"Touted as the place to overeat, Fresh Harvest Buffet is the property’s buffet option." - Rachel Vigoda

I was really looking forward to Fresh Harvest Buffet after hearing about the wide variety of food options. Unfortunately, as someone who primarily eats meat, I was very disappointed. The brisket had a strange, almost fishy taste, and both the prime rib and turkey legs were extremely dry. The meat section felt like a major letdown. On the bright side, the desserts and sides looked fantastic (even though I didn’t try them), and the service and atmosphere were top-notch — easily 5/5 in those areas. Sadly, the food itself was a big miss for me, and I left pretty disappointed overall.

This buffet is located inside the Hard Rock Casino, and our family stopped in for lunch during our visit. The atmosphere was clean and relaxed, and we were seated quickly. The lunch selection leaned more toward lighter Asian-inspired dishes — think simple stir-fried veggies, rice, and noodle options. While everything was fresh, it did feel a little underwhelming in terms of variety and flavor. They also had pizza and pasta, which the kids enjoyed, but nothing particularly stood out. The dessert section offered several options, including soft serve ice cream. I tried the coconut flavor, but it wasn’t really for me — the texture and taste felt a bit off. Overall, the ice cream was just okay, definitely not the highlight of the meal. What did stand out, though, was the service. Our waitress was very attentive and kind. She checked on us often and made sure our drinks were always filled and that we had everything we needed. We were curious about how the dinner menu might compare, hoping it would have more variety or heartier options, but we didn’t get a chance to try it. If we return, I’d be willing to give the dinner buffet a shot and see if it offers a stronger experience.

My husband and I went to lunch here both days that we stayed. It was delicious and the employees are on the ball. Our server,Milton was kind,caring and professional!

DO NOT COME!! Food left out all day, temperatures inconsistent. And we were lucky enough to have a little friend in our food. Manager told us “well our food is fresh so I don’t know what to tell you” as if we had placed the bug in our food. Proceeded to hand us a free buffet when we come back!! (Never) For $42 a person you could at least warm up the food a little bit more! You could definitely afford a bug trap or two as well! Only benefit to going was that our server was incredibly apologetic and kind.

One a recent trip to Atlantic City, we decided to research buffets in AC, and found the Fresh Harvest Buffet at the Hard Rock Casino to be the highest rated. So, we decided to visit on a Sunday, and got there at opening, and we're seated in about 10 minutes. We paid $42.99 per person for the buffet. Our server, Andrea, was amazing and took care of us while we were there. She did a top notch job and deserves a raise! The buffet had a large range a cuisine, from prime rib and beef brisket, Italian, Chinese, a salad bar, and a raw bar. The prime rib and brisket were great and cooked perfectly. The raw bar was also amazing, with oysters and clams, and cooked shrimp...as much as you can eat! The Italian was great! Pasta, Eggplant Rollatini, pizza, and a few other dishes. The desert bar...phenomenal! The drawback to the food was the Chinese. The typical fare: General Tsos, Crab Rangoon, etc. It was low quality. But, I didn't come to this buffet for Chinese, so it didn't detract from the experience. Overall, we highly recommend this buffet. And, afterwards, enjoy the ambiance of the Hard Rock and take in the man artifacts they have to offer.

I had a great experience overall. The line was super long, which should tell you something about how popular this place is! The cost is $59.99 per person—I personally think $40 would have been more reasonable, but it was still a good experience. The food was well-kept, and I appreciated how quickly spills and messes were cleaned up. I ate until I was full, so no complaints there!

The food was good and fresh. The server was attentive, friendly and efficient. The price is $40 pp. I think it is a bit expensive. But, it is worth the try. I really enjoyed the ice cream and fresh crepes. All drinks are included, so that is nice! I also enjoyed the variety. It's not a super size buffet, but it is a good They offer beer and wine ($8) and cocktails ($13).

Decided on this for dinner at the last minute. $42.99 for a buffet dinner that included soft drinks was reasonable. We arrived at 5pm, were seated without a wait, and our server was prompt to provide service and bring our drinks. She was also quick to clear the table and keep our glasses full. There was plenty to choose from, but the standout was the brisket. It was tasty and melted in your mouth. There were plenty of tasty desserts, including sugar-free options. Our menu did not include seafood, but there were prawns and oysters. Would definitely go back

Decided to go back here for seafood night with my comp rewards. From my understanding they have extended seafood night into Thursday and Friday now. That being said they really need to do something about the customer service and the cashiers that check you in. There's one Latina young lady with blonde hair who has a consistently poor demeanor. She was there both times I've visited and both times her demeanor is just not costumer service friendly. Also the cashier she had working with her (AA woman with black and reddish tipped braids) was unnecessarily loud and obnoxious. She was loudly rambling on about how there should be a time limit for "these people" to sit here and all this other nonsense. There was also a woman there complaining about her special needs child not being accommodated for whatever reason. This same cashier was rambling on saying "ion know what she want or what she spect me da do" and again more unnecessary comments that have nothing to do with her job at hand which is to simply ring people up and point them to the host who will point you to the server that seats you. It's literally just that simple! What she's not noting as she's delivering her unwarranted opinion is the average couples with out comps are paying almost $150 dollars just to get into this place for the seafood buffet and whole families with children are paying more! So the fact that she's sitting there collecting their money sounding illiterate and complaining about how these same PAYING PEOPLE need to be put on a time limit when they are waiting about 10-15 mins just to be given their drinks when asked as well as standing 10-15 mins in long lines waiting to make their plates is wild work. This is why management needs to step in and tell her she should concentrate on figuring out how to be great at performing the job she's been tasked to do. If she was being paid to run the establishment it definitely would be shut down by now and nobody there would have jobs at all. That said the customer service here isn't good at all and the wait staff is also hit or miss. You see some that are very nice, some that are meh and some that are just flat out rude and obviously don't want to be there. In closing, now having the seafood buffet experience I still would not go here unless I have comps or an offer. It's still just meh to me. The salmon is still over cooked. The seafood options are just ok. The crab legs are the only thing that brings value to the seafood buffet and even those are extremely salty. Some of the other options like the fried and tempura shrimp are overly bready as is the fried cod. The fried bay scallops were ok. Honestly there's just a bunch of mediocre options. It's definitely quantity over quality. I can say at least the vegetables have been consistently well cooked and tasty from my experience. The ice cream is also the star and highlight of the dessert bar and everything else is like mediocre back up dancers for it. Based of my experiences I can't say I recommend this place. Before you spend your money paying full price here go sit down and dine at a nice local restaurant that shows you they appreciate your business by greeting you with good customer service and serving you great food.

Tried their seafood buffet night for Thanksgiving at Hard Rock Casino with comps. Otherwise it's $59.99pp, half price for kids, and free for toddlers (kid prices aren't posted). They have a decent selection, but nothing like a Vegas buffet - they didn't have any sushi! We sat by the back next to the server station so our waiter was quick in picking up dirty plates and checking in on us. They had different areas and selections so not everyone was crowded in one line and people moved quickly with little wait to get food even when the place was packed and a huge line outside. I love seafood so I got a plate of crab legs, raw oysters, and raw clams (never had these raw before and they were a bit too much seafoody to me), but otherwise they tasted pretty fresh. The prime rib area has a sauce station at the end with the aus jus I missed initially. I'd give the food a 3/5 for a buffet at a touristy area. But Hard Rock Casino is striking out with their staff being rude in front of kids again for me. One of my nephews apparently spilled some Mac & Cheese on the side on the buffet pan and when my younger nephew came to get some, I was passing by and asked if he needed help. The staff behind that had just wiped clean the mess rudely interrupted and said "yes he needs help!" Excuse me? So why didn't she offer the help then when he was standing there before I passed by? Meanwhile they had a server at the crab legs and I stood there for a bit as 2 staff were chatting in Spanish, so I went to grab the tongs that were facing them. Then she rudely grabbed it from me and proceeded to plop one on my plate that spilled my butter so I made a grunt cause this means I'm about to get my hands all buttery when cracking them later. She had a sarcastic tone and said "sorry" and after my grunt, she started chatting again with the other staff in Spanish - likely about me. And she started picking the smaller crab legs for me. I don't know what it is, but Hard Rock Casino must be overworking their employees and everyone seems disgruntled at the food spots and acting like we're in a food kitchen begging for food and at their mercy. We leave good tips and even with using comps, we earned that comp money. A casino should be treating those using comps as VIPs as that's their core business clients!

It is two parts the front staff friendly even though I didn't like hearing that you can come back into the exit when you can't and I overreacting. The hostess were like a well oiled machine same with the cashier. The ambulance is fancier and spacious with pretty chandeliers like my one pitcher. Now the food at first when I tried the pell and eat shrimp by the way shrimp heaven but 3 out of 5 of the different types shrimp I had were good. The Mac and cheeses (there was a seafood one too. Pizza would try if fresh it was good. Crab legs over done. Ice cream good I had a chocolate and cotton candy. Maroon with a pineapple upside down twist I love. Rich didn't like it . The stuff crab yummy but it was in a shell that is fragile and shells be careful what you do. So if they can clean better with the seafood and inedible this is easily 5 stars.

The Hard Rock resort and casino is home to many restaurants. One such restaurant, Fresh Harvest buffet serves up an eclectic AYCE seafood smorgasbord extravaganza. NOTE: Seafood buffet served only from Thursday to Saturday. For starters the seating was spacious, and there was a comfortable flow between the buffet stations, making it easy to survey the food islands so to speak without feeling cramped. The variety of seafood was impressive. They offered a little bit of everything. They had carving stations offering prime rib and other meats. Plenty of seafood and non seafood items, from fried to baked and boiled. The superstar of the buffet was the endless amount of snow crab legs that were steamed to perfection, which made extracting the crab meat easy. The raw bar offered chilled shucked oysters and clams with a variety of cocktail sauces. They had a variety of cooked shrimp prepared in different ways. The selection of fish was impressive as I had monk, cod, flounder and salmon. There is also an Asian section serving up classic stir fry noodles, fried rice, general tso chicken and chicken and broccoli. The staff was attentive, quickly clearing our dirty plates and refilling drinks without being intrusive. The buffet stations were well-maintained, and everything was replenished promptly. I also appreciated that the utensils and surfaces were kept clean as the staff was on top of their game. The dessert bar was a pleasant surprise, offering soft serve ice cream, cakes, cookies and freshly made crepes. While the buffet wasn't cheap, the quality and variety made it feel like a fair deal, especially for seafood lovers. Now not everything was a homerun, but If you're someone who enjoys raw oysters, clams and endless crab legs, you'll definitely get your money's worth and then some. The all-you-can-eat buffet is an experience worth savoring for special occasions as eating this cuisine too often will drive up your cholesterol levels, but if you must indulge yourself frequently, I guess there's always better living through chemistry with lipitor. Cheers! :)

Well I haven't visited AC in maybe a decade and when we came to town really had a desire for a good buffet and if we could find a seafood buffet even better. Well I guess buffet are a dying thing here in AC. But after a lot of looking we found Fresh Harvest in the Hard Rock. We went on a Thursday and found that this was seafood night. Let get down to my opinion. The food was very good. I don't think I sampled anything that I didn't like and didn't have a decent flavor. With several variety of shrimp all tasting good. I really liked the pepper shrimp the best. They did have crab legs and out of everything wasn't my favorite. They were a bit soft and hard to break open. But everything else was really good. As for service: was bad but was perfect. My fella was pretty busy, so we really didn't get our drinks refilled as often as we would have liked/needed. Now let's talk cost: Holy mud - $127.93 for two people. Quite frankly way too much. I also found out "after the visit" that there might have been discounts that the wifey and I could have gotten. But I'm not sure. I later heard they offer a military discount and maybe a senior discount, again I'm not sure if they do or not, but the front cashier absolutely didn't offer or suggest one. So again the food was decent but I wouldn't visit again with such a high cost.

I would never recommend this way. Have to get an E. coli went up in the hospital half dead 18 days in the hospital. Then I had a problem with a staff member being racist and then I got him fired. Then he calls me on the phone a few weeks later, crying that he wants to know if I can get his job back on at that point I'm saying how the heck did he get my phone number The union rep gave him my phone number in my personal information I settled everything. I told them to give him back his job and for him not to call me or the next time I'll be filing a lawsuit against them never got comped never turned around and got anything for all my troubles in the disrespect. I think the casino and The whole place is a joke. I should've sued them when I had a chance. The reason why I know it was a union rep because the union called me along with one of the human resources and explained everything to me and apologized and you know it was a mistake and thank God that the guy you know wasn't stupid to try to do something with the information he found out on me. He's very lucky. It would've been very bad for him not me But the whole deal. And they should've gave me something Between the E. coli and getting sick almost winning up half dead in the hospital and dealing with the jerk off employee and the union that screwed up giving him my information Hard Rock Cafe. They can go to hell I hope they don't deny it because I have emailed back-and-forth and I have a whole bunch of record showing what happened and I have plenty of proof that they can never shovel underneath the rug Personally, I should've gotten comped. I should've gotten something that's the way I feel .

Favorite buffet in Atlantic City. Excellent selection for the price. Usually the vegetarian food is extremely lacking at a buffet. This one has a solid salad bar, taco bar, pasta section, etc. And of course my favorite, the desserts. So good. Wasn't too busy even on a holiday weekend. Server was friendly and checked back often. Casual vibes, some folks dress up if they're heading out to a show.

For the cash tou better like crab legs. I paid $70 and had a plate and left. Took forever to get a drink being only server's can get you a soda. No fountains. Ask for 2 sodas off the rip or you'll be halfway through a plate and go dry. Its a stampede of people that act like the buffet will disappear at a moments notice. For the cash, go to a sit down restaurant.

Fresh Harvest Buffet offers ample seating for families and couples alike, with plenty of cuisine varieties to fill your plates and indulge. Be prepared for potentially long lines at the hostess stand if you don't have a higher-level card. Since there's more seating it can be crowded and/or loud. All the food options were hot and well-prepared. We enjoyed sampling a little of everything with a few plates. On Tuesdays, you can take advantage of a buy-one-get-one-free deal from the rewards kiosk. The lunch/dinner price for one person is $45, so be sure to get your money's worth. The selection of high-end options helps justify the cost.

We visited here for dinner and man the options the seafood options were plentiful and fresh. Enjoyed the different shrimp options, crab legs, and the Asian dishes; General Tso and fried rice were delish and piping hot! The dessert bar was good too. I got an oatmeal cookie, tiramisu bite cake, and ice cream topped off the dinner. The table host was very friendly and attentive to our drinks.

Not Family Friendly - A Disappointing and Painful Experience (See attached photo of locked restrooms near The Harvest Buffet.) I visited The Harvest Buffet at Hard Rock Atlantic City with my two toddlers and had a truly upsetting experience. Despite Hard Rock promoting itself as a family-friendly hotel--with cribs, pools, and more for kids--there were no baby changing tables in the accessible restrooms near the buffet. The only bathroom that might have had one was locked, and even after I asked multiple staff members, I was denied access. No help. No compassion. My baby had diarrhea and I was forced to change her on a bathroom floor or go all the way down to the casino level. I'm recovering from postpartum pain, dealing with arthritis and a painful cyst. Walking that far was excruciating. My baby was crying, I was crying--and not one staff member showed concern. Hard Rock advertises as family-friendly, but this experience says otherwise. Basic accommodations like accessible changing tables should be a priority. I hope this review leads to change. No mother should ever be left to suffer like this.

Food had gone down and prices have gone up. They have cut back on different stations of food. Craving station had only Turkey and ham. No carved beef. Did not serve some of the items that were on their menu. Shrimp small not worth your time picking at them. Some food looked like leftovers from the day before. Deserts were very good. Very disappointing for what we paid - $45 per person. Use to like going there but after this time I don't want to go back.

Roomy buffet option with carving stations, seafood options, brick oven pizzas, desserts & more. Staff are very attentive, willing to go out of there way to help you, which makes you feel comfortable in a buffet style sitting. With the best thing at the end, there price. My husband I tried them for the first time, on Thanksgiving this year, they had a delicious, juicy Turkey carving station, prime rib and ham carving stations, and side dishes galore. And can't forget desserts, and more desserts.

was really looking forward to trying Fresh Harvest Buffet at the Hard Rock, but unfortunately it was a letdown. The food overall wasn't very flavorful, and for a buffet, I expected a much better variety--especially with seafood. The selection felt limited, and nothing really stood out. Service was also on the slower side, which made the experience less enjoyable. Between the lack of variety, bland taste, and the price point, I honestly don't think it was worth it. With all the dining options in Atlantic City, I'd probably try something else next time.

I know how to pick food, usually by just looking. Here is case in point! See my pictures - everything I chose was very good except the chicken breast. A bit dry (not horribly). They have a nice selection of varied foods. The man wasn't happy with most of his choices, sadly. I felt badly. (Dry General Tso's, doesn't like pumpkin, nor sweet potato) Back to Borgata's buffet next time!

We decided to try out this buffet. There wasn't no line to go in. So we had a table right away. The staff was very friendly. There were different varieties of foods. Crabs and raw oysters and clams and there other. The place was pretty big so can fit amount of people. For the foods it was ok. Wish they had other varieties of foods.

Stayed at the Hard Rock so many times and never knew this place was here. Came here for lunch on Saturday. No line we walked right in. The waitress was a little much...kinda all over the place. Food options were ok. Major con was the temperature or some options like the salmon was overcooked. 1st batch of steamed crabs legs were overcooked as well. The crab meat was hard. The next batch had was better but the temperature was lukewarm. Price was $60 per person. Just based on the crab legs you can it, the price pays for itself. Definitely would come back to try again.

Visited the Seafood Buffet on Sat 10/12....Beautiful roomy restaurant with a nice size buffet; however, it was VERY basic and hardly enough seafood options to be considered a seafood buffet! What my mom and I tried we felt lacked flavor! This was not worth $60 pp to us. The service was just ok as our waiter was swamped so he wasn't as attentive as I'd like. Will not go again.

My husband and I ate at Fresh Harvest Buffet on August 14, 2025 Thursday. Food was great. But the service we received was none. We had this server name was (not sure of his name). He served us one time and he never came back and checked on us. He never offered us another unsweetened tea. He waited on everyone else accept for us. His service was horrible. I really was disappointed and disgusted. I told my husband that he was not going to get tip. And I meant it. I never went to a restaurant and never received service. I don't think we would go back again. We spent money for the buffet and received horrible service. I was going to speak to a manager but we were so mad we decided to leave. Server need to be trained and treated their Mad as ----customers with excellent service.

Food was great. Our server kept the sodies coming. Crowded but didn't feel like I couldn't get what I wanted. Awesome selection. However, nothing is labeled which is a grave concern for allergies. Thankfully, I'm not allergic to anything, but I did accidentally eat clam chowder instead of baked potato soup (and I enjoyed it, but that's besides the point).

This is definitely one of the best buffets in Atlantic City. The overall quality really puts The Borgata buffet to shame. The selection here is excellent and the food simply tastes good, plain and simple. For the price ($29.99) you're getting pretty good value considering the vastly inferior Borgata buffet charges way more for dinner and has far less variety and is simply not as good. The real standout here for me was the prime rib, which was tender and well cooked. The au jus was excellent as well. The salad section was also nice and the dessert selection is excellent. There really isn't much in the way of anything negative to add as the entire place was clean and also the service was super attentive. I guess the real drag was how long the lines were especially during the weekends and even during off hours. However, beyond that you can't go wrong eating here if you're seeking some Vegas quality buffet items in AC (minus the crab legs).

This place SUCKS. Don't waste your money. The food looked old. We really didn't eat much. Food didn't look appetizing at all. What we got tasted nasty. Not worth 30 a person maybe 10 bucks at most.

I heard Hard Rock had a great buffet! They even have a sign out front that claims they have the best buffet on the boardwalk!! It should read the ONLY buffet on the board walk. I was all juiced up for their fabulous sea food buffet! The only good things were the crab legs, which people would pile up on their plates over and over, and the prime rib. Every thing else was tasteless and not even hot. Being a glutton for punishment, I knew they had a non seafood buffet which looked pretty good. They did have some great stuff BUT, again, all cold and tasteless! The prime rib was the high spot. The brisket looked like an old tree root when it was being cut. So I mentioned it to the manager and he said nobody had ever complained about the buffet! I told him I couldn't account for anyone's taste or lack of it, but it was one of the worst buffets I ever had. I told him UMI had a better one for half the price. He was a nice guy so refunded my money so it only cost the tip. Too bad since both of those buffets could have been really good if they were at least hot. So I guess I can add AC to my not go to list!! Too bad!!!

Among the best buffets in AC. Good service and good quality. I like to walk from my hotel to this buffet and back. Next time i'll get a bloody mary.

I have been to this buffet countless times for the crab legs and 9 times out of 10 they are awesome. The last 3 times we went the crab legs were so overcooked you could not even crack them they were so soggy. Since I doubt the chefs suddenly forgot how to boil crab legs I can only believe they are doing this on purpose to save money. After a few plates I got discouraged and left hungry. Unlike most people I am there for the crab legs only, I can get the other food items anywhere. I am going to give the buffet one last try next weekend.

Kids under 4 free Not the worst buffet I've ever been to and one of the better ones in AC. The Chinese food was delicious. The salad bar part was good. They had an Italian section including raviolis and pizza that people really loved. The carving section had prime rib or some kind of beef. Service was great, they were quick to clear the dirty plates of our group. ***pls remember to tip buffet waiters. This is too often overlooked***

A very decent buffet with the usual huge selection of options, from Italian to Asian and everything in-between. Plus desserts. The ice cream was the single best thing I ate. Everything else was good....but forgettable. If you like quantity, I recommend highly. But if you don't want to make a pig of yourself and would rather be served one great entree and go to sleep without heartburn, I would suggest you go elsewhere. Plus the atmosphere is like a cafeteria.

I would absolutely recommend this place. It's got a lot of variety and a great price for your buck. I feel like there's so many shrimp possibilities in here. A lot of the dishes I walked by had added shrimp to it. I did one big plate for my first time there and couldn't even do a full second plate because I was stuffed. I was shockingly surprised how well everything taste. I wasn't a huge fan of the dessert section but they did have a lot of things to choose from. The macaroni and cheese was my favorite, along side their ribs and pulled pork. Mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables, vegetable lo mein. We all loved the General Tso chicken too and vegetable fried rice. I mean for $29.99 plus tax per person, it's very well worth it. We happened to eat free because we had $60 dining voucher so be sure to check your promotions on your Hard Rock card before going inside. Service was great, checking in to be seated went really quickly even though the lines seemed long. I almost can't wait to return on Sunday. Come with an empty stomach, the possibilities are endless in my opinion.

Came here on a Saturday night around 7:30pm... it was PACKED but we were able to be seated right away. It was about $85 total to get in for 2 people. The food was typical: pasta, pizza, meat, etc. The salad section was beyond small, and the dessert section had no labels with the exception of 3 items. I hate buffets with no labels. The mashed potatoes were delicious, and the pizza was better than any buffet pizza I've ever had. The service was okay. The people at the front who took the money weren't very friendly, the server who got us our drinks was nice but that's about it. It was a fairly large buffet and definitely nice to try. It was clean and everything I had seemed fresh. If I was in the area, I would probably go back but I prefer Borgota overall.

Do not go here. Hands down the worst buffet my partner and I have ever had in our lives. The food tasted like it was made from frozen, it was tasteless, dry and mushy. The prime rib was way over done and the brisket is so dry it can probably break a window; and they force the shitty pieces on you. The ravioli was so mushy I washed it down with lemonade because I didn't want to spit it out. The dessert looked great, tastes shit; the tiramisu has been left out for so long, the cream stiffened and went dark. The lemon bar had no lemon taste, the eclair was stale and had condensation; and I've never seen a more unripe watermelon being served. Why serve this at all?? JC, this place was awful; do better. The only redeeming part of this experience was service and the soft serve - so a star for that. But also only because I have to at least provide one star.

Wonderful selection of foods, and the staff are friendly and make sure you have a fresh drink and clear away your plates. The restaurant is clean and welcoming, dinner rubs about $40 a person, and I feel it was worth it!

The seafood buffet was not worth the price of $60 per person plus $30 for lobster. The restaurant did not have all items listed in the menu such as the spare ribs. The calamari were tiny pieces and tough as shoe leather. The regular buffet is much better.

The food was amazing. They had so much to choose from but I have a finicky pallet and some food restriction's. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. When I asked where watermelon was located in the buffet he told me where it was. To my surprise, while I was eating he came back with a good size bowl of fresh watermelon. The desserts all looked amazing. All the special cuts of meat and seafood looked good as well. They also had a pasta area as well as oriental food. I just happened to be the right place at the right time, as I had a coupon for 1/2 off the buffet for this day. So $19.99 plus tax was a winner. It would have cost at least that in any of the restaurants and not been able to have such an amazing spread of food. Great Job

Fresh Harvest Buffet is located inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. The buffet specializes in carving stations, brick oven pizzas, and dim sum. You can also find speciality salads and soups, comfort food, Italian dishes, and plenty of desserts like cheesecake and tiramisu. The biggest problem I have with this buffet is the limited seafood selection. The only choices you have are u peel shrimp and clams/oysters on the half shell. With that being said, all the food was pretty good. Hands down, the best item on the menu is the prime rib. It was cooked perfectly and just about melted in your mouth. My other suggestions would be the u peel shrimp and roasted chicken. The buffet costs $29.99 and they are open Sun - Thu 12 -9 and Fri & Sat 12 - 10. Food - 7.5 Service - 7.5 Value 7.7 Restaurant score - 76

It's ok, but wouldn't pay $40-50 pp to go. Got free voucher for myself & boyfriend. Enjoyed the brisket, mashed potatoes, Mac n cheese, asparagus, and brussels sprouts the best. No salmon when we arrived around 745pm. Dessert was bread pudding & apple crumble. Had with ice cream, ice cream tasted artificial. Server were great, very attentive! Lemonade was watered down. Was an ok meal. Boyfriend went back for 3 plates so he was satisfied

On Thursdays, Fresh Harvest Buffet does a seafood buffer for $60 per person. People were waiting in line before they opened at 12 p.m., and the buffet goes until 9 p.m. The buffet is clean and modern, and there is a nice selection of items from seafood items, to traditional buffet fare and a dessert station. I saw everyone eating the snow crab legs which was the main highlight of the buffet for the day. We got the snow crab legs and they were good. They had raw clams, oysters, cooked shrimp, shrimp tacos, and fish. There was prime rib, ham, pizza, vegetables, and soups too. I liked that they had a crepe station as well as a variety of desserts like cakes, puddings to ice cream. My favorite was definitely the raw oysters, snow crab legs and the prime rib. The snow crab legs were really yummy and the server there would give 3-4 bunches of crab legs if you wanted it. The prime rib was good only if it was medium rare and not well done. The middle parts were fine but if you got a cut at the beginning the prime rib was very chewy. Overall, $60 is a bit expensive but if you eat enough seafood (mainly snow crab in my case) definitely worth it.

Every time I stay at the Hard Rock, I always visit the buffet at least once. The variety of delicious foods and selections is amazing. From the Raw bar to the Prime Rib carving station and several selections in between including great pizza and Chinese food station. Not to mention the extensive dessert selections including freshly made crepes and ice cream. It is a bargain for the price! The service is excellent. The servers keep the table clean and serve the included beverages immediately. The ambiance is pretty and the energy is wonderful. You can even leave with a beverage, including coffee. It's like a food orgy

Absolutely terrible. Cost was $59.99. Food was terrible. Seafood was not worth the price. Don't understand why so many people were there unless they were comped. Don't go.. A burger and fries would be considered gourmet compared to this food selection.

They had a lot to choose from but omg a lot. The people that worked there were very good too. I would recommend this place to everyone to try.
