I would just advise for food you stick with pizza and IHOP in the casino and save your money for the tables because the 'upscale' food is not anything to test your palette on. We enjoyed the rest of our stay over the weekend and really do recommend the Casino and hotel. I must say again that this is not worth the price to eat at this place. My alfredo sauce was gummy like it had been sitting on the noodles for and hour before it made it to the table. The pasta was nicely cooked but the sauces were bland and under seasoned. The food while plated beautifully was all reheated sauces with no spice, and over cooked proteins. This was however were the good pretty much ended. The calamari was cook perfectly and the family style table salad had a nice tangy but not overly acrid vinaigrette that we were all happy to have. We ordered many items on the menu and waited with great anticipation for our meal. The atmosphere was quaint and for a group of 8 they were very accommodating and quick at setting up a table for us. We thought the next day we would go with the bit more classy Vino's Italian for lunch before we left. I will say that it is not worth the wait or the $25 per person to eat there. As the bio states, I do not like to write bad about a place because anyone can have a bad day, however this food was way past a bad day. We waited 2.5 hours in line to get to to a buffet that was not what we had remembered. It seem the inability to find good help has hit the casino hard.

This past weekend however this was not the case. the steak, prime rib, and many other items were vibrant and well season happy little additions to your plate. Three years ago this was an experience in itself. This was not a hot day so I only had one and decided it was time to head inside for the all you can eat buffet in side the casino.

I had the Mojito as I really like the minty freshness on hot days. If you have not been to the hotel here, there is a bar and wait staff at the pool that you can order great drinks and nice wines from too. The pool was a bit cold considering that the sun just did not want to peek out for us that day, but we soldiered on anyway. The hotel was friendly clean, and very comfortable as always. We haven't been in 3 years so we were really looking forward to it. This past weekend my family stayed at the Windstar for some fun and food.
