Veggies and side Turnip greens Mashed potatoes Mac and cheese Cabbage Corn Rutabaga Pinto beans Green beens Rice Entrees Spaghetti Baked chicken Fried chicken Pulled pork Fried fish Buffalo Bites Chicken and Dumplings Chicken livers Also turnip soup Salad bar Rolls, cornbread and a bunch of desserts. One interesting thing is that while it is all you can eat, they serve it cafeteria style. So you tell them what you want and they put it on the plate. This must have changed since COVID. You used to be able to serve yourself. The food is good, but it taste like someone is cooking scared. Nothing had any seasoning. Nothing popped with flavor. No smoke on the pulled pork (I got outside meat to be able to taste it) Bland spaghetti, bland chicken and dumplings, bland greens, bland, bland, bland - except for the fried chicken and fried fish which were okay, compared to the rest. Service was not overly friendly, or even friendly either. Pretty much here's your seat, here's your drink. I would probably come back one more time. Definitely will not come back if the next time is like this time. 2 1-2 stars is what I would give it. Rounding up to 3 in memory of a place that used to be a lot better.

    5/11/2026: We drove over from Pensacola Beach on a rainy day to check this casino out. I was happy…read moreto find the Frankenstein and Wizard of Oz slots, but unfortunately, that's where the excitement ended. There are no table games here, and drink service is strictly automated via a button on the machines. On the positive side, the facility was very clean, and the staff we did encounter were friendly--though we rarely saw them. For dining, they have a food court setup for $20 a person that includes Italian, Asian, and American options with a fountain drink counter. A heads-up if you go on a "Senior Sunday" (ages 50+): the announcer was incredibly loud. Overall, it was nothing spectacular. Out of the three of us, only one friend walked away a winner, and even then, it was pretty minor.

Most recent visit was to celebrate my birthday (2025). This was a girl's weekend with my mom. We shared the double queen with a fridge and nice seating area. A nice surprise when entering were the balloons and card by the staff along with my gifts from my mom. The bed was nice and soft and the bathroom was clean with plenty of towels. Once settled in, we went down to enjoy the food at the Market that has several food stations that is sure to satisfy your tastebuds and while not one to hit the machines heavily, I did take advantage of the free play. I plan to visit agin and maybe check out the movie theater, bowling alley or enjoy some time at the spa.
