Pot roast dinner with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables (the tomatoes were incredible bursts of sweetness) is a fantastic blend of flavor and the savory meat is cooked tender. I recommend it for anyone who enjoys a good roast. Also tried the Bavarian pretzel charcuterie appetizer, with meats, cheeses, chilis, olives, honey mustard... YUMMMMM-O!!! Meal sizes were great, portions were great, left without being hungry. Service by Jonathan was amazing. There was even a robot speaker station that came out to help sing happy birthday to someone (not me). Beautiful decor and lighting as well. Love the emerald tiles too.

We had the wings as an appetizer , soup, one chicken and one tomato, all of which was very good! I believe the soups are homemade. Then the grilled cheese and fries. A little too much as we were very hungry when we ordered, but will definitely return. Always pleased with the food and the service.

Food was very good. The service was excellent. The Buffalo salad was huge with a lot of chicken. I've never had this much chicken in any other restaurant I've ordered from. It is a true medium spice. Also got French onion soup which had just the right amount of cheese. Again staff was great. Been coming here for years.

Delicious and service was impeccable. Definitely got seated right away, the extensive menu was very impressive. For all of your casino dining needs this is a sure shot! It's not luxury but just right. Lil expensive for 4 pieces of bacon. Geeesh!

I recently dined at the Emerald Restaurant at Turning Stone Casino and had an exceptional experience. My waitress Tammy and the staff, including Jonathan and Robert, went above and beyond to accommodate my food allergies. They ensured that my meals were prepared correctly, avoiding gluten and specific oils that I'm allergic to. Their attentiveness and care made a huge difference. I'd definitely recommend them to others with dietary restrictions.

We have eaten here many times. Great food and service. Food is always hot and fresh. I had the Breakfast burrito which was large and filling was good. But next time I would order no chili on top Next day had my favorite Emerald Club, with the world's best fries!!

Had two meals, breakfast and late lunch here in the same day. Tammy is the best waitress....efficient and personable. The coffee was hot and good. Pitcher put on the table. Breakfast was a vegetable omelette for one of us with cheddar added. The omelette was fluffy and loaded with veggies. Home fries were subbed for cottage cheese. It was great. Companion had the lox and bagel that also had for lunch. Decent everything bagel, good portion of Nova lox, strips of English cucumber, tomato slices that looked to be heirloom, and pickled onions. Served on a cutting board rather than a plate. Really really good. For lunch companion had a Cobb salad prepared as requested, a good size and fresh. Last person had bacon eggs and toast. Needed to be remade as the eggs were undercooked and the bacon overcooked! Replaced quickly and satisfactory. Manager came over to discuss and apologize. A footnote-they are using robots to deliver food to the table and to remove bus boxes full of dishes. They get mixed reviews from the staff but bring a smile. It’s good to have such a good place open all of the time!
