   We were so excited for the return of the buffet at Del Lago and while $75 was a steep price tag, the inclusion of prime rib and raw bar with oysters and shrimp on NYE made it seem worth it. It was no where near worth it. Remember Ponderosa? Much better. There was ZERO service. After being seated there was no wait staff and only the occasional busser clearing plates. Occasionally may be over describing the removal of plates as ours piled up and a couple behind us moved there's to another table. Luckily we brought sodas in from casino floor because I'm unsure of how one would get a drink other than water. There was a bucket full of small bottled waters available. The only food that was really edible was the prime rib and a salad. I tried an orzo salad and yam salad that were both somehow tasteless, I tried creamed spinach that was so disgusting I had to take it off my plate, which since no one was really clearing plates wasn't a problem. Burnt food, salty food, or tasteless food were abundant. Some tables had cloths, others didn't, there did not seem to be any rhyme or reason to this. The deserts were premade with the macrons still in the plastic sleeve they came in. Overall this was a horribly disappointing experience and I would say they were not prepared to have a buffet again, especially not a $75 NYE buffet. It felt like we had dinner in a retirement home dining room on a random Tuesday. If they do this again next year and you are on the fence, I suggest spending your money elsewhere.

   I have never had cold clams before and talking to other people there they hadn't either. They were very fishy and not good cold. All other food was food.

   The buffet was plentiful. The foods were mostly tasty. I did find the Jerk Pork roast a little dry, but there were enough things available to eat that it didn't matter. The clams were not served hot, but they were tasty.

   I just don't think the food was really great. Definitely wasn't worth 50.00

   Overall we enjoyed our lunch buffet. The beef tenderloin and turkey were moist and flavorful. I had a drum stick. I like that the tendon bones are removed, makes for much easier eating. Great variety of gravies and sauces were available. Particularly liked the chimi curi. The egg drop soup was noteworthy.. Nice and hot and creamy. As always the desserts were delicious. Great selection.

   It was a decent buffet but not for the price. Flank steak was tough and clams & mussels were frozen. They should have been warm or hot

   It was a cold damp rainy day. They should have had portable heaters. If not the brunch should have been cancelled. Some of the food had trouble staying hot. Thanks

    Had a reservation for 2:45 for the mothers day brunch. Showed up on time and was told I had to wait up to a hour and a half to get a table. The buffet was too packed there was a line just to get to the buffet. Terrible set up and even more awful service. Drove almost a hour to go there besides. NEVER AGAIN!!
