| - I am very picky nowadays to swarm buffets. Healty choices. Selection. Value. Those are what I'm looking for.
This was not my first choice. The first choice had stopped serving All You Can Eat. And we yelped and found this place. Yeah!!!!!
This buffet offered less selection than most in southern California. Being in Las Vegas where the foods are always overhyped, awful tasting, and pricey, this place was not a bad selection for the price. $19.99 for dinner and weekend. I have had better in Rowland Heights, CA for $13.99 with thrice as much selections across the board especially for raw meats (kidneys, stomach, livers, seafoods - 5x more) and Korean appetizers/salads.
OK. Back to Sura. The place was reasonably spacey and clean, with ventilation hub overhanging making silent noises (i.e. not sucking away much smoke either). The wait service was decent during a crowded hours. They did offer once to change the grill top after I've scrubbed it a few times first.
It did offer a few interesting choices that I liked... steamed red bean rice, red bean rice soup, and raw beef tongue. That's it. And they were just good. The rest was just OK. There were only two seafoods, dead shrimp and cut up squids. It also offered the typical meat choices... spicy chicken and pork, rib eyes, thinly sliced steak, and bacon.
The Korean appetizers and salads were a bit boring, with the usual kim chi, and cheap selections. The hot foods section included fried fishes and fried gyoza. The sushi selection was patethic... only 3-4 selections of maki.
If this place is in sourthern CA, I will give it 2-star and I will have many better choices than this. I wonder if it will survive down there actually.
My Caucasian friends enjoyed it very much, being his first. Let the truth be known. We had a good flow of cooked meats going. And Organized.
So diners, you can definitely cook a relatively good meal yourselves in Las Vegas. But this won't be a memorable event once you have left town... Just like the saying... whatever happens in Vegas, Stay behind!
