    Thank you Holy for excellent service. Lobster night is the best!!! It's a must try and visit. Unlimited lobster , but requires maybe a week of reservation. No walk-ins for sure. Expect to like for 30 Minutes if you're non- elite. It's worth it! $80 pp.

    Crab legs, yum!

    Extensive array of food offerings. Make sure you make a reservation online prior to secure a table. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    Something seemed fishy and boy was i right. I made an advance reservation for the all-you-can-eat lobster buffet at 9:00 PM, expecting that my reservation would be honored. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing from the moment we arrived. After driving through three hours of traffic and not eating beforehand because I planned on enjoying the buffet, we were forced to stand in a long, crowded line for almost two hours. During that time, I personally witnessed the line barely move. In fact the line advanced all of five people and that was only because people got tired of waiting and left the line. Myself and the other guests were eventually told we may or may not even be seated, despite having reservations. Because of how poorly the situation was being handled, I called the casino's main line and asked to speak with a manager. The manager came to speak with me while I was still waiting in line and listened to my concerns about how unfairly everyone was being treated. The "solution" offered was that we would all be seated, but only allowed 15 minutes to eat. I asked if we could take food to go since we were being rushed through no fault of our own, and I was told no. What made the situation worse was that when I looked inside the dining area, there appeared to be plenty of seating and staff available. It felt like the line was being held back because of a food shortage rather than because the restaurant was actually full. When we were finally seated, we had only 15 minutes to eat. The whole lobsters that were advertised were not available. Instead, we were served lobster tails, fried shrimp, and mashed potatoes along with very few items to choose from. Just as I suspected, there was very little left to offer. Guests who had hoped to enjoy dessert were left with ice cream because everything else was gone. This was poor management, poor planning, and a very disappointing way to treat customers who made reservations and waited patiently. After the long drive, the long wait, the rushed seating, and the lack of advertised food, this experience left a very bad taste in my mouth. I would not recommend Serrano Buffet unless they seriously improve how they manage reservations, crowd control, and food availability.

    Regular here at Serrano Buffet;)

    Was Happy to be welcome ba Friendly Face @the register & she back from her needed vacation . Supervisor Adriana help & assisting her Team with a lot of customers this AM. Sadly to say since I don't see Chef Chang@ Asian station were the oatmeal &Grits are located. This Morning sooo LUMPY! The line cook is their just walking around not checking if oatmeal or grits needed to be diluted Sad not consistent with how being serve. I posted new hours of operations:) Only thing that was good today was seeing & being assisted by Supervisor herself at the register was Adriana. Most of the food I gotten wasn't warm. Unless got lucky with the Sesame Balls was warm & soft. Kinda forgotten with drinks. Since she was training someone new. Maybe better next time:(

    AYCE Lobster Thursdays Special
    Joan M.

    We recently celebrated my husband's birthday along with my brother and sister-in-law's anniversary at the Serrano Buffet, and it was such a memorable experience! For $79.99 per person, the AYCE lobster (available every Wednesday and Thursday) is absolutely worth it. The lobsters just kept coming, and everything was fresh and delicious. Aside from the lobster, they offer a wide variety of options--from salads, shrimp, soups, and a pasta bar to teppanyaki and an impressive selection of desserts. There's definitely something for everyone! A tip: reservations are a must unless you're okay with waiting for a while. Special shoutout to our server, Dewi! She was incredibly attentive, friendly, and always had a warm smile. She truly made us feel welcomed and valued throughout our visit. Serrano Buffet is very lucky to have her--A+ service all the way and definitely 5 stars for Dewi! We also really appreciated how they made an effort to recognize birthdays and anniversaries, and we never felt rushed during our time there. It made the celebration even more special. Thank you, Serrano Buffet, for such a wonderful and memorable dining experience--we'll definitely be back!

    Lobster Wednesdays Special
    Mari J.

    we usually cone here on seafood buffet night Wednesday and Thursday, the lobster is pretty good and selection are ok. Its in Casino, lower level area. The price is $79.95 but if you have a players card, it can be discounted and probably free. My favorite is the Ice cream area and cake area

    I asked for scrambled eggs and ham and cheese and they made it nice tasty and fresh. It was so yummy.

    I had a wonderful experience at Serrano Buffet today. The customer service was fast, friendly, and attentive, and the food was fresh and delicious. I always enjoy eating at the buffet, and today's visit did not disappoint. Thank you to the staff for making it such an enjoyable dining experience. I look forward to coming back again soon!

    Seafood night at the Serrano Buffet inside Yaamava' Resort & Casino definitely hit the spot tonight! The crab legs were fresh and delicious as always, and they even had posole which honestly surprised me because it was actually really good. They also had New York steak -- it was decent, just needed a little more seasoning for my taste. Overall the food selection was amazing and there was something for everyone. The customer service here is always top tier too. Staff was super friendly, attentive, and kept everything clean and stocked. Definitely a great spot for seafood lovers!

    The Serrano Buffet at the Yaamava Casino is serious about providing delicious food, excellent service, and an overall positive dining experience. There is something for everyone as this buffet has a variety of food choices from pizzas, pastas, salads, seafood, Chinese food, Mexican food, pastries, etc, and it is surprisingly well prepared, fresh, and delicious. The servers at this place are truly AMAZING! They are hard workers and constantly check every table to make sure guests have everything they may want or need. Each server must easily average 10,000 steps per shift while working nonstop. The vibe here is upbeat and fun, as guests can be heard laughing and seen smiling as they enjoy the wide variety of food. Tip: You MUST make an online reservation via the Yaamava app to dine at this buffet.

    I love the casino plus the buffet is good. I use my free points on my yaamava card so, it's free! I love the pizza, carving stations but the omelette station is my favorite. So fresh and so hot! There are several options for desserts as well. The gelato is delicious! My server was attentive and nice. The not so good things are the lines to get it can be long and you will wait for a period of time. And you HAVE to make a reservation! But overall I enjoy it!

    8/25/2025 Breakfast Hour. I am just now going through my draft for the year Carlos & Kathleen gave exceptional service, with refills and cleaning my table . As usual breakfast selections had some great choices, from made to order omelets/ eggs cooked on site to your liking . An array of different types of Asians / Mexicans / American dishes to choose from. My only complaint was the Asian food section, the soups need refills more frequently. Menu is updated seasonally which is nice , knowing I don't have to worry about eating the same stuff every time I go.

    Dessert
    Joyce F.

    Did the Saturday seafood dinner this time. The crab legs are fresh and well stacked. Fresh pasta and noodles are cooked to your liking. Everything we had was tasty. From appetizers to dessert. Nishi, our server always makes sure we have everything we need. Will be back more often.

    Meh Lobsters and super Meh sushi

    We made reservations for breakfast, and it seemed to be getting more misses than hits during our most recent trip to their Serrano Buffet. On top of that, the guest that is next to our table has no adequate table manners. He blew his nose several times so loud, and it was disgusting while we were eating next to them. I waited almost more than 25 mins to have my omelette made. The worker was nice that made my omelette, but he overcooked it, and it didn't taste that good, for waiting that long. Our main server was taking a break and her breaker was more attentive to other tables than ours. Even the obnoxious guest got better service, but I didn't see them leaving any tips, LMAO. I also asked for additional beverages, but it seemed like her communication wasn't too attentive. Even though we got subpar service and a bad dining experience, we still left a tip.

    I don't think so. We just go eat and leave. The most we been there was an hour.

    Since the resort's opening, are kids allowed to go to the Serrano Buffet? I went there last year, only to be turned down because I have my kids with me (5,10, and 18).

    No kids allowed. Only 21 years and up are permitted to go inside and to the buffet. I learned this a few years ago when I took my daughter who was 18 @ the time.

    How do I Cancel reservation?

    On app or call.

    Is there a snow crab leg on Thursday evening?

    Yes

    I've tried to book a reservation for later this month. It doesn't allow me. Is that because we can only rsvp one week before or it'll full? TIA

    Yes, you have to be in line, anyway it won't take you that long, it's just that they are always in order and they are very organized, and because you have to be in line in order to pay first before you enter.

    I tried making a reservation as soon as the new day opened up at 8 am and there weren't any availability. How early do I need to wake up to reserve?

    Depends I was fortunate one morning but it was on a Wednesday. I made reservations that same morning. They tell you the night before. That place gets packed. So if you did it… Read more

    Would love to make a reservation for the Lobster Buffet, but there are none available for dinner the entire month? I'm worried about taking an older couple who will have trouble standing in line. The phone number goes unanswered. Should I risk it?

    Make a reservation, even if it's for 2 months from now. Don't risk just walking in. If you want to speak to someone, ask for Client/Customer Service. They pride themselves in helping guest with all types of services, including reservations.
