3.5 stars This Harrah's casino is really lacking in dining options. The Café is a tier above the fast casual offerings and is way more affordable than Hell's Kitchen. Honestly, it gives diner vibes. Though they do offer a myriad of menu items, we stuck with pretty basic things: -chicken fingers ($16): golden fried chicken tenders with dipping sauce -turkey club ($20): roasted turkey, bacon,tomato, lettuce, mayo + your choice of cheese Honestly, everything was pretty solid. They also use beer battered fries which I really like. Overall, both entrees tasted like room service in the best way possible. Good, but not great and a little relieved that it's not overpriced.
The café at Harrah's Resort & Casino in Funner, CA is clean, nicely decorated, and has a welcoming vibe at first glance. Unfortunately, the experience didn't quite live up to the setting. Service was good, but definitely not great. Our server was polite but came by at least three separate times to ask if we were ready to order while we were still reading the menu which made us feel rushed. Then, once our food arrived I don't think we saw her again until she dropped off the check. It felt like we were being hurried along without much attention afterward. I ordered the hot honey chicken sandwich ($20), which was a letdown. The chicken was slightly burnt on one side and really burnt on the other side (the thin side) and tasted overcooked. The "hot honey" seemed to be a mix of Sriracha and honey, which didn't have much flavor beyond heat. They also added a green chili aioli, which I would normally be excited about, but it just didn't pair well with the rest of the sandwich and there was too much slathered on. My friend got the steak sandwich and said it was good, while another friend ordered a burger and added mushrooms, which cost an extra $5, bringing her burger to a jaw dropping $25! She said it was just okay, not worth the price tag by any means. All in all, the café is a decent place to grab a bite if you're already at Harrah's and don't want to leave the property. But if you have any other dining options available, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here. Overall a disappointment.
Yes, the food here is expensive but Caesars rewards members can use rewards credits to pay. Service was great, as the employees were nice & attentive. The cafe was not busy at all on a Sunday night. We were immediately seated in a booth, and our meals arrived shortly after ordering. My son had bolognese pasta, hubby had the frisco burger (which I had a bite of, and was delicious!) and I opted for the fish and chips and shrimp. It was all freshly fried without being overly greasy. Our meals were tasty, portioned perfectly, and definitely hit the spot after an afternoon at the pool.
Me and my wife come here a lot before but I didn't get the chance to review the place. As far as i can remember, their food for me was just average, from the taste, the preparation and the service. Kinda more like an ihop and denny's type of food. So we stopped coming here for years. A couple of weeks ago, we got a chance to stay in harrahs again for 2 nights,, one morning we decided to come here again and have some good 'ol american breakfast. We had the avocado toast with sausage and the berry explosion french toast. We loved it! Portions are really big. The staff are really friendly here and the place is really clean.
Hungry from gambling or being at the pool? This cafe is located inside the Harrahs SoCal resort. They serve breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. You have a lot of choices for you to sit down and enjoy. Prices are a bit expensive, so make sure you sign up for awards card to get a discount or use your casino points. There is no kids menu, but there is plenty of stuff to enjoy. it's not the greatest food here at the resort, but it will do. The staff is amazing. Nice casual sit down restaurant.
I love eating here at the café whenever I'm around. My usual go-tos are the chicken wings, clam chowder (only servedon friday), and steak sandwich. I always get the wings naked with mango habanero sauce on the side 10/10! My friend always gets the shrimp pasta, and I have to say, they cook their pasta perfectly.. not too soft, nice and firm. Oooh, and their fries are also really good! Service is always great too. Just a heads-up.. if you order to-go, there's an extra $5 charge.
We visited The Cafe on Saturday night for dinner and had a pretty decent experience. We tried the California Chicken Cobb Salad, Pancake Tacos, and the Prime Rib Omelette. The food and service were both good overall, but I was caught off guard when I was charged an extra $4 for adding more lettuce to my salad. I was halfway through and realized I only had the toppings left, so I asked for more lettuce. The Pancake Tacos were good (pancakes folded in half with bacon, eggs, and cheese). The Prime Rib Omelette was okay, but it was a little too salty for my taste. Also, I prefer cheese inside the omelette, rather than slice of cheese on top, but that's just a personal preference. Overall, not a bad meal, but a few little things made it less memorable. Yelp ya later!
Saturday, 1-04-2025: We had dessert here after the magic show. Thankfully, there were no lines like earlier! Our beautiful server, Rattana, was very sweet & provided great customer service with a smile! We ordered coffee and cheesecake. Hubby ordered his plain while I opted for chocolate sauce. Both slices were huge and satisfying! The coffee was excellent, too. Love the subdued lighting here, which made the experience relaxing & leisurely unlike earlier with the long line and long wait times. It's a nice cafe with good food & exceptional customer service.
This will be your best option here at Harrahs especially if you have more than one person in your party. There are seasonal options depending on the month and season of the year. The most popular item tbh is the garlic shrimp pasta and it makes sense because it hits every time you are craving it. The burger is pretty good here too. As someone who is on a salt restriction, I usually just ask things for no seasoning/no butter if I can, and they can usually accommodate. The service can depend on the rush, so don't be too quick to judge based on it. They can be short staffed at random times, but honestly they are really kind and considerate people who love serving others and easy to talk to and love. We haven't had troublesome workers ever. The ambiance is like a moderate to teeny bit fancy diner-esque type of place. It is pretty chill in here. No dress code vibe. People have come dressed up for Mother's Day brunch vibes or in swimwear with covers/tank tops with board shorts and their floaties from the lazy river. When I'm in the mood for wings, I get naked wings with sauce on the side. Their blue cheese dressing is delicious. The wings are naked naked like no salty flavor or anything which I can appreciate a plain palette/canvas so that I can go as liberal or not with sauces. They are quick to refill your cups/coffee. :) read more

Stayed at the resort and checked out this place for lunch. They have robots that play music while they run your food to the table! They serve breakfast all day and have lunch/dinner options. A little pricey, $20 each, but good sized portions. Sandwiches can come with tater tots or truffle fries. My BLT had lots of bacon so I felt as though I got my moneys worth. The turkey club is stacked with extra bread. The fries don't really have a strong Parmesan truffle flavor but were cooked really well! I would eat here again if I stayed at the casino. read more

Outrageously expensive for 2 Breakfasts and no Beverages ordered. Food was good. Bacon cold, but what restaurant serves bacon hot anymore? Supervisor, Taylor, stopped by our table to chat. She was SUPER sweet !! Cafe was better than it used to be upon this visit. They have a robot deliver your food. read more

Staying, playing and dining at Harrahs can be challenging. They do have a variety of restaurants (Smashburger, Earl of Sandwiches, a fast food chicken place, Hell's Kitchen, Chinese place, seafood place, 'Rita's Mexican, pizza / gelato place, Starbucks and The Cafe) but not all of them are open everyday. 'Rita's, for instance, is closed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. So, if you are at the pool on those days, no food from them is available. The "lunch truck" outside 'Rita's is open on some of those days but didn't have any Mexican items the last time we were there (they were trying to sell $15 hot dogs instead). But, to the Cafe. It's open 7 days a week. So you know you can always use it as a backup. Decent selection of items and most are good. My favorite is the Country Fried Steak as their gravy is very good. Also like that you can replace your potato with tatter tots and, who doesn't like tots? Downside? Service and the line to be seated can be slow. So, if you go into it knowing it's going to take a while, you'll be okay. They have added a robot to deliver meals but really all it does is deliver the plates next to the table, your server comes to hand them to you. One negative is their to-go charges. You can order food to pickup but they add a $5 charge on top of your meal cost. If we stay for a couple of days, we will eat here at least once. Be sure to check their monthly specials. For March, they had Cottage Pie and it was great! They really should add it to the main menu. It was $20 and was big enough to share. I wound up taking some to-go (BTW, you don't get charged to take leftovers to go but I digress). So, good for breakfast, lunch or dinner (they close at 10pm) but expect to take a while for your meal. So, relax and...enjoy!!! read more

Unexpected Gem at Harrah's! 4 stars I wasn't expecting much--but wow, was I pleasantly surprised! We stopped by The Café at Harrah's since most places were closed, and let me just say, the pot roast stole the show. It was melt-in-your-mouth tender, perfectly seasoned, and paired with creamy mashed potatoes and fresh veggies that actually had flavor (imagine that!). Everyone at the table loved their food, and the cherry on top? A cute little robot actually delivered our meals--how fun is that?! From the warm, comforting food to the high-tech twist, it was a surprisingly delightful experience all around. Would definitely return! read more

okay -- here's a funny/snarky version: Rincon Café at Harrah's is like the casino's way of saying "technically we have food." Not good food -- just... food-shaped objects you can consume so you don't pass out. And the hours? They have a sign that says they close at a certain time -- but that's more of a concept than a commitment. It's like they spin a wheel in the back: "will we close on time tonight or will we close because one employee got bored?" let's find out. You can literally walk across the floor thinking you'll get a sandwich -- and they'll be like: "oh yeah we closed 45 minutes ago... because vibes." So if you want reliability or flavor: this is not your place. If you want to gamble on whether a restaurant is open inside the casino that's literally about gambling -- have fun at Rincon Café. read more

The Cafe inside of Harrah's Rincon Casino and Resort provides a menu full of breakfast, lunch and dinner all rolled into one. Given the limited food options inside of Harrahs, The Cafe has a menu that can accommodate a wide variety of food preferences. The portions are a good size considering the prices I found to be on the higher side as you have limited options in the area of places you can dine. On this first time visit, I opted for the Rib Eye cooked medium rare which came with Mashed Potatoes and vegetables. The steak was decent as its no prime cut of beef but nonetheless palatable. Service was great as the staff was attentive and they even had those serving robots helping out the staff. The Cafe is a great dining option if you are looking for classic breakfast options, salads, and meat centric dishes. read more
The service and ambiance is great. I wish I could say the same about the food. The skillet is ordered containing something additional was not pleasant. It appeared as a hair. My server Noe dismissed it as something part of an onion. Oh well. I sent it back and requested it to be made again for take out. I tipped Noe nicely and paid at the counter. Such an unfortunate situation, but I am willing to give the Cafe another try. read more
I had breakfast with my dad at this cafe located inside Harrah's casino. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. We both had the country fried steak and eggs. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the gravy complimented well together. The hashbrowns were crispy on the outside the way I like them. Our server, Eric ( I think), was awesome. I will definitely return here for breakfast . Keep up the great service. It's appreciated . read more

Sandwiched in between the promotions desk and KJ Chinese Restaurant along the north wall is The Cafe at Harrah's. Every time we passed by, this place was full of people, and for good reason! Service was superb and came with a smile every step of the way. At a glance from the outside, we thought it was a pretty small restaurant with very limited seating, but after being checked in and led to our table, we realize that there is plenty of room. Traditional American diner and cafe cuisine is offered on the menu here with quite a few options. Keeping in tradition with being located inside a casino, the prices are higher than your local cafes, but when compared to the other restaurants here, this is the best value for your money. The portions are decent and will fill you up. We opted for the High Roller (eggs your way, bacon or sausage, hash browns or tots, toast and two pancakes) and the Big Country (country fried steak, ham steak or corn beef hash, eggs your way, hash browns or tots, and toast). While there wasn't anything really special about the High Roller other than being really filling and quite tasty, my wife LOVED her country fried steak. I was struggling to finish my meal because of the tots and the pancakes, then opted to take the rest to go, but the Big Country was perfectly portioned for my wife. One of the highlights of the meal was the robot helpers that were driving by on their own to each table with their respective orders. The servers still come to hand you the food off of the robot, but it was very interesting watching it move back and forth. The missing star is unfortunately due to the open access to the casino. While the visibility is there to attract hungry casino patrons, it also attracts the smoke that plagues the rest of the casino. There's something about getting ready to dig into a perfectly cooked egg and sausage breakfast, but getting hit with a wave of cigarette smoke at the last second that diminishes the experience. Payments are collected at the exit at the cashier stand, and I believe you can use your casino credits/points towards your meal. read more

The steak and eggs were ok. The eggs and hash brown were good but not the steak. Definitely not worth $30+. The to go service was good. The ambiance was like a diner. Food was to go and we've eaten here before. Other choices were better from previous dining experience. read more

This place is inside of the Harrah's Resort. This is the August Special (Aug. 2023). Fried steak on top of spaghetti, which I thought was OK. I asked for a side of Parmesan cheese and they have freshed shaved! Yum, defintely added to the flavor. My hubs got the Prime rib, which he loved. Decent size, cooked correctly, and the mashed potatoes were yummy! We also shared a breakfast one day! Chicken fried steak & eggs. Delish! Really appreciated that they stayed open later than any of the other restaurants in the resort, since there really isn't much else around! :) We had great servers both times we ate here! No complaints!!!! :) read more

I've been to all the fast/casual restaurants at Harrah's SoCal, and The Cafe is my favorite. Fast friendly service. Robot is amusing. The garlic butter shrimp pasta is off the charts good!!! The vegan "funner fried rice" is delicious but came with overwhelming garlic chunks. I'd definitely order it again, just would request minimal garlic. read more

Came up to Harrahs for a comedy show and needed to grab dinner. Hells Kitchen and the Cantina were booked so we decided to come to the cafe. Not only did we do dinner here, we also had breakfast here the next morning. For dinner I had the turkey club sandwich with the parmesan tots. The sandwich was ok, the turkey for some reason tasted dry, there was not enough mayonnaise on the sandwich but the tots were amazing!! My friend had the chicken breast sandwich and said it was good but she loved the tots the best. I'm telling you it's all about the tots lol!! Service was ok, refills on drinks were very slow and the bread of the sandwich made my mouth so dry, I was drinking my soda so fast I desperately needed a refill but couldn't get one. In the morning we had breakfast here, I had the Denver omelette which was really good and chose the tots over the hash browns lol! Again the service was just super slow and idk why because the place was not busy. Overall it was what it was...an American cafe. read more
