The macaroni and cheese was really creamy and pretty good. Jake’s second plate involved more orange chicken (which was Jake’s favorite thing). It had a nice flavor from the sticky sweet glaze on it but it was a little salty. That’s how I knew about the bacon bits being real bacon. The food looked fresh, tasty, and very appealing. The smaller portions mean they have to cook items more often which means fresher food gets put out more often. I noticed that there were a bunch of cooks right behind the lines and they all seemed to be constantly cooking and preparing dishes. There are tons of options here at the Valley View Casino Buffet! What I really liked is that everything is in smaller portions at this buffet. The Asian food area of the buffet is upon us. Ahem.ĭon’t those little carrots look so pretty?! Such small little bowls of food! Makes the presentation look a lot nicer than some other buffets we’ve been to. Those sweet potatoes look like they just came off of someone’s Thanksgiving table! I was sad to see they have evil raisins in there, but I got some anyway.

Plus a stuffed lobster thing, if you’re into stuffed things. Mushroom pasta and some fresh looking broccolini. More salads plus avocado quarters! Yeah, one of those avocado slices went right onto my plate. I liked how everything was in a smaller size bowl. They have real bacon as bacon bits, not that fake wannabe crap. Prepare yourself for an ONSLAUGHT of buffet photos. No one really wants to buffet at 11am except for us, I guess. Mom told us the best time to go was when it first opened so there wouldn’t be a line. Thanks, Mom, for being a big time player. Mom gets a ride to the casino while Jake and I get to feast! Normally the buffet (which features lobster!) costs $32.99 on the weekends so this was a DEAL. Last month my mom had the great idea to treat Jake and I to “free” buffet at Valley View Casino.
