Casino Fandango TR 8/15/07

Staying in Reno but decided to drop down into Carson City to eat dinner with my brother. He suggested the buffet at this casino on the south end of town. It only took a half hour or so from the Peppermill. The casino isn%26#39;t big but it reminds me of the Peppermill with all of the lights inside. I wanted to get a players club card and asked at the cashier%26#39;s cage where to do so and she took down my info and went over and got it for me herself. That was very nice and/or she was very bored. The dinner buffet was usually $13.95 but August specials on Wed cut the price to $9.95 with a player%26#39;s card. Excellent selection and quality of food at the buffet. A variety of Asian hot foods, sushi (better than any other buffet I%26#39;ve seen), Mexican (tamales looked homemade!), seafood, carved meats, full salad bar, and full dessert bar. Also, 10-12 different flavors of gelato. Yes, gelato, not your typical soft serve out of a machine. I%26#39;d highly recommend this buffet and will return. I didn%26#39;t get a chance to play there but the variety of slots and vp looked good, and there are table games. There is also a coffee shop and steakhouse in the casino. The casino has covered garage parking (3-4 levels) and there is a Marriott Courtyard being built next door (casino does not have a hotel). Up the hill just above the casino they just opened a new digitial multiplex - I think it might be 10 screens. All in all, looks like this is a winner!

I think the prices at the buffet have gone back to regular. You only get the discount if you are using the players club points. Why go to Carson wen we have much more in Reno! Unless I%26#39;m getting someone else to pay for dinner! :)

One reason to go is to just enjoy getting away from Reno for a few hours!





Weather we go to Reno and stay couple days at Peppermill or Atlantas we always take off for Tahoe or Carson City and gamble and have lunch at Fandango%26#39;s or Bodines, the newest casino.





When staying a week at our timeshare Ridge Tahoe we do same thing and drive up to Reno for few hours!
