| - I tried every single item they offered, I kid you not! I'm seriously not impressed and think that the $44.99 price tag per person is too much!
This buffet offers pretty much every cuisine you can think of, except Indian. How cool would that be if they had a little naan station though?!?! Anyway, there's nothing really out of the ordinary that they offer. Every station had "American" staples that Americans enjoy most.
Chinese: pecking duck, chow main, dim sum, fried rice. Italian: pizza, pasta, meatballs, Japanese: miso soup, ramen, rolls, nigiri. Stuff like that. The standard fare any buffet pretty much offers. I didn't see anything that stood out or made me feel like... "Damn, this ish was worth $50!
I go to buffets because of the variety. I can't say I ever eat my money's worth, but I really did want to put forth the effort and try everything so I can be as fair as possible in my review.
The crab legs were a total fail as well. It was too salty and overcooked. I love indulging on crab legs during my visits to a buffet, but I couldn't even finish the plate they gave me. *it is nice that they offer warm & cold though.
I'm actually a little disappointed cause the pictures posted gave me a lot of hope! I really thought it was going to live up to all its hype. They didn't offer some of the stuff pictured. I went on a Sunday night if that makes a difference.
I thought their desserts were just ok. I prefer the one at the Wynn for sure. They offered a lot of different pastries, but they looked better than they tasted. The gelato selection wasn't too great, but I did like the baklava flavor! They also had mango chile, which reminded me of those Mexican candies! Yum! There was a crepe station as well.
I didn't experience the service you other yelpers are talking about. My server took our drink orders and that's about it. I was with a party if six and we were stacking plates ourselves pushing them to the side. There was a girl who kept coming to clear them out. She also replenished our drinks. Our server started doing his job towards the end, when we were just about ready to finish up. I paid for my group with CC and wanted to tip with cash after we finished. I don't know if that made a difference, but i'm sure we probably would've received better service if I had tipped upfront. Again, that shouldn't matter, but service was nonexistent for my group.
Overall, I probably won't come back. The quality of the food was better than most buffets, but Wynn would still be my choice. I think ambiance has a lot to do with it as well. The decor at bacchanal was kind of bland. It's modern and sleek, but lacked character.
