The Swedish meatballs were cold by the time I ate one, and that instantly turned me off. Other items I tried: macaroni and cheese with chicken – it was okay, I wasn’t really in a mac n cheese mood though so I left most of it on the plate. It was excellent meat – very tender, cooked just right, with those nice little charred pieces around the edge. I got a nice piece of Prime Rib that they stuck on the grill for a few minutes to cook it up a little more.

I also filled up my plate as much as it would go, filling in every little space on my plate. We stood in the “Prime Rib” line as I like to call it (“Carving Station” is what they called it, but no one seemed to be getting the roast turkey that was also up for grabs). There were not very many low points, just an overall surprise at how good everything was. I’ll have to say though, the majority of the food I tried at the buffet was excellent. I liked it, too, but probably not as much as he did. They’re running a special now through Memorial Day – the $16.95 buffet now costs only $10, and includes Prime Rib on the menu. My boy and I visited Sycuan Casino to get a taste of their buffet. Suffice it to say, the food has to be at least decent. So they better have some good food options there, otherwise people won’t stay there forever spending their nickles and dimes. Once you get out there, there’s nothing else out there.
