The Incredible Buffet in Southern California With Almost as Many Desserts as Main Dishes

Southern California has an unbelievable food scene and an overwhelming number of unique dining experiences. While buffets were once a common way to indulge in a variety of cuisines and flavors all in one place, they are harder and harder to find these days. The good news is that there is still at least one buffet that is unquestionably worth the drive to try. The Serrano Buffet just might be the best buffet in Southern California. This incredible buffet in SoCal offers a delightful variety of international cuisines, not to mention an epic selection of crave-worthy desserts.

The fantastic Serrano Buffet is located inside the elegant Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel. Book a room for a weekend of food and fun, or just come for an unforgettable meal at one of the best casino buffets in Southern California.

You can enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet at Serrano for breakfast, weekend brunch, lunch, or dinner. Over 100 dishes and desserts are prepared daily for the buffet. Try the freshly cooked pizza or watch as a chef prepares your favorite made-to-order pasta dish. Of course, you can balance out your meal with a stop by the soup and salad bar.

Choose to focus on one type of cuisine or sample several. One of Serrano’s unique offerings is a Brazilian-style carving station, complete with grilled meats and pineapple. Come for breakfast or brunch and put together a meal full of all your favorites without having to order multiple menu items. Some days are especially great for seafood lovers. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, Serrano offers an all-you-can-eat Lobster Buffet Dinner with all the trimmings. Visit on Friday or Saturday to enjoy Prime Rib and Crab Legs.

And then there are the desserts … oh, the desserts! With cupcakes, fruit tarts, mini parfait cups, cheesecakes, creme brûlée, pastries, cookies, donuts, and so much more, it is virtually impossible to try them all in one visit. Not in the mood for cake, pastries, or cheesecake? How about macarons, chocolate ganache cups, or cream-filled chocolate shells? Decisions, decisions…

Did we mention there is also a gelato station? If your dessert plate doesn’t look as varied as your dinner plate, you are definitely missing out.

Keep in mind that, due to its location at the casino, guests must be 21 or older to enjoy the buffet. Reservations are also required, and there is a 90-minute table time for every reservation.
