    Tried their all you can eat buffet for the first time. Fish was good. Had a variety of foods. Would've loved more seafood options on the buffet bar though.

    Receipt

    The waitress tried and was honest they insisted in charging me full price for an appetizer that was not made right and even the waitress believed something was wrong with it. The manager however refused to take it off and only took off 15%. The waitress was so kind that she tried to make up for it by giving us some desserts. Honestly I was so disappointed. This place use to be good

    Food was decent, got the 3 piece chicken dinner, corn and red beans & rice with corn & shrimp soup on the side. I don't eat the skin of chicken much, just a little but I always pull it off, chicken was bland, took a bite of skin and they season the skin not the meat so that was disappointing, soup was pretty good tho. Person who took my order was really sweet and nice as well!

    I haven't been to bayou bistro in a solid 10 years, but my boyfriend came visit and kept raving about how good every single item was on the buffet menu. He said he even loved the spaghetti, which we are very particular about! We decided to come try it out this Thursday evening and had Carmen as our server. We were sad to see that no buffet was being served tonight, but we were happy with the menu options. The menus do need a much needed face light! But that's how you know this place is about to be poppping lol I checked in on yelp and received a free desert coupon, yay! I told the server and she said they only had bread pudding, which was fine. I got the chicken Alfredo pasta and boyfriend got the seafood platter. The pasta was good, very very cheesy and runny. The red beans were good & the shrimp and corn soup was great. Boyfriend liked his seafood platter too. I almost forgot, we got cheese sticks as the appetizer and OMG! You have to get them. They were huge & so crunchy and the cheese was stringy and just delicious! We ordered a to go meal for tomorrow's lunch & we put in our free dessert bread pudding order. The bill came out before the dessert and to go food. We noticed we got charged for the bread pudding that was supposed to be free. The server was nice and went took it off. We sat and waited for to go food. Once it came out, we said our good byes, only to get home to see that the free dessert wasn't placed in our to go bag :( We were upset because we had 3 separate conversations with the waitress about the bread pudding; one showing her the coupon, one about it being on the bill, and one when to bring it with our to gos. Overall, the food is good. I really want to check out the buffet, but I gave it a 4 star for the dessert confusion. Maybe next time!

    Foo Chow Asian Buffet - 10/10 el sabor de la comida es riquísimo súper recomendado

    Foo Chow Asian Buffet

    Enjoyments * Many fresh, hot buffet dishes…read more* Excellent egg rolls, wontons, honey chicken, black pepper chicken, pot stickers, Chinese donuts * Friendly atmosphere and attentive, gracious wait staff * Good ice cream bars for dessert * Full restaurant with only moderate noise * Great price Improvements * None that I have experienced Go YELP! Because it was my first time visiting Walker, Louisiana, I shopped on Yelp for restaurants near the place where I was to meet later that night, and when I stumbled upon this Chinese/Asian spot, I had a strong feeling, based on the highly positive reviews, that I was in for a treat there. BTW, I fully enjoy Yelp's feature that enables a person to view restaurants/other businesses near a given location before the user is in that location. But, back to the grub! You know that feeling you get when you walk into a place as if you've entered your home away from home for dinner? I rarely have that experience, but both times that I've been here, I was moved by those emotions. This place simply has quite a welcoming atmosphere. Further, I think many patrons experience these feelings as the place was packed well after the lunch hour this past Sunday afternoon. In addition to the ambiance, the buffet is stocked with a bevy of selections, and I found the dishes I heaped on my plates to be hot, fresh, and delicious. The egg rolls had a crispy, light batter with flavorful veggies inside. Unfortunately, I cannot remember all the names of the chicken dishes I enjoyed, but the sesame seed chicken, the black pepper chicken, and the honey chicken dishes definitely stood out to me. Further, I found the wontons to be a hit with a slightly crispy outer shell with a balanced mix of cheese and onions on the inside. I also found the Chinese donuts (small biscuits, sprinkled with sugar) to melt in my mouth as they were not excessively doughy and didn't taste like they'd been sitting around for a couple days before hitting my plate. The mushroom and pepper steak dishes were also very good. Before leaving, I was also blessed to find and enjoy tasty vanilla ice cream bars with chocolate coating. Yummy! In addition to the delectable eats, I was pleased and appreciative of the genuine friendliness and attentiveness of the wait staff. From my arrival to my departure, the employees seemed to be truly happy to serve me and my party. Moreover, my server was punctual in both taking my drink order and in keeping it topped off. Though I find most servers/workers of Asian restaurants to be friendlier than at other American restaurants, the attitude of the staff at Foo Chow seems to be a cut above the norm. Finally, though this restaurant was packed during both my visits, amazingly, the noise is not oppressively loud. Woohoo! Though the restaurant sits a few miles outside the main BR area, its wide selection of grub, tasty dishes, affordable cost, and happy ambiance makes Foo Chow a great first try for American Chinese food lovers.

    Lots if different foods ... some Better than others…read more.. displayed ok but kind of dark inside ( always makes me wonder what they hide) saw they flunked inspection a couple times Service is ok ... not much conversation Haven't been there in a long time prob wont go back...

    Food: 5/5 (for buffet experience) Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 3.5/5 I visited this location in 2021 with my family when it was under previous ownership. The 2021 visit food was below average and service wasn't much to speak of. I live nearby and have been wanting to visit here and try the lunch buffet. I was not disappointed at all. I don't think I've eaten at a Chinese lunch buffet in the BR area that I really enjoyed. I brought my son and he is picky and he enjoyed just about everything he tried. We sampled a good variety. Side note: I've eaten at the other place at Sherwood & Coursey, just around the corner and my visit was once with no desire to return. Food: A really good variety to choose from on the buffet. They buffet is from 11am - 4pm, it's not an all day buffet. The variety they have is definitely quality over quantity. Very impressed with price of $12.99 and the quality of food. Egg roll was good, House Made Roll was excellent! The crab Rangoon was not lacking, it had ample amount of cream cheese, no skimping there. Honey Chicken was good, Sesame Chicken was excellent, had a little spice to the sweetness too. Hunan pork was excellent, beef and broccoli was the only item that was average to me. Sweet & sour chicken, friend rice, lo mein, was very good. No General Tso's or Mandarin Chicken on the buffet. Unsure if they take any requests for specific items to be placed on buffet. Service: I believe the owner was the one that greeted us and sat us at our table. Very nice, attentive, and had good small talk about FIFA World Cup. He immediately took our drink order and drinks were at our table before we returned. Ambiance: Place had a decemt ambiance to it. Very clean. I do remember the old Hunan's ambiance was cool because of the old celebrity photos on the wall that had a good amount of LSU stars. This definitely doesn't have that, but I wish it did resemble some of that, maybe one day it will. The important aspect is the great quality of the food, because I definitely wasn't there for the decor. To my surprise this place wasn't jam packed. I was nervous when I walked in because not many patrons inside, but when we left there was about 5 more tables filled. This place should be more packed.

The inside was clean, spacious, and wasn't busy, which was nice bec we weren't fighting swarms of people like at a typical buffet. I tried a little sample of just about everything. I loved how the food was hot and I'd say the chicken dishes were my favorite. I was pleased with the price, it was a little over $30 for 2 adults, which I felt was good for an AYCE buffet on the weekend. Overall, I'd recommend Hunan if you're in the mood for a fair priced delicious AYCE Chinese buffet!

    I ended up stopping by this casino as a rest stop before going to Biloxi. I came here around 9am…read more The downside is that they have no places that are opened that are eat. The place also looks run down as well, but they are making improvements there as I saw them doing some renovations. Casino size is a good size. They have 1100 machines there and a good selections of old school lots, versus new school slots. They have a drink station of soda and a refrigerator for water. I ended up putting those to good use. The bathrooms were interesting as the town did have water issues down to the winter freeze. The toilets did not flush powerfully. They have a nice lounge for Emerald and Up, I tried to use my card to access the lounge but did not work, but a nice lady let me in with hers. It has a nice couch and private bathroom. I guess if you needed to go to sleep this is the place. I came on a Saturday and it was not too busy, but it might get busy at night, I am not so sure. My Gaming experience was I was having a lot of fun. I guess when you hit a jackpot over 2K you should be having fun. I also had some good wins at the casino as well as shown in the picture. I played diamond run and enjoy the game quite a bit. I ended up getting the bonus three times. One was a dud, one was alright and one ended up being a jackpot. The high limit room was alright. They have a different kind of top dollar as there was a Blazing 7 kind. I ended up playing the machine, however no luck. I had luck at Pinball. They have a nice and friendly staff as I was helped very fast when the machine broken. There was in particular that was broken and I ended up on it. The security and staff was nice as well and kept asking me for a drink, but I told them no as soda and water is okay with me. I came here on the 2nd visit, but did not have much luck. I am not so sure if it was because I was carrying over my losing streak from Biloxi at Harrah's. But I was losing really fast there that I ended up leaving in an hour. I would definitely come back here as a pit stop and if my wife comes with me she can at least rest at the lounge. Unfortunately, you can stay at the hotel, but it is for Choice Hotel so the room rate will not be comped.

Instead of fixing the issue i was told that although it was inside of the building they were not responsible. I was handed a phone number in Canada and the employee walked off. I should not have had to jump through hoops for 2 weeks to get my money back. I was 3 hours away from home. They saw everything on camera. They could've humored me and given me complimentary play and taken it right back. Instead I was treated as if both me and my money were insignificant. Here it is 1/12/27, 17 whole days later and my funds were finally returned after they completed the same investigation that was done that day that proved that the ATM MALFUNCTIONED and that their staff and facility needs a better protocol for situations like this. How do you open up an atm, retrieve a person's card, SMILE, hand them a phone number and walk off like its business as usual??? Do your self a favor, drive the extra mile and go to another casino.
