My husband and I booked the 8:30 pm Prime Rib Buffet (90-minute dining time) on New Year's Eve, but it was a huge disappointment, especially for CAD $70 per person. When we arrived, there was no prime rib available and we were told to wait. The oyster bar closed at 9:00 pm, which was never mentioned during booking. Prime rib was brought out only once, labeled as medium rare but actually closer to well done. By around 9:20 pm, staff said food was no longer replenished. Allowing guests to book an 8:30 pm buffet when key items are unavailable is misleading. Ending New Year's Eve with this experience was extremely frustrating. Not recommended. We will not return.

Being its New Year's Eve Dinner our expectation was more, though it was supposed to be Steak and Seafood buffet the amount of items we found was less and poor and very basic. For steaks there was only Lamb which was ok but the beef was bad the pieces was very hard. Overall should have been a better buffet with more choices and for little more higher price. We enjoyed the atmosphere at the Casino at midnight more than the food.

We went for the New Years Prime Rib buffet and they ran out of Prime Rib which was extremely disappointing. Manager comped our dinner but very poor planning on their part as they knew how many reservations they had for the evening. Our server was great!

Best ever prime rib and seafood buffet. I love the lamb!!! The staff were exceptional especially JC and middle age lady with glasses and shoulder length hair. She was very attentive and always smiling. The only negative part was they advertised that seniors get a discount but during bill payment, was told no discount for seniors.

The NYE all you can eat buffet was great. The seafood was fresh and good. Loved the oyster bar. The prime rib was top notch also.

We attended the New Year's buffet again this year, having enjoyed it last year when lobster claws and crab legs were offered. Unfortunately, those items were not available this year and were replaced with oysters instead. While oysters are a nice option for some, they are not comparable in value to lobster and crab. Overall, the food selection felt less premium than last year, yet the price of the buffet had increased. Given the higher cost, we expected a similar or better selection than before. This made the experience disappointing compared to previous years. We hope Mojave Grill considers aligning pricing with the quality and variety offered in future New Year's buffets.

They advertised all you can eat seafood including crab and lobster for New Year's Eve, but did not have any crab or lobster. Very disappointing.

Weekend Buffet was too expensive with minimal selection. Cold shrimp skewer as fish open.

We had come here so many times over the last few years and loved it. Came recently and was so disappointed with the buffet brunch. The food was severely overcooked and Luke warm at best, fruit was all unripened, the selection has been cut in half, and the price has gone up! They used to have 2 tables of food selection but now have 1. There is only a single desert option which is less than 1/4 of what they had before. I have found a better selection for a lesser price in soany other amazing restaurants such as garden court at the Glenmore in (which has limited options due to the size). Definitely won't be coming back to waste money on poor quality food

The buffet food is good but the side options are extremely limited and not refilled in a timely manner. The menu food was good, except it took 35 mins to get 2 dishes. It also took 35 mins to get our drinks. We saw our waitress once. The service was friendly but VERY SLOW. Also, the amount of crying kids and toddlers running around was actually shocking- not the restaurants fault but parents not parenting was frustrating. The other casino buffet is much better with more options and no screaming kids, we will not be back to Deerfoot.
We ordered several dishes and will attest the food was very delicious, with the prices being quite reasonable. The service from everyone was awesome. Highly recommend and will be back.

Came here for the prime rib buffet, and it was great! The prime rib and pork belly were fantastic! Just wish the sides and desserts were better.

We had a great experience here for my daughter's birthday party. I would be giving it 5 stars if the communication wasn't so difficult leading up to the party date. It was very frustrating that I reached out more than 5 separate times to confirm younger sibling rates and was told they were free and totally fine to come by multiple staff members, just to be told differently the day of. Anyways, the kids absolutely adored the robot that brought them their food and everything else went very smooth!
Cathy
Experience was good. Extremely busy so drinks and food took awhile to get. Waitresses very friendly.

I was very disappointed in what I spent $50 on. The variety of sides and salad bar was sub par. I have been to other prime rib buffets that had many many more sides and options.
