We used to dine at the restaurant at least once a week before it changed after renovation and from buffet to a la carte. I have been once since it changed and never again. The food was not cooked properly (microwaved potatoes and then browned)and unappetizing. I liked the buffet so when they change the chef and go back to buffet I will go back. Expensive too. I have heard many others say the same thing ie they do not like the food and will not go back until it changes back to the original buffet.

Dined last night at the Grand Cafe and must say I was very impressed. The refurbishment is amazing, place looks really cool.Great to see they have gone a la carte, great selection of options, my salmon was perfect.

Very friendly service from our waitress and great recommendation on the wine matching.

We’ll be back for sure.

I dined at the Grand cafe and the refurbishment looks fantastic, and the new menu is delicious. We were so impressed with the service and the ambiance. We dined in the lounge area, which had a lovely intimate feel. The team at the casino has obviously put a lot of thought and effort into this total turnaround of a restaurant.

We had dinner at Grand Cafe in the casino and the place looks awesome but then the rest is crap like the service and food.I would never ever suggest this restau to any of my family & friends.It is very disappointing.Waitress does’nt have any idea about the whole part of the menu and she was very unsure of what she’s talking about.I mean as a waitress u should know whats on the menu, the entire part of the menu as every other restaurant i have been to.Giving a wrong info about the menu nothing is precise at all and serving a very cold bread and it is crap.Even the bread that u can buy in pakNsave is even better then that bread and then asked the waitress to heat it up a little bit and she answered back if we want it in the microwave?how is that?then she took the bread and toasted it like your eating a cracker.The Mains is no good!Pork well done!!glasses does’nt looks clean full of white spots..Lastly the payment mode!If you cant accept credit card on that day becoz your having troubles about it or what so ever dont you think you are supposed to advice the customer about it.I think every customer should know what mode of payment you can only accept in that circumstances!!!!AND i think as a front desk person you should be more polite and accept that you were at fault in that matter!!!Oh well its a learning experience.

I know the “Grand Cafe Restaurant” at the Casino since winter last year and i enjoy it every time.
But i know that the Restaurant is under a new manager since that time. The breakfast buffet is always great, well presented and tasteful – as the dinner buffet is as well. The service staff is friendly and offer service to high standard. I am sure the previous reviews are correct but the restaurant has improved a lot. As I have heard there will be a refurbishment of the whole restaurant this year.

Dined here on a Friday night. For $38.00 per head I expected more. Choices very average; speed of replacing empty dishes poor; cleanliness of servery area’s poor; waiting staff good. Nice decor, but overall disappointed. Breakfast is much better option in my opinion.
