| - I'm a big fan of buffets. But this buffet definitely had that "old hotel" feel, and the food was just OK. The food was similar quality to Old Country Buffet (not to put OCB down, but at least their price is on point with the quality of their food!)
Just having arrived from our morning flight, we were practically starving when we got to the hotel. After checking in, we immediately went downstairs to the buffet. Luckily we used our resort credit of $30 that we got when we booked the room, because for free, the food was fine. We went here around 11ish am, so they were transitioning between breakfast and lunch.
PROS: I have to disagree with the reviewers that said they had no fruit selection or a good dessert area - since they had both! They had a nice selection of fresh fruit, and the dessert area was nice! They had little slices of different cakes and tarts (my fav!) - and they even had a crepes station. Their bread pudding was delicious, although I've had better elsewhere. I ate two servings! :) They also had a nice selection of cheese, and BBQ ribs were good. This was the prime location to watch the flamingos from inside, too.
CONS: It was I think $16 per person, which for the quality of the food it should have been closer to $9.99. I didn't touch anything on the salad bar, it all looked old and unappetizing. Even the person sitting next to us we overheard saying the same thing. I did manage to get some mixed corn from there but it had no flavor. They also had ceviche, which was questionable since I wasn't sure how long it had been sitting out, but tasted ok and I didn't get sick from it!
In conclusion, this place was ok for free, and for starving people. Otherwise, there are way better buffets in Vegas than this just a few minutes walk away!
