There's no more "legendary" cheap good breakfasts here, they send everyone away and don't even open til 1000 or something now.....huge waste of my time!! 👎

Parking: Almost impossible to pull a 40ft Class A in and out of there, insane curbs everywhere, five point turns necessary to get yourself back out, and the only large enough spaces to maneuver in and out of and park, are all blocked off with Handicapped, about twenty of the spaces, which go completely unused for the most part, bad location, bad parking for some driving a full sized vehicle 💯👎

It reminds me of how I remember restaurants when I was young. The price of drinks are pre-pandemic. (Under 4 dollars for coffee and soft drinks)

Kid-friendliness: It's in a casino!

Food was fine for the price. The atmosphere felt dated, but I don't know if that's intended, it could be.

The service was mediocre, and the woman who seated us had an attitude. Because of these things, I searched reviews while sitting in the restaurant.

This is a reply I came upon by the owner. It is incredibly unprofessional, but the vibe matched the owner's attitude on the reply. It's rare to see businesses talking down to its customers, but this one has no problem with it.

Not recommended.

Obviously, to get to this location you have to pass through a casino that smells like giving up on life. The food is typical dinner fare, which was what we were after, wanting to experience this post of Americana. However, the staff were extraordinarily kind. One wanted to stay there despite the odd odors just to enjoy the company of these lovely people. I'm not being sarcastic (well, the last sentence).

They don't know how to cook Prime Rib here. I returned the dish twice. I am very disappointed. I do not recommend it to Prime Lovers.

Ok here we go the problem!!

I only ordered a prime rib medium rare..

The first dish they brought me was not rare, it was overcooked and I told them that this was not the one I ordered and they brought me another one that was worse. I ordered the king cut and that's why this place doesn't know how to cook prime rib..

For me it will be the last time I visit this casino and I do not recommend it to those of us who really love Prime Rib…
