Watershed Restaurant & Lounge

While staying at the hotel several times we have tried this buffet for Breakfast, very good omelets make to order you are given a order form when you sit down to choose what you would like on your omelet, I hadn’t seen that they limit how many items you can choose to fill your omelet (I think it was 3 fillings) till after I ordered but it came back with everything I checked on the list.
They start you off with a small basket of freshly made mini doughnuts that are YUM! You can easily eat way to big of a breakfast here, I was here during a weekday and everything was fresh and yummy, I cant speak for the weekend brunch. The price was not to bad either I think $ 8.99 pp with our Totem club discount.
As for dinner buffet unfortunately brings rating down a bit, not a huge selection of main dishes. They have a salad bar-​alright, a carving station– there was never a person manning anytime I went up there, most of the hot veggie and pasta items looked a bit dried out, as well the Asian selections, and the maid dishes where just OK.
The cake and cobbler selections were just OK also, but at least the have the soft serve ice cream machine with several toppings to choose from.
The waitstaff was always very quick to clean up our used plates and refill drinks, brought us fresh rolls with our meal. Price for dinner I think was $ 13.99 after Totem club discount during weeknight.

This is my second time coming to the watershed restaurant. Today we tried the buffet. We were very disappointed. There was such a limited selection, salmon was dry and food was tasteless. Next time we will try the Tulalip casino buffet… I would’ve stuck with Katie’s kitchen had I known. Mindy made me a great omletre, thank you.

We were not impressed at all. The prime rib was cold. The spare ribs were dry. The desert plates were dirty underneath 2 plates were the white rice was dry & hard. It’s $ 16 per plate? The best part was the dessert

Nothing for vegetarians at all. Not even a veggie burger. :(

The NY Steak, Filet Mignon, and lobster was about average. The plating can use some improvements. The wine selection is mid range but well appointed. Otherwise a very budget friendly restaurant.

Since we were staying at the hotel, had both dinner and breakfast here. For dinner, I ordered off the menu and my husband has the buffet. I had the sirloin steak for $ 22.99. The steak was so so, the baked potato was stone cold and the veggies were rock hard. The buffet was less than stellar. Tiny plates so you don’t take too much without making multiple trips. The prime rib was cut so thin and way over done.
For breakfast, we did the buffet for $ 10 and it was a much better deal with better food.
I won’t be in a hurry to go back.

Food was good. Im not a seafood person but thats what the family wanted. They said it was good. Prime rib was ok to me. Im very picky about texture of my food and my piece was fatty. Mashed potatoes, crab dip and general tso chicken was good. Decent dessert selection. As it got busier it got louder. Im giving 3 stars because our waitress would walk by our table look at our glasses and walk off. But the table bus ladies did an awesome job of keeping everything neat.

Solid 3.5 stars; the .5 is for a quieter, less hectic time in the dining buffet area, and a decent selection.
the pros:
*phở, 1^st time ever!!! not even tulalip, skagit or silver reef offers this
*prime rib
*lobster mac n cheese
*chinese-​style deep fried prawns with mayo sauce and candied walnuts
the cons:
*crab legs aren’t meaty like Skagit’s
*no fruits
*dessert selection lacking
And for $ 22, it’s up there… lucky, 1^st time register, you get a $ 5 cash back.
Located left side.
Booth seating available.

Went on a Friday for their Prime Rib and Seafood Buffet and that was on point for the price that they charged. Oyster shooters, crab legs, succulent prime rib, shrimp scampi, shrimp pad thai, clams, and honey walnut prawns is what draws me here on Friday if I don’t feel like cooking. Do the damn thing :)

It used to be pretty good, but now they have altered their buffet and raised prices. For instance, they used to offer Dungeness crab every weekend with the seafood buffet, now it is only snow crab… you can get snow crab at any Chinese buffet, much cheaper! Now if I want a good seafood buffet, I go to Tulalip casino, a little more pricey but worth it.

The new weekend brunch buffet is awful, really… can’t believe they don’t know that we have a choice to go to the snoqualmie, all they have to do is go there sometime, I know I will!!! I still have heartburn 10 hours later, dried out hard French toast, greasy eggs Benedict, a knife won’t go thru, been sitting for hours, in a grease puddle, it’s about the same price as a premium buffet, but ¹⁄₁₀ the items also, 2 pancakes were offered, really, just think if you were wanting a stack, it’s not happening, nice help, good bacon, and crème brûlée, Katie’s kitchen is so good, what happened? I was looking forward to it, you should not!

Hubs and I went to the Watershed for New Year’s Day brunch. We sat in the lounge and had the buffet.
Our waitress was tired from working late the night before but she kept forgetting to bring us things (drinks that were ordered, menus, silverwear) and didn’t check in on us often.
The buffet itself? Meh. The quality seems to have declined in the past year. While they still have an abundance of seafood there’s really not much else. The salad bar is separate from the rest of the buffet and it’s really sparse. Pretty much some iceberg mix and a couple veggies. And, the worst part, they did not have my much beloved thousand island dressing!
My friends love to come to brunch here but I just can’t stand spending the money on barely average food and poor service.

I had the seafood buffet on Friday night and it was great. All I cared to eat Dungenous crab and a variety of delicious seafood dishes. The staff here is very friendly. Drink prices are very affordable for a good drink.

For $ 60 we ordered two steak dinners, a lobster tail, beer battered shrimp and two drinks. The prices are great and the staff is very friendly. I would suggest that you check out their dinner and drinks!

We have visited the restaurant and casino many times. Truth is, we live just around the corner, and we enjoy the opportunity to get inexpensive cocktails and decent food so close to home.
Take my advice and skip the buffet on the nights it’s offered. That is unless you really want to just eat your fill of Dungeness crab. They do the crab right with no additional seasoning. It is always fresh, tasty and plentiful. The remainder of the buffet can and should be, skipped.
Ordering off the menu is a different story. The kitchen does a fine job of preparing meat and fish entres to order and the sides are generally appropriate and fresh. The wine list is thin with a Northwest focus, but I understand they are working on expaning the selections.
I’d go 3.5 stars if the buffet didn’t suck.

Sunday Brunch buffet. Crab, salmon, eggs Benedict and many others including made to order omlets, all for $ 14.99 (10 – 2)

This review is based on a Saturday night visit for their buffet.
The service was friendly and good for a buffett environment. Our server was kind, had a good attitude and appeared happy to be at work. Drinks were refilled in a timely fashion and empty plates removed promptly. This was the saving grace.
The food is where this places takes a dive downhill. Compared to the buffet at Tualip, which is about the same price, this place is equal to Old Country Buffet. If the food was improved, this would have huge potential. All in all it is buffet food though and that is what can be expected.

We came on a Friday, with my husband, our 5 month old baby, my dad and his wife from out of town. My dad’s wife wanted crab on her visit up to the Pacific North West, so I thought this would be a good stop. They allow kids, unlike some of the other casino buffets, like the Skagit.
They had Prime rib and both snow and dungeness crab, hot and cold. The crab was supremely good, sweet and delicious and always plenty. The prime rib was juicy and hot, and sliced to order. The slicer guy is quite generous, nice fat slabs. They have horseradish not mixed with sour cream, which made me happy. They have peel and eat shrimp cooked in a bay seasoning mix. They had a variety of potato sides, including mashed, bakes and au gratin. The Au gratin looked super good and my husband raved about them. The rest of the buffet is kind of on the small side. Not an overwhelming amount of choices, but pretty good stuff. Though totally not worth the price if you aren’t getting the crab and the prime rib.
The desserts are disappointing. Bland brownie. Bland cheese cake. Only a few options, jello, cookies, soft serve, etc. Totally room for improvement here. Also they weren’t very good at stocking the desserts, there was a crusty empty pan that was supposed to have been break pudding.
The booths are stretching it for 4 people, they are really short. They would be great for 2, but 4 people and a baby it gets tight. They seemed to be under staffed tonight. Our waitress was nice but really slow with clearing plates, and bringing things like butter or crab bowls. She didn’t ask if we wanted drink refills, etc.
The restaurant doesn’t feel too casinoish. It’s not smokey like the rest of the place, there aren’t bright lights or casino noises. It’s tastefully done in a North West theme, with Native art. I was impressed. We came at 6:30 on a Friday and had to wait just long enough for us to get a drink in the lounge, about 10 minutes, they said it would be 20 minutes but it was faster.
All in all I would go back. It’s not the best place ever, but the crab is tasty and the prime rib is too and that’s what I am looking for.

The service was good but the food was just ok. We all felt like it was a 3 star experience over all — think a slightly better Denny’s. My Mom’s crabcakes were a bit fishy for her but still ok. I don’t recommend the veggie burger. The patty had a weird cardboard flavor. However, despite that it was still ok. The restaurant has nice décor and is a good place to take a break from the casino.

Went to Happy Hour tonight with my family at Watershed. Happy Hour basically means half price appetizers from 3 – 6. I would highly recommend the wings and the steak skewers. It’s hard to find good wings in Washington and I wasn’t thinking I would at a casino restaurant. The onion rings and quesadilla were better than average for bar food and the seafood chowder and nachos were pretty standard.
Overall I was pleased and very relieved to have an option other than Katie’s Kitchen if I’m forced to eat at the Angel.
