They have flavor that is more intense and has a slight gaminess about it.

Dry-aged steaks lose about 50 percent of their moisture content during the aging process and develop a crust on the surface. All steaks are Angus or Prime cuts, most of which are wet-aged plus a couple of dry-aged options. The menu will be transitioning from winter to spring, so we tried a few of the upcoming dishes as well as holdovers from the winter menu. There are white and tan pillars throughout the room, white linens and plushly padded chairs and booths for the ultimate in comfort. It’s a two-story affair with floor-to-ceiling windows offering great views of the desert landscape below. Anyone inline after pays full price so don’t be late.The elegant Cielo restaurant on the 27th floor of the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa is now an upscale steakhouse with a wide array of steaks and seafood. The 2 for 1 buffet ends at 2 PM and at that time a Casino employee gets at the end of the line. We will try it again but probably mid-week when the prices are lower and hopefully the crowds shorter. the Pala Casino's buffet or the Valley View Casino’s buffet - Morongo’s really lacks in quality. If I compare the Morongo’s buffet against e.g. All low cost cheap items that you would expect to find at a home town buffet. The deep fried shrimp was very good but the orange chicken was over cooked and the orange sauce was not very flavorful, the fried rice was also good. No Chili Relleno, fajitas, Chimichanga’s and the enchiladas looked soupy. The Sunday buffet was the international menu so there was a lot to choose from but for instance the Mexican dishes were low cost items like make your own tacos, refried beans and enchiladas and another dish that looked unappetizing. Since we took advantage of the 2 for 1 Champaign offer I will say it was worth the $26.95 we paid but definitely not worth double that. I'm somewhat surprised by all the rave reviews. We actually made it in in 1.5 hours but still a long wait. I had read the reviews and they were pretty accurate about the 2 hour wait. I took my wife for the Sunday champagne brunch for her birthday after a trip up the Palm Springs tramway.
