text: I was hungry to try a good new buffet for lunch on this Monday my experience has been that the ones at casinos are always excellent so I wheeled down to Harvest Buffet within Harrahs AkChin Casino to give it a try Upon arrival I joined the players club as you should always do At times this might get you the buffet for free but at this time it only saves you a dollar but puts you on the mailing list for discounts freebies later The casino is nice though I headed into the restaurant with lots of positive anticipationnnThe layout of the food tables reminded me of Eagles Buffet at Casino Arizona except that this one is lighted more brightly has a higher very artsy ceiling In fact the entire restaurant is built with a lot of Indian style and I found it to be a completely comfortable place to eatnnI started with a tasty seafood soup that I cannot remember the name of salad and then started trying the different hot choices The selection is large and today there was a Thai section a Mexican section an Italian section an American section There was also vegetarian fare seafood more everything I had room to try about half of the main items out was just great There were lots of beautiful desserts out too but I did not have room for them this timennIm a diner not a gambler but just fun on the way out I stuck my new Total Rewards card in a slot machine to show a little appreciation As UNexpected a few minutes later I cashed out with Needless to say I love this place plan to return next Monday for another terrific meal The hotel pool look inviting too so I might just make it an overnighternnLunch nnMonday Today it was back to Harvest Buffet my favorite of all buffet restaurants in the Valley Gadzooks it was good Even though I was returning on the same day of the week as last time the food was mostly not a repeat it was just terrific Yes it is a bit of a drive for many of us down to Maricopa but I think it is worth itnnPS This is a goodsized place but the secret is out about how good it is it pretty much fills up by about AM Be there at if you cannnThu Have been here several more times still totally Stars The Cream of Mushroom Soup today was soooo the best I have ever tasted That is how it goes with this place
