| - One of the best buffets I've ever eaten.
Studio B is located about 15 minutes before you get to the strip, so it has to work extra hard or offer special incentives to keep customers happy. I would come back in a heartbeat.
Standouts: crab legs, osso bucco, pistachio mousse, blueberry scone, tiramisu, and banana gelato.
The warm crab legs were outstanding!!! They were much better than Rio. So fresh and delicious. I fell into a crab leg dream state. Our table stopped talking for a good half hour. The only thing you could hear was the hurried ripping of crab leg and the diligent peeling of crab meat. At some point, I ended up with crab meat sprinkled in my hair. Unfortunately, W and P told me that the cold crab legs weren't as good as the warm ones. I suspect that once the warm crab legs have been sitting out for awhile, they're refrigerated and offered cold.
Osso bucco: it melted under the weight of my fork. It was so, so good. Arrghghghgh. Initiate drool sound.
Desserts: blueberry scone had the perfect crunchy crust. The tiramisu and banana gelato was some of the best that I've ever tasted.
Also, I really liked the ambiance. It's not a pretentious buffet like Bellagio or Wynn. It's not pretending to be something else. It's not shoving mediocre food in your face. It's cozy and friendly and warm and it doesn't mind if you take your time.
