Between all the 24-hour joints on the Las Vegas, Beach Cafe is a undervalued gem. I have been here for their breakfast buffet and their late night dinner menu.
Location:
Located towards the back of the casino to the side. If you walk past the South Beach Food Court, you are almost there.
Food:
Breakfast brunch: Apparently the going-rate for the brunch buffet in Las Vegas is $19.99+. Here at Beach Cafe, it is a few bucks more. The buffet selection is small compared to the Bellagio or Bacchanal but it has high quality items. You also get OJ, soda or coffee with your meal. The omelette station is awesome!
Late night menu:
Burgers, quesadillas, chicken wings and other stuff! Beach Cafe is usually very dead late evenings, unless there is a convention at the Tropicana. I love their BBQ Chicken Wings (12 wings for $12). It's spicy and there's plenty of meat on the bones. Quesadilla isn't very good plus it's a very small portion.
Service & Ambiance:
Service is good, both brunch and late night. Service employees are attentive and helpful. There's a "fake" Miami Beach atmosphere to Beach Cafe. Palm trees outside and a whole lot of white white white color everywhere.
Overall, the brunch buffet could improve a bit more, but their 24 hour diner is arguably the best bang for your buck on the Las Vegas Strip. It just sucks it's all the way on the south end of the Strip and there's not much else that the Tropicana offers.
