    I'm not sure why I took this picture.
    Dan M.

    After going through the zig-zag line thing, I approached the lady at the counter and said, "Hi. How much his the buffet?" She saw me holding two $10 vouchers from playing in the poker tournaments and said, "That'll cover it." She took the coupons and then asked, "Do you want to leave a tip?" "Why would I leave a tip if I don't know what the service is like yet?" "Go over there and she'll seat you." She pointed to her left. I was seated, asked for a water, and I got some food. After spending a lot of time trying to figure out what was safe to eat, I returned to my table and there was no water. Now I had a situation. I had nasty food with no water. And two old and crotchety dudes at the next table kept looking over to see if I was wasting my food. I very slowly took a bite of the chicken, which was barely ok. I took one bite of the roast beef and one bite of the turkey. They both tasted like they had just come out of the dryer. Best way I can describe it. For $20, I ended up eating two packages of saltine crackers, two cucumbers, two cherry tomatoes, one bite of roast beef, and one bite of turkey. The water arrived after I inquired about it, but it was too late. No tip. Very rare for me but I don't tip for bad service. And the food sucked. Not recommend! You are much better off going to Bistro 24 on the Golden Moon side of the property.

On average, I'll go home with more money than I brought maybe about one in every eight visits. Some of the mechanical machines need maintenance on the buttons. Played three today that the "max bet" button didn't work on. Cocktail waitresses Jory Jane and Jasmine have been very nice and are a valuable asset to the casino. As for food, Stats has decent food and is reasonably priced, but some of the staff has been very rude at times, up to the point where we've started leaving to go to the nearby restaurants for food. (Not Edison or Garrison though. They've been great) Phillip M's is impressive. Great food and fine dining. Prime steak. It's pricey, but good, if you want a memorable meal or for a special occasion. Plan to wait awhile. Took more than 45 minutes to get our food last week & our bill was well over $100 for two people. The rooms I've stayed in at Silverstar were outdated but acceptable, but are waaay overpriced on Friday or Saturday nights, which eliminates me staying there on those nights. The rooms need to be comparable with the nearby hotels, in price and in quality. I always end up staying at the hotels down the road instead after going to their convention center concerts. We've decided to start going to other casinos for awhile instead of this one, primarily due to the lack of wins. It's No fun if you almost always go home the loser. What's a game if you never win? We've been coming around twice a month for over 5 years, but now we're going to be going elsewhere, where hopefully the winnings are better. My friend has only had ONE relatively "small" hand pay in over five years, and we've been coming here every other weekend. Not too impressive.

    Before the opening of the Silver Star Casino in 1994 the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians were a…read morepoor group of indigenous peoples. The main reservation is located on Highway 16, west of Philadelphia, MS. Pockets of their tribe live in the surrounding area, ownership which became part of the reservation. Innovation & vision by a businessman elected Tribal Chief led to construction of the Silver Star Casino & Hotel, which opened in 1994. A portion of the profits went back to tribal members, which immediately raised their standard of living. Choctaw Central, the school system for the reservation, immediately attracted the best teachers with the high salaries. Not only did the casino provide jobs for the reservation, it also provided well paying jobs for the surrounding small towns. Driving down the rural road in Mississippi, as one would approach the Silver Star, it felt like you were entering the "Twilight Zone". (Are any of you young enough to remember that TV series?). In the midst of rural land there stood a glitzy Las Vegas style casino & hotel with a marquee featuring big name talent. Life had changed for Neshoba & Newton counties. Entertainment was provided for east central Mississippi & western Alabama. I remember driving around the parking lot just to see the license plate locations of the people who had come to gamble. Busses were sent to towns for day trips to the casino. Limos were sent to the casinos on the Mississippi River to pick up high rollers. The reservation is not considered a part of the county. So liquor became available in the dry Neshoba County. Upscale restaurants surround the casino floor. But I love the buffet, which offers all you can eat homestyle Southern Cooking. Breakfast is phenomenal at the buffet. Shopping is located in the area between the hotel & casino floor. A Spa provides an additional amenity. Since we own my Grandfather's home & farmland about 15 minutes south, the draw of the casino floor became old. We would go for food & entertainment, some of which was located in stage areas on the casino floor. Once parking behind the Neshoba house after driving back from my Mother's house in town, we could see the laser show at the casino vividly in the rural darkness. My late husband, who wasn't familiar with the area, thought it was a UFO. :) Over the years the area has expanded. The Golden Moon was built across the road from the Silver Star providing new restaurants and a bar in the dome atop the structure where you can view a lot of Neshoba County. Additions also include 2 championship golf courses and a water park. In recent years a smaller Casino was opened in southern Mississippi. Another is planned for Louisville, MS. The complex is now called Pearl River Resort & the reservation is Choctaw, MS. After the majority of the tribe was forced to relocate to Oklahoma in the 1820's by the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek, the remaining indigenous population deserves this prosperity.

    Public Safety Alert: Menu Misrepresentation, Undisclosed Pork Concealed in Cajun Pasta at Bistro 24…read more On July 4, 2026, during a holiday trip from Georgia (5+ hour drive), my fiancée and I dined at Bistro 24 at Pearl River Resort. Having abstained from pork for over 30 years, I trusted the menu when ordering Cajun Pasta--a meatless base with a paid Chicken add-on. Unbeknownst to us, pork sausage was heavily concealed inside the thick Alfredo sauce and vegetable base. We elected carry-out containers after eating several bites and returned to our room with the intentions of getting some much needed rest. Hours later, my fiancée suffered acute gastrointestinal distress. I called front desk to be connected to Bistro 24, in hope of speaking directly to a manager or food representative, to no avail. Moments later I suffered severe biological rejection resulting in acute emesis upon our bedding. At that time I requested housekeeping. We were forced to get dressed and leave our room at the Silver Star Hotel to address the issue in-person at Bistro 24 inside the Golden Moon Casino. We confronted the manager and Executive Chef. The Chef openly admitted, in front of the manager, that he intentionally added pork sausage to the base because "everyone was asking for it to be", despite omitting it from the menu. This was a deliberate decision to alter a dish without disclosing a restricted protein. We filed an on-property complaint with resort security (Officer Iris, badge #47). Post-departure, we sent emailed complaints. Risk Management sent a Certified Mail package offering a nominal $500 each, conditional upon signing a Confidential Release Form. We rejected it. I offered a final window for them to outline their corrective menu policies, but they chose total silence. CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING: I urge anyone with severe food allergies, religious/spiritual beliefs, or dietary restrictions to exercise extreme caution here. When a kitchen intentionally conceals pork inside a base sauce without labeling it, it creates a high-risk environment. You cannot trust this menu. Due to the resort's total lack of accountability, I am formally escalating this to the Choctaw Gaming Commission and the Office of the Tribal Chief for a full regulatory audit. We intend to exhaust all available means to protect public safety from corporate entities that fail to acknowledge grievances and operate outside of policies meant to protect the public.

The casino is clean and the gaming floor isn't overwhelming like some and was easy to navigate and it's non smoking on the floor, has plenty of machines and card tables. Inside the Golden Moon is a small store for drinks for chips, candy and merchandise; a coffee and sweets shop, bar area, golf shop, small clothing boutique, large convention room, a pool (covered and uncovered) and plenty of great restaurants within the casino (service is usually slow).

The bathroom walls were dirty, the and there were sticky spots on the floor. At these prices, guests should not have to question whether their room was thoroughly cleaned before they arrived. Unfortunately, this experience was enough for us to say we will not stay at the Golden Moon again, and we certainly cannot recommend it to friends or family. Our advice to others will be to make the drive to Tunica instead. When you charge premium prices, the room--and especially the cleanliness--should reflect that price.
