I was dining at the restaurant and paid for my buffet meal. The cashier was friendly, polite, and genuinely tried to help me. Unfortunately, she accidentally deducted points from my membership card and get lost. As a result, I had to wait approximately 45 minutes for a manager to resolve the issue. The manager, Jose, handled the situation in a very unprofessional manner. He was not friendly, showed little concern for the inconvenience I experienced, and did not provide an appropriate level of customer service. While I understand that mistakes can happen, I am very disappointed with Manager Jose's lack of professionalism and poor customer service. His attitude did not reflect the level of service customers should expect from your restaurant. read more

Something seemed fishy and boy was i right. I made an advance reservation for the all-you-can-eat lobster buffet at 9:00 PM, expecting that my reservation would be honored. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing from the moment we arrived. After driving through three hours of traffic and not eating beforehand because I planned on enjoying the buffet, we were forced to stand in a long, crowded line for almost two hours. During that time, I personally witnessed the line barely move. In fact the line advanced all of five people and that was only because people got tired of waiting and left the line. Myself and the other guests were eventually told we may or may not even be seated, despite having reservations. Because of how poorly the situation was being handled, I called the casino's main line and asked to speak with a manager. The manager came to speak with me while I was still waiting in line and listened to my concerns about how unfairly everyone was being treated. The "solution" offered was that we would all be seated, but only allowed 15 minutes to eat. I asked if we could take food to go since we were being rushed through no fault of our own, and I was told no. What made the situation worse was that when I looked inside the dining area, there appeared to be plenty of seating and staff available. It felt like the line was being held back because of a food shortage rather than because the restaurant was actually full. When we were finally seated, we had only 15 minutes to eat. The whole lobsters that were advertised were not available. Instead, we were served lobster tails, fried shrimp, and mashed potatoes along with very few items to choose from. Just as I suspected, there was very little left to offer. Guests who had hoped to enjoy dessert were left with ice cream because everything else was gone. This was poor management, poor planning, and a very disappointing way to treat customers who made reservations and waited patiently. After the long drive, the long wait, the rushed seating, and the lack of advertised food, this experience left a very bad taste in my mouth. I would not recommend Serrano Buffet unless they seriously improve how they manage reservations, crowd control, and food availability. read more

Seafood night at the Serrano Buffet inside Yaamava' Resort & Casino definitely hit the spot tonight! The crab legs were fresh and delicious as always, and they even had posole which honestly surprised me because it was actually really good. They also had New York steak -- it was decent, just needed a little more seasoning for my taste. Overall the food selection was amazing and there was something for everyone. The customer service here is always top tier too. Staff was super friendly, attentive, and kept everything clean and stocked. Definitely a great spot for seafood lovers! read more

Our server Dewi was amazing! She was quick to fill our beverages and she knew how to keep our party of 5 happy (extra napkins, off menu condiments for seafood night, etc). We went on the seafood extravaganza, which is always good. With the one exception of them running out of oysters in the beginning of dinner rush, the experience was amazing overall! Would recommend and will be coming back!! read more

Carole. was waaaaay sweet love it she take csre of us each time we come with a smile on her face. Ty Carole!

We made reservations for breakfast, and it seemed to be getting more misses than hits during our most recent trip to their Serrano Buffet. On top of that, the guest that is next to our table has no adequate table manners. He blew his nose several times so loud, and it was disgusting while we were eating next to them. I waited almost more than 25 mins to have my omelette made. The worker was nice that made my omelette, but he overcooked it, and it didn't taste that good, for waiting that long. Our main server was taking a break and her breaker was more attentive to other tables than ours. Even the obnoxious guest got better service, but I didn't see them leaving any tips, LMAO. I also asked for additional beverages, but it seemed like her communication wasn't too attentive. Even though we got subpar service and a bad dining experience, we still left a tip. read more

I love the casino plus the buffet is good. I use my free points on my yaamava card so, it's free! I love the pizza, carving stations but the omelette station is my favorite. So fresh and so hot! There are several options for desserts as well. The gelato is delicious! My server was attentive and nice. The not so good things are the lines to get it can be long and you will wait for a period of time. And you HAVE to make a reservation! But overall I enjoy it! read more

Serrano Buffet - Menu - Buffets Near Me - Highland, California

The Serrano Buffet at the Yaamava Casino is serious about providing delicious food, excellent service, and an overall positive dining experience. There is something for everyone as this buffet has a variety of food choices from pizzas, pastas, salads, seafood, Chinese food, Mexican food, pastries, etc, and it is surprisingly well prepared, fresh, and delicious. The servers at this place are truly AMAZING! They are hard workers and constantly check every table to make sure guests have everything they may want or need. Each server must easily average 10,000 steps per shift while working nonstop. The vibe here is upbeat and fun, as guests can be heard laughing and seen smiling as they enjoy the wide variety of food. Tip: You MUST make an online reservation via the Yaamava app to dine at this buffet. read more

Today was the first time I tried the Serrano seafood buffet here at Yamava Casino. I do have to say it was excellent. My husband and I had reservations at 4, which was the start of their dinner crowd. We checked in, and had to wait approximately 15-20 min. Wasn't too bad considering the line looked endless. Once we were allowed to enter the dining area, we were greeted, and escorted to our table. The food was fully stocked, and there were many different choices. Crab legs being their centerpiece. I observed all of their waiters/waitresses greeting guests, taking drink orders, and making sure it was going to be a positive dining experience. The seafood I had was fresh, and it was cooked to perfection. Not overcooked and/or rubbery. I will definitely visit this place again. I recommend trying it, if you are in the market for endless steamed crab legs. It was well worth it. They also had a wide variety of sweets with "sugar free" as one of the options. Great job Serrano Buffet. read more

8/25/2025 Breakfast Hour. I am just now going through my draft for the year Carlos & Kathleen gave exceptional service, with refills and cleaning my table . As usual breakfast selections had some great choices, from made to order omelets/ eggs cooked on site to your liking . An array of different types of Asians / Mexicans / American dishes to choose from. My only complaint was the Asian food section, the soups need refills more frequently. Menu is updated seasonally which is nice , knowing I don't have to worry about eating the same stuff every time I go. read more

We recently celebrated my husband's birthday along with my brother and sister-in-law's anniversary at the Serrano Buffet, and it was such a memorable experience! For $79.99 per person, the AYCE lobster (available every Wednesday and Thursday) is absolutely worth it. The lobsters just kept coming, and everything was fresh and delicious. Aside from the lobster, they offer a wide variety of options--from salads, shrimp, soups, and a pasta bar to teppanyaki and an impressive selection of desserts. There's definitely something for everyone! A tip: reservations are a must unless you're okay with waiting for a while. Special shoutout to our server, Dewi! She was incredibly attentive, friendly, and always had a warm smile. She truly made us feel welcomed and valued throughout our visit. Serrano Buffet is very lucky to have her--A+ service all the way and definitely 5 stars for Dewi! We also really appreciated how they made an effort to recognize birthdays and anniversaries, and we never felt rushed during our time there. It made the celebration even more special. Thank you, Serrano Buffet, for such a wonderful and memorable dining experience--we'll definitely be back! read more

Serrano Buffet - AYCE Lobster Thursdays Special - Buffets Near Me - Highland, California

Rating is based on operations and communication only. We did not get to eat. Posting this because as of now, the buffet is reservation only. There are two lines (VIP and club member), but both require a reservation. If you don't have one, do not wait in line! We arrived at 5 PM and waited about 35-40 minutes before being told the long lines were only for guests with reservations and that none were available for the day. The lines are extremely long and not clearly marked, so you end up relying on other guests to figure it out. Reservations open two weeks in advance, so book early and arrive before your reservation time. Communication and signage really need improvement. If waits are going to be this long across the casino, even having a drink or coffee cart going through the lines would help. Hopefully this helps anyone visiting the casino or dining here for the first time. read more

Decently priced casino buffet with decent food. I went for the Saturday brunch with friends. They had a few brunch classics like French toast, pancakes, and an omelette station. There was also carved meat, thanksgiving sides, pizza, Asian food, and lots of desserts. As a pescatarian (who doesn't do shellfish) they had a swai fish as a protein option. Overall the food was pretty average for a buffet! My favorite thing was actually the healthy smoothies. read more

Haven't been to the buffet in a while so I was able to lock a reservation in when I was at the casino. Still a hectic wait and long line for the buffet so it is difficult during prime hour. The food I got today was boring and flavorless. They had a picanha was cooked perfectly but lacked flavor.. even when dipping in the sauce they have on the side. Nothing new or special to mention. The only thing I enjoyed was the omelette station but I had to ask them to go easy on the oil or butter. Other than that, it was the best part of brunch. read more

We had such a great experience at the Serrano buffet and a huge part of that was because of our server Jenelyn Santos!

You can tell she truly cares about giving great service and making people enjoy their experience.

Came to Serrano Buffet for Hong Kong Lobster Night on a Friday. They charged an extra $10 surcharge for the Lobster offering regardless if you ate Lobster or not. Overall the Lobster was not worth the extra charge as they were tiny & overcooked then drenched in an MSG enriched sauce. Offering as a plain boiled option would've been much better. Aside from the lackluster lobster offering, service was amazing again with our regular server Holy! In a tense and slammed environment, she continues to maintain composure and ensures that all her guests are taken care of. Excellent service, great demeanor & stays cheerful with her hectic environment. How is she now management? I don't know. WE WILL ALWAYS ASK FOR HOLY!!! read more

Food its truly amazing, we tried breakfast and it's very good, good quality food, quiche was very tasty, even the orange juice it's good, pastries good and seasonal fruit, also the tri tip was very delicious, the only reason I'm giving 4 stars it's because it's impossible to make a reservation!!! Super frustrating because they have some offers for members and veterans but you can't make a reservation, I even tried 4 weeks in advance and nothing.. at least we tried 1 time read more

Wow! Totally worth it! Friday & Sat is seafood night. No lobster these nights. Great selections. Maybe the best snow crab I've had in years. Easy to crack and whole pieces just melted in your mouth. We had server Holy who was very attentive and friendly. Holy was also very informative. Drink refills and clearing of the finished plates were taken care of almost immediately. There's several tables but you're not crowded too close to each other. Making it a comfortable atmosphere. MAKE A RESERVATION and don't do what we did last weekend. (Reviewed last week) ;-) I also want to mention, our host, Sarah was very kind by noticing I was using a cane on this night and offered us a seat closer to the buffet. Very sweet. Egg rolls, pizza, fried chicken, battered shrimp and the dessert were also awesome. I didn't leave room for the poke (raw fish variety of chef served plates). Next time. Thanks Serrano Team! read more

Came back for Italian steak night! I liked that they substituted some stuff compared to lobster night. I really enjoyed the extra pasta options, the manicotti was chefs kiss. Their mashed potatoes is still A1 in my book! I mean Italian steak night Sunday was definitely more balanced in meal options I'd say, I definitely enjoyed it more. I'm pretty addicted, I'd keep coming back, and will keep trying different days of the week for different served menu options. Service is always great, and was even above and beyond this time around!

Our server, Carole, was super friendly and nice. She made our day. I would ask for her again.

I'm really disappointed with the whole experience. It was one thing to make a reservation, but when YOU STILL HAVE TO WAIT AN HOUR AND A HALF WHAT IS THE POINT OF THE RESERVATION?!? I am so mad and I would never come back let alone recommend this to anybody but my worst enemy. FINALLY got seated. The lobster was a bit tough but edible. The ice cream was good. It gets two stars for the food, 0 for the experience. The ambience was loud and was awful because of the waiting. When we left around 9 am, the line had gotten even longer. They need a better system. read more

Serrano Buffet at Yaamava' Resort & Casino is one of the better casino buffet options in Southern California and easily stands out compared to most regional competitors. While it may not fully match the extravagance and sheer scale of top-tier Las Vegas buffets, it comes surprisingly close in both quality and variety. We made a reservation ahead of time, but there was still a line upon arrival. Thankfully, the line moved efficiently and didn't feel frustrating or disorganized. Staff members were friendly, welcoming, and helpful from the moment we checked in through the entire meal, which made the experience much more enjoyable. The buffet layout is spacious and well organized, making it easy to navigate without feeling overcrowded. Food options were plentiful, with a good mix of comfort foods and more elevated offerings. One highlight was the dessert section, which was impressively large and well stocked--definitely one of the strongest dessert spreads you'll find at a local casino buffet. Pricing varies depending on the day and theme. We went on a Monday for Fusion Night, which offered a diverse selection of cuisines and kept things interesting rather than repetitive. It's nice that the rotating themes give you a reason to come back on different days. Even though we're not gamblers, this buffet alone is worth the drive. Serrano Buffet delivers a solid, reliable, and satisfying dining experience that feels a step above most Southern California casino buffets. If you're craving a buffet without hopping on a flight to Vegas, this is about as close as it gets locally. read more
