Indio's best brunch buffet by far! Every time we are in Indio we stop by the whole weekend for this buffet brunch. We dined there for this past Mother's Day and Sal, the Maître d'/manager made our experience one worth remembering (as it was also our wedding anniversary). The staff is always on point and very attentive. The food offers a wide variety of cuisines, and so many choices of delicious desserts. The setting is lovely, and the display of food is always beautifully presented. We always feel like VIP as everyone is always so kind to us and seems like they go out of their way to make everyone's brunch experience a pleasant one. We go to many different restaurants, but this by far is our absolute favorite and we will continue to stop in each time we visit. Thank you, Sal, for doing such a wonderful job, you can see how happy your staff is under your direction (and by far the best dressed, poised and most professional Maitre d' around). Thank you!

This is by far the best brunch buffet in Indio. Sal, the Maître d'/manager made our anniversary celebration very special. It was also mother's day, so my wife got extra special attention. You will not be disappointed in the service. The buffet staff are wonderful. Never before have I been at a buffet where they will replace your utensils with clean ones while you're visiting the food buffet.

We come very often to the fresh grill buffet. The food is good quality and reasonable price as well. It is worth coming here for dining with many options. Waiter/waitress are very friendly and respectful. The manager, Sal, posesses high management knowledge and skills. Dining in Fresh Grill Buffet is a joyful experience.

The Fresh Grill Buffet, located in the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, offers a wide variety of cuisines, American classics, Asian dishes, fresh seafood, Italian food, and outstanding and delicious desserts!! The price of the buffet is reasonable, especially considering the amount of choices offered.
My friends and I have visited several times over the past few years and we have never been disappointed. The food has always been fresh and delicious.
Every employee is very friendly, courteous and professional. The exceptional service provided by the waitstaff is the best. They are very attentive and service-minded. You can tell that customer satisfaction is their goal. Kudos to the Buffet Manager, Sal, who is extremely accommodating and welcomes you with a smile on his face. He ensures that we are pleased with our food and service. We love celebrating special occasions at the Fresh Grill Buffet. Thank you for offering the best buffet in the Desert.

Food is overrated overpriced and it wasn't even that good no flavor really to it except for the taquitos the only thing I liked out of the whole thing and the fruit

Great restaurant with amazing food! The service is impeccable and all dishes are made with care. The buffet manager, Sal, is particularly warm, charming and make you feel very welcome! The food are always delicious and changes frequently. Do not miss the dessert bar where there are so many delicious options.

The Fresh Grill Buffet definitely lives up to its name as the food, its presentation, and the service is all first rate. The selection between both hot and cold foods is perfect too. And the desserts are incredibly yummy! Every main dish or sweet is a keeper! (I highly recommend the lemon cake!) It's become my favorite buffet in the entire Coachella Valley. Kudos to manager Sal and his entire crew!

The service is excellent, and the waiters clean your table every time you get up and always replace silverware every single time. I have never seen this done on a buffet.

Dinner was opened from 4-9 PM, arrived @ 4:05 PM, on a Friday absolutely no line/people whatsoever. Was seated by nice polite waiter who took our drink orders (2 decaf coffees), and water. Started with the salad bar mixed salad greens a little limp,went off to find sliced red onion around the corner with salmon and fixing but with no serving utensils?, asked a employee going by she brought out serving utensils. Went to get some rolls (I love bread/rolls) tried the pretzel bun roll, chibata roll, and 2 additional rolls in in another basket ALL COLD/HARD, my husband tapped one on his plate said he could chip a tooth with it. Next coffee was med warm, good but could have been "real good" if it had been hot! My favorite at a buffet is fried shrimp, or coconut shrimp I could eat a plate full. NOT THIS SHRIMP, it was OLD, CHEWY, GREASY. Was all the buffet food left over from hours of breakfast /lunch session? Did we come at the wrong time for Dinner? Does the kitchen not monitor temps and time guidelines? The cook was sawing away on the prime rib (dull knife?) and it was tough and bland even with au jus. The chicken fajitas shreds what little there was of it in the tray old/cold chewy. The meat ball with Italian red sauce awful, same for the cheese stuffed manicotti pasta. The 2 Pizzas oh my gosh, old flat limp dough, pepperoni and I think it was vegetable, YUCK. The Mexican food from the pork Chile Verde to the enchiladas to the rice. I love lamb chops but not these cold weird sauced ones. Chinese sweet sour chicken old/cold. When I say the food was old, to be specific food sitting too long in tray (over cooked/warmed). I could go one and on about the food but too sum it up I couldn't finish more than a bite at that on some items and I kept trying to find some food I could fill up on. Dessert I love rice crispy squares how in the world can they be stale, but they were. Poor selection of cookies and desserts. The topper, throughout the meal we had to listen to blaring rock music riffs while the band warming up went through sound checks. Our original waiter disappeared and finally I flagged down another server for Hot coffee he brought it hot with a foam on top? He filled our requests another two times each time calling my husband "Boss" what was that all about do employees not even know how to address the customers with Sir or Mama. Cold, or over warmed, tough, canned, freezer/refrig tasting, stale/hard, food to sun it up.
The food is DELICIOUS! ? they have a lot to choose from there's also a lot of great options for picky and healthy eaters. The staff is very nice and makes sure your cup is always full and that you have clean silverware every time they pick up your dishes so your not eating different food with the same dirty silverware.
Parking: There's plenty of parking depending on the time you go the later the harder it is to find a space.
Kid-friendliness: I did see a few kids eating with their parents and they were enjoying their food
First time here we Absolutely Loved it! Very clean service is Great, Everyone is Friendly. Food was Amazing Desserts even Better!

Both food and the waiter staff were great. However, the staff at the front can use some improvement on customer service skills. No type of greeting whatsoever. Every buffet has some differences, so it's typically customary to ask if this is your first time visiting and give a quick useful rundown for first timers. We didn't get such treatment.
