Seasons offers breakfast, lunch and dinner + weekend brunch. I had a free buffet from the casino. After playing several slot machines at a sister casino and at the Lodge, I came for lunch. I showed my players card to validate the buffet. The regular price is $18.99 + tax. I was seated promptly and gave my beverage order of iced tea. They offer a range of hot & cold dishes + desserts. Everything was fresh. I ate well. My iced tea kept getting refilled. read more

This is difficult to rate, because the crab legs alone are worth the entire visit! WOW! They were absolutely delicious. You have to ask for the crab legs and they're so generous by giving you 4 clusters with nearby drawn butter for your enjoyment. The crab tasted clean, fresh, and sweet. I would come back for this reason! The service was also very attentive and everyone was so kind that helped us. Outside of that, this buffet isn't anything magical. It has all of the basics, perhaps a bit overcooked on most of the dishes... not a luxurious experience otherwise. It's one of those buffets that "does the trick" and you go for the crab. read more

Seasons Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Black Hawk, Colorado

This place is garbage the food out of a dumpster is better. The drinking rule here alone is enough to make you want to leave. If you come Make sure you set your own 20minute timer after you finish your drink. Really rude management. Just overall bad place. Also don't forget that drinks are not included in youre fee to get in. Ps. The buckets on the table are not for beer read more

Not changing my review. Still very good breakfast buffet. A few things not on their website. Open for breakfast during the week at 8am Price $12.99 for breakfast not including tax. It changes every time I go. LOL... read more

All you can eat crab legs! And if you get a players card, you get $10 off the buffet price. So if you ask me, $50 is worth it! The server was nice and cleared our table often and provided refills. I would definitely eat here again, if I had the opportunity. read more

Seasons Buffet - AYCE crab legs and pho! - Buffets Near Me - Black Hawk, Colorado

This is probably the best part of The Lodge Casino. The buffet tables were full of freshly prepared food, that were consistently refilled. There was both breakfast and lunch stations, including Mexican and Chinese food, as well as a meat carving station, a salad bar, a pizza station, a full dessert station full of cakes, pies, eclairs, and a self serve soft ice cream machine. Descent price per person that included bottomless drink refills. Consider me impressed. read more

Pretty solid buffet with international options. Crab legs on the weekend. Prime rib during the week. My prime rib was rare both times I attempted to get a medium cut. This isn't the greatest quality but I'm not sure what people expect from reasonably priced all you can eat. Service is ok, typical for a buffet - intermittent and not that friendly but good enough. read more

Post-covid buffet offerings in Black Hawk and Central City are slim, especially if you want a reasonable price point. Seasons still exists and that's positive. It's still the best deal in town, but honestly it's not a great one. We still go occasionally, but when we do we aim for the weekday breakfast buffet only as that's the best price. The weekend buffets do offer more, but the weekend brunch price point is comparable to the champagne buffet that Ameristar used to offer, only with far fewer and poorer quality food choices and limited champagne. The casinos have gotten frustratingly cheap and its evident here. I would consider other breakfast options first. read more

For the price of the buffet it's awful. We started getting free buffet coupons and it's not even worth my time. The desserts probably the best. The crab legs are so small and it takes forever because they are so small to get any meat. You wind up throwing a lot of food away and I think it's a big waste. I know the crab legs are small wherever you go it's probably a bad sign that people keep buying them. The buffet is not worth the money or the time even if it's free. The service is fantastic and the ambience is your typical Casino scene. read more

Crazy expensive, like over $50 for one. If you don't like crab legs then I'd suggest not to go. It would be more feasible if you had the option to not do the all you can eat crab legs for half the cost. Prime rib was good. Asked for New York strip and got another cut of prime rib. Server was attentive and kept our drinks full. read more

The Lunch Buffet is impossible to beat at $18.99!.........Where can you best this bang for The Buck!?

5 Star for the value! Great selection of Really Good quality and tasting food, selection of American, Asian, Mexican, Italian Seafood! We had a tasty lunch and Dan, our server was friendly (whole team) and SO helpful ...we will be back :) LC read more

The food was wonderful! We discovered this buffet early in our vacation and returned two more times. Mexican food bar with tacos, fajitas, burritos, rice and beans. Asian bar with lo mein, sweet and sour pork, teriyaki chicken, and crab rangoons. Their BBQ brisket was delicious. Ham and italian sausage were among the entrees. And on Friday, they had coconut butterfly shrimp! Salad and fruit bars and even charcuterie. The desserts alone are worth the trip. Cheesecake, brownies, soft serve ice cream, and their pies are to die for. Pretty dining room. The wait staff was attentive with refillable non alcoholic drinks. read more

Seasons Buffet is literally just like the Hometown Buffet (for lunch at least). Quality of food was pretty low, only thing that was okay was the ribs. The desserts were all dry and way too sweet, it tasted like store brought cakes. Staff was attentive enough to pass my standards. We were seated right away. Waiter came over at least twice to check in on us over the hour we were there. So would I come here again? No unless it is try out the dinner buffet read more

If you're going for the crab - then, yes that's decent. All of the other food is questionable at best. Very small selection, and honestly not tasty. My husband had a cut of meat that was gray on the inside. We had higher hopes for the price, but were very let down. Wasted $100+ between two people and ended up getting chicken strips at one of the grab and go places that were much better. read more

5 STARS?! Really? Yes. Seasons Buffet has all these low star reviews because everyone's an Effing Gourmet food critique. Here's a dose of reality people, as of August 2023, at $24 per person, Seasons is a perfectly good breakfast buffet to enjoy in Black Hawk. Do they have endless plates of crab legs at Sunday brunch? NO. Are the pastries handmade every morning by a French trained pastry chef? NO. But the food is good (not great), decently executed and very good service. Certainly worthy of 3-4 stars. But compare Seasons to the Monarch which is MORE THAN DOUBLE the price and also not 'knock your socks of fantastic' and this is the best value for a good breakfast buffet close to the big resorts in Black Hawk. Go to Seasons, reasonably manage your expectations, take your time to sit and enjoy and you won't be disappointed. read more

Been to this buffet a few times and it continues to go downhill over the years. $18 for lunch. Looks can be deceiving. There were a lot of choices: Mexican, Asian, American, Salad Bar, Desserts, and Pho station...but the food was better at my college cafeteria. Only carving station had pre-cut kielbasa and Italian sausage, which were probably the best items - pretty hard to mess that up. Fried chicken was cold and dry, ribs were dry, potstickers soggy, orange chicken mostly batter, shrimp fettuccini and jalapeño poppers not very memorable. Blueberry cheesecake, soft serve and cannoli for dessert - not worth the calories. Server gave us iced tea, and then disappeared for the remainder of our lunch. Dirty Plates sat forever. Save your money read more

So went in for the ALL You Can Eat Crab Legs. They were just soaked in salt. AVOID..so not worth the money for the poor quality seafood!

For the price you pay it isn't much of an experience and most of the food is truly sub-par. Not much of an experiment either. My husband enjoyed it more because he ate the lobster and crab legs, my "allotted" portions as well, as I can't eat seafood. Everything was just pretty standard which wouldn't bother me if it wasn't for the 55$ per person price coupled with servers who barely spoke English enough to understand our needs and slow to get you what you asked for. I wouldn't go back it it was on my dime, even if someone paid for me I would strongly encourage going somewhere else. read more

Very rude waiters. The men have no customer service skills. The young ladies that were checking in people were very kind but the others were not. Food was alright read more

This place is the only place in black hawk offering unlimited crab legs as of 1/24/21. All the other places (Isle, Monarch, Ameristar, etc) are offering by lb or closed. read more

Seasons Buffet - Unlimited crab legs - Buffets Near Me - Black Hawk, Colorado

Food not even average for a buffet . Chowder cold , not warm , not room temp , literally cold . The rest if the food barely replenished

The service was good here but not so much the food. The prime rib was so over cooked you couldn't even tell what it was. The pastas were fairly flavorless and cold by the time you got back to your table. The crab legs were the only saving grace, very good and well cooked. Nothing worth the $42 paid for a weekend visit. read more

Excellent buffet. They are also doing a fine job of social distancing and serving you in the buffet line. We went when there wasn't too many people there so it was quite sparse with people anyway. The turkey is so moist and tender. The other buffet items are also very good. The crab legs were a little hard to peel but it had been a very long time since we had any they were still quite good. Definitely will return from time to time while we are in the are this season. read more

We haven't eaten here for a couple months. We wondered why there was no line on a Sunday evening. The restaurant was dirty. Much of the hot food was luke warm or cold. The quality has really gone downhill. We paid $98 for 2 people, without tip. Very disappointed. Won't be back. read more

Unfortunately I can't go here often. My waist line just would not be able to handle it. But every few months I try to make it up and play some craps along with getting a buffet. I have never been disappointed at the Lodge Casino. The food is always tasty and the value is great. Maybe I have just been lucky after reading other peoples reviews. But I have never had a bad experience. The staff is very polite and everything is very clean. It is very nice to be able to go out and know you will not be disappointed. I would just like to give a big shout out to the staff of the Lodge Casino and all the workers at the Seasons Buffet. read more

Seasons Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Black Hawk, Colorado

I just want to start off with I have been to quite a few casino's buffets because that is usually what they give you as a comp. We were driving on the peak to peak parkway for fun since never have been there before. Pleasant surprised when we came across a town fu of giant casinos. Of course, we got out. Time went by and decided eating needed to take place. The Friday night cost for the buffet was $24.95. This seem normal for casino buffet costs. It took quite awhile to be seated at 7pm as all the tables were full with slow turn over. Once we were sat down our amazing server I wish I could remember her name. She has long hair with bangs and a giant beautiful smile. This woman was working so hard in her area that drinks were always full and tables cleared of used plates. The buffet was small, and not impressed with the selection. The other thing which is why it was busy were the Alaskan snow crab. I would give it two stars. The service from our waitress was the whole reason for four stars. She was incredible with how crazy busy it was. read more

The food was good but the manager was fantastic. We had a birthday dinner for my husband. Knowing that we wouldn't be able to seat such a large party together, we explained that to the person at the register. The manager stepped in and got most us in a row of tables. It was amazing to watch her work her magic. I am so appreciative! read more

Visited the lodge for an overnight stay. Gambled for 5 hrs...dollar and 5 dollar slots. Hoping to get some food comps. Decided to head to the buffet @ 9:30 pm. The guide in the room stated it was open until 11 on weekends. Figured we had plenty of time. Paid 80.00 for 2 tickets. Led to our seats and were then told "hurry up because we close at 10." Turns out that was plenty of time as the food was absolutely disgusting. Although we might stay again but we will definitely be brown bagging it. The reviews for White Buffalo grill and Jake's are just as bad. One would figure that a place like the Lodge would serve better food!! Very dissatisfied!!!! read more

First time there and was not pleased with the results. Arrived at 9 and was charged $90 for 2 and when we sat down we were told to eat fast because they were closing. Food was cold and crab legs over cooked. Entire experience was TERRIBLE. Will never ever go there again read more

This review is not directed towards Seasons buffet at The Lodge employees. The manager resolved my issue by refunding my buffet. Rather, this review is to address the subpar food at the buffet. The salad dressing and lettuce were frozen solid. The meats and everything under the "warmers" were cold and you could tell that meats had been sitting out for hours. I feared food poisoning. With so many other food options and buffets offered in the Blackhawk and Central city area, Seasons Buffet needs to step up its game. read more

They're doing a great job considering how hard it is to hire folks right now. I really liked the fried shrimp and frozen yogurt. Big selection of desserts. Still serving unlimited crab legs and prime rib every night. Get the free loyalty card to save $2 per person. Make sure to tip the crew. read more

The crab legs were over cooked and old. Prime rib was dry and flavorless. Ribs were bad. Pasta was really oily. Bread was cold. Food for cold quickly. Tried several desserts all were bad. Ice cream was not cold enough it was mostly watery. We paid $80 for food worse than Golden Corral (idk if Colorado has a Ryan's or Golden Corral, just comparing to Texas). It was not a Vegas high dollar amazing buffet. read more

The buffet was not great. The prime rib was lukewarm. There was very little butter for the baked potato and was not replinished. The staff did repeatedly remove used dishes and inquired about our needing refills on drinks. Not the greatest quality food. Expected more based on their website. The peel and eat shrimp was okay. There were no crab legs or lobster and we went on a Sunday. It appeared that since there were so few people dining at that time they reserved checking if food needed to be replenished or that no everything was displayed. read more

Went and took advantage of the champagne Brunch which starts at 11:00 on weekends. We enjoyed it and definitely got our fill and money's worth. Prices I do believe are $18.95 per person but if you are hungry it's worth it. Nice overall selection including breakfast favorites. read more

It's a small buffet (much like Monarch's), but man, do they pack in the food here. Easy to navigate around someone's big old behind (errbody loves a big butt, am I right?) without having to wait for 20 minutes to get some prime rib with some mashed potatoes and gravy on the side. The crab legs are nothing special. Typical run of the mill crab legs to found at a casino buffet. Do I eat them? Well, of course I do. It would be rude not to! Do I dip the crab meat into hot drawn butter? Is that even a question? Get outta here! The service is okay. It's a buffet, so there's not much to expect. Bring me my water and my bucket to put the crab shells in, and I'm a happy camper, for the most part. The line to get in can be long at times, but it's too bad. Stop complaining. You can wait in order to get some food. Hold your horses, you greedy mutton chop. Decent casino buffet. I will be back. Be sure to check the promotional kiosks after playing to see if you have enough points for a free buffet. read more

1 pound of crab legs per person. Prime Rib at carving station. Pot Roast... ribs... endless desserts. Warm chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven, every pie you can think of.... fresh fruit... I loved the lemon meringue pie. The server kept coming around to take our plates, fill our drinks - overall great service! Highly recommend. read more

We stopped by on Sunday evening around 6pm for the Buffet after having tried this place a few times. We were so disappointed! Not only did we wait almost an hour only to have the food be cold and clearly old. We started out the evening by grabbing a drink by the bar close to the buffet, in preparation for the wait. As I mentioned, we'd been a few times before, typically on a Saturday, so we knew there's be a wait. Two friends joined us, one who was visiting Black hawk for the first time and the other who made this his second trip out there. We were pretty impressed with the buffet at a different hotel and raved that this one was pretty good as well. Once seated we each grabbed a plate to dig in. The crab legs were first on the agenda & that's where the disappointment began. They were cold, almost as though they'd been sitting there for hours. There was no steam coming up from the hot plates so clearly something was wrong. The buffet started serving dinner around 4 and it seemed like nothing had been freshened up since then...And it wasn't freshened up while we were there...on to the meats! Those were lukewarm & weren't as fresh as they seemed. Everyone left with half plates and hungry bellies. read more
