I recently had the pleasure of trying out the brunch specials, as well as their daily specials, at The Buffett, located inside Ace Casino Airport. The entire experience was a blend of surprises, both delightful and a tad disappointing, making it an outing to remember. The first thing that struck me as remarkable was the affordability and the wide array of choices offered on their menu. For the quality and quantity of food they serve, the prices were quite reasonable. An added bonus was the complimentary coffee and soft drinks that came along with the meal, making the brunch even more of a good value deal. However, the setting of the restaurant also came with its set of caveats. Being situated within a casino, it was a bustling space with a slightly noisy atmosphere due to the electronic betting machines. This background noise might not be a deal-breaker for everyone, but it's worth noting for those seeking a quiet brunch. Moreover, the establishment does not permit minors due to its location within a casino. This makes the The Buffett less than ideal for family outings with younger members. In summary, if you're an adult with a penchant for varied, ample, and value-for-money meals, The Buffett offers a delightful experience. However, it might not be the best choice for a peaceful, family-friendly meal due to its casino setting and the noise from the gaming machines. By the way, The Buffet does not serve buffet-style meals but their plate servings are more than average.
I'm not particularly someone that cares for gambling, but my family are frequent patrons that happily support ACE Casino every weekend. Tonight my grandmother got accused of stealing by the staff, before they properly looked at any security footage. Before staff members were able to get a proper hold of the situation, the supervisor, Serji aggressively yelled at her in front of everyone. My grandmother told them to look at the security cameras but he refused to listen. It wasn't until later that evening did Serji take half an hour to look at the evidence, and realize he was wrong. His apology was poor and had already defaced my grandmother's name to the public eye. I promptly ask for the ACE Casino to become more accountable and responsible so that this can be a safe environment for seniors or any customers to visit. I'm very disappointed I had to make this review in the first place. For any fellow patrons that visit the ACE Casino, don't bother showing up unless you want to get wrongly accused of stealing like my family did tonight. It is worth your time to go to any other casino in Calgary that offers better hospitality, security, and dignity.
I come to this casino on regular basis. Today I came , grabbed my breakfast as usual and then went into their pulse room to play baccarat. I placed a 25$ bet on banker to win and I was correct, except my winnings were not accounted to my credits only the initial bet of 25$ was back into my account as if no bet was made. I called the attendant and after going back in the machine we could see my bet was made and banker did in fact win. After some time the manager comes down to confirm everything and tells me I was awarded the winnings of 25$. She tells me that banker pays 1:1 meaning my 25$ bet that was put back in my credits was the winnings for a 1:1 bet. Completely shocked that the manager of a casino does not even understand the odds payout. Does not help that within the same time my machine does this my brothers does the same. Loved this place but the complete rude management and being made to look like I do not understand what I’m doing will make sure I never return. Complete joke.
For time at the casino, yesterday, and I will never go back. While the casino staff was fine, they really gave good customer service when my family and I walked in the door. The main issue I have was with the restaurant portion. It’s called The Buffet. I wonder why? We ordered the Luau Buffet, but there was nothing buffet about it. The server said it was not all you can eat- which is what a buffet implies. If you cannot offer a buffet, don’t call your restaurant that and also don’t advertise it as such. Now for the food. The food was mediocre at best. It was fried rice, with some fish cake and some vegetables, and some roast pig. it tasted like mall food court fried rice and the roast pig was dry even with the au jus on it. Not great, at all.
The food is is tasty ate 3 times here, and good prices at that. The only problem I have is that at the waited forever for the food , and at the blackjack table was waiting for a seat even though it’s a 6 person table but 4 ppl we’re playing all spots so I stood there hoping someone or the dealer would say something so I can sit in, even though you can play 2 spots u have to have a min bet on the 2nd spot and that was not happening so it comes down to the dealer should of made sure that the min bets were made or let ppl sit in. Not happy been here lots Again dissatisfied BUT FOOD IS GOOD , final got on table to play blackjack the dealers were funny and helpful,
This casino is a newer casino, and I do not understand how people can provide it with such low ratings. We visited on a rainy Thursday afternoon and found the casino to be comfortable, well lit and well attended by casino staff. This is a basic casino with the number of slot machines, as well as table games, like roulette, and a variety of poker games. There are also a number of restaurants. All of which appeared to be well attended on the evening that we visited. it is not super fancy and flashy but it was very comfortable and welcoming. We are glad we dropped in on the Ace Casino Airport.
Have only had the Casino Breakfast here for $5.88. It is done really well. 2 eggs, 4 pieces total of sausage and/or bacon, 2 pieces of toast and hash browns with refillable drink of choice. It’s cafeteria style so you order at the counter and get your utensils.condiments and drink yourself. They do have other breakfast options for a $1 or $2 more like avocado toast. Very clean eating area and friendly staff My only complaint is it would be nicer to have mugs for the coffee/tea instead of paper cups. Better experience and better for environment.
We went and tried out their Italian buffet today, little do we know their so called buffet night were charged by the plate, not that we can finished the portion given but surely wishes it was the real buffet we all accustomed to! The dine in area were no more than the size of ordinary hotel cafeteria by all means. There is one positive note I can give were their generosity on free drinks such as soft drinks, coffee and free of which I found in multiple location around the Casino. Good place to gather, minus the buffet for now!
Not a gambler, but did try the slot machine (LOL). We enjoyed the fried rice, wonton, szechuan chicken, and ginger beef. It was delicious and the servings are of larger quantities. The attentive waitresses have similar attributes / looks- possibly manager preference? It's nice to see a variety of different servers with a variety of attributes/looks/age at other restaurants, as this adds a touch more class and maturity. Needless to say, we will return for the dining, but not for the one-armed bandits! LOL!
Nice little casino that offers cheap breakfast and AYCE dim sum. Be prepared to be self-sufficient (e.g. serve yourself, find your own table and possibly even clean your empty tables). This is the reason for the star reduction. There doesn't seem to be enough staff around to be helpful and direct people as I saw a number of people standing around thinking they will be seated by someone. Be sure to sign up for their membership card to win credits to either gamble or cash out to pay for your food.
Overall this casino is great. The tables are and staff are awesome especially the Blackjack ones. But my only issue is the poker room and Melinda she is horrible which is why I am rating this low. She just makes the experience unenjoyable and harrased my friends the entire time while he was playing. Don't ever go play poker here and tell your staff to treat the customers with some respect. Because of this I won't be returning to burn my money at this casino anytime soon.
Great one year anniversary event with free sample beer and wine with light snacks such as dim sum and sushi. One of the largest casino next to several hotels, off Deerfoot and Airport Trail and right beside the Calgary Airport. This casino has alot of games, Black Jacks, baccarat, craps, roulette and slots including Poker. Daily drinks and Flames game specials, live music on the weekends. Free parking with self serve coffee, tea and pop. Nice brand new facility.
Went there to look around and have lunch. Spent only about $30 in the casino area. It's new and clean. We ate at Buffet/The Kitchen. We had fish and chips and a Smashburger. Both meals were delicious and an excellent value. That's even before the free coffee and pop. The employees were very pleasant. My only minor complaints is that it was cool in the eating area and it was a bit slow getting our food. Still I would recommend. We will be going back.
Absolutely disgusted by how patrons are treated here. You'd think a casino is a place to find enjoyment and entertainment among friends, not a place that makes you feel like you're a criminal. Reading some of the other reviews shows me that I'm not the only one that feels this way. Do yourself a favour and spend your money elsewhere. Some of the employees at this place really need to get off of their high horse and get a sense of human dignity.
Ace Casino is a great spot to have a great time with family and friends. It has a great atmosphere to enjoy your time there. We go up there to win a little money,have awesome food,different meals for different days. You can go up for the different poker tournaments. Different levels on how much you want to play for. The staff are friendly and helpful with your needs.. So go enjoy yourself, win money and great food.
Hours of operation on the website and Google maps are 24 hours on Friday. I came at 7:00 AM, Friday, 9.12.2022 and it was closed. No stuff, no security, nobody answers for my call. I have never seen such awful kind of awful service. You position yourself like the biggest and the best casino in Calgary, but you are the worst. I spent my time and fuel to come from other side of the city and see closed doors.
Not a place I’d recommend to anyone. A staff member, Serji, wrongfully accused a lady of stealing in a very public and angry manner. When she protested that she was innocent and he had the wrong person, he insisted that she was lying and refused to do something as simple as checking the security tapes until much later. Go somewhere else if you want to be respected as a person and not treated as a criminal.
We go here for Dim Sum Buffet on Sunday but sadly you can’t call it buffet. It’s by plate only they give you everything (about 5-6 different kind of dim sum) and you can’t get more if you want more unless you pay again. Very disappointing plus the dim sum is just warm not very fresh. Should improve the food quality to bring more customers. We feel it’s not worth although it’s like $13.88 per person.
I really enjoyed the experience. But there is not that much floor service for drinks. I think this casino is very innovative. I went to the area where I could play on an electronic table to play roulette and black jack live. I enjoyed not reaching over people, and not dealing with grouchy people on the table. The middle bar service was good, he looked like he might want to smile but all business
We ordered dishes separately because the advertised buffet was a bit sparce. Pop and coffee were free. The dishes we ordered were a bit on the spicy side, which my son enjoyed, but his sister had to space out with rice. The casino was clean and not very busy, so we were able to play a few slots before heading home. We each won a little (up to $30) and then lost it again. We enjoyed it overall.
Unfortunately we were limited for time when we came....wished we could have stayed longer. Next time, we are planning to have dinner and enjoy an evening here. I should make mention they have a nice complimentary coffee and soft drink station for their guests which is truly appreciated. I also noticed that the machines were regularly wiped down. This is really appreciated and it's a nice touch
Melinda in the porker section is horrible. Randomly came up to me and accused me of giving my friend some chips when he clearly had chips from the blacksjack tables and when I told her I didn’t she continued to bother me the entire time I was playing. If I could I’d give her a zero out of 5 stars she needs to be kicked out of the poker area and put on server duty. Messed up my whole game
Clean casino. Not a fan of the poker chips, they are too new and hard to grab, stacking them constantly felt like a chore..... The players at the table aren't very good either, was not very challenging to double my money. Would not recommend good poker players to come and play. Be heading back to that other casino where the chips smell like pee and it takes 40 mins to get a drink.
Went on a Fri and Sat night. The place in a ghost town, not a "Happening or jubilant" atmosphere at all. Almost like its where the gambling addict's go to hide. In true ACE fashion the most out dated slots and tables in Calgary. I swear they just take hand me downs from Better Casinos. Dont expect to play something new. In all the worst Casino in Calgary, probably Western Canada
Cool, but the texas holdem shuffling machine is kinda rigged, it gives you same hands over and over and very rarely hit any trips and i know its reasonable to not hit trips often but when u play 15-20 consecutive hands and still none, i just know its rigged because other casinos once every 10 hands you will make trips atleast once, but recommend black jack its awesome
Very friendly staff, amazingly priced food and delicious! Also, it is a very clean establishment right from the staff grooming, bathrooms, restaurant, and casino floor. I highly recommend trying this place out! I'm from Vancouver and would choose this casino over ours any day! Sorry Vancouver, but you're ridiculously overpriced and under deliver!
Very excellent breakfast staff cook Angel and servers and greeters Mustafa, Reina and Miki working at breakfast buffet and the food from the breakfast buffet best breakfast deal in Calgary. The casino environment was very modern and clean it is also one of the few casinos that offers free coffee and tea they also host excellent SLT tournaments
Didn't win. But lots of slots and table games. Clean. Security is not the friendliest. Feels I'm walking thru TSA precheck. I've been with all casinos in Calgary, and even in Kananaskis, security personnel here are just not that friendly, like they have a second job in the airport. Great staff in Customer Service, always smiling and helpful.
First time visitor. Loved the experience. The casino door staff were very friendly and welcoming. They answered all of my questions politely and with a smile. Casino was open concept, very bright, spacious, and extremely clean. Self serve coffee and soft drinks were self serve which I prefer. I will absolutely come back to this place!
The breakfast has friendly, fast service. The people working there are great. There is an awesome menu for everyone that is of high quality. We enjoy the atmosphere and the people there. We probably wouldn’t gamble here if it wasn’t such a great breakfast atmosphere. It draws you in for sure. Good work Joan Durand
Wow, we went for the seniors breakfast. I can’t believe it is so well priced. Even included juice and coffee. Available from 9 to 11 weekdays. At time of writing this, it was $3.88 . The picture of my plate shows 3 eggs but it comes with 2. My wife just gave me one of hers. Also, the rye toast was amazing. …
Really nice stadium game section. All electronic with 2 live dealers. Floor setup is quite nice as well. Would say need alot better service on the floor for weekends. Also need to have a cleaner pop, coffee, tea station. Smelled gross. Beer is pretty good price at $5.25. Would say it's more like 3.5 star
Great casino - looks like Vegas in Calgary, which is a welcome change from some of the more dated places around town! Dealers are always happy and laughing. Dinner at the restaurant was delicious, though the portion was huge. Definitely out of the way if you don’t have a flight, but worth the drive!
The casino is great, it's only the restaurant that is disappointing. The ladies working the front speak zero English and communicating with them is difficult. The Buffet is not a buffet at all, it's just the daily special. Lastly, when you order from the menu the food takes forever to be prepared.
My first time here since it opened and I was pleasantly surprised how big and bright the casino is. Had a meal here and it was good and reasonably priced. Lots of slots and tables to play, but for me I didn't find too many slots that I enjoyed playing. I will probably be back with friends.
Way bigger on the inside than it looks! Drink prices reasonable - service needs some work but the staff is very pleasant and service charges on atm are slightly lower then other venues. Overall a pretty good place to burn off a couple of hours and maybe make more than you spend :)
Of course because it's new it was very bright and clean, but the staff were very nice, and the atmosphere was comfortable. What else can you say, it's a casino, come spend money lol but they seemed to have some really great dinner options and the breakfast special is really good.
Good service, big and clean, lots of free drinks like coffee, tea, pop, and water. Lots of parking. If you have problem with the machines, just tell the security staff which section (on top of the machine) you are in, they will call the staff to come and fix it for you.
Shoutout to ACE Casino Airport. Invited to an exclusive event/contest and they wined and dined us with the most delicious beef short rib! It’s a weekly Wed night special, and it’s soooo damn good. Super impressed with the food and service here in general. Give it a try!
This is a place with a good location near the YYC International Airport if you're planning to spend time there before you fly out. There is a 24/7 poker room, a nice restaurant slot machines, blackjack tables, roulette tables, and good staff service overall. …
Had an amazing opportunity to Visit ACE Casino last night and was greeted with various meal options to taste, service and management were outstanding!!! Highly recommend this as an Corporate / Personal option to be considered. Good Work - ACE is the Place!
Very clean and lots of sanitizer available. Drinks were reasonably priced. Love the free water/pop/coffee station. Lots of space throughout the casino so you're not too crowded. The staff are friendly and welcoming. A really good casino experience.
Food is good. Atmosphere is great! Visit this place every time I come to Calgary. Play on the table games and never had issues with any of the dealers. They have always been friendly and welcoming. I have recommended other to check this casino out.
Went to this place cause my aunt wanted to check it out but man I kinda wish we went somewhere else... Security seems like they think they're at like a prison or something... super weird... place was nice enough but I'm definitely not going back
Great casino but Melinda at poker tables is horrible. She came to us accused of giving chips to my friends. Like you have camera check them before you come screaming. Very stupid. She deserves to be fired. But everyone else is amazing
If I can put zero star I will... The Filipino staff (Marisha?) at the buffet station should not be working here. Extremely rude to customers. We have been here a few times, and at all instances her behavior is totally unacceptable.
Casino was super busy for a early Sunday evening. New place for worship I guess. JK. It's a great new casino with amazing vibe. Rotate the new games in quite often which is great. Seems to cycle with how tight the games are.
First of all the food was good. Decent size portion. But biggest disappointment was there is no buffet. It's false advertising. Sure it's a buffet but u pay for a single plate of it they dish up for you...
Casino invites people from all walks of life and that's where it could get nasty. I loved this place as I found it clean, no smoke or weed smell around. The dealers were patient and definitely not rude
We tried the restaurant in the casino for breakfast. The prices were phenomenal! A two egg breakfast with toast hash browns and 4 sausage links was only $5.89. You can't hit McDonald's for that price.
Went for the breakfast before having a play on the machines. It is truly a big breakfast at a ridiculously low price. Then had a flutter on the machines, good fun and a great way to spend a few hours.
Decided to give this place a try since its closer to me than Cowboys, but I watched the staff get pushy with an older lady they were accusing of stealing. Kinda put a damper on the experience :/
Great little Casino, the Sports bar has amazing food at great prices. The "Buffet" resturant is very misleading, ots a cafeteria style eatery, there is no buffet. Bit overall, Love this place.
we did takeout and the fried rice and fried noodles were okay but the philly cheesesteak bread was mouldy and the meat tasted dry and stale :( we only noticed after we’ve finished most of it
In the last month I've come here twice. I had the steak and eggs one night and the prime rib another a week later. The food is great and you can't best the price for $9.99. Yum! …
The place is brand new . Beautiful carpets ,well illuminated, large aisles. Friendly staff atmosphere and customers. Excellent food at very reasonable cost. Great Saturday's brunch.
New , Nice & clean inside. Food good, complain about buffet (not much items . small plate & wait for serve ) . I give higher star than usual because of supporting new business.
We had dinner in the sports bar and the food was good and so was the service. The machines were also good to me and the employees that brought the hand pays were friendly too.
Good casino place and good food. Bear in mind this is not all you can eat buffet but instead they give you per serving price. The amount of food is quite large for the price
I was not a player this time. But this casino is clean, bright, spacious, and dare I say it, comfortable. You could end up winning or losing a lot of money in this place.
Hard to cash out money if you are out of province. We were 3 gambling a few hundreds and we all lost. Very difficult to get bonuses for all of us compared to Grey Eagle
Disappointing as the buffet was not a true buffet. U only pay for a single plate that they dish up.... fail.... order a plate it's cheaper and food was pretty good
I met Vicky (dealer), she is Chinese decent at Blackjack table. She was very nice and helped me out how to play blackjack. I wish all dealers staff are like her.
Prices are very competitive, pop and coffee is free. The food was okay, some items were better than others. The warm brownie was not warm when I ordered it
Save your money. This place even thou its brand new os really not worth it. Very small casino and limited games. You are better off just playing lottery.
Nice room! Good dealers, friendly players... what more can you ask for from a morning tournament? Good strucuture, 20 minute levels... enjoyed myself.
Was me and my wifes 1st night out in months. Had a great time . Won some cash. Everyone was completely chill. Recommend to anyone
Great place! Food is affordable, and the slot games are fun. I went there almost 6 days in a row! Would definitely go again
First time there, a very nice venue but slots seem to be pretty tight. Good thing I go there for fun not to make a fortune.
Rochelle Fogarty is always excellent with her service to the client who dine.She's awesome. Good Job Ms.Rochelle F❤️
The Mon roast beef buffet is NOT a buffet. Limited selection of sides (2) and one serving. Will not be going back!
Had some fun with their Table games. If it's for fun, this place is good.. If it's for big money, may be not …
We had a lovely time celebrating my sisters 70th birthday. The room was lovely and all the staff was very friendly
Beautiful brand new Casino, super clean, staff was very friendly. Food was delicious, different buffets everyday.
Love this place, high ceilings less noise, the food court is clean and spacious with individual area.
Have dim sum buffet on Sunday, reasonable prices, but only one plate serve by behind counter person
We go to ACE for the great meals! Friendly service, good prices, awesome portions, decent variety.
One of the few casino's I won at, so yes 5 stars . Right behind my hotel , no need to drive …
It was just ok. Good way to blow an¹ hour before the flight . Clean free coffee and soft drinks .
Great food, great place to spend 20$. I went once and I won a jackpot. Would like to come back.
The servers, bartenders and dealers were all very friendly. Had a very enjoyable evening.
It's a big place nice and clean. Wonderful staff. It's a lot of fun. Enjoy going there.
It's nice, not too big. Only complaint is that I never get bar service on the floor.
Food wasn't too bad a little pricey but it's a casino clean nice atmosphere
Pretty decent for a good time. $5 table mins are nice to play for fun
Two spins 1400 bucks clean place new slots easy parking
New to me very pleasant and very nice staff. Good food!
