    Dinner at the Market 253 is surprisingly great! I had a filet mignon medium rare and it was perfect. Veggie side was also perfect. Highly recommend for value and quality. It’s in the casino so ambience is as good as possible.

    Our server Jason was awesome! Everyone got there at the same time with large parties but it didn’t stop Jason from handling all of our expectations for a wonderful birthday brunch experience.

    Reservations recommended for a weekend evening, they get really busy and service is very slow. Food is pretty good.

    Loved the food and there was so much of it! There were many servers but ours was not available very often…wondering if she was helping out in the kitchen, though.

    Above average food. Some prices are a little high. Wine was over priced. Service depends on what’s happening. Very fast one time and very slow the next. Overall it will leave you satisfied.

    Food was good but could have been warmer. The fries were almost cold.

    We are late around 9:00pm, the restaurant was almost completely empty but service was still a little slow at times and a food selection we ordered was not available. The food we had was great, we started with the Diver Scallops and each of us had the Seafood Louie and shared a cream burlee' for dessert. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back again.

    Service was exceptional. Our waitress remembered our food order without writing anything down and she got it correct. The food however wasn’t that good. Hamburgers were bland garlic truffle fries were bland too didn’t taste any garlic seasoning. Chicken on chicken burger was dry.
