I don't know why there is such a big fuss over the Bellagio buffet. I would choose this buffet over the Bellagio any day, any time. I came to this buffet twice during 2 different years and came out of the buffet feeling overly satisfied. I'm so disappointed this buffet is all the way in Vegas and I'm in Seattle. I'm probably going to have total fat girl dreams about the Rio buffet for months.
I'm pretty sure everyone's favorite part of the buffet is the all you can eat gelato station. I stayed at the Bellagio and my girlfriend and I got a small cup of gelato for almost $5. Here, you get the same size almost and you can eat as much as you want. EFF YEAAAAHHH!! This buffet has a really good selection to choose from, as well. My mouth is literally watering while I think of the mac and cheese and ribs I had. Ugghh!!
Compared to the prices of the other buffets on the strip, this buffet is a pretty good price with an amazing selection. You can make your own tacos, have some Asian noodles and Pho made for you, get some seafood, make a little salad, have some southern / country style food, you name it!
I'll just end this review by staying this: If there is a buffet you HAVE TO / NEED TO / MUST GO TO in Vegas, it needs to be this one. You won't be disappointed and there's something for everyone!
