| - This place popped my Vegas buffet cherry. And it was a pretty sweet first time.
We were all dying of starvation and heard about the awesome buffets on Fremont street, so we chanced it on the Deuce to see what we could find. We picked the Fremont Casino because let's face it, we were on Fremont street and it was poetic.
Here we got the champagne brunch and I do believe it was $11.80 with tax. Other people here are saying like $7 but I didn't see that at all, maybe I was too smitten with the words "champagne brunch."
I worked on stocking up for the apocalypse at this buffet. I think I had bacon, sausage, eggs, waffles, french toast, and some fresh fruit for breakfast. After that we digested for a few minutes then I had prime rib, mashed potatoes and gravy and then some ice cream for dessert. Impossible? I think not. The french toast was surprisingly good and the sausage was awesome too. Another big plus was the mashed potatoes and gravy, I know I shouldn't fill up on carbs at a buffet but they were SO GOOD! And let's face it, I got my money's worth any way you slice it.
They came around for drinks and I decided to make my own mimosa, ordering orange juice and champagne. I emptied my champagne into my OJ and then when I came back from the buffet again there was more champagne in my glass! Thank-you champagne fairy!
The atmosphere was dark and just funny. It's being paradise and all it was tons of fake plants, but it was so great for a Vegas buffet. We didn't regret our choice at all and we could barley walk when we left. And yes, I would consider that a glowing review lol.
Side note: After rewatching Swingers, yes, this IS the place where Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau go to eat breakfast at the beginning of the movie. If that doesn't sell you, I dunno what does!
