   We were very pleased with our dining in the Kitchen for the Prime Rib Buffet. There was a very good selection to choose from and almost every item we chose from the salad bar, hot foods and desserts were delicious and fresh. The only items we were a bit disappointed in was the Yorkshire pudding and its accompanying gravy. The Yorkshires were quite dry and the gravy was much too salty. The wait staff were very friendly and efficient and thoughtful in that they provided us with a special dessert for our anniversary which was scrumptious. We would definitely recommend The Kitchen as one of the best places to dine.

   Steak and prawns best value for your money. Had this promotion three times. We, seniors, are always looking for great deals which we can at River Cree.

   Went for the BBQ Buffet. Food was tasty, ribs were fall off the bone. They were always rotating the food so it was fresh. Lots of options even for dessert. Great value.

    We ordered when we first sat down. 1 person ordered a daily soup and a bruschetta. It took 40 mins before the soup came out because I had to ask twice where the soup was and the second time I asked the sever, not the waiter if he could just scoop a bowl of soup in a bowl and bring it to the table. Another 10 minutes go by and a couple appetizers come out along with a rice bowl. Still no bruschetta. We also ordered 2 of the taco specials which we were told would come out 10 minutes. I asked 15 minutes later and was told it should be right away. After an hour in the restaurant I cancelled the bruschetta and the 2 order of tacos. Will not be going back to the kitchen anytime soon.

    Great food as always, however service level is not as good as it should be. The food was very slow to come out. Note, - this was not the case on other occasions. Also, I’ve noticed that the waiters do not come to check your table as often as i other restaurants. Bill delivery also very slow. So,….give the waiters some extra training in all round service. On the positive - waiters are very polite and courteous.

    Went to The Kitchen restaurant before going to see Tanya Tucker on 7/14/22. Food was amazing. All four of us had the Steak and Prawns special for 21.99. My father in-law loves his steak rare and it has been years since he managed to get a rare steak at a restaurant. It's usually med-rare. The chef in the kitchen sent out a perfectly rare steak. Food tasted great and the value for money was on point. We will definitely be going back to try the other specials and the other restaurants. Very friendly staff both in the restaurant and throughout the resort. This is a great place to go for an evening out. Highly recommend.

    We went here for my Mother In Law Birthday day. She was very impressed by the quality of food and the selection she doesnt normally go to restaurants like this so she was so happy to come for the bbq buffet and we all loved it. The staff were friendly and professional and patient as my mother in law loves to talk and eat and can take a long time but they were very nice about it and we had a fantastic dinner and experience. I have been going to this buffet for years pre covid and now after covid and the service is still impeccable. Thank you a lot.

    We were greeted immediately and the host made small talk on the way to the table. He was very nice. Our server, Joseph was excellent. He was friendly & efficient. I almost feel bad giving the service such a low rating. But we received our appetizers well after our meal and we had to alert the staff that the appetizers weren’t served. In my experience, if something like that happens, a manager would come by to smooth things over and apologize for the over site on behalf of the staff. Not a big deal, but that is what I expected. As it turns out, we would have been better off not receiving the appetizers because they were not good at all and we paid for them. 2 orders of Garlic prawns. I would definitely not recommend them. The rest of the meal was fantastic. 2 grilled salmon dishes, a southwest rice bowl & finally the slow cooked short rib - all excellent! 2 desserts - molten lava cake & sticky toffee pudding - both were very good. We were seated at the back end of the restaurant looking over the kitchen. I think it is nice that we can see the kitchen but the smoke coming from the kitchen was very overwhelming at times. It was quite loud in there as well but we didn’t mind that since we were chatting. I would request to sit closer to the front of the restaurant if we go again. We met at The Kitchen because it is a good meeting spot for friends & ourselves to drive in to as we are at opposite ends of the city.

    My husband has a fruit allergy and was a little disappointed that they put fresh Strawberries all over top of all the desserts. We came for Father’s Day and the food was pretty amazing. I think they could have have a better selection for smaller kids (fresh fruits and veggies). We were seated in a bad spot that was kind of sticking out into the main flow of the buffet even though we made a reservation weeks in advance. I still had a great time and really loved the dining experience.

    It was our first time at The Kitchen. The food was okay - but we were expecting something better. Salmon shouldn’t be served in a buffet as it was quite dry from sitting, unless you get a fresh batch from the kitchen. Most of the dishes seemed oily and not a lot of great flavours. The desserts were great! For $50 each it was definitely not worth it. We won’t go back.

    Salmons were very overcooked and dry. Beef was so full of gristle and tough you could barely cut it never mind chew it. Vegetables were good but vegetables aren't worth $50. Our server was prompt and friendly. This was our first time here, would not go back unfortunately.

    Quantity not quality. Went for the BBQ Feature Saturday Night. Beef very tough and chewy. Most food cold (except for deep fried pickles). Poutine station a good idea, but can't reach gravy and the fries ice cold. Lamb very gamey. Salmon had lots of bones. Ribs and Pulled Pork were the best part. Wine selection good for the price. Server very good.
