| - Wow wow wow! Easily one of the best buffets in Vegas! That being said, of course there will be a long wait.. Prepare to wait for at least 2 hours from the time you get the ticket to actually being seated at the table. On a Sat night, we got a ticket at 4:48pm, got a text at 6:18pm, and seated at 6:40pm. It's good that they have a texting system so you can wander around as they make you drop more $$$ in the casino, however, you still have to stand in line for 15-20 mins before you are actually seated. Just keep that in mind so you won't be frustrated and overly excited when you get the text.
But guess what, the wait is totally worth it!!! I've tried Wicked Spoon and Bellagio buffet before. Neither can compare to the Bacchanal. Their choices are diversified and extensive. Most of the dishes, even the spaghetti, are well prepared. I hate to go to a buffet that only has a few items edible. If that's the case, why don't I order a la carte!? Bacchanal did not disappoint me. They make good food from a variety of cuisines, just to name a few, including dim sum (Chinese), sushi and ramen (Japanese), pasta carbonara and macarons and some chef special fine dining stuff (French), tacos (Mexican), soups, sweet potato fries, pizza (American), etc. They also have lots of seafood including salmon, raw oysters, lobster bisque, steamed crab legs (of course!) and even Chinese style stir-fried crab! Not to mention my favorite part, the dessert station, has an extensive selection including pandan cake, macarons of many flavors and mango chili ice cream... amazing!
I'd suggest sample everything before you go for your favorite dish. Most dishes are well prepared. You can tell they do care about each and every dish on the buffet table.
My favorites are :
- made-to-order ramen (you won't believe how good it is until you try it! The broth, the pork and the noodles.. yum!)
- crab legs (eat as many as you can!)
- pasta carbonara (so creamy and smokey!)
- Chinese stir fry crab (very flavorful and the crab meat is juicy!)
- Cream of sweet potato (it's a chef's special that day. I guess they will rotate?)
- spinach with scallops
- salmon mousse (served in a little cup like those complimentary appetizers you get in a fine dining restaurant)
- pandan cake (so soft and creamy)
- macarons (try all flavors!)
- mango chili ice cream (cannot have enough..)
Make sure you wear loose clothing. You're warned.
To avoid: raw oysters. They are bland. I was quite disappointed that they put out bland oysters, those ones that only have a good size but without a personality. The oysters are not spoiled, but they are no blue points or kumamotos. Forget about creaminess, nutty taste or briny aftertaste. Those words don't apply. They just taste flat, like a cheap wine.
Service was excellent! Servers were very nice, polite and attentive. You don't have to worry about dirty plates piling up or empty water glasses. They'll take good care of you. The floor and chairs are very clean too. (There are many dirty buffet restaurants out there..)
BACCHANAL BUFFET IS AWESOME! You get what you pay for. ... new slogan perhaps?
