| - As we drove from Hoover Dam back towards Vegas, I saw the sign for Sunset Station and remembered reading about the buffet, so I decided to stop here for lunch. Large buffets in and around Las Vegas are numerous and this was no exception.

PRICE: On the Friday afternoon we stopped in, lunch was $13 ($12.99) each. If you sign up for their "players card" (free and only takes a couple minutes) that saves you $3 on each person on your group!
SERVICE: Pay as you enter, no surprise there. One thing I found interesting, they asked if I wanted to include the tip now, or leave it at the table. I never had that option before. You are then escorted to a table and are then free to attack the buffet. Our server was very nice and quickly filled our drink order. Though he only checked on us once after that initial visit. Most of the staff manning the buffet stations were pleasant enough, but the woman at the "carving station" must have been having a bad day, as she had an attitude and didn't try to hide it!
FOOD: Like most buffets, there's a good variety of items to choose from:
An American station with a hand carved meat station.

OVERALL: This is not a high-end buffet like you'll find on the Strip in Las Vegas, but that's OK for me. Most things were good, some were bland and "meh", unfortunately a couple things I tried were "OMG horrible", specifically the beef brisket, WAY overcooked, dry, chewy and flavorless, UGH! But then for the price point, I shouldn't expect too much, should I? Should I??? 3 stars A-OK for this one.
