| - Overall, the Paris Buffet is a solid choice. I was fairly pleased.
I will say, however, that of the 4 buffets I visited in Vegas on my last trip (Wynn, Bellagio, Aria being the other 3), it was 4th in line. It just didn't stack up to the last 2 times I was there. It's slipped a bit, to be honest.
The food choices overall was a bit skimpy compared to other lunch buffets (Aria, Mandalay, etc). It's the only buffet I visited where it was pretty easy to get through all the choices and fill up your plate twice (or even once). The choices just weren't as appealing.
The food also didn't appear that fresh (sorta warmed over looking). That was odd to me b/c we were there on as Monday and fairly early (about 1130) so it's not like more than a few dozen ppl had even been through it. The food was a bit "dry" in spots.
The positives were that overall, you'll leave full and fairly satisfied with the meat and other selections. My wife really liked the sole very much! Also, the decor if you sit "outside", is pretty cool (although the painted "cloud" ceilings is overdone between Venetian, Planet Hollywood and the Paris- everyone does it and it's starting to look 90's, hokey and dated). The crepe station I didn't take advantage of (just not my thing), although if you are into that, it did look pretty apealing.
A solid B-. Down from an A- a few years ago. Don't let it slip any further, Paris, or you'll be equal to a run of the mill (Treasure Island) type buffet.
