I can only address the Christmas buffet offerings, my only visit to this buffet thus far. Food was excellent in every category I tried. Impossible to try them all in one meal there is so much variety. Highlights for me included the lamb chops with mint sauce and the Alaskan crab legs. The sideboard items such as veal roast and prime rib looked just as good and well prepared. Coconut macadamia shrimp was so well flavored I wished I had saved room for more. The large variety of handmade deserts were just as delicious as they looked. There may be a wait line for the buffet. Very worth the wait and cost considering that many of the items sold individually in a served restaurant in Scottsdale are nearing cost of this buffet. The Christmas buffet is priced higher than other times, but includes three glasses of champagne or mimosas. This was far better than any Vegas buffet at fine hotels I have tried.
