Changes Coming to Meadowlands Buffet Dining

Tuesday, January 4, 2022


The New Year brings a refreshed look to the Meadowlands Racetrack’s signature buffet.  The refresh includes new dishes including pesto gnocchi, bbq brisket, and roasted pork loin with yogurt mint sauce.  A larger variety of salads and desserts will also be found on the buffet. Saturday’s will continue to be highlighted by prime rib.

The buffet pricing has also been adjusted to reflect rising food costs and vendor shortages. The Friday buffet is $49.95 and the Saturday prime rib buffet is $64.95. Pricing does not reflect tax and gratuity.

Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made by calling (201) THE-BIGM and the complete menus can be viewed at https://playmeadowlands.com/dinings/

“We worked with our executive chef, Dennis Sammarone to bring new menu offerings to our signature Friday and Saturday night buffets,” said Jason Settlemoir, COO & GM of Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment.  “We would also like our customers to understand that we tried to keep the price increases as small as we could without compromising quality.  Overall we are excited for our customers to taste our new buffet selections.”
