    ice cream
    Jeff H.

    $43 for the dinner buffet inside Cache Creek casino. The food is not bad. The highlights for me were in this order: prime rib station, they will sear the meat on the grill, NY steak, snow crab legs, ribs, easy peel shrimps, clam chowder soup, fried shrimps and ice cream. One of my friends saw a long time buffet waiter. He said the buffet actually re-opened two years ago. All this time, we thought it was closed. Service was excellent. I was really full already. Next time, I will have to try their pizza. They have a pizza oven right there.

    It's great to see that they re-opened half of the buffet. It's almost the same setup as pre-pandemic but everything right of the turkey and ham station is still closed. Not sure if they intend on re-opening the other side. Price definitely went up, but this place is a closer option for me than going to other more expensive casino buffets in the Sacramento region. Service was good. Our server was nice and she kept checking up on us and she told us they decided to reopen the buffet due to many requests from players.

    This review is for the buffet on Thanksgiving Day. No lobster included. The highlights were the prime rib and ribeye - both were great but my favorite was the ribeye. Ham was a bit salty and dry but very flavorful. The mashed potatoes were chunky, big pieces of potato wedged in there but tasted okay with the gravy. I loved the seasoning on the stuffing. I personally had a very satisfying meal even though the selection was limited. All drinks including soda were included since you pay at the desk before entering the buffet area.

    Harvest Dining Buffet is definitely not Vegas Buffet, but it was palatable. Let me point out the good stuff: chips and pico de gallo, some of the seafood and Mexican station also not bad. Everything else was just ok. The crab legs run on the skinny side and somewhat overcooked. The It was our first time and prob won't return. About 40bucks/person. The server assigned to our table was nice and refilled our drinks a couple of times. I always hear good things about the Chinese food, maybe we can try there. Overall I haven't experienced tasty Casino food other than Vegas...but always appreciate the hardworking staff who run such an operation. Kudos to them!

    You know what happens when greed takes over value in a business? The place goes out of business. This is exactly what is going to happen to this once a great dinning location. The more time that passes the worse it gets. I just got back from cache Creek casino, I drove 120 miles for almost two hours to visit this once great restaurant. Needless to say, this is truly a sad story. This place has cut out the unlimited salad bar, and unlimited desert bar. They continue to charge $27 for dinner, and it's shocking how a place can do such a 180 in regards to value and quality. The Manager must feel so proud, to ruin something that was just right and turn it into S#it. It's been a while since I've been so disappointed in a business or restaurant that I once looked forward to visiting. I guess now there's absolutely no reason to visit Cache Creek Casino. To the Manager of Harvest Buffet Restaurant: way to go! You prioritized profit over value and a good dining experience. I predict this place to be closed down in less than a year from now. It's now total and complete garbage. Will never visit this again. What a depressing outcome this place has come to. Some examples of what I was given today. Look below. The salad, mediocre. The bread: hard and stale, the desert bar: they will only give you one piece, small and the person there guards it as if it was a prison:.

    We had $26 dollars in comps ready to use on a Sunday. We were expecting the buffet to be over $20 dollars since it was the weekend. But if you are a Cache Creek card holder you save $3 dollars a meal. The total comes up to $17 dollars. So get a card if you are out there to get 15% off the buffet. They call it the harvest buffet because the main theme is Thanksgiving. We came at 12:45 pm and they were serving breakfast till for another hour we were there. They split the buffet into sections and the buffet has a lot of variety. I will start from left to right as I can remember it 1. Cold Seafood (Shrimp, Mussel and Crayfish) 2. Salad bar (Not much selection) Reminds me of the one where you go to the pizza joint, but you can make your crab Louie. Lettuce look really old 3. Mexican 4. Breakfast 5. Thanksgiving section 6. Chinese 7. Italian 8. American 9. Fruits 10. Dessert (in the middle) Now what surprised me the most is how good the fast food Chinese food was and probably the best I have tasted. The Orange Chicken needs some work as it was soggy and not crispy like Panda Express. The Honey Walnut Shrimp was actually really good. They serve also rice porridge as well and the typical sweet and sour pork. The Mexican station, I fell in love with the chips and salsa. They had sour cream and guacamole as it was not the package kind and the ones where they made fresh. I had the birra and the meat was dry and some moist. They had enchiladas as well, but did not give them a try. I was a little disappointed in the seafood part as I wish they had more selection, but then the buffet was $17 dollars so could not complain, but it was old tasting though and need some sauce to it. The salad selection was small which they made more to choose from though. The breakfast station was good. You can create your own omelet and they make it for you. I wanted to try one, but I knew that once I had one I was done eating. They had the sausage, pancakes, wife loved them), bacon, eggs and the fried chicken. I have to say the fried chicken was awesome to have and had 2 pieces. Wanted to have more though as probably one of the best I had. I had some of the turkey and it was moist and the skin was good as well. They also serve stuffing and cranberry sauce as well. They had the American station which had the hamburger and hot dogs, but did not give these a shot though as I was full from sampling the other food. I did not have much of the Italian food The only thing I was really disappointed was the dessert though. I did like the rice pudding though, but the cakes were dry and tasted gross. The selection of ice cream was not good. They serve some pies and small dessert, but nothing really stood out. Customer service was good. We got our plates cleaned up fast, wish they would refill our drinks faster, but had to ask. They do serve Shirley temples which was nice. Overall not a bad buffet to go for the price. I will update with photos later on.

    What-a-Melon Cake?  Yes, a Watermelon Cake!  Slight tinge of Watermelon.  So weird that I had to try it.

    We recently visited La Plazita Taqueria in Madison. The restaurant itself was cute and inviting,…read morebut the first thing we noticed when walking in was a strong smell of cleaning supplies/bleach throughout the dining area. We ordered the chile relleno plate. The chile relleno itself was flavorful and probably the highlight of the meal, but the beans were disappointing. They lacked flavor, and the appearance wasn't very appetizing. Based on other reviews, we wanted to try the carnitas on the side, but were told there would be about a 1.5-hour wait. We also attempted to order a breakfast burrito and were told that if we "really wanted it," they would make it. That response felt a little odd and made us unsure whether it was something they normally offered at that time. We also ordered an al pastor quesadilla. The meat was flavorful and enjoyable, but it only came with lettuce and tomato. There was no sour cream or guacamole included, which was surprising compared to what we're used to receiving with similar dishes elsewhere. The chips served were store-bought rather than house-made. Overall, there were a few good items, particularly the chile relleno and al pastor, but between the strong bleach smell, inconsistent menu experience, and sides that fell short, this wasn't a place that stood out enough for us to return.

    Always a good time at C2!…read more I don't always make the trek here, but when I do, I make sure to visit C2. The service is superb. The staff is courteous and friendly, and they check on you during almost every course to get feedback. The dim lighting, personal lamp on every table, and white tablecloths give it the classic steakhouse feel. They used to have these cool light-up menus that illuminated as you opened them. I'm a little sad they don't have those anymore due to vendor issues--it was a small, thoughtful detail that really made a mark on me. The food is great. The steak is always perfectly seasoned--not overly salty or overdone, just right to the point where I don't need to add anything else. Even the roasted bulb of garlic that comes with the steak is perfect for adding extra flavor if I want to. The sides are what you'd expect from a classic steakhouse. One thing that sets them apart, though, is the bread. They always have a great variety, plus a huge helping of butter on the side. If this place were closer to home, I'd probably be here every other month. So it's probably a good thing that it's far away.

    I honestly don't know why there weren't lines out the door of people waiting on a table…read more My husband and I have been here twice, and both visits were outstanding. Let's start with the salsa. I don't know what they put in their salsa. I know the main ingredients of salsa, but their salsa? Oh my gosh. It is delicious. It's my favorite salsa. I'm sitting here stuffed from dinner, and I still want some right now. My husband loves the chorizo burrito. He's ordered it both times we've visited. It's this big, gigantic burrito that looks impossible to eat, but somehow he manages. On our most recent visit, we ordered the chicken flautas as an appetizer. First of all, the flautas themselves were delicious. The seasoning on the chicken had flavors that felt familiar, but with a twist of something I've never had before. And the smokiness of the sauce on the flautas? Delicious. Just absolutely delicious. I also ordered the salmon, which was perfectly seasoned. I believe it normally comes with vegetables, but mine came with a salad instead. Whatever the reason, that salad was outstanding. It was so fresh and flavorful. There may have been apple, pear, or jicama in it... I honestly couldn't tell... but every bite was delicious. The atmosphere is fantastic, too. Elena took care of us on both visits. She makes it feel like you're visiting somebody's home. She is absolutely warm and hilarious at the same time. What really surprised me was that she remembered the beverage my husband ordered on our previous visit. I was like, "How long ago was that? Three months ago?" Another young lady came around and asked how we were doing as well. Very hospitable. Again, I really can't believe there weren't lines out the door. I mean, it's a cool crowd, don't get me wrong. But y'all are asleep. Don't sleep on this place. Y'all need to get there. I'm telling you... just wait.

Unfortunately, the food is where things fell apart. When I walked in, I asked if they had a super burrito since I didn't see it on the menu. The gentleman taking my order said they did, so I ordered a carne asada super burrito. A regular burrito on the menu was listed at $8.99, but my super burrito came out to a little over $16 after tax. I also noticed Yelp lists the super burrito at $10.99, so maybe the prices have changed, but that's still a pretty big jump from the regular burrito. The burrito itself was huge, but after the first few bites, I was honestly disappointed. The carne asada was unusually stringy and fatty, which isn't something I've ever experienced with carne asada burritos before. I kept eating, expecting to get to the guacamole, sour cream, and salsa, but by the halfway point I decided to cut the burrito open. It turned out almost all of those ingredients were packed into the very bottom instead of being distributed throughout. The guacamole also had a sour taste that didn't seem right. I also noticed the burrito I received looked nothing like the photos posted here on Yelp, so I'm not sure if the recipe has changed since those pictures were taken. As someone who loves burritos and rarely passes one up, this was, unfortunately, one to forget. The free fountain drink and chips were a nice bonus, but they couldn't make up for the burrito itself. I genuinely wish this restaurant the best because the staff were excellent, but the food just didn't live up to my expectations.
