Diamond Jacks
RESTAURANT: Diamond Jacks Casino
LOCATION: Vicksburg on the Mississippi River
ONE OF THE DATES WE VISITED THE RESTAURANT: 9/28/07
PRICE RANGE: Over Priced! (Once upon a time the food at casinos was a bargain. No longer is it. A buffet for two is $45.34. Add a tip to that, and you will have paid enough to have a nice dinner instead of mediocre food.)
FAVORITE FOOD: Seafood chowder. The only really outstanding dish was the chowder.
OTHER GREAT FOODS: I regret that there were no other great foods. We kept sampling food in an attempt to find something outstanding. As a result we overate. The fried oysters were good but not as tasty as most of the ones we've eaten.
FOOD WE LIKED LEAST: Gumbo (bland and unimaginative). The pies. The chocolate ice cream.
MOST OUTSTANDING FEATURE: The impressive display of food
SPECIALS: That weekend the feature was seafood.
APPEARANCE: The restaurant was clean and well organized, but the dishes were dirty. I picked up two plates before I found a clean one. There were no spoons in the containers by the soup and desserts.
SERVICE: Good. The employees have solemn expressions in this casino and in most other casinos.
COMMENTS: Too much sodium! The seafood was overly salty. That way people could not eat much of it. I managed to eat enough to make me feel terrible the next day because of the fluid retention.
On the way out, we saw several people going into the casino section. One poor lady was so drunk that her escort was steadying her. I don't know when I will have a desire to return.
