Anyone ever eat the buffet in Aqueduct's Equestris Restaurant?

Thinking of booking a reservation there for Sat.

Or how about any of the other restaurants there? I know theres one that has burgers and rotissiere chicken. Is that any good?

I was in the Equestris years ago for a tourney. I thought it was really nice in there. You might even have a choice between buffett and a sit down meal. From what I remember it was ok (not nearly as nice as the one in the Pegasus/Meadowlands). Chicken, macaroni/pasta (whatever you call it), salads and so on. Not sure if there was a carving station. But it was a nice place to watch the races.

The food at Meadowlands is pretty good!

Thanks. You have to get the buffet if you go Thurs-Sat of next weekend. A la carte is only for Wed and Sun. Its $30 a person and it sounds like they have a carving station and omletes, etc. Sounds like a good deal if you want a nice seat all day and after making the 7 hour round trip, I want to sit somewhere nice and avoid walking around. I'm hoping for a lot of pasta because you cant really wrong there.

Unless the Pegasus has improved dramatically in the last two years, I beg to differ. Equestris blows it away IMO.
