Thunder Falls Buffet- Senca Niagara Casino and Hotel

Got kicked out of the casino because I was talking politics. Beware. Jerks everywhere.

Standard buffet. Nothing really special. Beer and wine not included, but available. I had ribs, mac and cheese, and cornbread (good!) for my entrée and found it to be pretty decent. Has a retro feel for the décor. I LOVED the carmal tart for dessert, it was sweet and savory.

So my friends and I spent time in the this casino and we tried our luck in the machines and the roulette… finely we won some :) anyway that a nice place to hangout with some friend celebrate birthdays cause you have the band show. And you can drink and smoke.

Decided to try this place out Friday night after hearing about the amazing casino and free drinks as you gamble. The casino is lovely and the venue us exquisite but the buffet was not what I expected. Granted it was a Friday night and it was relatively busy but once a dish emptied, it seems like it took them 20 minutes to refill. Not to picky because I’m not a picky person, but being from out of town, I try to have the best experience I can. Most of the food was good. But the Chinese part of the buffet was not impressive and their salad bar (yes salad bar) was a mess and did not look appetizing. Anyway I made the best of it, had my drinks, ate my $ 25 worth of food and me and my husband proceeded into the casino and had a good night. Maybe next time it’ll taste a little more WOW!

We spent the weekend in Niagara and had the buffet for supper on Saturday night as well as on Sunday morning. Last time for sure. The food was very ordinary, some things overcooked like totally dead scrambled eggs, hard tack bacon, tasteless home fries… The beef roast was nicely cooked but lacked any flavour, the chicken was dry and overcooked. The desserts? Skip them — just not worth the calories. I looked forward to a decent selection of fruit on the salad bar (which was more than ordinary — boring is more like it) and all there was was unripe honeydew and even less ripe canteloupe. To be honest, I was hard pressed to find items I actually wanted to eat! $ 24. per person on Sat night and so not worth it! Worst o all, I had casino comps for $ 40.00 and instead of using them the cashier charged the full amount to my credit card. This I did not realize until the following day which explains why we even went back for breakfast. The only item on the breakfast /​brunch buffet that was decent was the made to order omelets and the items to add were very limited. We definitely will NOT be eating here again.

I liked the old format of this place better. Not a lot of options. The Asian section really was lacking. The salad bar had hardly any options. I wouldn’t go back again. The desert section was good. But that isn’t difficult to mess up. The pizza was also good. Not what it used to be.

After visiting Niagra Falls, my tour group went to this place for a dinner buffet. I’m not a fan of buffets overall, as the quality is usually poor, but WOW! Everything was very tasty and clean. The food was not drenched in grease and there was a greater selection than most other buffets. I was able to have good ol’ homestyle american food, greek food, asian food, italian food, and of course, wonderful, mouth watering dessert.
I would say that the ‘worst’ thing about the place was trying not to eat everything. I found no faults, and if I ever visit Niagara Falls again, I am 100% coming back here!

Valentine’s Day was my first time here since they redid the whole place. The wait was very minor as I would expect at a buffet, especially for Valentine’s Day. We went around 630 and waited maybe 10 minutes tops. The tables were modern and not to close together like they were in the past.
Our waitress came in a timely fashion as we were taking our coats off and got our drink orders. She offered their complimentary beer of the night which my boyfriend went with while I stuck to pop. For starters, everything was clean and well kept. None of the food was mixed in with other food as you normally see at buffets. Some plates were cleaner than others in the stack.
The first place we stopped at was «The Grill» typical American food with the chicken fingers, mac n cheese, etc. All food was delicious! When we got back to eat our first round, my drink was there but not the beer. It took about another 10 minutes for my boyfriend to get his beer, more than halfway through his first plate.
From there on, everything was very tasty but Asian Cuisine was by far the best. My only complaint there would be customers picking through certain things and getting the meat and not the veggies. That is the fault of the customers though, not the cooks.
All in all, it was a good night. I would have liked to see a bigger variety of desserts though, not just the typical cake and soft serve ice cream.

Some of the best buffet food you can eat. Best pasta I have ever eaten at there create your own pasta station (only when you get chef Paul)!
