The Lodge as a casino is fun and spacious, but their buffet is not worth the price. It is small, crowded and when I found out their steak is kept in grease the entire time prior to throwing on the grill I was not happy. That is very gross and the fact that I could taste the grease on every bite of my steak was worse. I barely ate their food because it was dry, it is not seasoned and it taste bland. The cashier was rude and had an attitude. I will spend the extra money and eat at Ameristar next time for a bigger, open buffet, and their friendly workers.
