Went for Brunch on Sunday, the Buffet was good even for the price as there are not many breakfast options in Black Hawk. With Monarch rewards card you get $2 off each so it’s a little something. 21+ you get 2 mimosas each with your meal. Also includes soda, juice, coffee, water. Each person does get a ticket for one lobster tail and one crab legs. They did have garlic ginger crab legs unlimited for self serve on the buffet. The food was all kept fresh and at appropriate temperatures.

I came here for dinner, the food is very good with high quality food options. They do give you 1 ticket for a lobster tail & 1 ticket for a hand-full of crab legs. Prime rib, steaks, Mexican food, Chinese food etc… all great! I’m not really a desert type person but they had so many options. Cake, ice cream, cookies, pies… even a chocolate fountain you can get chocolate covered strawberries or Marshmallows. Although the food was good.. the line is LONG you will wait around 1-2 hours but if your lucky you can go in earlier. It is a bit pricy for dinner (58.99 for adult) but it is worth every penny. The only reason why I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the service is a bit slow. I would of given it 4.5 stars if google had the option. I highly recommend this buffet. (I spent 128$ for 2 adults)

Variety of foods available. Went on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty relaxed. Not overly crowded. Prices are reasonable for the food you get. Very friendly staff. Only thing I didn’t like was that the bathroom is outside the restaurant, but you can get back in.

The Buffet was very impressive. A lot of food to choose from, different types all well cooked. Ot was a little pricey, but the food was absolutely delicious. The table service was fantastic, and quick. Our drinks were never empty. We went on the weekend, so I can’t say about the weekdays, but brunch was great. Salad bar had lots of options.

We waited about an hour in line, which seemed excessive. There are three lines, one for hotel guests, elite members, and the rest of the riff raff. If you are the riff raff, you will wait an hour.

Limited to one lobster per buffet, the lobster was decent. Unfortunately, they seem to rely more on quantity than quality. They made massive amounts, but they were not that busy and therefore, many dishes didn’t appear fresh. Many items that were popular were great, good tasting and fresh.
