    I'm a bit disappointed in the CA Market Buffet, located in Coarse Gold, CA in the Chuckchansi Casino & Resort. There have been more misses than hits lately, and I don't know if it's a supply issue or management being stingy on inventory. We came on a Monday night, and I was craving their Kalbi KBBQ short ribs & fire roasted chicken. Guess what they didn't have any WTH. It's misleading to paying customers if you don't have the featured menu served that night for dinner. I barely finished 2 plates on an empty stomach. It was that bad. Even Golden Corral is way better and cheaper for dinner. The only thing that was good was their desserts and Eric, our server, is friendly, attentive and does a way better job than other servers. I hope Chuckchansi Management & their culinary head chef revamp the menu and make better offerings for Chuckchansi guests.

    The blue and green plates are the Mongolian Barbecue.

    We pass Chukchansi Casino on a regular basis, and we noticed some time ago that they had reopened the buffet style restaurant, calling it California Market Buffet. We used to kind of like the previous buffet, so we thought we'd stop and try it. The new offering is half the size of the old, but otherwise vey similar in ambiance. The service used to be pretty good, and that, too, is the same now. What's a little different is the food. There are several stations to choose from, but frankly most of them are not terribly appetizing. The salad station consisted of the type you'll find at your local pizza restaurant. Speaking of pizza, the Italian food station was several tepid pizzas and some damp pasta with bottled sauces. The fried chicken was a little tough, but the carving station looked like it might be OK. We didn't try that this trip. Even the desert station was just average, and some of the deserts were a little stale. The exception to the rule is the Mongolian Barbecue station! The vegetables were crisp and fresh, the sauces were interesting and tasty, and the amount of meat provided was very generous. You load your plate, they add your meat of choice, and then cook it all while you watch! It's fun, and tasty, and worth the trip all by itself! We'll go back, and this station is the reason why!

    I remember enjoying this buffet before the pandemic, so we decided to go for Sunday brunch. It was a letdown. Nothing was great, and many items just seemed old and dry. The Mongolian grill I had made was so oily that I couldn't eat it. The staff did a great job refilling drinks and clearing plate, and the salad bar was good, but I just don't see us returning.

    Love this buffet excellent attention as well as service and at a really good price, food is delicious

    My friend suggested I give it another try, we went during breakfast hours and honestly, breakfast is Way better than lunch/dinner. Alsooo I did noticed the cheesecake I got was sugar free, which it explains why it was not the best. I did try their birria during lunch hours and it was pretty good. Breakfast is where it's at

    Not sure what the fuss is about, but we enjoyed our dinner on a busy July 4th weekend. Came on a Friday night for crabs and prime rib. About $35 pp with member card and $39 for non-members. Prime rib was honestly cooked well. Seafood was fresh. It is what I expect from a buffet. Plenty of choices for everyone, and our server Michael was really attentive and refilled our beverages multiple times. I know that they have just recently opened, but I applaud the establishment.

They were both super knowledgeable and made us feel extremely welcome. They even had a special printed menu for our table with a birthday message that made it that more special.

One last thing....the Oyster with a fennel, apple, vinegar idk what changed my life. I am an oyster fan now, but just these lol TYSM!

That is exactly what happened during my recent dinner at Elderberry House. I visited with a group of four, and between us, we had two gluten-free diners and one vegetarian. After a quick heads-up the day before, the restaurant handled our needs with total ease. We went for the five-course tasting menu, and it was incredible from start to finish. We kicked things off with one of the best oysters I have ever had, followed by a beautiful tuna presentation. The kitchen even looked out for our gluten-free friends with a special version of their herbal-butter focaccia that was actually delicious. By the time the main courses arrived, I honestly could not decide if I liked my beef or my friend's snap pea risotto better; every single bite was pure perfection. The cocktails were another high point. My first drink was great, but after chatting with our server, Jordan, I decided to try the Last Word. It featured that hard-to-find green chartreuse, and I am a little annoyed to report that I have a new favorite cocktail that requires such a rare ingredient. The service is what really made the night so special. Jordan was so charismatic and helpful, making sure we were perfectly taken care of all evening. He was so good that I almost worried a second visit would not be the same without him, though the rest of the staff quickly put that fear to rest. Abby was so friendly and responsible for a truly unique but perfect-for-the-vibe playlist, and Chris the mixologist even stopped by to geek out about gin and cocktails with us. From the genuine care for our food sensitivities to the clever touch of the iPad check-in hidden in an elegant binder, it was a night for the books. I cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to bringing my family next!

    Vintage Steak House, Coarsegold: 2026 Jun 7 (4.72 of 5)…read more Vintage Steakhouse is one of our go-to eateries. We're celebrating our 35th year wedding anniversary here. From the time we stepped in and was greeted by the friendly hostess to the time we left, we were genuinely pleased with the staff here. I ordered the Tasting Menu and my hubby ordered French Onion Soup, Oscar Stryle & Prime Rib from their main menu. TASTING MENU: Amuse Bouche (watermelon gazpacho shooter): Refreshing way to awaken the palate. (5 of 5) Seared Sea Scallops (seared scallops, honey dijon aioli, citrus caviar beurre blanc): The crisp, caramelized crust of the scallops opens up to a luxurious naturally sweet and juicy interior. The scallops had depth of flavour, and the citrus shines through. It's buttery without any fishiness. The asparagus pieces were cooked through but still maintain its crunch. Everything works on this plate. (5 of 5) Chef Victor (sic) Pan Roasted Salmon (seared salmon preserved lemon beurre blanc, salmon chicharron, dill oil): The fish was beautifully seasoned and the sauce complemented the fish. What a perfect match - lemon beurre blanc and dill oil. The topper was bland but the sauce makes up for it. I could lick up the sauce - it's that good. (4.75 of 5) Chef Eli (sic) Filet Mignon (7 oz sliced filet mignon steak, carrot puree, oyster mushrooms, bordelaise sauce, crispy parsnip): A good filet mignon should melt-in-your-mouth because it comes from the softest, lean meat cut. My medium rare order was nearly there but the meat arrived cold. The carrot puree is vibrant in color - has a smooth, naturally sweet, earthy taste, and balanced perfectly with the meat. The mushrooms were over salted but was helped by the sweet smooth carrot puree. The cold meat brought an otherwise perfect score down. (4.5 of 5) Chef Jose (sic) White Chocolate Mousse (callebaut belgium white chocolate mousse filled with raspberry gel on top of a sacher torte sponge with fresh raspberries and chantilly cream): When I think of chocolate mousse, I think delicate, light, airy, cloud-like melt-in-your-mouth yumminess. This didn't have that. The dome was a hard shell. Though the presentation aced on this dessert, the texture and flavour did not quite live up to its name. (3.5 of 5) French Onion Soup: This is the ultimate comfort food. It offers a bold harmony of sweet, caramelized onions and rich, savoury beef broth, crowned with a thick layer of gooey, toasted cheese. Very satisfying. (5 of 5) SURF n TURF: Prime Rib 12 oz: The medium rare meat was beautiful to look at but not quite as brilliant to eat. Overall, this is a tasty dish but was quite chewy. They aced the sauce. (4.25 of 5) Oscar Style Crab: The Oscar-style crab béarnaise sauce combines the sweet, flaky texture of crabmeat with a warm, velvety French emulsion of butter, egg yolks, and herbs. It's luxurious, rich flavour is complex and decadent but balanced. Great harmony. So indulgent! (5 of 5) Our server, Steven is amiable but not in your face, which we truly appreciate. Steven radiates warmth and good-natured charm. (5 of 5) We were seated at a table but changed our seating to bar-side. They have an open-kitchen concept. From there, we could see who's cooking our meal and watch the seamless quiet communication and the care each chef takes in presenting the dishes. Sam, who worked on the salads was friendly and truly a genius in balancing the different textures and flavours together. (5 of 5) The complimentary bread came warm and tasted fresh. We were also presented with a complimentary dessert with the words "Happy Anniversary" written on the plate. (5 of 5) Mixed Drinks: Very good mix by bartender George. (5 of 5)

Courtney was the hostess and we really appreciate her accommodation. The steakhouse had an open kitchen and dining room was dimmed and very lovely We started with a raspberry lemon drop and a glass of red. For appetizers we ordered: Crab Cakes: 9/10 yummy but wished it was portioned for 2 French onion soup: 10/10, rich but not overwhelming. Delicious! Caesar Salad: 8/10, should have asked for dressing on the side For entrees: Tomahawk: 8.5/10 delicious and enjoyed the steak sauce Bone in ribeye: 9/10, solid, should just order 2 but the tomahawk was a must after a good night at the slots Sides: 10/10 garlic mash, good flavor not overwhelming 10/10 Onion Fries 8/10 risotto, good flavor and really enjoyable for non risotto eating people They ran out of the brussel sprouts Admittedly me and my boo tend to be over order-ers, but leftovers were great! Really good quality food especially tucked in a casino. The prices were fair but reasonable for where it was located. This was the best meal (aside from home cooked) that we had during our trip!

While walking in, I thought to myself "it's gorgeous, why didn't we stay here again?" and then remembered because all of their low ratings as a hotel are due to poor service. The receptionist at the entrance is very bleh (didn't even greet us, she just looked at us so we said hello first ). We sat down and ordered. We were the only customers. The girl who took our order was nice enough but lacked professionalism. She just seemed out of it. She didn't write down our order, but a few minutes later came back saying "wait what did you for your entree again?". I'm glad she double checked, but for the price of the food and aesthetic of the restaurant, I expected better service. I ordered the wagyu burger but wasn't asked how I wanted it cooked - I assume they only cook it well-done because that's how it came. It didn't have the juicy buttery flavor of Wagyu, or really any flavor at all. The bread was good. The fries are phenomenal and I liked that more than my burger Carrots & whipped ricotta was good but not great - very flat flavor profile of ricotta, honey, and carrots. I think this dish could've been better with some acidity like a bit of lemon on the side. The chicken pesto penne pasta was good, but still flat. It would be better with cherry tomatoes or something to give it depth. The pasta was cooked perfectly Despite the chicken being absolutely tiny (approx 4"), it was juicy. Wish there was more of it I didn't care for the butternut squash soup but my husband liked it. It had good flavor but was very thin. Overall the place is pretty, but I wouldn't return as the food was very forgettable. It's a shame that the best thing was the side of fries. I'm giving a 4 due to the food tasting clean/quality.

That's rare these days. I've never been to any other Deli Delicious besides this one, but I can't see how they would top this one. Thanks again!
