| - First of all, bad news for you crawfish fanatics - they have a notice saying they won't be serving them for the foreseeable future.
I stay at the Orleans a lot because of the gambling and because I get comped (although I'm not exactly a whale - more like a minnow). So I often eat here. This trip I discovered Anton's Secret to Buffeting: try having a meal more like you would in a regular restaurant, that is by courses, or by themes. Usually I sample a bit of everything to make sure I don't miss anything good, but really, this isn't the only time I'm ever going to eat here, so why not be a little more discriminating?
For example, on this visit I had dinner here twice. The first night I did it strictly Mexican. It was not bad but not memorable - maybe the double tequila had something to do with that. On the second night, I had a full course meal: a seafood appetizer - shrimp and clams, a salad, and an entrée of sliced-to-order roast beef with vegetables (although I did sneak in a yummy rib). And pecan pie for dessert (ok - I also had some bread pudding - but how can you go to Las Vegas and not have bread pudding?). All was certainly as good as your average restaurant, but a lot cheaper.
