| - Every time I stay at the Mirage I always end up at Cravings Buffet. They're affordably priced, discounted at Tix4Tonight or free if you play MyVegas. How can you say no to a cheap/free buffet? You don't.
It's not the newest Buffet on the Strip and it's starting to show. Most menu items don't state if they're gluten free or vegan, they don't offer individual plated items like the trendy Wicked Spoon or Bacchanal Buffet, and they'll laugh if you ask for fresh pressed juice. Most of the food here is just average, with me continuing in search to find a menu item to write home about.
With that said, they do have some amazing perks to lure Yelpers who see their 3 star review to stop by. First of all they offer unlimited wine and select beer. Yes, unlimited. It's not an additional $14 per person which is the average around the Strip, it's included in your Buffet price! Compared to the $14-$27 drinks by the pool, it's worth it to stop by Cravings beforehand for a few drinks while enjoying your DIY fruit and cheese plate.
Is it the best buffet in Vegas? No. But compared to prices for alcohol and light snacks in the area, dropping $11 (discounted from Tix4Tonight across the street) for an AYCE buffet, its still a steal. Go in with low expectations and you'll find a few reasons to leave happy. Best of all they do offer a variety of gluten free items and are willing to make anything gluten free if you ask - even pancakes, pizza and fried chicken sliders! Just ask!
