My husband & I have been to casinos in Las Vegas, Mississippi, Michigan, New York & W. Virginia. We read reviews of Mountaineer but didn't believe them. We like to find out for ourselves. We don't expect to come home winners all the time. But it would be nice to win a little bit to keep you playing for awhile. We have spent 3 days in Las Vegas & Mississippi & our money lasted those 3 days. At Mountaineer we lost everything we took after 5 hours.

We thought we'd try the buffet for $8 before we headed home. The roast beef was tough, didn't like the chicken (we prefer ours fried), scalloped with cheese was the only choice of potato, the Asian bar was terrible, the Italian wasn't much better. I did try pizza & some kind of roll wrapped food that was hard & dried out. The salad & desserts were good.

This was our first & I will add, our last time going to this casino & it is the shortest drive for us. We rate Wheeling Island and Allegheny Seneca in NY as tops on our list. Although we did not play the table games & did not stay at the hotel we were forced to give a review grade so they both got a 1.
