| - We were in the Phoenix area over the holiday weekend and wanted some Chinese food. We did a search on Yelp for Chinese Buffets and the Eagles Buffet came up. The reviews were really good so we thought we would give it a try. It was a little difficult to find because I followed the Yelp directions which took us a couple of miles out into the middle of nowhere. So I had to enter the street address into Google Maps to find it. Once we realized it was inside a casino, we didn't have any problems.
After we arrived and were seated, we discovered that this was not a Chinese buffet but a Sunday brunch buffet. While my wife was initially disappointed not to get her Chinese fix, she wasn't disappointed for long. They had anything and everything you would want on the buffet. Breakfast offerings included eggs benedict, bacon, link sausage, hash browns, scrambled eggs, french toast, bananas foster, pancakes or omelets made to order. There was grilled ham with pineapple, roast beef, green beans, potato wedges, baked halibut, steamed salmon, for those who preferred lunch. Multiple salad options, cole slaw, fruit, caesar salads to spinach salad. All kinds of bread, savory and sweet. My favorite was the boiled shrimp and the fried shrimp. The fried shrimp was excellent, light and crispy. The boiled shrimp was a perfect match with the slightly spicy cocktail sauce. The shrimp alone was enough to keep my wife and I satisfied, I filled up a half plate three times. The grandkids found plenty of choices to choose from as well. The granddaughter focused on breakfast, eating multiple links of sausage and pancakes. Our grandson focused on lunch, with the grilled ham, assorted cheese cubes, spinach salad, and various breads. While eating their meals, they were already talking about the desserts and what they wanted to try. There was enough dessert options to please anyone, included sugar free selections. I had two pieces of pie; the grandson had three dessert shooters and a chocolate ice cream cone.
I am not usually a fan of buffets because I often find the food unseasoned and bland, this was not the case at Eagles. Everything was seasoned and flavorful. It was more expensive than we would normally spend on a dinner meal, I can say everyone left with their bellies full and ready for a nap. The servers were attentive and kept our dishes cleaned off the table while refilling our drinks. I would not recommend this as an every Sunday meal but occasionnally this would be a very nice treat!
