| - I was wrong to go against Yelp consensus and think this would be okay, but we were given comps for this lunch buffet, so I convinced myself that the Paradise Garden Buffet just suffers in comparison among the Buffet of Buffet-ers.
It's difficult to understand how the same company that has the amazing buffets at Rio and Paris could serve such substandard food at the Flamingo. The food was almost uniformly awful, lukewarm at best, and while we were there, I heard a chef chastising a worker for keeping the temperature too low, which made me afraid to eat any of the meats. I honestly would have rather paid to go to another buffet, any other Vegas buffet I've had was better, including Bally's, which isn't all that great either.
It's a nice space adjacent to the gardens and waterfalls, so I hope that the PGB gets a major refresh as part of the ongoing Flamingo remodel, which is slowly but effectively transforming a lot of their dated hotel spaces into a hipper atmosphere.
