We weren't looking for something hoity toity.. and we didn't want to spend $50+ for a buffet meal on New Years Day. This was a solid option aside from the long wait that we experienced to get a table. We were disappointed to peek over the wall and find entire sections of 10-12 dirty tables with one busser slowly working each table, as we stood and waited for a place to sit. The drink servers/table clearers do hustle but they are likely overwhelmed with the amount of tables they have. Our server kept up on drinks once we were able to order them.
Our group didn't do the drink package as we didn't feel it was needed or worth it.
The food? It was just fine.. split crab legs, prime rib that was tasty and not chewy, good fried chicken and plenty of salad options/toppings. They tried to do a little of this, and a little of that.. but it's possible that their quality diminishes because of it - ie. Sushi. Sushi shouldn't be on the buffet unless it's an entire station of just sushi and it's made fresh in front of you by a sushi chef. One platter of sushi on the seafood spread is a little scary to me.
Desserts were all delish.. we had cupcakes and cotton candy and ice cream, as well as flan, mousse cups and more.
While in line, I chatted with the ladies in front of me who indicated that they'd been at the buffet a couple of years ago and it was good. I had hope! It's not horrible.. but it's not like some of the top rated buffets on the strip. Of course, it wasn't $65 for a meal either.. :)
