    Really good food. Lots to choose from. We are traveling and it beats what we have at home for a Chinese buffet.

    Really nice building, but sometimes the food can be bland. Typical Asian buffet.

    This is a great $5.50 buffet. Always hit it when I am in the area. The usual stuff, but cheap. Pretty clean, pleasant servers.

    I was very impressed with the fact that on the stir fry dishes, the veggies were slightly undercooked, which is good because they can finish cooking on the steam table and not get all soggy.

    We spent over $300 to take our extended family out to a nice meal. Not one of the 8 of us had a…read morenice meal. The steak? Overcooked no matter how you ordered it? Prime rib? about a 1/4 thick and well done, no matter how you ordered it. The cinnamon bread? Overcooked and burnt. The salad bar had wilted lettuce and was just sad overall. The side salads were actually better and we should have all just had that for dinner!! The service was amazingly slow. Like 45-60 minutes to get our meals when the restaurant was not that busy. My husband even spoke with the manager to tell them that it was just an awful meal. If you read the reviews over the last year, this is obviously a problem but they haven't fixed anything, so obviously they don't care. I would recommend finding another restaurant and not coming here.

In fifty-five years of flying, I have smelled enough jet fuel, 100 LL, and burnt coffee. Enough to see too many things change, but not on this day and this trip. Indeed, I'd dined at the Packinghouse back in 1986. They've been open since 1978, and I recognized it immediately. Then, as now, the place looks the same and the food was remarkable. My co-star and I sampled the inviting salad bar, and he opted for the broiled steak covered in mushrooms. I had the shrimp scampi, which was spectacular and enough for two normal people. Our only disappointment was that the highly touted bread pudding had been exhausted. Hence, we settled our stomachs on the chocolate lava conflagration that helped put things into perspective. The ambiance was an interesting mix of nostalgia and packing plant apparatus. Being a vegetarian, I wasn't offended by what happened there since 1912. The still-active railroad station is just across the street, which made sense for the building's original purpose. Our server was a local historian who enhanced our visit with her perspectives. Yes, the HOJO where I stayed in 1986 is long gone, but the Packinghouse is still doing what it does best. I must also mention that downtown Galesburg is an inviting anachronism reflecting the old America that I grew up with. There are interesting stores and other attractions. Galesburg is also home to Knox College, and was the venue for one of the Lincoln-Douglas debates back when debates were really debates and not Kabuki Dances.

We ordered the surf and turf with an extra lobster tail, the 22 oz ribeye steak dinner, two sundaes, and the French onion soup. The French onion soup was a bit too salty for our taste, and the ribeye was slightly dry for our liking. Our son practically drank his surf and turf and lobster tail, so it's safe to say he loved his meal! The ice cream and strawberry purée were also delicious. The dining area was clean and nicely maintained. Overall, we'd definitely come back, now knowing which items suit our taste best.

    A True Hidden Gem in Galesburg - Craft on Seminary…read more We had an outstanding experience this evening at Craft on Seminary in Galesburg. From start to finish, everything was top-shelf. We sat at the bar and were taken care of by Amanda and Adam, whose service was absolutely exceptional -- professional, attentive, and genuinely friendly. We've been to Craft a few times now. Our first visit under the new management didn't quite live up to our expectations, but this second visit was an entirely different story. The food, service, and overall experience were all exceptional -- you can really feel the team hitting their stride. We started with the Prime Fillet Carpaccio and the CHEZ Willis Calamari, and both were fantastic. Perfectly fresh, balanced, and not over-seasoned -- just clean, well-executed flavors that let the quality of the ingredients shine. The atmosphere strikes that ideal fine dining tone without feeling stuffy -- the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy a great meal, and appreciate true craftsmanship in both the kitchen and behind the bar. We truly hope more people discover Craft on Seminary -- it's the kind of place that deserves to thrive. If you're anywhere near Galesburg, make a point to stop in. You won't be disappointed.

Small buffet not what I was expecting Ok on to the food First small plate samples: White Rice and lomein noodles And sample a bit of everything Plastic plates and plastic silverware Big butterfly jumbo shrimp silver dollar size! No shrimp sauce Real good as is! The chicken pot stickers were spot on perfect! Rice was spot on jasmine rice awesome flavor! Lo mein wow outstanding! I could have made a meal out of those two things! Chicken broccoli check! And good Steak and onions with green peppers check but I only did the steak and onions as green peppers are not an out of town road food for me Really good Some cashew chicken I did not see any nuts but it was a little warm on the spice Egg drop soup well mine is better lol But a dash of soy sauce to flavor it And was ok. Second trip more of the same. Hot day so just the small sampling Drinks are serve yourself and included in the 15 dollar price Yea I would stop again if I was in the area But not a destination place for me

    Review Visit: July 11th, 2016…read more Situated on the border of Iowa and Illinois sits the Casino/Hotel/Spa that is known as Catfish Bend. It offers a small, but quaint casino that is lucky to have a Smoking/Non-Smoking section, based on your tobacco needs. There is a bar in the center of the casino that serves $1 bottles on Mondays (based on my experience) after 4pm. Nearby is Fun City, so if you are up here on a family vacation, you can have fun with the kids all day at Fun City and then pop over to Catfish Bend for some adult entertainment.

    I worked at Catfish Bend Casino for 2 years. When they were…read morebought out and rebranded as great river casino a lot of the current employees were concerned things would change. The new management cared about only one thing. Moving their people in. Hundreds of employees were fired or encouraged to quit. If you want to go and have a good time at fun-city it is amazing if you have kids or even as an adult. Quite a lot of activities and food and games. If you want to lose some money the gaming floor is great if you don't mind a ton of smoke in your face as they even allow it at the tables. I recommend avoiding Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday night in case you worry about a drunk spilling a beer on you. If you want some food the property offers a lot of options and I ate at all of them during my time there. Very good food. If you want to support a business that takes care of and respects their employees? I wouldn't go to Great River Casino.
