    Ate dinner on Sunday night and the food and service were both excellent. Ribeye steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Diver scallops delicious. It’s a must to eat there ate least once in your lifetime when visiting the resort!

    Comped meal from the casino and I dined by myself. The adjacent table was two couples celebrating a birthday. The men were boorish, rude, crude and self important. They drank heavily and mistreated the staff. Other than that, my food and service were great.

    1875 never disappoints. Seated by the kitchen this time, which makes for a less than ideal ambiance, but delicious nonetheless.

    Mimi our server is the best! Prompt and super friendly service. We did notice the prices had gone up since the last time we were there and some of the menu items changed. My husband’s Caesar salad had some lettuce that was a bit brown. He also ordered the special scallops which were ok. Don’t mind paying higher prices if the food maintains the same quality, which seems to be sliding a bit. My steak however was delicious. Still love the restaurant!

    We had a great experience for dinner! Our server was very friendly and helpful. All of the food we ordered was amazing! Crab cake, wedge salad, 8oz filet, 14 oz ribeye, garlic mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, cheesecake and the cocktails were awesome! We’ve gone to high end steaks houses and this place was comparable if not better! Very pleased!

    there was a large group in the middle of the place. They were loud, used profanity, I thought I was at a sports bar. The table of 2 next to us was celebrating there anniversary and nobody could hear each other talk across the table. It would have been nice if someone with authority told them to keep it down, but instead they apologized to the rest of the restaurant as they left.
