This MS Coast casino now offers all-you-can-eat crab legs without paying for the buffet
Residents and visitors in South Mississippi filled up their plates with unlimited crab legs at Coast casino buffets — until the high cost and the coronavirus pandemic changed casino dining.
Boomtown Casino Biloxi is among five out of the 12 in South Mississippi that didn’t bring back the buffet after they closed during COVID. Some of the other buffets that returned no longer have crab legs because of the high cost.
Now Boomtown will again offer all-you-can-eat snow crab legs weekends at its Pho Boy Asian Fusion restaurant for a lower price than the buffets.
“Legs and fixings” are featured at Pho Boy all day each weekend — from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and from 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Sundays.
“The fixings that come with them are corn and potatoes,” said Kyle Widdows, vice president of marketing at Boomtown.
The cost is $39.99 with a loyalty card and $42.99 without. The price of unlimited crab legs generally is $49.99 at those casinos that still offer them on the buffet.
Pho Boy is newly renovated, next to Stadium Sports Bar & Grill, on the main floor of Boomtown.
Also on the menu for those who don’t order crab legs are favorites such as General Tso’s chicken, pho, fried rice and a plate of royal red shrimp.
Boomtown, including its restaurants, is open to customers age 21 and older.
