Review content:
I've only got one good thing to say about this place, so I'll start with the gripes. First of all, it cost ten dollars per person to eat at the buffet. I figured, oh well, its a steak buffet, of course its gonna be a little more expensive. The only problem with that is that the place should be called Pi?ata Canyon because it looks good on the outside but is really just a box full of junk on the inside. The steak was nowhere to be found. On the buffet line they had piles of poorly cooked, dried out meats (ham, chicken, pork roast), a salad bar and a random assortment of common foods that buffet restaurants cook because they don't know how to make anything else and are too lazy to stick with a theme. Why in the world would you go to a steak buffet to find spaghetti and pizza. Every other buffet in the world has tried adding pizza to their menu because, ""maybe the kids will like it."" But the truth is, buffet pizza is never good, and Coyote Canyon did nothing to change that truth. Moving on. We only saw our waitress once while we were there. When my wife wanted a refill of her soda, she walked over to the soda machine where all the waitresses were standing around shootin' the s!@#, and it wasn't until she made the move to fill her own glass that the waitress cut in and offered to help. Ok, back to the food. It might be a good idea for Coyote Canyon to change their name from steak buffet to something a little less misleading like ""really bad Mexican food and meat piles with other junk too."" I was surprised that more than half of their buffet was Mexican food. Now I love Mexican food, but everything was either dry, bland, or a combination of the two. Finally, I will end on a positive note. The desert section at Coyote Canyon is awesome. They had tons of different pies and cakes including Pecan Pie, Cinnamon Bunt, Carrot Cake, Oreo Pie, etc. Plus they had a good selection of real ice creams and sherbets. Great Desert. Bad Food. I'm out.
Pros: Desert
Cons: Value, Service, Food
