| - Food-wise, this place is awesome and tops my fave buffet list, knocking Wicked Spoon out of the top spot. I loved their Asian section and almost everything we had was delicious. The peach lemonade also hit the spot, adding some more calories to the mix!
Quick tips:
- Sign up for a Total Rewards account and you get a $1 off the buffet price.
- Go about an hour before the food prices switch from lunch to dinner. You'll pay about $10 less and after a while, they'll start switching things over to dinner time menu!
- Go in the Caesars Palace front lobby/check-in entrance to find this place. If you try to find Bacchanal from the Forum Shops, you will walk for approximately a million miles and need to hire a sherpa to lead the way, since Caesars doesn't have any signage leading to it along the way!
Food list, from what we could remember:
Asian section: Young Chow fried rice, ma po tofu (no pork), lo mein with chicken, king pow chicken, soup dumplings, deep fried dumplings (gyoza), spring rolls, steamed BBQ pork buns, spicy fish, blackened chicken soup, miso soup, hot and sour soup, edamame, seaweed salad, marinated shrimp with cucumbers, spicy tuna roll, California roll, shrimp tempura roll, salmon and tuna sushi, made to order ramen, pho, or udon.
Small salad bar (SKIP, duh)
Italian section: Sliced salami and other meats and cheeses, variety of pizzas, garlic bread knots, meatballs, penne a la vodka, vegetable pasta, individual lasagna dishes.
Mexican station: At least 10 types of salsas and guacamole, refried beans and chips, pulled chicken in salsa verde, made to order mini steak or pork tacos (pork taco not tasty), Mexican rice.
4 kinds of soup including clam chowder, cream of mushroom. Assorted breads and rolls.
BBQ/American section: Coleslaw and other cold salads, corn on the cob, Mac and cheese, baked beans, 4 kinds of sausage, ribs, ham, brisket, corn dogs, waffle fries, mini sliders (no good), normal tater tots, sweet potato tater tots, truffle potatoes Au gratin, fried chicken and sweet potato fries.
Seafood section: Shrimp and grits, mussels pot, clambake, shrimp cocktail, crab legs (split in half), ceviche (dinner only), oysters (dinner only).
Desserts - gelato and sorbet, lots of cakes, warm chocolate cookie, molten lava cake, at dinner they added chocolate covered strawberries, mochi balls, gelato, macaroons, crepes with fillings bar, chocolate mousse lollipops and strawberry cheesecake lollipops.
If you go at weekend brunch, the price includes unlimited mimosas.
Complaints:
- The price is like whoa, crazy. I guess if this is your one meal for the day, it's reasonable. I don't know if they can justify a $10+ premium on Wicked Spoon, although they have a wider selection.
- FOODS ARE NOT LABELED. There are some sections with a half-assed attempt, but most of the things just flat-out aren't even labeled. For example, 4 types of soup - not a single label. This is just stupid.
- The layout/design of certain sections are also stupid. The designer should be forced to go through the buffet and see what kind of contortionist positions are required for some of the serving areas, like the soup, which has a comically oversized ladle and a shelf right above the soup tureens, so there's no logical way to get soup easily without spilling half of it on the counter - fun! All the sauces for the meats are at the front of the carving station, so you have to backtrack to put sauce on meats after you've gotten yours carved. Same with a backwards setup on the seafood. Hire someone with half a brain to re-arrange things!
