| - There are certainly a lot of people who think that Red Rock is one of the best local casinos in town and I will admit that it had a lot going for it.
That is, it HAD a lot going for it.
Over the past two years I have watched as this once great Red Rock has slowly soured into a joke that is not at all funny. There seems to be no aspect of this casino that has not deteriorated in quality, with the rare exception of the Yard House (which is not associated with the casino).
But let's keep the focus of this review to the Feast Buffet. I have eaten at the Feast Buffet on a very regular basis for several years, although it had been a few months since I was last there. With some friends in town, it was a good option for a good budget meal, so we went this past Sunday.
First of all, I am supposed to be a VIP of the Station Casinos, with a Presidential status that was earned almost completely at the Red Rock. The President status is supposed to get me a 50% discount on the buffet, but it only amounted to about 25%.
So the Sunday night buffet is $19 per person ($15 after my VIP discount). One would think at those prices, we were about to be pampered with some great food choices.
Boy were we wrong - very wrong.
Let's just sum this all up with a reference that I think we can all relate to - the food quality and choice was what one would expect to find at Sizzler (but of course, at twice the price).
There were less options to choose from than there used to be and what was there was crap, just pure crap. No prime rib, shrimp or crab legs, something they were calling sushi (ha!) and a plentiful collection of some of the cheapest menu items a buffet can offer.
It reminded us of a cattle feed lot, troughs of a food like substance that all tastes the same.
Crap - pure crap!
