The Carson Station Restaurant

Much better now! Had gone downhill for a while, but whatever the new management is doing, keep it up!!! Stopped in to check out the new menu and ended up having a burger and onion rings and it ROCKED!!! Service was good, place was clean. We will go back again sometime.

Huh. Now «Max’s Casino.» Slow service, but once it got started they did manage to come by often to keep coffee cups filled. Took a long while to fry a couple of eggs, though. Not very busy. Good corned beef hash, which I ordered instead of my usual Denver omelette since ham was not an ingredient listed under «build your own omelette,» which is kinda strange. Limited menu.

Went today for Mother’s Day breakfast. Menu has changed drastically, lots of old standbys are gone. Had the crab (note spelling) benedict. They were bad. Asked waitress if it was real crab, she didn’t know, but went to check and said it was, NOT. Could not taste the crab for all the filler in the cake. Hollandaise has also changed, no flavor. My husband had chicken fried steak and eggs, it looked good.
I am very disappointed that a place we have gone for years has made changes which i don’t feel are for the better. Doubt if we will be back.

Just not the same place without Jenny she was a very personal employee if anyone know where she is working let us know ok new management not very nice

Nothing much to say. It’s rather cheap and the food was good.
We had to wait a bit to be seated because the hostess was busy I guess.
Four stars because our waiter was awesomely awesome!

It’s a sad day when senior citizens don’t get the two for one salad bar anymore. It was very disappointing. Now you have to have at least 100 points in the previous month to be allowed this good deal for people on a budget. Please I hope they reconsider.

A good place to get common diner food, friendly staff. Stick to the basics and you won’t be disappointed. Husband wasn’t happy with eggs Benedict

While my husband and I were visiting his relatives, we had dinner at the restaurant. We ordered 10oz prime rib dinner came with soup & salad bar. It was very delicious and service was great. Elizabeth waited our table and we had very pleasant experience.
I only gave 4 stars because it needed TLC.

The listing outside of $ 8 – 11 «lunch specials» almost ran me off, but I’m glad I investigated because it turns out they have a nice lineup of all-​day breakfasts for $ 5. OK so the food is basically Dennys tier (it actually most reminded me of military chow halls) but it was big portions and acceptable for 5 bucks for a full meal. Real butter on the sourdough toast instead of that standard Butteresque Sheen even. Coffee and sodas only 1.50÷1.75 as well.
Burgers and sandwiches more like $ 7 – 8 (with sides), and then they have a tiny handful of dinner plates like a $ 12 steak and some $ 10 pasta plates. Good servers too. Totally doable for a budget meal.
There’s nothing wrong with the interior. If renovating the interior would drive the food prices up then no, don’t do it. Low pricing is the main thing this place has going for it.

An unplanned late lunch on a Sunday afternoon! The atmosphere is zero but the food and waitstaff were great! Everything had kind of a home-​cooked down-​home kind of taste and feel. Traditional diner/​grill kind of food that was real tasty but don’t expect light and healthy fare!
We ordered the buffalo burger medium $ 11 with onion rings $ 1 extra and added the salad bar for $ 2.50. It was cooked perfectly and was a huge burger with all the fixings and really filling.
I had the Patty melt $ 8 with fries and added the salad bar. Mine was a sirloin burger that had a lot of flavor and filled me up great!
We played a couple games of Keno which was fun and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed.
The salad bar is very basic and honestly some of the things looks like they had been out for a while but we just avoided those and our salads were really tasty!
The salad bar includes a soup bar and the soup was good. It was a vegetable beef with tasty meatballs.
Our waitress Elizabeth was one of the most friendly and truly caring waitresses I’ve had the pleasure of being served by and the keno runner Logan was a very polite young man and I believe Pedro was one of the chefs?
We will be back when were in the mood for some more Keno and good casino diner type of food.

I was not expecting much! But holly cow! The place needs a lil update but that’s the only negative thing I got to say lol First of all our waiter Grant was amazing!!! thank you! The staff were all great! Got coupons for our meal as well! No reservations needed. Got seated right away. Order our food. Time for wait was nothing. I ordered a sandwich I forgot the name but I’ll post a pic! You’ll be amaze! N yes it was delicious! And just for a $ 1 more u get onion rings! I was expecting 4 – 5. NO I GOT LIKE 15 pieces!. No der is no bar inside but der is one right around the corner. Kid friendly as well and free parking as well! Oh and almost forgot! A huge! Huge! Cinnamon roll for only $ 1.99! So worth it! And cheap as drinks at the bar! Bartender kicked ass!

The food was good, but the wait was not. I understand that they only had two chefs on the night we were there, but I felt that, as a casino, they should have been ready for a large dinner rush. However we had a nice of the waiter, a young man during the night shift, that definitely took the rush in stride and tried to make the best of the situation while simultaneously keeping the guests entertained.

What a great find — the staff and food are wonderful.

Okay… I wasn’t expecting much. Hoping it would not be bad. Boy was I surprised on how well everything tasted. The Chicken Fried Steak was moist, seasoned just right and the gravy was fantastic. The Corned Beef Hash was freshly made and it had a taste with a twist.
The server said everything is homemade and I believe her. What a little jewel.

This place was very good. Not sure why, on a holiday weekend, there were not many people at this casino. The staff was really nice and the food in the café was outstanding. The only reason it did not get 5 stars from me is that the management needs to spend a little to make this place more modern. 1950’s styles diners should be reserved for the 1950s…
