At a buffet, food is supposed to be easy to take down. It looked like a lot of fight for a little bit of meat. I didn’t try the king crab legs after watching my mom arm wrestle one. I’d love to see a buffet have a station where they fry on order and give up on the massed trays of fried food. The popcorn shrimp was rubbery and gritty and most of the other fried stuff was either suffering from being overdone or being done way to early. The Swedish meatballs were a very Presto Pasta, but their beef gravy made up for that. They have fantastic mashed taters, and their yam mash is fabulistic. The prime rib was a bit on the fatty side and the lamb was a kinda dry, but for the most part it was all pretty good. That’s easily solved, of course, by going to different sections and getting a little prime rib, ham, turkey, or lamb. My only gripe is that at certain periods, the steaks sit out a bit too long and medium rare becomes medium and medium becomes medium well, etc., etc. Let’s just go ahead and say “Yeah, Mike had him a few steaks.” After the third one, my heart kinda started to slow down a bit, but I hurried and got a taco with hot sauce to get it up to speed again. All I need now is Megan Fox asking me if I want mine medium rare. A place where steak exists in different forms and cuts. It’s definitely had a very modern facelift and resembles more of a high end Vegas buffet rather then the Laughlin spaghetti oh’s and mashed tater buffets.Ĭhoices has one of the coolest features in a restaurant that I’ve ever seen: a steak bar. The food is spaced out, giving you lots of elbow room, and the food is categorized pretty well. It’s actually a really well lit and beautiful dining area. How can a fat guy pass up on all you can eat? Choices Buffet – Pala Casino near TemeculaĬhoices is to the right of the main entrance to the Casino.

On a trip to Huntington Beach, my Uncle took us out through Temecula to the Pala Indian Casino to try out the newly remodeled Choices. I thought that it would be a good time to add buffets to the wide array of food on EMC.
