| - It's my mothers first time in Vegas so being that I frequent there but never ate at a buffet I had that in mind for the morning. Fast forward. I've walked from the Cosmo to ceasars and I'm tired so we decided to check out mr chow, but we heard some individuals nearby talking about this super awesome buffet, well two of them but knowing how late it was 7:40pm and my mom would not want to deal with one option so we said let's try the buffet.
We walk up and there we were told to check in and wait to be text to enter the line to "wait". I didn't get it but hay, I did it anyway. 39ish min wait and I got a text to stand in line. Now this is where the headache started....
I get to the hostess and there were already people in line and people in an unorganized sort of line, so the hostess said to get in behind a gentleman, she just picked the closet person I guess but that indivudal was with a group of people. So we wait and wait and wait. Now my mother is older so she can't stand for long so I told her after the hour to sit and I'll tell her when to pop back up.
It's two hours and I have a headache and i see some individuals who maybe know the ins and outs of Vegas so I saw them go through with no problem. I'm saying that because I saw the line with the large groups and the line for platinum and whatever else the most celebrated gambler entry was and I noticed certain individuals gojng in pretty quickly. I'm thinking " hay I would also if I knew people here ". Ok now I'm a little close and I'll go further it was 2hrs going 30min before I got to the line. The Buffet closes at 10. It was 936pm when we entered the buffet.
Now we pay and get in another line to wait to enter.
I'm in now and I notice it's a line, a line to wait for food. I have a headache and I'm ready to just go to the room and sleep. The hostess takes us to the table in a dimly lit area but we immediately go to the food area.
I stayed back to wait for a waitress to get a drink or water for my mother and myself.(non alcoholic for this moment, headache). Waitress took forever so I go to one of the lines. I instantly get frustrated because I'm hungry and we waited for so long to finally get food to have to wait again. I walked to another area and just started getting food from there. Still with headache from this whole ordeal. I'm thinking is the $60 bucks worth it !!!!
Food------ ok the seafood was good. The crab legs were cut already so no need to do anything but pick and eat. I was impressed by that.
The waffle fries and chicken, the fries were ok but the chicken was very hard.
Coconut ceviche was not flavored at all, taste like it was put together but the oysters were good. So most of the seafood that was raw and crab legs were ok.
The other food was not that good to me to mention. The dessert and I'm so upset to say this but had no flavor at all. I was soooooo shocked. I had the bubble tea but they ran out of the other ingredient so I still wanted the tea with boba. Only highlight of that moment. I literally picked up every piece of dessert and I was not happy. Oh the candy was good, gimmie bears and the salt water taffy.
Overall I will say maybe it wasn't as good because it was later when we arrived there but I wasn't impressed as many are with the food. Again the highlight was the crab legs being pre sliced. That was a two thumbs up. I was so shocked that the dessert wasn't flavored at all.
Was it worth 60$, no but I guess the crab legs made it worth it. But different variety but what's the point.
