| - Now that my parents live in Vegas, I have a nice place to stay (translation: since I don't have to pay for a hotel anymore, I have more gambling money). Because of this, I don't feel the need to stay on the Strip. That allows me to try out the "local" casinos. South Point is one of those. When my parents are too lazy to cook, we just head over to one of the buffets off the Strip, because they're so cheap. Well, the Garden Buffet is one of those buffets.
Now, first thing's first, with Vegas buffets, you get what you pay for. I've been to some of the $30+ buffets and I've also been to the $6 buffets. Garden buffet is around $7 or $8 dollars on some days and as much as $13-$15 on weekends and special days. Like I said before, you get what you pay for. The quality and selection is that of a cheaper buffet. But that doesn't mean that it's bad. Instead of eating lobsters and steaks, I'm eating Chinese food and shrimp cocktails. I would have to rate the food quality here a little better than average, except for the soup. I've been here about 5 times and the soup always looked a little old. I still tried it and it tasted like it looked. They do have a big selection of desserts and they were just okay. Also, another good thing about coming to a "local" spot is that the lines usually aren't as long. And this place is no exception.
I would definitely come back here partly because the value and the quality is decent. But the other part is for some reason, I always have good luck on the slots here. Knock on wood.
