RIVER ROCK SEAFOOD Buffet

Feasting Junkies Blog:
feastingjunkies...
The Buffet at River Rock has been a long standing buffet in Vancouver throughout the years. Being part of the River Rock Casino, it brings the grand decor of the casino to it's dining room. The food selection varies from the particular day of the week with weekends (Fri/Sat) being the days where the best dishes are served.
While the weekend buffets are very good, you need to set you expectations carefully on those other days. Weekdays tend to offer your typical run of the mill buffet items. So if you're looking for a grand glutenous experience, pick you days carefully.
Price/Value of the meal was quite reasonable dinner will run about $29 (weekdays) - $39 (weekends). As a tip, make sure you get the free rewards card from the casino for a 10% discount.
If you're in the area (technically in Richmond), give it a try. Would recommend the place for their weekend offerings.

I so enjoy your videos! Your menu and food descriptions are so thorough and informative...great cinematography, and your food knowledge so complimentary! Thank you for sharing. No doubt the Buffet Locations are always happy when you arrive to feature them!

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

You are too kind Jeanne. Just having fun and being a bit silly here, but it does make eating out more interesting. Not very good with the camera, but thank you for the kind comment :-)

[@jaredgiff6342]

Your videos are really nice my man. You have a chill demeanor and you are honest in your feedback without being overbearing. Thanks for the good content.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you Jared!!!

[@thipham5707]

Hi Tim, I wish I had seen this video before my last Vegas trip a few months ago. You made this buffet seem more worth while. Thanks for the content! Maybe on my next trip.

I don’t know anyone other than you who has eaten at more restaurants. It’s almost hard to believe. I love it! - Stephanie

I get to eat at a buffet tomorrow for breakfast! Nothing like this, but I just LOVE buffets! Enjoying your exploits. Appreciating your efforts, Bonnie

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Hi Bonnie, I hope you had a good experience there. I've been noticing it becoming a bit and miss. I went for a weekday dinner and it wasn't as grand as it could have been. Just curious about how your breakfast was.

[@boncoon]

Good morning, Tim! It was a Furr's buffet, so the best part of it was the pecan pie - although I have fun experimenting with all the available choices. This time I had a burger pattie with LOTS of blue cheese, scrambled eggs, and bacon ... and fresh spinach. You are a joy! Have a wonderfilled day (everyday)! Love, Bonnie @@TimLeeLetsGo

[@amyrivers9792]

Hi Tim, great to see you again. You are so good at filming all the food really clearly and letting us know what everything is. The pavlova's origin is a much debated topic between here and Australia. The only thing we agree on is that it was named after the dancer Anna Pavlova. It is one of my favourite desserts and most years I have it on my birthday instead of a cake. I've never had crab before which is unusal as I basically live on a massive island but I'm a very fussy eater. It was really interesting seeing how to get all the meat out. I hope that you and your friends are well.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Amy Rivers thanks and it's great to hear from you. Hope you're doing well and the pavlova is certainly a favorite of mine as well. It's nice that when all 2 countries have to argue about is dessert 🙂

[@dorenejohnson5230]

I know it"s 2 years later, I just got hungry for a Seafood Buffet and I know you can point me in an eye feast buffet while I sip some peach tea. Smiles!

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Did you get a chance to go out for a meal now and then... even for takeout?

[@dorenejohnson5230]

@@TimLeeLetsGo I've been so disappointed with food delivery lately it's just awful and the costs are so expensive, so I'd rather just save for some traveling coolness. With that comes the responsibility of fending for myself... I can make sandwiches and soup and last night I saved myself from stomach trauma by eating apple sauce and drinking water. (sssh not so secret alert) I'm an eater, not a cooker. I've tried. I tried making a frozen chicken pot pie in the oven and my hand got burned so no cooking for me. So I depend on you for my EYE FEASTS! LOL!

Liked the food, liked the lights...

Legit my new fav food reviewer!!! So many new spots I have to try.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thanks Justin. Just doing these videos for fun and by no means a reviewer :-) Thank you so much for your kind comment. Are you from Vancouver?

[@Illmatix420]

Tim Lee Vancouver island is where I reside. So it’s a quick ferry ride over if I want to hit some of the spots you’ve featured. I’ve tried the Pan Pacific buffet, River Rock (got lucky and showed up on Friday, which apparently is Dungeness crab night!! And the all you can eat Indian buffet in Delta. Next up is a solid dim sum buffet🤤🤤

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Justin love Vancouver Island! Got a chance to visit there and it was amazing! So peaceful and relaxing 🙂. Any recommendations on where to eat? Heard many good things about Nourish😋

[@twizzlerlover91]

Hey Tim, just going back on earlier videos! The patience you had cracking the snow crab,not for me 🙄, but then that omelette with the crab and sea food.....I would definitely have my fork sharing that with you! Mussels and clams,sashimi (I think I saw) the sushi had too much rice. Even though I stay away from carbs,that fried rice looked great and of course I would have indulged in the shumai and fried dumplings (looking awesome). Thanks for sharing,Merrill.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thanks again Merrill, we've been going to this place for years and it's pretty good. Good idea to stay away from the carbs😀..

The second time I’ve seen him pour butter over the Omelet, Tim is a Food Trend Setter

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

LoL ... that was a bit too much butter on that occasion :-)

[@southside.o.g.9331]

Tim Lee yeah I know, but the effect of over indulgence is what we're all looking for in a buffet setting Lol Did I Just Say That....???

[@MonsterMetalManiac]

“A bit” too much ?? Lol. Jeez Tim. To each his own but there really is no need to drench a nice seafood omelette in clarified butter. It’s just overkill.

[@janvdb9258]

@@MonsterMetalManiac clarified butter is perfectly healthy and the nutty taste just makes eggs better

[@wiseman4160]

I just had wild salmon with mixed vegetables, definitely not as yummy as that Buffet, looks like lots of yummy food i noticed lasagna, i'm on a low carb diet so for me i would only go to this yummy buffet on a cheat day. Thanks Tim for showing us another yummy buffet!

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

wise man hope things are warming up for you over in Winnipeg. Congratulations on the low carb diet! I have been eating that way for about 4 years now and it was one of the life saving gems of knowledge that I've found. (On a personal note, I started it for high blood sugar which is all better now). If you need any support, please let me know...it was life changing for me. Please note that while you saw that big plate of dessert, all I had eaten was what was seen on the video. The friends ate the rest 🙂. How long have you been on the diet? Just make sure not to fear fat and have as much fat and salt till you're full. Way to go! 😄

[@wiseman4160]

Been on this diet since March 17 2018 but before this diet i was already trying to eat healthier, but i was surprised i was able to stick to this diet or as some would say new eating lifestyle. My health has always been good as far as blood test go, but i'm a big guy so even though i was exercising a lot i still didn't look healthy. I have been getting some compliments about how i'm looking thinner now which is wonderful! So now my exercising is making me look healthier. I'm only afraid of foods that are high in sugar or high in carbs. I have pasta once every seven days only, and i only have bread twice a month for me never having bread and never having pasta is unrealistic. People that are on a low carb diet can reach for salt because we are lacking sodium. Now i understand why you avoid bread in the videos there was a part of me that thought you were trying to avoid carbs. I'm losing weight for two reason to be even more healthier and also because i'm only attracted to women that are no more than 30 pounds overweight. Want someone that looks healthy and trying to take care of their health, i'm trying to take care of my health but the looking healthy part will take a while.

Nice video.Food only looks "ok"

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Yeah, it's a local place in Vancouver Canada... and agreed...

[@jenyung7254]

Ate here 3 times. Not bad for dinner with an entire room of fellow workers. Second and third time not as good. Quality not as great and selection of cold seafood limited to 2 choices. The roast beef was VERY well done and tough. Couldn't cut it with my dinner knife and hard to chew.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Jen Yung I totally agree. The weekday offering (and Sunday night dinner) can be so disappointing! I've recently found out that there are some real gems at the golf courses, but they're out in Surrey and Langley. Amazing offerings at an incredible price

[@wilsoncahoon268]

Snow crab legs are good but Dungeness crab is even better

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Agreed! It takes a bit of work to eat, but well worth it :-)

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Hi Tim. The place is located in Richmond (a suburb of the Vancouver region). It's unique in the fact that there is a large Asian population there. You'll find pockets of areas in Vancouver where there's a large cultural population. I grew up in an Italian neighborhood and was fortunate to be invited to fantastic dinners😉. Cheers
