| - My friend and I decided to go here on a whim and ended up not only feeling like ballers (that price tag is quite hefty...) but also full of the best buffet food I have EVER had the pleasure of eating.
Let's begin with decor. The place was decorated in a very modern fashion, down to the glass cases of king crab, the comfortable chairs and extra-soft napkins, and even the lounge music! I was surprised the wait was so short as well (20 minutes for a 7:30pm dinner). Then again, it was the Monday after Thanksgiving so people were probably still full of turkey.
Looking from the outside, I thought the buffet was going to be fairly small but it turned out to be a massive freaking labyrinth. I was shocked when I walked in. From what I remember, there was an Asian food station, salad, Italian, Mexican, American, MEAT, and SEAFOOD. Dessert is in its own private island in the center of the buffet.
Here's a quick summary/review of what I ate:
-* Lamb chop: AWESOME. My first time having lamb. Perfect and not too cooked or chewy at all.
- Brisket: Oh. My. Goshh. I can't even. It was as good as my favorite slow-cooked brisket my mom stews at home (and she's the best chef I know).
- Prime Rib: Pretty good, but I've had better.
- Sweet Potato Fries: Yummy and sweet but by the time I had been through the lines and got to eat it, it was cold ):
- Mac and Cheese: Why would I get mac n cheese at a 45-dollar buffet? I was craving it, okay! It was nothing extraordinary though.
- *String Beans: Tell me...How in the world could string beans taste so good?! I still can't get over it.
- Lobster Corn Chowder: A little too sweet for me and I couldn't find any pieces of lobster meat in the tiny tray.
- Pretzel Roll: Cold and too tough. The ONLY thing that I legitimately did not like.
- *King Crab Legs: Pre-opened, juicy, delicious, sweet, just hnnnng. Dipped in butter, of course. You can get it hot and fresh from the boiler if you give the server your plate.
- Oyster Shooters: Yummy!
- Raw Oyster: Small but fresh.
- Shrimp Cocktail: The shrimp are larger than normal buffet shrimp. I appreciate that.
-* Creme Brulee: Awesome. The creamy part wasn't too sweet and the sugary top was crisp as should be.
- Macaroons: This was my first time having macaroons so I don't know if it was supposed to be so sweet, but I definitely felt a tooth-ache after a few bites.
- *Cupcake: Strawberry Lemon cream...Perfectly smooth, light, and not too sweet. Loved it!
*Favorites
I tried a lot of little desserts but most were similar and I'm not much of a dessert person in the first place. I also tried a lot more food but the ones I listed were most memorable. Also, I basically skipped all the Asian food because I felt like they weren't worth it for the buffet when I could eat something else.
Rated four stars instead of 5 because of the price and how long I had to wait in line to get food. If they only served the best half of their dishes and got rid of the duds while lowering the price a bit, I would definitely rate this place a five.
Sorry if my review is a bit incoherent. To be honest, the best description I could give you of Bacchanal is the following: SKHLKDHJFLAH HNNG.
That is all. I will probably come back here for my birthday in a few months.
