Early this month , our oldest son treated my husband & I to the Grey Eagle Prime Rib supper buffet . We were surprised the lineup went pretty fast . There was a game show event : The Price is Right which we were also treated to . On event days , they do not take reservations for dinner at the buffet . We were early at 5 pm and it was about 10 min wait . The buffet was hot and fresh and my Prime Rib was excellent! Juicy , medium rare and so tender ! The guys went back and had second helpings ! We enjoyed the sides offered and the Yorkshire Puddings were huge . The desserts were good selections and small portions so you could try several . Service was excellent and we enjoyed our dinner out very much prior to the show . read more

I stayed at Grey Eagle to attend a concert, and the experience overall was good. The hotel check in was quick, and the hallway was fairly quiet and room was comfortable and clean. There was an issue where it wasn't secure with someone who was not a guest on a floor and making guests feel uncomfortable. Once it was shared with hotel staff, they removed the person from the hotel, but they did not inform us so that is something that could have been improved. The restaurant by the hotel had great food and service, and it wasn't too busy during the day. It was busy for the evening rush, but I still felt the noise level was reasonable. The casino was cramped, busy and smoky for a Sunday evening. I didn't like the layout much. But they do provide free help yourself coffee in the morning. The event centre wasn't crowded, and easy to get to our seats. We had first row and I found it was quite close to the stage. I didn't have a drink, but the line ups weren't too long. There are bathrooms in the event centre, but we went in the casino as it was closer and no line up there. read more

One of the worst Casinos to go too! This casino never pays! Everyone looks depressed! Not one person looks like they're having a good time! Completely horrible experience! read more

I visited Gray Eagle in Calgary awhile ago after being told that it's a step up from River Cree. This buffet has a lot more variety and the set-up felt more open. Some of the items that stood out the most were Scallop, Crab Legs, Crab/Lobster Claws, beef, and all the fruits/fondue. Overall, it was quite nice and I'd give it 8.3/10 read more

We are regular customers, love this buffet, great atmosphere, table service and the price is good

First of all the crab is on ice, huge disappointment. It's possible I missed that on their advertisement, maybe/maybe not. Either way. Prime rib was very tough and there were very few options, including desserts. I was unable to find anything to my liking, other than the mussels. My server was great, very attentive and nice. Unfortunately, I will not be returning. read more

The Service was amazing. My burger was very delicious. Done perfect. I would recommend this restaurant and casino. Check it out. read more

The boys and I were really excited to find that there was a prime rib special ($32.99) on New Year's Day! We had to phone to make reservations because OpenTable wasn't working properly. As expected, there was a long queue when we arrived, but you can walk up to the front and wait by the "Reservations/Special Guests" sign and the staff will seat you quickly. My son and I made a beeline to the prime rib(there were two choices: medium rare and medium well), fish (sans chips), crab cakes, and butter green beans Almondine. The usual condiments (tartar sauce, au jus, horseradish, chili oil) were provided on the side. The prime rib was juicy and meltingly tender, the green beans were delicious and tender-crisp, and the perfectly seasoned crab cakes were packed with a generous portion of crabmeat (I'm adding an extra star to this review on account of these crab cakes!). The lightly battered fish was delicious without the chips. However, the grilled shrimp skewers were bland (they looked like they were steamed/boiled), and the marinated steaks were thin and overcooked. With the exception of the chocolate fountain(with profiteroles, pineapple, marshmallows, honeydew and cantaloupe), most of the dessert choices were lacklustre. The sangria jello tasted like cheap wine(the boys and I would have preferred it to be sweeter) and the creme brûlée was served in a huge pyrex dish instead of individual ramekins. read more

I stayed at the hotel for 1 night. Spent $200 for a Sunday night. The front desk service was friendly and efficient. The room was beautiful and the bed was comfortable. Since I'm on a carnivore diet, I went to the buffet for dinner for Prime Rib. It was flavourful but I don't think it was worth the price. In the morning, I had breakfast at the Little Chief. The service was great and the food was hot and tasty. All in all, I'd recommend this hotel aside from the fact that the cost of the room was pricier than most hotels of the same caliber. read more

This Review is for the BUFFET within Grey Eagle Resort Casino. As you can see from my photo, they have nightly features that highlights different cuisines from Seafood to Prime Rib to International. Much like many other Casinos, their Buffet is relatively reasonably priced. For Friday to Sunday Nights, they feature Albertan Prime Rib of Beef Buffet for $27.99! I am not going to say the Prime Rib is the best, in fact it is slightly above average, it is cooked very well, as you can see, its perfectly medium rare, but the taste is not as intense as you might expect the kind of beef from Alberta. I had been to another Casino for their Prime Rib Night (No Buffet in that one), their beef quality is much higher! But considering the price you pay and other items you get along with the beef, it is not a bad deal, remember to ask for your complimentary Tea after your meal! ( only Tea is complimentary, if you want coffee, its extra!). read more

Grey Eagle Buffet _$29.99 . This was just fine. I wouldn't go back again and didn't feel goof after. I didn't even eat much for a buffet and nothing tasted special. Great for an average meal, but definitely not worth the visit or recommendation. I'm glad I finally checked it out, but definitely prefer my $1,99 breakie at @cashcasinocalgary. It's fine for a buffet, but if you love food there's 100 other places I could recommend instead. You also have to pay in advance before sitting down. read more

Went to a concert at the event center. There was enough staff to get everyone in quickly once the doors opened. There were plenty of bars set up throughout the event center and they had short quick lines for expensive drinks but what do you expect at a concert? There was plenty of floor space and the acoustics weren't too bad either. read more

I came here for dinner at 8pm. No line up. The food seemed freshly rolled out considering they were a buffet. The prime rib was nicely cooked. The desserts were diverse. Caution the tend to undercook the noodles. The clam chowder was my grandma's homemade batch. Fantastic. Service was attentive. It was almost perfect, except they didnt have ice cream. read more

Went to this Casino with a few friends last Friday. We ate at the buffet. It was fine, nothing to write home about. We then went to the Blaze Bar and Grill to watch a band play. It was okay at first but the smoke started to get really bad. My eyes were burning and I started to feel really bogged down by it. As the night wore on, the crowd became intense. I started to feel unwelcome and that someone might say something to me or one of my friends at any given moment. The vibe was not pleasant. Myself and my friends where feeling uneasy. So much so that we decided to leave early. As I was leaving, a big guy who I noticed had his eye on me during the night approached me and held my arm very firmly and asked why I was leaving so soon. I kept walking, hopped into a cab with my friends and left. I won't be back. read more

Went there for a work conference. The conference was in the hotel so we stayed there. Room was great, clean and spacious. The Indigenous art was amazing! Staff were friendly including security and person at the door. During the conference, we had some issues with the audio but IT come to help right away and got the issue fixed. The food in the casino was okay (I'm sure the restaurant food could have been better). We had left over treats at the conference and staff was happy to box it for us. Definitely hope to go again and explore more! read more

I don't know what happened but they have been going down hill for a while. Prices went up, food selection went down and their antiquated point of sale system actually got worse. Possibly new managers? I dunno. The food they add peppers to makes no sense and if you are cutting food costs why would you garnish with the most expensive vegetables. Veal? Another expensive cost. Most people dislike it you may want to offer two selections. Deserts......most are frozen premade crap now. They turned a gem into a lump of coal. How do you run out of ribs 1 hour into brunch....it is turning into a joke. read more

No place for kids. That's the only drawback. What if you are traveling? What do you do with them?

Service is good the buffet is amazing was very happy with everything the bar service wasn't the greatest waitress seemed overworked

LOVE this place so much! The rooms were amazing! Beds really comfortable and don't get me started on the free breakfast! Omelette bar, salmon, waffles, pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon sausage, pastries, cereal, toast, bagels, fruit, MOrE and MOrE! I asked the front desk for a medical clinic because I was coming down with bronchitis and when I ordered room service they brought me a get well card hand signed by numerous employees at the hotel! Then called me 30 min after getting my meal and said the chief wanted them to bring up some sorbet with fresh fruit because I had such a hoarse voice I could barely speak! Soooooo nice! Over and beyond! read more

I love, love, LOVE Grey Eagle! I came here on a work trip and we were hosting an event at the hotel while there. I can't tell you how fantastic our while experience was. Our stay here started with checking in to the hotel and getting our rooms. Walking in, I couldn't believe how bright and welcoming the hotel was. The huge lobby was decorated for Christmas and was so inviting. The staff here are lovely, and so helpful if you need anything or have any questions. The rooms are fantastic, with their large spaces, comfy beds, and all the amenities you may need during your stay. I loved how all the toiletries were from a local Native company, keeping in line with the resorts Indigenous affiliation. We met with Kelleagh, who organizes events at the resort, and grabbed a drink and a bite to eat at the Little Chief Restaurant. They have do many First Nations inspired options on the menu, and we were lucky to try a few. The restaurant uses local ingredients that are grown, harvested, and foraged from a local reserve. Everything we tried was so delicious, but my personal favourite was the poutine with buffalo meat and Saskatoon berry gravy! Kelleagh had some great insights into the food for us and we learned a lot... It probably helps that her husband is the Head Chef! The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because the construction happening around here is a bit of an inconvenience. I know it's inevitable with a new spot like this, but it's still a pain. I can't wait to come back here in February! read more

Went to Grey Eagle Casino for supper and some slots yesterday. Slots were fine, despite the smokiness of the place. The food service is where the stars drop. Ordered fish and chips, and the fish, while being more fish than batter, had an off taste to it. Maybe it was just the type of fish, but I didn't eat more than the couple of bites I had. Server was non existent. No mid meal "how's everything tasting" nothing. We paid for our meals and went back to play some more. Once we left, I started feeling gross, and just shook it off as being tired, and eating so late. Fast forward to laying in bed, feeling like absolute garbage. Was it the dodgy fish? Who knows. But enough of a deterrent from eating there again. read more

Very friendly desk staff. A nice hot tub outdoors. The rooms were clean and a pleasant stay.

Tried their seafood buffet here. Line was long to get in and even had a line to get the food itself. When we finally got to enjoy the crab and lobster it was so dry.there's a time limit to eat which they were lenient about. Had prime rib as an option - nothing special. But 49.99 for this quality of seafood no thanks. Disappointed read more

I think this is Calgary's newest casino and resort situated in the southern part of the city. The road leading to the casino is a bit confusing since it's like a small circle but when you aren't sure where you are going, you can miss the turnoff! I had an event to attend there, we managed to get to the parking lot but totally missed the event centre entrance! All we saw was the casino entrance and the hotel entrance. The parking lot is a fair size and the event centre seems a bit small. The washrooms were nice and there are two on each side of the meeting room we were in. It was very quiet inside but the stage can be easily seen along with two screens. The temperature of the room was comfortable as the chairs. This was the second time I wanted to book a room at the resort but found that only 1 king bed rooms were available and the price is quite high. Guess maybe I have to book more than one month in advance. Didn't get a chance to experience anything else here...yet. read more

Really doesn't seem to have any flow to the placement of machines. They smoke inside still as it is on reserve. Parking is a bit of a challenge and coffee station was actually gross. Thought about getting a cup. Then some haggard old lady started coughing all over it. Soooo no thanks. read more

Went to the Grey Eagle Casino and took wife there 10 yrs ago. Had the buffet and it was terrible...I got stomach poisoning. Wife swore we'd never go back so I listened for quite a while...and went back there myself this week. Tried it again this week and nope, not much has changed. Poor hot food selection, overcooked, under-reheated. Veal roast that was overcooked and when I asked for something closer to Medium done-ness, was told 'there might be some in the middle' and then the carver cut a piece off the end and walked away from his station. Glum place...no positive atmosphere at all and for the low, low price of $16.99. Even the deserts ranged from bland to yucky....how is it possible to ruin desert??? Waste of time and money...ashamed to admit to my wife I wasted money again on that slop but would have felt worse if I had dragged her along this time, too. read more

Worst place ever!! We attended a very sad celebration of life and had a few drinks prior to going to the casino. We were minding our own business at the bar in the casino and confronted by 6 security guards who thought we were not up to their standard. I'm have never been so embarrassed. Terrible people!!! Then when we were leaving we saw them rough up another person. Do not go there ever!! read more

Dinner at Little Chief Restaurant at Grey Eagle Hotel before concert. Nice atmosphere. Waitress Jennifer was great - attentive; explained the specials & suggested that we order food before a big group of 20 people placed an order. Haddock Fish & Chips was presented very nicely but was actually rather bland. Too much batter & not enough fish - kinda like fish nuggets. $18 is expensive for what it was. read more

This review is strictly on their seafood night buffet. Most people that I know say to head down there and line up before they open at 5pm because sometimes the queue goes all the way to the door. I find it best to come at around 630-700pm when the first couple rounds of people have finished eating. Zero line up, always seated fast. Food seems to still be well stocked during that time. Love the crab salad, mashed potatoes, the LOBSTER CLAWS.. dipped in warm butter... oh pure gluttony I tell ya! The crabs legs are served on ice so be aware that your fingers will start to hurt after a while from the cold. They have this fish in fruit sauce that I dont particularly enjoy the taste. Sometimes when I need a palate cleanse, I go for the steak (hehe) which they have a single station for in the middle of the bar just for those who would like something else. And of course, the chocolate fountain! Here's a trick: put your fruits in a separate plate then grab a soup bowl for the chocolate. Then you can have your own chocolate dipping sauce to enjoy on your table. Hehe. A little pricey but seafood is never cheap. read more

Let me say what I don't like cause there isn't much. I don't like it is literally in the middle of nowhere. Also I don't like no bathtub in the room. I do like the rooms, clean and a comfy bed. I like the shower. I loved Blaze bar, see my review of that! Casinos are always fun. We bought an adventure package which got tickets to Heritage park and free buffet breakfast! Well worth it. If I am in Calgary again and want to stay on the outskirts it will be here! Also after breakfast I have to add the buffet breakfast is amazing! read more

This review is for the restaurant at Grey Eagle Resort and Casino. Since my birthday conveniently landed on a Wednesday, and Japanese happens to be one of my favorite types of food, it was great to try the pan-Asian all-you-can-eat buffet! Atmosphere: 3/5 The hotel was located a little far; otherwise standard hotel and casino atmosphere. The restaurant portion itself was a good size; overall clean and relaxed feel. We were seated at one of the circular booths. It was not too busy when we arrived so we were able to enjoy the buffet at a leisurely pace. Food: 4/5 Great variety of sushi, rolls, and sashimi which I love, with a sushi chef who is able to take special orders. There were also a few dim sum choices, vermicelli noodles, and a salad bar w good variety which I liked. Of course, there were also some staple Asian dishes like noodles, ginger beef, fried rice, etc. There was a huge dessert table with a chocolate fondue but I got too full to try everything! Service: 3.5/5 The restaurant staff were great and friendly; we were seated quickly and plates removed efficiently. We did have a little trouble with the coat check staff though who were a little suspicious. I also kept getting ID'ed. Price: 4/5 Good price for the amount and type of food. Overall: 4/5 Overall I enjoyed my experience at the buffet here! I would come again for one of their other buffets as they do have a different special every night and during the weekend for brunch. read more

I had no idea that this resort hotel was a casino and an event theatre. All I know was that after being tossed around the left coast for a week, I wanted a nice place to relax and get some rest before my flight home. The place had a good rate for the mid week and I book it on the app. There is a whole bunch of roundabouts on the way there. I'm from a place with the word roundabout means trying to find an excuse for something! I missed the exit on the roundabouts a few times...one time I took it all the way around twice to get off on the right turn off. Thanks Google and Apple Maps!!! Finally got there...first you pass the event theatre, then the casino, then you get to the hotel. The hotel was a bit stark looking on the outside but it was modern and chic overall - minus the old west wagon parked up front. The place is run by the Tsuut'ina First Nation in Calgary. The hotel is about two years old and I like it! New hotels are nice to stay in. The hotel is not heavily laden with First Nation art and decor. In fact, they tastefully used their decor throughout the hotel. The rooms are large and comfortable. The beds are the comfort sleeper kind. The bed frames (as per a previous review) is the wooden box type - AAANNDDD...I hit my leg again moving around the bed - same place too! Argh! The bathroom is nice and the shower pressure was better than the other several places I stayed on the trip. The shower stall needs better cleaning as mildew and soap scum were building up in the corners - eew! They had a small snack selection with the normal over priced product card next to it. It did however have two bottle waters for Free! Mine!!!! The hotel restaurant is called Little Chief. They have the usual happy hours and a selection of food and drinks. I opted to skip Happy Hour and go a little early to have my dinner and relax for the night. My dinner was over cooked but the beer was good - it was called the VELVET FOG - yes...named after Mel Tormay (spelling?). Harry from Night Court would be sooooo happy! If you are hungry, there is a buffet place at the casino - kind of expensive unless you really like to eat! The event theatre is busy with a strong line up. Go and see their website - quite a great set of entertainers are highlighting their stage. The parking lot was packed when I finally hit the hay for the night and it was a ghost town when I woke up. Next time I stay here, I'm going to make sure I have time to enjoy the whole resort and maybe test lady luck. read more

Visited the Tsuu T'ina rez and ended up having lunch at the Flame restaurant within the Grey Eagle Casino. This place seems to be doing well. It's fairly new, and you can tell by the nicely laid out and decorated casino. I'm not a gambler, but I can appreciate the ambiance of a casino. Flashing lights, bells, whistles, money flying left & right, hope rising and falling, no windows, maze-like layout, etc. Flame restaurant was nice (there's also a buffet, but I didn't feel like a glutton). I had ordered the liver & onions, and for a second I thought it was going to be served rez-style, but instead it was presented very cleanly & artistically....ummm...should I eat this, or take a picture. The liver was good (almost as good as mom makes). With everything the casino offers, it's gratifying to know the money generated by this venture goes toward the Tsuu T'ina people. If I were to lose $$ here, it's nice to know it's going to a fellow Treaty 7 tribe. read more

I've never played a real game of bingo before. Maybe at a birthday party when I was 5 but not like this! We thought we'd try something different tonite for something to do. For about $25 we got a starter pack of cards and a coupon for a bingo dabber. We obviously looked like fish out of water here so an employee, Donna explained everything to us!! Gave us a list of directions too. Bingo is harder than it looks. She even checked up on us during the night. She was great! We didn't win but it was a fun and cheap night out. 3 hours for $23. Only cons, grey eagle is on the reserve so you can smoke there. I had to wash all my clothes and my coat when I got home. And one of the workers at the concession was kind of a hag. Every other employee was AWESOME and helpful!! read more

Too many negatives. Went to a show in the Events Centre. When choosing seats online, you can't tell that the floor section isn't staggered/tiered? What's the word I'm looking for here? The floor is flat so you could easily get stuck behind a giant and not be able to see the show. Super! Want a drink? They have a bar ready to go with great, quick bartenders except they only take cash. What is this, 1999? If you think cash is faster than the tap, then you are drunk Susan, not me. Enjoy the $4 service charge at the ABM that you are certain to be scammed by. Seating sections are labelled but if there are many people walking around you might miss the tiny sign that says which section you're near. Many ushers waking about who offered no help at all. Why are they even there? As mentioned, seats on the floor were not tiered like stadium seating. They were banquet chairs strapped together. Actually strapped together. If you are sitting next to a normal to large sized human then you are rubbing thighs/shins/arms through the entire show. Thankfully our aisle-mates has solid bladders but others were not so lucky. We watched half a row leave their seats and evacuate to the aisle just so two weak bladdered jerks could get through (twice). That's how tight the seats were. It was exceptionally awful spacing. Bathrooms were spectacular. Very clean. Went for a stroll through the casino after the show; disgusting. Again, what is this 1999? Who even smokes anymore let alone why is there a place these dingy scabs are allowed to be indoors. Ventilation was poor which likely made it seem worse than it was. Not a smoker, not hanging out in smoke, end of story. read more
