    Store bought dessert
    James S.

    The buffet has been on and off since Covid, this was one of my favorite places to eat. When I heard it reopened we went tonight for dinner what a surprise greeting at the counter. The hostess must have been around when the Avi first opened basically clueless over charging for the buffet. After finding a table I immediately went to the Prime Rib Station and to my surprise hits precut thin sitting in au jus for 3 hours. I asked for a piece of medium rare from the kitchen no can do. Asked to see the Chef he exited through the back door. The place was empty lack luster. For $24 a person buffet they had the combination of breakfast and dinner together. No French fries just chips, no coconut shrimp, no bake potato. A small piece of chicken (frozen) cordon blue, Tilapia, dried pork shredded BBQ. The Mexican section the chicken looked spoiled sitting its juices not refrigerated. The variety of desserts looks like they came from Smith's supermarket. The place was emptied and the staff was slow to refill your drinks. The ambiance was horrible. I recommend stay away the only reason it's open they are remodeling another kitchen. Finally the so called Chefs wearing the jackets look like a street gang with all the tattoos dressed in white jackets, but very polite with their hands tied to serve substandard food. I felt sorry for them. I would have given no stars just a half they are lucky to get one.

    See photos below,,, They express my opinion only of the quality and service we received at Avi Resort's Native Harvest Buffet on Thanksgiving Day 2023. The one photo is the advertisement of the Thanksgiving buffet from Avi's Facebook page,,, The other photo is an actual photo of the turkey we were offered that day. QUITE A DIFFERENCE! Needless to say, our party was extremely disappointed and will not go back,

    After eating here on Friday night for their famous crab legs, we decided to come back for brunch and dinner. Yes, we ate here 3 times in a row. I posted the crab leg buffet Friday nights under Avi Casino Buffet, accidentally, but either way, I think the crab legs deserved its own review. Now on to the not so good. Their food for brunch and dinner, not counting Friday's, was pretty horrible. BRUNCH: Where should I start? Their food was either too salty or bland. The French toast and pancakes were cold and tasteless. The menudo and refried beans tasted like it came from a can, which it probably did. The bacon was overly salty. The machaca was dry and too greasy. I did enjoy their coffee, French fries, canned fruit and cottage cheese. DINNER: They offer prime rib and fried shrimp on Saturdays. The prime rib was over done, tasteless and dry. The fried shrimp was okay. I had some pasta with cream sauce and added the chicken from the salad section and that was good. Their mashed potatoes were yummy. Dessert was horrible except for the dessert at the flambé station. You must get dessert from the flambé station. The staff was friendly except for some of the people at the stations. They looked over worked and were quite grumpy. I understand though, it must be tough working at a buffet with a bunch of hungry people. Our waiters for brunch and dinner were great.

    Why don't we EVER check reviews before going into these places!?! The food is disgusting, dried out, greasy, no selection, it's 12:25 and there only dried out breakfast items remaining alongside some old battered cod and dried out taco meat. This buffet looks like it went through hell and back. Here comes the chef the lady behind the counter says! Which chef? Chef Boyardee can cook better than this guy. The ARCO's AM/PM has a better selection in Needles, AZ. Luckily the manager gave us a refund and we walked out without having to suffer from any buffet-arrhea! AVOID! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

    I came here with my two kids and my husband we really wanted to try the crab legs but they didn't have them but I tried the prime rib it was delicious. Then I noticed they had shrimp scampi so I decided to get some. The cook Ana she was the one who made the shrimp scampi it was very delicious I noticed that people where ordering ice cream with fruits so once I was done eating I decided to try it out I got the blackberries and strawberries with vanilla ice cream it was delicious. I just want to point out that Ana is an amazing cook and she has excellent customer service she was so kind and sweet and this is what made eating a beautiful experience. Thank you Ana. I hope to come back soon. I hope we get to have Ana cook for us again.

    A nice buffet with a large selection of food. A great deal on half price Thursday. Would readily recommend it to all.

We had a hard time finding anything that tasted fresh. Most of the food was either fried or heavily covered in sauce, and there weren't many lighter or freshly prepared options. The hibachi station was especially disappointing because it was out of meats every time we went back, making it difficult to actually enjoy one of the main attractions of the restaurant. While the prices are relatively inexpensive, I still felt it was expensive for the quality of the food we received. In the end, none of us ate very much, and we ended up going somewhere else for dinner afterward. The customer service was perfectly fine, and the staff was courteous. However, one thing that really stood out in a negative way was a young man handling food who had extremely long fingernails on both hands. That's simply not something I want to see from someone preparing or serving food I'll be eating. I hope they improve the freshness of the food and keep the hibachi station consistently stocked, because the restaurant has potential. As it stands, though, it just wasn't an experience our family would repeat.

As far as I am concerned, this is the best Mexican food on either side of the Colorado. Starting with the freshly made corn and flour tortillas (I usually eat flour tortillas, but at El Charro, I will choose corn tortillas 99.9% of the time.) The chips are terrific with two salsas brought to the table. The Choriqueso is a cheesy deliciousness. I am not really a pozole fan, but here, it is very good and really has an awesome taste. I always get their menudo. Lots of honey comb and a good ratio of corn to meat. For me, the fact that I can get pata is great because it is becoming harder to find many restaurants that will provide you with that delicacy. I always alternate between their different tacos and this time I got a tripa taco. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it is great here. Well fried and crispy and with their hotter salsa spread over it, with fresh tortilla, I am in heaven. From my first trip to this restaurant, I have always loved the atmosphere of the restaurant. It truly feels like a great little Mexican restaurant and I am happy to see they have expanded. I envy all you folks who live in Bullhead City and have easy access to this restaurant. I live in Phoenix and no trip to Laughlin is complete without a stop to El Charro.

Our server answered all of our questions and allowed us all to make special orders. My mother-in-law is obsessed with chili relleno and she said this place did them perfectly. The Mexican rice is very tasty as well. The quesadilla was very cheesy and packed with flavor. But the carnitas and steak fajitas were disappointing. There was not enough char or sizzle, the dish was flavorless despite having all the ingredients that should make it really delicious. The refried beans didn't have enough salt, guac was plain, the soup that comes with the entree was watery and the side salad wasn't appetizing. The restaurant is quite large and was nicely decorated. Everything seemed clean.
